Syracuse Stars Give Tliem
Their First Defeat.
THE STRUGGLING PEDS.
Howartb. Moore, Herly and Kolan
Cause Great Excitement.
THE SPORTING KEWS OF THE DAT
The Colts, of the local National League
club, suffered their first defeat. The Syra
cuse stars beat them. The local pedestrian
contest created greatexcitement. The racing
was very fast. Corbett will bet Sulliran
$5,000 that he can stand four rounds before
him, Sullivan.
Sir Guy Hecker's colts, of the National
League, suffered defeat yesterday at the
hands of the aggregation of ball players
known as the Syracuse St rs. These lu
minaries have just become members of the
American Association, and doubtless their
ambition was high ycsteiday to lay the
youngsters of the old League low. Victory
perched on the banner of the visitors, and
they simply got what they deserved. They
won the game on its merits, and that does
not even say much for the quality of the
game. Xeither club played its best, that
1?. neither played in its best form. At some
stages the playing was very seedy indeed,
and the only redeeming features were some
occasional good fielding and a natting streak
by the Stars.
AN ENTHUSIASTIC CEOWD.
The weather was extremely fine and about
500 people were present. The crowd, not a bad
one for an exhibition game on Monday, was
Tery enthusiastic. The contest, generally
speaking, was not of a high class order, but It
was tor a long time close enough to be exciting.
Its early stages were marked by some bad play
ing ty the two shortstops, and Battin, old Joe,
contributed to the column of errors. Hemp
and Sunday, too, were a U'tle oil and made two
mistakes that ordinarily will not happen. The
weakest point of the home players, however,
was their battery. They could do nothing
with the stick, excepting, of course, little
DuckeyHemp. He scored his three raps and
they were good ones.
Sowders pitched the entire game for the
Colts, although it was intended to relieve him
bv Gray. The argument was too close, how
ever, and Sowders was in good form until the
fatal eighth inning. Up to that point the Stars
could do little with him, but there they nailed
him for four good hard thumps. Lyons pitched
the first five innings for the Stars and did fairly
welL He promises to be a good pitcher, but at
present seems to be a little unsteady; He gave
three bases on balls and hit one man with the
ball. Briggs caught him very well. Dan Casey;
of course all Pittsburg cranks known Dan. He
umpired a game here one day that will not
readdv be forgotten. He was under the care
of old Harry Wright then. Well, Dan
pitched the last four innings, and he
was a puzzler. Only to hits were
made off his delivery, and that was in the
eichth inning. He pitched in something like
his old-time form, when be used to be a tough
enigma to the big hitters of the old team.
WHEN THEY SCOKED.
The home players were first to score, and-anly
the very wretched fielding of the Stars per
mitted this. In the second inning, after Miller
had reached first on balls. La Roque reached
first on a muffed fly by McLaughlin. The mis
take was a glaring one, but amends were made
bypnttmg Miller out at second. Boutcliife
was then hit by a pitched ball. La Roque then
stole his way to third, and RoutcliSe got to
second. Youngman sent both men home by a
lively single to right field. In the second inning
Sunday obtained his base on balls, and reached
third on a single by Hemp. A
sacrifice hit by Hincs sent Sunday
home. In the fifth inning, after
Sunday was out. Hemp banged the ball over
Wngbt's head for two bases. Hines got his
base on balls. Hemp tried to pilfer third and
Briggs threw the ball to Battin who muffed the
throw and Hemp got home.
The visitors were presented with three runs
in the third inning. The youngsters made some
what of a poor show in this inning. After
Brings had been retired Lvons reached first on
a muffed fly by Hemp. Ljons reached second
on a sacrifice by Wright. Dorgan knocked a
grounder to La Roque who fumbled is. Ely
sent another grounder to La Roque, who
picked the ball up splendidly but threw it to
the fence of the bleachers. Casey and Dorgan
scored. McQnery knocked a fly to Sunday,
who muffed it, and then McLaughlin thumped
out a twu-bagger. All this sent in three runs.
In the eighth the people from Syracuse
jumped on to Mr. Sowders. McQuery com
menced with a double to left and McLaughlin
sacrificed him to third. Morrison made a single
to right, McQuery scoring. Battin's sacrifice
sent Morrison to second, and Briggs sent in the
winning run by a two-bagger to center field.
Casey made a scratch single and Wright
knocked a grounder to Roat. who threw the
ball over Paul Hmes' head, allowing both
Casey and Briggs to score. Zacharias did very
well as umpire. Following is the full score:

