Albright is not playing hlsgame latoiy and seems io be knocking against tough luck. uoooy (juamoers is marked with a home run the first Lehlghton has mado this season. Jennings lias had an offer to play with the Pittsburg Player's League club. The company Isn't a bit too fast for him. Bob Chambers scored a home run in Saturday's game, and generally played great ball. He has do equal on first. Lehlghton has. a phenomenal recerd. Look at it: thirteen games won, two tied and one lost to tho York professionals. Don't miss Saturday's game. Blood is written on tho luminary. It will bo the hottest contested of the season, for the visitors oome strongly rc-Inforced In every point.

Carmel base ball club, before laying claim to the championship of the Lehigh Valley. Bring on your mighty hosts, old man, Lehlghton will give 'em a shake. In complimentary allusion to the Le hlghton club tho Philadelphia Press says: Jennings stood well In tho Interstate League Ib a trial given him. O'llara, the pitcher, is cool and tireless. Chambers first base, Simmons second, Albright third and Rothermal short stop make up a stone wall Infield, while Yenscr, left field; Nus baum, center field and Richard, right field, attend well to tho flies. Mantz is a good tenth man. For Sale. A 48 Inch Expert Columbia Bicycle, Lan tern, Luggage Carried.
