The insnlt offered to Scranton by

playing that mid defeat imno.if.ibIe.
Aud then FUntgnftQ was in bll best
form yesterday and the llarrisburg
lieavy bittern ioull do nothing with

with one of Thomas' choice curves and

Ihe ball would settle gracefully into
the hands of Mr. Hogan or Mr. Stnltz
and Mr. Higgins, or bis handsome col

the ball would skip und cavort ov r

were the batteries for Wood's team,
and Ousick and Lvnott mid Miller aud
Hart lor St. Tuotuis. Cunick whs I
touched up for nine safe bits in three
innings. Schives proved a puzzler to
the St. Thomas club, only ono safe hit
being made off him. and that while tho

GLINTS FROM THE DIAMOND.
Today BcrautontWill meet King Kelly's
men at Allentown.
Hnzlcton has signed Catcher Shap of the
disbanded Easton club.
Spanner Oarr, of last year's Scranton
club, has been released by Pottsville.
We are content. Our club has shown
that llnrri-burg is far from Ueiug invinc
ible. Baltimore has wnivod claim to Catcher
Herritt, formerly of Boston, and Pittsburg
is now after hint.
A peculiar feature of tho Eastern league
race is the fact that but two of the clubs
have averages over .530.
Umpire Corcoran has tho requisite
amount, of backbone noeoswv to deal
with enoh ball players us the Hnrriibnrg
team is composed of.
The order of tho Now England lenauo
standing to date is ns follows; Fall River,
HaverilL Lewiston, PawtncKet, Worcester,
Portland, Brockton and Bangor.
Those two triple plays by Troy and
Syracuse Monday were the first of the
Eastern leegne season, nod it is the lirst
time on record that two of them have, been
made Iu one game.
Several National league clubs aro cast
ing covetous eyes on Pitcher Meanoy, of
the llarrisburg club, who pitcher agalntt
Scrnuton M-.nday. He is a left-hander,
possesses lots of speed, and can cover
either an iu or an out field position credit
ably. Donovan, the Pittsburg enptniu, plnvs
right Held, but that does not deter him
from frequently walking in and protesting
against tho umpire's decision on balls
and strikes. Donovan must be supplied
with a piercing eye. Philadelphia In
quirer. Long Tom FlaUOagbaa had splendid con
trol of the ball yesterday. Up to the be
ginning of the ciuhtti Inning only one sin
gle had been secured by tho visitors. 1 11
the oiguth they obtained a double and sin
gle, Which allowed the ouly run they made
iu the game to be stored.
Kangaroo Armstrong, ttkt, exceedingly
tiresome young man, was on the couching
lines again yesterday. Captain Sales
would show good judgment by mauling
bim. There is a wide difference between
coaching and Mr. Armstrong's idiotic
prattling nnu. disgusting contortions.
In addition to having his plcturo and
his name In the papora Miko Kelly has his
name engraved aleo updu the earth, in
big letters on the lawn between the road
and the grand Maud ut Rittersvillo ap
pears the word Kelly. His cup of happi

Smink found fault with Umpire Cor
corau's decisions yesterday several times.
He was advised to make his complsrtnts to
himself inwardly, but refused to do so. In
tho ninth inning Corcoran lost patience
with Smink und imposed a firm of 5 wVn
Smink hail declared t bat a strike bad been

but seems to inspire his fellow players

about ball playing, the majority of its
victories were secured by luck. It was

Manager Smith, of Pottsville, was iii

phatic in denying the report that Potts
ville was shaky nod that Shenandoah was
after lis place in the State league, Pottt

bad weather and a losing team. Mnnag-r

itop Ellis, lato of the Beaton club, uuU
from now on Pottsville will havo n win

a splendid intlelder and a good hitter, and
is to bo played at third base.
The Reading Eteuiug World givos the
following account of bow King Kelly
worked a nice point in the game nt Read
ing: "It was in tho sixth inning, after
two men were out, that Kelly aud Wise
gave the audience a Hue exhibition of base
rnuuing. Sammy was hit by a pitched
ball und slid into third on the Kind's hit
to left field. Mr. K.-lly played off first
pretty far and Rhonds fell into tho trap he
laid for him. Instead of pitching the ball
he threw to first and the i?10,010 benuly
executed the Highland fling up and down
tlio lino betwui-u second and lirst. 4.11
tins while 'Cunning Sammy' was inching
up towards the home plate. Watching for
a good opportunity the King shouted 'now
go' and with the word Wise came down
the home tretbh like a race horse, lie got
there and Kelly got second, coming home
on Browning's hit."