Excitement Nolan Surprises the
Talent The FavorltM Are AH
In Good Condition.
The great six-day pedestrian contest, in the
Central Rink, continued to be an exciting
affair yesterday. During the day more than
2.000 paid for admission, many ladies being
among the crowd. The enthusiasm was kept
up among the spectators, and particularly
in the evening when almost all the members of
the Players' League Ball Club appeared and
cheered lustily for Guerrero. He responded to
their cheers by showing bis great speed. He
happened an aocident in tho morning, however,
which somewhat injured him. When running
he slipped and fell peeling the skin from bis
arm and left leg. He also hurt his leg.
The race during the greater part of the day
was between Howarth. Moore. Hegelman.
Nolan and Herty. Howarth kept two miles in
front of Moore who was a mile and a half in
front of Nolan and the latter was a mile or so
ahead of Hegelman and HertyJ Ho
warth was the first to pass the "century"
mark and he did so amid rinsing cheers. He
is a splendid runner. Moore, Nolan and Heeel
man passed the mark named shortly after
Howarth. The latter persisted in making the
race desperate and he did not leave the track
until about 9 o'clock. Then Moore took first
place and closely followed by the Lawrenceville
champion, Nolan. The latter really surprised
everybody by showing such good form. He has
not had the best of attention but from to-day
on he will be looked after. So far he has made
a great race.
Moore undoubtedlv is in first class condition.
and so is Herty. When Howarth left the
track Herty and'Noremao showed some great
running. Herty is a very dangerous man, and
Moore is evidently aware or that fact because
he Keeps a close eye on Herty. Sam Day also
surprised his friends by his steady going. Pete
Golden shortly after 9 o'clock scored his 100
miles, and he was presented with a bouquet by
the First Ward Dernacrats. The historic ward
looks after Pete, and when his "century" was
reached the band struck up "St. Patrick's
Day in the Morning.
It is, indeed, impossible to form anything
like a correct idea as to who will be the first
three at this early stage. The race is one of
the most desperate ever seen. So far the pace
has been remarkable and it would sjem impos
sible for the cait to be kept up. No less than
16 of the 23 starters covered 100 miles within
21 hours, and each secured the J10 offered for
accomplishing that feat. Day and others in
addition each got a silk hat. Cartwright has
retired for good and Hart is in bad shape. Nor
emac, however, is going better than he gener
ally does at the first stage of a race. And "Old"
John Hughes is in the race, and he will let
snmebodv know that before the week is out.
Following are those who covered 100 miles In
time to secure S10 each: Guerrero, Noremac,
Moore, Golden, Connors, Howarth, Hegelman,
Day. Burns. Nolan. Crozier. Glick. Fox. Ho-
ran, Hughes.
At 2 o'cicck this morning the race was still
very close, though some of the men were feel
ing their sores. Golden and Noremac both
had very sore feet. Howarth, Moore and
Herty were going very well. Following was

Local Grand Armr Veterans Say It Is an
Insult to Every Old Soldier.
The Pension League, an organization com
posed of old soldiers, met in the hall of G. A. R.
Post 162, in Allegheny, last night to discuss tho
various pension bills before Congress. Mr. J.
H. Stevenson stated the object of the meeting,
and bills 3S9 and 8,297. bearing on the matter of

rison to be an insult to every old soldier, in
that it provides for a pension only to those

have no income of any kind, and whom the
world usually consider paupers.
Comrade Klein spoke earnestly for the pass
age of anv and all bills that would tend to in
crease the veteran soldier's income. Comrade
Shuck moved that a communication be sent to
the members of Congress from this district, re
questing them to use their influence in favor
of pending bills. A committee was ap
pointed to notify the Veteran Legion. Sons of

A Soil to Recover nn Aliened Fraudulent
Bonos Thousands Pnt Down in Dusters
The Conns Must Decide V.'lilch One of
Van linker's Victims Died First.
The low-hung clouds that have lowered
around the house of A P. Clever, of Robinson
township, for several months have burst at
last. J. M. Guffey, the extensive petroleum
and natural gas developer, has entered suit
against Clever and another man named Charles
Scarborough in Common Pleas Court No. 1 for
535.00a
The statement of the case is that on August
10, 1SS8. C. C. Cavener and S. S. Smith leased
fifty acres of land in Robinson township, on
which oil and gas were to bo soughtby the plain
tiff. The question of bonus was not settled,
and Mr. Guff ey agreed to pay as much as anyone
else would within a stated period. In the state
ment of the case it is claimed that Clever and
Scarborough procured one Peter Gettman to
make an offer of $20,000 bonus, a share of tho
oil found, and 31,000 for each paying gas well
struck. This offer, plaintiff alleges, was deceit
fully and fraudulently made to defraud him,
defendants knowing that Gettman could not
and would not pay the amount specified, fie
savs he has discovered this since he paid the
$20,000, and in addition to the 520,000, ho has
expended 515,000 in drilling holes in the farm,
and the lesults, it seems, have been quite
small.
There is mncb complaint by some farmers
that operators have "tied" them up to the
verge of ruin, but Mr. Clever certainly wasn't
in that class, as the tract leased by Mr. Guffey
is assessed at not to exceed one-fourth of the
bonus.

