The Bostons have received the championship flag awarded them by the Championship Committee of the Professional Association, and it is now on exhibition at their headquarters. It is a handsome affair, being thirty feet in length and ten feet wide at the end next to the pole. The flag has a broad white centre, with edges of red, and bears the following inscription in letters of blue: “Boston–1873-1874–Champions of the U.S.” This flag is the property of the Club, which they will fly the ensuing year, together with the silken whip-pennant, the property of the Association, of which they are the custodian.
