Grant was the engineer of the project. A-~i | He ranked high in Masonry. For | several years he was grand master of Colorado and was also the first
 grand commander of the Colorado Knights Templar. He became a thirty-third degree Mason in 1882. | Governor Ammons. in statement

PIRATES THINK
 0F CITY LEAGUE
Game Between Coyotes and Pirates Ends In Rain and Second Inning; Why Not City League?

The Coyotes and the recently or ganized team of Pirates met on the Churchill grounds yesterday and played just one and one-half innings of baseball Then the rain drove the enthusiasts and others to shelter, and the game ended with the Coyotes having runs, the Pirates one run, a man on third and none down. The game was a disappointment as inc fast and hard innings were expected and could not be played.
 From appearances the new organi- zation, which was gotten together by l.. M. Mckinley for the sole purpose of cleaning all the teams in the val ley, bids fair to be one of the fast From the appearances yesterday in their fielding and hitting they have a dandy bunch of players all of. whom are experienced heads They had a good practice before and after the rain.
 Mckinley feels that he has an or ganization which in amateur circles will make all teams fight. However there are few of that class of teams in this part of the state and he has a hard time finding games for his team. He suggested d city league as the remedy
 There are already three teams which would be able to enter such a league and perhaps four,' he said last evening The Postoffice has one organization. and the banks another, and the high school is a possible con- tender, in the event it is found week day baseball will pay. With the or ganization of one or three more teams in the city by the larger stores, by the employees of the Federal building,
 the water users building. or the Y. M. C. A., there would be engendered | enough interest to draw good crowds | for a small admission fee, and to give the public lots of fun and some good amateur baseball. Fast ball would not be attempted as the word is ap- piled to inside work or speedy base
 standpoint of the ordinary city 1 league
 l McKinley's plan has been tried with
 success in other cities of the state
 In Tuscon the past two summers have
 seen q four team city league playing
 in the afternoons and a four team
 league playing the mornings. Pres
 colt always has a four team league for summer sport and Globe and
 Miama put out two teams each las1 year in order to have the right kint i of rivalry and sport
 If the other and smaller cities o the state can support such an or ganization there is no reason in tho 1 world, according to the sports O Phoenix for this city not having { good organization of summer bal players. When it was tried her' before it was success as long a!
 the interest was sustained, but thu teams themselves fell off at tha time, and consequently the attendanc,
