Real Wild West Show To
 Be Frontier Day Feature

at PfeScOtt.
 Scores of prominent riders have sig nified their intention of competing at Prescott, regardless of the fact that no wages or guarantee arrangements have been tolerated. A majority of these men feel that they can come and compete with the Arizona cowpuncher, fresh from the range and break into the money somehow.
 George Ruffner and other prominent cowmen of Yavapai county, take the stand that these outside entries need not terrify local riders; that the puncher fresh from the rodeo and acclimated to the hIile High elevation stands more than an even chance and this is the general feeling among Arizona cow punchers, not a few of whom have all ready sent in their entry blanks. In this years celebration, over $4,000 in gold will be awarded, including priZ- es amounting to s1,750 in one event alone, the worlds second champion broncho busting contest. For this great event, the program committee is securing northern Arizona for wicked horses and with the ten noted outlaws from Juarez, which were seen at last years show, it is expected that at least fifty bad buckers will be in the corral ready to "cut up when the first an nouncement is made by Doc Pardee, at ? o'clock July 3. The celebration will last fer three days, terminating July !, and the reception committee guaran- tees comfortable accommodation for all who will come. Prescott accommO- dated several thousand extra people in 1914 without a hitch. Very low eX cursion rates have been published in connection with Prescott Frontier Days

Reyyy's NeW Ex And Stock Mote
 Here Saturday

According to a laconic telegram re- ceived from the Excelsior Manufac- turing Company yesterday morning. Bob Perry, one of the greatest little motorcycle riders in the game, IS to be the Excelsior factory entrant in the Moose 2OO-mile motorcycle race here next Monday.
 Perry is to arrive with two ma chimes, one d port or eight valve and the other a stock model, which the racer will use in case the track ap- pears to him too dangerous or hard on tires for the faster machine
 Manager John Brown of the Pioneer Cycle Company. agents for the Ex- celsior. said yesterday on receipt of the elegram announcing Perrys com ming. that he would cooperate to the best of his ability in the coming race. The factory asked him, he said, but it was d useless request, for once he knew. an Ex would be in the race, with an event break with the other factory entries. he would work for all he was worth
 Perry and his two machinles will be here Saturday according to the wire. Lately the trade journals have been full of Perry's plans to build an Excelsior that will be faster than anything yet constructed. It is positively known that he has been at the factory in Chicago ever since the Venice race. So the probabilities are that the Heap Big Paleface will show some class in this long race.
 "We may hear from Girton and Hoffer, the coast agents for the EX- celsior." said Brown. They have some fast mechanism over there. and also some brainy young riders.

 There is revival of the time honored argument concerning the difference that weight makes in the track riding ability of various motor cycle racers.

Just as though all that has preceded has been mere practice. the Rio Grande Association of four baseball clubs will open it's season again with Albuquer- que playing Phoenix at Riverside park, and Fl PasO playing Tucson at the Ely sian groves this afternoon.

 Interest in no series has ever been so high as in this coming clash between the two most promising teams of the league The Phoenix public was sec retly. perhaps. dissatisfied with the showing of Tucson. the only club it has seen go against the Senators. But there is nothing to lead to the belief that the games starting today will be one-sided.
 Never before has an Albuquerque team of any sort played in Phoenix. And when Umpire Sterling losses Fred Weber's American League -orening game Walter Johnson sphere to Me Creery today. there will probably be a record weekday crowd on hand to see
 
 it would be entirely meet and proper for the Albuquerque lead off man to crack said sphere into the far and dis tant depths of the Phoenix ocean. just to prove that there is baseball down in these regions
 Friday tor Ladies
 Women will be admitted free at Riv- srside ball park every Friday according to the announcement of Secretary George Lang of the Phoenix club yes terday Phoenix is not lacking in wO- men fans. So George is desirous of recognizing their support with a com plimentary ticket once a week.
 Wise old George, He has probably figured it all out how many fair fan nettes will cause their husbands to don palm beach suits and take them to the ball games that Friday afternoon.
 MT. Joe Ellis and MT. "Tib" Tibbitts have not had anything to do the last week except tinker around the ball park. and now that piece of suburban property is in fine shape for the ser ies- The diamond will be harder and more conducive to speed than it was during the Tucson series.
 Albuquerque has shown a shocking lack of sympathy for Fl Paso. One of the chief troubles has been that the officials of the league. all Fl Paso men, have insisted on the Dukes dropping their expensive players Albuquerque is convinced that this cutting down to the salary limit caused their team to drop the lead. And this all leads to the natural comment that in baseball, it is not always the umpire who gets himself unpopular.

To compass thy glad feetness. Tlmsi
