Enthusiast Thinks a Small League Would Pay. Editor News: 1 soticed in your pa per a suggestion that a small base ball league should be organized down this way next year and I think the idea is indeed a good one. Take for instance Brunswick, Sav annah. Charleston, Jacksonville, Fer nandina, and other cities near by. and I think the league could be made to pay. All the above cities turn out well to a baseball game, especially when there is some rivalry between file contesting clubs and to have them all racing for the penant J think the undertaking would prove to be a big success. Of course the cities could not afford to engage National and lea gue players, but they could get a goo many around here and a reasonable price who can play a good game of ball. The people would get greatly inter ested in the league and every, game would be well patronized. All of the cities are in a few hours ride of each other and therefore the railroad fare would not he very much. I think such a movement would meet the hearty approval of the lov ers of the sport and hope further steps will be taken to organize the league for next season. ENTHUSIAST. Money for Mrs. Maybrick.
