Locals Win from Harriiburjr by Hard
Hlttlog-.
Another victory was recorded in fa
vor of Scranton yesterday, Harrisbnrg
being tho victim. That makes the fif
teeuth consecutive league gams the lo
cals have won. They also won the ez
liiMtion contest following Saturday's
league game, which makes a string of
sixteen uninterrupted victories.
There was an abundance of bitting
all through the game.' Long Tom
Flanaghau's curves and shoots re
ceived the worst punishment that has
been administered to them for weeks,
Sprogel, who fondled the sphere for
HarrUliurn, fared much worso.
The locals punched the balls all over
the field until the rent and lacerated
ntmostpbere groaned in agony as the
horsibhle sphere lore great, gnpiug
boles in it. Mr. Sprogel was found
altogether for seventeen hits and only
the splendid work of the fielders kept
the total down to that figure.
Staltz curried off the batting honors
of the day, with two singles and two
tripUs. . Hognn bnd a single and a
triple, and Westlake a double and two
siuKle.
During the first five innings the
game was sharply coaUsted. Harris
bnrg was playing in its first season
form and there were not a few among
the spectators who expected to see
Coxey Sales and the members of his
club break the long string of victories
that have rewarded Bcrantou's earnest
work.
It may have been the wrong font
stockings they wear, the waim
weather or the hard hitting of the lo
cals, but whatever the cause, true it is
that after the fifth lnninjf the boys
from Harrisbnrg played decidedly
careless and sloppy ball, They lost as
they deserved. The score:

Just now when every other club in the

for pitchers New York has three of the
best and two good one in reserve. It is
right here that the New Yorks have a
graud chance to win the peuaut.
The Morning Glories ot Dunmore and

exciting game of ball at Sport hill Sunday.
The game was called at the eighth tuning,
the rain interfering. Score, Moruiug
Uloriea, 7; Hustlers, 7. Botb clubs will
play again in the near future.
ComUkey is not playing on his nine.
There is no doubt about "Commy's" decline
in bealth. He lacks running powers, and
a throe base hit and a sprint from first to
third almost exhausted him, so that it was
nectisary to invent excuses to cuin time in
which be could regain his "wind." The
great nrst baseinau will not play many
more games.
"Let them all hit it," was "Charley"
Farrell's advice to Meekin in the second
Baltimore game. It was the gulden advice
of a good bane ball general. A base on
balls gives uo cbance for a put out, aud is
demoralizing besides, but when the bats
man hits the bull one ot the nine fielders
muy have a chance at it. "Let them all
hit it" is a good motto fur any pitcher. F.

