TEAM WAS HOODOOED.
"Scrappy Hill" Kelnles Stiangc
pcrieures of Ike Washington.
"Scrappy Bill Joyce, who is now
with the NpW' Yorks, but who captained
the luckless YVashlnglons through the
early part of the campaign, says that
the senatorial team has been deeply
and hopelessly hoodooed.
"We became convinced of this fact."
Joyce declares, "many moons ago, but
we cotiktn t locate tne source of me
hoodoo to save our lives. Finally I
went to m clairvoyant, taking Me-
luire and Mercer along. The medium
told us that the hoodoo was fins
Schmelz's whiskers, and that the only
way in which It couM be removed was
to steal a lock of those whiskers while
f lits slept and burn the prize under the
home plate at midnight. So that same
night we did a cat crawl on (lus while
he slumbered, clipped off enough whis
kers to stuff a pillow and did with them
as the umpire I mean the clairvoyant
hnd directed us to do so. And Hie
Phlladelphlas came ulong and beat us.
'It was evident that there was some
thing wrong, mid so we went toinother
clairvoyant. This one told us that the
hoodoo could only be broken when the
entire team had rubbed the hump of a
humpback, mid that the latter must
not know that the boys were using
him for a mascot. Link seemed to
turn our way that night, for there was
a hunchback waiting on us at the bar
of the hotel. We got him from behind
the ha' to tell some stories and every
man would then tell him a story, wind
ing tin when the joke was sprung by
slapping him on the. humo. It work
ed beautifully until the Inst mun of thp
team MeHuire was due for a story.
and he was In such a hurry that he
slapped the humo first. That nut the
hunchback onto our game, and he stood
off and used bad languages at us for 11
minutes. And that spoiled the charm
I and the Paltlmores beat us three
I straight."
! Joyce tells strange tales of his earlier
' games in far off Texus. whole he spent
; a season back In 1nS. He swears that
wiien the populace ( the Texas towns
saw a fly ball about to settle into the
hands of a hostile outfielder at any crit
leal stage of the game they would
draw- their revolvers and shoot the
ball
dis-
so full of lead that it would lie
semlnatcd to the four winds. On the
other hand, if a fly seemed about to es
cape otie of the home fielders they would
shoot just enough lead Into It to stop
It and make it fall straight on the
earth.
He also claims that at Dallas there
was a movable fence in the field and
that when the opposition knocked a
ball into the outer desert the fence
would be moved In to stop it and bounce
It back to the home fielders, while If
one of the home club hit It the fence
would be swung open to let the ball
through, and then closed tight on the
hostile fielder.
TIM KEEFE COMING.

