Special to the Seranton Tribune.
Toronto. Out., Mny Ki.-The Torontos
liaJ a regular llelii-iluy this afternoon
with the collection of boll players that
follow "Piggy" Ward's lead. The visit
ors were iu;ver In thu hunt. The slow
delivery of the red-tnatchet pitcher
JH-it wax liuiuiuered all over the lot
and It was vrltli a fervid exclamation,
of thankfulness that he hailed the clos
ing InnliK.M of a guiue which was tire
some and tedious, both to the players
and spectator.".
The visitors played a giiine in the
Held that would tiikr the heurt out of
uny jiiii'her lut Mr. Heir stuck to his
guiiM manfully despite the barbarous
way In Uilch his curves were treated.
lireat things had been expected of the
Mcrantuiis and It wus a sore disappoint
ment to the sou spectators that they
proved such easy prey.
Magulre tit third was the only man
who did not contribute an error. Kugun
at left having no less than four. His
wtakness seemed to be on ground balls
ns they lii-viiubly got away from him.
Klacli, In center, woefully misjudged a
line tly to center.
This mistake was responsible for a
rim. "Piggy" Ward worked up several
paroxysms of kicking, besides deliber
ately cutting a new hall with the spikes
in his slices so as to cause an old hall
to be put Into play. He shirked a couple
ol hot ones that went his way, besides
mulling an easy liner which would have
permitted a double. He fell foul of the
c'iWtl and was guyed from start to
finish.
Moran was liberal with his bases on
balls, giving no less than eleven, hit
ting two men, but as he did not evince
this trait until the game had been vir
tually won, no damage resulted. He
was not hit to any great extent.
In the second the Torontos got a trio
of runs, not one being earned, after
two men were out. Hess fumbled Stu
art's grounder and the latter was safe.
Flack missed O'Brien's fly, while Uagan
made a mess of Dowses long hit to
second and as Moran worked in a hit
and Flack contributed an error three
men were scored. Four runs come In
the next by virtue of three hits and
costly errors of Ward and Hutchinson.
Another was scored in the next on a
base on balls and a hit, while in the
fifth a half dozen tallies were evolved.
A dry rot seemed to affect the Scran-
tons, as they went all to pieces. Smith
started off with a hit, then Herr
fumbled Stuart's grounder and O'Brien,
Dowse and Moran followed with singles.
two of which went through Eagani
legs, giving the batters an extra base.
Four runs came In and Moran was re
tired at second on Wright's grounder,
a double being averted. A single and a
two-bagger netted two more runB, mak
ing six In all.
Three runs were earned In the eighth
on tnree two-baggers and a tingle.
Seranton tallied their first in the sixth.
wnen after two men were out, Moran
gav four bases on balls. Meaney's
two-bagger and Magulre's single gave
them another In the seventh. A base
on balls, an error and a hit scored one
'more in the eighth. In the ninth
Seranton got three on two hits, a hit
by pitcher and a base on balls.
Manager Buckenberger Is confident
that he will make it three straight from
seranton, ana judging from today's ex
hibitlon he ought to do so,

Carbondole Clttb Loses tho Game In Ye
terdny's Encounter.
Special to the Seranton Tribune.
Carbondale, May 15. It was a large
and enthusiastic crowd that witnessed
the leaders In the race for the pennant
win a hard fought game from the Car-
bondalo club. Carbondale has nothing
to be ashamed of, however. In the de
feat, as the game was by far the snap
piest played here this season, and it
was only by a hit being made while two
men were on bases that the winning run
was maae.
The fact that Lancaster was to play
brought out many people, who warmly
applauded the excellent playing of both
sides. Lancaster made several kicks.
but the good natured Jollying of the
crowd Boon stopped this.
Up to the eighth Inning the score was
2-2. Then was when Carbondale met
defeat. Two Lancastrians were on
bases when Henry, by a BWlft liner Just
over uargo s neaa, orougnt in both,
The score was 4-2 when Carbondale
came in and there was an Intense si
lence for a minute. Then, as Cargo
maue a two-Dagger to leit held, carbon
dale's hopes went up with a bound,
Sales, however, went out to shortstop,
and then O'Oara, who had Just been
put in, came up. it was a critical mo
ment to put a new man In the game,
"Tonnnie- strucK out. Anderson re
vived hope one more by taking his baRe
on balls and then the crowd went wild
as McQuald stepped to the plate. He
hit the ball a territicwliack, but It went
Into the left fielder's hands and Car
bondale was beaten.
Tne game proved that swift's men
can play ball. , and It has given the
player confidence. '
Lancaster will, again play this after
! noon anil tht crowd will nn doubt the
biggest of the week. Store:

The Cleveland Bicycle.
Mr. S. S. Thorpe who represents H. H.
Loler & Co., manufacturer of tne
Cleveland bicycle, and who has had
charge of the exhibits at the many ccle
shows, will be at Koote & Shears today
una Monday, with a line of Cleveland
parts and sanple wheels.
I nere are many valuable improve
ments in the 9t Cleveland, some of
them in me i he less real because to the
casual obiierver the changes involved
are subtle and unobtrusive, chief
among which are the celebrated dust
proof bearings.
The cup holding the bearing Is ground
out after the wheel is assembled, there
by forming a true center and taking
away all deviation of tempering and
also the natural vibration of the heavy
machinery In doing the grinding. This
fact Is overlooked by most people, but
It enables the Cleveland to guarantee a
perfect running bearing with but six
drops of oil every ninety days, two
dozen per year.
AH through the show large crowds
have stood in front of the Cleveland ex
hibit and gazed In amazement at the
many and severe tests to which Mr.
Thorpe has put the spokes and the cele
brated detachable tire, (which Is on this
make only) among which waa the
weight of a 180 pound man on two
spokes. Another most Important fea
ture or the Cleveland Is the chain
which has a hardened tool ateel pin and
is tne only chain which does not rivet
the pins in the links. Mr. Thorpe, after
being completeliy blindfolded, is abla to
plcK out the Cleveland from among ten
wheels ridden by him, guaranteeing to
tell the Cleveland chain by the uniform
ity or tne links passing over the
sprocket.
The Cleveland Is not a chance medley
of unrelated parts, for the reason that
everything except the wooden rims and
the valves In the tires Is made by H. A
Lozler & Co., under the competent su
pervision of one management. The
Swell Special Is essentially the wheel
of society, and is exclusively used by
many of New York's "400," notable
among whom are O. H. P. Belmont and
Mrs. Belmont, nee vanderbllt, M
Aster, Richard Mansfield and Mrs.
Mansfield and John I). Rockefeller, wno
has already bought and given away
a dozen '96 Clevelands. Foot & Shear
