The Bold Butcher and the Ball
of Base.

The butchers of Sedalia are contem
plating the formation of base bal
club, and there is considerable enthu.
s'asm among the valiant wielders Of
the cleaver aud the meat saw over the
matter. This may be Judged by, the ex.
preston of one OF them at the market
house this morning, when he averred
that he had rsther see game of bal
than 90 to a bushel of Fantasma's
Aud that is drawing it pretty strong,
when it is remembered that the Han
lon show is the best of The kind that
travels.
lit must not he im-
sgined for moment that
the butcher boys aud men are II It
in earnest about the club, for they
are undeniably so, and The leading
spirits in the enterprise promise to
produce a nine that will not knock
the socks off of the "Katy" and the
Chicago" and aggregaiions of that
caliber, but they propose to keep the
flies away from any club that come TO
conclusions with them oil the field of
the cloth of green.
The composition of the club has not
yet been fully determined on. nor
have the positions of the players been
yet decided. A uniform has also to
be selected, AMI a name. The pro-
meters of The club repudiate
the suggestion that they call
it the ''sedalia spare-ribs,"
or the "Queen City Tender
loins." They consider themselves as
meaning business, and anything sar-
castle is repealed with scorn. They
also wish it understood that any jocose
suggestions as to the positions of play
ers are i'm the nature of an indignity,
such, for instance, as placing our
worthy ex-Mayor Hickman in as short
stop, or the dignifed Dave Enrich as
base runner for less lengthy-legged
players.
In fact, the butchers resent the in
situation that the home run may be
made by the boys on their mustangs.
and that the ball will be caught out
on the fly in the inevitable basket
which accompanies the boy and the
mustang.
The boys in the butcher line pro-
pose to organize a good base ball club
and by practice make it very interest
ing for any nine that may come against
them.
