on the Hermitage and Lakeside links.
The first game Is to be played Satur-
day, the goth, at the Hermitage A

who know pretty we'll the merits Of
The Individual players, It Will be either
clubs game until the last hole IL
played.
Play will begin any time after 1880
A. NJ, and the memb ers. therefore, can
arrange between themselves at what
hour 1t Is most convenient for them
to play. If some players are able to
play early In the day It will prevent
the possibility OF crowding, which Is
liable to happen when all start of ut
one time.
The captains Will be s. B. Moon, Tor
the Hermitage. and yF.J ]. D. Mackay,

THE LOCAL PITCHERS.
An-star STAFF is UnsurpasAedI Hobbs
and Vail Great Additions.

Hobbs is meeting the expectations OF
the fans and the owners, md ne bids
fair to be one Of the local stars and
a stellar light In tho league before the
season closes. His great lAngth Of arm,
combined with his very, evident bodily
strength, give him such speed as to
make even the best hitters quail some
what when they face him in the bdx.
Hobbs has also almost perfect control
without which speed would amount to
but little. 1t Is the speedy ball With
good control that counts, ana in this
lies Hobbs's great usefulness
With Hobbs Vail, The Yankee twirler
who made splendid showing in his
first effort; Mike Cassidy, Duke Carter
Long and salve, Richmond has a pitch
ing staff tnat Is unsurpassed by that
OF any team in The league. These
men will be with the team, until the
finish, and there Is little likelihood that
another will be added, unless one 81
