The Scranton team wus to have
played a home same of base bull Sat
turdny with Mike Kully's Allentown
veterans. The two nines were on the
field and the visitors played their
game with exertion jut suilkieut to
win by a score of 7 to i. J. lie borau
ton team was there also but of base
bull they played none, excepting pos
sibly the gasping and dishearted of
forts of Cahill, Johnston and Smith.

found for a meagre balf-dozn hits, al

was pounded into a cocked l:at and
was Incidentally the victim of twenty
seven plunketB.
The only King's wrinkled visage
was wrenthed in smils from the call

made merry with the grand stand

''wuittill we meet Providence," etc ,

STATE TEAM FOR SCRANTON.
Was to Be Dlaonasad at Last Nia-ht's
Philadelphia Meeting.
It is currently reported in base ball
circles that Marty Swift Is enthused
with the idea that Scranton oould sup
port a Stat league ttam and that the
project would ba prtsented for aotion
at a meeting of State league managers
at Philadelphia last night.
. Daring Swift's retirement from the
management of the Seranton team bis
advisors have urged him on iu the
natter and Secretary Diddlebock is
Bald to be willing to support Swift in
his purpose. Swift was out of the city
yesterday and neither his affirmation
or denial to tbe story could be secured.
However, several of his Intimates al
leged that the ex-manager is still
slated for the soft and sure base ball
position at Carbondale, and that lie
' would not be so foolish as to interest
himself further in Seranton base ball
matters.
KOTES OF THE DIAMOND.
Scranton plays at ' Wilkes-Barre today,
tbe latter team comes here tomorrow and
w
the clubs will then alternate between the
two cities until Friday and Saturday, wtiou
Allentown will play in Scranton.

with Breach of Contract
The West End wheelmsn, of Wilkes
Barre, are hot uf ter John S. Johnson
for breach of contraot. He agreed to
ride at their meet on Jul? 2, and was
extensivnly advertised. On tne day of
the race the managers got a tulegrsm
stating that owing to the railroad
strike be wonld be unable to reach
Wilkts-Barre.
The club cluims to have positive
proof that the strike in no way inter
fered with Johnson's movements, and
that a train which he took to compete
lu some Canadian races on that day
would have euabled him to makecon
uectious with another train which ar
rived in Wilkea-Bitrre on the morning
of the day on which the races were
held.

MAKE THE BEST CF IT.

The thine; to do is to make the host pos
sible nse of n bad situation. The indus
tries which have been deprived of ade
quate protection must suitor, and thou
sand of working men and women will find
it hard to muke both ends meet, but other
thousands will find the situation improved
through the revival of general business
and the enlarged employment of capital.
The Democrats and Mugwumps believe
tliHt they have struck a death blow at the
policy of protection. We do not believe
it. After threo years' experience of Dem
ocratic tariff legislation, it wo roust have
it, the popular demand for protection of
American industries, which has been the
policy of tho land from the boEinniiij' of
tho republic, will be stronger thau erer.
LETTING GROVER DOWN.
Philadelphia Record, Dem.
Business men know, nlthongh those who
make and unmake tariffs seem to be un
aware of it, that tbe prosperity ot this
country, while it may be delayed or dis
turbed, enn never be destroyed by the
manipulators of tax rates. The resources
of the nation are superior to the unwis
dom of ths presidents and congresses.

