The rain of Friday night it was thought would prevent the practice game of ball yesterday on the Avenue Grounds. Consequently no advertisement or announcement of the game was made in the morning papers. But the pretty weather in the forenoon induced Captain Pike to place bulletins out at the Gazette office corner, Hawley's and Kramer's, announcing the game. This was done shortly before noon. In spite of all these circumstances, about three hundred persons assembled on the grounds before three o'clock, and more than thirty buggies, carriages and wagons were inside the grounds.

Sign boards have been placed on all the principal streets in the city for the special purpose of advertising the games.
