DIAMOND DUST. Delaney will probably pitch today. Pitchers Johnson and Brown are cigar ette smokers. Herman Pltx. formerly of Scranton, has Joined the Elmlra team. The James Boys are trying to arrange a trame for next Sunday with the Eurekaa. Today the batting order of the Serantons will be changed. Johnson will bat third In place of Radford. The Giants and Phillies occupied the boxes at the Fourteenth Street theater, New York, last night to see "Captain Paul." The attendance at Soranton's opening frame Monday was larger, with one excep tion, than at any of the national games ou that day. Notwithstanding the reports that Hod. eon will play with the Phillies. Manager Barnle believes the ex-Scranton star twirler will be snapped up by Providence, Jimmy Bannon has at last signed a Boston contract, and as Collins is not showing up as well as expected, the chances are that Bannon will soon be back In right field. The base ball reporters of New York will accompany the New York club on Its first trip away from home. They will travel In a special car and will be the guests of President Freedman. Anson has shaved oft his mustache and the old time patrons in western cities are mistaking him for a young blood. His flexible movements on the diamond help to complete the disguise. Big Ed Crane, the ex-New York pitcher who held Yale down to four hits in their game with Toronto, was a mark for SprJngflold In Monday's game. -Thirteen hits were made off him. Pin Lowney, the crack Brown third baseman, will probably enter the Univer sity of Pennsylvania next year, and os this 'is Blakely's last year, Pennsylvania Is anxious to seoure him. Georgetown has requested its faculty to allow them to play in Philadelphia next Monday with the University team. If they receive permission the postponed game of last Saturday will be played off then. "Dad" Clarke wants his release from the New York club. He says he has not had a fair trial since going there, over a year ago, and he declares that he docs not wish to earn his salary by sitting on the bench. Of the six games played by the Giants, Meekin pitched in two which were won, German in one which was lost and one which was a victory, and Rusie in two defeats. And yet liusle's work the last time be was In the box was the best pitch ing exhibition of the year. As the Boston players were leaving the Providence grounds a crowd of some 100 hoodlums stoned them. Tenney got a painful blow on the side of his head, and Wilson bad his hat torn by a large stone. This was after that close 8-7 game, and speak Well 'for 'Providence hospitality. Exchange. When will the-Scranton" management give the base ball park a name? Our ground is Hhe only one In the Eastern league, or any league, which Is known by the commonplace-title' of "The Base Ball Park.", ' Call" it -"Lackawanna," "Dia mond,' .".Tripp," Bolcs" or anything ex cept Its present meaningless name. In Monday's gome Ward marie one run, two hits, five put outs and four assists; Clark made one run, two hits and thir teen put outs; Brown made one twd-base hit and seven assists. Johnson (fielder) had six put outs to his credit, Brady three and Houle two. Of Whitehead's four put outs, three were difficult foul fly catches. The Actives, of -the North End, have re organized. Last season they lost but two out of fourteen games. The players are: Charles Lewis, c; William Llttlejohn, p.; W. Jones, ss.; Daniel Hoolehan, lb.; Bert Grlffln, 2b. t Harry Pick, 3b.; Arthur Mills, Iff-: D. Emery, cf., and W. Moser, rf. James Llttlejohn and George Howells will be a reserve bqttery Hundreds of' base ball lovers during the eary part of yesterday afternoon were un certain, whether a game would be played or not. This fact suggests a pointer for the management, Why not hoist a flag over some building when a game Is to be played? The Tribune Is Informed that the association building on Wyoming avo nue can be used for that purpose. A big scrap occurred at the game be tween the PotC'es and Cuban Giants at Pottsvllle on Wednesday. It was brought on by foul language used by Tlghe, who afterward struck Jackson, the first base man , for the Cuban Giants. The negro went Into Tlghe and would have whipped him badly were It not for outside Interfer ence. The catcher of the Giants begged the people to let the two men "fight It out," feeling confident that his first base man would land on top. Exchange.

