sger Borate's Term EaJa,
Scranton will no longer be a member
Of the Eastern league of base baH clubs,
and It is possible that this city will
next year be rvpreeentea in ine ftnn
avlvanla State league.
There was an amicable parting yt-s-
teruay between tne association and
ALanager Barnle, who has gone to
Brooklyn and Hartford, fci which two
cities he usually spends the winter.
The announcement thut Scranton will
go out of the Kaatern league la made
authoraKveiy ana is suDetanuateu oy
present effoi ts by ul Klver aud New
ark uarties to purchase the franchise.
For several days each has been bldiliiiK
toward the $2.50 asked. These facts
wore confirmed by President Hetts in
an Interview with a Tribune reporter
yesterday.
. Lost $3,000 This Season.
During the past season the Scranton
arduclatlon lost approximately 13.000.
and but for the good executive ublllty
of Macuger Barnle the directors of the
association txlleve the loss would be
much more. The directors think that
kn a minor kague a Scranton club has
a better chance of finishing toward t he
top of (the list than In the Eastern
' league and that consequently a win
nWvg club will be better supported by
the public and will bring more money
to tne owners.
The decision to sell the f ramchisa was
. made with the assurance that Scramton
it wtuitfd In the State league, of which
this city's club was the backbone In
the first half of the 1S34 season, and In
Which league a profit was made In 1S93.
President 'Htlts has good reason for be
ing satisfied W Scranton returns to its
earlier love that an A lien town club
wlll pome In and that Al Johnson will
be the principal owner. The league Is
elated to Include Wllliamsport, Phila
delphia. Reading, Haaleton and Lan
caster, atnd there is a disposition to
drop Carbondale.
Doubts About tho Stat League.
While the decision to withdraw from
rtie Eastern league 1a positively stated.
it is by no means a certainty that a
berth will be taken In the State league.
There U among certain of the directors
a deposition to abandon the business
rather than do what they consider Is
taking a decided backward step, and
ft Is this feeling which may upset all
calculations as to the future.
arly last spring and during June of
fers wsre made for the stock by a
coterie of young business men. wlrh
whom some older and Influential per
sons were associated. The difference
between the sum offered and asked,
however, was so great thait negotiations
fell through and have not been re
vived. There is still a suspicion among
well-Informed parties that the young
men who last year failed to buy the
stock will now purchase It rather than
seethe Eastern league franchise trans
ferred to another city. This seems rea
sonable when tt Is considered that the
price asked for the franchise last spring
was 13,000 more than is asked now and
$3,500 mote than ithe sum possibly ex
pected. Betts May Remain Interested.
In the event of the franchise being
kept In ithis city by new owners, it
would not be a surprise if President
Betts continues to be financially in
terested, although he yestwdajc denied
having such an object In view
Along with the announcement of the
proposed franchise sale It 13 stated that
President Betts and his associate- tare
looking for a playing manager for 18U6.
This a.Iso was confirmed in 'the Inter
view with President Betts, and indi
cates preparation for actual business
next yt'iT, and the effort to secure a
manager does not pbe with the suppo
sition that Scranton Is not to possess a
professional club.
One of the most conspicuous of the
rairtle-s who eaTllar In the year made an
offer for the franchise was seen by a
Tilbuns reporter last night and told of
the proposed eale. it was the first Inti
mation the gentleman had of the situa
tion, and when told of the price men
tioned, stated that he stood ready to
guarantee that the franchise would re
rrtij.i -in Sn-anton provided the amount
was correctly reported. He eald:
"Among the men with Whom I was
Interested In the matter no conferences
have recently taken place nor have we
talked It over casually, but I will per
eorvally guarantee that the franchise
will remain In Scranton I'f 12,000 Is the
value placed upon it by Its owners.
No State League for Them.
"I don't understand this proposition
to tell the frarrchlae to parties In an
other city, unless the present owners
are anxious to see a State league olub
here. But I wajit to say right here thai
none of my money goes Into a State
league entrprtej and that's about tne
way my friends feel. We want to In
vest our money In order to see Scran
ton represented by a good club in a big
league, but we don't want anything to
do with a state organisation.
"Base ball In Scranton will be killed
by a change to a minor league. In any
event. If this city wlith 100,000 popula
tion to draw from cannot support an
Eastern league club It won't support a
club In amy league."

A TALK ABOUT BEER

WHAT IT MAY INDICATE
How Bear Affects Various Paoplo A
Strang Fact Familiar to Most Doc
tors but Not to th Aver ago Man
Who Quaffs the Foaming, Lager.
Prink beer! Don't drink beer!
This seems like very contradictory ad
vice, but. nevertheless. It is the con
denned opinions of two great classes of
people. There are some who belli-ve
that a glass of beer Is a healthful. In-
vii;or&tliiK beverage. There are others
who regard beer as a sort of disguised
poison. Au the strangest thing about
it Is that both opinions may be right
ui'der certain conditions.
The fact of the matter Is that a glass
of buer may be either a benefit or
curse, according to the health of the
person who drinks It. If a man or wo
man Is In sound health It may do good.
If. on the other hand, there Is a weak
spot In the liver or kidneys. Injury will
result from the drinking. One of the
greatest proofs that liver complaint is
more common than we suspect Is the
ou-repeateu remark or beer drinkers
"I wl.sh 1 hadn't taken that class."
In this tvuy. beer acts as a barome
ter which shows lihe state of the health.
If you drink a glass of beer and oon
after commence to feel that something
Is wrong in the small of your bavk, or
have a dull, heavy feeling, a bad ta.vte
in tne mouth, and. perhaps, the first
stages of a headache, you may be sure
that your liver and kidneys need
prompt attention. Neglect tho warning
and more serious results are bound to
louow sooner or luter.

Seranton fraction Company Wants to
Prevent Contractor Barber from Doing

Traction company officials were much
put about yesterday over the granting
of a permit to Ira T. Hurber to move a
house along the line of Uhelr wasnpurn
street route between Kebecea and Main
avenuiis.
The house, wihloh Is a small frame
structure, la to be moved from Its ori
ginal location on Rebecca, avenue to
Tenth street, and the route between
these two points Is Washburn street,
which la traveled by the company's
tracks. When the contractor got the
house loaded Intact on two wagons It
was seen that It would not clear the
compitny'9 tivdley and guy wires, but,
notwithstanding this, the contractor
determined to make the experiment.
Tlhe Traction people hastened to secure
Intervention of Street Commissioner
Kinsley and when that official reached
the scene he four.l Mr. Harrier, the con
tractor, in possession of a license from
the city to do house moving and a per
mlt from Building Inspector Nelson to
move this particular house.
The street commissioner is looking up
the law on the matter and the house 1b

ties figured in a case tried yesterday
morning before Alderman John. David
K. Nicholas controls a wooded piece of
land on the West mountain In Ransom

for the two men's arrant. At the hear
ing held yesterday morning Wlckwlre
and Klots plead guilty, and the case
waa forthwith settled. The thieving
occurred during this month at different
times.
Riding on tho Fender.
Since the - advent of ths street car
fender on the Rendham line, a new
form of dead-beating ha materialized
among the small boys. Frequently the
urchins ran be seen hanging on the
fear femder, which Is always hung up
when the trolley is changed. There,
out of Bight of thJ conductor, the little
fellows enjoy a free ride for 'blocks.
And. by the way, since the new style
of riding has come In vogue, a nciw
form of accident will soon follow. One
of these fenders will some day "lt on"
sume young American, aind bruises will
be the result.
Good Meeting Tonight.
At the Welsh Philosophical society
