them ones this season when a hit was
needed.
Baltimore was credited with 193 sacrl-
nce nits last season, wnus swing's Cincin

says that is on of the big reasons why
the Oriels west the pennant to second
Coal Eitof 3
time and why the Reds finished so low In
the race.
Dan Brouthers savs that In 1894 he con
sidered Kusie the hardest man In the
league to hit. He attributed this to his
territlo speed and change of pace. He be
lieves, however, that he has seen his best
days. There Is not a iiltcher in existence
who is not liable to let down after seven
hard seasons.
The friends of Jlmmle Dean, the pitcher,
will be pleased to learn that he has not
been farmed out by Manager Buckenber

Is an Illustration of the deep Insight some
of the scribes on the circuit have Into the
national game. What is the difference be
tween "farming" and "loaning" In base
ball? Ex.
Says the Wllkos-llarre Record: "The
Scranton club has been regarded as some
what of an ex)f rlment owing to the fact
thut Its men collectively had not been to
gether bifore. and It was rather to be ex
pected that reverses would come to them
to a greater dearee than would be the
case with Wllkes-Barre. McDermott was
handicapped to the extent of assuming
charge of an aggregation with which he
was scarcely acquainted, at least only
In so far as their individual records would
reveal."
The Carbondale Herald savs: The direc
tors yesterduy answered Swift's Inuulry
as to what they would sell the team for,
by telling; him $l,Stio. The Lender's report
that Mi'Uu.iid had been sold Is fale.
Scranton offered a fair sum for him Sat
urday, bill they wanted the deal closed at
once. The directors fooled around Just
long enough to miss their chance. Scran
ton's management changed its mind. The
local management has not yet succeeded
In reducing expenses. It is pretty general
ly believed tha Swift Is working against
the association, but for some inexplicable
reason he has not been released.
Of Ward, the Buffalo Times has this to
say: Talk about your Lathams und your
Connellys, but for downright amusing
coaching "Piggy" Want, the mastodonlo
second baseman of she Scrantons, Is pret

'FISTICUFF EVENTS
SEEN AT MUSIC HALL
Harry Hayden, of PitUtoo, and Billy
Veraon, of Haverstraw, Meet .
WAS NOT A FINANCIAL SUCCESS
As aa Eihibitioa Performance It Mas
Not UooW8oaie of the Friendly
Bouts Turned Oat Differently Be
fore They Were Over, Notably the
.Heeling of Toby Gardner and Young
Uuerens.
Three or four days ago an arrange
ment was made for an exhibition at
Music hall last night between Harry
Hayden, of Pittston, who was matched
to fight Champion James Judge, and
Billy Vernon, known as the Haverstraw
Brlckmaker. They came together ac
cording to schedule and boxed two 2
mlnute rounds, as the final bout of the
evening there being six other bouts.
Mike Keeley was referee, announcer.
and timekeeper. Vernon was attired in
a maroon colored garb, which fitted
him loosely. There were no sleeves on
it and he had plenty of chance to swing
his arms dexterously, which he ma,
much to the discomfiture of Hayden,
who wore a Muck trunk and appeared
too tleshy to be able to put in a good
battle.
Vernon could land on him as often
as he pleased, and drew forth much ap
plause on account of the very clever
style ot boxing he presents. He Is an
experienced man In his line, and his
looks tell that lie has seen many battles.
He has fought about fifty for money,
and has been on the boards in events
similar to the one last night not fewer
than 200 times. Hayden was handi
capped by an Injured thumb, which
gave him considerable trouble, but con
sidering that he was up against a man
like Vernon, he gave a good account ot
himself, notwithstanding.
KELLET AND KANE BOUT.
John Kelley and William Kane, both
of this city, went inside the ropes first
and gave a 3-round exhibition of
friendly sparring. It looked as though
they would put up a stiff battle If they
went at It for blood.
Professor Hlnes, a wandering aero
bat, was the second number on the pro
gramme. He tumbled a summersault
over four chairs, cut an Imitation of
a Christmas tree and other designs out
of tinted paper with his lingers, at the
same time balancing a funnel shaped
roll of paper on his nose tip. After this
he passed the hat and took up a col
lection. He gave a hard luck story and
was treated liberally.
Mr. Keeley announced that Jack
Slav in, of Great Bend, and Mike Bres
nahan, of New York, would entertain
next. Slavln might be a good man In
his class In Great Bend, but he was
not in It. with Bresnahan, who was
none other than Jack Regan, of Jer
sey City. Regan was down along the
Jersey sea coast last winter doing
turns. Slavln was hit ten times to the
one blow he gave the man from Skeet
erville. Toby Gardner, of the South Side, and
Martin Guerens, came forward In an
swer to the referee's announcement and
prepared to give the spectators a
friendly exhibition. It was so friendly
that Guerens made his e3ca.pe from the
ring after the first blow had been
delivered on his neck.
O'ROURKE AND MADISON.
Tom O'Rourke, of Hyde Park, and
Billy Madison, put on the gloves nnd
had a time of It for two rounds.
O'Rourke was not heard from since the
time he challenged Louis Jester, of
Wllkes-Barre, until last night. He and
Madison gave a clever exhibition and
the honors were about equal.
Jim McCadden, of Nanticoke, was
mutched to meet Bobby Allen, of this
city, for a few rounds for points. Al
len did not care about going on, and
In order to accommodate the gentle
man from Nanticoke, who was anx
ious to show his ability, Began, alias
Bresnahan, met him and drew the
claret from hia nose and spread it
around his face. Regan and Vernon
then gave an entertaining exhibition
for two rounds.