The Pottsville papers have taken excep

Putttvllle mou huve offered to the public
duriog the recent visits of that club to this
city dues uot deserve the terms dirty and
ruftlainly, tbeu we are at a loss to know
just l ow these terms are defined at PottB
ville. "Eddie" Buiks' s worshippers, who "look
down on Saramis" from the "roost" in left
held, are agitated by only two sentiments
auring tue progress ol a game at tbe Polo
ground. One is that of uubouuded admi
ration for the (iiant's left fielder, and the
other 1 that of extreme hatred for the
visiting rival. They pass tho afternoon
alternately chsoring "Eddie" and hotting
the unfortunate player, who as a strauger,
is compelled to field under the shadow of
their contempt. The words of loving en
couragement which drop from their Hps
upon 'Eddie's" head Cud antitheses in ear
enstie remarks wbicu are burled at the
foreign fielder. Every fly ball which a
Uiaut tends up to lert ueid reaches the op
posing fielder's hand iu a tremendous yeil
from the rooters in their tireless aud com
bined attempt to "ruttle" tbo enemy.
New York Herald.
Secretary Diddlebock of the State
league vents LU displeasure at the pro
posed abandonment of the State lea;uo by
l-cruutou, in a column article in the Phila
delphia Inquirer, directed principally
agaiUBt President Powers of tho Eastern
leaquo and the National agreemant. Tho
latter part of the article reads as follows:
"The latest causpiracy which has bwn
formed to disrupt the atato league came to
light on friday lunt. A number of th
Eastern league club have been shaky nil
the season, and the Truy club Uuully dis
banded last week. Iudeipair at thj break
ing up of bis circuit it finally occurred to
the gigantic understanding of "Pooh liah'
Powers that it would ba a master
stroke of policy to secure tbe Scran
ton club to take Troy's placo,
Putsy worked tbe wires, aud Air. Buort,
of the Wilkes-Barre club, visited Scrautuu
to work up siilhuslnstn for tbe E is'.orn
league. He succeeded so well that Mana
ger Swift aid Secretary Betts wore dis
patched to tbesp-ciul meeting of the East
ern league which was held iu N'w York
yesterday. On their way to New York
tbe Scranton representatives stopped in
this city aud unveiled tb scheme by which
tbe Eastern lraguo officials propose to r. b
the State league. According to Secretary
Betts there is nothing in the Natiouul
agreement which prohibits Scran ton
from diibandiug. It does not matter
that Scranton is Stats league ter
ritory under the prottction of the
National agreement, and that the purpose
of disbaudment is to transfer tbe club to
the Eastern league. That wrll be winked
at by the ofUciuli of tbo National lraguo.
At least that is Mr. Betts' iuforruaiiou,
aud iu care that is not permitted Secretary
Betts is Informed that there is nothing to
prevent Scranton from disbanding aud
then forming an independent club to play
with the Eastern league clubs. There are
more ways of beating the devil around
the tump than one, and 'Pooh Bah'
Powers has sevural other ways of beatlug
the National agreement. So says Secretary
Bittts. It remains to be seen whether the
ofllclals of the National league will per
mit this most flagrant violation
of the National agrtemont to go
through. The State league offi
cials have worked hard for two
years to popularize tbe game In
Pennsylvania, aud to establish u good olr
cul:, and if they are to be robbed of um
pires, players aud clubs upou mere tech
nicalities, the national agreement will not
be worth tho paper ic Is written upon." If
Mr. Diddlebock would review his own
couduct aud that of the State league to
wurds Scranton in the past they would
find the exact reason why Scranton was
williug to part company with tbe state or.
ganizatiou aud enter a new field. It is not
safe to impose on people too much even
though tbey have the reputation of bear
ing impositions without complaint.

BABIES IN RICH FAMILIES
Like Those In Modest Homes, Have
but a few Great Needs Lactated
Food Not Beyond the Reach of Any
They All Thrive Upon It.
E7sry one knows of splendid homsi
Hint lack nothing but children.
The rooms, with all tbir eleganoe,
look vacatit without, the clntter of Uhy
toys, and tbe smooth, sunny lawns
N'fin wusted without a troop of chil
dren playing on them.
But when the babies do come into
tbH homes, all that thought and lo.ve
ami wraith can do combine to keep
them hnaltby, happy and charming.
And yet tthf so little onrg. like the
cou.-itlefs childrea in homes where
LITTLE MOLLIS WAKD.
there is "little to earn and many to
keep," are nil human babies, and the
thius that ure really there health ann
hsppiuess are vry simple during the
first few years of their lives.
In fact.when parents have made in re
that baby's fo ul is sufficiently nourish
ing and healthy, but there is plenty
of pnre air and absolute cleanliness,
tbey can really do nothing else. Iu
homi-s where trAiued nurses are em
ployed lactated fool is alway kept on
hand. And at the first sign ot bowel
trouble baby is pnt on an exclusive diet
of laotated food till the intestinal dis
turbance is over.
Physicians know of nothing else
equal to laotated food to take the place
ot mother's milk. It is made foi the
express purpose of forming as perfect a
substitute for healthy mother's milk as
analysis .will show. It is pleasant to
the taste, and has tbe nnnsual virtue
of Inducing delieate babies to take
nourishment when other food disa
grees with their wsak stomaohs. Lao
tated food has saved thousands of bab
ies from falling vlotitns to cholera in
fantum by keeping up their strength,
without increasing, as most food doss
at snub times, the irritation in the in
testines that is accountable for roost
of the fatalities among children in July
and August.
This valuable baby food is every
where used iu bom -s where tbe most
modern and valuable appliances for
seouring bealth and comfort are met
with, aud yet this best of baby foods is
easily within the reach of the most
modest homes.
One hundred and fifty meals can be
made from a $1 psokage, or sufficient
to last about four weeks, maklug the
food prepared for buby cost less than
5 vents a qu irt. In thousands of un
pretentious homes, in the large cities
especially, this valuable food is found.
Medical skl.l can do no more to save
babies' lives and to keep them well
than it has done in the preparation of
li-ctatid food.
