WILKES-BARRE WAS EASY
Scranton Had No Trouble in Defeat
ing the Enemy Yesterday Hod
son's Pitching and Doherty's
Fielding the Features.
In a fast, scientific game yesterday,
Scranton took Wllkes-riarre into camp
ind not only shut them out, but showed
them a trick or two about the game.
Jnly three hits were made oft Hod
Jon's delivery, and his support was
flit-edged, the only error being made
was on Dillon's failure to hold McAn
drews" throw, but it did not cost any
thing. Scranton hud a patched-up team In
the field, Rlsley playing second; Mc
A.ndrews, a local player, at short, and
Flanagan behind the bat. But that did
not matter, as the boys played to
gether all right. The fielding of Doher
ty and Tate was of the star order, and
the latter's three-bagger came Just at
the right time. ,
Tho only runs scored in the game
Kere made In the third Inning. Doher
.y started tho trouble with a single,
'ollowed by Knoll, both advanced on
Dillon's sacrifice. Kagan reached first
m RIchter's error, und Tato sent tho
first two home with a corking three
sagger. Rlsley nnd McAndrews singled
ind three more runs came in. Plana
ran forced McAndrews at second and
Hodson went out from pitcher to first.
The whole nine figured In the Inning.
About the only notable features of
Wllkes-Barre's play was Coughlln's
ne-hand stop of a hot liner in the sec
ind, Clymer's work at short and Haiti-
pan's running catch in the seventh.
Dohcrty was easily tho star of the
game, accepting six difficult chances at
third on foul files.
Tate, who was a lobster on Saturday,
was a hero yesterday In the eyes of the
ipectators. He made some beautiful
tunning catches and batted well. Knoll
ilso made a pretty catch in tho third
nnlng. Flanagan's weakness in throw
ing to bases was very potlceable. Ho
had three chances to catch runners and

failed. Umpire Moran had an easy
time of it, as there was nothing close
to decide.
The boys batted well and deserved
their victory, and if they can play ball
during the present home series like
they did yesterday, their standing will
be much better In a short time. It will
be noticed In the detailed score of tho
game that some clever fielding was
done, as the outfield had ten put-outs,
the lntleld fourteen and the catcher
three. The score follows:

and two doubles, tells tho secret of Rich

Mr, Rutledge Replies
Sporting Editor of Tho Tribune.
Sir: With your kind permission I wish
to contradict the article In a recent Issue
of your paper referring to Mr. Irwin's
magnanimous declaration that lie can
have tho whole Wllkes-Barro club for
$300 In two weeks, It seems to mo that
this Is a very ungrateful, as welt as a
false statement, since ho has been nego
tiating with tho Wllkes-Barro manage,
ment for the past threo weeks, and our
decision last Wednesday was precisely
the same as when he first tried to pur
chase Patten and Coughlln, vli.i "Ws
will sell no one at present but Patten
and Coughlln's rclcaso may bo purchased
after July 4 for 12,800."
Thero Is no doubt In my mind that Ir
Iwn and ono or two other Nntlonal league
magnates nro responsible for the wide
spread rumor that tho Atlantic league
Is about to disband. This Is dono In a
spirit of selfishness, with tho hopa that
they can build up their rcBpectlvo clubs
with lomo of tho excellent young talent
with which tho Atlantic tongue abounds,
To provo their shrewdness I might stato
that I sftw a telegram from Mr. Wagner,
owner of the Washington club, to Mr.
Irwin, whoreln ho stated: "Thero Is no
uso paying money for those players when
wo can get them for nothing later on."
In order to offset their scheming I
Journeyed around tho Atlantic league cir
cuit and met several of tho club owners.
With tho Information I obtained you may
stato positively that Allcntown, Reading,
Lancaster, I'aterton, Richmond and
Wllkes-Barre will continue to tha end no
matter what decisions tho ."remaining
clubs como to, nnd there Is nothing ap
parent that leads mo to think that Scran
ton or Newark will quit beforo tho end
of tho senson.
Then, If Mr. Irwin or any other Na
tional leaguer wants players from tho
Atlantic league they may draft them in
the regular order. In the mcnntlmo Mr.
Irwin or nny othfr mngnato cannot havo
any of Wllkes-Barre's talent for less
than tho price wo named. Moreover wo
nro not anxious to sell and should any
deal bo made it will be when the play
ers themselves show nn anxious dispo
sition to get Into tho Nntlonat league. As
It Is directors nnd plnyers are in har
mony, and both aro satisfied. Very
gratefully yours.

Vice President Wllkes-Barro Ball Club.

