PEGGERS HAVE FINE NEW
BASEBALL PARK

Tie Maroons will have their grounds
this year in connection with the new
amusement enterprise, known as Hap
pyland," which, is being constructed
at Winnipeg.
The following is clipping from the
Manitoba Free Press: Arrangements
were completed between the manage
ments of the Winnipeg Baseball club
of the Northern-Copper Country clubs
, league and the management of the
new West End Amusement park, Hap
pyland. whereby the professional ball
games will be played at Happyland
this coming season. The new park
will open on May 81, according to the
present plans of the promoters, which
will be three days after the opening
of the league season. The maroon
management, however, has arranged to
use River park until the new park is
ready, which means that the opening
game of the season will take place at
the old ball grounds, on May II.
Grand Forks will be the opposing
team in the first series, and it is be-
lieved that after the first series is COM
pleted Happyland will be ready for the
Maroons, when another opening will
take place.
THE new ball park will be up-to-
date in every particular. 1t will have
a grand stand to accommodate 5000
people, while bleachers will be erected
tLsseat 1000 more. The stands will be
of the latest pattern, and fitted with
every convenience for the public The
diamond will be laid out by an expert,
pointing from northwest to southeast.
Dressing rooms with shower baths and
other appurtenances will be put in for
the players"

Might Build a Roof.

! A local citizen Of prominence who
received a thorough wetting at the
Great Northern depot this morning,
and whose mind was naturally biased
on the subject. suggested that Jim
Hill might build huge glass arch
roof over his trains to keep passengers
boarding and alighting from getting
wet, so long as he intended to build
an addition to the depot anyway. The
suggestion, according to others who
listened, was not altogether amiss.

team that the fans are. losing inter-,
est and don't seem to care rap
whether they are signed or not" And
again, the same paper breaks out as
follows: Bill Hanrahan leaves to-
night to join the Winnipeg team at
Minneapolis. A Grand Forks team
without Hanrahan will seem queer"

On the strengths of the reports that
the Great Northern is to spend some

port has gone out several times, and
