Blue Grass League Opens
MAY s.

All lovers OF good, clean athletics in
this county are greatly interested in the
opening of the Blue Grass Ball League,
in this city, on Thursday, May 5. The
opposing teams for the opening game
will be Richmond and Winchester,
which fought each other for last years
pennant, and the old fight will be taken
up where it was left off last season.
Both teams have been greatly strength
ened, the best of last years material
being retained and the weak places have
been filled by men of high class. Win
chester will have the famous pitchers,
Tony and Burden, as we'll as fielders,
Barney, Schmidt, Ellis and others. They
have recently purchased from the Louis
vile American Association splendid
infielder in Callahan.
Richmond, with Maloney at the head
of its team, expects to go after the pen
nant from the start. Olson, the famous
Louisville star, will appear at shortstop
and his appearance on the field last week
completed an infield which the Rich
mond management believes is the best
ever seen in the Blue Grass. We have
eight pitchers, six of whom are in splen
did condition, aud Manager Maloney be-
lieves ne has succeeded in getting to-
gether the best twirlers in the League.
Among the list are Hedges and Thomas.

from Winchester, Beattyville, Stanford
and Corbin and all intervening points, on
all branches, TO Richmond for the great
opening on May s. and for a special train,
returning after the game, from Rich
mond to Beattyville.
The game will, as will all of them for
awhile, be called at o'clock, p. m, so
that visitors may have ample time to
catch their trains home. Pioneer Park
has been improved in many ways, and
its additional seating capacity will bet
