BASE BALL GAMES.
Carbondalo Loses Two to tho Honcs
dnlo Team.
Carbondalo lost two Barnes to Hones
'dale yesterday. The morning game was
played at Alumni park and was wit
nessed by a large number of spec
tators, many of whom were from tho
Maple city. The game was for a pursa
of fifty dollars and was Interesting
from start to finish, although at tlmoa
there was considerable wrangling.
Cleary, of Olyphant: Hayes and Powell,
of Mill Creek, nnd Nerney, of Scran
ton, strengthened the locals and It Is
due to their efforts that tho scores
were kept as small as they were.
Honesdale went up In the air In the
morning and the locals succeeded In
batting In three runs, to which they
, afterward added one, making their
total for the game four.
Tho score stood four to three In the
eighth inning, when Honesdale came to
the bat, and when they went out again
the score was changed to six to four
In the visitors' favor. With two men
on basest, Williams made a timely hit,
scoring the two runs and won the game
for Honesdale. Carbondale came to the
bat again but went out In one, two,
three order.
The cranks, whose hopes bad been
high In the earlier part of the game,
went wild when the game ended In
Honesdales' favor. Considerable money
changed hands, with the odds slightly
In Carbondale's favor. Itogan, the um
pire, rendered his decisions with a
trifle of partiality for the home team,
although at most times his Judgment
was excellent.
O'Gara was In the box for the homo
team, while Matthewson was on the
rubber for the visitors. Tho former
pitched an excellent game, but did not
receive the support he should have. Ho
made several assists himself, some of
them being exceedingly had chances.
Matthewson was very speedy, but at
times lost control of the ball. He was
cool at critical points, however, and
twice struck out men while second and
third bases were occupied and two men
out.
The locals cannot hope to cope with
Honesdale's present team until they
have more practice together. Although
they are Individually a strong set of
players, they do not play together. Tho
features of yesterday morning's game
were Schuler's catch In the ninth and
Williams' timely hit In the eighth.
Cleary's catch of McAndrew's hot liner
also deserves special mention. Lynott
played a good game In the field.
The afternoon gamevwas uninterest
ing as it was declded'y one-sided,
Honesdale having the best of It from
start to finish. While Hayes can throw
a fast ball he is by no means a twlrler
as he lacks the headwork necessary
for a good pitcher. The game ended
after much wrangling with the score
14 to 5 In favor of tha team from over
the Mooslcs. During the play Burke,
jr.inesdale's fast man, was severally
injured.
MISS COOGAN DEAD.
She Expired Yesterday Morning at
6 O'clock.
Miss Rose Coogan died yesterday
morning at 6 o'clock at the home of
her parents on Pike street. She has
been ailing for some time past, but
her demise was unexpected. What adds
to the sadness of the death Is the fact
that some of the family were having
nn outing at Crystal Lake and were
not present at the death bedside.

ty years ago and has since resided
here. Sh Is survived by four sisters,

IS IT CURABLE.
A Question Often Asked by Those
AQloted with riloa.
Is a strained Joint curable? Is local
Inflamatlon curable? Of course, if
properly treated. So Is piles.
Pi'Oplo become afl'.lcted with piles and
nsk some old "chronic" who has al
ways persisted In tho wrong treatment
and naturally ho discourages them by
telling them that their caso 1b hope
less. They In turn discourage others, and
thus a disease that can In every caso
bo cured by careful and skillful hand
ling is allowed to sap the energy of
thousands who might freo themselves
of tho trouble In a few days.
Pyramid Pile Cure will euro tho most
aggravated caso of hemorrhoids In an
astonishingly short time. It relieves
tho congested parts, reduces the tum
ors Instantly no matter how large, al
lays tho lnllammatlon and stops tho
aching or Itching at once.
Thousands who have resorted to ex
pensive surgical treatment have been
cured by tho Pyramid Pllo Cure In
a number of Instances persons who
had spent months In an hospital un
der n pile specialist.
It Is a remedy that none need fear
to apply even to the most aggravated,
swollen and Inflamed hemorrhoidal
tumors.
If you are afflicted with this stub
born disease you can master it and
master it nulckly.
This remedy Is no longer an experi
ment but a medical certainty. It is
manufactured by tho Pyramid Pile
company, of Marshall, Mich.
Druggists sell it at 50 cents per box.
It Is becoming the most popular pile
euro the country has ever known and
