Wilkos-Earre Kan Karoos Rally from a
Traces la tb. Seventh Inning-.
fractal to the Scranton Tribun.
"Wimces-Barre, Aufr. 23. Today's
Cams between the iltibies and beranton,
despite the bit? score aud the many er
rors, was. from a Wilkes-Barre point of
view, one ot the most interesting or ine
season. The visitors started in at a
rattling gait, aud on timely batting,
daring bate-running and some costly
errors managed to get a lead of sisruus
before Wllkes-Barre was able to score.
In the third inning McLinghlin was
taken out of the box and Keenan sub
stituted. Scranton got three runs off
Lira and increassd their soore to ten,
Ling seven ahead of MVllkes-Barre.
The lead was maintained until the
seventh inning, when bases on balls
and five costly mors, together with
the home team's heavy batting, gave
the home team ten runs. Scranton
spurted and sucteeded in adding four
rnns to their seore, but were unable to
overtake the babies. The features of
the gams were the batting of Warner
and the fielding of Cahill. Score:

GLINTS FROM THE DIAMOND.
Thompson is out for the batting chain
plouuhip this season. He is hitting like a
Trojan, nnd pushing Deluhanty autl Duffy
very hurd for the lead. Cross is also close
up among the leaders.
If soino of the olavors who are so sensi
tive to criticism were to hear the remnrks
passed about them on th. bleachers and in
the grand stands at times, they would
think they were used remarkably well by
me press. uostou lioraiu.
The Kentucky base ball player who was
struck by lightning while playing a gnm
on Sunday would serve better as a moral
lesson were It not tor the fact that a
church steeple in the immediate vicinity
was struck and demolished at tho Bame
time. Baltimore Herald.
Few are ftware of the fact that Snorts
man's park, St. Louis one of the finest
Dan parus in tne country narrowly oa
caped conflagration recently. It was
again a lighted cigarette that dropped be
tween tho seats and ignited tho timbers
supporting the structure, but luckily the
ure was uncovered in time.
Manager Kuntzsch has signed Rafter of
the Binghamtous to relievo Hess, who h
one of tho best catchers that ever played
on the Star team. Now, if Mr. Kuntzch
could gut some one to take tho place of the
reno called liauseweln a little better ball
could bo expected than has been played in
tho last few weeks. Syracuse Jourual.
Tommy McCarthy made one of his won
derful 'trBu bull" plays in Boston in a re
cent game and it saved the game for the
champions. With no one ont aud a man
on first and second McCarthy tapped a Uy
ball in the outfield aud before the Pitts
burg pluyers realized what had happened
a beautiful triple olar hud been executed.
It was a play that will seldom, if ever, bo
seen again on the diamond, and only a
McCarthy or a Dully nnd suchatenmas
tne Bostons could oxtcute it successfully.

WITH THE WHEELMEN.
It is estimated that abont 80.000 women
in tho United States ride bicyclei.
In the one kilometre bicycle race at the
Velodrome de Seine in Paris, Farman won
the championship of France.
Director Talcott, of New York, has a
wacer of (tiW with Playwricht Charlev
Iloyt that Boston does not win the pen
i.ant this year.
Twenty-five pound whools are ridden
harder nowadays than fifty-five ones were
three years ago, and with as little or less
injury to tne wheels.
Sawdust sprinkled on a machine after a
wet, muddy ride is recommended for
clettulug purposes. It absorbs the mois
ture like blotting paper and falls off when
dry, taking the mud with it.
Buffalo is to have another bie twentv-
five mile road raco this year. It will be
promoted by Penseyres & Haberer, and

everyone, and it is expected that all the

were first, Edwards and Max second and
V ueeler and James tuird.
Manager Selee says that he saw Burnt.
of the Brooklyns, throw sand in Tucker's
eyes when Uodson recently threw the ball
to catch the runner napping. A player
who would do such a thing ought to be
kept from playing ball and the Boston club
ought to prefer charges against him.
Tucker lost sight of the ball, ot course.
and it was a lucky thing that it did not

