tention to hits and errors. He is continually
originating new baseball ideas and working
chem out with his team.

The attraction of the day centered in the
contest of knights til ting. 1t was a great
scene when each of the knights rode for
ward to receive some chosen token from
his love before he entered the ring
The costumes of the knights were the f.
nest ever seen and in the hot sun shone re-
splendent in their variagated hues.
Duke of Netherlands rode down the
course on his famous charger and cheer
after cheer rent the air in his behalf.
Then Knight of Hatfield, who sat astride

TRADE OF THE VALLEY.

Baltimore contending with Philadelphia
for commercial supremacy in the valley OF
Virginia is Richmond's opportunity. The
people Of the Valley wish 10 trade with the
commercial, financial, and political capiial
of the Commonwealth. and men OF this city
wish such trade. But the system which has
prevailed In railroad construction and rail-
road operations says that neither wish
shall be gratifed. For this situation the
railroads merely are not 10 be held re-
sponsible. Ii is due partly 20 lack In
years gone by ofpublic spirit here which Is
now finding gratifying expression IN The
efforts Of the Chamber of Commerce and the
farmers Of the state working in harmony 10
bring about better state Of affairs.
Habimal carpers, theoretical phlloso'
pliers, and riders Of hobbies may see 1T to
take n reverse view Of the situation and
their wishes may father thoughts of disso-
nance between Richmond and the country.
But this makes no difference. The two i'm
pOrtant factors in the development OF VIZ
ginia are closely allied in every way, and
they seem determined to solve at last diff
culties which have existed for years. Here
are some of them:
Too few trains start from Richmond, and
those that do start leave too early or too
late 20 be Of material advantage to business
men or their customers. Business follows
the mail very closely, and when it is con-
sdered that a mail from Philadelphia may
reach Ilarrisonburg, for instance, several
hours ahead Of mail Of the same day from
Richmond, and that the Eastern Shore OF
Virginia is delayed many hours in receiving
mail from this city, the reasons for the
enforcement Of large volume of trade from
the state are very apparent. No Richmond
morning papers under present arrange
ments may reach Staunton until . o'clock
ih the evening and no afternoon paper until
the next morning. In conference with rail
road officials the committee OF the Chamber
of Commerce have been trying 10 remedy
these existing evils, but in the mean time sug-
cestions are being made looking to other Sc
lutions. Two very feasible plans for more
rapid communication between Richmond
and the Valley have been thought out by
students Of the situation. one is to build a
road IRON Quantico to Manassas, where a
junction may be had with the road running
TO strasburg and connecting with the Sh(D-
andoah Valley road and the Valley branch
Of the Baltimore and Ohio road. AnothC r
rs 10 run line from GordOnsville through
one of the gaps Of the Blue Ridge to Elton,
there connecting with contemplated road
extending to Harrisonburg. Whether or
not these plans will ever materialize cannot
DE stated, but, at any rate, Richmond must
get nearer the Valley, and get there as soon
rs possible. The welfare of the whole
State means the welfare Of the capital. and
the state will find Richmond ready to aid
in any plan for the betterment of both par
ties. While Baltimore and Philadelphia
are squabbling over the Valley, Richmond
should walk in and occupy the field.

agencies should, for the benefit OF those

improvement yet, and some such improve,

VIRGINIA AND PITTsBURG.

There is no public improvement which
could be made which would have a more
beneficial effect on the prosperity Of this
state than the construction Of the railroad
which IL 10 proposed 10 build between
Glasgow and Pittsburg In Pennsylvania.
The rapidly growing section of country
which lies at the head OF the Valley of Viz
ginia IL already connected with the West
by the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad,
which is now showing much OF that energy
In calling attention TO the resources Of the
country through which II runs, which has
made the Norfolk and Western Railroad
Company such an important agent in the
recent development Of Virginia. That part
