BASE BALL NOTES.

The League played its last game
Wednesday between New iberia
and Plaquemine which was given
to Plaquemine in score of Is to z,
q give away-bad ball-unsatisfac-
tory all round. The game which
counted most to decide to whom
would get the pennant. We
are sorry that our team should
have grown SO suddenly weak, and
allowing such a score to pile up
against her. OF course Plaquemine
is entitled to the pennant, which
will be decided as soon as the com
mittee will meet.
We understand that although
the League has disbanded, that six
or seven of our team intend re-
naming here and with the assis-
tauce Of some local players carry
on series Of games, but we don't
think it will be paying invest
meut as there will be no enthnsi-
asm Of the public.
Professional ball is alright, when
conducted on sound principles,
when the public are counted
for something, and especially
whom the crowd have some interest
in home team in which they are
directly interested, financially or
otherwise. When the base ball
lovers want to have y team
that respects it's supporters enough
to at least put up good stiff game
to win the pennant, which is in its
grasp they are entitled to the sup
port Of the people.
Our team has been carried under
heavy expense and the public
contributed literally towards its
maintenance aud it is no more
than n just reward that under such
easy conditions that the public
expected different retprns.
Although our team has given us
some good ball, most of the good
games were won on home ground
bat we did not get sufficient nun.

different results. Simply because
when We pay big salaries to all con.
