"Well folks, things are looking up for Kingman, Chloride ct al again" !" said Doe" the Duck today. Probably 1 should have reversed the order of things, for Chloride certainly grabbed off all the glory in the world the Fourth. But Kingman is entitled to a little credit for sending over such a good-sized aggregation just for fear all the Chloriders wouldn't turn out.
 "Of course, Chloride wouldn't have shined so well if it hadn't been for Kingman and other outside communi- ties furnishing the victims. I refer esoeciall to Jess Orndorff's alleged ball club and a certain outsider ealing himself a wrestler.
 Some one suggested the other day that Orndorff should scrap his az gregation and sell it for junk. But that would be rather harsh, don't you know.
 By the way, has anybody heard anything from the board of supervis- ors lately?

COULDN'T FOOL HER

There is an old woman living in a small town in southern Pennsylvania who makes a great effort to keep abreast of the times. Herf opportuni- ties, however, are circumscribed and she is sometimes compelled to resort to her imagination. She went to a church sociable lately, and as she en- tered the room one O fthe attendants said:
 Good evening, auntie. am glad you came. We are going to have tableaux tonight"

Visit I.X.L. Mine
 At Stockton Hill

Yesterday Col. Beveredge and oth- CTS visited the I. X. L. mines, in the Stockton Hill section. The party came to Kingman and remained over night
 The I. x. L. is one of the best situ- ated mines in the camp, being contig- uous to the Wrigley. It was one of the best producers of high grade silver ore in the county in the old days, hay ing shipped large tonnage to San Francisco and also to the Mineral Park mill. With the shaft sunk below the break in the vein we expect to again see it in the producing list of the county.

COAST LEAGUE HEAVY
 SLUGGERS SLUMPING

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, July 2. - With the approach of mid season for the Pacific Coast baseball league and the warm weather aiding in limbering up the pitching arms of the various moundmen, batters are slowly reced- ing from the heights of a 400 per cent batting average. Bassler of Los An geIes, who has been in the lead among the regular players and was the last to step out of the 400 class, fell 10 points further away according to the unofficial averages given out for the 18th week. He has dropped to 357. At the end of the 11th week he was batting 402. At the present rate of retrogression he is likely to lose his position as the leading batsman of the league before many more weeks.
 Fitzgerald, of San Francisco, who has been holding second place came up II points, making his average 347 so that only ten points separate the two players. At the end of the 11th week Fitzgerald was 68 points behind Bassler.
 The men who made the biggest gains during the week were R. Miller of Oakland who jumped A points and Hoff of Salt Lake who made a gain of 65 points. Williams of Portland still retains a comfortable lead of ten home runs. Sheely of Salt Lake, with 2 is his nearest competitor.
 A player on an amateur team who made three base hit in the last half of the ninth inning of baseball game and thereby won the contest has been robbed of the personal glory which usually goes with such feat. The
