RANGERS VS. ALPINES.
Local Boys Preparing to Hand Hart
 ford Club a. Beating.

The Alpines of Hartford will be the attraction at Ranger field Sunday af- ternoon. This club comes with a big reputation, having defeated most of the best clubs in Hartford besides handing a defeat to the East Ends of this city at the East End grounds.
 This is the first meeting of the Rangers and Alpines and as there Is no love between Hartford and New Britain teams, red hot game should result.
 The visitors will probably use Smith in the box and Johnson behind the bat. Nelson will pitch for the Rangers, with Bloom catching. Game called at o'clock Haugh will um- pire.
