. Mora of Ploylnc in tho
National League.
Yesterday closed the Eastern leapue
pennant race which witnesses all the
clubs- In positions they have occupied
lor several weeks. .
Although no more league champion
ship names ore to bo played, cup series
will be fouffht between Seranton and
"WilkesHarre and' between' SprlnptloM
and '.Providence. In the former case
each club has been strengthened and
local rooters may have the pleasure of
seeing victory perched upon Scranton's
banner in the khnu gutmes. aunouKn ue
femt following defeat was the rule in
the letiKiie season: all all events -the
s-ames will te well worth seelns.
Somnton loot ajrain by one run In the
last Innlnsr. thus continuing a record of
frames lost by a single tolly not equalled
by any club in the league. Ituffalo also
lost by a single run to the Canadians,
and Syracuse and Rochester broke
even.
In tho IXatlonal league there Is two
weeks of playing before UaKimore Is
sure of the pennunt. That club will
probably be the winner, but it Is by no
means assured that Cleveland will be
second. Chicago yesterday beat Ixuls-
vllle two games and pulled Itself up to
a tie with Ilrooklyn and iHlttsburg In
fourth place. Boston Is only four
points behind them and New York
trails along nine points behind Boston,
nnd all live clubs will make a decided
ly lively and uncertain scramble for a
place In the first division. Cleveland
yesterday improved its hold on second
place by taking two games from St.
Louis.

Kilhcs-IJarrc and Seranton Players
Hound to Win the Trophy.
SERIES BEGINS HEKE TODAY
Whichever Club Wins, Spectators Are
Sure to See Sharp and Hurdd'ought
liumcs Intense Kivulry
Among the Players.
The make-up of the team that will
represent Seranton In the trophy cup
series with Wilkes-Harre warrants the
! prediction that the club from down the
valley will have to do Its prettiest to
win. Harper, the Rochester pitcher,
could not be secured, but In his stead
i.Mat Kilroy will come here with tho
I other Syracuse players and with Har
nett and iScranton's popular Pat .Mea-
ney will make up a pitching trio hard
to beat.
The -first game In the series will be
played in this city today. Play will be
called nt 3.4A o'clock, and whatever the
result may be the contest promises to
be sharp and hard fought. Ned swart
wood, who. with Onffnoy. was the only
Eastern league umpire to officiate con
tinuously during the season, will um
pire the series.
Scranton's Hattins Order.
Following will be today's butting or
der of the Scrantons:
W. Rugan, second baas.
' Meaney, center field. "
P. Kagan, left Held.
Mlnnahan, third base, ' 1
Power, first base.
Sehriver, catcher.
Smith, right Meld.
Moss, shortstop.
Rarnett, pitcher. . .
In view of the well-known rivalry
between the Syracuse and Wilkes
Barre players, and because of the cer
tainty that the regular Seranton play
ers will do their utmost to win back
the'laurels lost during the season, the
games will probably cause a new in
terest and will attract large crowds.
A prominent base ball crank said last
night: "I fell safe In predicting that
Seranton will get the' trophy. The new
players will be enthusiastic and will
work hard to win, .At all events we
will see a much better article of ball
than has been given during the sea
son." That Is the thing In a nutshell;
whichever club wins, it will have to
battle hard for Its victory, and this con
dition should cause close and exciting
games,' such as the cranks like to see.
One commendable feature of th!
games Is that SO per cent, of the gros3
receipts will bo equally divided be
tween the two clubs. The players will
thus bo worklnjr In their own Interest
as well as for the base ball honor of
the J.wo cities, and for these reasons
also there wll proba'bly be seen games
more tenaciously ought than at any
previous time this year.
The Syracuse players will reach here
today nt 12.40 p. m., and 'the Seranton
club will return frcm Providence on the
1.10 Lackawanna train.
Trophy Here Wednesday.
The New York firm that Is making
th.- trophy cup has promised to deliver
it In Scrantoh on Wednesday, when it
will be placed on exhibition. On the
following dny the cup will be exhibited
In Wilkes-llarre, and thereafter It will
be displayed In Jhe two cities on the al
ternate days on which games are
played. Following Is the schedule:
.MONDAY. SF.PT. 10. In Seranton.
Tt'K.SDA Y. SEPT. 17. In Wllkes-Rarre.
WEDNESDAY. SEPT. IS, In Seranton.
