NEW PARK OPENS AT WARREN
Game Called at 2 O'Clock To- day In Case Rain Acts
 Sensible
SATURDAYS TORRENT
 BLAMED ON SHERIFF

Well, maybe it will not rain today, even though old J. Pluvius lid spoil yesterdays sport at the Warren grounds, Rather mean, too, don't you think. especially when it was to ne the opening game of the season? Yet every fan in Bisbee knows full well why it rained and should there be one in doubt just let him look up the history of Sheriff White. That particular official was never known to visit Bisbee but what he brought the rain with him, and yes | terday was not the exception that proved the rule, either. Out Warren way the downpour was even worse l than in Bisbee. for added to the tor 1 rent hail was also plentiful. Of course. everybody got wet to the | skin that brayed the elements, but it | all goes to show that there are lot l of faithful fans down in this section of the country.
 It vas just the thing for the grounds, which were soft and dusty, but which will be in fine shape for the game today, which will begin prompt. | ly at 2 o'clock. An effort was made to have the tickets of the Fl Paso ! team extended until Monday morning l in order that doubie-ne9der could be | played. but this proved unayailing,
 hence the promptness of o'clock. | Those fearing the rays of the sun | should Old Sol win out ove- J. P to- Il day-need have no fear for the grand, | stand is covered, not enough to keep out the rain, there being no shingles,
 but fine and dandy for a sun shade. iD fact, the peanut and ice cream cone
 man will be there. and that within lt,
 self assures the success of the ocoa-
 sion, the opening of the new Warren
 park and the 1909 baseball season i': Bisbee.
 There was one man at the grounds
 yesterday perhaps just the least bit
 more disappointed than all the rest,
 and that was Hughey Drgan. cap.
 tain of the Cananea team, who had
 come all the way from the Mexican town to get line on Manager Wolfs
 team. It was up to Hughey to report
 back to his teammates just where the
 weakness lay in the Bisbee lineup, but
 as Hughey must lead his proteges on
 to victory at Tucson this afternoon and
 tomorrow morning hs will net have
 the coveted opportunity.
 Cananea is just aching to get at the BlSDee DOyS, ana 1rOm l1e IOOkS
 of things it will not be long until the
 opportunity presents itself. The Mex
 ican town has met defeat but twics
 this year, and consequently is rather
 chesty, but that, just like the rough | spots in the grounds at Warren, will
 all come out in the wash.
 Billy Graham will handle .he
 indicator at today's game, which we
 must not forget will be called prompt
 ly at o'clock in order that the Fl
 Paso boys may return home on the ,
 o'clock train. The lineup as printet.
 on the programs prepared for yester- days game will be subjected to no change further than Hoschelle, the St. Louis pretzel. who will do the
 twirling, while Thomas takes care O.
 his portion of the outer garden. The

 Bisbee-Ward. ss.; Royal, C.: Dorsch, 2b.; McCann,.1 1b.; Williams,
