Smelter Town Will See Great
est Game Of Season and Big
9est Crowd this Afternoon
MILL THEY ROOT! WELL, WELL
CROWDS TO GO FROM ELY, EAST
ELY AND COPPER FLAT, AND
THE TRAINS WILL WAIT UNTIL
THEY ARE READY TO 90.

McGill should witness a cracker
jack game of ball this afternoon when
the new diamond at the smelter town
will formally dedicated by a match
game between the home team and the
Copper Fiat team. McGill showed
what it can do with the ball when the
smelter men crossed bats with Ely
on Sunday. This was the best exhi-
bition of ball we have seen this sea-
son, or rather this year, for the game
was the first of the league, those
which had preceded it being exhibi-
tions, pure and simple.
McGill will be ready for the men
from the mines. The grounds are in
fine condition and they are the fastest
in the district. The grand stand and
bleachers have been completed, and
the fence runs all the way around the
grounds. With a good day for the
outing, everything is in favor of a
fine showing. That there will be a
big crowd. the biggest yet of the
season goes without saying. A big
crowd is going from Ely and East
Ely. and WITHOUT a doubt Copper
Flat will furnish an abundance of
rooters from the mountain district.
McGill will have about million from
the home town.
The greatest interest attaches to
this game, principally for the show
ing made last Sunday at Ely park
between McGill and the home team.
and for the further reason that in
the exhibition between Copper Flat
and Ely, the former carried of the
honors. This will be the first time
that the smoke men and the steam
shovel men have been together on
the diamond, and the contest has
aroused the keenest interest through
out the entire district.
The showing in the grand stand
promises something fine in the way
of a crowd, and noise! Every man
from McGill will be rooter, and to
help the noise along there will be a
forest of tin megaphones in evidence.
There will be some of those tin things
among the army of Copper Flatters,
too, bear in mind. and the rival
noises will be tossup between the
whirring of wheels in the concentra-
tor and the blasts in the steam shovel
pit. There promises to be everything
at this game that the heart of the
baseball fan could desire. 1t will be
touch of high life in a metropoli-
tan city, with big leaguers in the
field. The merry sunshine will be
all necessary to make the entire out
ing the greatest of successes and Nc
Gill has ordered Old Sol to be quite
the gentleman on this occasion and

The train service will be excellent,
giving all the time necessary to wit
ness the game. and get away safely.
