TNENTY-ONE RUNS AND SIXTEEN
 ERRORS MADE BY LOCAL. TEAMS

Goodness gracious. but it is hard to say it, Yes, very hard, for the score was only IS to 3. which after all wasn't such bad game, no not so very bad; it might have been worse. Such things have happened. Which teams? Why, the White SoN annihilated the Outlaws yesterday by that exact count
 And as for errors. this parody on the only game was as full of them as German soldier is of fleas. There were exactly l6 of them all together. with the Outlaws making F of them. Too bad they didn't win.
 The management of the Outlaws lays il on the new help The team has been badly shot to pieces in the last few weeks, due to the thinning of the veteran ranks. Not that the manager has any designs on Connie Mack s title as a regular break up fiend, but his men just driftcd or got married. The new men who were imported to play yesterday did not measure up to the standards required. and when the smoke of the massacre had blown away. there was wailing ana gnashins of teeth in the bandit camp.
 Following is the box score.

Ten per cent zinc blende is be-
ing recovered from dirt that is
being taken from the west field
shaft of the Nakutska Mining
Company property, located on
the Grace Sacto Walker land, five
miles southwest of Baxter Springs.
Operations at the west shaft
are conducted at a depth of 243
feet. A face of the rich stuff
about IL feet in height is being
mined and it is known to continue
down another five feet, but it
cannot be mined at present on ac-
count Of the water. Two four
inch steam pumps are being used.
At the northeast shaft operations
are carried on at a depth of only
220 feet. The concentrate is
slightly better than 60 per cent
metallic zinc, and about two tons
of lead are being made per shift.
The Mahutska is owned prin-
cipally by s. Y. Ramage and, as
usual, with his plants, the mill is
thoroughly modern and complete.
1t was built for him by W. M.
