Wilson, the stur pitcher of tx Pheuoinpiml 'Smith's l'otUville agre gji tion of bse ball urttsts, was not on Komi terms with himself yesterday lie v;i3 Bi.ur of visage and ucted as if "that tired feellnir" had obtained a strong hold on him. It is not surprising therefore that tbo Potrsville boys lost the gfiuie and al lowed Scrauton to pass theiu in tbo LoiiRue rsce. To begin with, Sir. Wilson was wild, r.o less than 8vbii members of the local team walking to tirst base be cause the Pottsville stur imagined tbo homo plate was several tins larger thin th le.icne regulations require. Trne Mr. Wilson has speed, lots of it, but it is unnccompauied by that niuplittvioof curve that the successful pitcher finds of such grout service to luui 1st mystifying ttie batsman. Patchxn foimd these straiu-ht, swift balls just to bis liking and in the tilth landed on one or them for three bases, In the seventh he uzuin became enam ored of one of these swift bulls and ho sreetad it siiaarely with his bat. The hull started on its outward passaze, flew over the center field fence, landing many feet on the other side. It was the first time a ball had ever been knocked over that fence and the cheers tnat greeted,, Patchen as be trotted ircroestbe nome plate were deafening, By that bit of stick work Patchen won a s'.Ik hat. MOKE TUOflil.E IS THE NINTH. In tlje ninth inning Mr. Wilson suf fered the greatest humiliation. I'our singles were made off him in succssdou which with a loii;' fly by Masey allowed three runs to be added to the Scranton seore makiHjr a total of nine. Wrstlake played a brilliant game, making tiro stjps that were phenomenal. llodson again proved that h is tlio kinz of Statu lieasne pitchers, in Mo firntinuine lie struck out Golden, the first tiHtsman, and Potts reached first ou W estluke s error. Potts attempted to steal second and Patchen threw the ball into cea tor field over Plielan's hea l. Potts thought it was a wild throw and started for third, Ilofjiin had backed Pbelaii up and when the ball ploughed through the atmosphere about tlie lat ter's head, Hotfati seized it. shot it to Westlakeat third, where delictto Mr. Potts was put out, Tijflie woutout on a fly to lioiiau. In the fourth the visitors made their fir.it run. Potts was given u base on talis nnu Iljihe Med cut to tlogan, wLiU) i'otts was cut oil at second a mo incut later. Fuller made a two-base hit, EMia was Kiven a bare on balls and on Hill's single Fullr scorsd. The visitors rallied again in the sev enth, Digglns odened with a siniglo and rescind secoii'l because Wetzel failed to hold too ball thrown by Patchen. Humphreys went out from Westiake to Alassoy, Uigglns scoring on Welz.Ts fuilnre to properly jude llson s hie. Uolden Uit-d ou a lly t We6tluke and Potts was given first ou bails.

Diddlebock of th State league, say la tho Philadelphia Iuiiuirer: "(iossip about tho State league couiiuuos to till the baise ball columns and it is not always true. According to some writers the Stuto league has been ou its last legs for a month or more, but it is still intact, and there is notliiii? to lndicato that there will be a break iu the circuit. The poor patronage afforded the ilarrisburg club at home has neen a source or worrunent to President -Meyers, but he has never had any intention or throwinr up his rran- chteo. The story that he was to tako his club to Atlautic City was a little prema ture; as while he had received an offer to locate at the seaside resort he hud never accepted it. The second championship seaon or tho btato league will Uegiu on next Saturday, and it is probable that be ginning with that date a number of the liariisburg games will be transferred to Lancaster, Slitunokiu, Sheuaudoah and possibly Willhimsport, but there will be no change of name or management." CITY LEAGUE SEASON. St. Thomas Collsg Club Won thi Chamclomhip. The last scheduled game of the City leagn was to be played on Saturday at 3,:!0 p. in. by the St. Thomas and High School teams, but tho High School team failed to uppoar on the grounds and the game wan awarded to St. Thomas by a scoro of u to 0 by the umpire. The City league tohednle was so nt- ranted that each of the four clubs was to i Uy ten games, and the olub having tho highest average would bo declared the winner. The schedule was iir- ranged by Professor Whitinore, mi'.n- ager of Wood s Lase Lull team, assisted bv the managers of High school, No. ui and St. I homo cluoa, The following is the Standinj of the diliorent teams, stating the number of games won, lost, postponed, and the percentage of each: Won Lost Po?t. Per St. Thoma9 X 3 0 .win W ooda 4 3 3 No. lid 2 4 4 Ml High School 1 0 3 .143 NOTKSOF TUB I'f.AYKUS AND TKAM.t. The Holding of the No. 20' was of the gilt-edged order. In Loivis, of Wood's, is tbo making of a nrsl-ciiuis ottii player. With a good pitchor tho St. Thomas' chib would become n very strong team. Tbo team from No. 30 school was tho smallest club iu tha league aud are des erving of much credit for tiro work they did. Kolly, pitcher, of Hie High Kehool, is a good player and would undoubtedly have won the games be pitched, if ho was properly suuported. The St. Thomas club dUbanded on Sat urday. Ou account of the school being dismissed, the inoiuDers living m dilteront towns were not able to coutiiiuo tho team organization. The pitchers of tho City league were Smith and Jason from No. 311; Kelly and Emerson, of the High School; Schives and Owciip, or Woods; tubbous, Miuer aud CnsHjk, or nt. ihoinaB. The St. Thomas' under tho luanagnmsnt of Patrick J. Boland, played twelve gamo. ten