GEH1RAL SrOETJXG SEWS OF TOE DAT
Long John Healy and the Baltimores made
their first appearance at Exposition Park
yesterday after-
m noon, and our local
tremelyglad to see
them. John has
had many a tough
argument here on
the baseball field,
but yeiterday was
one of the times in
which he was very
badly left The
management of the
Orioles has had
John resting on the
shelf for quite, a
while so as to let
loose here and turn
the adverse tide
that has been flow-
ing so strongly
against that team principally owned by 3Ir.
Von der llorst, of Baltimore. The tall and
stately Egyptian was not equal to the occa
sion, however, and he came in for a real
sound drubbing. And when things looked
their worst for John and his companions in
distress the calliope on the new steam
jacket passed down the river near the ball
prounds, sounding out in snggestiTe tones
the air of "Home Sweet Home."
All Much Affected.
This may have been irony or it may have
been a means of consolation, but it had a
great cflect on the Baltimore team from
Manager "Walz down to Buffinton, who was
at the gate.
There were nearly 2,000 people on the
grounds, and they saw a very one-sided
game. The visitors can undoubtedly plar
much better than they did yesterday, and if
they cannot home is certainly the best
place for them. Their general work didn't
rise to the dignity of good amateur base
ball. That may have been caused by the
ciratic pitching of Hcaly, but whatever
was the cause "it is certain that the team
u ill play much better than they did yestcr
dav. Shoch, the shortstop, was a bright exam
ple of how not to do it. Anything that
went this way was all right for the home
players aQd doubtless the young man felt
very, a ery sad. He piled up lour errors in
quite an artistic manner and Welch added
two more. And then again when John
Hcaly was getting the ball over the plate
the local slnggers were every non and again
knocking the ball out of sigiit, Bierbauer
wa out with not only his Sunday clothes
and batting clothes on, but he ninst have
had general suits on hand, for out of five
times at bat he knocked out four hits in
cluding a splendid and clean home run.
Nearly JIado a Becord.
His fifth try at bat almost yielded
another great hit And Counie Mack, too,
was on deck with the stick. He made a
ne three-bagger and was cheered so much
that he subsequently sent the ball to the
i5-cent seats lor another home run. This
h as all very pleasing, but it really left the
2Jaltimores so lar behind that there was
comparatively little enthusiasm over the
tall lugcing.
And OldSport Galyin pitched another
good game, alth ugh he surprised his oldest
acquaintances by giving three bases on balls
in succession and forcing in a run. This
was indeed, something remarkable for
Jcems. The fielding behind l.im was once
snore Tnilliaut, and the only error credited
to the team was a highly excusable one
made bv Bierbauer in trying to effect a
double plaj. He made a bad "throw and a
run scored on account of the throw. Alto
gether the home team put up a splendid
game.
In the first inning Jlillcr started off by
knocking a grounder to Schoch.
hoch's Numerous Error.
The latter threw the ball over first base
and Jlillcr reached second. Bierbauer made
a little single to left and Miller reached
third. Bierbauer got io second on a passed
ball, and then Smith got his bae on balls,
lling the bases and nobody out Farrell
Inocked up a littie fly, which "Whistler
caught, and Bccklcy sent a grounder to
fcchoch, who fumbled the ball, Miller scor
ing and Beckley reaching first all right,
fjiill three nienon bases and then a wild
pitch scored Bierbauer. Shugart got his
base on balls, and Corkhill's tingle scored
b.nith and Beckley.
In the next inning Galvin struck out and
Miller got his base on balls. B'erbauer
made another single, and still once again
-fcx-hoch made a tumble on Smith's grounder
and Klnier reached first, Miller scoring.
1'arrell's sacrifice hit scored Bierbauer.
In the second half of the inning, Whist
ler made a single and reached second on a
assed ball. I'icketi sent a fly to Miller,
which was caught, and Gilbert struck out
Then Jeems to ary his history ns a pitcher
gave three baes on balls in succession and
lorced in a run. This was followed by a
hit by Van Haltrcn, which scored another
run. Healy was nabbed at third.
31-iclt's Dig Illttlns.
In the third inning after Shngart had
struck out, Coikhill made a single and got
to second on a fumble by "Welch. Then it
was that Mack swipd out a three-bagger to
left, scoring CorkliiU
In the fifth inning Tan Haltren made a
single, and so did Schoch. Wood sent a
grounder to Shugart who threw Schoch out
at second, and Bierbauer in trying to make
a double plar threw too low " to Beckley,
and Van Haltren scored on the error.
Bierbauer started the sixth inning and
rot a tremendous thump at the ball, knock
ing it clean to the left center fence. In the
ninth inning Smith started with a single
and reached second on FarrelFs sacrifice
Bcckley's fly was caught hT "Welch, and
Shugart made a lively single to right.
Corkhill got his base em balU, although he
wa-; struck out, Umpire Gaflncy evidently
being mistaken. Mack kept up the fun by
ending the ball to the center field seats,
id all this netted four runs, three of them
ing earned. The score;

