A very good and level pitch had been
prepared on the turf at the rear of the
premises, where excellent practice was
INDUCED in upon single wicket with
netting, each player being given ex-

All were most enthusiastic, some in
good form, and even Barrett, the half

given his turn and showed that he had

A very sociable and pleasant time
was had and after play, tea and other

ton, was served "al fresco." The Com
missioner extended another general in
vitation for Wednesday afternoon next,
and everybody came away voting him
a most delightful and genial host.
Mr.. Kenny deserves the warmest
thanks of the club members for his
liberality in furnishing them with Sc
good a practice ground, the more that
they are now threatened with the loss
of the further use of the old baseball
grounds. This sport is dear to the
heart of the Anglo-Saxon in general
and to that of the Britisher in parti-
cular, and while such friends remain
it will not be allowed to die out.
