The St Helena Spirit
Last Sunday eveniug after the ball
game, the rough condition of tha ball
grounds which are now in Use, was being
discussed, a St. Helens gentleman men"
tioned the fact that the grounds her ia
town should be put in condition, feaccd,
and a grand sUnd built. There were
only a few people standing around bat
twenty-6ve dollars was promptly sub
scribed toward the purpose by th fol
lowing parties: H. R. Cliff, IS; H.
Morgus, 3; Jack Laffertr. 15; Jack
Black. S; A. J. Deming, 15. No further "
effort has been made to obtain money for '
the purpose, but doubtless inside of a
couple of weeks the games will bsj played
on the diamond here in town.
