SCORE by INNINGs.

Tomorrow on the st. George Cricket
Grounds the Hobokens will play against
the Cuba x Giants. The Giants are
clever players and have won victories
from teams tina have attained front po-
sitions in the semi-professional class. They
prove a great drawing card also wherever
they play, because there is much amuse-
ment ii watching the farcical antics OF
Clarence Williams and his tribe of coacn-
ers. It will take all sorts of coaching
and above all clever all around work to
carry the colored contingent to victory IN
the game tomorrow. Manager Smith mas
arrived at the conclusion that his team
had weak spots. Some of the players
work did not suit him and while he likes
to bring good teams to array his men
against he also likes to enjoy the feeling
of victory occasionally. The result was a
grand shakeup all around, and three OF
the old Hoboken players I've been re-
leased. Jack Burke, who has held down
the job of catching for the past few years,
will now be able to sit in the grand tand
and observe how OqNeil of the Orange
team discharges the duties of his Old
position behind the bat. Westervelt viii
no longer bwirl in the box and will be
succeeded by Cronan, while Fred Smith
Of Princeton will fill O'Connor's place as
shortstop.
The Pacific Athletic Club is playing
against the Ter Eycks of Brooklyn this
afternoon on the Johnston avenue
grounds. The game should be a good one
as the Pacifcs and the Ten Eycks are
about equal in ability. The Ten Eycks
hold about the same position in the esti-
nation of the fans of Brooklyn as the
Pacihcs do the fans of his county, which
is saying much. The Pacifcs are playing
good ball these days and with the extra
practice they hay had this week they
should give a fine exhibition of the game
as it is played.
Early in the afternoon tomorrow the
Hudson Athletic Club of Hoboken will
play the Erie team OF that city at the
Cricket Grounds. The idea of Manager
Smithson of giving two games in the one
day has become quite popular and many,
especially the local followers, are as
anxious to see the preliminary game as
they are to see the feature of the day.
The Laidlaws are anxious to arrange
games with all teams in the county
averaging nineteen years of age. Address
challenges to Frank TRAM, No. 11 Laid
law avenue.
The West New York Field Club team is
to try conclusions with the New Haven
Gu team tomorrow at the Niles avenue
grounds in West New York. This should
be a rafting game and will be well worth
seeing as the New Haven aggregation is
a strong one this season and they have
shown to the entire satisfaction of several
good New England teams that they know
the essential points of the game. Manager
Mersheimer has been strict with his play
ersr lately and they rave been practicing
hard and showing good results of their
work. The game with be called at $3.50
O'Clock.
The New Jerseys have made up a list
of the teams they wish an opportunity to
defeat. It includes the Orioles, Atlantics,
Bostons, Red Lights, Champions, Domes-
tics, Nantes and Libertys. Address Cor
nelIus Sweeney, No. $50 Grand street.
ST. Bridget's Lyceurn team will try con-
illusions with st. Paul's Lyceum team to-
morrow afternoon on the st. Paul's
grounds. This game should prove an in
teresting one as both teams are about
evenly matched. St. Bridget's has won
one game and st. Paul boys will make
a good bid to even mp matters.
The Yorks will play the Ralstons at the
Ralston outing tomorrow. The players Of
the Yorks are:-Thomas johnson, right
field; George Lambert, left field; Fred
Dack, centre field; Samuel Manuel, first
base; Samuel Robinson, second base;

ton, short stop; John Norton, pitcher;
