 "Sturike three -yer-rout" It is the voice of Billy Klem. the little umpire and chaser of players extraordinary, as he calls the first whiffer in the game
 his afternoon between the Phoenix
 team and the Maroon fighters. and it
 will be some game. Billy K will of ficiate for the first time and in ad- dition to the simon pure playing that is promised, some extra umpiring will also be on hand to delight the fans
 It will be Ladies Day fans All the ladies who attend will be admitted without cost and will be given a card as printed below upon which they are each requested to write the name Of ] their choice for the new park and the name for the team, and the lady whose choice is declared to he the 1 best will be given a season pass to l the grounds.
 1 Tn anticipation of the presence of ! the fair sex Secretary Joe Kehoe and 1 Manager Yates went down to the
 grounds yesterday on purpose to see
 that the grand stand was introduced 1 to a thorough understanding of the use of water in making the place clean. So it will be spick and span i q a brand new wagon this afternoon. | especially for the ladies. Thursday afternoons are always to be ladies ] day. it is understood.
 1 Then there is still another good and sufficient reason why the fans of , Phoenix should turn out in full strength to witness this afternoons l pastime. It is simply this: Tognerio, i the new scamperer at first base ar rived safe and sound, went out to the grounds yesterday afternoon for practice workout and burnt up the place His work was of such a sen sationaI quality that the empty grand stands even got up and applauded, something that has not happended to the work around the initial bag in this city since the White Sox came through several years ago. "Tige' is simply there. He has the pep" of the Cook variety. and uses his head with it all It is predicted that the generous reception given Pep Cook upon his first appearance last Sunday will be repeated for "Tige" this after noon.
 The fans will have an opportunity to see the local wonder. Honest John
  South Carolina Kid has delivered few to Pep" Cook. and the two work just like first-class big band be- tween big wheels on an ice machine. which is some working. If Honest John should by any means fall down. stub his toe, or stop to tie his shoe, or do any of the hundred and one things calculated to make the mana ger jerk him, there is Busted Mitt Bill" Barngrover on the side line with the salary wing in first-class order, all ready to step into the breach and pull down a victory.
 Ferguson will again handle the key stone sack for all the complaints made on his exhibition last Sunday In truth. Fergie is one of the fastest men on the team and had an off day last Sunday. Even the best have off days. While Fergie doesn't claim to be any Larry Lajoie or Eddie Collins, i he can play ball fast enough on or dinarv occasions to stay in this league 1 until the cows come home.
 Mention must be made at this time | Of the strength of the outfield. In the regular order beginning with the left pasture-there really is sign | of grass out there-the interested will l find Harry Robinson, spectacular player in extraordinary; Hap CloW' the home run wonder, and "Biff' War ren. positively the only one of his kind in captivity. Returning to the infield witness is made of "Salome Franz at third, who will relieve .sCasev Jones" Barclay on the last corner Ritchie, the silent boss. will be seen in the garden of small vege- tables. which is about all, thank you
 In behalf of the MarOOns it has been said that "Ducky" Darling, traV- cling gladiator, well known in these parts. will be the mound artist for the natives. with Big Chief ResvOloso at the head of the receiving line. The other players distributed about the field will all be as usual, except But Ter. should the afternoon be at all dark If it is dark day Butler will be distinguished by the whites of ms eyes and teeth as he skillfully throws the runner out at first from behind third base somewhere. Butler has an official designation as ShOrtstop, but that isn't title enough to suit the aspiring youngster and ne plays generally substitute second base, third base and first sack, as the oc- casion requires
 All of the above is to announce in stentorian tones that there will be hall game at the park this afternoon ,t 2.3O. and the fans had better be there Oscar Irwin promises not to go nto the grandstand, and Bucky O'Nelll promises not to go out of it. Mona nan promises to be on hand and sup port "hizzumps," having been one
