WHICH WAS HIGI1T?
Or 1H Yon Thlak That Iloth of Them
Wore Wrong ?
From the Washington Post.
A senator of the United States, a man
who has been In public life for many
years, and who has never been re
garded as of a hasty or belligerent tem
per, sometimes narrates to his friends
un incident that amuses them by its
uniikeiiess to anything they would have
expected from him.
He was truvellng on a Herman rail
way, and was one of three persons who
were locked Into a small compartment,
which had two windows.
At one o the windows sat the sena
tor, while at the other sat a "blg-mus-taehed,
warlike" man, apparently some
member ol the resident nobility. The
Amerlcnn had his window open and
was gazing at the landscape und snif
fing the air, when all at once the man
with the soldierly mustache rose,
stepped forward, und without a word of
apology, uut down the window.
The senator was astonished, of
course; but what could he say? There
are some kinds of insolence which It Is
luird to know how to deal with.
However, the American statesman
rose to the occasion. Instead of undo
ing what the German had done, he
stepped to that gentleman's seat and
put his window up. '
Whether this was dn all respects a
proper thing to do. Is a point as to
which opinions may differ, one thing
Is certain; It was now the second man's
turn to he astonished. Ills mouth re
mained shut, and his window remained
open.

GAME TODAY IN NEW HAVEN
Power Says Syracuse Did Not Reserve
Him and Had No. Right to Sell
Ilim-Mne-Uaroe Practice -Trip
Abroad.
The Scranton players left with Man
ager McDermott on the 12.53 train yes
terday noon for New Haven, where
they will today begin a 9-game practice
period, returning home for games Mon
day and Tuesdav, the 27th and 2Hth,
with the Cuban Qlants, and Wednesday
with Carbondale.
All the players had reported and left
with the team, excepting Magulre. Raf
ferty and Meaney, who were expected
to be picked up In New York city;
Pitcher Dick Brown, who will Join the
team here on the 7th, and First Base
man Tom Power, who, it Was learned
yesterday, claims he was not reserved
by Svracuse and that consequently
Scranton has no rights to his services.
Power made his application for re
lease last week to Nick Young, alleging
that he had not been tendered a '
contract by Kuntzsch, the Syracuse
manager at the close of last season.
The records of President Pat Powers
show that Power, the player, was re
served by Kuntzsch on Sept. 20 for the
present season and that the contract
was promulgated and bulletined by
President Powers In his otllclal. league
communication of January 4. All these
facts have been made known by the
league's president to the Scranton man
agement and llerr Kuntzsch and unless
Power, the player, can prove that
Kuntzsch Is a date-raiser or a fabricat
or, he will have to play In Scranton or
warm chairs.
TERMS OFFERED POWER.
Power slened with Syracuse at $17R
per month for playing services and
for playing and captaining. McDer
mott offert-d him' the same terms. Pow
er wrote that the terms were not satis
factory. McDermott answered and
asked Power to set a figure. Then It
was that the wily salt boiler began
to slide the cards Into his hold-out.
Had he named $215 as his price. The
Tribune is authentically Informed he
would have received it. Meanwhile,
the prediction is made that he will keep
his hold-out up his sleeve, pass his
four-Hush and show his energetic self
on first base for the opening gunie In
gprlnglield on May l.
Power has always liked to play for a
business-like and liberal ownership
und management', and he would have
these things in Scranton. Maybe he
don't know Mie real extent of the
change in the club's proprietorship and
the good thlnss that await the Scran
ton players.
All the. players left In good spirit and
much improved physically by the mild
training they have experienced here
during the last week of tine weather.
It la McDermott's Intention to. begin
the schedule of practice games by play
ing for exercise only. The men will be
Instructed to make the earlier contests
Bort of warming-up affairs until the
24th and 25th when games will be played
with Fall River. Then It Is proposed to
show the New Englanders Just what
kind of bargain-day business can be
done in the Eastern league in pleasant
weather.
SCHEDULE AS ARRANGED.
After ' today's game In New Haven
the schedule Is: Putexson, April 17 and
18; New Bedford, April 20; Newark,
April 21; Brockton, April 22 and 23; Fall
River, April 24 and 2!.
When the team returns home on Mon
day, the 27th, to meet the Cuban Giants,
the grounds will appear In new dress.
The outfield will have been rolled, the
diamond and foul territory made per
fectly even and ' the new right Meld
bleachers, the grandstand addition and
the entrances finished. It Is proposed
to police the park with regulars at
every game, beginning with the exhibi
tion contests. . .

SOME ONE OPENED THE DOOR.
And the Stolon Dog Rushed Out to Greet
Ills Old Master.
Albert t.. Kllberc. of the Seventh
ward, owns a valuable bull dog, which
has acquired a. reputation as a fighter
hot rem hert as iar as iroviuence.
About three months ago a man named
Mcfiulre of that locality called on KU-
berg and wanted to buy a dog. A
dicker was made by which McGulre
was to trade on Inferior bull dog and
tl2 for the superior Kllberg canine.
Kllbere took sick soon after the bar
gain was made and never saw anything
of McGulre or his inferior dog and $12
bonus. His superior dog, however,
disappeared during the time that he
was 111. One' night the padlock Of the
kennel was broken and the dog stolen
When Kllberg got well he made some
Inquiries which led him to suspect that
Mclluiro was the thief. Securing a
search warrant and accompanied by an
oirtcer he went to McOulre's house. Tho
latter solemnly assured Kllberg . and
the constable that the dog was never
In his possession, that he had never
seen the dog. and didn't want the old
dog anyhow. Just then the dog came
bounding out of McGulre s house and
leaned with Joy about his old master.
"Is that your dug?" Innocently asked
McGulre.
"It s well you know it s my dog," re
torted Kllberg, with his finger under
McOulre's nose. -
"Well, take your old dog; nobody
wants him."
"Yes, and we'll take you, too."
And they did.
When Alderman- Millar, before whom
McOuire was' arraigned heard the full
story, he was ready to hold the de-.
fendant for court, but as Kllberg camn
to consider that It fvas qulto a cnmpll
mtnt to his dog's worth to have him
stolen, he agreed not to prosecute If
McGulre paid the costs. This he did
readily, and the matter was dropped,