lettors. I have patent right to my land and
receipt for taxes to show. Call at Si Third
avenue; ring bell. I can be interviewed for
six days at said address.
Of courso a good looking young woman
reporter of Tho World answered tho ad
vertisement. That's a way tho Now York
women reporters have. This is hor story:
John McCurtcn Is not bad looking, do
splto his 53 years. Ills clour hluo eyes and
erect carriage show that ho is a man of
good habits and unubatcd energy. Tho
punting landlord of 84 Third avenuo
showed mo up numberless steps to John's
room. In answer to my knock he said,
"Come in," and I wulkod in andwalkod
right out again. It was a hull bedroom,
containing a bed, a washstand and ono
chair.
"I wii9 jlst goln out to cat," said John
McCurtcn, coming into tho hall, where I
stood, "but I'll wait a little whilo, though
I'm powerful hungry."
That, of course, Impressed mo most fav
orably. Jlero wus a man who would not
long postpono his dinner to gain a wifo.
"Mr. McCartcn," I began, and I could
feel that I was blushing, "I saw your ad
vertisement for a wifo. Will I dof I am
a good, hardworking girl. Will I All ull
tho requirements!"'
"Well, I duiuio," ho answered musing
ly, whilo ho looked mo over from head to
too, 1-I think you might do. Out, you
sec, wo will hnvo to tnlk about it first.
Ca-ca-can you milk a cow?"
Ho was plainly nervous. Ho seemed to
fear that I would tako him out and marry
him forthwith.
"'Why did you advertise for a wlfef" I
asked. "Aro tiicro not enough girls out
whore you live without coming to New
York for a wlfef"
"Well, there's plenty of girls out there,"
ho paid, "but they're shiftless. Tho ono I
did want to marry was u-waitln for mo,
but when I went away to earn somo money
slio went and married some ono else, and
that's it. Can you feed hogs?"
"Why, Mr., McCartcn, do you requlro
that tho woman you marry shall have
$100?"
"Well, you see," ho answered, leering,
"there's many things to buy when wo go
to Nobraska. There's a team, pigs and
many little things. Muybe you can't
cook?"
"Yes. I am a good cook."
"Sure, I'm mighty glad o' that. I'm
thinklii of hnvin mo sister and her hus
band li vo with us. Would you mintl thntf "
"Oh, no." J
"(iood fer you. Mo sister is dcllcuto,
but I would build them u houso l.lio ours
and rent half me land to lilin. There is no
finco around tho house, but a fine well
and a chicken houso. How ninny chickens
have you ivcr killed!'" i
" Whnt kind of a houso do you live lnf"
I asked question for question.
"It's built o' sods, but tho lnsldo Is co-
mcnted. After you dig nine foot out thero,
tho soil is as white as any cement, and
that's on the lnsldo of mo house. One of
ho neighbors wrote mo a letter and told
mo there was a leak in tho house and
asked mo whether ho hadn't better tulo
tho furniture out and keep It in his house,
I wnto him no, that I would soon bo
homo moself and 'tend to things."
"Whoro do you live, miss?" ho asked
suddenly.
"in west ourti-cnth street. I am ft
typewriter and work in a down town ot
flco."
"Thero would bo no trouhlo about tbo
money?" ho asked, after a minute's si
lence, during which ho looked at mo again
from top to too. "You could get tho $100
all right?"
"Oh, yes!" I answered. "Ihav j moro
than that. But tell mo whut work do you
expect your wifo to uo on the fuviiif I am
strong, but I am not used to very hard
Work."
"Only cook for us two to rait," ho an
swered, ''an keep tho hous'9 clean and
feed tbe chickens on 'tend tho hogs an
milk tho cow. That's not hrtrd work for a
strnppin woman like you. l int you haven't
told mo whether you havo tivorfed hogs or
milked a cow," i
"I havo not. But I mii'ht learn even
tliut."
"To be sure you could. I'd learn you."
"Well, then," I said, everything being
seemingly settled to his satisfaction, "I'll
go homo and think It ovt.r, aud tomorrow
if you nro of tho sumo mind"
"Oh, Tcamo near forgottinl" ho Inter-
ruptcu. " What religion hroyon?"
"I om oCalhollc," Z rmswered unthink
ingly. :

man takes a "tip" like a railway porter or
a cab driver. It is a pleasant sensation to
find a large, liuudsonio gold coin represent

tbe "accustomed duty" (by which is meant
the foe) should bo presented to the clergy

The rector of one ot the largest churches
in this city assures me that his poor people
seldom offer a fee. The legal sura of two
