ERRORS DID IT.
Costly Mistake by Smith and Brady Glvo
WIlkes-Barre the .Morning Game-Scran-ton's
Batting and Pitching Was Good
.Enough to Win.
I . .... .A.
wnen piay was caueu ai tu.ia
ever 4,000 persons occupied every seat
on the bleacher and In the grand
stand, and overflowed to the Inside
fences and along the rope near the left
field foul line. Before the contest was
half ended the number pi ' wot closely
approached 3.000.
Seranton lost the game, maybe be
cause Catcher Smith fell from grace
early lnhe morning. Whether or not he
ate pie and a Welsh rarebit for break
fast is not known, but something awful
must have happened to mix ihtm up to
the extent of three errors and a brae?
of passed balls, all of which permitted
three Alligators to wabble across the
plate. Ere this, he has probably been
advised to spelt his name with a "y"
ot take some means to change his luck.
Smith's mistakes migtht be considered
irMih some allowance, but for his trap

last mninir. As Brad? had earlier In

Seranton' Chances Ruined.
WHh these facta ' digested and a

a student of algebra can very easily fig
ure out the reason for it all. A good
formula would be: If Smith and Brady
lost the game twice as rapidly as It was
batted out of Betts, what ghost of a
chance would Seranton finally have to
;wtn?
Luby was In the box for Seranton un
til ttoe end of ith fifth Inning, when the
old split between the fourth and third
fingers of hia left hand was again torn
Ben by a bounder from Griffin's bat.
Luby made a successful assist to
eteaims, retiring the side, but the in
Jury forced him to retire In favor of
Delaney. Each pitched splendidly and
to neither can be Charged the loss of
the game.
Six hlta, one for two basea, were made
off Luby in five Innings. Each crack at
the ball figured In the first four runs,
of which all but one were earned. In
the fifth, Luby'a Oast Inning, two Alli
gators purposely were hit, two others
did the trick on Delaney, which, with
Bmttiivs and Brady's errors, and three
red hits off Delaney created tho
nal slaughter. '
Not for a minute was Twlrler Betts
Ungerous; many a crank after watch
ns; hia work wondered why there had
een such a burning of frankincense
ind tnyrrh In WIlkes-Barre over Betts'
scue from a ceniterfleld coffin. He was
ouehed up ten times for a total of
hlrteen bases, while the nine hits off
uby and Delaney were for only eleven
ases. He struck out three batsman,
ut this was more than offset by the
n he walked to first; only four of
non's hirelings got a walk on the
nton pitching errors.

WILKES-BARRE'S SECOND.
Alligators Bat Out Their Victory in the
Eighth and Tenth-Keenaa 114 tho
Seranton Hitter's at His .Mercy.
Special to the Seranton Tribune.
Wilkes-Barre. July 4. A special train
of ten cars poured a thousand Seranton
fish horn and loud-voiced base ball
rooters Into somnolent WIlkes-Barre
early thla afternoon. They entered
with much noise and with cheats ex
panded to the last degree, and the
band wagon followed after. Three
hours later not a person who sneaked
around the corners of court house
square could tie Induced to reveal his
birthplace unless he happened to hall
from somewhere south of Mooslc. From
the apeparance of many persons it
might have been Inferred that Scran'
ton had been licked. The Inference
would have been correct, woefully cor
root. Seranton had the game won un
til the eighth, when the Alligators bat
ted In a run and tied the score. They
used the nitck In the tenth for three
singles and the winning run.
The game was attended by very near
ly 5.000 people, and it was one of the
greatest contests ever witnessed at
Athletic park. Keerfin held Seranton
down to five hits, including a double
and triple by Eagan, while Meaney was
almost as effective, three hits In the
tenth winning the game.
Keenan'n Great Pltchlne.
Keenan's exhibition of pitching abll
Ity was the strongest ever given here,
but both he and Meaney were mercl
lessly roasted on balls and strikes by
Umpire Snyder. Itunnlng catches by
Bannon and Griffin were the greatest
ever seen on the grounds; the fielding
of Bantron was of a supernatural order,
and Lyttle was magnificent.
Bonner's two singles In the eighth
and tenth Innings, and Smith's hitting
which followed, won the game. This
was the first game Meaney has lost
since his advent in the Eastern league,
A drizzling rain fell throughout the
contest. ,
Huston's error was made in the ninth
when no runs were scored. The error
by Radford was purposely made in or
der to force a double pFay. The double
was not made, .but one runner was re
tired and nothing was lost by the at
tempt.
Score:

