ON THIS AFTERNOON
Many Business Houses Close Three

+ Today is the most important +

q of Grand Junction. +
+ One of the biggest and best +
+ contests of the popular sport +
+ ever pulled off in western Colo +
+ rado is taking place at the fair +
I. grounds this afternoon. +
At noon today the noted Denver
Mays" arrived in the city on No.

by the local fans who, however eX-
pect to send them back to the capital
city shorn of a good many of their
laurels. The Denver mays" is one
of the strongest, semi-professional
teams in the entire west and has won
many signal victories this season. 1t
is one of the fastest base ball teams
that ever visited the city.
The home team is in better eondi-
ton than ever before and while real
izing that it is going up against one
of the swiftest punches of base ball
artists in the state the boys have
been modestly confident that they
could take the game of the afternoon
away from the visitors.
The diamond at the fair grounds
is in fine condition. The rain of last
night and this morning made the day
ideal for the game.
This afternoon there is a general
suspension of business in the city, Il
movement having been started to
get the stores and offices to close
Nearly every business house in the
CITY agreed to close between the
hours of two O'Clock and five o.
clock so that the employers and the
employees might have an opportun-
ity to witness the big contest. Main
street looks almost as quiet as Sun
day this afternoon. The business men
are showing the right spirit when
they in this manner encourage clean
sport by closing up for a few hours
during the progress of that sport.
A large number of Palisade and
Fruita fans are in town to see the
fun.
The game was called at two-thirty
O'Clock this afternoon and a great
crowd throngs the grand stand and
from the very start of the game the
enthusiasm has been running high.
This afternoon was the first OPP
portunity the great majority of the
home people have had to see San
dusky, the famous pitcher for the
home team, get in his work.
