T
S SCKANTON coins to have a
team or not?" Is the query that
every local ba&e ball enthusiast
Is giving vent to these days.
Now that the Atlantic league
Is practically assured and all the other
cities eligible for entrance are lining
up and girding their loins for the com
ing meeting" at Allcntown on Monday
It Is thought that Scrantonlans should
begin to take a brace and make their
presence know.
M. K. Sanders is working hard for
a Scranton team and has already had
n largo amount of money pledged him
to start a team and maintain it for
a while, at least. Scranton Is wanted
In the league by the other cities, as
the circuit would not bo complete
without the old-time rivals, Wilkes
Harre and Scranton, paired off against
each other. Scranton cranks are eager
for a team and the conviction Is ex
pressed on all sides that once a good,
liard-worklng team is hylged here the
city will more than suppoit It. The
Idea of a league which would be prac
tically a state association Is also a
very pleasing one. It lowers the cost
of transportation of players, the dis
tances traveled being so much shorter,
the cities all being situated so near
rach other stimulates a greater rivalry
and, all things considered, it would
seem that a team located here in this
now Atlantic league would prove a suc
cess. Strikes and Spares.
LOPAIj Interest has been thorough
ly aroufacd in bowling, and ' the
matches played on the various al
leys are attended by throngs of spec
tators who crowd the quarters and
signify their enthusiasm In the most
liearty manner, there being enough
looting dono to remind ono of a base
lall game at which the home team Is
In the lead. Besides tho match games
played there Is a great deal of indi
vidual bowling done, and some fine
scores are made. Tho best recent
score was that made by Charles HIehl,
on tho Klk alleys last Saturday night,
when ho made 263 by rolling nine
strikes and two spares.
Tho week's league bowling wbb made
up of close although rather low roll
Ing. Tho Backus team defeated for
the second, time the Bicycle club and
also proved victorious In the match
with the "West End Wheelmen's club
of Wllkes-Barre. The highest score of
tho week was made In tho game with
the Bicycle club by Coons, of the
Backus team, he scoring 197. Wednes
day the Bicycle club's second team
downed the Elk "ponies" by 210 pins,
bowling In splendid style, Moore do
ing especially effectlvo work.
The Backus Bowling team still leads
the league, both in number of victories
and in total of pins. They have not
yet suffered defeat and ore bowling a
steady, fast game.

Base Bajl Brevities.
THE Rochester - Eastern leagus
team, for this season, has now
looks like n winner, on paper
nt least. The latest member sign?d
Is Josh Clark, a, brother of Fred
Clark, the manager-cr.ptnln of this
year's Pittsburg team, and Is said
to be a good batter and clever fielder.
Bill .Smlnlc, for the lapt few seasons
an Eastern league player, and formerly
an old State league man. will bear the
brunt of the catching, and Mcl'artlln,
Walker, Bowen and old "Pop" Morse,
who foimcrly wore a Scranton uni
form, will attend to the twirling de
partment. Harry O'ilagan. last year's
heavy hitting first baseman, will again
play that position, nnd George Smith
will hold down second. Frank Bon
ner, formerly second baseman on th
Wllkes-Barre and Scranton nines, will
play shortstop. Gremmlnger, the big
fellow who formerly playpd third baso
on tho Buffalo team, nnd established
for himself In this city a very unen
viable reputation as a "dirty" bait
Player, will guard third. Carnpau will
bo stationed In right, Clark In left and
Lush, the fast general player, who
formerly played with Rochester and
Toronto, while Scranton was In the
Eastern league, will be stationed in
center. Francis will bo used as a gen
eral utility man. Shortstop Bean,
Pitcher Catlleu and Inflelders Kln.r
and Shorten are other members of tho
team, who have not yet reported fot
duty.
The Philadelphia team will have an
other addition to its already very
strong catching department this sea
son In Fred Jacklltzsch. This young
man, with the unpronounceable name,
has been drafted from Montreal, where
for the last few seasons he has filled
the ibackstop position in magnificent
style, Holding his position In an almost
faultless manner and batting like it
fiend. It is not unlikely that in caie
he can keep up with the National
leaguo speed that ho will be tried at
Hrst base, where since Goeckel's res
ignation from the diamond, consider
able speculation, has been rife as to
who will play the position.
George Van Haltren, the New York
centre fielder, is nt present occupied
Jn coaching tho California university
base ball nine.
Tliero is considerable talk about a
.consolidation of the Baltimore and
three sizes, 25c, 50c., $1 .00.
New York tcainc, In case the Natlonat
league circuit Is reduced to eight clubs,
in which event the Oriole management
would probably withdraw from the
league und dispose of Its pluyuis. IXuno
Rumor has it that several players
have already been negotiated for, and
that McGraw, Robinson, McGlnnlty,
Sheckard, DeMontrcvlllo and Kltcon
are all destined to become Giants. In
case they do New York will be repre
sented by one of tho fastest teams In
tho league and will bo able to put In
an exceedingly strong bid for the pen
nant. Just what Bill Lange, the star Chi
cago outfielder Is going to do this
year vematns a mystery, nnd the latest
report is that Manager Henry Harris,
of the San Francisco nine, has mado
him an offer to captain the Callfornlan
team. Lange Is quoted ns saying that
he will not again wear n Chicago uni
form and just what he will do remains
to be seen.
The young Callfornlan pitcher, Har
vey, who Is touted as a second
Hughes, has signed with Chicago.
Patrick Donovan, long the reliable,
steady playing Pittsburg outfielder, has
again attached his name to a Smoky
City contract.
Among the Pugs.
THE SIGNING of articles by Tom
Sharkey and Bob Fltzsimmons for
a fight in tho near future has
aroused much speculation, nnd It Is
expected that the light will prove one
of the fiercest and hardest fought seen
in a good, long time. There will bu
a big puio In it for tho winner, and
there is little doubt but that "both men
will put up all the fight In them. Shar
key Is Hushed with a long string of
icceiit victories, whllo Fltzsimmons,
nlthough hi has not been in the Xing
for some tlnin, is still possessed of all
his old time tticngth nnd will certain
ly make things lively for the husky
sailor.
A light Is scheduled In which the two
contestants will both be ns black as a
brace of aces of spades. Tom
O'Rourke's challenge to back Joe Wal
cott ngalnst.any heavyweight in tho
world for $.",000 has been accepted by
the manager of Frank Chllds, tho col
ored fighter, who claims to b? the
champion negro pugilist of the world.
He Is the same man who last Friday
night defeated Jack Bonner, tho Sum
mit Hill boxer, at Chicago, after a
hard-fought six round battle. He la
said to be a very clever fighter, but
whether he can withstand the fierce
rushes of the "Black Demon," conquer
or of the mighty Choynskl, remains to
be seen.
Sporting Squibs.
JOHN FLANAGAN, the great ath
lete and champion amateur ham
mer thrower of the world, has
been engaged to coach the weight men
of the Yale track team this Spring,
and under his expert supervision the
sons of Ell expect to turn out some
sura winners.
Harvard will have a foot ball kick
ing contest thlB season for the pur
pose of developing punters and drop

