Yesterday afternoon a large crowd
assembled at the Schuetzen Park, for
the purpose Of witnessing a match
game of bssc hall between the cham
pion Quickstcps, OF This cIiy, and lne
T. II. Berry club, of Chester.
She Quicksteps appeared with their
strongest team and played splendid
game throughout. They made stren-
nous effort to prevent their opponents
from getting single run, and in this,
as the score shows, they were well
nigh successful. Their fielding was
sharp and close, and only three good
hits in the eighth innings, enabled the
Chester club to get in three runs. Laf.
ferty pitched with unusual vigor, and
the fine playing of the rest of the nine
rendered the game in many respects,
one Of unusual interest.
The visitors flelded In an ordinary
manner, but were unable to do any
thing at the bat. The following is the
