Base Ball Items.

The Charleston team lett tor
home on the fast line this morning.
They will arrive about five this
evening, and will Immediately play
a team on the home grounds. This
late beginning of ball game ex-
cited some curiosity when a Review
man was informed of 1t, but when
told further that the same team had
commenced a game with GAINESVILLE
at home at $50, the climax OF late
ball playing seemed to have been
reached. Their regular hour for
calling play Is tour O'Clock, but
frequently the games are advertiser
for later hour.
The local champions leave In the
morning for GAINESVILLE, where
they play tomorrow and Saturday.
AS these will be the first games
PLAYED by Sistersville away from
home, the result will be awaited
with interest. ,
When the Charleston boys had
refreshed themselves with a good
nights rest, they did not think so
hardly of Globes" umpirlng, but
did think better of the team they
had been up against for two days
The manager quietly remarked to a
Review representative that they had
no license to get more than tair
share of the games from the new
champions.
Charleston came as the chal-
pions of West Virginia, and went
away In second place.
A convenient box on top OF the
grand stand for the use OF the
press and the official scorer would
not cost much and would be heart
lily appreciated. 1t Is difficult to
score or report ball game In the
grand stand or on a players bench:
The gentlemen who do either need
all the quiet they can get. 1t IS no
easy matter, and a convenient posi-.
ton away from the roofing and
cross comments would help them
b wonderfully and would cost but
little. They have 1t In most places.
Why not here?
The crowd yesterday made the
management happy, and right well
they deserve 1t. In the face OF two
wet days coming close together
near the opening of the season, the
shekels that flowed In yesterday
sent a thrill of satisfaction through
the financial end of the home
people:
We did not need Bero's home

body feel just little safer when 1t
