HATS OFF TO HARPER.
He Warn't Ratlicd by Field Errors.
Scran (ens Had on Baiting Clothes
and Wilkes-Barre Couldn't Win.
Tanner Harper's coolness In the box
under circumstances which would make
most pitchers lie down in the diamond
and die, and Seranton's heavy hitting
won the niornlnir Decoration Day car?'
111 Wllkes-Ilarre, Scranton mado ar
teen clean hits and seven 'rrorafand
Horner !n addition misjudged two lonpr
hits and contr!hut?d what wive worse
limn errors, while the Wllkesifunir.niis
inude eleven hits, only nif of which
ouirht to he recorded, an two errors.
Harper did not even muifj one pitching,
error.
Slnylie 200 Scrantorf rooters saw the
grameand they had cr5poitunity to make
their presence knyjwu from the begin
ning;. Not until tjre last of the ninth In
ning did the home crowd have a chiinee
to use Its tin horns and lunirs. It then
jelled an'l blew itself black in Hi ", ti'.ce
vlie'iTwlth none out and live runs n cis
pary ,to tie the score a single, Kugan's
error and anothor single brought In two
runs. It yelled and blew again when,
utter I.essotte had been forced nt second
Hutchinson threw low to Ward and two
men were safe on llrst and second.
Hut there came a fitting climax when
Magtilre Jumped high In the air for
Karl's frisky liner and got to second
In time to make a double pluy unasslst
Vd and end the game.
Three thousand spectators were
present.
LATHAM'S COACHING.
I.ntham was for the first time seen
by hundreds of cranks In this region
a;id he proved himself to be th rrreat
attraction claimed. In throwing he is
not what a third baseman ought to bo
but he fields fast. Is a sure run-getter
pud by his coaching dos mucn toward
pulling out a victory. His coaching
funnor be reproduced In type It is too
Ih OSSHlit and novel and must be Feen
and heard to he appreciated. Tit"
bleachers cannot suppress him; he mim
ics players, umpire and lUdlence and
will nev:-r let any game dvag heavily.
His continued Jabbering materially as
sisted Harper in two of his strike outs,
Mnguire easily ca.ried off the fielding
hopirs of the game by his fast and
brilliant work, while Meaney made two
hard running catches one of which
caused him to take a rnpld somersault,
and liafferty caught a sure and steady
v..-...,... lt:nwl n,..t I.t.l. friD.n
did some timely hitting.
Horner's two misjudged flys In right
field and h's one error were responsible
for thtee WHkes-Uarre runs.
The score:

AMATEUR BASE BALL.
Two fjond Decoration Day tinmcs
Played at Olyphant.
At Olyphant, Saturday, tthe Browns
took two games from the Morning
Glories, of Dunmore, at Athletic park.
After the fourth Inning of the first
game the visitors were unable to land
another man over the plate. McDer
mott occupied the box. for the Browns
and was In fine form. He struck out
seventeen of the heavy hitters from
Dunmore. Cawley pitched for the vis
itors, but did not receive proper sup
port. The rain in the afternoon de
layed the second game, and only seven
innings were played. Walsh started in
to pitch for the home team, but did not
prove very effective. McDermott and
Cleary also pitched a part of the game.
The Morning Glories took the lead un
til the third Inning, when the home
club hit for five runs and kept the lead
to tho finish. In the last Inning the
Glories made a desperate attempt to tie
the score, but were unsuccessful. The
decisions of the umpire were not of the
gilt-edged order. Below are the scores
of both games In detail:

NORMAL SCHOOL DEFEATED.
V. X. C. A. C'aanpioas Wia Two at
Rloontkarg.
The strong Young Men's Christian
association team played two games at
Hloomsburg State Normal school on
Saturday and won both games without
much eiTort. The morning; game was
witnessed by a small crowd, but In the
afternoon fully 600 people were present.
The games were played on the new
athletic Meld and were undoubtedly
two of the best games every played in
Bloom sburg. McDonald, one of Larry
Ketrlck's proteges, pitched the morn
ing; same for the association, and kept
the college men down to six hits.
Near the close of the second game.
Captain Whltt protested a decision of
the umpire and refused to continue the
game, and the umpire awarded
Bloomsburg the ontest by the score
of 9 to 0. The manager of the school
team refused to pay the guarantee af
ter the game.
The team which represented the
Young Men's Christian association Is
undoubtedly the strongest a -sedation
aggregation of this year. In McDon
ald, Posner and Delmer they have a fine
line of pitchers.

Ward was taken violently ill Just be

Captain Frank Bonner, of the Wilkes-
Barre club was so roasted after Satur
day morning's game by disappointed
spectators that he asked Manager Chap,
man to appoint another captain. Chap
quite properly told Bonner to play ball.
u crien, tne outnemer secured irom
Rochester, was not In the game. One of
the Rochester players was given leave of
absence f rtday because or sickness In hl3
family, and as O'Brien had not been given
written notice of release, he was held to
take the other's place.
Says the Springfield News: "With two
such comedians as Ariie Latham and
Piggy Ward the Scranton team ought to
prove a great drawing card on the cir
cuit. The Springfield crowd are anxious
for the Scranton series here to see Arlio
Latham do his act on the coaching lines
near tmru, and inauige in repartee with
the bleacherites."

