Notwithstanding the cold weather of Saturday the largest crowd of the sea son gathered at Anthracite park to wit ness the closing game of the season be tween Hazleiton and Carbondale. The crowd was a happy one, .too, and hadn't they a rigiht to be happy? The mighty iHazleton team, the winners of the pennant. What happened to them? Both pitchers were baitted freely and safe hfts made galore. The Hazleton lans came first to the 'bat and the first ball that was pitched resulted in a three base hit. Then followed a twvi bagger and a safe htt, and when the lde was retired the Hazleton team had three runs to their credit. The spec tators looked, blue as the home team came In to the bat. The result was, Indeed, dubious then, but before many minutes had passed things had changed. The ball was pounded all over the field, costly errors made and Carbondale retired with five runs. Hazleton was blanked the next in ning and Carbondale pushed one run over the plate. Neither side scored during the next three Innings, and in the sixth each scored a run, .Another blank for Hazleiton In the seventh and two for Carbondale. This was the last run scored by Carbondale. but the vls- ' ltors were retired hi the ninth with one run wanting to tie the score. The features of the game were the . heavy hitting and good fielding of the home team. Patchen led the list with two three-baggers and a double, be side several base hits. Btaltz also made ; two three-baggers, and Wewtlake suc ceeded In making one. Hazleton also hatted hard, but their errors and poor running lost the game.

The excursion season Is practically closed. Family reunions are-becomlng epi demic. The custom seems to have been imported from Susquehanna county, where they have been in vogue for a lonar time.

The buckwheat crop Is reported good, despite .drouth and frosts, und the average farmer will come up to the scratch this winter, ns usual.

DcAVItt Is a Wyoming county product, having been born over In 'NorthmorelanU township, and na turally has lots of friends here who would have been glad to see him get the nomination and election, but the string that communicated with the working machinery was Just out of his reach. The Lehigh Valley company spends hundreds of dollars every season In beautifying the lawns at the stations along the line, and thousands of gerani ums and foliage plants are set out and tended for the mere purpose of grati fying the taste of those who patronize the road. The thing most to be re gretted about It is that the flowers never reach their best until about the time the frost Is ready to cut them down. The rich-hued foliage plants are Just In their glory now and the geraniums nre a delight to look at. The local Democratic primaries were very quietly conducted Saturday, there being no contests on hand. The dele gates In the borough were all Instruct ed to support F. W. (DeWitt for county treasurer In the convention today. The only other aspirants seem to be J. Dud ley Inman, of Tunkhannoek township, and James Swartz, of Overtield. As each will probably come Into the con vention with about the same number of delegates, an interesting fight may take place. The general opinion seems to be that D?Wltt will win, as he Is popular with the boys the county over. The kith and kin of Abram Luce, one f the most Influential and respect ed citizens of Lynn, made a surprise party for him on Saturday, the occa sion of ills seventy-fifth birthday. Nearly all the relatives, including three generations, were present to enjoy the social cheer, and a merry day was spent. Householders are hustling with all diligence to get their winter's supply of coal In before the advance In prices strikes the local market. The present rates for chestnut and larger sizes Is $3.70 by the carload, but these figures are likely to be changed any day. A pleasant social event on Saturday was the celebration of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Theodore iStreeter. Their hand some and capacious residence on East Tioga street was thronged with guests afternoon and evening, and a more hospitable reception was never accord ed to a like couple. Elegant refresh ments were served, and many tokens of esteem were left by the visitors.

Happsaiags of Iaterest to tbs Staple Trades sad Particularly to lha Trad -la Iron, Steel aad Anthracite Coal.' ' The Columbus, O.. Street railway car ried 2S.00O more passengers lant week than iu the corresponding week last year. It h said that manufacturers of steel billets may attempt to form an organi sation .having for H principal aim a division of territory ' Sn the United States. Five church cars are In constant use on the Tranasllit.rlan railroad. The Russian government operates them through a territory which averages tea than one Inhabitant to the acre and which could not support churches under ordinary clrcunist.v:ices. The cars are lltted up like orthodox Greek c'.iurebes and hold services in seventy settle ments a week. The higher prices for anthracite offi cially announced last Thursday have not as yet been followed by an odlclal announcement of similar action by the New York companies and there is no evidence of a concerted movement to raise prices. Nevertheless, It can be stated that some of the anthracite companies in New York have rai'.sed their prices as hlg.li s SO cents a ton. There. is "good authority" for saying that some of the New York anthracite companies have raised their prices as high as 30 cents a ton lately, wiiih the Lackawanna umoiig those which re fused to sell coal except nt thrlr ow.i prices. The reason for this attitude on their part is that coal Is selling much too low In view of the cost of production, and that economic, condi tions will force buyers Into paying higher prices sooner or later. There Is a veritable car famine In the Pennsylvania coal and Iron rejvloma. The running down of equipment owing to the poor tonnage of the pa sit two y.ars and ithe unexampled prosperity of Iron Industries are responsible for the famine. Kven with the equipment In the condition of two years aifo there would not be enough cars. The pros pect, which Is now- a certainty, of an unprecedented grain tonnage, made all the roads put itht ir grain equipment in order first, and the demands of the Iron men have more than kept pace with the ability of the roads to supply them. The mill and furnace yards are bare of stock, and their owners are hounding the roads day and night to give them enough material to keep run ning. It ils ttftinia.ted there Is 1,000,000 tons of iron ore In stork at the mines. Half of thta will be delivered at Lake Krle ports before tho close of naviga tion, and It Is now believed the roads from Lake Krle cannot deliver It as fast at t,he furnaces us it will be needrd. The demand will be so large and the profits so grea.t that the Iron men must ship thousands of cars by rail from the mines to Pennsylvania. The fur naces are having as hard a time getting fuel us ore and could easily do 50 per cent, more (business If they could get the material. HEALTH! Do You Appreciate It?
