Editor Morning News: I ask for

pleasure of standing, simply because
there was not room on the bleachers to
sit down. Now when the home team

to the park to give up several quarters

have to stand up or hit the outside"
am pretty certain that hale a thou
sand enthusiastic rooters will back me
up when I say that new bleachers
should be built at once. ana should be
placed on the right hand side of the
diamond, where the scoreboard is. BY
building bleachers on that side and
putting the score board on the top, it
will add greatly TO the comfort of the
patrons of the game. We will have
the shade of the top row &c help cool
off things. The sun will rot shine in
our faces, and we will run no risk OF
having our eyo balls melted BY put

are several hotels within walking dis
lance. And the fashion of the whole
CITY gets in this vicinity with no great
infrequency. So the upshot of it all IS
that great many people have to stand
on this corner while waiting for a
change of cars. and many more pass
here on their way to and from various
important places. WILL these people
