The National League Schedule
Is Given Out.
st. Louis Has Best Sunday and
Holiday Dates.
THE BROOKLYN CLUB
VIII Play Sunday Ball, Also
Pittsburg's Team.
New York Always Played on
This Day Heretofore.

New York, March 27.-The National
league baseball schedule is out. OF
the three great holiday dates St Louis
has the best assignments of the season.
For July 4, the best day in all the year,
she has Brooklyn-last years champion,
and certain contender for this years
highest honors-in St. Louis. That date
and attraction could not be surpassed
On Labor day, St. Louis will play in the
best Labor day town in the country,
Philadelphia. On Decoration day Tebeau
will play Brooklyn in Brooklyn, another
excellent assignment yet the poorest of
the three.
Brooklyn will be the only Eastern club
playing Sunday ball. New York always
played Sunday-sSnes heretofore. Pitts
burg, which played Sunday games in 1888
and then abandoned the practice. will
give Sabbath baseball another whirl.
1t was expected that both Brooklyn and
New York would try Sunday baseball in
the east, playing on the Jersey side, but
the schedule does not show it
The fact that almost every possible
combination OF clubs and dates under the
new order of things in an eight-club
league could not give anything but a
satisfactory dating is apparent when the
schedule is studied. There are no dead
towns, no BaltimoreS LOuisVilles. CleVe-
lands or Washingtons to waste time and
money in. Every city is a. live one, even
with an inferior team. Just now it looks
as if Brooklyn. with the best looking
the worst, will be the poorest towns in
the league.
