 Tomorrow afternoon, at ? o'clock, in Cincinnati, the first of the Worlds Series ball games will be started with some such announcement as heads this column, and the United States will turn it's eyes to the stadium where eighteen gladiatOrs of the horschide hre striving to prove tho mastery of half their number over the other half. We have adopted baseball as a nation al game, we have collected the great est segregation of players from every point in our possessions and there is no doubt but that our best team is perfectly capable of vanqushing that of any other country. For that req son we term the games about to be played, the "Word's Series" It is to decide the championship of the world.
 Doubtless before many years have passed by, other countries will have made great strides in the game and we will have a worlds series of base ball games which will actually amount to an international competition for the leadership in the sport. Our dough- boys in France, who mixed with all manner of troops from many lands, taught the game to their friends of an other race and found many who showed as much interest, and nearly as much skill at the sport as we have been accustomed to. Even the phleg- matic Ene1ishman yielded somewhat to the rage and condescendcd to take a hand occasionally. The game Is rather familiar to him in a sort of fashion, you know, he has played It swhen child, and knows it as 'round- ] CTS which is practically the same as our "Onc Old Cat.'... Founders is a popular pastime among the youth in the British country lands but the boy deserts it as he grows older and takes up cricket in lieu of the more strenu- ous game. But the soldier spread through the force of his own person. ality and delight in the pastime, genuine liking for the American game and it is certain that the re- turned troops will sponsor it in their native lands Following a timee for the attainment ot moderate excellence in the art of ball tossing in other countries there will come a challenge from theTn to meet our champions in a Worlds Series which should have many entries
 There is more than the usual amount of interest in the games which will start tomorrow among humanity all over the United States, due prob ably to the fact that outside distrac- tons are not as great as they have been and also to the desire for amuse- ment outside of the sCamy history of the war and troubles at home.