DILLON AND LIPPERT SOLD.
Buffalo's Offer Accepted nnd the Deal
Was Closed Yesterday.
First Baseman Dillon nnd Right
Fielder Lippert were sold to Buffalo
yesterday, the purchase price not be
ing made public, but Scranton secures
two players In the deal, BUI Mnssey
and Outfielder Householder.
The exchnnge will take place at onco
and the new men are expected to re
port for duty at this morning's game.
Dillon will play with Buffalo today,
but Lippert Is sick nnd may not bo
able to report for a day or two.
Massey 1o well known to Scranton
fandom and needs no Introduction, but
Householder has never played in this
city. He Is a first class mnn, however,
and in the opinion of many Is a much
better man than Lippert. Dillon Is
certainly a clever player and Is des
tined to shino in fast company.
The addition of Massey nnd House
holder will strengthen tho Sctanton
club, and with Tate at second, and
O'Neill, Rlsley and McMahon back In
form, we can make them all hustle.
A Htrong-throwlnp, heavy-hitting
catcher is needed to help out O'Neill,
and with Mc Andrew ns substitute, tho
team would be in goccl shape.
If the league remains intact after
today, Manager Swift must secure an
other catcher and permit Rlsley to re
cuperate from his Indisposition.
Today's game will start at 10.13 a. m.,
with Wllkes-Barre. There will be no
gamo in the nfternoon, Scranton play
ing nt Wilkes-Barro.
Virgil Garvin Sold.
Reading, Pa., July 3. Virgil Garvin, the
Rending club's leading pitcher, was sold
tonight to Chicago for $1,500.
DIAMOND PICK UPS.
Mclntyre, of Allcntown, want3 to play
in Scranton.
Catcher Klttrldge, released by Louis
ville, has signed with Washington.
Pitcher Magee, of Louisville, has been
purchased by Philadelphia for $3,250.
Lippert Is on the sick list and may not
be able to play for slme time to come.
McMahon is suffering from a sprained
nnklo, sustained In the gamo at Newark
on Sunday.
Martin McQuald, whom Swift wanted
for Scranton, has been released by
Youngstown.
Hurry Smith, Wllkes-Barre's catcher,
has jumped tho team and returned to
his homo In Masslllon, O.
O'Neill's finger is bothering him again,
and he has been forced out of the game
seven times this season by Injury.
Tho Pittsburg Dispatch says that
Hughey Jennings' debut In that city as
a first baseman was not a success.
Michael O'Neill, who pitched Satur
day's game, has gono to Morris Plains,
N. J., to play. He Is averse to entering
professional ball Just at present.
McAndrews, who played short yester
day, was released by Newark Saturday
on account of a slump In his hitting. He
may provo a good man for Scranton.
Hnrry Merrill, of Wllkes-Barre, threw
a con. at Manager Swift yesterday for
young Hayes, the Taylor Rcnd's third
baseman, who has been playing nt
Bloomsburg, but Swift smiled and walked
away.
Keenan nnd O'Neill will be tho bat
tery this morning, and either Rlsley or
Hodson and O'Neill this afternoon. Mc
Andrew will play In both games. He was
signed last evening by Manager Swift.
Garvin, the husky Texan, tried by the
Philadelphia, club under the Stallings
regime, Is regarded us tha leading pitcher
of tho Atlantic league, and will doubt
less bo drafted by some major league
team next fall.
Jake Wells Insists that he has another
Rusle In Twlrler Billy Donovan, who
pitched In Saturday's game, Dovovan
has pitched threo games this season for
Richmond, in which tho opposition were
held to one and two hits. Ho Is gradually
mastering control of the ball.
A big shake-up Is Imminent In tr.4 Al
lcntown baso ball club. Manager Shar
slg has lines out for a new pitcher, an
Inllelder and an outfielder. The players
will bo the best that money can buy and
It Is expected that the team will soon
take a big Jump pennnntward.
John Bonner, who has been practicing
with tho Scranton team this week, has
.returned to Mauch Chunk nnd will finish
the sensor, here, in his old position at
second base. Scranton was quite will
ing to sign him, but Johnny prefers
Mauch Chunk. Mauch Chunk News.
"I'd liko to bat in front of McGraw,"
said Ducky Holmes: "If I did I'll bet I
would lend tho country In baso running.
He's tho right kind to help out a base
runner. If ho doesn't hit the ball and
help you along he'll do enough at tho
plate to tnsuro you a great chance to
make the base."
Pitcher Ed Ames, of the Paterson club,
has deserted and left for his home In
Philadelphia. The cause for his leaving.
It is said, was on account of a fine of
$23 being Imposed on him by President
Barrow, of the Atlantic league, for in
different playing. Third Baseman Goch
anur has also deserted.
"Billy Hamilton's absence from tho
Bostons has hurt tho strength of that
team a great deal," said Manager Mc
Graw recently. "I picked the Bostons
to win tho pennant, and I believe that It
Hamilton had been able to stay in the
gamo they would havo finished first.
Without Hamilton the team Is badly off.
Hamilton Is a wonderful ball player, but
he Is not appreciated In Boston."
Manager Donovan, of Pittsburg, has
released Pitcher Jimmy Gardner. Gard

