with the BrownSon base ball team as

nesday night or Thursday morning,
and an effort will be made to get a
practice game with some ofthe school
teams for Friday afternoon. The
parade will start from the Lafayette
Hotel on Saturday afternoon for the
opening game with Manayunk.
Signing contracts seems tohave be-
come a favorite pastime with base
ball players. 1t now develops that
"Tom" News who has signed to play
first base has also affixed his sigma
ture to Wilmington A. A. con.
tract.
Manager Frysinger of the latter
team says that he gave News ad.
vance money several weeks ago and
has a receipt for it.
He says that News can play with
Wilmington until the Wilmington A.
A. season opens and if he does not
come over then, there will be count
case. Manager Roach of Wilmingto ton
is equally positive and says that News
will have to play with the Whining
ton Club and unless he does there are
such things as iniunctions in Della
ware, which will preventhim playing
elsewhere in this state.
Jack Bonner, whom Manager Roach
has signed for second base, also seems
to have liking for writing his name.
Several weeks ago he put his fist to q
contract presented by Manager Roach
and this week bulletin of the Ma
tional League gives notice that Pres
idcnt Young has confirmed the con.
tract the Newark Club has made with
Bonner. If such is the case, it looks
very much as if Manager Roach vii
