• Mike Kelly's threat to
put green stockings on the Cincinnati
Association club was no joke. The Cincinnatis,
in their games with the St. Louis Browns, are
wearing blue uniforms with green stockings. The
make-up is a good one, and the Kelly men look
well on the field. |

will be there to-morrow to greet Mike Kelly and
his men. President Von der Ahe returned home
last night. President Renau and other officials
of the Cincinnati Association team will leave
to-night to witness the game between the Browns
and the Cincinnatis to-morrow. |

• The fences and stands at
the new American Association park will be ready
for the opening of the season next Saturday, but
it is hardly likely that the graders will have
the grounds ready to play on by that time. The
bad weather has held the contractors back in
their work. If there is good weather from now on
until next Saturday everything will be ready for
the opening. President Renau said yesterday "it
will make little difference to us whether the
park is ready or not at the stipulated time. (Unreadable)
will do is to switch the opening series from
here to Columbus and then when the park is ready
have the Columbus team come here and pay us back
those games. |