Cleuatlness la Shaving.
Notwithstanding that the subject has re
cently given rise to some discussion In the
daily press, there can be no reasonable
doubt as to the causation ot parasitic syco
sis, and the frequent responsibility of bar
bers for its propagation. We will not
deny that tho disease may occasionally
arise from accidental contact other than
that of infected soap and brush. Its close
connection with these, however, is affirmed
by the evidence ot a common and persistent
sequence of events.
We need not dwell upon the tenacity
witn which it clings to the hairof the face,
nor will we examine the methods used by
the dermatologist for its destruction. Sani
tary cleanliness is here better than any
remedy. We are advised to shave our
selves, to avoid the cheap barber, to use
precautions with brushes and the like.
Terhups the advice first given would prove
the best, but the professional operator is to
many persons indispensable.
The t ruest wisdom for one's self In such
a cuso is clearly to use due care In selecting
a barber. Whatever he is not, he must be
cleuu and careful. It should not be for-
fcottun that there are possible safeguards
well within the reach of this class of
tradesmen which a customer mav fairlv
exact for his own security as part of the
common law of shaving. These Include
the uso of perfectly fresh water and soap,
or preferably shaving cream, as admitting
of exclusive uso, n clean brush and a clean
razor for each person shaved.
We should also advise, as a further but
not superfluous precaution, that instru
ments after washing be dipped in some
convenient antiseptic solution. Such meas
ures us these require but littlo time to
carry them out. They are needful in order
to insure immunity from contaglou, and
the poorest will find them worth a small
nddltiou to the barber's fee. London Lan

"Onr llaby."
She was a tiny littlo girl, with dirty,
sun tanned hair, a blue calico dress and
baro feet. Sho carried in her arms a baby
half as large as herself, and the baby was
so licavy that it sagged down in the mid
dle, giving the infant the appearance of
being held by the feet nnd nape of the
neck. There was some excitement around
the corner of tho next block on Wash
street, and the children were hurrying for
ward like mad from nil directions. The
little girl tried to run, but the baby was
too heavy, and her breath gave out. Said
1, in a spirit of badinage:
"Drop the baby, sis, and go see what the
trouble is. .
She stopped and stared nt ma
"I say, put the baby down on tho side
walk and run."
"Yer must take me fer a fool, mister."
"Why?"
" 'Cos this is our baby."
"Well, suppose it Is. I'll stay here and
watch it lor vou."
"No, yer won't, mister. Yer might carry
it Oil."
"What if I didl Ain't you tired carrying
it around and making your back ochef"
"Nuw, I ain't. Suy, mister, this is the
only little buby we'vo got, aud if yer only
knowed how sho can crow and laugh yer
wouldn't want me to do no such thine.
This baby hain't got no ma 'cept me, and
Jin nnd me couldn't do 'thout her. She
sets up in a high chair at thotabloand
crows nnd kicks while me and pa eats, aud
at night I rock her to sleep like ma used
to dot When ma died the baby didn'.t
know no better, but just lauehed and hol
lered, nnd I cried so 1 couldn't keep her
sun. rut ner down ou the sidewalk! Fool
killer '11 git you, mister, ef you stay around
uere long." bt. Louis Republic,
In tho llouso of Commons.
"My dear sir," observed the great man
to me as he lit another cigarette, "you
must understand that nothing is as it used
to bo here. Times are changed; so are
manners; so Is the shape of people's hats.
Look at that fellow, Milkpot, who is pass
ing us now observe that monstrosity he
has on his head, a Mexican sombrero, fit

would have dreamed of entering the house

Pulmerston's timer" Look at the brim, sir.
It spreads over the terrace like an awning.
Milkpot might hold a tea party under it.
Thnt shows what is going on.
"We don't even dress like gentlemen
any more. A man may do anything now
adays and no one will think the worse of
him. It used to be uu understood thing
that divisions should not be sprung upon
us in the dinner hour, or nt other unseem
ly times, nnd consequently we could go
away comfortably and dine without fear
of coming back and lluding the ship scut
tled. But now we are obliged to be here
all through a sitting we dure not leave
the place, even for ten minutes.
"Well, we cnuuot always be stuck on the
treasury bench, like so many enchanted
apes, and if we go into the library some
body is sure to be after us with a question,
or a deputation, or a request which is ut
terly Irregular, not to say disgusting. So
you see it lias become necessary to provido
each of us with a room. A lot of servants
and clerks huve been turned out of this
part of the house, and here we are In their

The Victoria Cross.
The question has been asked, How many
officers are entitled to wear the Victoria
cross f lam able to answer the question.
Tho mere statement of number reveals at
once the exclusive characterof this reward
for vulor. No less, however, than thirty
nine general officers are entitled to weur it
an indication of the fact that promotion
to exalted military rank in England has in
a great muny caHes been the reward of he
roic merit. Thirty colonels and lieutenant
colonels are entitled to wear the decora
tion; twenty-two majors, eleven captains,
eight lieutenants nnd five quartermasters
possess the sume privilege.
Fifty-nine of the medals, however, are
held by noncommissioned officers and pri
vates, thirty-four being in possession of
privates, five of lance corporals, three of
corporals, seven of sergeants, six of color
sergeants, two of quartermaster sergeants
and two sergeant majors. One clergyman
possesses the medal, the Rev. J. W. Adams,
