The GAZETTE will continue to furnish the
news kilograms of the New York Associated Press
and of Reuters European Agency, while its
Washington correspondence will furnish the
latest and most reliable news from the capital Of
the nation. Tho proceedings of Congress will be
regularly reported in succinct form, but all mat
tiers of special interest in Virginia will be given
in detail and the full text of all bills Of local in
terest will be published
The Commercial columns of the GAZETTE will.
give the earliest and most exact commercial news
with reliable reports of the Grain, Cattle, Grocery
aud other Markets, and the prices and position of
the stocks which the subjects of business
transactions in this section Of the country.
lis Richmond correspondence and special tele-
graphic dispatches will give early and accurate
accounts Of the proceedings Of the General Assem-
bly, and of all the operations Of the State govern
mcnt likely to interest the people.
Correspondence from every section Of the State
published continually, and all events of interest
occurring within the bounds Of the Commonwealth
will be faithfully reported
The Local Department will receive special at
tcntion during the coming year, and no pains
will be spared to chronicle all matters occurring
in the city and neighborhoed.
The GAZETTE was established in 1900, and is
now The oldest paper published in the State, and
with very few exceptions the oldest in the coun-
try. 1t is proposed to keep up its usefulness and
to be continued paper suited for the family as
we'll as for the counting room and work shop,
and to this end neither pains or expense will be
spared. Its past shall be guarantee of its future.
The circulation of the GAZETTE is steadily in
creasing, and that, too, among people who consult
its advertising columns generally before purchas-
ing the numerous articles they are constantly in
need of. That this is self-evident may be inferred
from the fact that a large country edition-equal-
" as large the daily-is sent out all over this
section of country three times a week, and is
read by thousands most of whom send here or
to contiguous cities for what they have neither
the time or inclination to purchase in person. 1t
of course follows that they read advertisements
in order to find where purchases can bemadesatis-
factorily. The advantages of advertising in the
GAZETTE are thus apparent, and need no further
demonstration.

How BASE BALLS ARE MADE.-The hrs'-
class regulation base ball for this year is no
different from that in use last year. IL
costs 81 so, and sells at wholesale at the
rate of SIS dozen. 1t weighs about hVe
ounces. and when thrown on board moor
sounds like young paving stone. IL isJusC
about as solid and as heavy as turnip VI
the same size, aud though 1t IS perfectly
round and smooth, and the stitches are al
nost even with the leather, it stings the un-
caloused hand of the catcher as II 1t were
red hot or covered with prlckers.
Base balls are dear because they are made
nv hand. and they are made by hand because
thew must be wound very tightly, carefully
and evenly. The basis of each one Is a lit
tie lump of Para rubber, round and weigh
ing an ounce. Wound around this IN every
direction is worsted yarn. In some balls,
after a thick layer of yarn Is wound on, the
ball is dipped in rubber, then more yarn IS
wound on; then it is dipped again, ana
finally vet more is wound on ana lhen
the cover is fitted oyer it. One ball al
fected by many professionals has tnln
skin of concrete midway between lhe
cover and the rubber Girls make all the
Tails. The process is something IKE that
OF making certain mixed drinks, wherein the bar,

sugar to make them sweet Players want what IS
called a dead bali, that is, ono that Won bounce
much A stone will bounce more taan hai ought.
So the rubber is put in make Il bounce Just III
Tie, and the warn is wound tight and concrete Is
added to ston it bouncing at all. Thus the happy
medium is reached. Sometimes nodded vulcanlzed
rubber is used.
The best balls are covered with horse-skin be-
canse il is strong and tough. Many of these arc
sewed with catgut but in damp weather the cat
gu: loosens, and therefore at such times those
balls are used which arc stitched with flax.
Base balls can be purchased for five, ter TWEEN
ty, twenty five and fifty cents. Many o. 'n Ss

into shape, aud covered with common leather
