"Watertown. July 23 (Via Wireless). How glad It makes me to hear that wire tlok the story of another fast game on ths dear old Jacksonville ball lot'. They tell me the ChampB played some ball, anil really I am Just about as much surprised as was that crowd of fans who watched the thirteen-round bout with the Pioneers. A continuance of this Fume sort of playing ought to boost the game at home, and my dope of jester-day ought to bear fruit with the fans.

The boys didn't win. but they kept the other fallows from doing the trick, and aave the fans a chance to feel a few thrills. That new nuin Donahue surely must be a Ho sure can sting that ball, and sting It hard. If he keeps hat up we'll let the nutation of his arm or his fielding go by the board. Even if he should fall to throw a man out now and then from the right field, he'll hat in a few runs to make up for any he allows to score.

Give him a fair trial. If he showed his caliber yesterday, he's good enough to hold a regular berth. Keally, now. you had a couple of umpires yesterday, and both of 'em worked like big league arbiters. Not a kick that was audible to the stands, and only once or twice did the crowd hoot a decision on balls and strikes.

Well, maybe we'll have some sport this season, after all, and even though we don't win the pennant. It's a pleasure to know that the fans get their money's worth, which they surely did yesterday. What! You're surprised to hear this from me? Well, didn I say that wheneva they deserved it I would boost as hard as anybody, but that I was alBO going to reserve the right to criticise when criticism was needed. Well, that's me. I am trying to be fair to ball plaver.
