Text	The Philadelphias have settled down to earnest work, and there is every prospect that at last we will have a first-class club. Charley Fulmer is the moving spirit, and he is determined to make the club a success—financially, and from a playing point. Although the current week was intended for preliminary practice, Fulmer tried to arrange a match with the Athletics, but was unable to do so. Surely the Athletics are not afraid? We were under the impression that they had bragged about being the first to revive the Base Ball interest in Philadelphia? Stick to that sentiment, gentlemen, for it is a good one, and don't back down when asked to play. We suggest that you play the Philadelphias at Twenty-fourth and the Ridge, on Friday, and on Saturday at Oakdale. Witll you do it? … The ground, Twenty-fourth and Ridge ave., has been secured for four days in the week. Negotiations are pending with the Union, of Brooklyn, Nationals, of Washington, Boston, Providence, Chicago, and other League clubs.
