LIKE AN ANCIENT FORT.
Mexico's Spiked Mountain a Curious
Geological Freak.

Mexico's Spiked Mountain a Curious
Geological Freak.
One of the most remarkable geolog-
ical freaks in Mexico is a mountain
situated near Pachuca, which presents
tie appearance at a distance Of being
covered with spikes. The sides Of the
mountain are closely studded with
stone columns or palisades. These COL
umns are five feet to twelve feet long
and as large around as an average
mans body.
|. It Is remarkable uplift of nature,
which has the appearance, however, of
being the handiwOrk of human beings.
One side of the mountain is Utmost
perpendicular, and the stone columns
protrude from the surface at right
angles, forming an impressive picture
Pachuca is one of the most noted
mining districts in Mexico, and it is
said by biologists that this remarkable
spiked mountain is out of keeping with
the remainder of the formation Of the
mineralized region.
The stone is as hard as flint and has
withstOod the elements for ages. The
spikes form a natural battlement that
makes the mountain appear from a
distance like some ancient fort.
The mines Of the Pachuca district
are situated not far from this wonder
full freak of nature, but the forma-
ton encountered in their respective
! underground workings is Of an entire
ly different kind from that of the
palisade Weekly.

Tonight at the Grand theater will
be shown the Triangle program. H.
B. Warner will be shown in "The
Raiders" and Fred Mace of musical
comedy fame will be shown in IAN
Oily Scoundrel."
H.. b. Warner, who is starred in
1.-The Raiders" begins the story as a
junior clerk in brokers' office. From
afar he wOrships his employers
daughter, never dreaming that his
chance to win her is so close at hand
1t comes when Haldeman, the bro
ker, goes away to the Adirondacks
for brief rest, leaving his affairs
in the hands, of his broker, Burnes.
Burnes is schemer and he at once
plans to get control Of the Haldeman
stocks. But first he dispatches two
henchmen to insure Haleman's stay
ing away in the mountain camp un-
til the deal is put through.
Haldeman duly is prevented from
getting away, and, miles from civ
ilization, he sees no chance of rescue.
But Warner, in the role of Scott
Wells, the brokers' clerk, has over
heard some details of the conspiracy,
so, with the assistance of Haldeman's
daughter, Dorothy, he takes the place
of Haldeman on the floor of the ex-
change and fights Burnes to finish.
Then, having handicapped Burnes so
he can do no more mischief, he goes
to the rescue of Haldeman in the
mountains.
The speedy trip which he makes
with Dorothy in high-powered car
is filled with thrills of the first or
der, while the rescue itself is as tense
as guns and desperate men can make
it. What happens when Holdeman is
put back into his place of power is
something more than poetic Justice
the film finishes with smashing sit
uation of rare power.

NE " LEADERS To
PROMISE To GIVE
CLEAN BASEBALL
Infusion of New Blood Expect
to Bring About Great
Improvement in
BY Frank G.. Mcnke.

NEW YORK. March 13.-The IN
fusion of new blood into the MOgul
arteries Of the national game surely
will bring about a marvellous i'm
provement in baseball.
Those who support the pastime
long ago grew tired Of the old
regime They sour especially on the
old national league regime which
staged some disgusting drinking
bouts with ach Of it's meetings. 1t
wearied of the loud-mouthed. and
blatant owners for merely connect
ed with the leagues. II wanted TO
see clean cut business men hand
ling baseball-not wine and whisky
connoisseurs. not men who can out
talk a prize fight manager.
The hopes Of fandom are being
realized. There are many new faces
among the owners of the National
and American league clubs-and
they are faces good TO look upon.
The newcomers are sportsmen-
clean, honest, square. There re-
main in baseball several men who
are termed in some circles as "un-
desirables," who must move out.
They must give way to men who
can uplift the game-can give it
dignity in it's executive handling.
The National league is TO be con
graduated because il has added to
it's rank OF magnates this year such
citizens as Percy HaughtOn, owner
of the Braves. and Charles WEIGH
man, who controls the Cubs. They
are the kind men who who add dig
nifty and power to any organization.
William F. Baker, owner of the
Phillies: Harry Hampstead. boss of
the Giants and Schuyler Britton, the
Cardinal magnate-they, too, are of
the Merchandising type; men
who conduct themselves always as
gentlemen and sportsmen: men who
can be relied upon to work always
for the best interests of the game
they represent.
That quintet Of National leaguere
portray the ideal base ball leader
and all are comparative newcomers

their numbers increased
