SATURDAYS EXHIBITION "
 BALL GAME GOOD ONE
FIagstaff's Crack Ball Players Win From Ft. Wingate by
 Score of 5 to s.

The exhibition game of ball at the driving park Saturday between Flagstaff's crack aggregation of ball players and the ard U. S. cavalry team oi Fort Wingate was a fine game, devoid of all picker ing or kicks. The score stood 5 to 8 in favor of the local team with the little flag on their arms. Samosa held the visitors down to few scattering hits and was backed up by Morris in fine style. E. Rudolph, of Phoenix, has been engaged to umpire the series of games, and the general opinion was that he was on the square all through this game. The soldier boys are gentle manly lot of young fellows and have made many friends by their conduct since they have been in Flagstaff. This section will al- ways have a warm place in their hearts for the 3rd Cavalry. They were not without good repre- sentation of friends in the grand stand Saturday.
 The line up was as follows: Flagstaff
 Brannen Ib, Perkins 2b, Dun ston sb, Tommy Smith ss, Morris C, Mullen If, Glow If, Lea Smith cf, Samosa p. Ft. Wingate-
 Cummings cf, Wagner 2b, Linn 3b, Kaiser ss, Purner p. Mayer If, Cooper If, Kramer rb, Huegele c, Mckee p.

JEFFRIES-- S--JOHNSON FIGHT
Continued from Page il

Round I2-Jeff ducks left swing and clinches. Jeff tries right and left and misses and Jack goes to the face. Johnson lands straight left to face but Jim gets left to the blacks face.
 Round I3--The black lands a left on the Californian's eyes, swelling. them considerably and hooks right to head. Jeff misses uppercut for chin while Johnson crowds Jeff to ropes and lands a right twice making him break ground.
 Round I4--Johnson's left goes to the mouth and he dances out of danger. Jeff puts hard left on the head then left to mouth, dances back and then sends two hard lefts to stomach. They clinch and Jeff blocks right uppercut.
 Round I5- Johnson hooks twice and Jeff clinched on the ropes; as they broke away the negro sent hard right to the chin. Jeff fell against the ropes and came back back slowly. Jack swung another hard right on jaw, then hooked a left to chin, knocking Jefferies through the ropes. He was count ed out before he was pulled to his feet. He had been bleeding badly for the last five rounds. The negro punished him severely and blocked his leads with ease and it was apparent from the r2th round that the negro would win.

THE SCORE
Flagstaff Wins Second Game.

The first game of the series was played Sunday between Flagstaff and Ft. Wingate. It was a fine game. Wingate led all the way up to the fourth inning with one tally; Flag then broke even and took one, too; in the sixth the soldier boys had a bad streak of luck coupled with daring base running by Flag, which let in five runs. Both batteries did excellent work.
 The line up was the same as the day before, except Williams in the box for Flag and Foot sub- stituting for Tommy Smith, who was spiked in the third inning but returned later to his place at short. Fort Wingate put Kramer in the box.
 THE SCORE

 The Flagstaff band, under the leadership of Jack Fairfax, furn- ished music during the game and made fine showing. Everyone lis pleased with the thriving young band.

Mountains of Moab.

Most travellers who visit the Holy
Land content themselves with q visit
to that restricted part west of Jordan.
The mountainous regions of Moab as
seen by them from Jerusalem are lost
in purple haze that constantly hangs
over them, aud the great stretches be-
yond are covered in mystery. This
is true partly because of the fewer
historical incidents connected with the
eastern regions, but mainly on account
of the great abyss of the Jordan val
ley that has always acted as barrier.
Few who descend into the valley 1900
feet below sea level undertake to climb
the hills beyond, which rise to a
height of 5000 feet. Though its glory
is far outshone by that of western
Palestine, still, both in the old and the
new dispensations, 1t has a history Of
its own and from an economic stand
point will always enter very largely
into the life of PALESTINE Christian
Herald.

Old English Recipe For the Famous
Soupe a la Crecy.

Book" by Frederick Bishop, late cut
siner to ST. James palace. Earl Grey.
the Marquis of Stafford. Baron Roth
schild. Earl Norbury. Captain Dun
combe and mauy of the first families
of Great Britain QS52). we find this
recipe for soupe la Crecy:
"Cut half a pound of lean ham In
dice. three onions, four turnips, twelve
carrots (the outer side red only, head
of celery, fagot of sweet herbs, two
blades of mace. six cloves. bay leaf
and half a pound of salt butter. Fry
all down in a stewpan until they get a
little brown; then add some second
stock and stew until all the roots are
quite tender; then rub 1t through a
fanny sieve or fanny cloth with two
long spoons. If very thick add more
stock Season with cayenne and black
pepper and salt and good bit of sug-
ar. Send up on a napkin some nice
fried bread cut in small dice and not
greasy"
This is far less elaborate than it
sounds and is, indeed. IN the main the
recognized recipe for the royal soup.
The spice is. if anything, trihe over
done, and the carrots want to be well
chosen, as the slightest stringiness de-
stroys the homogeneity of the COM
pound. The bread dice are important
and should be fried IL. the very best
