 Docs it ever occur to any of 70, people who attend the ball games tha baseball costs money? The boys thin that their entertainment is worth some thing and have been taking collections but are not over exhilarated by tn amounts they have gathered in. Base balls, bats, suits, bases, masks, proteo tor, and all ball paraphenalia, beside the incidental running expenses, cos money, and surely the boys who do tn sweating and keep you amused ougf not to be made to pay for them. Di up some mon. the next time the hs comes your way. The boys have wo three games out of four, and really a afternoon of baseball is worth at leas ten cents to every one, and if it isn't you don't go over there and watch i If you haven't got the price the boy are perfectly willing you should see th game gratis as they are charitably il clined. but if you are able drop in quarter, or at least ten cents, the ne1 time you watch the game. That $1. l collection from all those spectators las Saturday was absurd. Double ths several times at the next game. 9Th Lord lovsth cheerful givsr."
