Scran ton defeated Providence In a
free-hitting- game in which Soranton'
lugging ftaa more conspicuous than
Johnson's good pitching. Betts
twirled a food game, to which Is due
the victory of Wilkes-Barre over
Fprlngfleld. The Burtalo-Kochester
game was a burlesque on the national
pastime, Rochester being forced to put
a fielder and catcher In the box In ad
dition to a regular pitcher. Syracuse

Fares Game at Rochester.
, (Buffalo, Aug. 21. The Bisons had on
(heir batting, clothes today and ham
mered three Rochester pitchers out of
the box. Garry, the center fielder,
who earlier In the season played In
turn with Springfield, - Hornellsvllle
and Syracuse, was first put In the bos.
In the first inning nine singles, a home
run, a wild throw to first by Garry a'nd
muff at second netted nine runs.
Five more were batted out in the sec
ond and third, and then he' resigned to
Oldfleld. After two Innings the latter
quit and Betver came In from right
field and went Into the box. After the
third the Buffalo did not try to hit
the ball and In the fifth, sixth and
seventh,, locals were purposely caught
off bases so as .to shorten the game.

DIAMOND DUST.
It was Buffalo's good luck to have the
game given away by Rochester.
Tommy Bannon was practicing In a New
York uniform at the Polo grounds on Tues
day. Joe Corbett, who Is to be given a trial
by the Washington management, 1s ex
pected to report the latter part of this
week.
Manager Jack Doyle, of the New York,
has already been fined more than 1300
by umpires this season. He would no
doubt have kept better control of his
tongue and temper if he was compelled to
pay fines from his own pocket.
Charles Brute-Smith must have an elas
tic conscience thepe days If he does not
regret his dirty tripping of Eagam, who
has been Incapable of playing owing to
the Injury he received. It was a nasty
fall, and the wonder is that Kagan's neck
was not broken Instead of having his
stomach strained.
Rusle Is not acting In good faith with
th New York club. He receives the largest
salary of any ball player in the league,
and should give the club some return for
the money. He has done some fine pitch
ing, but that will be forgotten when the
club officials take into consideration sev
eral brawls In which the big pitcher has
taken parr. New York Sun.
The announcement Is made that Meaney
has permission to pitch for Hornellsvllle
today and will Join the club In Providence
tomorrow. This means that flcranlon has
a new pitcher, or that "Meaney will pitch
two games lm as many daya running, or
that Johnson will be put In out of his
regular turn. In any event the arrange
ment seems foolish Just now when Mea
ney is Scranton's mainstay and anchor.
The report comes from Carbondale that
Luby will ipltch for that club today not
withstanding the refusal of the Soranton
club to remove Luby's suspension. Man
ager Swift says thsit President Young neg
lected to prevent Hess from playing with
New Orleans after he had Jumped Car
bondale, and that argues that this cir
cumstance gives the Carbondale club the
right to pitch Luby In the face of the
suspension hangine; over. him. Some
body '.n bound to get into trouble and
Luby fhould not be mlsgUVled into making
himself a tool for a test case.
The refusal of the New York manage
ment to admit Sam Crane, base ball re
porter of the Commercial Advertiser, to
the Polo grounds recalls a similar case
on record, that of Tracey Bronson, the
turf writer, who was denied admission
to the Monmouth Park Racing Associa
tion track because his writings did not
please the friends of that organisation.
Mr. Branson tested the matter tn the
courts snd a decision was rendered In his
favor. The court held that no associa
tion had tbe right to exclude reporters
from the grounds for any criticisms writ
ten by them.

