With any kind of luck the Orioles will

yesterday, which makes four contests

Is that Tnrrtntn n-Ki h.i an tnn n.
copied the unenviable position of tull
enilers, now has an opportunity to
displace Rochester, and occupy seventh
herself. With the exception of the last

DIAMOND DUST.
Johnson's wrencheil leg Is still bothering
him and It may be that ha will not go In
the box this season again.
Hastings, the Kansas City pitcher, has
been signed by Ptttslmrg. He will Join
the club on Sept. 24. sifter the close of Hie
Western league season,
McMahon, of Baltimore, takes great care
of his arm. Every time he comes in from
the field he puts on an extra sleeve, pro
tecting the elbow from cold.
If arrangements can be made at Spring
flelil the closing i;amt.'S of the season with
SprlngileKl ami Providence, whloh were to
be played here, will be transferred to
Springfield and Providence.
Brodie, the new pitcher signed by Mana
ger Barnin, was secured In Wheeling, O.,
and is thought to be a comer. He did
fairly good work in the two games he
pitched at Toronto Tilondny.
A very lively correspondence Is In prog
ress between President Powers, of the
Kastern league, and President Young, of
the National league, ovr the case of
Loby, who was suspended by the manage
ment of thu Scranton club, and afterward
signed by Cartiondale.
President Young Is on the right tack at
last in his umpire poMcy. His reappoint
ment of Hurst hist week was applauded
all along the circuit, Mr. Young moved
slowly in this Important matter, but he 4s
to be congratulated for landing In the
right way at last. New York Herald.
Fred Pfeffer says he has signed a New
York contract for 1896, and will cover
second base for the Giants next year.
What. In aplte of the fsrt that Pfeffpr has
been called a dlsorga nlsser and that the
New York management has been all but
forbidden by the Herald to engage Fred
for the club?
The Scranton games, scheduled for the
closing days of the season, will be trans
ferred to this city, so that the Orays will
llnlsh the game at home. Providence
Journal. Another n'.d to the Grays toward
the pennant. Barnie wanted to transfer
the Springfield series to this city, hut the
bike tournament made it Impossible.
Springfield Union,.
"Connie" Mack told the Baltimore Sun
mnn 'that he has not much hope that his
club will be ablo 4o regain second place.
He accounts for the poor ploying by the
fact "that his two best shortstops. Cross
and Stuart, are laid up. Cllngmnn and
Binrbaucr am also ploying with Injured
fingers and other hurts. The club Is also
without the services of Catcher Sugdcn.
President Frecdman met Mr. Temple In
Boston and asked him what he had decid
ed about the Temple cup. The replv
came Instantly: "There Is no question to
settle about that cup. The clubs finishing
first and second will play- for It, despite
New York's claim of such a contest.
The cup was given wlUh the Idea that the
first two teams at the end of the league
season should play It, not to own, and that
Wei shall be carried this year."
Unless all signs fail, Frank O. Seine,
manager of the Boston league team, will
lie in charge of the New Yorks as soon as
the present champlonshLp season closes.
The deal for Melee's transfer to the New
York club has been on for several weeks.
Saturday night President Freeilman, of
the New York club, had a long consulta
tion with Selee nt Boston, and when the
New York magnate left for home the pos
sibility of the Boston manager's engage
ment looked exceedingly bright.'
deorgo W. Burnham, the. National
league umpire, who has been officiating
at Baltimore for the last two weeks, said
Saturday ntght that he intended to resign.
He says that ho leaves the staff with the
best of feeling toward sH the managers
and players, and that his reason for re
signing is that tie wants to return to his
business at Chicago, which demands his
attention. He predtots that the. Baltl
mores will wttn the pennant, declaring that
they are the fastest and Cleverest set of
ball players he ever saw on the diamond,

