LAS VEGAS BALL CLUB
TO PLAY ALBUQUERQUE

Tomorrow afternoon Las Vegas will
send base ball team representing
this city to meet the Albuquerque
Grays on their home diamond. The
Grays have strong team, in fact u
is one of the strongest that they have
turned out in years, SO that the Las
Vegas club will have its hands full
and a most lively game may be ex
pected.
This is the first strong team that
Las vegas has turned out in three OF
four years, in fact 1t is the only team
that has ever left the city to play an
opponent during these years. So q
great deal of interest is centered in
the game
The Las Vegas club win line up
as follows: Wolf c; Stafford, p:
Blood, 1b; Upton. 2b; McWenie, Sb;
Hipsch, IS; Young, IF; Monisers. CT;
Shupp If.
Stafford, who will be on the slab for
the Vegas bunch, is no other than Ed
ward Stafford, of Santa Fe, who Pitch
ed one shut-out game for the soldiers
at the encampment grounds recently.
Stafford rs recognized as one of the
best pitchers now playing ball in the
southwest, and he has taken the
measure of the Albuquerque Grays
several times this season. With
Wolf receiving the sphere behind the
bat, it looks as if Las Vegas should
finish the game a winner.
If the local CLUB makes credit
able showing in Sundays game, then
Santa Fe will likely be here for
game next Sunday Ration, Trinidad
and Dawson are also anxious for
games to be played either here or
there.
The outlook is for some good base
ball games between now and the close
Of the season and the boys should be
given every encouragement.

COUNSEL

White Plains, N. T., July S0.-Upon
the resumption of the hearing to
prove his sanity, Harry K Thaw took
the stand today, with an air which
showed calm confidence in his pre-
vious showing and an assurance that
he was a match for Jerome. Jerome
continued his examination along lines
of Thaw's own ideas as to his mental
condition. contrasting these answers
with the statements Of fourteen alien
lists. Thaw clung to the phrase that
he was not medically insane, though
he might have been legally insane
when he shot White. He admitted
some OF the physicians might have
been right, that others were dis
taken and one wilfnlIy presented :
distorted verdict.

& am of the same opinion as are
all medical men who have examined

danger of a recurrence of my trouble"
answered Thaw.
Thaw denied that he ever rented
rooms at Mrs. Merrills house. Jerome
asked him about the story that he
scalded a girl in a bath tub and
that he had taken girl named Ruth
Lambert automobiling in Paris, bring
ing her back naked and covered with
welts. Those are crazy lies" said
Thaw, contemptuously. Tales OF
cruelty in his early youth, beating a
boy and driving horse to death,
we're also denied. Thaw explained

Nltsche, follows the humble and pro-
sale calling Of chimney sweep. A
year or two ago when the emperor was
staying at small German watering
place, so the story goes, tailor of the
locality, suddenly waking up to the
fact that he was rather like his maj
esty, had his mustache trimmed ac-
cordingly, copied the style Of dress as
nearly as possible and boldly sailed
forth into the town. His reception
even exceeded his own expectations,
but the incident got to the ears of the
authorities. Next day the ambitious
tailor received visit from police Of
ficer with a peremptory recommends
tion to alter his appearance or else
