San Bernardino failed to make much of an impression in Mohave County, Sunday going down to defeat before the Oatman team and Monday being badly beaten by the Kingman "Wildcats".
 The Oatman game was one of the closest and lowest score games of the season and indicated to all appearan- ces another close game in Kingman Monday. But the hopes of the fans in this respect did not come true as the exhibition Monday was hardly in teresting after Reese, San Bernardino pitcher, had to go out of the box tir- ed out.
 A double play from George to Bale to Robinson, and another from Stone to Antill to Casey helped to liven up the game. Kingman got 17 hits with three errors.

 A large number of Kingman fans are going to Oatman tomorrow to help their team win.

Sundays game between Williams and Kingman was good one, proving interesting all the way.
 The Williams boys are hard fight ing bunch but the game was free from any arguments or ungentlemanly con- duct by any of the boys on either side.
 Montgomery and Sellman each land ed a home run as did Robinson and Bale for Kingman. Montgomery al- so made three base hit and two base hit. Knorr hit a two bagger also.
 There was one pretty double play made when two were put down by a play from George to Bale to Robin son.
 Though crippled the Kingman boys played a good game and so did the Williams boys, whom we will be glad to see play here again.

"CATCH THE FLY"

I. N. Hart has placed a fly trap in front of his place of business on Fourth street with good results. The trap is fast filling up with thousands of flies which would otherwise be con- tinuing their work of carrying germs and annoying people.
 The fly trap idea is a good one and if others in town followed suit they would be helping themselves and the rest of the community.

The stickers on the Kingman team this year have so far been responsible for six straight wins and no wonder, for the team as a whole is hitting 377, not counting the first game of the season at Oatman, of which there is no official score. Price is leading the aggregation with batting average of 625, Knorr is next with 478 and Rob- inson a close third with 476. McMil- Ian and Hayes are both over the 400 mark.

 "Hook" Smith is back in Kingman and is again lined up on the pitching staff of the "Wildcats". Smith, as we know, puts a wicked break on the ball and is big asset to the team. He did not have any trouble in fool ing the batters up north, but was too wild, as is often the case with a southpaw. However we haven't for gotten the games where he had 16 and 17 strike-outs to his credit and the fans will be glad to see him per form again.
 We thought the Winslow team a pretty good bunch and were surprised to find from the report in the Win solw paper that someone had played the baby act, and having lost the game had taken rap at Kingman.
 Big" Angel, who caught for King man, last year is now catching for Gibson, New Mexico, which club beat Albuquerque last Sunday. Angel seems to have covered himself with glory from the mention in the Albu- querque paper, which reads:
 "A feature of the gamewas home run by Angel, catcher for the Miners Reese had just put the ball over the right field fence for trip around the bases. Angel came up to bat a few minutes later and made mighty drive into left field, the ball lighting just inside the fence and bouncing over in single bound.
