roasting Umpire 'ScyUer, &1th1 Ward
was fined 110 for back talk.
The first game was the more excit
ing of the two. Both Coughlin and
Johnson pitched fine games and were
well . supported. Scranton did not
core After the first Inning, but la the
ninth an error by Shannon and a base
on balls gave the visitors a chance,
which, however, wa not accepted.
Springfield made her runs by bunching
hits. erry made the star play of the

hurply as the first. Springfield did

CORSEB SECOND.
Seranton Rider at Asbnry Gets a Place in
ths Third Preliminary Heat of the Two
Mils Handicap-Professionals Paced by
Zlratny and Wheeler on n Tandem.
Asbury Park, N. J., July 11. The rain
which fell this morning upon the trial
heats of the first day's racing of the
League of American "Wheelmen's na
tional meet ceased before the after
noon's work began, although lowering
clouds lingered and damp breezes
threatened dunlng 'the entire day. The
weaither, however, had little diminish
ing effect upon the crowd which com
pletely filled the grandstand and went
a long way out on the big new bleach
ers. Before the racing began Referee
Mott attempted to stop practice on the
stack and shook a bamboo walking
Btick ominously at A. D. Kennedy, the
Chicago flyer. Kennedy made an un
complimentary remark and was or
dered off the path.
The racing was all of a high order and
unexpectedly free from accidents con
sidering the dangerous banking on the
turns. The novice race was not extra
ordinary. McKay, of Denver, looked a
winner unibil the last shoot, when C.
Dlrnberger, of Buffalo, came away and
won out easily with McKay second.
Corser Placed in n Preliminary.
Walter Douglas, the champion swim
mer of America, who is becoming a
class A crack, took the two-mile handi
cap In masterly style, running well all
the way. In the third heat of tho pre
liminaries of this race, J. B. Corser, of
Scranton, was second. The heat was
won by A. W. Abel, of Arlington, N. J.
Little Tom Butler, of Boston, should
have had the haif-mlle class an open,
but after winning his heat, was oblliged
to start a8 once in the final without rest
or rub down, and ran second to Ertx,
of New York, In a driving flntoh wtoh
Douglas, Ert squeezing between the
others at the very tape.
The class A tandem events were
pretty but rather tame; Caildwell, of
Winchester, and Tom Butler having
an easy thing in heat and final.
Paced by a Tandem.
The main Interest today, however,
lay In the single professional event.
Zimmerman and Wlheeler, paced on. a
tandem, which Fred St. Onige caught,
with Berlo, Starbuck, Eaton, Bartholo
mew, Cutter and McCurdy tagging on
In order. The race was too hot, how
ever, and St. Onge soon lost the tan
dem and fell at the tlhree-quarters.
Berlo did the rest alone, Starbuck and
Bartholomew In the places.
However deserving of attention the
professional event may lhave been as
a novelty and curio, the best racing
and liveliest performances were seen
In the class B conteit. Oabanne, hav
ing been laid up in a heat of the morn
ing Bald, MacDonaid, Titus and Gardi
ner wore left to fight 1t out In three
races a half-mile, a mile open and the
two-mile national championship. In
the latter, of course, class A men were
permitted to compete, and two quali
fied, but were lost In the shuffle when
the sprinting commenced.
Tltns snd MaoDortstd Hide Head HsUt.
The first heat was a ibesuty. Mac
Donald, Titus, Scott and Earl started.
Earl made the gait for the first half
when MacDonaid went up taking Titus
with him. These glsnts hung to each
other until the quarter pole, at which
post Titus, who seemed to feel that he
must do something pretty soon, ran out
and gained twenty yards before Mad
Donald saw him. Then came a memor
able rush down the stretch, MacDonaid
gaining at every Inch, and Titus forg
ing along like a Kansas cyclone. The
men almost touched elbows as they
flashed over the tape at the same In
s:ant, Monte flcott beating Earl easily
for third place. The Judges announced
It a dead heat. . . . .
The other heats were less exciting
and caused a good deal of uneasiness
owing to the large fields of starters
although big WlHIe Terrell was the
only "h"; man to cleave the earth.
Little Klser and Gardiner made a game
fight for the tandem at the push off,
and to every one's surprise Klser got It.
The first mile was handsomely paced,
and the men stuck to their work nicely.
The Johnsons picked up the crowd
prettily for the last scramble and all
went well till the tandem ran away
and Klser lost his grip. Butler, Gard
iner and Coulter had it hot on the run
home, coming In side by side. At a
yard from the mark Butler Jumped
ahead and the others came over with
wheels lapping.
' Bald Won by an Inoh.
In the mile open-Bald, ths Columbia
ofaok, sustained his reputation tor this
sort of thing, although he had -his
hand's full In doing so, for Titus
showed his old form and came within
an Inch or two of the rlss. Gardiner,
Madden, Allen and Church were the
rest of the bunch who followed Mayo
and Saunders on their tandem. Bald
and, Gardiner chased for the pacing
machine at the start and Uhe latter
caught It, but Bald went ahead of the
tandem, getting the pole, and when the
procession passed he evened up with
Gardiner, and after a lively tussle cap
tured the coveted place. Titus played
his cards well all the way, being ready
when the tandem dropped out on the
back stretch and Bald started his
cprlnt, to leap beside tilm. They ran
neck and neck to the end, Bald win
ning only by an. Inch or two, In 2.07 8-6.
It was a great day's sport, but better
Is promised for tomorrow nd Satur
day. This evening t'he annual bar
carnival Is being held on Wesley lake,
eclipsing all former . water pageants.
Many pyrotechnic and aquatic novel
ties were Introduced.

