For some time past F. R. Diffendorfer, late manager of the Ironsides Base Ball Club, has been active in the organizatin of a new club and matters have now taken the definite shape of a stock company, with a capital stock of $2,000. The new organization will be known as the Lancaster Base Ball Club, and will have as its players the best material that can be procured. Among the players will be the reserve club of the Athletics of Philadelphia.

Messrs. Mason, Simmons and Sharsig, of the latter club, are stockholders in the Lancaster concern. They reserve the right to take at any time what players they choose from the local club, but will supply their places so that a good nine will always be in Lancaster. It is the intention of the local club to get into an alliance with the Athletics and two good games with the League clubs are promised each week.