QH OTHER SIDE OF CHANNEL
Some Events of the Day on the West
Side of the City Noted.
EISTEDDFOD AT LAKE ARIEL
Conducted by the Calvary Baptist Church
' of Taylor Plymouth Church Choir
Enjoyed a Trolley HUo-Ropub-llean
Club Elects Delegates.
The West Side Interests of The Tribune
have been placed in the hands of Emer
son Owen, to whom all news announce
ments and complaints may be addressed.)
The largest excursion that has left
the West tilde of the river during the
season about ended was that of the
Calvary Baptist church of Taylor yes
terday. Twelve cars carried the crowd
to Lake Ariel. Immediately upon ar
riving at the. lake an eisteddfod was
held, with Hev. Mr. Harris, pastor of
the church, as conductor. The Union
band of Taylor, which accompanied the
excursionists, opened the programme
with an overture. A recitation of a
selection chosen by the reciter for a
prize of $1 was won by Miss Etta Har
ris. (Miss Jennie Thomas was the only
other competitor. A recitation of the
One Hundred and Thirty-ninth Psalm
for girls had only one participant and
the prise was given to Miss Ktta Har
ris. iMIss Harris possesses a good mem
ory and the feeling with which she de
livered the Scriptural passage was ad
mirable. In announcing his decision,
the conductor complimented the young
lady.
A tenor solo, which was the most In
teresting contest of the day, brought
three entries: William Jones, Richard
Winters and George J. Powell. Adju
dicator tiewls Watcyn gave the prize
to the first mentioned. Mr. Jones has
a fine voice, of pure bell-toned quality.
Mr. Powell received honorable men
tion, and deserved It. The prise was
$2. The next competition, on the solo
"Flee As a Bird," had two prize-seekers.
.Miss Olwen Howolls won, though
the other competitor, Miss Sarah Sam
uels, was worthy of mention. The prize
was $1. A duct on "Only Watting." for
a prize of SI, had only one response,
and Miss Sarah Samuels and Arthur
Morgan sang in a manner worthy of
the money.
A party of girls from the church, led
by IMIss Lizzie Owens, was the only en
try for the prize of $10 offered for the
best singing of ' the "Star Spangled
Banner." In announcing that the par
ty 'had merited the prlzo, Adjudicator
Watcyn complimented the young la
dles upon their excellence. It was a
sweetly-pleasing feature of the day.
The chief choral competition of the
morning was for a prize of $10, to the
best mixed party. Two choirs entered,
the Calvary Baptist church party, un
der the leadership of J. R. Francis.
winning. The other party was led by
James Wcutklns, and the result of the
singing was uncertain until the adjudi
cation was given. Mr. Watcyn showed
a nice discrimination In giving the
honor, as both parties sang well. Mr.
Wateyn's decision was received with
a great cheer. Leader Watkina had
many friends present who were sure
that their favorite had won the prize,
but the adjudication was seemingly Im
partial. This closed the eisteddfod. Although
small, yet It created much Interest
throughout. Only residents of Taylor
were allowed to' enter the competition.
A base ball game between the Modocs
and Batsmashers. for a prize of 12. was
won by the latter In a five-Inning con
test by a score of 9 to 0. Batteries,
O'Nell and Dlsktn; Gordon and Moses.
The pitching of Moses iwns a feature.
Mine Foreman Henry Harris excited
comment owing to his ability to con
nect with Dlskin's curves. At the end
of the fifth Inning the game was called,
the Batsmashers forcibly verifying
their name by breaking all the bats
.present. An amusing boat race be
tween Rev. Mr. Harris and John Con
nolly was won by Vhe former In a pro
fessional manner. A sack race was won
by Lizzie Owen and another by a Miss
.Roberts. All In all the day was a pleas
ant one for the excursionists. Beauti
ful weather added to the success of
the outing. W. B. Owen managed the
anair.
Plymouth Chnrch Choir at Oreenwood.

ttonal church, under the leadership of
Ellas E. Evans, enjoyed a trolley ride