Mrs. McWha was one of the victims of Vaa
Baker who murdered his wife and her mother,
Mrs. McWha, and isnow serving a life sentence
for the crime. The amount due the estate by
parties in this county is about 5450.
The settlement of the estate, it is stated, will
likely give rise to a dispute in the West Vir
ginia courts. Mrs. McWha, by her will, loft
her whole estate to her daughter, the wife of
Van Baker. Both women were found dead in
the farm house where they were left dead by
their murJerer, and the question is, who died
first? If Mrs. McWha died first Mrs. Van
Baker would inherit under the will and the
estate would in turn go to her heirs at Jaw, in
cluding Van Baker, the murderer and her hus
band. If Mrs. Van Baker was the first to die
the will would be void and the estate go to the
heirs at law of Mrs. McWha, The murderer is
the only one who can solve the question and
the convicted man is an interested party,
though in prison for life.

A PKICELESS BOOK
The Skillful Work Performed by Drs.
Copeland and Blair
IN THE CASE QF MR, WEIRAUF.
"I cannot tell yon the exact cause of my
tronble, but it dates back over six years, and
during that time, I have scarcely known a
well day. I tried varions physicians, and
countless remedies, spending a great deal of
money, but could obtain no relief, until I
placed myself under the care of Drs. Cope
land and'Blair."
The speaker was Mr. C. C. Weinkauf, the
proprietor of a large provision market at 229
Frankstown avenue, a short distance from
the Pennsylvania Railroad depot at East
Liberty, nnd widely known throughout all
the East End district.
Mr. C C. Weinkauf ,2i9 Frankstown Avenue.
"As I said," continued Mr. Weinkauf, "I was
never well for six years. My head and nose
were constantly stopped up. My eyes were
weak and watery. There were roaring and
buzzing noises in my ears. I had a dull, heavy
pain in my forehead. I could feel the mucus
dropping back into my throat. My throat be
came raw and inflamed. I was constantly
hawking and raising. A dry, hacking cough
set in. Sharp pains would shoot through my
chest, extending as far as the shoulder blades.
My heart would palpitate rapidly. This would
be followed by a slow, irregular beating and a
feeling of dizziness. My nights became rest
less. My throat would nil up and my breath
ing was labored and difficult. I would arise in
the morning more tired than when I went to
bed. I had no appetite and had a nauseating
sensation in my stomach after eating. There
was a heavy feeling in my chest as of a weight
pressing down. I was reduced in weight, and
became weaker and weaker every dav, until I
was scarcely able to do my work. I was more
like a dead than a living person."
"How do you feel now?"
"As well as I ever did in my life, and owe it all
to the skillful treatment received from Dr.
Copeland, under whose personal care I have
been. Every symptom I mentioned has disap
peared. I am gaining in weight, eat and sleep
well, and can do a good day's work. It is sur
prising that so many persons will waste time
and money with other doctors and obtain no
relief, when they can be treated and cured by
this eminent specialist at a fee even lower than
the prices of patent medicines. I am glad to
make this statement and shall be pleased to
verify it at any time."
Mr. Weinkauf can be seen at the above ad
dress, and this statement easily veriQed.
HOME TREATMENT.
Jacob Altmeyer. of Risher, opposite McKees
port. Pa., states: "1 commenced treatment fur
my catarrhal tronble with Drs. Copeland &
Blair on June 29, 1889. I now feel like a differ
ent man, and shall be pleased to state my case
and recommend their treatment to anyone ad
dressed." Mr. William Barnes, of Hickman. Pa., was
afflicted with catarrh, and had lost all sense of
taste and smell. He was under the care of
Drs. Copeland it Blair, and now states: "I am
perfectly well, and owe my recovery to their
treatment."
Mr. Harry Phillips, of Hulton, Pa., has this
to say of his successful treatment for catarrh
with Drs. Copeland A Blair: "I was in very bad
shape, but now feel like a different being, and
as well as I ever did in my life."
