IT Is as refreshing as a gin fizz to ind
h a great and good paper the Bos-
. ton Herald occasionally descending
from its lofty planes of philosophy to
discuss so commonplace, yet withal so
picturesque and absorbing a subject as
baseball. Here. too. as In everything
else the Boston Herald reveals its SD
perb optimism-in the great scheme OF
the universe, baseball. Boston baseball
that is. when subjected to r~atiocination
is perceived TO be an entity OF exhila-
rating qualities. or i'm other words IT IL
the stuff. The Boston club, we are OLD
lis a better equipped club I'm point OF
pitchers than 1t has been for several
years, II ever before. and 1t is superior
to any other club in its general fielding
strength. The Baltimores, Its chief
rivals of last year. have fallen on a
good deal i'm the capacity to win VIC
tories. and are not likely TO regain their
earlier prestige. The Cincinnatis, who
have forged to the head, are a decidedly
inferior club to the Bostons. IL we may
Judge from their manner of playins
when in this city last week. The Cleve'
lands are to be more dreaded as com
petitors; yet they are not the equals oil
the Bostons I'm batting and fielding ca
pacity taken together. The advent OF
Arson in New York may do sometime
to strengthen the really irst-class clu,
that city has this year. These Ave clubs
that we have mentioned are the onl!
serious competitors for the champion
ship. 1t is quite probable that Bostoi
will be at the head of the list before tn
present week." and so on.
The week ended. however. withou
Boston displacing Cincinnati. though
is true that Cincinnati dropped severs
pegs. The race between the leadin
clubs is remarkably close and were
not for the war excitement would be re
markably interesting. As IL is. the wa
seems not to be materially affecting III
attendance at the games. Wal or n
war. the American people must hav
their sport. as the crowds at the rae
tracks and ball grounds prove daily.
