College Boys Whipped.
The game of ball yesterday at Alum
ni park was altogether too much one
Bided to make it Interesting. The col
lege boys had not played together be
fore, find while It Is composed of good
individual players, there was a painful
lack of team work. The Alumni team
put up a great game, not making an
error. - Vundermark pitched in good
form and kept the college ladu guess
ing. Gears and Walsh pitched good
ball, but thoy showed lack of practice
since they commenced their vacations.
' Mr. VVIiiting Itceiglis.
C. W. Whitlnp, who has Wn super
intendent at Van Itergan & Co.'s works
for the last year, has severed his con
nections with the firm. Mr. Whiting
had some time ago received several
flatterlni; offers, and has been consid
ering the matter for some time. He
finally concluded to accept one of the
offers, probably the one from the Phoe
nix Uridgc works. This will cause his
removal from the place, which Is
greatly to be regretted.
Attempt nt ltobbcry.
An attempt was made Tuesday even
ing to enter the Bennett house on Bel
mont' Streo!, but the burglar made such
a noise that the Inmates of llv? house
were arousm!. The noise awakened
Mrs. Bennett, and on looking out a
man was seen In the yard. As soon as
discovered he made off and although
Mrs. Bennett's sou pursued, was lost in
the darkness.
Contaminated Water.
Tt would be well If the board of health
would make an Inspection of the water
supplies of the city. Along the creek
which supplies the western part of the
city with water, several residents
Jound a dead- calf In a badly decom
posed condition. The water could
hardly help being contaminated and a
terrible disease may be caused to rage
unless steps are taken at once to see
that the body of the calf is removed.

e When you think about our shoe store just remember three things. First, the marvelous growth of our shoe busi
ness in the face of active competition, is due to the brains and the capital invested, united with methods that command
ing the respect of our public, has created an ever increasing constituency. Second, every day bur shoe store grows in
popular favor, grows more crowded, too. We don't sell shoes for looks aud not for wear, or shoes for wear and not for
looks. It is just as easy to combine the two and do it cheaply, with our usual enterprise and determination to make our
shoe store the most popular one in Scranton. Third, if this thing be true, our shoe news has a particular claim upon
your attention. r
