BASE BALL REFLECTIONS.
BY OUR BASE BALL SPECIAL"

BY OUR BASE BALL SPECIAL"
One defeat out of six games is not so
bad.
Give the Doylestown boys a good re-
ception.
The team as it now stands is the best
one this city ever had.
Don't jump on player for making an
error, they are not paid men.
We understand our boys were used
courteously, at Bristol, last Thursday.
Quite number of our people visited
Bristol last Thursday, to witness the
game.
Wolverton, that was too bad you did
not get credit of a two.base hit, as you
deserved it.
Some men who played such good ball
twenty years ago, should have trial at
once, as they are too precious to be let
run around idle.
Manager Closson says his team is going
to win tomorrow, and he says they will
also take the scalp of the Bristol boys
when they visit our city on the Goth of
June.
The Bristols beat the Richmonds, last
Saturday-score IS to 0. This club re-
fused to play the Bristol boys last season,
because they "onlY played first.class
clubs.
We are sorry to learn of the mishap to
DIR. Jewell, at Bristol, last Thursday,
while playing ball. He injured his hand
so badly that he will be unable to play for
some time.
Friend Watson, that 'big APPLE has
not grown yet. The crop, this season,
with us, will be small. We thought we
would be able to purchase it at our mark
ct, but could not.
Manager Closson deserves to be COM
plimented for arranging dates with so
many flrst-class clubs, to play here this
season. We hope the people will turn
out, aud also be generous, as you oil
know the expenses are heavy.
The following are the players and posi-
lions of the Association Club, for to-
morrow: S. Thorne, centre field; Trusty,
Sd base Callan, short stop; Wolverton,
lst base; Uplander, catcher; Randolph,
I'd base; Schenck, left field; Hurley,
pitcher F. Ely, right field.
The Bristols have defeated this season
such professional teams as the Whining
tons, of the Atlantic Association Leba-
non and Cuban Giants, of the Interstate
League Mason's Professionals and the
Richmonds, two first.class teams, of Phil
adelphia, and yet some of our people kick
because our boys lost one game to them.
Tomorrow the famous Doylestown Club
will be with us. This will be the second
game for the championship of Delaware
Valley. The game with the Bristols last
Thursday was the first. The game will
be called at $3.50 P. M, sharp. Tickets
can be had at the usual places, so purchase
them before you go to the grounds, to save
confusion.
The Lambertville Club went to Bristol
on Thursday last and received the first
coat of whitewash 1t has ever had since
its organization. Some people might think
our boys did not play good bail, but never
theless they did, as anyone who studies
the score viii see. Not until the fourth
did either side score. In this inning the
Bristols by punching two hits succeeded
in getting two runs and SO it was with
them all through the game. They were
lucky 10 placing their hits. Three times
Lambertville had men on second and third
bases, but were unable to get a hit to
bring them in. Hurley pitched good ball,
and Uplander caught one of his best
games his throwing to bases was fine.
The following is the score:
