In the afternoon, members of the Boston nine assembled at the gymnasium of the Young Men’s Christian Association, of which they are all members, and Schaffer and White practiced defending a wicket against Harry Wright’s bowling, a soft rubber ball being used. O’Rourke and Leonard have developed excellent bowling powers since practicing at the gymnasium, and Spalding is rapidly becoming a good cricketer. They are all splendid fielders ,and will soon be able to defend their stumps well.