" Conse quently the game bears as little ofllclul Importance aa It would If it had bean nil exhibition game. A bot that tho score will go on official record is a losing wagur. From any other standpoint It Is obvious that the betters must decide the matter among themselves. LAWN TENNIS PROSPECTS. Tournament of tho Scranton Lawn Club Is Doubtful. The Indications are not bright for the reorganization of the Scranton Lawn club this year. The matter has been considered Informally by the of ficers anil pluyers and a negative de- clslon Is likely. It is argued thnt the only desirable court for club and tournament pur poses are on the Piatt place grounds, which will be torn up during the build ing of tho Spruce street bridge. The fact Mint a greater number of young people than ever before will be out of the city from July 1 to Sept. 15 is another reason for not continuing the club. Mennwhlle, numerous sets of young people are engaging suitable va cant lots In many residence sections or have already begun work on the courts It does rut seem probable, however, that the frame will be pluyed as general ly In the city as In past seasons. COMPANY I) ELECTION Possibility of a Spirited Contest for tho Captaincy. There Is a possibility of a spirited election In Company D, Thlrteeiith regl ment, next week Friday night to till the vacant captaincy caused by the recent election f Captuln Barnard to major It Is rumored that tho command of the company will be sought by Second Lleutcnunt Fremont Stokes. First Lieutenant R. M. Stratton Is, however, the only positively announced candidate for the captaincy. First Sergeant Thomas Glllam will probably be the choice for second lieutenant. Fltzslmmons and Mnhcr. Bob Fitzslmmons and Peter Miiher have made a contract with .the Edison KInetoseope company to fight six rounds before the camera for. a gift of $3,000. Tho rounds will be of one minie each, with three minutes' rest, Jhe Idea being to have a lively battle. If either man is knocked out before the end of the sixth round, the winner will take all the money. If both stay to a finish the one receiving- the decision will get 33,000 and the other 32,000.

Wls9waesser has taken his departure from the South Side and is stationed with his family somewhere on the West Mountain..

Resolutions were passed at the meet ing denouncing him. These resolutions were In German and were handed over to John Lenten, with the understanding mat ne should translate them into the vernacular and give them to the news papers for publication.

He was a tall, long-nosed, lantern Jawed specimen, and when ho drove down Lackawanna avenue yesterday afternoon caused considerable com ment. Tho team had two signs, which cov ered their major portion, and tho famil iar words "For Sale" were decidedly conspicuous. A Tribune reporter saw him several hours later Just ub he was emerging from a livery stable. "Ys. I've got it team for sale," ho said, "The best pair of four-year-olds that ever wore a horse-shoe; come and look at "em." The oonlldentlul manner In which he talked, and familiar way he immediate ly ndopted of placing his arm around one's shoulder and gradually sliding It off, was explained when he reached the barn, for be had a large durk colored bottle underneath his buffalo' robe. Ills feelings knew no bounds when he found that alone and single was his fate with the bottle, but a couple of huge swal lows from it, which, at each gulp, caused his prominent Adam's apple to dive down beneath tho folds of a store shirt, sifbn upparently assuaged his grief, lie became more and more con flndental, and after a few moments the pedigree of his team was established. "Arsenic is a help," he said, "makes 'em foam at the mouth, and these city fellers think they're rnmbunktlous. They 'alnt though," he continued, mak ing a huge lunge, which was cleverly parried. "Then I've been stuffln' 'em don't know how to make a horse look fat? Don't know how to make his eyes bright? Never heard about puttln' turpentine on their feet to give 'em life, and mako 'em step high? Why, young feller, you don't know the hoss of to day; but my theory is live and learn. Now, two years ago I had a black mare that I bought for ten dollars from a New York Street Car company. They had 'em listed Just like dry goods. I took her down on my farm and let her run loose. Last spring I sold her for Just a clean hundred dollars, and got" "These two horses you have here?" "Who told you?" he asked; "Well, you did guess It right." At this Juncture he began to feel under the buffalo robe, and soon the bronchial mechanism was again In operation. He then offered a cigar that looked as If it had stayed in the press longer than necessary and might be composed of a Binghamton filler and Great Bend wrapper, and after puffing vigorously, continued: "I rather like you, and if you ever get stuck on any horse flesh let me know, and I'll help you out. You see, I don't do no more hard work. I sell and buy and there ain't a town of no size In these parts but what I know. I'm foxy, too the grass don't grow up between my toes. Why, I made over two hundred dollars on hoss trades last year, right durin' them hard times. Say, young man, what s your business?" Upon being told his manner changed to the "cold hand" and "marble heart," but he evidently felt thnt too much had already been said, so thawed out enough to remark: 'Say, are you honest one of these fellers that writes up about things and prints 'em in the paper? Sporting editor? Probably seen a genuine kite shaped track? Plenty of them, of course; know more about horses in a minute than I do in a year. Sporting editor, and you're going to print this all in the paper. The Tribune, and ruin the legitimate business of an old farm er. Young man, of you do, think how you will ruin me! Arsenic, turpentine and stufnn'1 I'll never tell no man again how I make money." "Say," he said, as he went back to arrange his buffalo robe, "Mr. Sporting Editor, if you won't tell my name, and '11 keep quiet on that arsenic business, I'd kind er like to have you print our Interview, cause up in York state we go a heap on the Interviews with Chauncey De pew. They call him doctor now, though I never knew he had time to practice and run a railroad too, The next time I come to Scranton I won't do no Htuffln' or arsenic business, and then you can rig up a handle on my nigh Jaw and pump all the interview you want."

