SIX HURLERS
P
Rex Ames ol Chicago Ar-rives-Casey's
Colts Now
Number Twelve - Boys
Working Out
(By Will G. MacRae.)
Hex Ames, another member of
Manager Casey's pitching staff, re
ported this morning, making six Hurl
ers in the training camp, and from
the way these hopeful curve-tossers
go into action the Portland magnate
vill have his work cut out for him
vheu he reaches the point of sclect
ing those he will keep on his pay
roll. Ames did not arrive in time to
get into uniform this morning, hut if
appearances count for anything this
youngster looks to have the goods.
Twelve of l tic hopefuls, including
Casey, were out to the ball ground
bright and early this morning nnd
put in two hours of hard work. The
weather was simply made to order
and under the generous warmili of
the sun all of the pitchers limbered
up. The workout was a stiff one,
considering most of the players were
just off the train, and from now on
rntil a week has passed there will he
a bull tendency in the sore muscle
market.
Early Yet in Game.
It is altogether loo early to get
much of it line on the halltossers.
Manager Casey will try out, and it
will be several dnvs before he will
fall upon the members of his train
ing crew to get down to playing in
side baseball. Looking oxer those in
uniform this morning during the pre
liminary workout, it is sate to say
that Casey will have splendid mate
tial from which to pick Ins team.
There isn't a dead one among the
crew on the contrary. Manager Ca-s-ey
has to keep them under wraps.
They are gluttons for work, and left
to their own devices they would work
their heads off. This is true of the
pitchers. Pender, Gardner, Oshum,
Coleman and McFarland all took a
turn in the box, and in spite of the
fact that it was only practice, these
box artists were making use of the
curve and the smoke bull and putting
ns much steuui behind their deliv
eries as thev would along about Julv.
The Infield Work.
Swnntou, Mullen and llisley were
put through a few infield turns by
Casey. Mullen, if things break well
tor him, will make Casey a smashing
initinl sacker, and Kisley handles
himself like a ballplayer who knows
his business. Swanton found the in
field a new hook, but his work while
he was in the outfield was pleasing.
Certainly the team could not hope
for finer weather or a more splendid
ly arranged clubhouse nnd grounds.
Right now the accommodations are
head nnd shoulders better than those
. PnT.ii,..wi ...
nig the grounds or the elttbhous
use with
the conditions at San Luis Ohisp.
where MeCrcdie has his Const league ,
training camp.

LOW GRADE ORE FOUND
OVER NEAR MERRILL
MKIililLL. Or, March 'J.i. -"Ithclt
mining district" is the name
by which the section in which gold
discoveries have been made near this
city is known. Hundreds of claims
have been staked, but no rick strikes
are reported. Development work is
in progress on the original discovery
and the indications arc encouraging.
The ore is still of a low frra.de, aver
aging perhaps $11 lo the (on, but if
this grade is found in a large body,
il will be an immensely rich mine.
: it is an ideal location, being con
venient to both water and fuel.
'flu discoveries are located on the
ridge between the Lower Klamath
lake nnd Tule lake, just across the
California line. The formation ap
pears to be a sort of an upheaval and
is of a different character than the
lava roek found in the surrounding
district. The discoveries will be
thoroughly prospected and their
worlh wilt he determined within a