in the city league and two nou-loague games, one with the illy pliant Browns ana one wltn the Jiurray liuiii, or Fitts twn. They were victorious in tho games with tho Browns and Murray Hills, de feating tho for m or by a score of 15 to 0 aiM the latter by a scoro ot 10 to 3. BICYCLE OF FUTURE FCR WOMEN. Eex Will Not B) Considered in Its man ufacture. Two of the leading firms of bicycle manufacturers in this country have re cently expressed the opinion that with in five years there will be no difference betwesu the wheeU nied by men and women. In other words, they believe the day is not far off when all women devoted to wheeling will discard skirts on tha road aud wear what it now usually referred to as the "rational'' or "reform" dress. In other words tho sox of the rider will cut no figure in the manufacture ot bicycles, aud wo men will no louger have to put up with wheels whose modal, specially designed for skirt wearers, is necessarily inferior to those made for men in strength, lightness and sase ot propulsion, The courier of this new era in bicy cling seems to have arrived. A wheel is just tec inning to appear iu the streets of this city and Brooklyn that is intended for women, though it has the diamond frame heretofore seen only in the safetios made for men. In no respect does It difTcr from the finest, high grade, and blgh-prlced roadsters used by the sterner sex except that the diameter of both wheels is from two to four inches unaller than that of the men's machines, mid the frame is m cordingly much nearer the ground. The wheel is mounted hy the stop or pedal mount in voguo among men ri ders and is, of course, intended only for those ;women who wear tho "ra tional'' dross. Tho new wheel weighs only twenty- eight pounds, which is two to fivo pounds less than most of the high grado men's roadsters of ex.ictly the suite strength of frame. This is the crowniug advantage and it is secured by doing nway with tho smrt guard, which ore the unsightly and not wholly protective feature of women's bicycles, and by saving the extr weiuht required for the inisciuiiifiu und clumsy lrumes devise. I for rhfors wearing Bklrts. It is mi interesting and an important ques tion bow to surmount the dillicultiei nn 1 make all men and women free and tqual bicyclers. o believe the solution of the prob lem will be found in a soiisiblo bicycle costnmo for women. The young women who aro porfectly cvrtnin that they would nt'ier die than wear one of tho modest and tasteful bicycle suits which are now seon by scoroa are likely, before thoy lira married, to see them bo commonly in use that they will not call for apodal remark. A while ngo the bicycle costume was a. topic in the month of every resident of Paris. Today the hoodlums of that capital are so nngallant as to hoot nt the exceptional women who still insist on wheeling through the parks in ordinary streot attire. We predict that tho new bicycle, or something like it, will seon be a recognized fea turo in the wheeling world. JNew York Kuu. GENERAL SPORTING NOTES. Tho regntta committee of the People's Fourth or July regatta, which will bo hold on the Schuvlkill on that day, are quite jubilant over tLo number of entries that have been received. A largo number or men from Nov York aud other eastern cities will compete August 19 is the date settled for tho run ning of the annual lUU yard dash tor the prolcssiomd championship at Denver. Tho purse will bo f 1,000, aud among tho entries are Thomas C. Morris, of California, the present champion; "Steve" Fnrrell, of Connecticut; ''Jim" Collins, of Wisconsin; E. Donovan, of Massachusetts; W. 11. Cop pie, of Nebraska; J. Englemau, of Pitts burg, and J. Ciibsou, of England. lieorge It. Gray, the champion shot putter, who has eutored for tho all around championships of the American Athletic union to be held on tha grounds of tho New Jersey Athletic club, is not a novice in that sort of work. In 18s8 he went to England and competod in the in ternational all-around championships, "tvinning second place with twenty-seven paints. His record in the contests was as follows: Throwing 50-pound weight, 20 feet 7 inches; 100-yard ruD, got second to Bulger by three yards; throwing 10-pouad hammer, Hi feet 3 inches; lil-pouud shot, 43 feet 7f inches; standing long jump, 11 feet 10 inches: 440 yards, got second to Bulger by five yards; pushing 23-pound shot from shoulder, 30 feet 7 iucbes; standing hop, step aud jump, 23 feet 8 inches. In ISS'J Gray competed in the all- around ngainst Jordon and Ford, but railed to quniuy. un a percentage basis Oray feols that ho will have a good chance of winning. THE OUTLOOK NOT HOPELESS. A'tii; York 1 nbnnc. No intelligent man will deny that the municipality is the wens: spot m our mod ern civilization. But this is so for special reasons that will not always exist. On tho one band the rich industrial aud comuier cial that the city odors to the energetic man of business huve for the time being mado him seilshly negligent of his civic duties; and other, the movement of population has thrown into near ly every ltrgo city of the New World a mass of ignorance and latent vice that It may take several gener at ions to pureo aud assimilate. No intel ligeut New Yorker ut the present moment bus any disposition to make light of the municipal corruption that bus been ex posed to public view. But, If ho is wise us wpII us intelligent, he will understand thut this corruption is merely incidental, and no part or the permanent life and duvel opement of the city, which will throw it off, uud that perhaps at no very distant uay.
