BASE BALL SCORING.
Some of the Different Ways Writers
Construe Ambiguous Rules Scor
ing Times at Bat.
The present state of tho scoring rulea
of the National League is well known
by an incident in the lively life of N. R.
Young, president of the big league,
writes President Baker, of the new
League of Eastern Sortlnff writers In
the Syracuse Courier of which paper
he is sporting editor. He found early
In the season that many baseball edi
tors were not scoring a sacrifice hit a
a time at. bat. He read the rules care
fully, to be sure, and promulgated offi
cially that the A. 14. column must con
tain tho times at bat when rlUo hits
were made; there was no provision In
the scoring rules for doing otherwise.
Three reporters got back letters in the
next mall, remarking that while the
scoring rules were not stated, In the
playing rules was explicit provision
that sacrifice hits should not so count.
And the reporters used their option in
following the playing rules, as they have
a right to do.
The real significance of the work done
by the newspaper men in convention in
this city. Tuesday Is perhaps not fully
appreciated. The attendanca was not
large, but it was representative, and
those men who, because of the tour
nament at Springfield, could not be
present, have endorsed the advance
work of the Reporters' League. When
the committee of which Mr. Kirby of
Providence is chairman shall have
completed the work left to it, it Is safe
to prophesy that the sporting editor of
every dally paper In every city of the
Ka stern League will set his signature
under this report In endorsement of it.
H. O. Merrill. P. 8. Ridsdale, or Wilkes
Barre, I K. Sanborn, of Springfield, Mr.
Lyons of Buffalo, F. H. Elmore of
Toronto, A. T. Raynsford of Scranton
are among those who were unable to
be present at the meeting, but who will
gh e their best endeavora to the futher-
ance of he lague's crusade for adequate
scoring rules.
THE NATIONAL WRITERS.
A permanent organisation of Eastern
Ieugue sporting editors has been form
ed which will Include newspaper men
of every city of the league. This league
can apply to the National rules com
mittee with the confidence that its re
quests will be heard. If the National
League sporting writers accept the
proiHisitiou of the Eastern League com
mittee to Join in this appeal to the Na
tional committee as Boston and Phila
delphia papers recommend they shall
do, and as President Powers says every
"New York man stands ready to do
there is assurnuce that the demands of
the newspaper men will not only be
considered, but acceded to In detail.
The Eastern League committee appre
ciates that the power of amending the
scoring rules rests with the National
committee, but they claim to them
selves the right to interpret those rules
and where the rules neglect to deline
anything but hits and errors accurate
ly, interpretation Is important, rather.
The Eastern League committee will
In an address to the National commit
tee tell them of the action already
taken, ask their attention to the rules
proposed to be adopted, and ask them
to accept those rules or to adopt a new
code of rules themselves as full and
explicit as the playing rules. A meet
ing of the Writers' League will be held
before the National and Eastern Bu se
Ball Leagues' meeting, at which the
committee's report will be considered,
amended and adopted, and when tne
report on new rules goes before the Na
tional body. It will go endorsed 'by the
convention of Eastern League Sport
ing writers and by a mall vote by East
ern League sporting reporters who
cannot be present. In the event of con
tinued sleep of the National body, the
rules will be declared the otticlal rules
of the Eastern League and will be in
corporated In the guides as such. And
each member of the league formed
Tuesday has agreed in becoming a
member to accept those rules as official.
President Powers endorses the action
of the convention In Its entirety.
DIAMOND DUST.
Providence plays here today.
Johnson or Kroun will pitch this after
noon. ,
Baltimore fans are offering 3 to 2 that
Jennings wlnB the batting championship.
Of the twelve games played between
Providence and Scranton each club has
won six.
Earl Wagner says: "Mr. Schmels will
continue through another season as the
manager of the team."
"I haven't made much of a record for
myself this season, but I lead the pitchers
of the league In warming up," says Al
Maul.
Scranton and Wilkes-Barre have each
won eight of the sixteen games between
them. That Is the official record, but one
I of the victories credited to Wilkes-Barre
was a forfeitetl guine.
I Kuntzsch has released Raymond for dis
sipation. Harry Raymond's right nntue
is Truman and he originally hulled from
Utica, although he now calls Louisville
his home. He began ball playing in the
Texas league some ten years ago with
Ehret and "Buck" Weaver.
John O'Neill, of Mlnooka, who Is catch.
Ing for the Sidn.y team In the New York
Slate league, was presented with a gold
watch and chain last Saturday by his ad
mirers in that town. His playing ainca
he Joined the team In June has been with
out an error and he can be relied upon for
a hit when one is needed. The season
closes next Saturday and he will reach
Scranton Monday afternoon.
Charley Snyder, the umpire whose off
ish work roused his dismissal from the
Eastern league staff last season, Is achiev
ing quite a record as a sprinter. Twice
during July he made an exit from a West
ern league dlamoud with an Inflammable
mob of rooters In the wake, and last week
on the Kansas City diamond he ran first
in a sprinting event with a vigilance com
mittee of fans, lu second place, well
bunched, and close up. But Charley will
Insist on umpiring.
The Scranton papers are making a big
howl because a bieacherite became of
fensively profane during the Wllkes-Barro-Scranton
game at Athletic park on Fri
day. The real fact of the matter is that
the foul mouthed rooter came down with
the Scranton delegation and came within
an ace nf being thrown off a trolley car
on the way over for using the filthiest
kind of language In the presence of a half
dozen ladies seated near him. Wilkes
Barre enthusiasts do not have to be called
down by the umpire, and It is only when
there is a sprinkling of Scranton hood
lums on the seats that any such action
Is necessary. Wilkes-Barre Times. It
doea not matter whether the hoodlums re
ferred to reside In Scranton or Wilkes
Barre. The fact remains that the bleach
er it e9 performed in a disgusting manner
that would not be tolerated in Scranton.
It is not surprising however. In view of
the fact that the Wilkes-Barre magnates
generally take the lead 1n roasting play
ers from the grand stand, ttmt the hood
lum element should go unrestrained. The
license allowed the tough element at the
Wilkes-Barre ball games is of the kind
that Is calculated to bring base ball to the
level of a tenth-rate slugging match that
Is witnessed by "gents" in a barn or stump
lot In some secluded spot far from the
haunts of civilised humanity.

There will be an all-day shoot at the

commences at 10 30. Each man will

ANSON ON MITTS.
Talks Interestingly About -Sllfer" Pilot
and Otber Ex-StaraSays
Catching Is Easy.
"Anson." said a Washington crank, "I
saw you catch yesterday. I don't see
how an old man like you can do It."
"I'm no old man," answered Ajuko.
"Besides it's no trick .to eaUib a ball."
"But you have been catching now for
a week or more.
"Longer'n that all my life," Anson re
plied. "I've never don anything else.
Though I've caught other things. It's
my business to catch balls. I put no
store by my actions the last week.
Donohue has a bad finger, Kittridg
he' a bad arm, and it looks as if I would
have to tie myself to that wind pad
pretty often before he end of the sea
son." "Does it hurt you?"
'Hurt? No. My hands are like Har
veylzed armor. The work of a backstop
In these days Is a snap, anyway, com
pared with tho Job of catchers whan 1
started in. Think of old 'Silvar Flint.
'Silver's' hands were battered into so
many angles that when spread out they
resembled pretzels. In viewing his
bread-winners, you were as confused In
locating the fingers as a country cousin
is In finding his way through the c ex
torter FtreeU of Boston, where we've
Just been. 'Buyer's' hands were one of
the sights the sporting fraternity sought
when visiting Chicago.
"Where were his mitts?" the fan
asked.
"His mitts!" said Anson. "Well, bis
mitts were not born. Tou must remem
ber we didn't wear mitts in the early
days of the game. I've seen a man,
catch balls until hla hands were black
and blue clean through. Even the
hairs 011 the backs here were blue,
too. They would begin to get blue at the
roots, and each time you caught a hot
drive they would get blue a little farther
up."
"Just the same, I believe the game
ought to bo played without gloves,"
chipped In "Tim" Donohue, who was
sitting near, nursing his sore finger.
"I don't," said Anson. "What's the
use of taking punishment when you
can just as well avoid it? There were
no masks or pads In Flint's early days
as a backstop. We used to wear little
gloves 011 both hands with the fingers
clipped off. I remember I wore them
when I did my first catching. But they
were of little use. I knew then that
the game would be Improved In a me
chanical way by the introduction of ap
pliances, such as masks and gloves as
they now exist. 1 got myself laughed
at once for predicting that the time
would come when catchers would be
protected by gloves, musks and pads."
"When did the masks come In?"
"11I1. after the gloves," said Anson.
"The hurl was worst 011 the hands, and
so they were looked after first. 1 re
member catching often and never
thinking of a mask. We used to wear
a piece of rubber hooked In our mouths
to protect our teeth. The idea was to
prevent us from becoming toothless be
fore tiur time. This piece of rubber
was Invented by a chap In Boston. The
scheme was to insert the rubber In the
mouth on advancing to the position be
hind the batsman. The inventor
thought It would resist the force of the
blow In case the ball hit the catcher In
the mouth. They weren't thinking of
our eyes and noses. We were supposed
to save them by dodging. The rubber
was an awkward thing and not a suc
cess. Shortly after it was placed on
the market I read In the Chicago pap
ers of a lad catching In an amateur
team who was almost choked to death
with one nf those rubbers. A foul
caught him full on the rubber and
rammed It down his throat."
