FL PASO TAKES BALL
 GAME FROM BISBEE
SCORE WAS SEVEN TO TWO WITHOUT ANY
 TROUBLE.
sisbee Battery Did Splendid Work, But Support Was Bad in Some In. stances-Notes of the Game.


 In a cold, biting wind, accompanied by d-izzling ram, the Fl Paso Grays batted otu a victory from Bisbee at Athletic Park Sunday afternoon. The game was probably witnessed by a hundred and fifty people. only few of the most faithful of the fans" daring to face the rain and cold which con tinued throughout the entire game.
 The fielding of both clubs was re- markable. considering the weather and the high wind which made the judging of long fly almost impossi- ble. Throwing to bases was more or less guess work also, as witnessed by the performance of Jacoby on two diff ferent occasions, when he lost the ball in the bleachers twenty feet be- hind first base. in endeavoring to cut the runner off at the initial bag.
 The work of the Bisbee battery was of high order. In Knight and Nal com Bisbee can give a good account of herself in any pitchers battle, but a pitcher can not win by himself and without the proper support. The playing of Flannigan on third base was decidedly yellow, and it is in the air that he is to be played on the bench in the future for his perform ance last Sunday Third base is 100 important a position to trust Flanni- gan there. He don't play the game fast enough, and is not certain to get everything that comes his way unless II is right in his init. But, the season is young yet. and marked improve ment may be expected during the next six weeks. Considering that only three games have been played, this end of the Territory is playlns excep- tionallly fast ball. The score by games is as follows:
 Bisbee vs. Douglas, at Douglas, April 9; score in favor of Douglas, s to 2.
 Douglas vs. Bisbee, at Bisbee, April 16; score in favor of Bisbee, to 1.
 Fl Paso vs. .Bisbee, at Bisbee, April %; score in favor of Fl Paso, ' to 2.
 This is playing good ball, and in sure good crowds when the weather will permit.
 Bisbee clubs needs strengthening in more than one position if Manager Sowles expects to win the medal for 1905. As an old fan" said, as he drew his overcoat around him and snuggled up close to the grand. stand at the game last Sunday;
 Will somebody please tell me why Henry is not playing second base this year? The old brigade of rooters want him back in the game. He is a clever second baseman, and besides can be depended or to hit the ball"
 In the game last Sunday Bisbee got five hits off of Sprfntz, the Fl Paso twirler, while the Fl Paso aggregation got away with nine hits off of Knight.
 Knight struck out fifteen men and Sprintz struck out nine.
