amusement purpose for which Is was)
built. "The Menyr World" Is good but
It is not as good, not near as good, as
was Its predecessor, "The Passing:

There were three features of the pro
duction the general good looks, figure
and costuming of the chorus, the Trilby
Impersonation by Amellla Summer
vllle, the dialect sketches of David
Warfield and the dancing of La Petite
Adelaide. The performance concludes
with a Trilby burlesque. In the final
scene Miss Summerville, under Sven

the best characterisation of Du Maurl

in burlesque or legitimate acting. Her
general poise confirmed the report
which preceded "The Merry World"
that she appear Very nearly as the

V. V. nayera Have Advantages Over
the Local Met.
WHERE THEIR STRENGTH LIES
It Is Malaly In the Years of Experi
ence That Most of the 'Varsity
Man Have Had I'pea
the Gridiron.
The great Pennsylvania '"Varsity"
Soot Ball team a team that has no:
met defeat In the laet two years will
cattle with the Scranton Bicycle club
eleven at the Base Ball park Friday
afternoon. What will the outcome be?
As is usual before a big game, a com
parison of the men who will participate
vlll not be amiss. -
in drawing a comparison between the
two teams. on one point, and possibly
three, Scranton will show up equally
as strong as Pennsylvania. As this
point, the center, is a vital one on a
team, the battle between the giants
should be carefully watched by tne
spectators. Lou O. Cleveland, of Scran
ton, and Alfred Bull, of Wllkes-Varre,
will be pitted against each other.
Cleveland's 205 pounds and six years"
experience will be a decided advantage
over the Wilkes-Barrean's 175 pounds
and four years' experience, but will this
be offset by Bull's well-known science
or will It be discovered that Cleveland,
unaided by experienced coaches, has
solved the mysteries of this all Impor
tant position? If he has, then, with his
nls additional weight, he should have
Bull at his mercy.
Connery and Zang will oppose Stan
dard and Woodruff In the order named.
Here, again, It Is thought that Scran
ton will not be far behind, for Stannard
is only a fair guard and in last year's
same, Connery had very little trouble
with the Pennsylvania man, and on twu
occasions made an opening through htm
large enough to drive a horso through;
while on the other hand Stannard foiled
to get through the giant Connery In the
whole game. Woodruff played oppo
site Gilbrlde last year, but If he ex
pects to have as easy a time this year,
he will be much mistaken, for Zang
is the most aggressive player on the
Bicycle team: he is full of vitality; hi
does not give his man any rest until
the call of time. Woodruff will have a
alight advantage In weight and wind,
but Zang Is a natural foot ball player
and combined with an unusual amount
of strength will make the big Pennsyl
vania guard hustle throughout the
game.
Among the foregoing the game will
be a battle of the giants and It will be
well worth the price of admission to
watch these six men fight for suprem
acy. At right tackle, Wagonhurst should
have the best of it. He Is larger and
heavier than Allen, and Is considered
one of the best tackles that' has ever
played with old Pennsylvania. At left
tackle Scranton will be again out
weighed and out-classed Farrar, 130
pounds, three years' experience under
a good coach, vs. Cogglns, 180 pounds,
one year's experience, no coach. But
the Scranton tackles are plucky boys
and will play so much harder when
they find themselves pitted aginst such
strong men.
Boyle and Dickson, ends, against
.Decker and Owens, ends. Scranton
ipjii who have watched the defensive
work of the Scranton's ends, know
what they can do. Getting down the
field on punts is their weakest point,
while the Pennsylvania's ends are
noted for the way they kept Brewer
and DunloD from saining in the Har
vard gam.
Gelbert, Minds and Brooke are nearly
perfect, two of them being chosen on
the picked all-American eleven for "94
and 95." Of the trio playing back of
Scranton's line, only one man will como
anywhere near being in their class.
Posner will not be able to make the
gains that Minds will, still his ISO
pounds of avoirdupois will make quite
an Indention In U. P.'s line.
Posner is the surest man on the
Scranton team to advance the ball, and
a large amount of the work will, fall
on him during the game. Thayer and
Foster will be simply outclassed In
every respect by Brooke and Gelbert,
though, should Noakes play, Brooke
would not have a sure thing by any
means In the kicking.
At quarter back, Williams will have
an advantage Over Walsh, if for only
the reason of experience, as Williams
has played that position for three years
and Walsh has not as yet played there
n year. In tackling it's an even thing.
So now it may be asked, how, with
so much against them, can the Bi
cycle boys score? The answer Is, If
Scranton's Wedge-shaped interference
Is better than the tandem Interference,
which Is used by the Pennsylvania
team, then all of Pennsylvania's in
dividual advantage, would be over
balanced by this one fact
Cornell used the tandem Interference.
It was asked of a Cornell man at a re
cent Scranton game, what he thought

swer came quick as a flash, "It's .treat:
it's an Improvement on the tandem,"
and so It has proved to be, for no team
has yet been able to stop It This
peculiar Interference was not used by
Scranton until after the University of
Syracuse game, which practically ac
counts for that game being lost by
Scranton, for it Is safe to say that if
Scranton was in as good condition and
had the same Interference they used
so successfully against Elmlra on Nov.

Byracuseans.
Last year's score with U. P. was 24-0:

it will be much Bmaller, and they will

against the lusty collegians, but to
defeat them.

are the reasons why so much gold is

BICYCLE MAKERS' NEW MOVE.
They Have Decldad to Abandon Tholr Ex
penaive Racing Teams.
Despite the arguments which some
people adduce in favor of the retention
of the three classes of cycle racing men,
as the days go by it becomes more and
more certain that the intermediate, or
"What-ls-lt?" class, is doomed.
In connection with the circular letter
sent out recently by the Cycle Board of
Trade sounding the manufacturers on
the subject of racing teams. It is stated
that already four of the larger firms of
makers have decided against the cy
clists, and will put no racing men on the
circuit next year. Others who needed
but a leader will, it is expected, now
flock In, and with no one to hire Class
B men It Is difficult to see how that form
of cycling can exist.
This does not mean that the good old
system of paying men o ride wheels is
dead. By no means. Manufacturers
will undoubtedly continue to pay racing
men for some time to come, but they
find it cheaper to add to the cash which
professionals can win than to maintain
a stable of their own. In other words
the manufacturers will pay certain pro
fessional racing men retaining fees
conditional upon their winning prizes,
and let them go where they like, how
they like, and hire what trainers and
private secretaries they like.
The abolition of Class "B" will be a
good thing for professionalism in this
country, and the cosh prize league, if
it was in existence today, might pay
"-klend next year.

Dear Sir: There was a little error crept
In your notice of the II. F. Atherton
Thanksgiving party that I wlah you would
correct and oblige an old man. I was hern
In Greenfield, Mass., in the year 1810. I
married Ellen Sophia Bennett, of Brattle
borough, Vt.i moved to Luzerne countv In
1834 and settlqd In a little villain then
called New Troy, afterward Wyomlnc.
In 1838 I moved to Hyde Park, two years
previous to the ndvent of Dr. B. H. Throoo
to tho valley. In 1856 I bought and settled
on a farm near Montrose, where I have re
sided till within a year or two, when I
came down here with the boys. I was not
born In Montrose.
Respectfully yours,
Jonathan A. Atherton.