CORNELL'S (0NDITI0N.
Another Crew May Ho Sent to Henley
Next Year Yelo Presents ths Cold
Shoulder.
Henley, July 11, On the third and
last day of the Henley regatta, the
river was alive with craft of all de
scriptions, and tho police boats had all
they could do to keep the course clear
of obstructions. A wealth of color was
lent to the scene by the profusion of
flags and flowers with which the
launches, house-boats, boat-houses,
etc., were dressed, and the varied cos
tumes of the thousands of ladles. The
attendance of Americans was much
smaller than on the previous days, and
the few Cornell men to be seen were
far from being obtrusive.
The event of the day, which was de
voted to final heats In the various con
tests, was the final for the grand chal
lenge cup, which was won by the Trin
ity Hall (Cambridge) eight, the crew
that mad monkeys of the Cornells yes
terday. The Cornell crew wrote an open let
ter to the press defending their action
In rowing over the course in the heat
with the Leander crew and stated that
as, under the rules, the umpire has
sole authority and he gave the word to
"go" and did not recall them, they they
continued to the end.
The Cornell men held a meeting last
evening, and resolved subject to
(he approval of the university
at Ithaca to send two crews
to Henley In 1896. The necessary
funds were arranged for. A number
of the trustees, professors and other
supporters of the university were pres
ent and the utmost enthusiasm pre
vailed. Now Haven, Conn., July 11. Several
Yale athletic advisers here assert that
after the erratic performance of ithe
Cornell crew in England, no Yale, Cor
nell race will be arranged this year as
would 'probably have been the case
had the Cornell men won a heat at Hen
ley. In this city the exhibition given
by Cornell Is regarded as most unfor
tunate. SWARTZ DEFEATS MEYERS.

Swartz, the Scranton wing shot, today

Tobacco.
The greatest discovery of the age!
A certain, pleauaut, permanent

A lifetime's snfTerlng ended for

Remember NAnco'ri-CcrtE does
not deprive you of tobacco while

to a guarantee; doesn't require a
month's treatment; and, finally,
doesn't enable you to stop tobacco
only to find yourself a slave to the
habit of tablet chewing.
