ed at Union Street Grounds

At present there is much speculation
ana talk i'm baseball circles about the
amateur championship of the city.
Since the disbanding OF the Delaware
t-am last week there has been a great
deal Of contention as TO which OF the
rival teams can rightfully claim the
title. TO settle this question the man-
ayers and captains OF three rival mines
have held a meeting and arranged for
contest on Labor Day at Front and
Union streets. The Pioneer boys who
have about the strongest aggregation
IN the city. win play the ST. Aioysius
nine Of the West End. The game Will
be played at Front and Union streets
grounds and win be called at 10 o'clock.
The victors in the morning game Will
play the Berg a. G.. in the afternoon at
8 o'clock on the same grounds.
These contests are exciting n great
deal Of interest aud enthusiasm, and
the rooters are waxing hot on both
sides. Michael Maloney has been
chosen umpire from the West End, and
it is supposed that Tom Flanagan, the
baseball pitcher. will represent the
East Side as the other umpire. The
teams are now practicing every even-
ing and lively contest for the
coveted championship is expected on
the coming Labor Day. There will be
n large crowd in attendance.
