Ell PASO, Oct. 12.-Delegates to
the International Irrigation congress.
International Farm congress and In
ternationa1 Soil-Products exposition,
which will be held here beginning
Saturday, Will be given an opportun-
ity to contrast the civilization of the
goth century which they will find in
Ell Paso, with the civilization of the
10th century which they will find in
Juarez, Mexico, just across the mar
row thread Of the Rio Grande.
On the one side they will find the
pulsating life which is the dominant
feature OF up-to-date Americanism !:
on the other they will find men and
women live as they lived in Christ's
time, in houses built of bricks made
of mud and straw; using crooked
sticks for plows and bundles of brush
for harrows, reaping their grain with
sickles and threshing it on earthen
floors made of hardened mud over
which herds of ponies or flocks OF
goats are kept in motion in order
that their hard hoofs may separate
the grain from the chaff.
Ell Paso is practically the only city
in the world where a traveller may
pass in so short a time and for a
nickel, into a foreign country where
language, manners, customs, mode OF
dress and styles in architecture are
so absolutely different from the
American conceptions of those details
of life.

BIG GAMES TODAY BASEBALL is ILL
Minor Magnates Will Try to
Doctor 1t Next Week.
Unless Conditions Improve the
Game May Go Dead.

New York, Nov 11.-Sid Mercer,
writing IN the Globe on the annual
meeting of the National Association of
Minor Baseball leagues to be held next
week in New Orleans, says:
The meeting is going to be a mighty
important gathering of several hun
dred men who haYe invested anywhere
from $500 to modest fortunes IN the
bush" sections of organized baseball.
They are the men who raise the flu
ture greats for the major leagues.
1t stands to reason that if minor
league baseball does not flourish a
large number of big towns and small
cities will go out of the business of
producing ball players. The crop of
clever youngsters was a poor one this
year and unless something is done to
relieve the pressure on these small
clubs the developing grounds will be
smaller than ever next season. 1t was
not very extensive last season.
Kinselh Right.
Dick Kinsella, former scout for the
Giants and Yankees, has travelled all
over the country and observed condi-
tons that are changing gradually to
the detriment of baseball. kinsella
formed certain theories a few years
ago, and he has been proving them
ever since as he fits from town to
town.
With a steady decrease in attend
ance and a mounting list of expenses,
the minor league ma gnate is in los
ing fight. The number of clubs in
organized baseball is far less than it
was five years ago, and the financial
losses far outweigh the profits made
here and there. TIE average minor
league club owner is not wealthy. He
cannot afford to operate his club at a
loss merely to indulge hobby.
Salary Troubles
Therefore he is anxious for a new
deal. He wants salaries scaled down
and general expenses reduced so that
he can at least break even. In all ex-
cept the class A leagues, the club own
ers count themselves lucky to break
even in operating expenses. Their
constant aim is to develop one or two
players each season and sell them to
clubs of higher rating A thousand
dollars received as the purchase or
draft price of a player is often the diff
ference between a winning or losing
season.
The problem of making both ends
meet is one that will receive serious
attention at New Orleans. The minor
leaguers seek some concessions in
their relations with the big leagues.
Some of their leaders favor larger
draft prices and easier terms on play
ers turned back by big league man
ayers. The questions of making base
bail more attractive to the youthful
fan; of getting young men starting in
the profession to work for smaller
salaries during their period of devel-
l-opment; of representation on the ma
tional commission of abating the
farming" evils and the unfair COM
petition by clubs that are affiliated
with major league clubs, are just a
few of the issues that will be dis
cussed.

Games in East.
New York, Nov. 11.-Of the many
clashes on the college gridiron of the
east marking the approaching climax
of the football season four might be
indicated as commanding the greatest
public interest the meeting of Prince
ton and Harvard at Cambridge; Yale
and Brown at New Haven; Cornell
and Michigan at Ithaca and Pennsyl-
vania and Dartmouth at Philadelphia.
While these contests are classed as
the leading ones of the day there were
several others which promise to be
fought equally hard and which fell
but little below in point of popular in
terest. The contest between Prince
ton and Harvard might have an i'm
portant bearing on the determination
of eastern championship honors. The
true mettle of these two teams has not
been determined in the skirmishes so
far but both are possessed of ele-
mental strength and a thrilling battle
is expected.
Cornell VS.. Michigan
The meeting between Cornell and
Michigan was the only intersectional
game on today's list and was of inter-
est second only to the game at Cam
bridge. The Ann Arbor team was de-
termined to demonstrate that their
last victory over Syracuse was not
gained by fluke and that its playing
ranks with the best of eastern elevens.
Yale met an undefeated team in
Brown and today's test will be of val
ne in gauging the real merit of the
blue eleven. In Dartmouth Pennsyl-
vania meets no mean opponent. Com
paratively easy games face the Army
and Navy, the former meeting Maine

DILLON IS THRU
Mike Gibbons Gives "Giant
Killer a Bad Beating.
st. Paul Bout Old Time Ring
Affair From Gong to Gong.

st. Paul. Mimi, Nov. lin one of
the greatest bouts ever staged in this
part of the country Mike Gibbons, st.
Paul, handed Jack Dillon, Indianapo-
lis, a neat little trimming. From the
very first tap of the gong until the
last, Gibbons demonstrated that he
was a past master of the fadeaway
boxing. He would rush in, hand the
Indianapolis bearcat a series of
punches and then fade away before
Dillon could get his heavy artillery in
action.
In the first round the men met and
like a shot from the sky Gibbons
landed a right to face. Dillon looked
surprised and started his boxing-in
methods, but to no use. Gibbons
would not stay in one place long
enough for the giant killer to get a
solid smash at him.
Gibbons Too Clever.
In the second round Dillon came up
looking rather disnayed- Dillon in
this round tried mighty hard to land
his famous Knockout blow, but Glib
bons made his attempts look so fool
ish that even the grim Dillon was
forced to smile.
In the third round Dillon seemed
inclined to hang on and clinch. Glib
DOnS IN this rOunQ met the giant Killer
at his own style of boring in. They
mixed in the center of the ring, Glib
bons having all the advantage of the
infighting.
In the fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh
and eighth, Gibbons did all the lead
ing. Dillon would stand in the middle
of the ring and make Gibbons come
to him. At the end of the eighth
round Dillon's face was badly puffed
and Gibbons to this time had not
landed a real hard blow, all Dillon's
attempts going wild.
A Furious Finish.
In the ninth Dillon started rushing
things but Gibbons met his rushes and
outfoughts him. This was the hardest
fought round of the bout and was
about even. The tenth round started
off with a bang, both men trying for
a Knockout. In this round. Gibbons
got careless and Dillon came near
putting over a knockout.
The men were fighting in a neutral
corner. Gibbons turned to get out
and while his back was turned Dillon
landed several hard cracks to the face.
Gibbons fought his way out. This
was the first and orlv round of the
fight that went to Dillon.
