too:; two games from reading.
Scranton Outp'.ai-ocl Torryion' Men on
Saturday.
Manager Swift called his men to
gethi r before Saturday's games and in
language that at times bor'.or d ou tne
picinresqne told them tbut they hud to
play bull if they had any desire to con
tinue to fill Scranton uniforms.
His experience at the directors' meet
ing Friday cijrit was still fresh in his
mind, and he warn ;d his men that the
iirat indication of tired feeling ho ob
served would be his cub to give tho
possessor thereof ample opportunity to
sleep it off.
Jack Doran, who was slated to pitch
the first game, was told to use the
choicest corves in his repertoire and
thnt if his work showed any oarm irks
of "Old Pepper" there would be
trouble in store for him.
Then the game began.
"OnrPots" evidently profited by the
ml vice they received for there was a
si)i:p nnd vigor about their work that
was edifying.
WON AT THE START.
In tho first inning they touched up
Pitcher Rhodes for two runs nnd In the
s-cond thoy did that gentlcmm'
curves the honor of ponnding them for
five nnre runs. After that, the game
was never for a moment in doubt. Like
the election of the Republican stile
ticket nxt fall it was simply a question
of how much.
Afti r the second inning Mr. Rhodes
pulled bis attenuated form togthr,
thought oi his brief career with L juis
ville and determined that n man who
had faced tho sluggers of the National
league should not become dismayed
whvn confronted with a handful of
Btiit" league hirelings.
During the remainder of tho game
his work snowed a distinct improve
ment, but tho chnngo ciino too late.
Reading was doable to overcome the
lend and Scranton won by the follow
ing score:

THE BKCON1) VICTORY.
Long Tom Flanaghan went into the
box for Scranton in tbn second game
ond Mr. Jones, a south Daw twirl er.
did tbe same scrvico for Reading. Both
were batted veryfrelv.
In the second inning Reading hatted
ont three rnns and at once there were
demands from the grand stand to
have Flanaghan taken ont of the gamo.
They were not heeded, howevvr.
S "run con found Jones for six runs in
th' third, fonrth; and fifth intiing,
Whlnb gave tbe club a lead ot one rnn.
Neither side scored in the sixth or
peventh nnd in the eighth a wild throw
to first by Pitcher Jones allowed three
Bcrunton men to score. In tbo eighth
Reading succeeded in gteting two
yilute on mi error of
bits by Eostnce, Jones
Ia tbe ninth Hogan made a home
ma whicb oUctriiied tho audience.
Maesey, Vv'estlske and Illgglns were ou
tbe bases when FlauiiKhan went to the
plite to bat. Ho smoto thetinosphpro
Ticloasly thr?o timet tind then re
tired to "the bench, Hogan taking his
pllM at the plate.
HOOAN'S HOME RUN.
The bat squarely met the fonrth ball
Air. Jones pitched and it sailed away
into left field over Mr. Miller's head.
When tho ball was returned to the
diamond Hogan had cnnsorl tho DOtni
plate, with Maasey, Wsstlako nnd Big
gins nhoad of bltn,
That hit won the game. RaaJing
succeeded in making one run in the
ninth, which loft the score as follows:

GLINTS FHONI THE DIAMOND.
Scranton has urgent need of another
good pitcher.
Creorgo (lore has been doing somo heavy
batting for Biughnmton.
Jack Dorau kept the hits well scattered
in the first game on Saturday.
Clnlro and Humphreys have boon left nt
home by tho PottSTtlle management.
George Staitz and Hogan havo base
stculing down very close to a science.
Mark Baldwin will occupy the box for
King Kelly's nine against Harrisbiirg to
duy. Pottsville will play here to lav and to
morrow and Scranton should win both

Pitcber Jones' slow curves fooled the
Scranton batsmen in an amazing way lor
several innings on Saturday.
The Troy management U working wires
for Catcher Lacbnnco and also for Pitcher
Bentin, released by Cleveland.
Loamon continues to bo tlio king of stntn
lesgno coachois. In regard to coachcrs
Rending Is particularly strong.
Thjro is talk in tho Boston management
of laying Pitcher Jack Stivetts off without
pay until his work shows improvement.
Woodcock, formerly the well-known
left-handed pitcher for Brown noiversity,
hat boon secure ( to conch tho Williams
college bnsehull team.
Ston.ell, Pittsburg's center fielder, who,
it was predicted, would more than hit Van
liaitren's shoes, is DO '.ked. for releaso un
less be improves in bis play.
Patchon Is not a success in right field.
Manager Swifr. says that as soon as his
lame leg is in condition ho will cover thnt
portion of the garden himself.
On Decorntion day tho Young Men's
Christian association base ball team will

