 Heflin started off by flaming brace of Alumni in the first frame. Ben nenato and Peters were the victims Fin Westfall was not so lucky, for the Coyotes worked him for a pass and a scratch hit and acquired a run.
 IL settled down into driving contest with the locals having the edge They concentrated three blows in the third for couple of runs, while Heffy, back ed up by Harry Westfall in the role of the original nipper of steals. held the visitors.
 In the seventh, the Coyotes caught the Alumni off their balance; smashed the ball, upset George Peters and con- tlnued the merry round until five runs had been scored

 GET CHANCE SUNDAY
Old Timers, Jealous of Automatic, Put in Bid for Chance at Targets
 Shoot Framed Up.

Some weeks ago when the Phoenix Rifle Club put on a shoot for lovers of the .45 automatic pistol there was hue and cry from handlers of the more ancient weapons. They de- CIared that they were not given T square deal, and that if they were all lowed to go out on the range with their antedeluvian weapons, scores the like of which history has never wit messed would be made.
 In order that the discontented ones might be modified in their loud de- mands, Capt. Gulley of Company A of this city has agreed to engineer q shoot for next Sunday for pistols only Any kind of weapon that car bark and bite as far as . yards will be allowed to enter. No special caliber will be. necessary; in fact, anything from a .22 up will be permissible.
 There will be a practice match in the morning and in the afternoon at 2 o'clock the real shoot will be pulled off An entrance fee of one dollar will be charged, the money thus col lected to be split seven or eight ways in order that quite number will have an opportunity to cash in on their skill.
 The main events will be shot over the 9, 90 and 75 yard range, all at slow fire There will probably be a 15 and 25 yard shoot also.
 All those who contemplate going are requested to come by the armory on First street on their way out, and pick up less fortunate ones who have no way of transportation.

 A small fee will be charged to those going as guests in the automobiles of others, to pay road expenses, but to all who own their own cars, the trip is free.

Six Innings of Fast Baseball Before Teams Loosen Up: Errors
 Plentiful
Special to The Republican,

TEMPE, Feb. 22.-SiX innings of speedy interesting baseball were pre- scented to the fans at this afternoons annual Tempe high and normal game. and then after the pedagOgues had piled up five runs to the good on their oponents, play slackened. and while one nine hit hard at bat the other team fielded poorly on the diamond. The resultant score was 13 to in favor of the Normals.
 Quite up to expectations the two squads played sterling ball through the first few innings. Kelley Moeur made first on an error and then pro ceeded to negotiate the remainder of the bases on q wild throw. putting one score across for the Normal in the first frame. Two more runs were chalked up the fourth inning and the Tempests came across with trio at the same time. The seventh was an unlucky inning for sure though, and after the Tempests had made four runs and taken lead of three scores over their opponents. the pedagOgues came back in the very same inning and tallied eight runs on their three hits and the high schools five errors. After that the lightning little Tempests lost heart and the best they could do was to hold the Nor mals to a B to : score.

CONTINUE FOR THREE DAYS.
THE ENTERTAINERS.

Mr.. Burroughs, special represent
ative of the Radcliff Agency, was in
the city two or three days last week
for the purpose of making final ar
rangements for the~three days Chau-
tauqua, which is soon to appear in
Dawson. March 18th, 18th and goth
were the dates fixed for the appear
ance of the attraction.
Friday afternoon a meeting of the
parties who signed the guarantee
was held in the court house. At the
meeting the leaders were named for
| two booster clubs to promote the
sale of tickets for the Chautauqua,
under the names of Reds and Blues
Mr.. Ellis Raglan was named leader of
the Reds and Mr. Raymond Dozier
was named leader of the Blues, each
leader being allowed to select his
own help. To add zest and spirit to
the contest it was agreed that the
! leader of the club selling the smallest
number of tickets will be required
to saw crooked oak log into stove
wood with dull saw before the au-
dience on opening day. This feature
will be quite an attraction within it
self, and the trends of each leader
is determined that the other fellow
shall saw the wood.
The Chautauqua is not a new in
| stitution for Dawson, yet it is in it's
infancy. This community is to be
| treated to three days Of wholesome
entertainment beginning March 18th
entertainment beginning March 18th
Every feature of this entertainment
is distinctly high class. ana it be-
| hooves every citizen of Dawson to
make every preparation necessary to
see every number on the program.
1t is a rare treat to hear such men
as DR.. John G. Cornwell, man who
/ holds five university degrees and
who has filled some of the leading
pulpits of America; also DR.. H. w.
Sears, who has been on the platform
for more than twenty years, and has
lectured in practically every state in
the union. The citizens of this COM
munity will also long remember the
Mysterious Milburns," who are
/ such great entertiners until they
have filled three engagements at the
white house, and also Ellsworth
Plumstead, the man who can make
more faces and create more laughs
with the same face than any man you
have ever seen in Dawson; also the
Bessie Leigh Concert Company, a
band of great musicians and readers,
carrying with them a. man who can
play every known musical instru-
ment.
There is not a man, woman or
child in the community who can af-
ford to miss this ChautauQua. 1t is
educational as we'll as entertaining,
and is an institution right in line
with the home, school and church.
