Syracuse today.
It Is posible that either Meaney, De-
laney or Luby will pitch today.
Syracuse tumbled Into fifth position yes
terday and Providence goes up a peg.
This leaves Syracuse the club next above
us, and the games today and tomorrow
will be hard fought.
it is the Wllkes-Barre Leader's opinion
that Manager Shannon will begin to climb
with the Wllkes-Barre team Just as soon
as he gets down to steady business and
gives the pitchers their regular rotation,
playing the nine In their right positions.
Last year things were going along nicely
until that unfortunate experiment with
BUckburn et al. commenced.

In view of the fact that there Is no law

work In the different counties of the state
preparing a petition, to the governor with
this end In view.
Jim Hull has stopped training for his
match with Joe Choynskl, and has gone to

hud 'been run.
The first event was a one inlle nov
ice, which waij won by William

"rooters" with them. Some objection
was raised to Corser entering this
race, the objectors claiming that he
had not been a resident of Lackawanna
county the required time, but neverthe
less he was allowed to start. James, of
Wllkes-Barre, led the first mile, fol
lowed by Gardner, Ben Kellt r and Wll
lard Keller, the other riders keeping In
a bunch. At the one and a half mile,

TWO WORKMEN INJURED.
Their Thrilling Kzperlouca on a Falling
IJsvator in Ulgh School Building.
Two workmen on the new high school
building hud a thrilling experience In a
fulling elevator yesterday morning.
John Schleld. a carpenter, sustained a
fracture of the lower left leg and was
taken to the Lockawunna hospital
Charles Heir, foreman of the brlckloy
ei'S, escaped with a few bruises.
The men entered the elevator from the
second floor Just before noon. Schleld
carried In each hand several carpenter's
tools. For the first few feet the eleva
tor descended slowly, and then made
sudden drop. Heir's presence of mind
probably saved him from serloui In-
Jury. He grasped the beam at the top
of the carriage and pulled himself clear
from the floor, so that when the bottom
was reached the force of his fall was
broken. Schleld had no time to relieve
himself of his tools, whose added weight
lncreused the shock of the fall.
Heir lives on the South Hide. Schleld
Is 'married and lives on South Ninth
street. He blames nobody fur the acci
dent.

Correspondent C. F. Dewey, who has
passed many years In Berlin, tells the
Washington Post a number of entertain
ing Ukcldents about Kaiser Wilhelm. The
emperor of Germany, as Mr. Dewey pic
tures him, Is a good deal more of a Dem
ocrat to his intimate friend than most
persons Imagine. An example of this is
furnished by a recent Incident that oc
curred after the emperor and empress'
visit to Bismarck at Frledrlchsruhe.
"As they were driving away from th
scene of the triumphs of the old chancel
lor," euys Mr. Dewey, "something hap
pened to one of th wheel of the carriage
in which the couple were seated. Th
coachman brought the horses to a step,
and it was found on examination that It
was necessary to procure another convey
ance with which to continue the Journey
Some farm hands were working in the
fields, and the lackey or the coachman ap
pealed to them for asslstanc In procuring
means for transporting their majesties
to their destination. The held laborers
promptly appealed to their employer, and
In due course of time an old milk wagon
was brought into the light. It was the
sorriest kind of a cart, and neither you
nor I would have cared to make a mile in
it; but it seemed to suit the emperor to
the dot. The horses were hitched to '.he
milk cart, and laying two bundles of straw
In the front, so as to form a seat, and
placing a horse blanket over them, th
kaiser and the kalserln sat on it, and
drove away as well contented as though It
was their state carriage."
"One of the kaiser's particular friends,"
continues Mr. Dewey, "is Uhl, the leading
caterer of Berlin. By the way, Uhl mar
ried an American heiress, the daughter of
the great New York brewer, Bechtel,
with whom he got something like a million
and a half. The emperor dine much at
Uhl's, and likes him personally. He used
to serve in the guard. Every morning
Uhl takes a constitutional on a fine stall
ion in the Thiergarten. About the same
hour the kaiser rides in the Thiergarten
for Ills health. And so it happen that the
emperor and the chief caterer of Berlin
meet. 'Grues dloh (Jott, Uhl!' th kalsr
will shout, at which Uhl will salute like
the old guardsman that h is. 'No fool
Ishness,' the emperor will call out, or as
we would say In English, 'None of that,
Uhl; we are comrades!' And then they
will strike Into a canter together like old
cronies. One day th emperor said: 'Now,
tell me, I'hl, for you have often seen me
dine, am I a glutton? 'No, your majesty,'
replied the caterer, 'you ar a very moder
ate eater, but when It come to drinking
you have no reason to be ashamed of your
record!' At which the kaiser brok Into a
loud laugh."
Another thing about the emperor, ac
cording to Mr. Dewey. 1 hi considera
tion ror his soldiers. This trait is thus Il
lustrated: "The sentries at the palace
whenever they behold a sprig of th sov
ereign house approaching, even a babe
in the nurse's arms, ar compelled to come
to a halt and present arm. The crown
prince and his brother, lads of about 8 and
10, thought It would be a good Joke to keep
the sentry on nettle by compelling him
to present arms each time they appeared,
while they hid behind a pillar and darted
In and out of their place of concealment
for the sole purpose of making the poor
sentinel go through the formality of pre
senting hi gun. How long this game
continued matters not, but finally the em
peror witnessed the performance unob
served by th princes, and seizing them
both by the neck, he shook them with con
siderable violence, and exclaimed, 'You
assume to be soldiers and abua sol
dier.' " 1
A writer In the Washington Star gives
a woman the credit for the nomination f
Cleveland In 189-. As the. story goes,
Eckles, not then comptroller of the cur
rency, had been a Morrison man. His ef
fort was to secure from his region a dele
gation favorable to Morrison and against
Palmer. At the last hour hope of success
deserted him. II wired Morrison, in this
city, that It was doubtful If he could push
through a Morrison Instruction, but thut
he could get his folks to Instruct for Cleve
land. As between Cleveland and Palmer
they Inclined toward the ex-presldent.
Wliut should he do? Morrison wus not
hero when the message came, but his wife
was. Mrs. Morrison is one of the rarvst
of women, devoted to Colonel Morrison,
and withal of an Intelligence and decision
of character which makes her nn admir
able helpmeet to the colonel. Mrs. Mor
rison, in the absence of her husband,
opened the telegram. It was too late to
get word to Colonel Morrison. She must
reply herself. Aftar carefully weighing
the pros and cons of the situation Mrs.
Morrison wired Eckels: "Instruct for
Cleveland." It came Just In time. Eckels
promptly acted on It; his was the First Il
linois district for Cleveland; the remainder
followed suit, and when th convention
roll was called In Chicago the great state
of Illinois cast her solid vote for Cleve
land. Where Cleveland might have been
without It la another story.