BJnghamton. July 4. Tho bicycle
meet today under the auspice of the
Blnghamton Athletic association was
a success. Two thousand people wit
nessed tht races, fourteen In number.
Tho feature of the day was the won
derful riding of Charles T. Miner, of
this city. He surprised his friends and
the wheelmen present by winning first
prize In every race In which he partici
pated. He took all the big prises, ex
cepting the laip races. In which he did

the open events, except the 3-mlle lap
race. In which he won second prise, of
$10. Thrts race was won by W. H. De
Oraw, of Seneca Falls, N. T.
Fooled the Speedy Riders.
Redraw Is not very speedy, not quali
fying In any of the .trial heats, but he
won the race by a very neat tuck.
In this style of a race each man is
scored every half mile according to his
position. The race is always a slow one
as the participants save their wind until
the home stretch of every half is
reached, when they put all their energy
Into a powerful spurt for position at the
scratch.
Dlffenderfer, of this city, got first
position on the first lap; Bartoon, also
of Blnghamton secoond; Corsor, of
Seranton, third. At the quarter mile
of the second lap, DeGraw, who was
last In every spurt and always last In
the bunch, started to ride for dear life,
passing the other riders; and before
they had realized what had happened,
DeGraw was nearly a quarter of a mile
ahead of the rest, riding for keeps.
His lead was so great that he needed
no spurt at all, but scored first In the
other five laps by steady riding. Corser
lead the bunch and scored each of the
other laps with ease.
Corner's Splendid Spurts.
Corner's spurts In ithls race were
magnificent, but he should have used
them earlier In the day.
The -following members of the Seran
ton Bicycle club and the Green Ridge
wheelmen rooted for Corser with all
their might. Seranton club: Barney
Connolly, Hhrry Newman, George
Sharps, L. T. Snyder, Ernest Gllmore,

CORNELL'S CONDITION.
Coach Coartney I Aaxloa Over the
Craw' Lose of Appetite.
Henley on Thames, July 4. The
change In weather has affected Ave of
the regular Cornell crow. The men
complain of languor and have fallen
off In their food. They feel an abnor
mal tendency to sleep. The result has
been seen In their practice, which has
been fifteen seconds slower over half
the course than previously. The repre
sentative of the United Press today In
terviewed Charles K. Courtney, the
coach of the crew. He said: "I feel
pretty bad about It. but I do not let the
boys see It. I am doing everything I
can to encourage them and to revive
their nplrita. I did not know that any
thing was amiss until Tuesday. I then
saw that some of the boys were not eat
ing as they ought. On the same day I
noticed a falling off In the time they
had been making. The affected men
told me how languid they felt. We
were not prepared for the sudden
changes in English weather. Our four
spare men are not affected in any way.
It Is quite possible that I will put two
of them In the boat, removing two of
the boys wlio have gone off. The mis
fortune Is not due to overwork. The
boys have not done as much work here
as they did at home, and not nearly as
much as Is done by the English crews.
I have tried a change of diet and have
eased the work. If they do not show
any improvement, I shall stop their
work entirely and not let them row
again until the race comes off."
C. S. Frances, the manager of the
crew, is more hopeful. He said that
their Indisposition was slight, and they
would be all right before the day of the
race.
