 To signify large teardrops!
 Grant Park, an institution barely a year old, but bearing loads and loads of pleasant, thrilling, satisfying, cussi- flying memories is about to pass.
 When Glendale gets through being beaten by George Barretts Solons this afternoon, the last regular baseball game will have happened at Grant park. With the early dawn of a Mon day morning not much more than twenty-four hours away, the claw hammer and the hand bar will be laid upon the devoted fence and grand stand, and by nightfall, very little will be left. Coordinate with the melting and disappearance of Grant park, there will rise in the northwest corner of Riverside park, a new and glorified baseball home-the first regulation field, and the first really big enough baseball grand stand ever constructed in Arizona
 With the authority of the financial packer plus that he wields as manager of the Senators, Barrett will act as a sort of a rectifier of baseball. The

WITH BANDS
 A-PLAY|NC
Tempe Awaits Onslaught of Jewels to Tunes of Two Famous Musical Or ganizatiOns -Oviedo Vs. McGOWan on Slabs
Especial to The Republican,


 TEMPE, June 2o.-With the con- solidation of Dr. F. H. Redewili's military band of Phoenix and the local Merchants band, a fifty piece organization will be formed to add music to the joy of the Tempe Mesa ball game on the local diamond to- morrow afternoon. Musicians and the baseball boys alike, are keyed to a high pitch, all of which goes to prove that there is going to be a real big time at the park.
 Manager Lukin is going to play safe from the start tomorrow and pitch old reliable Felix Oviedo straight through. Leechy is bound to stick to the box work too. for when he goes bad one may as well say goodbye to the old ball game. Captain John Mutt, alias John Burr to his friends, will do the receiving. The infield remains intact. The Bears latest acquisition-a shortstop who can play his part full we'll makes an alright infield. Bollin is the lad who played his first game with Tempe last Sunday and who has won a permanent job at short position. Kelly Moeur is booked for third base, Trujillo for second base and Griffin for first.
 Doc Ewing will do the fly catching shagging and begging in left field. The departure Of little Fen Harris left the Bears in rather bad way for a lead-off man and center-fi fielde- particularly since Harris has held down those two jobs for the last two seasons. He's gone. though, and Hanna is a likely man to fill the hole. Right field will be filled either 1 by Vinson or Birchell, the latter an | addition to the club at practice last evening.
 1 Manager Langowsky of Mesa vii l play his same old reliable line up i He made a good addition too, wher Guy Collins, of pitching fame year; | ago, was induced to re-enter the game last Sunday for the first time
 this season. Collins sticking at .75(
 is proof as well as his errorless playing in right field. McGowan vii
 probably pitch again tomorrow witt
 Morris as his battery mate ! The band music is going to be ( big item of the afternoon. The Rede-
 will organization will be here in ful 1 force to join the locals in their .eg.
 ular Sunday afternoon concert or
 the plaza. As a preliminary to that | though, the musicians are going t,
 render a short program on the stree preceding the game and then retir,
 to the park for the balance of thei
 work.
 Some style to Lukin, furnishing two classes of entertainment for thu price of one.

RITCHIE DUE
 FOR KNOCKS

It's time New York fight cri- tics jumped to their feet as one man and landed stiff-legged on Willie Ritchie, hailing him as a cheese champion" false alarm" bubble" and every other parlor epithet they used in discussing champion Johnny Kilbane
 When Kilbane fought a draw with Jimmy Walsh in Boston, shortly after he won the feather weight title, the New York sport writers got busy with their wit and wasted columns of type singing mud at him.
 But there isn't a chapter in Kilbane's history as champion that shows any similarity to the showing Ritchie made against Jack White at Milwaukee.
 But the New York hammers are still gathering dust.

Up to and including the time when the PhoeniX-Prescott road race can be called over, the place-Wherever it may beat which the competition committee happens to find itself, will be the scene of much business. Harry Lane, a member of the committee and Joe OConnell a racer, left yesterday morning for Prescott. Lane will line up some checkers at the various towns along the route. Only the checkers on the desert will be secreted in the brush. All riders are supposed to realize that they will be scrutinized as they pass through the villages
 On Monday, State Referee John Hohl will send a money order to Chairman Donovan of the F. A. M. competition committee, the same to pay for the road race and the Prescott loop race Safe as a Clock How do you feel about letting Har- ry ride this race?" was the question addressed to J. H. Lane of the Harley agency yesterday.
 Safe as a clock" he replied. Road racing is all right. I know the boy can handle his machine, and I know the road. That race will not be nearly so dangerous as a mile track event. The winner will not be decided un- til the first machine checks into Pres l colt l really believe that the race will be close. I figure Boido and Wilson and OConnell-and of course. Harry.

Will Hold Proud Place in History of Conflict

London, Aug. ,7., 3:1o A. M.-The Daily Mails Paris correspondent names three Belgian Actresses, Liege, Namur and Huy (Herve), as seeming likely to hold a proud place in the history of the present war, for they held back the head of the ad- vancing German hosts and have given the French army time in which to make up for the thirty hours disad- vantage in mobilization which they suffered through Germany's early preparations.
 It was never expected that Liege would offer any serious resistance, says the correspondent, yet already it has stepmed the German onset for two precious days, and only today have two of it's ring of forts fallen be- fore the concentrated attack of the German army.
 This partial success against fortifi- cations thirty years old was gained by the Germans light siege artillery The Belgians falling back on Liege, still resist stoutly, and 8 fierce resistance may yet be made in the very streets of the modern city Even when Liege falls. Namur and Huy will carry on the resistance. Meanwhile the Bel gian success has nightly encouraged the French who are now more than even certain of victory.

 BY BRITISH IN HEAVY BATTL
Believed That Kaiser's BattIeships Are No| Hemmed in in Eastern Side
 Of North Sea.

London, Aug. z, $40 a. m.--A dis patch to the Daily News from New castle, timed one a. m., today says that a wireless message received at South Shields shortly before midnight states that the British fleet engaged the German High Seas fleet in a heavy battle off the South Dogger Banks.
 After general engagement along the battle line, which extended for many miles and in which many ships on both sides took part, the German fleet was beaten back and moved in the direction of the coast of Hol- land.
 It is now believed that the Ger man fleet is completely hemmed in in the eastern side of the. North Sea.
 All the rest of the sea is in the control of the British fleets. Sup- port for this contention is found in the official permission given to fish. ing travellers to leave the Tyne ports. those of the Humber and other-least coast fishing centers for the fishing grounds today. This has been for bidden for two days.
 The surgeon in charge of the South Shields hospital received a wirele $ message last night asking what ac- commodations he had for the wound ed. He replied that he could take care of one thousand persons.
