Second Uamc.
The much-touttd Kilroy appeared in
the box for Syracuse In the second
game, and fcu.t for his wlldnass In the

DIAMOND DUST.
Scranton ut Wllkes-Uarre today.
SprliiKtiel could no: solve Hodson.
Scranton and Wllkes-Hurre w-r the
only Kastern league clubs lhat did nut piny
yesterday.
Scranton has won ten out of the hvt
th.rtcen Kaincj pluyed. Wlll:es-Barr has
dropped live of ilio lunt seven games on
their own grounds.
In yesturday's game with Hoclietter,
SyraeiiHe knock.il Duryea out of the box
and then lost the pame by one. run, Hun
repeating the performance of the first
game with Sera in on on Saturday.
The reason for Sunday ball games Is
forcibly given by the atfmlance llgurcs in
Rochester yesterday; over 7,Cot persons
taw the game with Syrucuse. If a losing
club draws such u crowd, what would a
wlun'-ng club do?
Milt Whitehead, re leased by Scranton,
played third base for Rochester yesterday.
H made made two outs and two assists
ami was the only one on the team who
failed to get a hit. He was five times at
bat and sacriticed in the lust Inning.
Some time ago Manuger Burnle air-er-tallied
that late hours and other things
were Interfering with the men's playing.
The result was a severe lecture and Hie luy
Ing down of a code of rules on morals and
bed hours. Manager Burnle has un op
portunity to repeat his former action.
Brady was caught at the plate In the sev
enth Inning of th second game, but he
would have hctn declared out In any event
owing to fl.nlth's attempt to confuse
Rafter. Smith and Brady came In on
Ward's single to right, and ufUr crossing
the rubber Smith turned ubout umi ran
in front of Rafter Just before lie received
the bull.
There Is no truth In th- rumor of Ward's
prospective release. Including Ward,
there are only twelve players on the team
and with Ward released, the club's extra
list would consist of only one catcher and
two pitchers. NVw York may recall
Tommy Bannon. In such an event Rad
ford would be played la the Meld, his old
position, and Ward returned to second.
He Is a valuabl player and Is nut benched,
but Muliager Harnle keeps him out of the
game because it would not be good policy
to change the present make-up of the
team. With Ward released and Bannon
recalled, the club would be badly crippled.

The West Side Interests of The Tribune
havo been placed In the hands of Kmer
ton Owen, to whom all news announce

Councilman P. J. Neulls hua Intro
duced a. resolution In councils waking
that the city ecure an option on the
property at the corner of Price utreet
and Mala avenue, owned by Dr. Allen
and J. Alton Davis, with the Inten
tion of purchasing the same and creat
ing a breathing spot for Wet Klders,
similar to the email, but pretty, purk at
t'urbondale. Some 'time ago It was sug
gested that the triangular plot near
the Ontario and Western freight house
be turned Into n park. The present pro
ject se-ms to be the more desirable
owing to Its central location.
A park on tho Vv'est Mountain would
be durable, but not as a popular
breathing place where a few hours' re
creation could be enjoyed. The Hound
Woods has not been forgotten. But
each year i!h!j place Is becoming less
beautiful than it was the preceeding
one. Every evening card playing for
money Is carried on at that place and
recently a prize light for $75 occurred
between u South Side and a Taylor
youth. Sportsmen have placed three
rabbits a t the Wouds and care U being
taken to keep the animals in existence
with the Intention of. In u few years,
having a ai-uaon'd hunt. Base ball pluy
on Sunduy has been stopped at the
Round Woods gToundd. All in all, a
breathing spot, somewhere, whether on
the Weet mountain, Main avenue, nc-ar
the river, the Round Woods, Tripp's
park, or at Simon Sheon's would be
very much appreciated.

"Buthlng Is a fad." said tho doctor,
glaring upon me a I nt-.-red the coin

The liortoii (Irumm r looked a little

man who does the opposite.
"Then bathing the buby "
"Ought to be made a crime," Inter
rupted the doctor. "Women nver have
a bit of Kense; as w Knees the fact thut
there Is nut more than one physically
sound woman out of ten."
"That Isn't encouraging to a man con
templating matrimony," remarked the
Button man.
"Men contemplating rr.a'i Imony are
fools," promptly put In tlie doctor.
"They never think of the health or
soundness of the woman before mar
riage. It Is never a consideration. And
yet a woman physically disqualified for
wifehood sad motherho.id linked to
HUch a man will bring mu e misery than
pestilence and poverty. And the more
they love each other 'the more miser

"Much hereditary disease, such at

"There U no such thing as hereditary
consumption. It doesn't exist and nev
er did exist. Consumption is an Infec

Anybody else In close relations with a
consumptive Is quite us likely to dl? of
it. It depends upon Hie powns of re

"VoU appear to be a doctor," fa'.J the
Bcitoii man, 'i.alvely.
"I am a doctor. I knew all about phy

can read disease at a glauce. Now, this

"You tre dead wrong there, doctor,"
said 1. The Boston inuci leaned back,
and laughed.
"Well, you've Just gotten over It,"
persisted the doctor.
"No, sir; wrong again." said I, while
the Boston main, laughed a good deal
louder and longer than 'the occasion
seemed to wariant.
The doctor arose, shook himself out
and went away without a word. He
was angry because I was well.
