Harper Pitched tiood Ball and Hot
the Proper Kind of Support.
But for Eddie Rofferty's wild throw
to third to block a double steal, Wllkes-
Barre would have been goose-egged on
Us own grounds yesterday, and but for
Wllkes-Barre' errors at critical points
Scranton would have been kept down

tween Harper and Keenan, In which
the Brooklyn farmer had slightly the
best of Harper gave only seven
hits for lpht buses and one base on
balls, wblle Keenan was negotiated
for elever hits for thirteen bases, but
he is credited with three strike-nuts and
escaped without a pitching error, which
makes his performance anything but
ordinary.
Eagan, Meaney and Ward seemed
destined to be Harper's chief support,
and they accepted successfully the
many difficult chances which came
their way. Eagan made three running
catches and Meaney one of the kind
that made the anxious crank's hair
curl, while Ward, who played first,
made himself solid by gathering in
four high fouls and fair flies back of
and around his bailiwick.
While the percentage record now
shows that Scranton has won two and
Wllkes-Barre three games, each club
has won two of the four games actunl
ly played, as one victory credited to

DIGGIN3 WAS HURT.
Digging was hit on the knee-cap by a
foul tip in the second inning and was
sent to grass. He suffered great pain
ror a few minutes, but pluckily fin
1shed the Inning. Wente took Diggins'
place at the beginning of the third.
In the absence of Manager McDer
rnott, who had not returned from his
jaunt after players, the team was yes
terday in charge of Mr. Brooks. He
had Intended playing right Held In or
ier to give Pitcher Horner the rest
which seems due him, considering his
regulur position on the team, but
Horner was put in the game and ac
cepted successfully the two high flies
which came his way. Mr. Brooks's
name appeared In the score-card bat
ting order.
Scranton was first at bat and Latham
opened with a sizzling ground hit
which was too hot for Smith to field
Hutchinson sent a grounder to Earl,
wno assisted to McMahon in time to
out Latham and the ball was returned
to Earl quick enough to make Hutch

play. Meaney was thrown out at first,
I.yttle went at Harper in a fashion
which looked ominous. He rapped

third on Lezotte' nut from Harper to
Ward, but the ticklish period ended on
a high foul to Ward and a fly to Horner.

Earl and Smith started a double steal.
Rufferty threw high over Latham and
Earl scored. A high foul to Rafterty
and a fly to Meaney ended the Inning.
Score 1-1.
Third Inning Horner fanned, Lath
am had the third strike called on him
and Hutchinson was put out trying to
steal second after reaching first on a
hit. With two out Belts singled and
reached second on a passed ball. Bon
ner flew out to Ward.
Fourth Inning Meaney struck out
and Ward singled, but Eagan Hew out
to Betta and Rafferty fouled out. Earl
singled and stole second. Smith went
out from Magulre to Ward and Earl
reached third on McMahon's out on
Harper's assist. Wer.te hit a long high
one which Eagan gathered In on foul
territory after a long, hard run. .
Fifth Inning Magulre singled and
Harper bunted saf ly. Each advanced
bag on Horner's sacrifice and both
scored on Iatham's hard line drive to
right center. Latham tried to make
wo bases on the hit and was out on
Lesotte's assist. Hutch fouled out to
Smith. Three Wilkes-Barrean's failed
to reach first. Score 3-1.
THREE UNEARNED- RUNS.
Sixth inning With Meaney disposed
of at first Ward singled and went to
second on Bett's muff of Eagan's fly.
Rafferty flew' out to Lezotte. Magulre
hit a liner to Leiotte which bounded
through him to the fence, allowing
Ward and Eagan to score and Magulre
to make the circuit with a foot or two
to spare. Harper flew out to Bonner.
Betts was retired at first and Bonner
ingled to right. Earl smashed one to
ward Meaney which seemed destined
for the Susquehanna river but Patrick
captured It. The catch was a beaut
and deserved the applause which fol
lowed. Smith drew the only base on
balls In the whole game. McMahon
flew out to Eagan. Score 6-1.
Seventh Inning Two fly-outs and a
grounder to Earl disposed of Horner,
Latham and Hutch. Only three Alliga
tors faced Harper, an outfield and In
field fly and an assist to first doing the
business.
Eighth Inning Meaney hit a pretty
liner to left, went to second on Ward's
sacrifice and crossed the plate on
Eagan's double to left. Rafferty's out
at first sent Pete to third but Magulre
flew out to Betts. With one out Ma
gulre made a good one-hand stop of
Betts' bouncer, but could not recover
In time to field it successfully. It was
not a costly hit, for Bonner fouled to
Ward and Earl flew out to right. Score
7-1.
FINAL DOUBLE PLAT.
Ninth Inning Harper and Horner
flew out and Latham reached first on
McMahon's error but made a failure of
an attempt to steal. Smith singled to
right.' McMahon flew out to Meaney.
Wente hit a high foul back of third
and Latham pulled it In. Smith tried
to make second on the out but failed
by an eye-lash.