Will Replace Herman Doesther
on the Eastern League Staff
of Umpires.
Tim Keefe, the ex-N'alionnl League
umpire, and once the star pitcher of the
Xew York Giants, will umpire in Scran
ton this afternoon. He has been en
gaged to succeed Herman Doescher,
who has been dropped from the staff.
Doescher's retirement was due to his
action in awarding the Providence
Rochester game on Wednesday to the
former, following complaints and pro
tests against him from several clubs,
lioeseher awarded the game to Provi
dence after the Hochester players left
the field after the seventh Inning. It
was then (i.40 o'clock. Manager Shan
non had purchased passage and sale
room accommodations on the . boat
which leaves Providence at 7.45 o'clock
for New York city.
Although Shannon claims that he and
Manager Murray had an understanding
that the game should not last more
than seven Innings. Murray Insisted
that the whole nine innings be played.
The score was 5-3 In Rochester's favor.
Murray argued that the Rochester club
could take tlie 1 o'clock morning train
for New York city and Scranton. Two
games were played that afternoon; the
second wus not started until 5 o'clock.
Shannon wus willing to allow the
League direc tors to settle It. and left
the grounds with the understanding
thai lioeseher would reset ve his decis
ion. The ton pile, after the Rochester
players had entered their bus, an.
flounced that the game had been for
tlelled to Providence by the score of
SO,
DIAMOND DUST.
Kaston will pitch for Rochester.
Johnson will go in the box again today.
There will probably he two games with
Rochester tomorrow afternoon.
Kill Alassey lias made eight hits out of
nine times at bat In the last two games,
an average of .SMI.
The Canucks have now had trouble with
every umpire In the league except Tim
Keefe, but Tim doesn't make his bow until
today.
Kagan's home run hit would not have
been good for more than two bases if the
ball had not lost Itself in the tall grass
near the left line.
It is possible that Alaiuger Hrillin will
go Into the game today In place of Meu
ney, I'sually reliable, Aleaney has fallen
away recently in his hitting. A rest ror a
few days would probably put Aleaney In
better trim.
The Philadelphia Bulletin says of the
Syracuse convention of the Kastern
league sporting writers: "Aside from the
good fellowship which the meeting would
promote, the plan Is a good thing and de
serves pushing. A national convention of
this kind would help the game Immense
ly." (laffney has received instructions to re
main in Scranton. This was not expected
on account of the bad feellnic between the
King and Jim Fields, the Buffalo captain,
whose club begins a series here today. If
Scissors-Lizzie Fields anticipates having
ary further trouble with Oaffney we
would advise the player to try It on In
some other neck o' woods than Scranton.
He might get badly hurt. For Jim's
sake, some kind friend should make him
be good. Scranton Tribune.
The above paragraph Is a sample of
some of the sporting items which are
traveling nboul the Kustern league news
papers and shows how the rest of the
cities regard Buffalo and Its players. For
downright meanness the above takes the
prize, lor the threat against the safety of
Jim Fields and his comrades Is not even
veiled. Scranton Is noted among the
league clubs ns having the worst gang of
thugs and rowdies among Its patrons of
any city in the Kastern lengue. The lan
guage they use Is vile and their hatred ts
Intense. Scranton players were always
well treated III Buffalo, as everyone of
them will testify, still Ihugs are not bud
enough In the Pennsylvania town but a
newspaper w riter must Incite them to vio

he wants to be. but there's the rub, he
don't "want to be" with Buffalo, although
If Scrnntun telegrams could be believed

But we know Oaffney too well for that.

Knquirer.
For the enlightenment of the esteemed
Enquirer man we will reiterate each mu
tlmeiit contained In the paragraph he
takes exception to, but with a tittle ex.
planation. V like Jim Fields, personally
and professionally, but his aggressive
ness has made him very unpopular with
the bleachei ilea. They. In Scrunton, are
not the most gentle creatures in the world
and might possibly have made no end of
trouble If Jamsey had displayed nts cus
tomary vigor la arguing w- Oaffney,
becauso the umpire until he queered him
self Alonday had been the apple of the
bleachers' eye. The Tribune paragraph
was a note of warning honestly made.
and someone must have told Jim a thing
or two, for throughout the series he had
little or nothing to say, and tilings moved
swimmingly. A for the Enquirer's alle
gation that there was an unveiled "threat
in The Tribune's paragraph we are will
ing to let the paragraph speak for itself.
The Buffalo players are too well known
and too well liked In Scranton to ever
have any fears for their "safety." 1 he
Enquirer man does not display his usual
fairness when he speaks of gangs of
thugs and rowdies attending the games
here. Nor Is it true that Scranton audi
nees use vile language. Neither objec
tionable persons nor objectionable lull
guage Is permitted on the Scranton
grounds. Certainly The Trlbuue can hope
for no better ireatment of the Scranton
club abroad than the treatment always
afforded Fields and his comrades
Scranton. We trust that the Knquirer
man will receive this In the same honest
spirit in which It Is written. He must do
so If he believes the testimony of nearly
every ball player In the league that they
would rather play in Scranton than in
any other city in the league. Rochester
and Buffalo, possibly, excepted.