THl'RSDAY, SEPT. 19. In Willtes-llarra.
WEDNESDAY. iSKPT. Si. In Seranton.
Tllt'RSDAY, SEPT. 2l. In Wllkes-Rarre.
FRIDAY, SEPT. 27. In Scrnnton.
Tt Is possible that Pitcher Delaney, an
old Seranton player, and a fnvorlte,
will be seen In the box for Wllkes
Rurre. Howard Karl, the Wllkes-Harre
first baseman, to whom has been re
legated the management of his club
during the series, nn Saturday said lie
wanted either Delaney or Ned Crane,
the exJN'cw York giant, to strengthen
the Wllkes-Rp.rre pitching department.
Should Delaney pitch today for Wllkes
liarre against his old club and former
city, this nlono will attract many extra
hundreds to the "park.
The prospect of the coming hnttle
and the trophy cup hn& Intensified the
rivalry, which Is already great, be
tween the two sets of players. Such
men as llenney, Hilly nnd Pete Engan,
Power and Moss always play well, but
there Is their own pecuniary benefit
and honor at stake In the present series
and they, with the others, will prob
ably put tip that kind of a gamo which
the enthusiast dearly loves to see.
Dcst In the Eastern l.cngno.
Billy Kagan Is, without doubt, the
best second bnscman In the Tlastern
league, and 'Shortstop Moss Is by many
considered as fast as Cooney, of Provi
dence, or Shannon, of the champion
Sprlngflelds. Power Is what Is called
a "fighting player," not because he Is
physically pugnacious, but on account
of his earnestness and tenacity up to
the Inst of the last Inning. He wns
the captain of the 'Syracuse team, and
will probably be chosen captain of the
new .Seranton club. Mlnnahan In ad
dition to being a fnst fielding third
baseman. 1s a terrHlc hitter. His home
run, trlplo and single were features of
Friday's game with Rochester In Syra
cuse. Of the hitting and fielding; abil
ities of iMeaney and .Pete Ragan, every
Seranton bojr In knickerbockers knows
without being told, and these, with
Alex Smith, Hill Schrlver and Pitchers
Harnett and Kilroy, should make a
team which will keep the trophy cup
In this city.
The action of the Wllkes-Rarre play
ers on Friday shows that they are leav
ing no stone unturned that may give
them victory. . Each signed a paper
binding himself to keep In good condi
tion during the series or forfeit his
share of the rectfpts. It was reported
In base ball circles here fast night that
a purse Is being subscribed to In
Wllkes-Barro to be (riven to that city's
players In case'they win the series,

NEWS OF THE S01TII SIDE.
Close of tho Women's .Mission and Open
Ing of the Mission for Men-short
Paragraphs of News.
The men's mission opened at St
John's church last evening at 7.30. The
women a mission closed at 3 o'clock In
the afternoon with a sermon on perse
verance by Father Cullen and the Im
parting of the papal benediction, to
which thera is a plenary Indulgence.
This week will be for the men ex
clusively, and tho masses and services
will be at the same hours as last week,
namely, u and 8 o'clock masses, and at
7.:I0 doctrinal Instruction, the rosary, a
sermon and benediction of the most
l.l'Hseil sacrament. There will be a
children's mission, each morning this
week at 8 o'clock. Father llurke
preached nt the 10.30 mass, which was
celebrated by Rev. J. A. 'Mollltt. Sle
directed his words toward parents, and
with telling emphasis pointed out the
necessity of educating the children In
the principles nf religion, showing them
a good example and bringing them up
to know, love and serve lod.
At 7.30 In the evening Father Burko
preached again. His serniuti wa on
salvation. Ills impressive voice and
clear cut enunciation are admirably
blended, aud he has u power of sway
ing his hearers.
l.Many a man, said the speaker, goes
to the portals of eternity without re
pentance, expecting on Ills death bed to
ninke pence with Almighty Ood. .Man
should tremble nnd shudder at tli"
prospect of going without a moment's
warning before the judgment sent of
(Joil to answer for every action or lire,
and no one can escape that position.
Every man In life will one day bear the
Irrevocable sentence of the Judge, and
it will be either the Invitation to be
come citizens of heaven or the leeroe
to be everlastingly tenants of hell.
What, said he in conclusion, will It
profit a man to gain tho whole world
and suffer the loss of his own soul?
