Baseball Prospect Encouraqino.

Messrs Locke and Salisbury. who are
the leaders in the baseball revival had
a good day, Thursday. They We're out
on the street with subscription papers
a little while in the afternoon and did
a good business, securing promises for
a good sum to be paid weekly. A flock
of kilograms was sent out in the morn
ing and before night they had PAYERS
enough located to man a whole league
One whole team, which included some
men well known here, was willing to
Jump in Il body and don the Water
vile uniform. Well-known players
were found all over the lot who were
willing to draw their salaries here.
The uniform question was settled in
satisfactory manner. When the as
sociation disbanded the team, last
season, the uniforms were purchased
by those who took hold and managed
the team for a time, the funds being
provided by chipping in out of their
own pockets. When the season was
finally closed they fell to these men
who have had them in their possess
sion during the winter. The majority
of those having money in them were
willing to turn them over to the team
this year, as their subscriptions. Some
objected a little, but there is little
doubt that the suits will be given all
right. It is the present intention to
get the team into snaps just as rapidly
as possible and players will be sent
for just as soon as there is money
enough in sight to pay them and judg
ing by the success met, yesterday, this
will not be very long. 1t is also the
purpose to have as good 4 team if
not better than the one. last year, so
that fast ball may be eXpected.
