’ARK TO BE CLEARED.
You’ll have to hand It to Mayor
Moore and the Commission. For the
benefit of the public at large, and
has ball enthusiasts in particular,
will state the reason for handing
this “catcher's mitt” is that the
mayor will let contracts, within the
next few days, for the clearing oil of
one block of Recreation park for
baseball grounds. It is needless to
mention that the job will bo well
done, and when completed the
grounds will lie under the supervi
sion of a board of trustees, equally
competent. In other v.orda, “spring
lia3 came,” and with it the baseball
season, and as the board of trustees
are contemplating improvements
which call for quite an expenditure
of money, the brothers will now
pass among you.”
