Over blx feet of a big pitching secret Was sprung on tho lllpons Saturday nt Athletic rails with the result that Scranton won the flnal game of tho series. It was WVHner, the ex-Texas leaguer, built on the Husle plan, who was trotted Out by Man.igt r "Sandy." Ever since the second da.y of the prac tice trip he has been laid up wl'h a badly split pitching hnnd, but the wound healed just in time to allow him to take a fall out of Buffalo. The big fellow showed a terrllle speed and lots of courage although he be gan pitching with a tendency to put the ball anywhere but over the plat". In the 111 st Inning he gave three basei on balls, which, with two errors, a paciitlce and an outfield Ily, gave thu Hlsoni two unearned lima. They earned one In the secend on a double and a triple with two out, Irjt theie nfter the oanal men from Kile county were never in the hunt. One hit was all that the big four, Gllboy, Wise, Fields and Gremiringer. could develop and even the coaching of the exquisite "Mercy" Clyrr.er had no effect on Scranton's thick-skinned Texan. BROWN, TOO, WAS WILD. IJrown, the roley-boley, puff-ball, was In the box for Buffalo and was at In tervals aa wild as Wollner had been in the early part -of the game, but Scranton was able to sprinkle in nn occasional hit with the fat boy's wlld ncss, and so won the game by the scoio of C to 3. TJaeh team Inst many an opi ortunlty to teoie, hut failed through some fast work by Uonner nnd Magulr of the Mlnei team, nnd Wise and Gllboy for the Blbons. Gllboy matle the sensation nl pli-.y of the day. With one out and ICagan on first, Mussey hit a fans, high driver toward the left Held corner and It seemed good for a homer. After first nilFjudglng the lltght of the ball, Gil boy got under It and made 11 one-hand catch. Kagan wa tearing gravpl f(.r homo at the time between second and third. After Gilboy's unexpected play, Fnpan ran b.icl; to first, but nu de clared out for skipping second. That lotlred the side nnd made Gilboy's catch doubly fortunate. Manager "Sandy" did not have an over-abundance of confidence In the black labblt with n lame left hind leg and which was sent to him from May field Friday nlcht by an unknown friend, so he sent the home team to the field nt the lipglunlnrr cf the game for the first time this year. This scheme nnd the presence of Brer Babbit was n combination, together with Wellner's pitching, th.it the Dlsoi.s couldn't over come. VISITOllS BEGIN TO SCOBE. The visitors started the entertnln ment with a base nn bolls which, with .Bonner's error, a sacrifice hit and n bftfee on balls, tilled the bases. A third base' on balls to Fields forced In a run, nnd an outfield Ily developed tho second tally. The final Buffalo run eimo in the second with two out. Cl.'inor hit for two bases and was tripled to the plate by Grey. For seven Innings the Bisons wero goosc-egg-d, although In only two In jilligs did they gj down one-two -thrct. In the fourh with two out Brown made a hit and was nipped at the jjlatc on MaguiivK m!s of Clymer'a grounucr. in the sixth with ono out "Welliier gave two baps on balls In fulck .Miecesslon, but n, force hit and a pop" -fly to M?.3ey retired the ildo "With one nut in the eighth. Fields' single and Sullivan's double put 1 mi ners on third anj secr.nd. Vrquhurt fanned but the buses filled when Brown was hit with a pitched ball. Clyiuery fly lo Daly ended the Inning. In both th fruvelith and ninth the first Bison up led off with a single but only threu others were nt bat in each of those innings. With tho score 3-0 against them thu JIlnerB tied the tally In tho last of 'the second. PITCHING EIinOBS. ;Beard Bingled. Eagan was hit by a pitched ball, Mu&sey flew out to cen ter and tho bases filled on a walk tu Magulre. A run was forced In on a base on ball to Boytt and with the, base full Wellner made a. lucliy slnglo .which brought In tho two tyltvr runs, Ih ball was hit between aecond and thit'i and to whore cither Sullivan ur lUorkl of Gremmlnger could have fielded It but each thought the other would take I and I he former covered second and the Intter third, permitting Kagan nnd Marrulre to (ret In. The ml'play wat more costly than an error would have been. Scranton's two wlnnlntr runs were made In the fourth. Pinnies by Mas sey ftlid MoRiiire were followed by n, wild pitch which advanced them to third and second. They scored on Hoyd's hit to right center for one bnsp. Wollner sacrificed and O'Brien walked but the side was retired on Ilonner's force hit nnd Daly's out at first. The final run In the sixth was made on Magulre's two-baser to lght cen ter, Jloyd's life and a wild pitch, Score: A. C.

Taylor pitched a superb game, holding the cham pions down to six hits and giving but one base on balls, but the errors of the men behind him more than nullified his good work.

Peter Hagan has thus far been tho most reliable Utter on the team when men wero on bases. The lame black rabbit was frisking about the Scranton bench on Saturday when the two winning runs were made. The Buffalo club remained at tho West minster over Sunday. The Toronto club came here from Wilkes-Barro Saturday night. Gunson's sprained thumb Is 11 moro se rious Injury than was nt first supposed. It was put in splints yesterday nnd will have to remain so bandaged for about ten days. Manager Griffin's black rabbit with tho f-prlng-hnlt leg Is being cared for at the park by Oroundkeeper Clark. We can see Brer Babbits' finish If the club doesn't win. Glllon and Boyd will be the Scranton battery this afternoon. Glllon has great ly Improved his form during the last fw days and ought to ke-! the Canadians guessing. It was a coincidence that the star plays of the Buffalo-Scrairton series should be one-hand catches by tho two leftfleldcrs. Each was made with a runner on the bases and retired the side. Tho Torontos come here with but ono victory out of nine games played which Is unfortunate for Scranton. The Canadians are too strong to merit their eight defeats and aro due to win a few games. It would havo been better for Scranton If Irwin's team had reached here with a string of victories. BASE BALL UNIFORM CONTEST. The number of votes now closely ap proaches 30,000.
