Another baseball attraction is prom. ised for Sunday afternoon at the War ren Park grounds With the splendid start which the C. & A, team, or War ren District Grays, has secured. it would appear assured that a SDlendid gathering of fans will be crowded in- 10 the grandstand to witness the con. test between the Grays and the Sol diers from Douglas. As both teams have a perfect percentage to date. the rivalU is certain to be intense. The Soldiers are said Co be a mighty fast aggregation. composed, as the combi- nation is, of some clever ball tossers gathered from widely separated parts of the United States. Some of the lads have played in very speedy com. pany, too.
 Nevertheless. Manager McNally is sure that his boys csp give a mighty good account of themselves. and he is backed in this optimistic view of the situation by Captain Grady, who leads the Grays in the field and per forms around the second cushion. where he sets a very nice example to his men by the first-class article of ball which he displays.
 The fans have been anxiously awaiting the appearance on the mound of Adkerson, the twirler from Los Angeles, whose splendid record was mentioned last week in the Re. view. Until almost the last moment. 1t was intended to work this new com CT in the game against the Douglas Civilians. However, strained liza. ment kept the southpaw from taking hls place in the box.

Adkerson's reputa. tion has gone before him and every one will be looking to see just how big repertoire of twisters. jumps of cetera, the stranger really carries However, the fans should be inclined Co a degree of leniency. as it will be a trying position for the new slabmah. Having the confidence that goes with a successful experience. however. Ad kerson is likely to make good and the prediction is vouchsafed that he will be able to successfully defy the am. bitions of the military Representatives
 Anheier the clever heady backstop who also carries a big stick. will be on hand. He will be a great help to Adkerson, in point of sizing up the batters' failings He will. moreover as hinted, be a formidable proposition for the opposing moundsman to face when a big bingle is needed.
 The Bisbee Boosters will journey to Douglas, where they will play the l Civilians. The Boosters are said tc be coming strong now, and are plan ming to enter the win column tomor row. By the way. they will appear in their new uniforms of red and white 1 The new advertising scheme will be 1 m evidence, the names of prominent Bisbee firms appearing on the backs of the uniforms, while on the front will appear the team name.
