MARTINS EYES OPEN WIDE

Santa Fe will have gala day next
Sunday. Positive information has been
received that an excursion from Albu-
querque will bring 800 visitors to the
city, and one from Las Vegas will bring
a like number, so that the hotels and
citizens must be prepared to receive and
entertain at least 600 people. The oc-
casion of their coming is the baseball
game to take place at 2 o'clock on next
Sunday between the Las Vegas and
Santa Fe clubs. Both trains will arrive
about 1890 in the morning. A hot con-
test may be looked for. Las Vegas is
very much encouraged by the exploits
of its adroit pitcher Faherty on former
occasion. 1t is not known yet whether
Col. Twitchell will generously attempt
to donate the services of this star per-
former to Santa Fe, but it is certain
that Manager Martin of the Santa Fe
team has lost is milk teeth and has his
eyes opened, so that appeals to his SYM
pathetic heart will not again overcome
his judgment. Once upon q time an
Irishman, with litter of pups whose
eyes were not yet open, offered them for
sale to Protestant clergyman with the
assurance that they were fine Protestant
pups, but the reverend gentleman would
not purchase. A few days later when
the young CANNES eyes were open the
Irishman offered them to a Catholic
clergyman telling him that they were
fine Catholic pups. The priest asked
Patrick how that could be when but a
few days before he had said to the mi
mister that they were Protestant pups.
Patrick replied, "Geb see, yer rivirince,
at that tonne, there oies were not yet
opened" Manager Martin knows a
thing or two now.
Col. Twitchell announces that he is
coming after the ball and will get it.
There will be little debate on this SUBJ
iect however, and Santa Fe does not
propose to let Las Vegas win more than
one game in thaee years. A royal bat
