served the Second.
Scranton and Buffalo split even In the
two game played Saturday afternoon.
Each gume was won by a run and the
second lusted ten innings. It is a pecu
liar fact that each club deserved to win
the game It lost; Buffalo should huve
Won the first and Scranton the second
but the result was vice versa. The lust
game was not Mulshed until lieurly 7
o'clock und before It was over, more
thun 2,000 persons were present.
Scranton' pitchers, Johnson and
brown, by their work supplied the real
features of the duy. Brown took C'or
bett' place In the second game after
the latter hud been hit for four runs
in the second inning.
To Juhnson belongs the credit for
pitching Scranton to victory in the first
game when nine errors were mude be
hind him, und all of Buffalo' runs
Were unearned. Klester'a four und Ma
g Hire's two error gave the visitors
their six runs.
HUFFAIjO PROTESTS.
Scranton got three tallies and the one
run necessary to win In the ninth In
ning. The bases filled on Bowerman's
force hit. Ward's double, after Urliiin
had fanned, and O'Brien's walk. Bow
erman and Ward came in on a passed
. bull. Buffalo prpested Doescher's de
cision In allowing the scores, declurlng
that Bow erman had blocked Smith's
. throw and that Ward had pushed Gan
non at the plate. O'Brien got in the
winning run on Klester'a hit over third.

in the eighth inning gave the Albuuluns
two runs and saved them from a shut out.
The feature wus Belts' line work In cen
ter, he having six difficult chunces and
accepted them all.. The second game was
hotly contested on both sides. The vis

Chris Von der Ha! Ha!, was stricken

and burnt up the black book containing
his list of fines against his players.
Scranton tomorrow will begin a aeries of
awuy-froni-home engagements that will
last until Aug. 13. playing three games
each at Buffalo, Albany. Rochester and
Syracuse, in the order named. The first
game will be tomorrow, the club leaving
here on tonight's 1 o'clock train.
Seymour pitched both games for Spring
field analnut Syracuse Saturday und gave
the Stars but ten hits. The clubs split
even, though, because Mason was the
more effective In the first game and gave
but three hits aguinst Seymour' six.
"Bull players should weur their trousen
us short as possible. A player whose pan
taloon bottoms reach below his knees get
the woist of It from the umpire on low
bulls; for a low ball Is gauged according
to the low water mark of the batsman's
trousers." says Captain Joyce.
Delehanty's butting streak at Chicago
Is described as follows: The first time up
"Dell" caught the fiiTit pitched ball with
an easy swing and flouted It over Into the
field seats below the' bulletin bourd. In
the third inning he overreached on a shoot
and the best he could do was to drive the
bull to Terry so fast thut the pitcher could
only put u hand out und make it carom
Into the field. After that he went to but
ting. In the fifth, with two men on the
bugs he smashed the sphere out over the
bulletin board. It fell . In a flock of
chickens across the road, and while yet
rolling it wus picked up by a small boy,
who run seven blocks before being cap
tured by a policeman, thus giving "Di-ll"
the record for the longest hit ever mude.
In the seventh he found a r.peedy straight
ball und sent It bounding over the all
waves aguinst the door of the club house.
In the ninth he made the record. Lunge
plaved back of his position fifty feet and
"Dell" was not to be denied. He sent the
bull on u line ten feet ubove the ground
and so hard wus it hit that it did not fall
totrurth until It had nearly reached the
club house. It rolled behind the bulld.lng
and "Del" had circulated the square before
Lunge got the bull. Then the crowd,
which hud been cheering him through the
entire gume, stood up and gave him an
ovation, which they could well afford, as
the tjuakers had lost despite his fearful
cannonading.
AMATEUR BALL NOTES.
The Scranton Juniors opened their sea
son yesterday by defeating the South Side
Beds by a score or to 5. The feature of
the gume wus the greut buttery work of
Da vies and Sullivan, or the Juniors: also
the great base stealing or Cutnmlngs. The
battery for the Keds wus Moran and

One of the most Interesting and exciting
games on the new Minooka grounds wus
that of yesterday afternoon between the
home team und the Morning Glories of
Dunmore. O'Nell. Mlnooku's crack south

and twirled u phenomenal game, keeping
the Glories at his mercy from start to fin
ish, only four hits being secured oft hi
delivery. Cuwley, the visitor's twlrler,
was hit freely, but his support was good.

Greensburg, Pa., July 26. The sound

It "lawful money or the United State."

BICYCLE NEWS
AND COMMENT
Pertinent Facts 0. Interest to Riders ol
the Bike.
SECRET OF PACE-MAKING IS TOLD
Why "Sent" and "Quad" Are Bet
ter Pacers Than Single and Why
' the Pacer 1 Always BeatenRoad
Book or the Pennsylvania Division
of the L. A. W. I Free.
Pace making Is one of the curious
things about bicycle racing which Is un
derstood only by those who follow the
business. It doestiot seem that a man
running along ahead should be ol) much
assistance, but In all contests whether
it be anions horses or men It has been
found that the one who makes the run
ning usually is beaten at the end. Why
this Is true has never been satisfac
torily explained, but every one ac
knowledges the fact.
To follow single puce Is more difficult
and harder work than to follow tan
dem and so on, the sextette being the
Ideal pace. Men who have "tacked"
on to all sorts of machine and for th
purpose of trying to figure out the mys
tery of pace, claim that single pace
simply urges a man on and enables
him to keep the same gait. He is saved
the brain work of working about the
gait he is going, as that I left to the
pace-maker. A copy is set for htm and
all his faculties are centered on that
ropy. Behind a tandem the rider no
tice that In one certain spot, where the
atmosphere Is cut open for htm, the
wheel runs easier.' He keeps in thut
spot and foiluws closely.
The q.uad does most of the work for
the one who follows and at times the
single rider feels us if he were going
at a 10-seconds faster gain than behind
single pace.
The sextette, according to those who
have, had experience, does the entire
work for the single, except moving the
rider's legs. It not only removes the
air pressure but creates u vucum by
which the slnele rider is pulled along.
On either side of a certain path which
Is directly on the wake of the six-seatcr
the wind Whistles past while the sin
gle Is protected and sheltered. "Just
keep In that path and make th leg
go up and down" is the instruction
given, "the sext does the rest."
The fact that the vacation season is
at hand is responsible for many of the
applications which go to Increase tli
large list received weekly by the League
of American Wheelmen. While the or
ganization Is one which every rider of it
wheel should feel It u duty to support
there are many who do not feel th:
necessity of putting in an. application
until the opportunity of deriving im
mediate personal benefits becomes ap
parent. The benefits of membership
continue all through the yeur. both di
rectly and Indirectly, but to the cycler
who proposes taking even a short tour
the card certifying that he is a mem
ber is absolutely indispensable.
The road book published by the
Pennsylvania division and furnished
free of charge to every member show
all the routes throughout the entire
state und neighboring states, as well
as giving principal routes all through
the country, gives information regard
ing the. condition of the roads and the
grades from point to point, also all if
the principal hotels in each town at
which special ra'tes are given to League
members, and a list of repair shops and
local consuls In each place, who are
always willing and glad to give In
formation to touring wheelmen upon
presentation of their credentials. In
this one matter alone the organization
benefits the member many time over
the trilling cost of $1 per annum, which
covers the entire expense; this of coursa
being possible only because the League

cost of membership In a single day In
the reductions secured upon presenta

hotels on the route traveled, and the
fact that there Is an official In each
town ready to give information In case
of the necessity for such, or to render
assistance in case of uccldent. Tip)

awheel withovt an L. A. V. card In

easy a one to travel as he who has
taken this precaution. Applications for