SAM CRANE'S CASE.
President Freedmsn of the New Yorks
1 Loading Himself With Trouble, .
The expulsion of 8am Crane, the
well-known fosse ball writer of the
Morning! Advertiser, from the Rolo
grounds last Saturday v President
Freedman, has caused considerable ex
citement In base ball circles In New
-York and Brooklyn, says a 'New York
special to the Washington Post. Mr.
Freedman (Ives as his reasons for barring-
Mr. Crane from the grounds that
1he, Jailer was too severe In his criti
cisms of the work of the Giants. Ram
Crane Is known throughout ths coun
try as a fair and Impartial newspaper
man. Everybody Is in sympathy with
blm. as his-articles wert to the oolnt.
and all agree that he hit the nail on the
ntaa wnen ns saia na uiants werai
mismanaged aggregation. It now looks
as If President Freedman made the
greatest mistake of his life. After Su
perintendent Arthur" 'Bell, who was
acting under telegraphic Instructions
from the president of the 'Now York
club. who la In Nova Scotia, at present,
took Mr. Crane's book away from him.
Crane purchased 'a ticket and (was
again refused admission. The ticket
seller wanted to refund Crane his
money, but he would not have It. and
held the ticket, which Is now in hta
possession. The Advertiser people will
apply tomorrow for a writ asking the
New York club to show cause why Its
representative 4s not admitted to the
Polo grounds. After this apart of the
case Is aettled. Crane will begin pro
ceedings against Air. Free dsn an and
the Now York club for violation of con
tract, for after accepting; his money
they refused him entrance to the
grounds. John tM. "Ward ks Crane's
lawyer.
DEFENDER DISABLED.
Reason for Her Failure to l-ialsb In ths
First Trial Kaee.
Vlgllant's victory over Defender In
Tuesday's trial race was made pos
sible only because Defender's shrouds
slackened, although this accident
was not 'meitttonexl In Tues
day night's press dispatches. It now
developes that Vigilant never was In
it, although she iwas awarded the race.
She was very teinler In the heavy wind
and sea, (and ws beaten by 6 minutes
and 33 seconds In the beat of ten miles.
It was a splendid contest and even
though Defender's shrouds became
loose there Is no doubt of the new keel's
ability to wallop the centreboard In
roUKh weather. The yacht will meet
again next Tuesday and Wednesday.
Defender hue, gone to Bristol for re
pairs. Drummers Will Play Ball.
The Commercial Travelers of Blnnham
ton and Scranton are to contest for su
premacy in the base ball arena at Scran
ton Base Ball park on Saturday. The two
clubs played In Bingham ton two weeks
ago. The Scranton drummers were the
winners.

The roses and the violets In beauty are

Within the little garden where the scarlet

The sunflower and the marigold are light

The hollyhock 4s idling there a very
tramp of bloom.
While tulips life their beakers up and

