ANOTHER VERY EASY VICTORY.
Lancaster Was No Impediment What
ever to Scranton.
Scranton woo its thirteenth consecu
tive game yesterday. After the third
inning it lost interest, as Scranton had
piled up eleven runs, and the Laucas-t'-rs
bad not got a man past second
base. Hodson was touched up for nine
bits, but he kept them well scattered,
and the five runs scored by Lancaster,
with tbo exception of Stouch's homo
run in the third inning, were procured
mainly through errors.
The game is wop and that is some
thing to be thankful for.
The scorinx began in the second In
ning. Rogers went out from Toman to
Lirkino. Westlnke bit oter second
base, Hodson drove the ball in the
same place and Weatlake went to third,
scoring on Wetzel's bit to short cen
ter. Ilogan knocked out hot grounder
to Kupple at third, who tried to catch
Hodson, who bad started home. Hod
son ran half way, but got back Safely
to thiid. Patchen came to the bat and
smashed the bull against the right
field fence for a two-base bit, Hodson
and Wetzel sooring, Massey and
Piielan, the next two batsmen, were
put out on short flys. Lancaster's half
of the second was a blank.
In the third inning our players
pounded Meyers out of the box, scor
ing eight runs. The batting was ter
rific and the errors on the Lancaster
side were blue and plenty. Their
pitcher was bit so hard that it seemed
to demoralize them. Stouoh's borne
rnn in the third inning was the first
run scored by Lancaster.
Callihan was put in the box by Lan
caster in the beginning of the fourth
inning, and during ttie remainder of
the gumo Seranton scored but one run,
and that in tbe eighth inning, Patehen
Lit the ball for two bases, Massey went
out on a fly to left, and Pbelan drove a
hot liner to the pitcher who threw
wild to third to bead oil Patchen, who
bad started to steal the base, allowing
bim to score. Pbelan went to second
and was caugbt at the home plate on
Staltz's two base bit to center. Rogers
bit to tbe short stop and reached first
on an error. The side was retired on
Westlake's out on a short fly to Second
Buseman Stoucb.
In the sixth inning Lancaster scored
two runs. Youcgman hit safely,
Donoghue bit to left and Staltz fell in
running after the ball. Larkln hit to
Wetzal and was thrown out at first.
Kapple got to first on Wetzel's error,
allowing Youngman to score. Toman
was put out on a long fly to Ilogan and
Douoghue scored. Stouch sent a hot
ball toward Hodson, which struck the
latter's feet and bounded between Mas
sey and Pbelan. Larkln retired the
side by striking out
In the ninth inning Lanoaster scored
two runs on Wetzel's error, abase on
balls and Donoghne's two bass bit. Tbe
score is as follows:

PLAY BALL.
Oh. never mind how bad it looks,
Play ball.
It's written down in all the, books.
Play ball.
Don't quit because the prospect's poor,
For then you'll be the losers sure,
Aiid you will find your barkers fewer;
Play ball.
No one expocts it every day;
Play ball.
You'll lose sometimes bovre'er you piny;
Plav hull.
But when the game begins to slip
Why then just buttou up your lip,
No matter if those red suits rip;
Play ball.
We're sticking to you like a son;
Play ball.
We're giving up our time nnd "'nun'';
Play ball.
Now try your level bfst to do,
Just pull together like a crew,
We'll yell like fluids whenever you
l'lay ball.
The North End Stars defeated Parson
wavies' club by the score of 120.
Aschenb ick has been released by Lan
caster and has returned to bis home In
Ohio.
Hngan Is recovering bis old time batting
form. He made the longest foul hit yes
terday seen on the home grounds this year.
Stouch's home run over the center field
fence in yesterday's game was the first bit
of that kind made by a visiting player at
Hogao park this season.
Tenney, the new Boston catcher, is a
graduate of Brown university, where he
played lmyt spring. He is a natural ball
player anli oue of the cleverest backstops
in the business.
Mackle, the Indian pitcher, who has boen
in tbe Wills Eye hospital since the begin
ning of tbe State league season, at the
Harrisburg club's expeDso, is prepared to
report for duty this week.
A middle aged man sat in a conspicuous
place on the bleachers yesterday and sent
up such a volley of war whoops during
the game -that would put to shame the
choice shrieks of a Sioux Indiau.
Pitcher Callihan, who went in the box
yesterday after the third inuing, has a
method of delivering the ball thai would
reuiiud the spectators of a monkey ou a
stick, and he has a grin that expands
across his face from ear to ear.
Chief of Umpires Harry Wright, of the
National league, takes no stuck in the
theory that there is too much batting, aud
is not in sympathy with tbe minority of
reactionary magnates who favor going
backwards simply because their teams are
temporarily suffering from a lack of ef
fective pitching talent.
WHIRLS OF THE WHEEL
At the last meeting of the executive
committee of tbe League of American
Wheelmen, the treasurer's report showed
a surplus on hand of about ji 0,000. Tbe
mombM'Rbip of the loague now numbers
about 23.0U0.
The talk of Johnson turning professional
because of his recent experience with the
Syracuse Cycle club is not generally cred
ited by those who know him. Trainer
Eck said Johnson would rather be a class
B man than the king of the professionals.
The September tour of the Massachu
setts Bicycle club will be of unusual attrac
tion. The route will take in Montreal,
Lacbine, Quebec, Rivere du Loup, Ed
inundston, Grand Falls, Woodstock,
Frederictoti, St. John, St. Andrews, Si.
Stephous, Ellsworth, Bangor and Augusta.
Buffalo is to have a new track exclu
sively for eyeliner. It will be built and
owned by the Pross Cycle cluo aud will be
ready by the opening of next season. It is
understood that the path will be con
structed on the mott approved lines and
wnen nuisnea win oe as gooa as any in use
on the continent or in Eugland.

Flushed with the success of previous
prognostications, "Centaur" selects the
following horses to fiuish one, two aud
three:
TIP3 ON TUB WINNERS.
First race
1. Tea Girl.
2. Kiiiinio Doono.
8. Nellie.
Second race
1. Keeley.
2. Dnisy.
8. Duke.
Third race
1. Farmer Boy or Trillyway.
2. Johnny.
3. John or Jack.
Fourth race
1. Fanny Blair.
2. Frank H.
8. William.
Tbe picking; of Tea Girl Is based
upon the information that ber owner
bat outgrown tbe timidity which usu
ally accompanies a driver's maiden ef
forts. If Mr. Shelly bat the nerve to
keep his mare where the ought to be,
bis laurels are at good as won.
Keeley's selection is based upon the
understanding that Levi Patterson it
to drive bim. Dilsy threw dust over
him the previous Saturday, but if Kee
ley had won the first heat the final beat
would have been his, as Daisy was
pumped out when the went under tbe
wire thelRst beat,
Tbe third event is tbe most uncertain
on the oard, and Net who hat not receiv
ed much consideration, may upset the
talent. The prediction that Trillyway
will win, is withdjawn if ber owner
drives ber. "Centaur" considers Fanny
Blair's chances ln tbe last event under
the tame conditions, at those of ber
atable companion in the first race.
