Dear Sir Replying to your fuvpr of the

fare on the Mooslc line, permit me to say
that thepopularannouncement as you sug
gest Is all right, but I should like to alter
the reading as follows: "For the. present

fare from the present terminal point in
Mooslc to the center of the city will be
10 cents that is 5 cents to the city line and

"The Parrot" song. Following Is a
local verse which he had Intended to
sing, but which was omitted:
In Scranton all the people say that min
ing's quite the go;
It's all right, but It's awkward.
They stick the lantern In your hand and
tell you hold It so;
It's all right, but It's awkward.
And then they put you In a truck and send
you down o well.
Just where you go you do not know and
really cannot tell,
But finally you think you've reached the
place they say is well,
It's all right, but It's awkward.

VERY TIRESOME GAME.
It Was Played by " Scranton and
Onunduga Indians.
A farce game of baseball was played
at the Base Ball park yesterday be
tween Scranton and the Onanduga In
dians, the home team winning by the
score of 45 and t and making 39 hits out
of a total of 44. The only amusement
afforded the 300 lukewarm, bored spec
tators was supplied by the antics of
Pitcher Johnson and Second Baseman
Ward and yaw-haw vocabulary of the
Los. The two runs by the red men
were only made through the kindness
or their opponents.
The game Is summarized as follows:

Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Washington, April 17. The tables
were turned in the Ueorgetown-Prloee-ton
series today, the Tigers going under
to the tune of 17 to 11. Four pitchers
were put In ugalnst the blue and grey
sluggers, while Muhoney, the George
town giant, pitched out a wonderful
game. Even though six costly errors
were made behind him, he kept Prince
ton's nine hits well scattered, sand
wiched in eleven strlke-outs and gave
but three bases on balls. Georgetown
gut nineteen hits with a totul of thirty
llvo bases. Nine runs were mude In
three Innings off Bradley; six in two
Innings off Hltzroth, and two In two
innings off Wilson. The lust named
was taken out when Georgetown was
commencing to land on him, and the
freshman pitcher put In.
He celebrated his entre to the dia
mond by striking out three men in
succession.- A feature of the game was
Williams' steady work behind the bat
while under lire from four different
pitchers. The other three Scranton
boys played nice fielding games, al
though each had an error on hard
chances. Murphy got in his usual
home run. The score:

TO CONTINUE THE RACES.
Gentleraon's Driving Club Has Kcor
ganlzcd for tho Present Season.
The Gentlemen's Driving olub, of this
city, which last season enjoyed muny
racing meets at the Driving park, met
last night In the Wyoming house and
elected new officers, and decided to con
tinue the races the coming- season. The
officers elected were: J. L. Crawford
president; Dr. G. E. Hill, vice president;
John Fritz, secretary; and F. R. White,
treasurer.
A proposition from the Scranton and
Elmhurst Roulevard company thsrt the
club use the kite-shaped track along the
boulevard was not accepted, the club
believing that only carriage spectators
would visit the raoes. It. was decided
to hold two meetings monthly from
May to October inclusive, at tho new
Scranton Driving park.
Mr. Goodwin, the secretary and man-
tiger of the Driving park, was present
and made known to the club members
the complete rebuilding of the park and
Its buildings. Owing to the proposed
accomodations in the grandstand and
stables and the improved track, it was
the general opinion that this season's
racing1 among gentlemen drivers will
be more successful and more largely
attended than luBt year. The detailed
plans of the club will be arranged at a
future meeting. -
8-day oak or walnut clocks reduced from
ton avenue, opposite Columbus Monu
ment.
All goods will be sold without 'reserve
at the auction sale this week at Stewart's

est our readers:
In the Field, Kencsaw Mountain,
Oct. 7, 'Ci.
The general commanding avail himself
of the opportunity In tho handsome de
fense made of "Aliatoono" to Illustrate the
most lmportunt principle in war, that
fortified posts should be defended to the
last regardless of the relative number of
the party attacking and attacked.
Allatoona was garrisoned by three
regiments, commanded by Colonel . Tour-
tellotte, and reinforced by a detach
ment from a division at Rome, under
command of Brigadier General J. M.
Corse, on the morning of the fifth, and
a few hours after was attacked by
French's division of Stewart's corps,
two other divisions being near at hand
and In BUpport. General French de
manded a surrender In a letter to
"avoid an useless effusion of blood,"

and gave but five minutes for answer.
General Corse's answer was emphatic
and strong; that he and his command
were ready for the "useless effusion of
blood" as soon as It was agreeable to
General French.
This answer was followed by an at
tack, which was prolonged for five
hours, resulting In the complete repulse
of the enemy, who left his dead on the
ground, amounting: to more than 200,
and 400 prisoners, well and wounded.