The dear- old home" forever, where the

GREAT MES TO CHILDREN-
Carlyie once asked an Edinburgh stu
dent what he was studying for. T4te
youth reviled that he had not. quite
made tip bis mind. There was a sud
den Hash of she old Scotch man's eye, a
sudden pulling down of the shaggy eye
brow and the stern face grew sterner
as he sakt "The man without a pur
pose Is like ship wtthoout a rudder a
waif, a nothing, a no man. Have a
purpose In life If It Is only to kill, divide
and sell oxen well; but have a purpose,
and having It throw suoh strength of
mind and muscle Into your work as God
has given you."
WIHIara D. Howella -wrote a letter to
the school children of Jefferson, Ohio,
bis native village. In tt he said: "A
rood many wise critics wM tell you
that writing- Is Inventing-, but I know
better than that. It Is only retnember
Intf. By and by you, will all be authors,
or rather you will realize that you have
been authors aa you set down for the
printed patre.or your own fireside circle,
the history of your life. I hope that
history win be for each of you a true
and sweet and Rood one, without harm
for any living soul In It, and with help
for all whu come to know tt. Reflect
that you ore making- your book now In
words and deeds. Ue true In order
that you 'may get the truth from other
men's books, and be not hurt by what la
evil and false In Hhem. Literature la
life, and a clean conscience Is the best
criticism."
Charles Lamb was the wittiest and
the merriest of men, and nothing sur
vives of him that Is not right and
sparkling.
"And pray, Mr.Lamb, how do you like
children?" asked a good, Doolish. body
who had wearied everybody (with sing
ing the previses oTbabres;
"B-h-bolled, ma'am." stuttered Lamb.
And the lady was duly astonished and
shocked.
''My lads," raid Napoleon, "you must
not fear death. When soldiers brave
doafh they drive him Into the ranks of
the enemy." And, again, he said to his
physician: "Belfeve me. we had better
leave off all these remedies. Life la a
fortress which neither you nor I know
anything about. Why throw obstacles
In the way of Its defense? It own
means are superior to at the apparatus
of your laboratories. Medicine is a col
lection of uncertain prescriptions, the
results of which, taken collectively, are
more fatal than useful to mankind.
Water, air and cleanliness are the chief
articles In my pharmacopoeia."
"Thus, if you are a 8eho'lr,,, writes
Emerson, "be that. The same law holds
for you as for the laborer. The shoe
maker makea a good shoe because he
makes nothing else. Let the student
mind his own charge. No way has
ever been found 'for making heroism
easy, even for the scholar. Labor, iron
labor. Is for him. Read the perform
ances of Bent ley. of Cuvler, St. Htlaire,
Laplace. 'He can toll terribly,' said
Cecil of Sir Walter Rallegh. These few
words stlna; end lash us when we are
frivolous. Let us get out of the way of
their blows by muklng- ithem true of
ourselves.- There is so much to be
done that we ought to begin quickly to
bestir ourselves. Nature, when she
adds difficulty, adds brains."
What Papa Said.
Trembling- with excitement loulse
stood in the parlor and waited for her
lover. It seemed an age since he had
gone to see her father In his office. The
young man was so Impulsive, so eas
ily betrayed Into a hasty action, anl
papa was so grave and stern. A t length
the door opened and Louise's sweet
heart stood before her. He was un
harmed. Ills cheeks e;kwed;a strange
expression gleamed In his eyes.
"Han you spoken to papa?" she
asked in quivering tones.
"Yes, my dearest." -
"And what did he say, Hans? Quick!
tell me what he said. He said no' to
thee; oh, I see W written In thine eyes.
But I will be tjhine! I am thlnel Hds
cruel harshness has no terror for me.
I I will fly with thee."
He gated down Into her face In a
sort of dreamy way.
"Now, spea'ii, do!" she Impatiently
exclaimed. "I brook no delay. Was his
manner repelhtnt. Insulting- toward
you? What did he do? What did he
say?"
Hans Muller took a deep breath, and
then softly replied:
"He only said "Thank goodness,' and
went on with his writing." Stattsan

Bingo "Didn't you have some trou
ble 1n building your house??"
Klngley "Oh, a little. The architect
made a slight mistake In the estimate
and It cost me $4000 more than I counted
on."
Bingo "Was that all?'!
Klngley "All? No, sir. The car
penters forgot that there was such a
thins; as specifications and left out a
hall; but, of course, one shouldn't mind
a little thing like Ohat."
Bingo "Certainly not."
Klnkley "Then the pipes were put
In wrong and had to be replaced."
Bingo "That usually happens."
Klngley "Oh, yes. Then I neglected
my business for three months trying to
find the architect, and that cost me a
pretty penny."
Bingo "But you expected ttfat?"
Klngley "Certainly. After the place
was finished I found my old furniture
wouldn't do and I had to get a new out
fit. Then my ce&lar flooded, the roof
leaked and 'the placfca warped; but
these thing aren't anything to the
trouble I'm In now."
Bingo "What's the matter now?"

A WONDERFUL REVIVAL.
Rsmarksble Results of ths Tent Meetings
at ths Arsbbsld.
The Archbald mine of the Delawere,
Lackawanna and Western company is
located in the midst of beautiful terri
tory on the back-road, about a mile
south from Hyde Park. It is now but
one week since Evangelist George D.
Moore and Rev. L. Schelhorn pitched
nhelr tent at this beautiful but neglected
spot, and began holding gospel meet
ings. At first their little tent was more than
large enough to seat all who came; but
the interest grew with astonishing
rapld.My, and by Sunday the tent was
crowded. Sunday evening the break
had come and people came to the altar
In large numbers. The best part of It
was that they accepted the Invitation
to come without any special coaxing.
They have continued to come until In
the last four days they number one
hundred persons, varying in age from
10 to 75 years; and still the work goes
on.
It Is truly a wonderful work in an
odd corner. 1
