many a genuine laugh during the play

u part taken by Walter Walsh. were
the chief fun making features. Alex

talent. giving = snap 90 the farce from
the rising OF the curtain. James

their respective parts. The entire
company showed the excellent stage

the farce would attract an increased
patronage. The troupe wIII play at

Dennis McHugh received two votes.
Mr.. McHugh would probably have

BASE5ALL-Manage Rinderle yes
terday had a conversation with Man
ager Drachman of Tucson concerning
the ball game to be played there next
Mr.. Drachman told him IL
was not the Tucson Grays that would
face the Phoenix team but a picked
league Mr.. Drachman said he pro-
posed TO give the visitors the best
thing Tucson has in the way OF base
ball and desired them to be fully
and prepared. Mr.. Rinderle
replied that that suited him nicely.
He wants the best game possible and
IL he loses it. good luck to the victor
who will have to play some to win.
The next game will be in Phoenix and
IL the Sunday game is lost Rinderle
can get a line on what he is up
against. Then il his team needs
strength he will manage some way to
get il. There will be a practice game
today and all the members of the
team are requested to be at the fire
house at $3.50 for that purpose. Cha
pin. the catcher cannot be had for
game but a new catcher will
be tried ont and Strubb will be worked
in the box. II he makes good he and
Quiros will probably do the pitching
Delyado will go along but
most likely play in the field for his
arm is sore from Sundays exertion.
The Phoenix team has now played
games and suffered but one
defeat. Having passed this supersti-
tious number it feels strong for the fu-
ture.
