will take place at the Fair Ground on
Tuesday afternoon, Nice groijinds have
b eu prepared and every arrangement
for comfort, and pleasure. The admis
sion price, we learn has been fixed at
■25 cents. If we may be allowed to of
i fer a suggestion, it is that the price be
reduced to JO cents. There are hun
j dieds of people willing to pay a dime
but a quarter is rather beyond the limit
1..f0r a base-ball game. The revenue at
ten cents will be vastly larger , than at
; a highe r price. The farmers and coun
try people will come with their families
to see a game in which they are so
much interested, but we doubt if many
aie able to pay a dollar or two for a
| few members of their families to wit
ness. We hope then-as an accommoda-.
. tiou to the public, and as ah ad van
tage (we think) ro the managers, that
the admission will' bs fixed at ten
