RlSBEE TEAM TRYING TO SECURE SHELTER CITY BOYS AT
 DON LUIS.
5isbee May Participate in Albuquerque Ball Tournament for $500 Prize. Cananea Wants Bisbee on 16th-lo- cal Sporting Notes.


 If negotiations that are underway are successful Bisbee will cross bats on the Don Luis grounds Sunday after noon with the Douglas team. In this event is should be one of the best con tests the local diamond has afforded during the season.
 Cananea went from here to Douglas and at that city on Monday played the smelter boys, winning in a twelve inn ing game that spelled speed from start to finish. Douglas in the course of the proceedings proved herself to be equipped with an exceedingly handy bunch of players. They put up bet ter go than did Bisbee team on Sun day, and it would look as if they should be able to make things exceed ingly interesting for Bisbee if they come here on Sunday.
 However, the Bisbee team is conf dent that with another show at Cana nea it will reverse the situation so far as that team is concerned, and like wise confident that in meeting with Douglas on next Sunday the score will show winning for Bisbee. This con fidence is based on the declaration Nndl DlSDSt was uD dSdluSl II Ou AdSL Sunday because of lack of practice, and nothing else. A couple of practice games are to be played this week; and these. with the experience of last Sun day the home team members are con fident will put them in shape to out play anything in the Southwest.
 Bisbee ball team may go to the Ter ritcrial Fair at Albuquerque to contest for the prize offered in the ball tourn- ament that IS on the program for the fair. The prizes offered are worth go- ing after, and will undoubtedly at tract a numDer or teams. S1,5UO goes to the team that finishes at the head Of the list in the tournament. S1 ,00o goes to the second and $500 to the th.rd team. These prizes are the largest that have ever been offered for base ball exhibitions in the South west and are decidedly worth going after
 Though nothing definite has been decided upon by the Bisbee boys with reference to entering the contest the matter is under serious consideration
 Cananea has written to the city in Iendeavor to get game with Bisbee at Cananea on the 10th, Mexican Inde- pendence day. The home team is yet undecided as to whether it will go down, but the probabilities are that it will. The day is to be observed elab- orately at Cananea. Beside the bal game there will be a number of other sporting features on the program and a big time is assured.