mid at Towauda in tho afternoon.
Flanugban was batted hard in the
second gamo Sniurduy. Hogan snvod the
game by bis home run drive in the ninth
inning when the ba:;os wore filled.
What Scranton needs moro than any
thing olso is captain who has the brains
and nerve t tnko command of tho team
and bo captain iu more than name.
In a balloting contest for tho most nomi-
1 lar State league player Thsyor Torreyson,
j of Reading, lends the list. And this is tho
y man that Scranton could havo signed.
Arthur Irwin has mad" np his mind to
retain .lack Boyle On first base, as the
latter has b -gnn to hit tho ball ou the
trade mark. This will lot collegian Cloecklo

In looking over tbe list of unemployed
ball players there are not many gems upon
the bargain counter. Brooklyn, Chicago,
Louisville tod Washington are circulating
search warrants for now blood, but the
demand appears to bo greater than tho
apply,
Al Johnson says that he has reinstated
Mike Kelly an manager of the Allentown
club. Ho declares that if tho "King" fails
to play nine innings in any game or tries
to pitch again he will be released. John
sou says ho has banked 88,800 foHCelly,
which is over and above expeuBos.
Manager Wltman, ofitua ling, hns been
a heavy loser by tho recent storm. Tho
gr. uniis havo been considerably damaged
and it will lake somoiimo to got them in
good condition. By the postponement of
three games on account of the rain,
together with tbo Injury to the ground.
Manager Wltman claims he bus sustained

Without Thayer Torreyson tho Reading
team would not oven bo a good eighth in
tho league race. Tho way lie works him
self nnd urges his ni"n on to fresh endeav
ors by weld ami example must make
those l-don't-cni's-HS-long-ns-l-draw-my-ealary-plnyori
feel very, very tired.
Thayer has a tondneee for dirty bull play
ing; however, that he might well re
nounce. "Phenomenal" Sinith, tbe manager, of
the Pottsville club, was brought Into
prominence as a huso ball plnyer in Alleii
towu. For several years bo pitched for
tho Allentown amateur nine and his
phenomenal record for strike-outs at
tracted the attention of the entire base
ball worid. He was then sold to tho Phil
adelphia -National league team, but in a
few yean his best days as a pitcher were
over.
Bain in an expensive thing for tho East
ern league team! on the road. Every game
postponed means a loss of at loast tlOil to
the team. Hotel bills, salaries and car
fare cannot bo postponed ty rain, how
ever. Bprlngfltld has fared bast so far,
mining two j;ainos at Wilkes Barro and
one at Buffalo, but playing an extra Sun
day gumo at Troy which was worth moro
than the lUabllOO, Providence lost $100
each In Blnabamton anil Krle, Syracuso
lost 800 at Blngbamton and $1 at Erip,
While Troy has suffered most, losing $400
In all, two at Wllkee-Barre and ono each
at Buffalo and Eric Springfield Union.

Writing in the Pitt-burg Times, Stephen
Bornett seyai "Local attendant! at tho

to be held in Wilkes-Barre, July 2 and 3,
havo in store for themselves a rnrs treat
and are probably not aware of tho many

pri sent at tho Scrauton meet of two years
ago remember with pleasure the delightful
three davs' outing, and no doubt will bo
quite ready to repeat the visit. For those
local WheelWOtnen nnd wheelmen who
have not visited this section of our stnto n
description should bo appreciated. Wilkes

streets offer excellent cycling facili

Eight miles further they hnvo tho beanti
fui city of Scranton, with her fine nvenuen,
linel with beautiful resiliences. In the
midat of the groat anthracite coal ru
bious an opportunity is hud to see nature
underground. A visit toCarboudalo and a
trip on the Gravity rullroud must bo taken
to get a full appreciation of tbe wonderful
mountain views. Then an hour spent in
tbe linrk adds zest to the Hying dash back
to tbn city of Carbondale, reached by no
other power than that of gravity, the train
being controlled by n brakeman on each
car. Fiuo club bouses, the freedom of tLo
city and generous hospitality Will insure to
everyone present nn enjoyable time. Al
together, a moro dellghtfal wny of spend

members of tho division, and u luro at
