Kept From Playing First

PLAYERS PARADE THE
STREETS BEHIND BAND
Teams Were Hopeful to the Last
Minute OF Crossing Bats,
and the Procession Goes
to Park, but the
Rain Never
Stops.

Sore disappointment was the lot OF
the fans yesterday, for the wayward
clouds punched over Richmond during
the morning and proceeded to send
down q miserable drlzzle that killed
all chances Of Richmond and Roanoke
opening the Virginia League season at
Broad Street Park.
Up to the last minute the manage
ment was hopeful Of having the game
played, and the parade was pulled OF
per schedules; but the rain continued to
fall throughout the line of march, and
was coming down heavy when the vehi-
cles drew up in front OF the ball park.
The result is that the first league
game in Richmond will be played to-
morrow, the weather permitting. and
as it will be Easter Monday. as large
crowd should be in attendance as
was promised yesterday. II the day
Is fair and warm, even a larger gath
ering may be looked for, because IL 1t
had not rained the weather yesterday
would have been disagreeable for both
players and spectators, keeping away
many fans.
In their dashing new uniforms the
Richmond and Roanoke squads gath
cred at the City Hall at 2:30 o'clock
yesterday afternoon. Half an hour later
they entered closed carriages, and, still
| hopeful of game, started the pro-
ccssion. with the Blues Band in the
lead.
| The line of march was down Tenth
Street and out East Cary, then back
down Main Street, up Ninth and out
Broad Street to the park All along
the way the heroes OF the diamond
were greeted by cheering. hand
waving throng, standing in every door
way and looking out from every VIM
dow. Chief Rooter Sydnor met the
parade In front of his store with wav-
ing flags and changing bells. Tbs
small boy spied his favorite player and
ran along the side OF the carriages
with joyous shouts.
AT the park a small number of fans
had gathered, but they looked as hope
less as the water-soaked Old Glory,
