Milford managed to take a game
from Wilmington, on home ground,
on Monday last, by score of to 8.
Milford made three runs in the fourth
inning, while Wilmington did not
score until the ninth, when she made
as many and tied the score. In the
tenth Milford made one run aud
won the game. The game was very
prettily played at all points, and the
enthusiasm was uabOunded when the
score was tied. 1t was pitchers
battle from beginning to end,in which
SprOgell, the Milford pitcher, took the
lead, striking out IA of the heavy bat
ters of Wilmington's team, and allow
ing them to make but four hits, while
Anderson famed out but seven of the
Milford boys, and gave them SIX hits.
This victory did not change the rela-
tive positions of the clubs. but it put
Milford right on top of Wilmington
for second place. The score by in-
nings:
Milford, 600 90 % 0 IA
Wilmington. 100000 O-3
Frank f. Kelley, president of the
Delaware State League of last season,
came down with the Wilmington team
on Monday ana spent the time pleas
antly with his many friends in this
town. Frank is a base ball enthusiast,
and what he does not know of the
game, is scarcely worth knowing.
The Smyrna club has gone up. She
was rather short lived, having only
been playing about three weeks, and
she was not an expensive team either
She was at the foot of the list, having
won but one game out of six played,
Which made her but 1855. The people
of Smyrna would not support such
team, and it is not to be wondered at,
as she was certainly out of her class
in the League and could not expect
to win the pennant-or even stand
towards the top.
Milford and Camden play League
game at Milford this afternoon at 8
o'clock. You should not fail to at
tend, as this is the last game of the
schedule, and it may prove the last
game OF the League. Milford is ready
to play until September, but we fear
for Que or two Of tile teams in the
League, and if they should disband,
thea there would not be any League.
Encourage the boys by your attend
ance to-day.
Wilmington played at Camden on
Tuesday and won by score of 3 to 0.
Thegsme was prettily played through
out, but Camden could not hit Fefel,
the Wilmington pitcher
Doyer defeated Milford, at Dover,
on Wednesday, by score of to 2.
AS is usual, Milford lost through two
errors, one by KnOrr, at third, and
one by O'Hara, at second. Milford
h adj two earned runs while Dover did
not have any.

AT the farmers Institute meeting
held in Dover last Tuesday, the Opin-
ions expressed relative to the present
peach crop, indicate that the upper
and western borders of Sussex, and
the lower part of Kent counties will
produce the bulk of the peach crop for
this season. Two or three small
areas in Maryland will put out nearly
a full crop, but they will not materi-
ally affect the Delaware crop. This
indicates good prices for fruit at our
depots, from competition with buyers.
Milford being located near one of the
fruit enters, should be "a buying point
and no doubt will. But after all
everything depends upon the weather.
Should it continue to pour down rain
good fruit for shipping will be impOs-
sible 10 get.
Milford chronicle. [volume] (Milford, Del.) 1878-1974, 1889-07-26

AS peaches are now upon us, it is
safe to tell something about what
they will bring. There is not more
than One-fourth CT crop, or three
millions of baskets, and those who sell
for less than sixty cents basket are
short-sighted, to say the least. Peaches
Will bring good round price to those
who are fortunate to have them; so
do not he in hurry to sell, but wait
for good prices, which you will posi-
lively get.