The champion won from Pittsburg
the sixth consecutive game of the
season. It was bitterly contested
throughout, the umpires and player
being Involved In wrangles from start
to finish. The flnt five runs scored by
the Brooklyn were sent In by Corcor
an, who hit safely each time he toed
the plate. Philadelphia turned the
table on Cincinnati and managed to
win one game of the series. The Quak
era fielded without an error and batted
when hit wero needed.' At Washing'

between Mercer and Young with the
honor about even. In the ninth in

LIVELY COLLEGE GAME.
Following are the batting and fielding
averages of 'the Eastern league players
to June. The figures are from the Sy
racuse Courier and were compiled from
United Press scores.
Jake Draul.y, the Providence first
baseman, heads the batting list and Is
followed by Stahl, of Buffalo, and Joe
Knight, of Providence. Howard
I.ucki y. the young Wllkes-Barre pitch
er, is fourth, but as he only took part
In eight gamed, his average may not
be expect fed to last long.
Eddie Rafteity, Scrantcn'a catcher,
ranks fifth; Ward is tenth: Chiles is
fourteenth, and Kapan is twenty-first
out of the 106 players.
Drauby's average of .420 in 27 games
Is remnrl.able. There have been aver
ages as large In a half a dozen games,
but rarely as a piayer stood so well up
for a month's continuous play, it one
could figure from total bases he would
be better than 1,000.

Scrantonians yesterday had an op
portunity of seeing a real collegiate
game of base ball, but despite the fact
that the opposing teams, Georgetown
and Cornell, are among the most nota
ble, and that the weather man was sim
ply delightful, only about 700 persons
were In attendance.
These 700, however, made up In In
terest and enthusiasm for the poverty
of numbers. Three-fourths of the au
dience was composed of close adherents
of the two universities, and they lot
no occasion pass to show that they were
still In touch with alma mater. They
all wore color, the crimson and white
of Cornell, or the blue and gray of
Georgetown, and throughout the game
there was an Incessant alteration
of "Hoia - Hola - Saxa - Hola - Hoia -
deorgetown-Hola," or the war whoop
of the Ithacans, "Cornell-Cornell-I-
yell-I-yell-Cornell." A goodly portion
of the attendants came to the game In
carriages, which, with their decorations
and decorated occupants, added addi
tional college flavor to the ' secene.
There were also many out of town peo
pie present, Plttston, Wllkes-Barre
and Carbondale each sending delega
tions of alumni or friends of the under
graduates.
SOME OLD-TIMERS.
Among the spectators were Rev'.
John J. Healey, of Pleasant Mount, and
M. P. McCann, of this city, who com
prised the Georgetown battery in the
latter part of the '80's; Dr. Robert F.
Carmody, of Towanda, who was one
of Georgetown's pitchers last year, and
Attorney John J. Murphy, of this city,
who held down third bag for the blue
and gray last year.
The Georgetown adherents bad
great number of opportunities for
yelling, as the southerners had the bst
of It by a slight margin all through the
game, winning finally by a score of
8 to G. It was close and exciting to the
very finish, and although It was a live
ly, well-played game. It lacked In a de
gree the snap and dash that are char
acterlstlc of college games. The men
were as lively though as could be ex
pected under the circumstances. Both
have been on long Journeys and are .lust
winding up their annual tours. George
town' team did not arrive In the city
until 3 o'clock, and In consequence of
this and a break down to their bus on
the way to the grounds It was after
o'clock when they reached the grounds.
Only a few minutes were given to
warming up and at 4.15 Umpire Beatty
Williams, of Princeton, called the
game, Cornell going to the bat.
TWO STAR PITCHERS.
Much of the Interest In the game
centered in the two pitchers, Mahoney
and Young, both of whom have won
big reputations on the college diamond.
Mahoney stands, six feet, four Inches,
weighs 210 pounds and Is an all round
athlete, being one of the four members
of the Georgetown relay team which
has as Its leading man Wefers, the
world's champion sprinter. Mahoney
is a heady pitcher and has terrific
speed, but owing to the fact that his
catcher this year is not heavy enough
to stand a constant cannonading, he
has to rely in a great measure upon
his wide curves and change of pace.
Young, the Cornell twirler, Is as small
as Mahoney Is big, but he has a great
left wing and good head. After pitching
against the University of Pennsyl
vania the day before, making eleven
strike-outs, he had no hesitancy in
going into the box again yesterday and
remarkable to state the longer he
pitched the stronger he seemed to get.
He led his team in batting, neldlngfault
lessly and Is the boldest and best thief
seen on the Scranton diamond In many
a day, one of his feats being the theft
of second, third and home on hard
chances.

In fielding the only Scranton players
nt or near the head if the averages la
their positions were Dietrlck and Flack.
IMetrick played but 11 games and leads
the third baseman, while Flack, who
was released lant week, was sixth
among 27 fielders, Eagan Is last In the
list of outfielders, which Is traceable
to his rlaying with a badly crippled
hand while on the last trip.

BASE BALL GOSSIP.
Scranton has secured two new players.
Catcher Berger, who was with Rochester
last year, and "Sandy" Griffin, the
Wllkes-Barre outfielder. The Griffin deal
was thought to have been closed Tuesday,
but the Wllkes-Barre directors would not
confirm the sale which was made by
Manager Chapman until yesterday after
noon. Griffin will play with Scranton
against his old mates at Athletic park this
aiternoon.
II II II
Berger has not been playing steadily
this season. Negotiations were made
with him by the Scranton owners during
Manager McDermott's trip. McDermott
could have signed Berger during the
club s series at Springfield and Providence.
ms neming percentage rank last year
was seventn among fourteen averages; he
hit .288. The signing of Berger is timely,
as Rafferty has rounded into solendld
form and is entitled to occasional relief
and rest, something ho tins not been able
to get until now. Rafferty will bs the
nrat ana regular team catcher.
