'
For five Innings yesterday the Toron-
toa hit the ball at will and cavorted
around the bases In regular derby day
fashion and piled up a sufficient num
ber of runs to win easily, although in
the sixth, seventh and eighth Innings
they failed to get a hit and were re
tired one-two-three.
. Bound .Thomas Johnson, who in the
early game pitched as though he was
rulterlnfr from a stomach full of tacks,
was responsible for only one of Toron
to's five runs in the first two innings,
but Je quit In hollow fashion in the
third, fourth and fifth and was pound
ed often and .hard.
Huston Was Chief Offender.
Jack Huston was the chief offender.
In the second inning, with two out and
two on bases, he made a lovely muff
of an easy fly and permitted a run. A
hit and Sweeney's poor throw to the
plate let In two more runners before
the side was retired. . In the first, with
one out and Freeman on second, Huston
fielded the ball high above Stearns'
head, following Jud Smith's hit.

threw It to Schrlver, who, in trying to
tpuch Freeman out. dropped the ball.

From the fifth to the last Inning John
son recovered control of the ball and
tiot a runner got to first: two singles
were made off him in the ninth, but
no runs were scored.

permitted only a single and a double to
Schrlver In the first four innings. Ward
irgled in the fifth and came home on

chance to score In the sixth by laying
off second and being doubled from Lu
tenburg to Demont after iDemont had
stopped Sweeney's liner and thrown

DIAMOND DUST.
Toronto again today.
Would we rather have Wilkes-Barre win
or Buffalo lose? 4s at present a very tender
question.
Jack Huston so seldom haa an off day
that he will be forgiven for yesterday's
mistakes.
Scranton has won ten of Its last four
teen games and has taken aeven out of
ten games from Toronto.
Smith's triple was a hummer, and
Schrlver hit his two-bagger out after a
fashion dear to the heart of the faithful,
Toronto will try a new pitcher today.
His name Is Brennemer and he Is from
Brooklyn. Should he fall to arrive, Gray
will pitch.
Biill Schrlver, formerly of the New
Yorks, has signed with Scranton. He
would have been a good man for Syracuse.
-Syracuse Post.
Beginning today the bleachers and
grand stand will be policed by regulars.
The management has decided to put a
stop to hoodlumism. ,
Until Scranton audiences become more
orderly, more loyal and less profane this
cUy will have no license to criticise '.he
deportment of the Wilkes-Barre article.
A long suffering public would cheerfully
subscribe toward a padlock . for Jack
Neat's lips. If he would learn something
new and commit it to memory he might be
endured-r-but he has become tiresome,
very tiresome.
Buffalo begins a three days' engagement
here tomorrow, and then after three days
at home with Wllkes-Barre the club goes
away on Its last trip of the season, re
turning Sept. 10 for three games each with
Springfield and Providence.
The blasphemer Is probably the most ob
noxious object outside prison walls, and
there Is a varied and sickening lot of them
who pay 25 cents for the privilege of ex
ercising their porcine characteristics at
the Scranton base ball park. '
Wllkes-Barre, which Is just ahead of
Buffalo, Is playing winning ball, as is
Scranton, which is on the round below.
Between these millstones the Bisons will
soon be crushed to a "quivering mass of
human Jelly," as the lurid word painter
of the police court might, say. Buffalo
Times.
The jeers of the crowd so disgusted Luby
Wednesday that he retired from the box
after the fifth Inning and told Manager
Jiarnle he would not pitch again for Scran
ton. Considering the provocation, Luby
could not be blamed for his action. Last
night, however, his anger had left him
and he will twirl today's game against
Toronto.
The cranks will be glad to see Corbett
try to play base ball on the Scranton club
against Buffalo next Monday, but there
Is no desire to see the game sacrificed for
the sake of extra dollars. This condition
has led to an arrangement whereby Scran
ton's chances will not - be jeopardised.
Corbett will play In right field and Meaney
will pitch.
Bays the Washington Post: "Frank
Bonner drew salary from the Baltimores
a long while on suspicion that he was a
ball player and would prove a valuable
man In event of Injury to one of the regu
lars on that team. After he was traded to
the Browns It was soon seen that he was
not fast enough for the league. Then he
was sold to Wllkes-Barre amd found too
weak for that organisation."'

JOE PATCHEN WINS.
Defeated Robert J. Three Oat of Four
Heats in 11.04 2. OHM. 3.05M, and
2.05W.
Buffalo, N. Y. Aug. 8. For the third
time this year Joe Patchen defeated
Robert J. Today the game son of
Patchen, Wilkes, convincingly demon
strated his superiority over the little
knee-sprung pacer, and as a result of
the struggle Hamlin's champion will be
retired from the track until he regains
his old form.
It was truly a battle royal, but one
In which Jack Curry had all the best
of the argument. In the two fastest
heats he sat In the sulky as Immovable
as a statute when the horses were fight
ing It out in the home stretch, while
Geers worked like a demon and lashed
Robert J with the whip time and time
again. The track, was In the finest
possible condition and only a moderate
wind was blowing against the horses
at the home stretch.
Village farm money made Robert J a
favorite at odds of 3 to S before the first
heat, while Patchen sold at 4 to 6. In
the toss for the pole Patchen won.
On the second Bcore the two went
away neck and neck. Like a double
team they paced to the three-quarters,
when Geers pulled out. But Curry
called upon Patchen, and the great
stallion responded promptly. In the
home stretch they came with Patchen
a half length ahead. Geers took to the
whip, but It was of no avail, as Patchen
was going well within his speed. Time,
2.04.
The second heat was simply a repetl
tlon of the first, but In the third heat
Patchen fell back at the three-quarter
pole. 'Robert gained a lead of two
lengths going around the last turn, but
Patchen came up on the outside and
finished in a dead heat, though the
Judges gave the heat to Robert.
In the fourth both horses broke at the
first furlong pole. Patchen recovered
first and took a good lead down the
back stretch. iRubert came on even
terms at the lower distance stand, but
fell buck and broke Into a run, at which
gait he finished the mile all out.
Athance won the deciding heat In the
unfinished 2.16 trot arid Falkland finally
did the same In the 2.23 class. Fred
Kohl won the 3-year-old, and Rachel the
2.29 trot. All the races save the 3-year-
old trot were sharply contested. At
tendance, 10,000.
DEAD BABE AT HER BREAST.
Child Dies In a Street Car on the Way to
- the Dispensary.
New York, Aug. 8. Mrs. Annie See
ley's cup of sorrow was overflowing
last night. Her 5-month-old baby
Frank, born after her husband went
down on the Ill-fated North American
Lloyd steamer Elbe, died at noon Mon
day in her arms on a Second avenue-
car. She was carrying him to the hos
pital for treatment. .
She did not discover that she had
traveled two miles with her dead Infant
on her breast until the doctor went to
limine the child. The body was taken
to the morgue, the mother being too
poor to bury it.
ASSAULTED AT MIDNIGHT.
Itansss Man Lnred from Hie Homo by
Three Masked Men.
Sallna, Kan., Aug. 8. J3. F. Caswell, a
farmer living sixteen miles northwest
of here, was lured from his home .it
midnlirht, assaulted by three masked
armed men, shot In the head and bru
tally beaten and choked. The ruffians
forced him to accompany them a mile,
when they suddenly became frightened
and let him go after -threatening his
life If he told of the outrage.
He managed to crawl home and gave
the alarm. The affair Is thought to be
the outgrowth of a neighborhood feud.
