HERO or HOME TOWN.
Honors Paid to the Successful Base
 ball Player Down South.

When the professional base bal play CT goes home to his native village he is a man of mark, local celebrity. One such professional, long famous, says the New York Sun, is a native of little college town not far from Ma son and Dixon's line. He left his native place early to become a pro- fessionai pitcher, and for years his fellow townsfolk have watched his career with interest. When he has nothing else to do he comes pack to the village and loafs comfortably while his old neighbors work.
 Now and then he consents to take part in an out of season ball game at home, and then everybody who has time turns out to watch him. His goings and comings are chronicled by the local paper. Everybody in town knows when he is to go south for win ter practice, and most persons who take any interest in base ball know all about his engagements and the amount of his pay.
 It is his pay and his leisure that impress his neighbors most. Why" he gets three times as much as col lege professor" is common phrase in his native town, where college professor is regarded a well-paid man njoying soft snap.
 Not professional man in the com munity earns as much as the pitcher, and they all know it. So far as in- come counts he ranks along with the half dozen capitalists of the little com munity. There are families with big houses, ample grounds and carriages of their own whose annual expendi- ture are less than his. As to the hard working mechanics of the community half dozen of them put together hardly earn as much as the pitcher.
 This career, with its incidents of leisure and public fame, has made a great impression on the youth of the town. When the tall pitcher walks the village streets he is followed by scores of admiring and envious youth ful eyes. It happens that an old re- tired professional pitcher lives In the same town, managing store which he set up years ago on his savings. The presence of the active pitcher with ali the marks of ease and pros- perity and of his retired fellow pro- fessional living comfortably enough for 20 years after his early triumphs makes the base ball profession more than ever attractive to local youth.

Records will be smashed here, according to all reports, as some of the athletes who are coming will be here with that intention. The track will be put in excellent condition and everything possible will be done to make the games the most attractive of any that were ever held here. At least 500 people are coming from New Haven alone and all the surrounding towns and yil- lages will send in their quota. It is estimated that at the very lowest 1000 people will be present, and this may be stretched several thou sand more. The games will merit 1t.
