And now it's an excursion to Hay den.
 IL is a cold day when the board of trade hasn't something on the boards to boost Phoenix or cement mutual relations between this and one or an other of the neighbOring communities, and the excursion to Hayden is the latest. 1T was decided upon yesterday a, the weekly meeting of the directors when a motion passed directing the president to appoint a committee to take charge of the excursion. work it up and see that everybody in Phoenix who has money enough to buy an ex- cursion ticket, goes on the trip. The date of the excursion has not been fixed but will be soon after the nam ing of the committee, which will be done on Friday.

This Is the manner in which Harry

Davis had read the newspaper accounts

what he considered the injustice done the
Athletics in this matter.
Il think you will find that the only pro-
test lodged" Davis continued, originated
in the fertile brain of some Philadelphia
baseball writer looking for a good story.
You cannot tell me that Connie Mack ever

wait until he was bstted around the

there are more ball games won because
