ny DAMON RUNYON.

Tyrus Raymond Cobb, the now
manager of the Detroit Tigers, is
giving an early display of the tenn
permanent for which he has been
noted all the days Of his big
league life.
Mr.. Cobb says the Tigers might
play the New York Giants a series
Of exhibition games at their spring
training camp in San Antonio, but
not If Bill Brennan Is to umpire the
games.
Mr.. Cobb has a strong memory.
1t was Brennan who was umpir-
ing the game between the Giants
and the Tigers at Dallas a few years
ago when Cobb and Herzog had
their celebrated battle. Brennan
put Cobb QUE, of the game.
Brennan is a former big league
umpire, now long in exile in "the
sticks" because of his activities in
connection with the Federal League.
The big league magnates are as
long on memory as Cobb.
In the spring, Brennan earns a
few dollars and gets himself in con-
dition umpiring exhibition games.
An exhibition game means nothing
at all in the big league schedule.
Brennan, at the most, probably
makes $4,000 year as a minor
league umpire; Cobb is said to be
getting 100000 as a big league man.
ager. In showing his animosity
against the minor league official,
the proud manager of the Tigers
scarcely does himself proud.
The milk of human kindness
seems to have curdled in Tyrus
while the spring is yet a-borning.
Incidentally, Brennan's action in re-
moving Cobb from that game, long
forgotten by everyone else, was en-
tirely proper, and Cobbs present
attitude hardly indicates that he
lends countenance to the main.

Just few short seasons ago the
rival National and American League
fans could point with pride to world

land the big series pennant.

ARIZONA TO bE NEAR MARITIME
 STATE IS PLAN
Phoenix Man Has Con- cession For A Port On Gulf Of California. Be- low Boundary Line To Serve This State

The dream of Arizona of becoming a maritime subdivision of the union is about to be realized through the enterprise of a citizen of Phoenix, Edward Brown, for 16 years a con- tractor of this city. Without her aiding his intentions Mir. Brown has secured from the government of Mexico a concession for a strip of land three miles wide and 90 miles in length along the lower Colorado and the eastern coast of the Gulf of California, the concession extending from the international boundary line below Yuma.
 MT. Brown and his associates pro- pose to develop this concession by the establishment of a harbor on the coast of the gulf, 60 miles below the international line and S5 miles below Yuma There is not a natural bay there, but by means of breakwatei and wharves at that point, deep sea going vessels may be brought tC anchor For this improvement plans already have been perfected and ne- gotiations are already under way.
 This country, says MT. Brown, who returned recently from an inspection of the country included in the con- cession, is rich in agricultural and oi
 
 carries valuable fishery rights.
 The plan is practically to mak' Arizona a seaport state, and that vii not be as difficult as it might appear to those not familiar with conditions It is not generally known that th' United States government is th' owner and operator of railroad run ming along the levee south of Yuma to the Mexican border, so that only { link of SO miles would be necessary tt be constructed to connect the South ern Pacific at Yuma with the port be.
 This connection once established would bring Arizona nearer to East ern ports by 500 miles by the Panam; canal than San Diego now is. Josepi E. Morrison has been retained by MT Brown as geenral counsel for the en terprise in both the United State and Mexico. They will shortly leav' for Mexico City, where the approva of the concession already has beeI promised by President Obregon.
