BUFFALO COllDVT DO IT.
Seiantoa Oatbatted. Outfleldcd and Out
Pitched the Bisons Meaney Was tbo
Star-Work of the New Players.
Fully 1.200 persons took courage yes
terday and went out to the Base Bait
park to see If the little dickle bird told
the truth wheti It said that Scranton
liad a really-truly rejuvenated club of
ball tossers. The little dickie bird told
the truth, and the l.IuO brave spectators
mk the club toss the mighty Bisons up
Id the air and let them fall down hard.
Before Manager Baruie had hi- house
cleaning bee there were in the club bat
ters covered with moss and dust and
who couldn't lilt a balloon: in fact,
when they struck at the ball t!v- few
somnolent spectators were reminded of
a parcel of old women shooing hens
with brooms for weapons. Yesterday
It wa. different. Excepting Huston,
n ho Is a'urung the four new players in
town and wiio had a touch of stage
fright, we could swipe everything that
came our way and we swiped it hard
and often. We did It to the tune of fif
teen hits for nineteen bases, and. what
Is more to the point, we did it off Razzl
Dazzle McGinn's, a pitcher whu wears
a red tennis cap and us- four legs and
as many arms in a Fourth-of-JuIy de
livery calculated to paralyze the most
confident batter who ever wielded u
stick. JleOinnta is Buffalo's star
pitcher or, rather, hp was until yes
terday. Ills Nams Is Meaner.
Although Scrantons batting was the
principle reason for winning, there was
another potent factor in the game, Ilia
name is Meaney. one of the Harrtaburg
triplets. Meaney, In addition- to his
uniform, wears long slerves and a
harmless expression. He doesn't look
any great potatoes, liut he can pitch
peveral different tntres of good base
ball, and with the stick can knock the
spots off the flun. He did all this ys
tPrday, which is more than was ex
pected of him. as on Tuesday lie
pitched a sweet and winning game
against the Providence champions.
I.uby. secured from the Louivllles,
was expected to be In the box. but he
414 not arrive In time for the game.
Eaggri and Huston, the other two
Tfarrlibnrg players, will do. The form
er made a successful bunt and a crack
ing single, but had no opportunity to
display hia prowess In the field. Hus
ton, at short, accepted eveythlng that
came his way, and made two star
stops of sizzling grounders, Which
might have developed Into two-base
hits. In each case the batters reached
first, and Huston's good work does not
appear In the detailed score.
Bannon, the New Yorker, showed his
paces in rlffht field and made one of the
two grand stand plays of the game. In
the seventh Inning, with one out and
Field on second, Shearon pushed a long
drive out' toward Hyde Park that
seemed good for three bases. Bannon
ran away from the ball and toward
right center, when he made a Jump
Into the air and pulled the leather In.
His first hit was a triplet at the lxgln
nlng of the third Inning. Apparently
lie Is one of the swiftest runners on the
team.
Errors for the Association. '
Scranton played a great fielding
game. One- 'of "Sleepy" Johnson's er
rors; wan a muffed fly ball nnd which
helped along a run In the first Inning;
his other error oughit to le charged to
the management, for ass big as a moun
tain he cannot be expected ,. to top
bounders on a field like a nutmeg grutet
on a large scale.
The dehorned Bisons were never In
the game. Until the fifth Inning they
had secured only four scattered lilts
for five bases off Meaney, and when In
he seventh big Sam Wise fanned out
the second time. Buffalo must have
realized that the Jig was up.
A base on balls, Johnson's muff and
Wise's flyout to center scored Buffalo
one unearned tally In the llrst. Scran
ton scored twice on singles by Kadford,
Ktearn and Meaney and Kagen's bunt.
Score. 1-2.
In the second, with two out, Radford
got a walk to flirt, and went to second
on Regan's single. Kagan stole and
Radford came. In on Steam's single,
Kagan and Stearns scoring on Mea
ney's triple. Scor, 1-5.
BoHemis made a double In the third.
With two out Shearon pushed a hot otio
along the ground into right field. Bot
tenus came, home, and when Bannon
slipped and fed, Shearon started to
make ths circuit of the bases. Bannon
fielded the ball to Steurns, who assist
ed ..Smith In catching1 Shearon at the
plate, saving Bannon on error.

NATIONAL LEAGUE.
Only four National league games
were played yesterday, rain preventing
the Chicago-Cleveland game, and at St.
Louis, although the Cincinnati club wass
scheduled to pliiy, there was no game,
the game having probably been played
earlier In the season. Boston wan un
fortunate In the game with Brooklyn,
while the Pirates had un easy time of It
with the boulHVllle Colonels. The gap
separating the two leaders wim In con
sequence naiTowed down. Tha cham
pions are making It quite Interesting
for the leaders, being only nineteen
points behind Pittsburg In third place,
having defuted the Quakers In it game
of errors at Philadelphia. New York
goe Into sixth place as a result of Its)
victory over the Senators, forcing a tie
between Philadelphia and Brooklyn for
seventh position.

The Buffulos by fighting up from eighth

themselves a strong team and deserving of

them, but If the new team can get two

"Big Bill" Clark, sold by Scranton to
New York, has great things expected of

as a wonder, and the following from yes-

SIM DAVIS THE WINNER.
He D:fented David Davis, of Taylor, in a
Pigeon Shooting Match.
Sim Davis, the well-known pigeon
shot of the West Side, yesterday added
another victory to an already long
string by defeating David Davis, of
Taylor. The match was for $100 and
took place at the Base Ball park In the
presence of many ardent sportsmen.
Betting was lively and considerable
money changed hands.
The conditions were seventeen trained
bird each, twenty-one yards rise and
fifty yard boundary. The West Sldcr
killed fourteen birds to the Taylor
man's twelve. Slrn Davis missed his
fliJt bird and tied his opponent on the
twelfth.
David Reese, of the "West Side, was
referee. Putrolinun Thomas Lewis
was trapper for Sim Davis, and Will
Alspaugh trapped for David Duvls.
Following the match there was con
siderable discussion upon the ability
of other expert chots, and the result Is
a probable match for 3100 between the
winner and Clem Marsh.
ZIMMERMAN IS TIRED.
He Will Make No Efforts to Have with
Johnson.
Jlttsburg. I'a., June 20. A. A. Zim
merman, champion bicyclist of the
world, arrived here today. When asked
concerning the telegram from Phila
delphia In the morning papers that he
ran away from Philadelphia to avoid
making a final match with John S.
Johnson fon the championship of the
world, he denied emphatically that lie
had made an effort to avoid meeting
with Johnson; that a week ago at
Mount Holly he had offered to Tut up
$fi00 to bind the match with Johnson,
which offer was not accepted.
Now Zimmerman says he will have
nothing to do with making a match
with Johnson and that he has had all
he wants f trying to muko matches
with professional bicyclists.
