HE base-eatl seasoa is aew so tar advanred that an Adequate conception caa be formed of the relative strength of ths contest-lag clubs. The Association race is more interesting than it has been for several seasons past, and it would be 8a extreme- difficult matter te nsme the pennant winner.

The Brooklyns have expended thousands of dollars In getting together a team of ball players, which, for Individual playing, surpass any club in the Association. The object of this was to win the flag, and while the Bridegrooms are making a gallant fight for first honors, they have encountered a very obdurate rival ia tle four-time champion club. St, Louis is playing its usual strong game, and still bold a comfortable lead ever the pennant-aa-4tirtng B. degrooms. (Both club 4 hra well equipped in batteries and fielding material: and the race between them for first place promises to be tbe most interesting that the Association has had for several seasons.

Early ia the race Cincinnati, the Athletics and even Kansas City, were candidates for tint place, but as th season advanced they gradually drifted to their level. Every one thought Kansas City waa the dark hone, from the start made by the Cowboys, but the Westerners have taken a decided drop, and they will be fortunate if they finish better than sixth piaoe. Tb Cincinnati people were so egoustia as to believe that the Reds had a chance for the pennant, but they have probably arrived at another conclusion. Baltimore has struck a winning gait, and tbe Orioles may yet be heard from. Cel-nmbus and Louisville are holding ap the last two place, and the chances are favorable far LeulsvlU remaining at th tail-end until the close.

Probably the season et 1888 will ga oa record as the most exciting and close ly-oo at ested fa the history of the National League. The three leading clubs are evenly matched, and from the present outlook it will be a nip aad tuck race nntil the wire ia reached la October. Beeton is holding the lead at present, but the bean-eaters have no mortgage oa the and they are liable to drop It at any time. Jim Hart's team is playing a remarkably strong game, however, and, if money will win the pennant, it will go to Boston. The club has no weak spots, and, unless misfortune overtakes it, it may finish at the head of the list.

Buck Ewing is urging the Giants on, and he says that the pennant must again go to New York. The ehampfbns down in the race In the early part of the season, bnt of late they have gained ground rapidly, and now they are but a few games behind the leaders. Philadelphia ia playing a steady game, and the Quaker City -club ts by no means out of the race. Cleveland, the League infant, which surprised the country by holding second place so long, has probably beld it for the last time this season, and the Babies ere now noon a toboggan slide which is gliding down the lull at a gait much too rapid to suit the Cleve-mnda. Anson and his colt have at last determined to win a few games, and they are galloping to the front in handsome style.

Washington and Indianapolis no longer have a desire for tail-end honors, and Pittsburgh is becoming a formidable rival for last place. The Pittsburgh Press publishes the following tatervfew with Anson, concerning himself: I am satisfied that the release or saw of players always hurts any club net np- at the top," said Capt. Anson, of Chicago, yesterday. This, I believe, is the principal reason for tha Lick of Interest taken in the game at Chicago. Of course we have been Playing poor ball or we would not have lost so many games.

The people at home think that our poor record is due to the fact that we have released so many men this sea-ton. I am blamed for poor management, but my day wdl come, and the people who are now roasting me will be my best friends. Anson will be the oracle he once was, and get more fame than ever. I have been in bad repute before, and I have pulled out to become a lion. Tbe principal difficulty I have had so far was that my pitchers were not aa elective as I thought they would be.

They are now coming round all right, and will be better as the season advances. I have not let one man go this year whom 1 would like to have back again. I have made mistakes, but no big ones this season. Mark Baldwin would be a great pitcher if he kerned how te eontrol tha bslh That is his weak point, and that was one of my reasons for letting him go." The most promising yonng baTJ player In Louisville Is George ShabeL catcher ef the Deppea Club, He is built for a baclc-sWp, and if he continues te 1m-prov at be baa the past season, he will certainly make a reputation oa the dia mond. Shabel is twenty-two years of age, compactly built, and bis actions behind the bat are somewhat similar to "Kid" Cross', lie is a conscientious play, er, and about tbe most reliable hitter in tbe Deppena Sharel has received several offers from minor League e.ub this season, but be preferred to wait until next year before signing to play professional ball.

He may be given a trial by the Louisville, nd, with experience, be will doubtless prove a valuable acquisition to the club receiving him. It Is not generally known that young O'Brien, the Cleveland twirler, whose mystifying eun-es have been a source vf worriment to the heavy batxmen of the League, is a protege of Tim Keefe," says the Sb Louis Star-Sayings. "O'Brien took to ball playing when quite young, and at a boy had developed into a fair pitcher. His first appearance ia a professional team was la 1885, when be signed with the Glens Falls team, of the Hudson Valley League, which team won tbe championship. While in Troy, he met Tim Keefe, who was then oa the Troy team.