baso ball and practice law, as ho is an
attorney. If ho should contlnuo to play
ho might bo of help to some other club,

The Reading Times says: "Just why
President Barrows persists In keeping
tho Paterson club depending on the char
ity of tho other sovon clubs backing up
the Atlantic league, Instead of placing
tho organization in another town Is a
question many fans along tho circuit are
now wrestling with. Powell's organiza
tion cannot draw decently In Its own
home and very little enthusiasm is
evinced when they visit tho other cities
In tho circuit. It is manifestly unfair
that the other clubs should bo called upon
to keep Paterson In existence."

Vandllng base ball club on Sunday, July
2, when tho latter was defeated by tho
score of 7 to 6. Tho features of tho gamo

stop work of John Ames was unique.
BUN ECIPSED AT MIDNIGHT.
Pacts About a Phenomenon Visible
Nowhere on Earth.
From tho London Times.
The ordinary almanac gave for De
cember 13 a partial eclipse of the sun,
invisible at Greenwich. And Indeed
the expression as to its invisibility
might have been put much stronger,
for it was to be seen In no Inhabltated
region of the earth. An anarctlo ex
pedition might possibly havo sailed
within its sphere of Influence, but as
It was passed unwatched by human
eyes. This being so, and tho eclipse
one that was necessarily wholly un
seen, It would seem ns if nothing moro
could be said about It, and as if it
might bo passed without comment.
But, unseen as it was, the eclipse was
by no means devoid of interest. First
of all, it offers us an example ot what
seems a paradox an eclipse of the sun
taking place of local midnight It is
moreover, the first of three eclipses
falling without a period no longer than
a single calender month. December 27
will bring a total eclipse of the moon
at Greenwich; January 11 a partial
eclipse of the sun. And the three are
very Intimately connected with each
other. Tho latter in nearly all its
characteristics stands in strong con
trast to the eclipse of December 13
a large partial eclipse which will be
seen Just outside tho borders of the
arctic regions, at their midday and in
their midwinter. Nor is this sequence
accidental. A similar triplet of eclip
sesthe llrst partial of the sun and
seen near the south pole, the second
total of the moon, the third partial
of the sun and visible near the north
pole occurred just eighteen years
ago, all threo eclipses falling in De
cember 1SS0. Going back yet another
eighteen years we find tho same thing
repeated some ten days earlier in the
year, and so on right away backward
till 1064, when, while the southern
eclipse was a largo partial one and
fell nearly In the midwinter of the
southern hemisphere, tho northern was
a mere graze taking place at the mid
night of the regions from which it
was visible. Looking forward we find
in like manner that eighteen years
hence another similar triplet of eclip
ses will fall at the turn of the year,
and yet another eighteen years later
still. This ends the series of these mid
night eclipses of the sun In the south
polar regions, for January, 1353, will
be marked only by a total eclipses of
the moon.
A Cheap Trip to the Pacific Coast.
Tho National Educational Associa
tion meeting at Los Angeles, Cal., Is
the occasion for the Southern Railway
to put on the remarkably cheap rate
of one fare for the round trip (plus
$2.00 Association Membership fee),
This, in connection with the new Pal
ace Tourist Sleeping Cars, operated
over tho Southern Railway and South
ern Pacific, a double berth in which
costs only $7.00, renders possible the
cheapest and most enjoyable trip ot tho
season. A particularly pleasant fea
ture of this trip is that the tickets are
good going one way and returning an
other; I. e going via New Orleans and
returning through Salt Lake City and
Colorado; or by tho payment of $12.50
additional, the trip may be made re
turnink through Portland, Ore.
Stop-over privileges are allowed at
El Paso or nny point west thereof, on
the going trip, and at any point west
of Denver and Colorado Springs on
the return trip. By this means pas
sengers are afforded tho opportunity of
seeing the entire Pacific Coast. Side
trips are arranged at nominal cost
from Los Angeles and San Francisco
to all points of Interest in California.
