PI1TSFIELD BACK
 IN EASTERN LEAGUE
New London Franchise Granted
 to John E. Ferry

Springfield, Mass, April 11.-Pitts- field again is league baseball town. The Eastern league, at it's meeting at Cooley's hotel yesterday afternoon, &C., cepted the offer of the so-called Pitts field Athletic club for a franchise after a little sparring with Jack Ferry, who represented the Western" city, and Jack returned to his home last night enthusiastic over the pros- poets in bis town. But Terry is no more enthusiastic than the rest of the magnates who arranged their circuit for the coming season, picked the time limits for their playing schedule and handled whatever details are needed before the cham pionship season opens next m onth.
 The circuit includes: Springfield, Worcester, Pittsfeld, Hartford, Prov idence, Waterbury, New Haven and Bridgeport. The last four towns will play Sunday ball. A better way to state this would be to say that all clubs in the league will play Sunday ball as the Providence, Waterbury, New Haven and Bridgeport clubs will have the pleasant duty of competing with a visiting team on the Sabbath.
 Pittsfield had little or no opposition in getting placed in the league. At the start of the meeting the mag mates conversed among themselves and then invited Jack Ferry in to have him explain the situation in his town. Jack made a very favorable impress sion and little time was lost in vot- ing his city a member, succeeding New Lond ion. Ferry will probably serve as Pittsfeld manager, but, of course, the baseball association has not consid- cred a manager yet. But Jack has the inside track and is one of the men responsible for the return of his city to league ball. Holyol1e, Fall River and other towns that had done more or less talking about baseball were not represented and there was no sur prise that those places were without delegates.
 With the franchise, Ferry obtained IA ball players, of whom four have been suspended. There is some doubt about some of the others. While no definite shareholders of the club have been named, it is quite certain that no trouble will be found in getting packers in Pittsfeld. John F. Cooney has promised his support and at the last meeting of the fans enthusiasm was rife and nearly everyone present was willing to do his bit' financially to bring league baseball to the city. The Pittsfeld Athletic association has not yet been formed, but will organize either today or tomorrow.
 The players whom Councilman Ferry received with the franchise follow:
 Lewis Wendell, Earl Champion, { Fred Rieger, Clifford Brady, Henry Bates, Clarence Pickup, Fred Oakes | Walter Hammond, Desmond Beatt1e, Harvey Russell, Pat Martin and the following on the suspended list: J. H. Bemis, Irwin Trout, Hardin Herndon and Robert Messenger. It is under stood that Champion, Wendell, Ham mond and Beattle, anyway, will not be available for the Pittsf1eld club. But the new owners are entitled to all players owned at the time Of the franchise trs nsfer by the New London clIrb.''

JAP BEATS AMERICAN
Kumagae Takes Two Sets From Ricl-l ards in Semi Finals at Pinehursf Tourney.

Pinehurst, N. C., April 11.-Vin- cent Richards and Ichiya Kumagae met in the semi-finals of the men'a singles in the North and South tennia tournament at Pinehurst yesterday and the Jap won in two straight sets. 6-3, 6-2. In the other bracket Wil- liam T. Tilden, Jr. played against SG Howard Voshell and won at the end of an unexpectedly close contest, 6-11 4-6, 7-5.
 It is difficult to say which result caused the greater surprise. 4 fairly close contest between Richards and kumagae generally was anticipated. and even that idea went glimmering when Richards started off by taking the first three games in q. row. Tho Jap served the first game and gave Richards a hard fight for the decision, the game going to IS points, but the next two went to Richards in ouiclq order, the Jap being allowed to win only one point in each of them.

DODGERS EVEN UP
 SERIES WITH TANKS
Gnfith's Hitting and Cheney's TWirling Defeats Higgins Men

Jacksonville, April 1.-The Yan- skces and the Dodgers again are dead Rocked on the series. Tommy Grif- fiths big bat and Larry Cheney's su- perb pitching were too much for the Am erican leaguers here at Southside park yesterday afternoon and the Dodgers triumphed by the score of to 2.
 Much of the sting of defeat to Hug g1ns was taken away by the splendid twiriing of Ernie Shore, who in his maiden debut in Yankee regalia let the Dodgers down with a pair of hits in the three innings One of the hits was an inf1eld scratch which many scored as an error by Ward.
 Jack Quinn started on the mound for Huggins. Though the Dodgers Enicked the veteran for Cnly five hits in five innings Uncle Wilbert's slug gers unloaded their blows when hits meant runs and registered their full complement of six runs during Jacks administration. The Dodgers not only hit Quinn timely but they pounded him hard. A home run by Griffith and doubles by Zach Wheat and son were mixed up In the Brooklyn hit harvest.
 The score:

DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
WATCHING APPLE PACKING

The following letter has been sent
to growers of Stevens county, and
the Examiner is requested to print
it for the information of the public:
"On recent trip to Kettle Falls
and vicinity | regret to admit the
fact that | found in some of the
storage houses apples which were
badly infested with worms and other
troubles which made them of such
a grade that they could not be pass
ed for shipment according to the
present laws in our state, and was
obliged to condemn and order the
same repacked. | hope that you
may assist us in upholding the rep
utation of the fruit from your sec
tion by preventing the shipment of
this class of fruit in giving out such
information as you can, that it is
contrary to law and possibly by adj
vising US Of intending shippers who
are not inclined to live up to our
pieoeHt IeSuIdllOHS.
1--WE have appointed Mr.. L. X.
Batson as Horticultural Inspector for
Stevens county and he is already in
the field performing his duties. He
will visit growers in the county and
give all the information possible in
connection with the grading and
packing of fruit which can be ship
ped under inspection regulations. 1t
is our aim to demand that only clean
fruit be shipped. The price which
growers are receiving for fruit this
year is such that they can afford to
pack clean package and on the other
hand the consumer, after paying the
price which he is obliged to for the
package of apples, is surely entitled
to value received. There is a good
market for the Gull apples this year
at very remunerative figure, which
should prevent anybody trying to
mix them with their better grades.
"Any fruit which does not come
up to the standard must either be re-
packed by the grower or else the
same will be condemned and disposed
of as directed by law. Growers can
secure copies of the Law and Grad
ing Rules of Mr.. Batson or directly
from this office and | hope that all
will give assistance in putting out
a high grade of fruit this year. With
kindest regards | remain, yours very
truly, NJ. l.. Dean, Chief, Division
of Horticulture.

FIRST THOUGHT PREPARING
FOR DEVELOPMENT

o. J. Smith of Spokane and John
B. Slater Of Colville went to Orient
this morning with party Of asso-
ciates to inspect the First Thought
mine which will open for active work
before the first of the year. Herbert
Bowen of Spokane, who has been
associated with v. d. Williamson,
and is concerned in large measure
in the financing Of the reorganization
Of the FIRST Thought, has been in
Colville this week and went with the
party to the mine.
The First Thought mine comprises
141 acres of patented ground two
miles east of Orient, and is de-
veloped mine. The mining equip
ment and plant consists of fifty
horse power oil engine, mechanically
driven mine pump, oil engine hoist
and ventilating equipment, machine
drill attachments, rails, cars and ac-
cessories, machine and forge shop
with 10000 feet of wire tram con-
Meeting with the Great Northern
railway at Orient.
The workings of the mine, so far
as ore production is concerned, have
consisted in mining from the surface
downward, along an ore shoot
through a lateral extent of 200 feet,
vertically 220 feet and having an
average width of about as feet. The
ore from this mine has been about
10000 tons taken from an excess of
$500 feet of cross-cut, drift, upraise
and stope in the workings Of. the
mine and practically all Of the dis
placement has been ore fit for ship
ment excepting about 5000 tons of
ore which has been conserved in the
dumps awaiting the erection of
mill especially designed for its treat
ment on the ground, the grade being
slightly below the values necessary
to cover freight and treatment. OF
the ore extracted and shipped the
gross product of gold values reached
an Approximate of three quarters OF
a million dollars, about half Of which
was net profit and distributed in
profits to the stockholders. The ore
will run in value above ST in gold
The Colville examiner. [volume] (Colville, Wash.) 1907-1948, 1919-10-04

and one ounce silver to the ton, there
being no other metal values. A mill is
projected to be built in close prox-
unity to the mine designed to treat
300 tons per day at cost of about
S6 per ton for mining and treatment,
as against an estimate of $3.50 per
ton for freight and treatment in
cluding mining and training, effect
ing saving to the dividend account
of. more than half the former ex-
pense when the mine was in the
stages of development. Mr. Andrew
Gorden French, mining engineer
Of high standing, formerly of Glas-
gov, Sheffield and Swansea, has
written: "The geogical features of
the mine-the First Thought are
very interesting and the evidences
that it was at one time a large ther-
NAL outlet are very apparent, and
it bears great similarity to the
Great Waihi Gold mine, in New
Zealand, both in the character of it's
laminated quartz and the fneness of
the gold, and from a commercial
point of view it is perhaps more
important to note that the richness
of the ore produced from the New
Zealand Waihi yields from 92.16 to
the same f3.5 per ton, say SIS over
a period of some twenty years to
the writer's knowledge. There are
other characteristics in which this
mine agrees with the Waihi. The
ore body is of great width and it's
volcanic origin is warrant that it
will go down to great depth"
According to well authenticated
reports, the Waihi mine of New
Zealand, up to 1916, in twenty years
had paid in dividends, on "a run of
Il days in month, S18,S00,000 Mr..
French, who has examined both
properties, is of the opinion as in
dicated that the First Thought is,
in fact, mining property of even
greater possibilities than the Waihi.
The First Thought is situated at
an elevation Of about 1000 feet above
sea level and over 2000 feet above
the Kettle river valley level about
one mile distant The advantages
for economical operations in mining
can be established by the construc-
tion of tunnel with a series of un-
derground workings, ventilation and
automatic equipment for taking the
ore from this great depth.

HISTORY OF YEP-KANUM

Early in the 18th century Father
st. Pierre came from the north with
party of Hudson Bay traders and
established a mission and trading
post on the banks Of the mighty
Columbia river near the present
town of Marcus. Soon after arriving
there, they were invited to attend
celebration being held by the Kelto-
to-ko-tewis (Colville) Indians in the
beautiful Colville Valley near the
present city of CoIville. Father st.
Pierre in his writing says: "The
powerful tribe called Kelto-toko-
tewis (Colville) Indians were then at
peace with all neighboring tribes and
as providence had been lavish that
year in providing rains, there was
plenty of grass for the horses, the
hill country abounded in game, the
streams teemed with fish, and the
Indians were celebrating the bounti-
full season with feasts, dances, sports,
races, games, the giving of presents,
and exhibiting the results Of the
chase This event they called the
YEP-KANUM. No word in the
English language expresses to the
whites what this does to the Indians.

occasion, the beautiful setting, the
