PHILADELPHIA. 



The Cricket Match. 



A very interesting cricket match was 

 played at the Stoke Pogis farm, 

 Wednesday afternoon, August 9. be- 

 tween the employes of Stoke Pogis 

 nursery and the Philadelphia Florists' 

 Club, resulting in a well earned vic- 

 tory for the visitors. McFarlane and 

 Dodds were very destructive with the 

 ball. Gobel's underhand twisters se- 

 cured several wickets. Thatcher's 

 wicket keeping was simply grand, only 

 allowing 4 byes. Watson and Kift 

 brought off fine catches. For the home 

 team Gardner and Rands did best with 

 the ball; while Hushen, Rands and 

 Peacock came off well with batting 

 honors. After the match was over an 

 ample repast was served on the 

 ground, through the kindness of Mr. 

 and Mrs. John Gardner, everyone en- 

 joying themselves. The return match 

 is to be played in September, at Chest- 

 nut Hill. The score is as follows:
