0 THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE TUESDAY MOENING, SEPTEMBER 29, 1896. BALTIMORE GOT A BIG SURPRISE Scraoloo'g Scrub Base Ball Team Was Not Very Easy. IIP AGAINST "TOMMY" JOHNSON The t at Round Twirlrr Dished Out n Few of IUh lleservc Mock ol'l'boice t lines-. :l,.'i(M iVrsous Saw the Orioles W iu by Two Kuii0.cill Signed by Soriiulon. It was a question whether "Hughpy JiiiiIhks r th- base ball same anil Its ittlfiukint feature was or were "ze wan wuntle uffulre" yesterday. It makes mi ilinVrenre, anyhow, from the standpoint tit the real crank, who looked at the thing from solely a Ituse Lull point of view. The Orioles won hy the score of 4-2. but they hail ti do (tome lively liunipInK to save their reputations. Ordinarily, a base ball Rome Is that find not bint; else, but yesterday It was .titteieiit. It was a sort of biK rlrcus, :i luir crowd, a division of gate re-n-ipls uinontt the players, a presenta tion of boiiiiiets and a costly sc arf pin tn- pin was jjiven to "lluKhey." of i 'nurse- and a baiuitiettln? tiflair at Avca us a wind-ill In the eveninir. The wind-up was on "lliiKhpy's" nc ioliiiI also. Hut in all the hurley bur ! y of everything Haltiinoreun, some thing of tlie Illinois fell 'to the lot of "Tommy" Johnson, Sir.inlon. and the tcuin of picked professionals who camp rltirlntr tlie winter in these iartlcular M ods. Tin-re were nearly 3,!iHl persons at tin- is lime and these included nearly l.iiiw I loin Mooslc, Avoca and other m-ailiy localities. These admirers of tlie (."ii-Hl shorlutop begun arrivlnir In tl riiy about 1 o'clock. They Includ ed men. women and children, and Ihey itlilii't stop in shop, lulk or drink until they iviii hed the park Bates. Ten aX tru trolley cars were sent down the valley to briiitf the crowd up, but the b n cars were wholly inadequate to au i'..ionii.d.ite the trallic. Every car that arrived from Avoca and vicinity bore a very striking resemblance to a barrel if brown siiKar in hot summer. Only the trolley poles were visible; the pas ."uifeis, many of them, seemed to be li.ini.rinu; on by teeth and eyelashes. liltKAT BLKACHER CROWD. The gates at the .park were opened at o'clock, und within an hour' each set of bleachers was full and the ;rund stand was nearly so, and before play was called the crowd had spread liself over the Inside fences, up to the li ft foul line and along the main fence on the right Held side. Those who came early saw what was really the best playing of the afternoon the warming up of the Orioles. Kven in National league cities when Hnltl inore is on the card the audience gath ers early to see the champions practice, to It was not surprising that a Hcranton crowd of spectators should go wild over It. The dashing, Hitting, fast and verilible acrobatic style of play occa sioned almost a continuous sound of uppl-iuse. During the twenty-five min utes of practice not a man of the whole nine was inactive or silent. To the less Informed student of the game It was a slsip and dash of players and ball, per formed so rapidly that it was diflicult lo separate the combination. i-'n It was in the game, but with the marked addition of the whole team Playing as one man, each encouraging the other, never the semblance of hesi tation or a misplay. It was all very ttcll illustrated why the three-time champions are Invincible. They Infus ed too a little of that kicking faculty i lint has heliied make them famous, hut stopped It after they got a lead of two runs In the fifth Inning. With Itiiblnson to "jolly" the umpire, the ln tie., with the exception of Keltz, to chime in with a concerted kick and the outfield ever ready to take a hand, it is no wonder Baltimore gets a little as sistance In that particular. Hut the audience rather liked It, Umpire Ket rh k won able to return a compliment or two und the.Hcranton players didn't care. JOHNSON WAS PITCHING. Meanwhile "Tommy" Johnson was pitching brilliant ball. Right hits were made off him, but two in the first In ning, when a run came In, were the scratchiest kind of fungo scratches, one was hit at Johnson too hard to lie handled and one was fielded clean ly by Dean but went too slowly to Hist. Kour were all the Orioles de served. Corbet t, who returned from Keranlon to Baltimore a month before the close of the Kustern league season, gave evidence of having recovered! his nerve und con t nil. He gave six hits. '1 luce more would have been charged iil against him but for two running latches by Hrudle and one by Keeler that would have caused sotnw of the btst hastem league fielders to turn black with envy, Broil ie showed his ability lo judge and get tinder longr tiles by catching them in practice with ids hands behind his Iku k while run ning in the Hume direction us that of the ball. Johnson was seriously handicapped by having behind him a team out of V Mi li only three, himself, Orlllln and Ward, had ever played together. How ever, the game they all played was mm It better than could have Is-eli Imped for. "Jimmy" Dean, In short Held, was the best surprise. One of bis two errors was on a dilllcult chance and the other was not the easiest In the world. Of his four accepted chuni'es two would have done credit to the only "llughey" and in addition he blocked a eedy grounder buck of sec ond. O'Neill,- the Mlnooka lad. after tlie ifuuie, was signed by Hcranton for next season. That fact sutllclently explains whether his work wa good or not. i 'oiisldeiing his limited experience he tlid better work than could have been expected of htm. Hairing Ida slowness .in throwing to bases there was nothltiK tu criticise, but there was enough alert loss and ginger in his style to indi cate that he will prove a. good backstop-. To pass comment on any one of the champions would include ull of them, though Jennings and itoblnson had the greater opportunity to work. THAT SCARF PIN. The scarf pin presented to .Tennlivgs wax an opal set In diamonds, and was handed him by Cmpire Kettrick when he came to bat In the Hist Inning. Tlie event broke up the game for about two minutes, during which the players gathered about the shortstop and em pire Kettrick made the announcement that the article had been "presented to Mr. Jennings by his admirers In .Mooslc and Avoca." Then the game proceeded and Jennings showed his ap preciation by scratching a two e fungo to short left. Shafer and Dean euch got a bouquet and Corbett found awaiting him at the hotel a box of FOOT BALL Dale Harvard. Oct. 3.. Williams at Cambridge Oct. 7.. Newton A.

Sci anion was first at bat. but a driver to left by Sharer, followed oy a double play with one already out. put a quick termination to the half. Bal timore was more fortunate. McGraw hit one to right center for three bases, the third ack being a gift by reason of the ball rolling beneath a pile of poles near the fence. Keeler popped a fungo over Dean's head and MeOraw scored. Keeler being out for trying to tuke a base too many. Then came Jennings' opal-pin hit. Keeley fouled out und Jennings was caught napping. Only six men faced Corbett in the second and third. With one out in the second Kelts' single was followed by a double play. In the third Dean's low throw to first, a force hit. a fly out to Ward nnd Keeler's single, which Dean did well to stop, placed two on the cir cuit, but Jennings was an easy out from Johnson to Tlghe. Doubles by Ward and Tlghe earned Scranton the run that tied the score in the fourth. After Ward's hit Shafer hit a driver to right that would have been safe but for Keeler's marvelous running catch. With Tighe on second. Grlftin got a walk. Smith gave them a life, but Dean was stopped at first. Baltimore's three in the fifth were on Dean's low throw to llrst. Robinson's triple, MH '.raw's single and two stolen bases and Jennings' single. DKAN'S T1IRRR-HAOOKR. Dean's three baser to left and Mill ion's fly to Keeler in the seventh earned Scranton's second and final run and the last run of the game. The sci ire : BCRANTf IN. A.M. It. II. P.O. A. K.

People Turned Out Kn .Masse to Honor Hughry nud Other Players, Every day the papers teem with ac counts of ovations to McKinley and Bryan, telling how thousands and thousands of people travel hundreds of miles und stay up of nights to see hear and show their appreciation of one or the other of these great men who are foremost in the public mind at present, but these affairs are as naught, in the matter of genuine, pure, unadulterated hlp-hlp-hooray, when compared to the reception given to "Hughey" Jennings and the Baltimore team by the people of Pleasant Valley last night. Avoca, the principal town of the val ley, was the scene of the event, and it is quite safe to say that In Its archives Monday, Sept. 28, 186, will ever be Its red-letter day, with letters a foot long. Kverybody was there, save the sick, halt and blind. They had come on two former occasions to do honor to their "Hughey," but this time they came and brought the babies because "Hughey's" colleagues were to be there, and they wanted to outdo their former efforts to show the other mem bers of the team what "Hughey's" neighbors thought of him. It Is put ting it light to say that they convinced the champions that they thought well of "Hughey." The "champs" con fessed they never saw anything like It, and they spoke the truth. The team went down on the 7.50 Delaware and Hudson train. All ac cepted the invitation with the excep tion of Manager Hanlon, who was in disposed and regretfully had to stay behind. They were in merry mood and were prone to guy Jennings about his native heath. THEY JOLLIED HUGHEY. He had. no doubt, regaled tlwm with stories and descriptions of the various places thereabout for ever and anon as the train sped onward, he would be ussailed with, "Tell us when we come to Mlldtown, Hughey." "Do we puss through "Stark's Patch?" or "I hope there wton't be a. freight car In the way to prevent us from seeing Mooslc," Hughey took it all good nat uredly, as It was meant, and content edly told them "Just wall and you'll see a town what is a town." At Mooslo a reception committee boarded the train and distributed but ton hole bouquets among the guests. A crowd whs at the station and lusty cheers were given for Jennings and the Baltimore. But It was when the train pulled Into Avoca that the cheering took place. Jennings led the way out of the train, and ns he apiieured on the plat form a yell went tip that must huve been heard over in Duryea. The orowd gathered around him am he stepped Prom the train and fairly carried him to the carriages. The Connellton band was there, tM. and they blew and drummed as they never blew und drummed before. Kverybody wore the Orioles' colors, orange a mi black. Orange is hardly a iHipular color In Pleasant Valley, but this was an occasion when "the feiist was greater than the fat." When the guests had been seated in the carriages and "Hughey" succeeded In getting his hand released for a mo ment, a procession was formed, with the band al the head, und the start made for O'Mulli y's hull. On the way up Main street, which wns lined with people, there was one. continued suc cession of cheers. When the team was going from the carriages into the hall there wus another seusou of concen trated yelling and again as they en tered the hull, which was pretty well tilled by those who were cute enough to forego the reception at the depot and a sight of the parade to get seat's in the hall, the cheering was renewed. ESCORTED TO THE STACK. When (he team had gotten Inside" the crowd followed and the hall rapidly filled up, until there wasn't room for another, standing or sitting. The team were escorted to the stage and sat around in minstrel style, with Jen nings occupying the central position. Near him sat his gray-haired father, the greatest base ball crank In the valley, his wrinkled face beaming with pride and pleasure. The pro gramme was opened by James Mc carty, chairman of the reception com SCHEDULES OF THE Yule. Brown ut New Haven Orange A.

In fact every thing was cheered. The crowd was there to cheer and cheer it did at every occasion. There was also a clever speech by Harry tl. Merrill, sporting editor of the Wtlkes-Rarrei Keocfd; vocal solos by Francis Mackln. of W likes-Barre; Misn Blanche Banlleld, of Duryea; Mls Sadie Doherty, of Dunmore: Edward Walsh, of the West Side; a duet by Messrs. Golden and Qulnn: piano solos, by J. J. O'Malley and Robert Weber; recitations, by William Jennings, a younger brother of the hero, und a cute little tot named Valsie Banlleld. Miss Kate Saltry was accompanist. v At the conclusion of the programme Jennings made a speech, and for him self and the Baltimore club thanked his townspeople for the grand reception. The team were then taken out to VVhe lun's and banqueted and upon their re turn to the hall found the flavor of the youth of the valley dancing In their honor. Just how late the festivities were prolonged we will omit for feur Manager Hanlon might hear about it. WORLD'S RECORD BROKEN. John Johnson nud Jimuiie Michael Uring Down the Bicycle Time. Ti-enton. N. J.. Sept. 2S. The League of American Wheelmen national circuit meet at Interstate fair today was a success In every resoect. Two world's records were broken. These were the mile record which John S. Johnson brought down to 1.47 flat and the 0-mlle record which Jlmnile Michael lowered to H.fd 4-6. Several accidents occurred during the racing. In the final heat of the one-mile professional race. Otto Zlegler fell from his wheel and broke his left arm near the wrist. He was riding at a terrific speed at the time and he thrust his arm forward as he fell to protect his face. Jeremiah 1. Toman, of Trenton, fell from Ills wheel during the half-mile amateur handicap and sustained severe bruises. Charles Hadfleld, of New York, sus tained a fall resulting In a had internal Inury. Howard U Hawkins, of Tren ton, fell after the first lialf mile lit the final heat of the one-mile race for novices. He was badly cut and shaken up. A. J. Pyle and Fred Rowhead were also Injured. WHIRLS OF THE WHEEL. "There is a striking difference," says a writer In the "Irish Cyclist, "between the multicycles made by American and European makers. The first named usually place the rear rider behind the driving wheel, while the Europeans al ways place all the riders within the wheel base. The American plan short ens the wheel base, but places more strain on, the driving wheel, and in volves more heavy gearing. There Is, however, no originality In the placing of the rear rider behind the rear wheel. This was the position on the very ftist tandem ever built In which both riders drove the rear wheel, but with only one rider in front. I found that the front wheel tipped up by reason of the rear rider's weight behind the rear wheel; and although Albone and I (who designed and made it), hung heavy weights on the front fork, the machine would not steer, and so I designed the next tandem with both riders inside the wheel base. With more than two rid ers, of course, the weight of the men in front more than counterbalances the weight of the one man behind the rear wheel axle." A new bicycle lock invented by a na tive of Milwaukee is placed Inside the front tubing of the frame, and does not mar Its appearance. It Is cylindri cal in form, one inch long, and Is se cured by means of a rubber washer expanded against the side of the tub ing. Locking and unlocking are brought about with a key which en gages the bolt, forcing it outward or inward, locking the front wheel at an angle, thus bringing the bicycle out of operative position. The device does not engage either spokes or sprockets, thereby doing away with possible In jury to the wheel by attempting to ride before unlocking the machine. It Is said that the lock cannot be harmed by hammering, filing or by the use of nippers. It is also said that It can not be "picked" and that It weighs less than two ounces. Columbus, ()., wants the 1S37 League of American Wheelmen race meet. Many inducements are offered, und the Business Men's league of that city In an Invitation says: "Our wide, well paved streets, and our splendid coun try roads will please the w heel i den of the nation. Our parks and public places will Interest them and, best of all. Hint warmth of welcome Me can give, the liberty, the freedom which makes, euch guest feel ut home, wilt lead the swift riders of the world to congratulate themselves upon the Judg ment that fixed the meet of 'H7 at Col umbus." Columbus has UUKil) cyclists. Hill miles of paved streets und u tine race truck. The Spanish ladies look askance at the cycle, us. Indeed, have the sterner sex in sunny Spain until recently. Cy cling is now reci.gnly.ed as u sport In Valencia, und ulthoiigh fashionable so ciety shows Indifference, because the lower anil middle classes fust took it up. the wheel Is slowly finding .favor with them, especially with '.be young er element. "As lor the ladles riding I he wheel," write an agent, "it is likely to take years or another genera tion to be countenanced here; the se dentary life of the fair sex in this coun try cannot be easily overcome. In spile of examples and u full appreciation of the benellclal results. In my opin ion the use of the bicycle by the ladles of Spain will belli towards removing the barrier which prevents them ft mil going out unless attended by a duen na: it will give them more courage and Independence." Parsons, the Australian chumpiou, has failed to show hlt;h form In tluis country, und it is said he will sull for England next week'. He expected to join the team In which Johnson Is the star when he came lo this country, but the negotiations did not go liiruuth.