RULES OF THE ROAD.
Something of Interest to All Wheel
mcnCompliance Insures Safety.
The rules of the road should be rigidly
observed, alike by cyclists and riders
and drivers of all kinds. Outside of the
matter of safety, the most vital one
connected with these rules of the road.
there is the element of courtesy, of
course, but for the consideration of
snfety to life and limb, now with the
advent of the bicycle and the horse
less carriage, the rules of the road
ought to receive strict attention at the
hands of, and be rigidly observed by all
riders and drivers, says "Cycling." It
Is the custom In this country, long
established, that vehicles meeting on
any street or highway shall turn to the
richti Some suppose that this Is only
an unwritten law of the road the
Mlshna of locomotion, so to speak but
as a matter of fact, It is on many
statute books.
The law in many states clearly defines
that carriages, wagons, carts, sleighs
sleds, bicycles, tricycles and all other
vehicles must, when in motion, keep to
tho right. A person driving is very
properly required to have the left
wheels of his vehicle on the right of
the center or the street, in other words,
this law in an authoritative adoption
of the old motto: "Fair play and half
the road." While bicycles are Included
as enjoying this privilege, and horse
mea are required to extend to them
the same courtesy they would another
vehicle drawn bv horses, a fllmllar re
striction Is put upon wheelmen and
wheelwomen. They, too, must turn to
the right. If they fall to do so, and a
collision occurs, they have no one but
themselves to hold legally accountable.
A good natured observance of the law
on the part of all concerned will In
sure absolute safety and freedom from
accident. While some drivers and rid
era are, perhaps, unmindful of this rule,
It la equally true that soma cyclists
are either ignorant of It or do. not see
Ut to live up to Its requirements. They
take their own chances when they pass
an approaching horse on the left. The
taking of such chances has resulted in
more than one serious accident lately.
For Instance a young lady in the out
skirts of Baltimore recently came with
in an ace of being crushed under the
wheels of a wagon, while she was dodg
ing with uncertainty as to whlcn side
to take. She received serious bruises.
A youth in the southern part of Penn
sylvania only the other day had bis
wheel wrecked, and he himself received
severe cuts and bruises from a similar
ignorance of the rules of the road. It
should also be remembered that when
ever a horseman or a wheelman gives
half the road that is all that is le
gally required. Neither can be legally
be asked to give the whole of it High
ways were, perhaps, originally made for
vehicles drawn by horses, but the in
troduction of the bicycle and its adopt-
tlon Into general use afford It the same
facilities, rights and privileges of other
vehicles on tho roads. The grroatest
danger is from the inexperienced rid
ers, whose nerves are sometimes rat
tled in the presence of approaching ve
hicles. Constant pare Is necessary and,
if exercised, mishaps can be easily
avoided. .

One day aa we lay In camp on the Re
publican fork of the Arkansaw river
one of the boys caught a big Jackrab
blt In a snare and made a cage of wil
lows to keep him for a pet Three days
later a tenderfoot came along with a
hunter's outfit and accompanied by a
canine which looked to he a cross be
tween a hound and a bulldog. He said
he had brought the dog the day be
fore of a teamster, and that th'e animal
was a match for any three mountain
wolves.
'What d'ye think of him yourself?"
asked the corporal.
"He looks to me like a fighter." was
the reply.
"How much did you pay for him?"
"Fifteen dollars."
"I don't think he's a fighter," ob
served the corporal In a careless way.
"He looks to me more like a runner.
"Have you anything which can run
him?" asked the tenderfoot as he
bristled up.
'Yes, I think I have. We captured a
hodog the other day, and I think he
can run that dog."
"What s a hodog?"
"Sort of a prairie wolf. There Isn't
much fight In 'em, but there's less in
your canine. I'll bet $5 he runs your
dog out of sight."
"If he does, I'll give you $10: shouted
the stranger, who was nettled over the
way the boys were winking and grin
ning.
The dog was placed out on the level
beyond camn, und the corporal went
after his rabbit Before bringing him
out ho tied his ears over his head with
a strip from a red handkerchief, and
other strips were made fast to his body.
lie was the oddest looking creature any
one ever saw outside of a museum when
the corporal finally dumped him out In
front of the dog. We were gathered
In two lines, and the rabbit had to run
for the dog to get clear of us. The dog
was apparently ready for a row with
one of his species, but when that living
curiosity came for him he dropped his
tail and started off at full speed. The
Jack probably took him for an old pard
of his, for he followed close at his heels
and humped him for all he was worth.
The dog made two complete circuits
of the camp, yelping at every Jump, and
men nnuing the rabbit close at his
heels, he Jumped into the river and
swam across and thus got away. The
stranger looked on without a word, and
when the affair was over he handed
down a $20 bill.
"How's this?" asked the cornoral.
"Why," replied the man. "one ten Is
for my dog being a blamed coward and
the other for me being a blanked fool."

That the Husband Should Re Ready

dered at.
From the Detroit Free Press.
Mr. and Mrs. Baxter were going out
together the other evening, and he said
as he sat with his cigar in his mouth
reading the evening paper:
now we mustn't be late. Mario. I'm
about ready, but will you Just brush
my nat a little?"
"Yes, dear as soon as I get the baby
to sleep."
"All right. And will you Just sponge
that spot out of my vest something I
got on it at dinner."

"And will you lay out a clean collar
tor me, and my evening necktie?"
"Yes, dear," and when she brings the
coiiar ne says:
"Just fasten It on in the back, nlease
I want to finish this account of that
muraer trial. Fut on my tie for me too,
won't you?"
When this is done he says: "Just
put a clean handkerchief in the pocket
of my coat, won't you. And, oh, I for
got, but I twisted a button off my over
coat today. The button Is in one of the
pockets. Can't you sew it on before
we iro? It will take but a minute."
It takes nearer ten minutes for her
to find needle, thread, scissors and the
mssing button, and while she is sewing
on tne mutton ne says:
"Won't you please put the sleevc-
DUttons in my clean cufrs?"
"I can't find but one button. Henrv?
"Oh, well, things are always getting
lost, in mis nouse. uxik around and I
guess you'll find It."
She Is down on her knees neering un
der the various articles of furniture for
the button, when he says:
"Oh, here It Is. I forgot and allnned
