A Nuisance

Baseball in Buena Vista has become a nuisance, and we hope the council will 
enact an ordinance prohibiting any games played within the incorporation.  The 
white boys have about given it up, but the Negroes play all day long when they 
should be at something more profitable.  Even on the afternoon that Dr. Baker 
was buried they were yelling like a lot of hyenas.  It is a nuisance and the 
town council should allow no games, either white or colored, within the 
incorporation.