was noticeable last fall, when the
wearers of the crimson had to bring
an end back of the line to do the elev
en's punting. Cups will be awarded at
prizes to the men doing tho bent kick
ing, and much interest is shown al
ready. Height and distance will be
counted In passing Judgment. 1'hls
year's winner will be Ineligible for
next season's contest.
One of the chief attractions at tho
Pan-American Exposition, to be held
during the summer of 1901 at Buffalo,
will be an athletic carnival. A Roman
stadium will be erected for this pur
pose, covering about 400,000 square
feet and capable of seating 25,000 peo
ple. In this wilt bo conducted bicycle
races, In which the crack cyclists of
(this country will compete, and also
those of Europe. All manner of field
sports will ho Indulged in, there being
a movement on foot to bring over some
of the star athletes of the old country
to try conclusions with tho representa
tives of the now. There Is also a pos
sibility that the trap shooting cham
pionship of America will be settled at
this carnival.
HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.
A. J. Colburn gavn his lecturo on
George Washington at the High School
during tho Inst two pcrloils of yester
day's session before n very appreciative
audience of students and befoto a num
ber of tho members of tho school board.
The main thing considered by Mr. Col
burn In opening his uddreps was tho
high position wo havo obtained among
tho nutlons of tho world, not only as a
nation which consistently upholds prin
ciples laid down In its constitution, but
also us a nation that abhurs tyranny
In all Its forms and upholds that which
Is llberty-luvlng and law-abiding.
Ho said that of all tho Illustrious names
which stand forth on tho pages of tho
world's history, us thoso who have aided
in the advancement of nations una hu
manity, tho namo of George Washington
holds tho highest and most exalted place,
not only In tho heart of every truo Amer
ican, but ulso In tho hearts of many
others. The manner In which tho speaker
pictured Washington, praying In a se
cluded spot apart from tho raging batllo,
when defeat and dlsrstor to his llttlo
bands of patriots stared him In tho fnco,
and when nil nroimd him was gloom and
desolation, wns truly Riibllmo. Tho far
different ambitions which stirred Wash
ington as compared with Caesar, Charle
magne, Napoleon and Alexander was re
ferred to at length nnd the nobleness of
this side of Washington's character
dwelt upon.
Tho speaker said It was not enough for
tho rising generation In our country to
honor thoFO who built up nnd made our
country tho grand republic which It now
Is, but it Is tho duty of each .person to
prepare himself to take up tho "work
which has been so nobly curried on by
our forefathers and catch tho burden ns
It falls from off tho shoulders of those
who aro now guiding the Ship of State,
nnd with calm nnd resolute determina
tion strive to do our best for tho ad
vancement of our glorious union.

VICE PRESIDENT R0XA
Roxa Tyler, Vice President of the
Illinois Woman's Alliance, speaks In
high praise of Peruna to restore tired
nerves and weak body. In a letter
written to Dr. Hartmnn from 910 East
60th street, Chicago, III., she says the
following:
"During the past year I gradually
lost flesh and strength until I was
unable to perform my work. I tried
different remedies, and finally Pe
runa was suggested to me. It gave
me new life and restored my
strength. I cannot speak too highly
of It."
Miss Anna Carslen. Clayton, Ills.,
says: "Your Peruna did me so much
good. I believe I
should have been
dead by this time
had I not used it.
I am feeling so
well now. I have
not taken any
medicine for four
or five months. I
can cheerfully rec
ommend Peruna to
my friends."
Mr. Peter Hnt
tenberger, Portcr
fleld, Wis., writes:
"I suffered with
Miss Anna Carsten, chronic catarrhJor
Clayton, III. nine years. The ca
tarrh settled on my lungs and I had
all the symptoms of consumption.
Through the use of Peruna I am now
well and happy."
Catarrh of the lungs is, ordinarily,
known as consumption; also called
tuberculosis. In these cases the catarrh
has usually found Its way into the
lungs by the gradual extension of tho
disease from the throat through tho
bronchial tubes. Consumption is the
natural termination of all cases of ne-
Marriage Licenses.

glected chronic catarrh. Every one whft
Is afflicted with chronic catarrh Is liable
to be attacked with consumption nt any

Peruna Is a sure cure; In the later
stages of the disease Peruna can be re

quires a persistent use of Peruna for
