', KILLING IHE GAME Plans Shape for Burial of the National Pastime Here, This Season. KNOCK OUT LEAGUE BALL Richmond is the only city of its size in the middle west, probably in the entire country, that it not represented in some professional base ball league. The fans here long for league ball, but they sign in vain, so far as the Richmond Amusement company, which controls the lease on Athletic Park, is concerned. This organization will this year again attempt to cram inde pendent baseball down the throats of the disgusted lovers of the sport. This operation was attempted last year, but with poor results, as the company disbanded its outfit of relics before the season was a third over. This year the company, which has no desire to repeat the independent baseball experiment, on its own hook again, but which still desires to keep Richmond off the professional baseball map, will lease its plant, probably, to either a Dayton semi-pro manager, named Huckens, or to a colored team, the Giants. A decision will be reached at a meeting tomorrow night. Richmond, as "a baseball town, got a knockout last year. Verily, it appears the plans have been shaped this season'for a burial. (Trade papers for undertakers please copy.) TO REORGANIZE LEAGUE Saturday Afternoon Games . Will Be Played by the Local Amateurs. ' The City Baseball league will be re-organized at a meeting Monday evening. Saturday afternoon games will be played at Athletic park and Easthaven. Officers will probably be elected Monday evening and, with the exception of the president, it is probable that all of last year's officials will be retained. Mason Byers, the president last year, feels that he does not have the time to devote to the league that the president should. Both the Fountain City first team and the high school team of that place lost in basket ball at the Y. H. C. A. gymnasium last evening, r The Y. M. C. A, team won from the Fountain City Hrst team by the score of 32 to 25 in a rery poorly played game.

DESIRES SELL E. G. Hiil & Company Make Offer to City, But Price Regarded Steep. SECURE DUMPING GROUND Fred Lemon, in behalf of the E. G. Hill Floral Company, appeared at the office of the board of works this morning and requested that the city either buy the barn owned by Mr. Hill, which is located on the city's property, adjoining Glen Miller park, or order its removal. The ground, consisting of about two acres, has been rented by Mr. Hill for some time for $2." a year. However the lease expired the first of the year. Several years ago Mr. Hill bought the barn from the city for $123. tie has since made extensive improvements, however, and now asks $."K)0 for the structure, The city feels that this price is too high. The matter was taken under advisement by the board. The ground will probably be converted into plot to be used for the purpose of raising food for the animals in the glen. The board approved the agreement to rent the vacant lot at the corner of Eleventh and Main streets from William Grottendick for $25 a year, the place to be used by the city as a dumping ground where snow may be hauled during the winter. Gravel and ashes will also be dumped on that lot despite the fact that it is one of the principal corners of the city. A petition was presented to the board signed by William H. Peterson, requesting that a cement sidewalk be constructed on the west side of South Second street between Main and B streets and for a curb and gutter on both sides of South ,vSecond street from Main to A streets. The matter was taken under advisement. BASEBALL FOR WEBSTER Little Town Has New Park and Will Open Season on April 17th. (Palladium Special) Webster, Ind., March 17.

DAY WASOBSERVED Green Was Plentiful in Richmond Today, Big Sales Being Reported.

MANY FESTIVITIES HELD St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, was remembered in a fitting manner by Richmond citizens today, the decorative scheme being carried out even in the lunch menus and dishes. Green carnations and shamrocks were as popular as ever, possibly more so, for the dealers reported very large sales. A number of social functions were given this afternoon in honor of St. Patrick, and several others will be given this evening, the most important of which will be the entertainment at St. Mary's school. The numbers of this program will include Irish songs and recitations. Both the adults and the children will take part. Many a potato patch of small proportions was planted today, it being commonly believed that Irish potatoes planted on St. Patrick's day will yield better crops both in quality and quantity than those planted later. WANT BETTER ROAD Residents of Center township, and more particularly those along the National road are interested in the proposed improvement of National road from West Fifth street to the Center township line, under the three mile gravel road law. In event the road is constructed and it is approved of by the public generally, the Center town ship residents will endeavor to have the road through Center township improved in a similar manner. Centerville wants to get nearer Richmond. The residents believe by this means many suburban homes will be erected between Richmond and Centerville. An effort will also be made to have the traction company institute thirty minute service during the day. 7 EMPLOY HER (Palladium Special) Cambridge City1, Ind., March .17.
