Hopes were high and en-a supply of ; thusiasm boundless. Doth came down jines of the with a dull thud. Someone venturedthe assertion that Des Moines could not play ball. Evidently that some one counted his chickens before they werehatched. But after all there is nothing in the news which came from Des Moines Sunday evening to cause unhappiness among the cranks. Jacksonville has played three games in the championship contest and won two of them. What more could be asked. It cannot be expected that Manager St rout hers and his men will win everygame. It looks as if neither Jacksonvilleor Des Moines played very good ball Sunday. Hut they did play Saturday. And Jacksonville did win by a score of 4 to 1. Hopes and aspirations were on the mountain top Saturday night. Now they are in the valley of despair. That is just like this town. The baseball thermometer is very sensitive, you know. Jacksonville plays at Omaha May 7, H, and 1*. Omaha is said to have a pretty strong team and the result there will be something of a criterionof what Manager St rout hers and his*men can accomplish.
