ternoon, when they will play game of bal
with the Columbia club.
The town club succeeded i'm defeating tho
Dauntless club, of Mt Joy, last Tuesday, an,
now feel anxious to give the champion anna
tuer club of Lancaster county trial. TIL,
want of practice IL the only draw back TO tn
success of our home nine, and this is tn
main cause of their defeat The only tim
the members of the club do any playin
together is the preliminary practice just be
fore match game commences. The materia
~ Of the club Is of good quality, but they wan
practice. The difficulty with getting tn
members together Is that four of the club ar
not residents of town and only come
town when game is to be played. On a,
count OF the increased expense attendant O
the bringing OF the Christiana club to tow
the management are compelled to raise tn
price OF admission to Is cents for tomorrow
game.
