weather man to make II disagreeable
for the fans a fair number were i'm at
tendance at the base BAH grounds last
Saturday when the base ball season
for 1906 was opened. And they were
not disappointed i'm the games. AL
though il cannot be denied that the
first game seemed to drag a little and
seemed to be unable to hold the atten-
ton of the crowd yet it was a game
that was full of exciting incidents and
individual playing that was good. The
second game was very well played con-
sidering that it was one of the first OF
the season. on the whole the fans
were well treated and seemed to think
that they had their moneys worth.
According to arrangements all of the
teams of the league met at the corner
of Fort and King streets at 1 O'Clock
and boarding a special car they were
taken to the base ball park accom-
panied by the band in it's special car.
The grounds reached, the Male team
took the field first for short practice
followed by the Kams