NEWST NOTES FROM NEAEBT TOWNS
RFECTAI. TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.!
Hollidaysbubo, April 29, John Daly,
the aged citizen of this place who was
brutally tortured by burglars on the night
of April 9, died last night from illness
brought on by the injuries and fright re
ceived then. Being 61 years old and some
what feeble, he could not bear up under the
nervous shock and slowly sank to death.
The details of the crime surpassed for
brutality anything that ever occurred in
this place before. Mr. Daly was a veteran
of the late war and received a pension. It
was evidently supposed that he had drawn
his pension money and had it in the house.
It was late Saturday night when three
masked men entered the house nnd de
manded what money was there. The old
man said he had none. This did not satisfy
the robbers, and they insisted on his con
fessing where the money was kept.
failing in this they resorted to torture.
One of the three began stabbing the aged
victim with a knife. Bleeding from
many wonnds, the old man still protested
he had no money. This onlv brought worse
punishment. Another of the men took up
a lighted lamp, and while the others held
the old man, slowly applied the flame to one
of his ears, burning it almost off. failing
still to secure any information they knocked
the old man senseless and began ransacking
the house. For half an hour or more they
searched, chopping holes in the floor and
tearing of the plaster. Finally they gave
it up and left
Then they went to the home of Miss
Olivia McDowell, an aged maiden lady, and
dragging her from bed, tortured her almost
to death, demanding money, which she
denied having. Knives were run into her
ears and face, while a blow from a revolver
closed one ere. Finally the fiends tied
her to a bedpost and deliberately set to work
to destroy all the furniture in the house, a
task in which they well succeeded. They
then departed with 6, all the money they
found.
Both the victims were able to release
themselves after a time and made their way
to the houses of neighbors, whefe they were
taken in and cared for. Mr. Daly was suf
fering not only from his wounds but from
the effects of the Iright He sank rapidly
until last night, when his death changed the
crime from assault to murder. The guilty
parties have never been located.

He Recommends Some Important Changes
In the Inatxranco Lairs,
IlAitnisucco, April 29. In his annual re
port Insurance Commissioner Ltipor gives
the following summary: Premiums received
by stock companies, (9,127,307 82: piemlums

Mr. Luper says that tho Leglslntnro has
failed to establish any standard by which
the solvency or insolvoncy of n purely mu
tual company may ho measured, and he rec
ommends legislation on this important mat
ter. He also recommends n law that n ill
soveroly punish repiesentatlves of defunct
orilbtltious companies who transact husi
ncsiheie. lie also says that there is no
good reason why mutual companies should
not be subject to the same supervision and
control as any other class of companies.

MANIA FOB SEATING .CHILDBEN.
A Braddock Father Hauled Dp for Shockloc
Cruelty to Bis Oflsprlng.
Braddock, April 29. Special. A distress
ing case orcruelty was brought toltght here'
to-day in the prosecution of Corbin Francis
.for maltreatment of his two little boys,
Floyd and Roy, aged 3 and 6 years lespect
ively. Francis is stable master ror Carnegie
Bros. & Co. About a year ago his wife died,"
and it is claimed that ho has had a sort of a
mania for whipping tho two little children.
He rents a good house and provldod well for
them since her death. Sometimes he would
employ a housekeeper, and other times he
would do his own work. At times when no
one was. at the house he would take the
children to the stable with him and keep
them for the day while he went about his
work. Complaints became so bitter that
Humane Agent Welcher had Francis ar
rested, and he w as arraigned before 'Squire
Holtsman for a hearing this evening.
Evidence was produced that showed that
he. chastisod his housekeeper for giving
them too much breakfast, and that he was
guilty of awaking one of the children at 3
o'clock in the morning nnd applying the
lash for some trifle. He whipped them with
a rawhide and a strap, nn the end of which
was a buckle, and which left scars that will
take months to heal. The youngest child
did not walk as soon as he thought was
right, and it was proved that he whipped
the little one to make it walk. The boy was
born a cripple and possibly will never walk.
After Hearing all or tho evidence the magis
trate fined Francis $?5 and costs or 60 days in
the workhouse, and the children were com
mitted to the eare or the Western Pennsyl
vania Hnmane Society.

sensible mind that catarrh is liable to de-

that Drs. Copeland, Hall and Byers thoi
