England May Adopt Baseball.
50c and $1.00 at aly Urus Stores.

Baseball has at last obtained firm foothold in England and is being played to such an extent in and around London by Canadians whom the war has brought over that league has been formed among teams drawn from the army pay office and other colonial units, the staffs of the various Cana dian military hospitals and munition workers, the New York Times says.
 With the football season extending from September 1 to April 30, and cricket occupying the summer months. baseball had never been considered se- riously, but since the outbreak of the war, when county cricket was aban- doned, the Canadians have succeeded in arousing such enthusiasm in base ball that its future seems assured.

Nogales, Ariz.-From 200 to 300 Carranza soldiers and camp followers were massacred by Broncho Yaquis Tn Lower Sonora, according to arrivals here. Those of the de facto detacn, ment not killed by gunfire, it was said, were burned at stake
 While reports placed the number Of dead at 309, conservative estimates made on the known disposal of troops near the scene of the massacre put the loss at 200.
 News of the disaster to the Car ranZa force has caused extreme un- rest among the several thousand Yaduis and Mayos now at Empalme. While it is known that large numbers of Yaquis have joined the de facto army, there has been general disbelief that the entire Indian nation, includ- ing the Broncho, or wild Yaquis, have made peace with the Mexicans. For that reason the reports of the revolt and ensuing slaughter generally are credited.
 Gen. Estrada has had several thou sand troops in the Yaqui Valley, hold ing back the Yaquis, and it is believed the opportunity for the reported mas sacre came about when Estrada moved his main command north to Hermosil- To and Magdalena in the course Of mobilization maneuvers.

The most stupendous drainage ahd levee work in Southeastern Arkansas, involving s1,000,000 drainage con tract, the sale of the bonds, the clos ing of the famous Cypress Creek gap
 after years of struggle and even blood
 shed, has begun in Desha county and
 full settlement of all the troubles
 made.
 R. H. and c. A. McWilliams or
 Memphis were the successful drainage
 contractors and have just put nve
 great dredge machines to work to
 build four trunk lines of monstor ca.
 nals each 40 miles in length. William
 R. Compton Company of St. Louis
 purchased the $1,000,000 bond issue.
 Not only Desha County, but Lincoln
 and Arkansas counties on the north and west, Chicot and Ashley adjacent and Northern Louisiana, immediately south, will benefit directly from the
 onnal and leyee work, which embraces 4e0 miles to drain 186,0G0 acres of virgin lands, the richest in that sec tion. It is predicted the land will be increased fiye-fold in value in few years once the job is completed. It will require three years to finish the work
 fhe troubles over the Red Fork and Cypress Creek Gap districts have attracted almost national attention. Three Arkansas Legislatures took a hand, passing special legislation to solve the problem. The first special
 act was passed in 1909 Then the gov ernment had to make survey in 1912, and the 1915 Legislature, at the instance of K. M. Rogers, author of
 the famous Rogers bill, passed another act, and it was not until this was done
 that a solution was in sight. Mean time the leading citizens of Desha had the benefit of the expert advice of the | most eminent engineers, drainage
 and leyee contractors and financiers of the country.