THE OLD PACTIONAL FEELING An Effort to Stir It I'p Again Causes Much Discussion Among Musicians, Carroll-Giblln Nuptials - Alder man John Uus a Puzzling Cubo. tTho West SIJo Intorcuts of The Tribune have been placed In tho hands of Kmer- son Owen, to whom all news announce ments and complaints may bo addresacd. Among tho musicians on the West Side the absorbing topic of dlncusslon yesterday was the unfortunate Bcene witnessed at the rehcaral of Mrs. J. i Meckel's Ladles' choir Monday night when. It Is alleged that Mrs. Roderick JoneH, who was a warm supporter of Mr. Protheroe's choir, spoke in a man ner which has been severely condemned to Mrs. Heckel, the directress ot the choir. Tho Incident Is deplored owing to the efforts which have been made by Judge Edwards and other prominent citizens to harmonize the conflicting factions of musicians in Hyde Park. When the rival West Side choirs competed at the World's fair, public opinion was divided in the support of the two Institutions, and much bitter feeling was manifested by both parties. Time has, however, acted as a charm upon the antagonists, who have agreed to lot "by-gones be by-gones," and the result of this agree ment Is witnessed in the harmonious relations which exist between the mem bers of the Scranton Choral union, who, under the directorship of John T. Wat- kins, are working vigorously to capture the $1,000 prize at the Wllkes-Uarre eisteddfod. Mrs. Heckel hae also a well organized ladles' choir, and it is claimed that none of the old partisan feeling was shown until Mrs. Jones appeared upon the scene. Who Owns the Horse? Alderman John Is In a legal quandary and has taken twenty-four hours to de cide the ownership of a horse, claimed by Henry Maugher, of Park Place, and William Brink and W. A. Cobb, both of the West Side. Maugher recently sold the horse to Brink, when Cobb ap peared on the scene and claimed the quadruped, alleging that he had hired it to Maugher. Brink, In defense. claimed that he had proofs that Maugher had paid Cobb for the steed at the time of his purchase. After hearing volumes of complicated and contradictory evidence the alderman authorized Constable Timothy Jones to take charge of the horse until this even ing, when he wll deliver his decision, Cupid Claims Another. "While the wedding bells were ring ing yesterday morning at 8.30 o'clock two hearts were united in marriage by Rev. Fnther Whalen,- in St. Pat rick's church.

After the con clusion of the ceremony the guests par took of a wedding dinner at the home of tho brlde'H mother on Jackson street, and In the afternoon Mr. and Mrs. Gib lln Went to New York, where they will reside. Mr. Giblln Is a member of the Brooklyn squad of policemen. Flood In a Church. Preparatory to the Intended baptism of five converts In the First Wehm Bap tist church, which ocurred last evening, the church baptestry was, an usual, sup plied with water in the afternoon. Jan itor Jones went away and, after a few hours absence, returned and found the baptestry empty. The water had es caped by means of a leak In the bottom and after covering the floor of the church auditorium had soaked through to the lecture room beneath. Great damage is tho reBult. The plaster Is loose or fallen In parts of the celling of the lower room. The carpet on the up Btnlri floor la also damaged to a great extent. Cruelty to Animals. Upon complaint make Monday to Mr. Bans, Officer Timothy Jones, assistant agent for the Society of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, went to the Fellows estate on Luzerne street and found an old bay horse, broken down and disabled for work by sore limbs. The animal was the property of James James, of Luzerne street, who tugged it out on the green to die. A passer-by noticed tho animal lying on the grass and gave information. Agent Jones shot and killed the sufferer and had the body destroyed. Drlof Expressions. John T. Richards has purchased a new flyer.

It-4a learned on good authority by your correspondent that Rev. J. C. Ho gan, who was disciplined by the late Wyoming conference (for alleged In subordinate utterances) by being sent to Rush, a hamlet thirteen miles from a railroad, will decline to serve there. He will take the Prohibition lecture plat form, on which he had already cut no unimportant figure and will continue to reside In Forest City. The very important young man who has been trying to impress on the peo ple here for some time past without suc cess his wealth of Intellectuality and who haa been representing to folks in this borough that The Tribune had no correspondent here because we sent In only two batches of news items last week, is either even Blower of percep tion than we have hitherto given him credit for, or else has developed a trait even worse than stupidity, namely that of prevarication. This- same gentle youth has been bragging through a cer tain Journal he represents as well aB in private concerning his abilities as a Journalist until everybody Is disgust ed. The quantity of his matter may be all right, but the quality Is problem at leal, if his efforts for sone time past have been fair samples. Peter Quick, of Windsor, N. Y., was on business here Friday and Saturday, Mrs. F. W. iBlvlns and two children, of Poughkeepsle, N. Y., are visiting at the home of J. M. Bivlns.

Mrs. John Burke, of Main street, Is 111. G. J. Thomas, of the Bloomsburg Nor mal school, visited Greenwood yester day. Rumor has It that the residents of Stafford street are to petition to court to have the etreet made a township road. The petitioners claim that tho street Is In a deplorable condition and almost Impassable and if opened up for tralHu thnt It would be beneficial to the property owners of the line.
