the city the honor some time ago to name
the finest vessel in the navy the New
York. This magnificent cruiser will be
the envy of all the natives in the world
when completed. Naturally, it was sup
posed that New York city would feel some
pride in the matter. The Herald started in
at once to raise fund of S. 900 to buy the
vessel set of silver plate. The Commercial
Advertiser announced that it would raise a
fund wherewith to purchase for the vessel
set of colors. Both these newspapers
have been appealing TO the city
for nearly three months. Through
the generous aid of some people, who
organized a concert, the Herald has finally
rounded up its fund, but the money for the
colors is still short. Nobody In this town
cares whether our name is perpetuated
through the navy, and very little, l
imagine, whether the government exists
or not. Suppose Mr.. Tracy had named
the cruiser after our beautiful Mohawk
Valley town, Canajoharie? How. that
town would have swelIed with pride, and
how promptly would her citizens have
come forward to provide her, not only
with set of colors, but with set of gold
plate for her officers mess-room. The
average New Yorker seems to be absolutely
Indifferent to everything save his own
selfish comfort, and in the struggle for
wealth cares for nothing save that which
gives him some temporary entertainment.
1t is not to be wondered at that all the
other cities in the country, filled with
pride and in love with their own growth
and importance, should feel a contempt for
the metropolis amounting almost to hos
tility. | don't blame 'em.

The Seattle Maroons and the West Seat
Tie Ewings opened the season of the Puget
sound Amateur League yesterday after
noon on the new West Seattle grounds in a
lively contest. that resulted in laurels
OF victory for the Ewings. The
infield was still very rough, but this did
not prevent the youngsters from putting
up clever article of ball, and with two or
three exceptions their fielding was excel
lent. The batting of both teams was
rather weak, and few of the players seemed
to have found their batting eyes.
Coffman pitched nice game for the
Ewings, allowing but five hits and strik-
ing out seven men. Hope started in to do
the box work for the Maroons, but was as
wild as Ed O'Neil in his most
harum-scarum days, and retired

the game in good style. The work of both
catchers was well done, especially that of

and did some throwing to second base
that would have done credit to profess
sional. Kenny made a nice running
catch of fly in center field, on which he
completed double play.
The game was the first of the season in
Seattle, and the bright sunshine brought
out good audience, which was liberal in
its applause. The score is as follows:

exhibition game between Portland and
Spokane was walk-over for the latter.
Portland was never in it. The game
demonstrated that Spokane has splendid
club, their team work showing up in ex-
cellent harmony. They batted Port
lands three pitchers hard and often. Hus-
ton was taken out of the box after two in
nings. Mains took his place and
pitched four innings, McNabb finishing
the game. Five hits were made off Hus-
ton, two of Main and eight off McNabb,
which included two triples and one
double. Klopf pitched six innings for
Spokane, and held Portland down to six
hits. Reccius then went into the box, and
by his slow, deceptive delivery had the
Portlands breaking their backs slashing at
the ball. Both Spokane pitchers were eff
fective. Portland's fielding was ragged in
two or three instances. Hits: Spokane
