A fierce battle is brewing and has been for several days and the nearer the time comes for the clash, the warmer things look. One of the aggregations is going down in defeat, that's certain, but both maintain now, that it will be the opposing one.

To predict just which one it will be, is a dangerous proposition for an outsider at this time. The ball game will be a hummer though and the talk is already being made that the winning team will likely issue a strong challenge to one of the Texas league teams or Giles; they don't know which yet. Daily practice is being indulged in to almost an excess on both sides and no doubt the slims will be "trim" and the fats will be "pat," when the hour comes. W. G.

Fly, the popular "druggist at Roach's" will deliver the sphere for the leans, and he has already become an expert in the art; he practices with pills, they say. Walter Fowler will wear the mask and is pretty good on a "cabbage catch" already. John Wood the star first base man, is practicing his latest music and will be invited to entertain while holding hi 8 place, with the new song "Under the shade of the Peanut Tree. Ike Kendrick the center fielder will probably come in handy with his professional services ere the smoke has cleared away. They say George Williams is doing aland office business writing life insurance in view of the terrible conflict.

He plays second. A. M. Works, substitute will probably takes "notes" on the whale thing and his brother George, will hold down the third, and will watch the proceedings from a "distance." A. Bivins, the wolf hunter, will toss 'em for the Fats.

He says he will make them "short" fellows hunt their lairs too. Bob Souders will complete the battery for this aggregation. He is a good hitter Outing Shirts You have no idea how much more you will enjoy your outing if you are weaiv ing a nice Outing Shirt. We have the best line of Shirts ever seen in the state of Texas, from a good Working Shirt to a Silk Negligee. Come in and sec them.

Hugh Whitcomb, graduate optician and jeweler, has located with Gist Bros. 53-54 Crowdus Bros. Hides, Wool and Storage. Phone 101, Cor 5th Grant sts and a fast base runner, but the report is current that an extra fence is to ba built around the park to keep him from running into the sheriffs office, -till the game is over. John Snyder says he will "arrest," every thing that comes around the first base and Ed Engman is going to "cook 'em" in the center field, Carl Larson will "haul" everything off the second and Lee Bivians expects a glorious time in his "round up" on the third.

G. A. Gosser, the cigar maker, is substitute and as a "long filler," may flill a long felt want. Nothing but regulation wagon tongue bats will be used in the game excepting concessions may be granted Greer of the Leans and Wright of the Fats. They will probably use twelve inch paddles to slug with.

Eighteen balls will ba used in the game to start with, one for each player, and more will be ordered if needed. The umpire will have a cage made of mesh wire; with a danger signal flying. We don't know who the victim is yet. The battle promises to be exciting as well aslengthy; if called in on account of darkness, return tickets will be given the crowd and the game finished at some future date, probably July 4, 1907. The proceeds of the game are for the benefit of the cemetary association.

Mr. Downs has been in Texas before, but he came back this time more than ever convinced that it is the coming great agricultural and stock country. He thinks the Panhandle country is making greater advancements iu the way of improvements than any of the new countries. While in that part of the state, Mr. Downs bought two sections of land ten miles east of Amarillo.

Then, as he came on back through Oklahoma, he stopped off at Oklahoma City, where he purchased a $7,000 residence. "For good crops and general prosperous conditions, that country beats any thing I ever saw," said Mr. Downs. "All over the Panhandle country farms are being opened up where cattle have been pastured.
