ALL-STARS
MUD LARKS
They Swan to Victory
Over the Grdys
But Out of Their Element
In the Morning Game.
Were Beaten.

Prescott, Ariz., July 26.-(SpeciaD-
Today's games between Phoenix and
Prescott were replete with sensations
The morning game was won by Pres
| colt by a score of l. WallOwing in
the mud and rain for several innings
Phoenix took the afternoon affair h. 9
score of to 3. Despite handicaps
there was a number of good infield
stunts and running catches by Mitch
ell and Millett in the outfield but the
pitchers, Whitridge and Burgett of the
Grays and Williams of the All Stars
were unable to do more than reach
them over a puddle which encompass
ed the plate. Scott in this game drove
the soggy ball over the left field fence
for a homer.
The morning game was the fastest
seen on the local diamond this season
but it was marred by unsatisfactory
umpiring. The All-Stars protested
two of Grabb's decisions in the ninth
when it looked like they would tie
the score, and claimed that Wilson
had blocked Williams on a line play
between second and third, and also that
Grijalva, called out at first, was safe
by many feet. Phoenix had hosts OF
supporters in the grandstand for the
fans in Prescott are pretty square
bunch. There was no row or quar-
Ireling. but the All-Stars quietly walk
ed off the field and gave the game to
Prescott. The incident was much re-
GREETED here. Attorney Paul Burks OF
the S. F. P. & P, was called into serv-
- e
proved efficient
QuirOs pitched a star game for
Phoenix in the morning exhibition but
the All-Stars played in hard luck
having men on bases every inning but
their hitting was not timely. Their
only run came in the ninth, Williams
scoring Scott with a tWo-bagger. War
ner and Tebben both singled in the
sixth but a horseshoe double play
when Mitchell in the left pulled down
SCOTS drive and retired Warner at
second saved the day for Prescott. Two
singles and a sacrifice and a fielder's
choice gave Prescott a run in the third
and two singles and sacrifice fly al
lowed one in the fourth. A single, a
sacrifice, an error at third and field
eighth. Phoenix secured six hits and
made four errors, while the Grays
singled five times and messed up four
mistakes.
The afternoon game was somewhat
farcical on account Of the mud. Phoe-
nix splashed over two runs in the first
on soaks by Tebben, Scott and Will
liams. Hard hitting gave them one in
both the third and fourth. Prescott
waded up closer with one in the
fourth and two in the sixth on hits
and helpful slips in the outfield.
Phoenix waterlogged their end of the
score in the seventh with two addi-
tional swims homeward by three drives
and a fielder's choice Eveyone was
exonerated for errors in this game and
doubly honored for good plays Whit
ridge was pulled out of the pond in the
third ard Burgett tossed the sponge
thereafter. The attendance at both
games was good

THE NEW BOOKS.

Pray read "The Basement" by all
means "a prince of story tellers
Has written it, and l can say it's one
! of our best cellars:
"The Almanac" is one that l can offer
without fear.
And / assure you that it is the story
of the year:
1.-The Broken. Corset Steel is new--just
from the press today.
They say it grips you like a vise-'tis
something that will stay;
And if you want a thing that lasts
that will not let YOU slumber
Here's something l can recommend
tits called 1.-The Green Cucumber"
THE Newlaid Egg" they say is good
and in a certain set
1t has tremendous vogue-I have not
opened it as yet:
Days Twenty One" is good for one
who love and letters seeks,
(The book reviewers say it's quite the
equal Of Three Weeks")
"That Batsman' is having quite run
made a tremendous hit:
"The Peach is good-they say it is
far better than 1.-The PITT"
They're pushing 1.-The Lawnmower''
now-its going very well.
And as for Full Rugged Pirate Ships,
they say the sails still swell
"The Germ" still holds its own-"gets
in the blood" the critics say;
1.-The Beaten Egg" is a stirring tale
H-ot, can't
"The Coalman's Ton" is very short
indeed so short and light
You'll find you can finish it with ease
say overnight;
1.-The Switch" is helpful and much
liked, and l have heard 1t said
That many do not lay it by until they
go to bed:
1.-The Sea Dog" is a waggish thing
the true sea lovers friend
And like all dogs it has a bark and
tale at either end.
