Text	Groundkeeper Dick Pearce is congratulating himself that that portion of the work on the grounds of the New York Club Limited allotted to him to superintend is rapidly nearing completion. Almost the entire field, with the exception of a space of about twenty feet in width, which is to be devoted to a running track, has been filled in with excellent soil composed of half loam and the balance of sand to the depth in some instances of twenty inches. Dick's thirty years experience in base ball has given him a good insight as to what a ball ground should be and it is safe to say that when he gives the word that the grounds are fit to play on they will be in as near perfect condition as new grounds can be placed.
