PIace-SmYrna and Dover.

Place-SmYrna ana DoNers
About four hundred spectators saw the
Wilmington team out-play the Camden,
at the Union street grounds, Saturday
afternoon. One Of the principal features
outside of the playing, was fight in the
grand stand during the third inning. No
one was hurt and order was soon restored
by the police officers present.
The game itself was almost feature
less. The local team secured 3 lead in
the fifth inning and maintained it to the
end of the game. Camden had three men
retired in the fifth inning by triple
play. Shields knocked fly to ], 0'Don-
nell in the left field, who caught it.
Yogt was caught at second, and Bradley
was put out at home. Fefel was hit
rather freely by Camden at the beginning
of the game. but he soon settled down
and kept the hits scattered. During the
game Campbell, Wilmingtons well-known
second baseman, fell and dislocated q
small bone in his wrist, and was relieved
by McCafferty.
In the seventh inning Hilsey, the
visitors pitcher, retired in favor OF
Yeager. Vogt caught istless game
and several of Wilmington's runs are
due to his errors. The full score:
