POOR WILKES'BARRE.
Seranton Wins the First of the Series in
-Very Ragged but Exciting; Contest.
There Were Errors and Hits Galore.
Special to the Seranton Tribune.
Wllke-Barre. Pa.. July 1. Seranton
and Wilkes-Barre played a see-saw
Sonne today, which was one of the most
interesting; contests of the reason, even
though ragged fielding- predominated.
Wllkes-Karre tried Wynne, a college
pitcher from New York, who made a
rood impression, but he was scored un
mercifully on balls and strikes by Sny
der In the first part of the game, and
this with ragged support lost the game.
EWaney pitched for Seranton and was
Unusually wild. He hit Betts a terriflo
crack on the elbow of his pitching arm.
disabling1 him so that he could aiot
pitch the game for which he was re
served. Dtgg!ns was Injured in the
iteventa in running base and retired.
'.Jteaney finished the game for Seranton
uter the fifth Inr.Ir.g. but The fact that
lut won out was du to errors of th
home :am.
With the assistance of Umpire Sny
der, who gave Wynne the grand throw
down on ball and strikes, five Scran-ton-
runners crossed the plate in the
Vlid Inning. Another run in the
t'lV1 maJe 'tn cre 7 to 2 in Seran
t rs favor. It looked like a sinecure.
tl Dtflacey went to pieces In t.ie
JOMh aud was batted in a terrific
manner; several costly errors -were
toaoe, and Wilkes-Barre rolled up six
rur and led toy one tally.
The Scra&ton batsmen got !their eyes
on the leather in the. fifth and made a
lea,d of three runs and were never head
ed,although in the eighth Wilkes-Earre
came within one of tying the score.
Fr Seranton Stearns, Eagan and
Ward excelled in r;!ck work, and Hua
tjri put up a good gime in Che field.

Springfield-Providence.
Springfield. Mass., July 1. The
Sprinstlelds put up a spivttless game
against the Champions today and al
lowed them to win with the greatest
ease. Sprinslleld's fielding was very
ragged, white Providence played sharp
ly and accurately. Springfield could
get but live hits off Rudderham. who
pitched a fine game, while Callahan, af
ter being hit hard enough in the first
two innings to lose the game, was re
tired in favor of Cwughlin, who did bet
ter. But the game was lost already,
and Sprlnsrtleld could not find enough
hits to win 1c. Cooney and Bassett
made brilliant cops. Leahy a fine catch
of a fly and Donnelly and Gilbert good
catches of foul-:. The feature tt the
day was Knighfs batting. Out of four

BASE BALL IN THE WEST.
English Language Taxed to Inscribe the
Quincy-Oma1 a Game.
The possibilities of the English lan
guage have frequently been tuxed to
describe the great American game vt
base ball, but fur striking Illustration
this from the Herald of uuincy, III., has
rarely been equated:
"The gluMS-ariued toy soldier of this
town were fed to the pigs yesterday
by the cadaverous Indian grave-robbera
from Omaha. The flabby, one-lunged
Keubens who represent the tlem City
In the reckless rush (or the base ball
pennant hud their shins toasted by ihe
basilisk-eyed cattle drivers from the
west. They stood around with gaping
eyeballs like a hen on a hot null, and
suffered the grlzxly ynpa of Omaha to
run the bases until their necks were
long; with thirst. Hlckey had more er
rors than Coin's Financial school, and
led the rheumatic procession to the
morgue. The Qulncya were full of straw
and scrap Iron. They couldn't hit a
brick wagon with a pickaxe and ran
bases like pall-bearers at a funeral. If
three-base hits were growing on the
back of every man's neck they couldn't
reach 'em with a feather duster. It
looked us It the Amalgamated Union
of South American lloodoos was In ses
sion for work In the thirty-third degree.
The geezers stood about and whistled
for help, and were so weak they
couldn't lift a gluss of beer If It had
been all foam. Everything was yel
low, rocky and whaugbasted. like a
stlgtossel full of dogglegammon. The
game was whiskered and frostbitten.
The Omahogs -were bad enough, but
the Qulncy Brown Sox had their fins
sewed up until they couldn't hold n
crazy quilt unless It was tied around
their necks."
DIAMOND DUST.
Seranton at Wllkes-Barre today.
A victory today will moke the peroentago
.3u.
Baltimore leads the league in both bal
ing and fielding.

be today's battery.
Bcranton has won eleven of the last four
teen consecutive games.
"Pete" Chllds continues to keep up his
good work forHuzleton.

Catcher Tenny and Pitcher Sexton are
doing good work for Boston.

ers, has been sold to Cleveland.

run than other club in the league.

He quit last season on account of bad
health.
Wllks-Barre Record: "Seranton Is play
ing about the best ball of any club In the
league."
Washington and Brooklyn have five or
six pitchers each, and they are all doing
good work.
Warner, who played shortstop for Ro
chester when that club was In Seranton,
la catching for Louisville.
If Providence wins three games and
Springfield loees the same number the two
clubs wtll be tied for first position.
The western clubs, with the exception of
St. IxjuIs and Itulsvllle, are playing a'
much stronger game than they did last
year.
Wilson, of New York, Is not doing much
hlttlnic for the "Giants" and It Is likely
that Farrell will do most of the catching
from now on.
Captain Doyle, of the "Giants," will try
to play this week. He will play third base
until Davis Is well enough to take his place
on the team again.
The Eastern league magnates appear to

last Joined Pottsvllle. "Con" Is one of the
most popular players In the State league.
Pitcher Kimble, of MIMvllle, has not lost
a game thin season. He Is a strapping big
fellow, and with a little more experience
will be a good man for some club to gather
ID.
Carbondale, says the Philadelphia In
quirer, has b?en a disappointment, a
great many people thought that they
would have an easy time of It In the State
league. ,-
Pitcher Mark Baldwin and S'cond Base

vllle and Are pluying with Rochester.
Nick Young Iihs lieen notified, but both
men are still playing.
Pitcher Frank Southard, late of Toronto,
has signed with the Reading club. He Is a

when the result was received the gather
ing showed II pleasure by a series of
lusty cheer.
Yesterday's gatrw at Wllkes-Barre was
witnessed by a large) number of Seranton

"You are now eng-aged in a work
Which can be called the Lord's ibue-l-ness.
Everyone Is a partner In this
firm. The work Is to be about, lift up
the fallen, care for the sick, save souls
and other results of taking On Mie ar

the everlasting law of flod. As the

doesn't enable you to stop tobacco
only to tind yoursslf a slave to the
habit of tablet chewing.
