' Yesterday was Labor Day, bat not a holiday tor National League clubs. Two games in one day is always dreaded by professional ball players and hence yesterday was Labor Day In the strictest sense of the term. The Pennsylvania leaguers. Philadelphia and Pittsburg, were the only ones of the twelve clubs that did not play a couple of games. (Baltimore broke even with St. Louis,' and her rival. Cleve land, was unfortunate enough to lose two games to New York. At Washing ton both games were played in the afternoon, but all other teams played morning and afternoon. The general result is better for the reason that sev eral clubs now have something to strive for. New York has an opportunity to revenge World's fair scores with Chi cago, while Brooklyn and Philadelphia are in a deadly heat for third position. Seranton will long remember Labor Day of '95. One victory and two de feats Is her record In a foreign land. Most of the other clubs managed to win half of their games, with the exception of Rochester, who was walloped by Providence.

CASE OF HOS8 AND IIOSS. Wilkes-Barre Won la the Morning sad Syrnenae In the Afternoon. Syracuse, N. Y.. Sept X.-One a piece was the result of two games at Star park today, the WUkea-atarro nine winning in the morning and the home team coming out ahead In the after noon. The hint contest was witnessed by a small crowd. Costly errors and Inability to hit Keenan after he had taken Coakley's place In the first in ning were the causes of the Syracuse defeat. Over 6.000 people attended the after noon game and the struggle was an In teresting one. Heavy batting on both sides marked the exhibition. The seven runs that the Stars piled up In the sixth Inning gave them a lead that was more of a handicap than the visitors were able to overcome. Sandy Grif fin made three of the WllkesBarre nine runs and seemed, by his playing, to be trying to snow the home team that tney had lost a good man. Scores: First game 8YRACUSR. A.B. K. H. O. A.

Rochesters Put Up n Woak Defense Against the Grays. : Rochester, N. Y.. Sept. 2. The Ro chesters put a feeble defense today against (Providence, and the champions had little trouble In making it two straight. Duryea was hit hard In the morning game and Ms support was wretched. The visitors landed on Har per heavily In the afternoon, and what they failed to get by ..timely hitting was given them, by the local's errors. The Rochesters were stupid on bases. Keenan pitched star ball in the first game, and allowed but five hits, three of them weak scratches. The fielding of Knight, Strieker, Cooney and Keen an were features. Pat Power's new substitute umpire, Hoagland, Judged the first game. 'His work was slack, Rochester getting the worst of It all around. Total attendance, 6,000.

M C A. Team. About 500 persons witnessed a fine exhibition of base bull at she park yes tetrday between the Young iMen'a Christian association team of this city and the Anthracite club of Mooslc. The Young -Men's Christian Association team demonstrated the fact that It can be classed with any semi-professional team in the state. The game was a battle royal between the opposing pitchers and was much closer than is shown by the detatlled score, iDean having a slight advan tage, though not striking out as many batters as did Lucky. Five Anthra cite batters were all that could reach first base and only three of these were able to hit this phenomenal young twiner. The feature of the game was White's stop of a hot grounder In the second inning, after a desperatet dash, and the batting of Owens, this auburn' haired youngstetr making three hits. with a total of four bases. For the Anthracites O'Neil caught a magnifl cent game and was a great help In steadying L.ucky at critical times. The Young Men's Christian associa tion made four runs In the second In ning by clean hard hitting, three In the eighth and two In the ninth on a base on balls to Brooks and two two-bag gers Dy uwena and Ulllern.

Esper, the Baltimore pitcher, has not h't a single batsman or made a wild pitch his whole season. The record McMahon has made since his return to the game for Baltimore has never been equaled. He has pitched nine games, winning them all for Baltimore, and four of them are recorded ss shutouts for -the opposing team. Wilkes-Barre Record. - "Circle." the Pittsburg correspondent of Sporting Life, says of our Aeorge Meekln, recently released by Wilkes Barre: "That man has as much speed as Rusle or Hawley, but he can't pitch In the league, for after a couple of men get on bases he cannot swallow his own saliva." A mall vote of the directors of the Na tional league decides that the game won by the Bostons from Washington on the last visit of the Benators. and which was protested on account of one of Umpire liurnnanvs runngs, snouia De inrown out altogether and will have to be played over. This takes one victory from the Boston club's standing and one defeat from the Benators. Amateur Ball Notes.
