a TOUGH JOB 10 ELL.

It would seem that the tough
est job in the National league to
fill is that of first baseman for
the Pittsburgh club. Since 1905,
when Barney Dreyfuss traded
Kitty Bransfleld, the present Ma
tional league umpire, then rated
as one OF the best first sackers In
the game, to Philadelphia for Del
Howard, twenty men have had
fling at the position, and none has
made q real success of 1t. In try
ing to find a man for the job,
Jimmy Callahan has undertaken
4 task which was handed down to
him by Fred Clarke.
Since Bransfleld was shipped to
the Phillies, twelve years ago, the
following players have, at one
time or another. held down first
base for the Smoky City crew:
Del Howard, Homer Htldebrand,
Bill Clancy, Joe Nealon, Al
Storke. Harry Swacina, Warren
Gill. Jim Kane, Bill Abstein, Jack
Flynn, Ham Hyatt, Bud Sharpe,
Fred Hunter, Bill McKechnie,
Jack Miller, Ed Konetchy, Doc
Johnston, Hans Wagner, Bill
Hinchman and Warren Adams.
Adams, the youngster claimed by
the Pirates from the Robins on
waivers, and later reclaimed by
the Robins and sent to Oakland,
was the latest prospect to ''fiiv-
YER" and Callahan has been
forced to send Hinchman back to
the initial sack until another cam
didate can be dug up.

FINDS BRIGHT
| CROP PROSPECTS
In North Dakota is Report
of President Penning-
ton, of 500 Line.

Minneapolis, May 9.-Pres. Edmund
Pennington OF the 500 line, back from
western trip, said that North Dako-
ia has a fine crop prospect.
While 1t is too early for comment
Of much value, other than acreage in
crease estimates. it is apparent, he
said, the farmers have planned more
extensive operations.
This may not show in wheat acreage
increase to the extent that might have
been expected had the agitation for a
big crop been started earlier, he said,
but it will appear in rye, oats, barley
and other crops, and to some extent in
corn.
Western Canada is late" Mr.. PEN
nington said. There was too much
cold weather and wet and too many
alternate SHOWS and thaws to permit
an early start. This is not necessarily
serious condition. So much depends
on the weather of the growing season
proper that it would be useless at this
early date to make predictions.
Good Weather Advances Crop.
"A late start naturally suggests q
late crop and frost damage as q posi-
bility, yet the right kind of June and
July weather might advance the crop
so greatly as practically to overcome
the handicap of a late start"
Mr.. Pennington said general business
conditions are good in the west and
that activities seasonable at this time
are in progress. There is no trouble
in financing increased crop acreages
he said, as the bankers and country
merchants are as anxious as anyone
that there shall be a big harvest.
Seed trouble has been experienced. to
some extent, but by cooperation be-
tween the various interests this has
been generally overcome.
Where farmers were unable to plant
wheat they have changed their plans,
and should there come from any state
or other authoritative source, in the
near future, an estimate showing a
smaller wheat increase than expected
1t would mean the appearance OF other
grain areas instead, as the farmers
have changed plans to meet the situa-
ton.
Becomes Roads Head. 81
Mr.. Pennington was elected presi-
dent of the Spokane & international
Railway Co. while in Spokane, sue
ceeding D. c. Corbine, who retired. He
was also made president of the Occur
d'Alene & Pend d'Oreille road.
The first named property, extending
from Spokane to Eastport, Idaho,
which is opposite Kingsgate, Alta,
connects with the Canadian Pacific.
The Spokane & International is 140
miles long. The last named comprises
two branches, % and IL miles in
length, respectively, the entire property
comprising i73 miles. t' ..' So.

1lIlnOl. Holds Island ON Missouri Side.


Kaskaskia island, scene of the oldest
settlement of white men in the Missis-
sippi valley and once the provincial,
territorial and state capital of Illinois,
of Illinois, although it now is actually
part of the Missouri mainland, sew
entY miles south of st. Louis, accord
ing to a decision by the Illinois SUI
preme court, The st. Louis Post-Dis-
The court holds that, when a river,
constituting the boundary line of q
state, changes its course, 1t does not
transfer. land from one state to an
other. -,s
When the Mississippi river, two years
ago, shifted it's channel to the east OF
Kaskaskia island, the shallow, watery
Missouri shore began drying up, some
residents of the island announced that
they expected to awake any day. and
find themselves voters in MISSOURI.
The shallow water since has dried up,
the island is now actually part of the
Missouri mainland, and the residents
have even been getting their mail
from a Missouri postof1ce-St Mary's.
John Hinck came into possession OF
"EIinck's island in an interesting way.
Originally the Mississippi flowed south
and west of Grains island, which Is
owned by Mael Randolph. 1t was sur
veyed as a part of Illinois. The river
shifted and cut off corner of Grains
island The main channel for time
ran between the two.
In 1896 the steamer Belle of Memphis
sank in the main channel The soil
from Grains island washed down to
the steamer and an island was formed
in the main channel where formerly
Grains island had extended.
The new island by 1898 had formed
solidly around the sunken steamboat,
Hinck purchased the old vessel in 1901
and made his home there, taking pos
session of the land.
The court holds that, although part
OF Grains island was submerged for a
number of years before Hinck's island
was formed, the land still belongs to
Grains island.

Euell brought two sugar bowls from

Thomas f. Logan in LeSlies: war
prosperity has doubled the number OF
our citizens having annual incomes OF
$40, 900 or $780, 900 in the past year as
compared with the year previous.
The receipts from their ind
vidlfal income tax show an IN
crease of $27,000,000, the total for
the year ended June 80 last be-
ing $67,943,294. According to the esti-
mates of the commissioner of internal
revenue this will be raised during the
current year to Sill, 100000. New York
paid one-fourth of all the corporation
income taxes and nearly one-half or all
the direct income taxes collected last
year. In the latter respect 1t yielded
nearly FIVE times as much as Pennsyl-
vania, nearly six times as much as 1It-
nois, more than seven times as much
as Massachusetts, and eight times as
much as Ohio. The five states named
paid four-fifths of the income tax COL
iected in the United States. One hun
dred and twenty Americans have in
comes OF 81 100000 or more year, not
counting income from capital stock.
New York supplied seventy-four and
Pennsylvania ten. New Jersey and
ohio follow, with seven and six, re-
spectively, while Connecticut, Delaware
and Illinois have four each. OF the
southern states having residents with
incomes of $1,000,000 per annum, or
more, the returns give one apiece to
Georgia, Missouri and Oklahoma.
