MORE COSTLY'eRRORS.
They Rattled Brown. Who Started Out
to Pitch a Good Game and Buffalo
Had an Easy Thinj.
Buffalo, Mav 20 Costly errors In the
field had a Rood deal to do with Scran
ton's defeat today. Brown pitched a
fair Kame for the first few InnliiKs. but
got such miserable support that he be.
came discouraged and went to pieces In
the fifth and seventh.
Scranton began the game by pounding
Gannon In the first Inning, which, with
a few bad errors thrown In, netted the
visitors three runs. Then Stahl count
ed one for Buffalo on a base on balls, a
teal and Wise's single, but Scranton
cut this off In their half of the second
on a single by Ward, followed by singles
by Huthlnson and Flack.
It was right here that the reign of the
Coal Barons ended. Buffalo went to
bat In their half of the second, and as
sisted by the field errors of the visitors,
tied the score. Urominger went out on
a grSunder to the pitcher, but Ward let
Smith's grounder get away from him,
and Lewee singled. Ward got Gannon's
grounder, but Stahl walked to first and
Ruhland shot a hot grounder through
Hutchinson, scoring all three men on
the bases. '
In the fifth Ruhland landed a double,
Clymer a three-bagger and Field a
Ingle. These hits, with a bad muff by
, Flack In center, scored three runs for
Buffalo. In the seventh Buffalo got
after Brown again. Wise drawing a
double, Field a long single and Smith a
single. A couple of passed balls helped
In the two runs.
After the second Inning Scranton
coul do nothing with Gannon's deliv
ery and drew a long row of goose eggs
In consequence. The score:

NATIONAL LEAGUE.
It was a bad day for favorites in the
big leugue. New York smothered the
Chlcagoers again; Cincinnati shut out
the Quakers; Brooklyn gave the Pitts
burgs an awful beating, and Cleveland
won from Baltimore on the latter's er
rors. All this puts Cincinnati and
Cleveland a tie In first place and sends
the Giants up above the Browns.

Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Carbnndale, May 20. It was hardly
what could be called base ball weather
today. The air was raw and cold, but
despite this the cranks were not dis
couraged and quite a large crowd sat
oh the hard benches at Anthracite park
and shivered and shook, but neverthe
less enjoyed the sound drubbing Car-
bondule gave the Hazleton boys. There
was a noticeable falling off In the at
tendance on "Deadhead" hill, and those
who gathered there hugged the fires
they had built to keep them from freez
ing. This very pleasant thing, how
ever, will not occur another day, for as
soon as the ewather clears they will be
out in run force.
Jordan probably had an off day thu
fans will be charitable and think so
anyhow. The way his delivery was
knocked ubout was a caution. Buse
hits, doubles and triples in quick order
was not a thing to give much encour
agement to any pitcher, and it evidently
did nut to him. Swift s men are be
coming the terror of all the league
teams. Out of the three games they
have played this week, sixty-live hits
have been pluced to their credit.
Much Interest was centered In the
game, as George Westlake, the crack
third baseman of last year's team.
Piayeu Wltn Iluzleton. He d sammlnt
ed his admirers, however, us he did not
snow up very well, making several er
rors. Alassey carried off the honors of
the game lor Carbundale. In the sec
ond inning a liner was knocked over
first base which looked safe. "Bill"
was there, however, and pulled down
fh ball amid loud cheers. Rafter, in
ngm neiu, aiso aid excellent work. Af
ter the third Inning. In which we scored
five runs, Hazleton went to pieces and
our score was easily run up.

BASE BALL NOTES.
It was Otten's first game and he Is
entitled to the benefit of a doubt, but
two passed bulls and a fielding error
are bad even foru beginning. "Beatty"
Williams, a Scranton young man. and
ex-catcher of the Princeton 'Varsity's,
is supposed to he In Huftalo with T. rt.
Brooks and may go In the game tem
porarily unless Otten was excusable for
his first and poor appearance.
John Brooks left on his still hunt yes
terday morning. Where he will jour
ney to is known ouly to himself. His
object is to secure a catcher, three
pitchers, a heavy-hlttlng outfielder
and possibly a first baseman. We say
'possibly a first baseman because Tom
Power has not appeared In the game.
Serious illness Is all that would keep
him out of it.
.
Some question has been raised wheth
er Scianton has the right to Pitcher
Hurper without giving Rochester first
choice, it being from that club that he
was dratted last year to the National
league. The question is properly raised;
Rochester s consent must be obtained.
The clause In the new National agree
ment bearing on the matter was meant
to block any International scheme to get
a l:iyer oui of one team and into an
other in the same league through draft
or sale to a club outside the league.
In this case it Is plain there wns no
such scheme and Rochester -will prob
ably not withold Its approval.
Hcranton will be Involved In the same
kind of trouble if it Is decided to pur
chase two other players now in the
National league and who were In the
Eastern last year. But In these cases
also there was no preconceived attempt
to transfer the players to Scranton
when they were purchased by the Na
tional league.
...
A dispatch from Scranton states that
Tom Power submitted to the inevitable
and signed a Scranton contract yester
day. And now Power will play Just as
good baseball for Scranton as though
the trouble never had arisen. There are
few men In the business more straight
forward with their employers and
Kuntzsch of Syracuse can bear witness
to that. Springfield Union.
A Buffalo exchange says that Catcher
Rafter, released by Syracuse, may sign
with Scranton.

MILTON BALSINQER AWAKENED.
Sages Continue Their f.reat Ethibi
tiou nt the Academy.
During last night's performances of
the Sages at the Academy of Music
Milton Balzlnger. who was put to sleep
Monday night at 10 o'clock and car
ried to the window of Dunn, the hat
ter, where he had been constantly
watched was carried bark to the Acad
emy stage and aroused from his slum
ber of forty-eight hours.
Two men held Balzlnger while the
convulsions attendant upon his waking
were in operation. He was weighed
by H. U. Hopewell who announced 1-7'i
pounds. Monday night he weighed 134V&
pounds, therefore he lost seven pounds
In the interim. An affidavit sworn to
by three watchers before Alderman
O. B. Wright was read.
A little while after his awakening
Balzlnger went to a Spruce street res
taurant where he drank a cup of milk,
ate some soft toast and then steak and
potatoes. An hour later he went to his
hotel and retired for the night. To a
Tribune reporter Balzlnger said he felt
sleepy and was as hungry and thirsty
as a person would naturally be who
had gone to bed without having had any
food for eight hours previous and had
then overslept twelve hours. His case
though was more pronounced than that.
For the regular performance of the
evening twenty-four subjects were se
lected, among them several of those
who were subjects the past few even
ings. A good exhibition was given of
the manner in which a country school
master and his pupils act during a
class recitation.- Questions were asked
and a reading lesson was also conduct

Mr. and Mrs. Sage, In response to re
quests from numerous sources,- gave a
private entertainment In the Hotel Jer

Produced by the Kennedy Players at

"The Two Orphans" was produced by
the Kennedy players at the Frothing
hiun last evening before a very appre
ciative audience. The versatility of
the members was probably better illus
