THB SCnANTON team yesterday afternoon lined up nualnot tha Sunset", n "tronf" amateur nine, nnd for several lnnlnga Indulged In a hard, lively liractlce. Fer Buson, Shefllcr and Knox accepted the few chances offered them In the out field, hut the lnflelders had hardly nny work to do, the battery disposing of most of the batsmen. At the bat the Scran on players proved stronger than In any practice game during the week. Mclntyre, the ,blg first-baseman, led with ft triple, a double and two singles oilt of four times at the bat. Ills thico-bagger was a torrillc drive to deep left, which, If he had nprlnted a little faster he could easily have stretched Into a home run. J. J. O'Hrlen, the short-stop, also laced the ball out in fine style and made the first homo run of the practice giinirs, by, hitting the ball to deep left. The 'hit was misjudged by the outfielder, however, and In a league game would have probably been an n-.it This afternoon the team will be Hlven Its first chance to show what It ii.n ilo. The stiong "Wyoming Seml imiy team, of Kingston, will oppose them and er.deaor to give the pro ft'Kslonuls n hard, tussle. This nine has played a scries of rallies with the "Wllkps-Barrc team, and has. made .a remarkably good showing The game will start prompt ly at 3.45 o'clock, and a very large at tendance i expected. The Scianton team will line up as follows. Ferguson, left field; J. J. O'Hrlei) shoit-stop; ShefTller, rlght lltitl Knox, center-field; Mclntyre, ihst base; Doheity, thhd base; I.

I'.aiiium, who was heie Thuisday im l rfe maniigei of "The Gill In the 1 Uiinc'iM" company, and who was foi iiieil one of the best known umplien In the country, "the funniest happen ing I ever saw on a diamond occuned way back or. It must 'have been In the latter part of the '80s at SI. Louis "Theie was a hot game on between S-t Louis, and I think It was Boston It was tight all the way through, and the ninth Inning was a tie. It con tinued so until the eleventh. Boston h.ul the outs and were at the bat. It was beginning to get a little dusky and the ciowd began to yell at me to call the game on account of darkness, p.ir i ikulaily as the St. Louis pitcher was I eglniiliig to weaken. Welt, 1 thought It was light enough in play and I Kaid e.o, briefly and em phatically. The St. Louts playeis crowded around me, trying to get me to stop the game, but I wouldn't do it, and unlet eil them to go on the Held. "Well, they went. And then came the "funny Incident. Arlle Latham was playing third base at that time on the Hi Louis team, nnd lie trotted out on the field sotrowfully. Refore going to third he visited each of the other bases and at each placed a candle, which he elitHv from his pocket. He lighted them, a AT then taking his etand at third yelled 'Play ball!'" "It was one of the most comical things that the diamond humoiist ever "did, and for a while I laughed so that I couldn't order the game to go on." Josh Clarke, a brother of Fred CUrJu, the great outfielder now with Pittsburg, is playing In the Rochester outfield and Is showing up In gieat form. He Is a fast outfielder, a good batsman nnd clever on the bases. The Reading Atlantic League team took Its first practice Wednesday when It lined up against the Reading Browns, the crack amateur nine of Berks county. The professionals won by a ecore of C-4. They fielded well, a mlsplay by Tate In left field being the only error charged against thm. At the bat the men showed up far fiom strongly, only making seven hits, of vhleh Beaumont, the first baseman, alone had three. ' The make-up of the Athletics Beems to bo the strongest of any announced so far. Manager Dick Cooley will play center field and captain the team and among the other crackerjack players on the nine are Catcher Jacklltzch, last par the star Montreal backstop; Sec ond Baseman Zlegler, the clever joungster who created such a favora ble Impression by his practice work with the Phillies; Left Fielder Flem ing, last year with New York; Shoch, the former Brooklyn Inflelder, and Pitchers Conn, Mahaffey and Duggle- by. Big "Llzzlo" Fields, the old Buf falo flrst baseman who Is well remem bered hero on account of the habit he contracted of hitting the ball over the fence on nearly every occasion he vis ited Scranton, will bo stationed at first. MoFadden, the young Villa Nova col. lege pitcher, seems to be a crack twlr lcr. He recently shut out an opposing team without a run or hit, and last Saturday, In a game against Law rencevllle, had the wonderful record of twenty otrlke-outs. Hlllebrand, of Princeton, is showing up in great form this year, and ,is pitching strongly, fielding his position well and lining the leather out In great shape. Magoon, last year with Baltimore and Chicago, Is playing a strong sec ond base for Indianapolis In the Amer ican League. In Shearon, Knoll and Gettman, the Buffalo American League team has an outfield Just about as fast as they find them. Little "Hub" Knoll's hard hit ting, fast fielding and llghtnlng-llke base running last year In this city, earned him the reputation of being one of the star outfielders of the Atlantic League. Shearon was always consid ered one of the best batsmen In the Eastern League and In the Western League Jake Gettman was known by the flattering sobriquet of "The West ern Kceler."

GEORGE S. DAVIS. Without doubt the crack short stop of the National League to day is George S. Dav is, whose most recent photograph is here presented, He has been for several years a member of the New York nine. Last season he was captain of the team. the Philadelphia management seems by many to be unfair. Dick says: "They nie tiylng to make me out a dead one," and it tertulnly seems as though he 1m right. He still has the ability to shine In the National and the crowding of him out of the big league lanks certainly seems unf.tit. During his service at Philadelphia Cooley both batted and fielded well and he now deeply resents what he considers an Injustice done him in fanning him out. Piesldent Young, of the National League, wrote the following opinion concerning the Atlantic to Piesldent Fogel: "I consider your present cii cuit the best the Atlantic League has ever had, and one of the best ever or ganized. It avoids the long jump South, is concentrated and is composed of stiong cities." Pitcher Fertsrli, Uiht je.u with Read ing, will again be a one end of that city's battery this year. Jimmy Stafford, the ex-New Yoil:, Boston and Washington pluer will cover second base for the Pi evidence Kastein League team this season.

Ful ly 25 per cent of the entries In the ath letic contests will be representatives of the brawn and muscle of Ameilca, and It la therefore a very fortunate thing that such a prominent man in Ameri can sporting circles should be put In charge.

The Sawtelle Dramatic company will make Its appearance it the Academy Monday ecning next, presenting for the flrst time in this city and the first time out of New York the latest New York and London success, "The Victorian Cross," a story ot British army life in India during the Sepoy rebellion. As the title implies, the story of the play has dealing with the winners of tho Victorian cross, an honor which ccry English soldier vies for.

"Lord Bnon," which is being presented by James oung and an excellent company of plajcrs is to some ex tent a success of spectacle. From beginning tn end the stage is a blaze ot perfectly harmonlreil color, and the period to which the play be longs, and the fact that two scene I are laid in Majfalr, London, and two in Greece whither B)ron went to fight for tho freedom of the Greeks glea great scope for costuming, which Mr. Young has not neglected to teire. In spite of the many c.wiical epigrams hurled at the heads of the gentler se in Mr. Young's new play of "Lord B)ron," It is a play that the women will enjoy. There are beauutul interior and outdoor scenes, loc making, pretty women In pretty gowns, and Lord Byron, Tom Moore, Lord Dclatcn, Loid Jersey and Sir Charles Lamb inoln, about among them.
