Claiming to be unable to bring the Lam
caster team on to play, Miss Lizzie AR
ling's nag yesterday, cancelled her
engagement to pitch against the West
New York Field Club tomorrow, at the
Niles avenue grounds. Instead, Manager
Mersheimer has arranged a game for his
club with the Pacific A. c. team, OF Jer-
sey City. The Pacifcs gave the West
New FORKS a good fight several weeks ago
losing by a score of 10 to 9. As the Pa
ciics' players have improved in their
work all season, tomorrow's game should
be a good one.
The Hobokens will be opposed by the
Arlington Athletic Association tomorrow
on the St. George Cricket Grounds, and
the game should prove interesting. The
Hobokens have been kept pretty hard at
practice by Manager Garrettson in order
to overcome a few bad points in their
work with the result that they are play
ing a good, snappy game nowadays, n
when the Arlington aggregation meets
them there will be a battle royal. The
Arlington team is made up of some of the
crack old time leaguers and the home
team has q few of the same class with
them. Some players who met years ago
in the race for the pennant will meet
tomorrow when there will be no such
goal but one just as good, the game for
the game.
There will be the usual preliminary
game between the Hudsons and the An
chors, two clever amateur teams that
have an old score to settle.
The Pacifcs are playing the Puritans
of Newark this afternoon on the Johns
town avenue grounds, and it will be good
practice for them in their game against
the West New York team tomorrow. The
Puritans were taken on at the last mo-
ment to fill the place left vacant by the
Montclair A. C. The latter were booked
in the early part of the week, but were
released at their own request to play a
deciding game in a series they a on
at present. The Puritans are clever
players and nave a number Of friends in
their own city. but the Pacifcs are now
playing the game in a manner that makes
it safe to predict success for them.

cial guidance of James E. Sullivan, Sec
