SPORTS OF THE DAY. f
o
the turnstiles of twplvo league
liases ball cltlei there- paused this season
2,855,6.11 persons , which , though slightly
exaggerated , U a. fair estimate ot the rootcri'
who saw the national sport this year The
eastern attendance ran ahead of the western
over 100,000. llaltllnoro plajed before the
larscit number of people , while Iloiton
ranked second and Now York third. New
York City turned out the largest number of
( .pcctniorii , with Cincinnati second nnd Hos-
ton third Ono significant fnct Is that the
homo attendance of Daltlmoro wan very poor ,
the team standing sixth lu the list.
On the financial end Doston will come out
rn top. Tli9 fiO-CEiit admission there tells Uio
tpp. | In other'titles In the teagun the num
ber of 25-ccnt seats Is four times greater than
Boston. Hut GOO 25-cont seats are field at the
South KnA grounds dally , nnd three are cut
elf on holidays. In New York 1,000 are sold
nt thr > popular admission , In Unmmorc nearly
8,00 ! , ' , nnd No on throughout thu league.
The average attendance In Doston was
uroalor than In the history of the game. U
Is snld tunt the management will clear close
to $150,000 , New York will make at least
$100000. Ono thing about New York Is that
It has the best piilnf ? grand aland In the
league , huicd the large profits Of the vvcst-
orn teams , Cincinnati will make the moat
money. Conseivatlvo estimates saj that
$60,000 will bo netted Washington 'vlll make
something llko $20,000 The QuakclM started
cut to make money , but thu pom work of
the team toward the latter end of the suanon
rut the attendance down to nil Iteach and
Itogors , | f they break even , will bo lucky this
jcir.
Over last season Cleveland's profits fell off
one-half. In " 95 iind " 9G , when the team had
a chance to win the pennant , the club made
n lot of money. Plttsburg made but llttlo
money Louisville did bcttci than last jeur ,
and St. Louis made no money. Uelow Is the

for Action. ,
The October number ot The State's Duty ,
a St. Louis publication devoted to good roads
and good government , contains a contrlbu-
lon from Mr. H. W. KIchardRon ot Omaha on
the subject of goods roads Mr Richardson
irlofly dlsciiFiics the advantages ot Improved
ilghways , particularly In the west , nnd de
tails the growth of the movement to mouse
iiibllc sentiment on the subject. Ho writes
as follows-
"Tho highest commendation Is duo to the
author of the "Oood Holds Resolution , "
adopted nt the Transmtsstaslppl Commercial
congress at Its recent session , and the con
gress should bo congratulated that It his
nl < en up this necessary and Important work
that should bring renewed Interest and hn-
poitancc to Itself and lasting benefits to the
states of the transmls3le lppl country. This
congress must nnd will by force of the ac
tivity of Interest developed give much great
er consideration to the subject at Its next
session. The resolution Is the Initiative for
radical work for the bed ) Tor jears wo
mvo tojed with the political wand tint by
: ho magic ot protective tariffs , free trade ,
[ reo silver or sound money wo must rise or
Tall In our efforts for progress nnd prosper
ity. The recent long period of depression
and our experience thereunder has punctured
many of our financial ( henries , broken the
spell of our political conjurors and maglchns
nnd brought us back to the "terra flrma" of
practical things The people * of the trans-
inlsslsslppl region are better utilitarians
than ever before The subject ot good londa
Is one of practical utility , the moat promi
nent ot Interstate Improvements and the llfo
nnd future hope ot commercial prwperlt ) and
social advancement. The blcjcle , the mo-
torcjclo horseless carriage the electric ex
press , the extension of the mall delivery
system In the rural districts , the fruition of
the good roads agitation of the past must
revolutionise sentiment In behalf of public
hlghwajs nnd good roado to the extent thit
within a tew jears we shill behold a mar
velous transfoi motion In this direction The
tlmo Is ripe for action. It seems strange
that It should require so much labor and ef
fort to bring about this plain , useful and
necessary reform. Why Is not the rurallto
eg much entitled to the benefits of good rotdb
as the urbanlto Is to good streets' Why
should ho not study the ccoiiomj , ease and
comfort of transportation" Distance Is meas
ured by the ease and rapldljy ot transit The
problem for the farmei is , not how to get
his family Into town for the benefit ot
schools , churches and soclet ) but to make
easy , comfortable and safe 4tho way that
brings schools , chut dins and social advan
tages to the farm The siv.ings.by geol roads
ot time , labor , wear and tear or team , vehicle
and drlvet. the economy In the transpoit of
farm products to market when fairly estimat
ed In dollars and cents presents on enor
mous sum for his consideration Whore the
roads are run on section lines why not adopt
a system of numbering q/id lettering cross-
"cctlons so that a hqmo In the coun
try could bo as easll > found or directed
to as a street corner In n cit } or town ? Is
there any reason wh > pfoplei living In the
country should not IwveinnJ enjoy modern
conveniences and comfoitp as , eisllj accessi
ble to them as to the citjr Inhabitant ? "Good
Heads" and "National Highwajs1' would
bring suck favor and advantage to rural life
that It would In a largo measure polvo thq
question ot tire overcrowded condition ot
our cities and towns and -would effectually
Interdict the breeding of tramps , loafers and
discontents li would foster and encourage
Individual efforts and Independence and make
the masses of our people self-sustaining and
content. Active work begun and carried foi-
vvvud In tlie construction of good reads and
highways would afford emploj ment to a large
noitlon of our Idle and dependent laboring
men. To my view It could not be a difficult
or Insurmountable work to secure In the
state a wldo and extended s > stem ot good
roads or a governmental sjstcm of "national
highways" Municipalities , towns and vil
lages have lu recent > ears built and main
tained miles of expensively paved streets ,
avenues and boulevards and these are each
jear Improved and extended. The sjstem of
taxation providing-revenue for these munici
pal Improvements 'Is ' laid with such easy
equitable payments covering Ions periods of
tlmo that it does not fall as a burden upon
the property owneis , but enables them to
pay for the Improvement out of the biibse-
qucnt benefit derived to their propuity. These
( principles , together with deserved state and
national all applied to the construction and
maintenance of good loads and highways
would solve the difficult and formidable flnan-
c'al ' pioblem Involved. Nature has favored
my own state , giving It many beautiful
toads easily turcylked ami kept In good con
dition by proper drainage , the soil being
sjch throughout a great portion of the state
that It packs firmly where properly piked ,
forming a kind of solid gumbo or rubber
suiface , which Is easy , tpringy and delight
ful to drlvo upon. The streams are sub
stantially bridged and with the exception of
a very few months In the ye-ar our people I
are fortunate In the enjoyment of good natural - '
ral roads ami hlghvvajs ,
Douglas county , within which Is the city
ot Omaha , has a very creditable system of
uubllo rosds. It contains moio than COO
miles of naved turnpike and giaded roads
with a fine sjstem of bridges under the im
mediate charge and direction of the Boaiil I
ot County Commissioners , with ample funds
provided by direct taxation The board for ]
ton jears or moio has been composed of en
thusiastic , energetic and piattical men , who
have given close study and attention to the
subject. Tno "Transmlsalsslppl and Interna

tlnuo for five montlu. All roads will lend
