Wash Suits Is Here
The assortment of natty styles is the most
complete in Northeastern Pennsylvania, and
it will prove mighty interesting to all mothers
of boys in this city. The styles and fabrics
have been greatly improved upon over last
season. ' The materials, while being light and
comfortable,( have, by a special process, been
woven stronger and have that wear-resisting
quality so necessar.y for healthy boys. We've
always kept good qualities we believe it
pays better in the long run, but this season
we have worked harder to produce a line of
Wash Suits that in point of quality, style, fit
and workmanship far surpasses all our pre
vious efforts.
Note Our prices for Quality.

The
"Middy" Suit.
This suit exactly represents
young America on the high seas,
and while being made of wash
material, it is considered dressy
and stylish. The children of New
York's best society can be seen at
this time of the year dressed in
this same natty style. The young
American middy suit we are sell-at

an exact copy of the famous "Spanish
Sombrero." They are the very latest
thing the manufacturers have produced

them as in every novelty. See them in

Wash Knee Pants.
If your boy wants a pair of single
pants this is the only store in town
that can show you such a large variety
of colors, and then we pay more atten
tion to the sewing of buttons and the
strength of waist band. See
themat x5C

A very popular hat for children
this summer is the Linen Tarn O'Shan
ter. Looks neat and cool. The qualities
in this special line come nearer the joe
grade, shown in other stores. Silk band
with cross anchors. Will sell
them at xOC
Straw Sailors.
Our Straw Sailor Hats for children
have a distinctive style about them. We
ordered them to be made with the brim a
little wider than usual. Mothers tell us
this small improvement gives the child a
nattier appearance. See .

"Brighton" Suit
A very neat " Blouse " style
in several different shades of
wash fabric. The neat stripe

most popular, although we have
them either fancy or plain. These

new patent waist band, and are
much stronger than the old style.

style from .

The Norfolk
Blouse Suit.
These suits have received as
much tailoring as any cloth suit in'
our stock. I he neat silk sewing

the novelty of design that have
been worked into these suits.

T'lE RASE HALT, SITUATION still
maintains nn Inky hue, which
bodes HI for prospects of a pro
fessional team here during the re
mainder of the season. Manager
Iiurnhnm has not yet lecelved any
message from President Powers, of the
Eastern league and the chances are all
against our being admitted to that cir
cuit. The prospects of ouf getting into
r.ny league are dark, and In all prob
ability the season will comu to a close
with Scrnnton teamless. The local
placers are all In receipt of good offers
from outside teams and are sure of
good berths. President Franklin, of
the Iluffalo team, and George Tebeau,
o the Denver nine, were in town yes
terday morning, and In the afternoon
ttltnepsed the game In Wllkes-I3arre.
Kervln Is In receipt of several offers,
but rumor has It that he will go to St.
Louis. Pirate O'Brien Is also said to
be In receipt of a St. Louis offer. Mike
Doherty is negotiating with the New
York team, which needs a good third
baseman, and Hub Knoll will probably
go to Cleveland In tho American
league. Mllllgan will go to Buffalo In
the same league, and Kennedy will
probably go to Toronto's Eastern
league team, AH the other players are
In receipt of good offers.
IMght Off the Bat.
THE LAST official figures published
of the National league players'
standing show that Wagner, Pitts
burg's star rlghtflelder, leads the hit
ters of the big league, with the great
average of .416 In forty-two games.
Elmer Flick, of Philadelphia, follow)
with .417, and Selbach, of New York:
Lajole, of Philadelphia; McQraw, of
8t. Louis; Davis, of New York; Dela
hanty, of Philadelphia; Ueckley, of
Cincinnati, and Pitcher Dlncen, of
Boston, pro' the pther sluggers who, In
the order named, make up the first ten
leading batters. It seems an' odd fact
that, with the exception of McQraw
and Dlneen, every man of the ten Is a
heavy-hitting, lons-dlstanco batter. So
far In tho season, those batters of the
scientific, Keeler-like class have not
been hitting anywhere near their maik,
McQraw being the only one to live up
to his reputation, having batted .400 In
twenty games. The great Keeler, of
Brooklyn, has batted ,2S4 so far;
Hughey Jennings, of Brooklyn, only
2R0, Dick Cooley, of Plttsbutg. .2W;
Thomas, of Philadelphia, .278; Fled
Clarke, the Pittsburg captain, always
considered a remarkably stiong batter,
has the wondei fully small record of
.142 In thlrty-ono games. The leagus
catchers are led by Itoblnson, of St.
Louis, formerly of Baltimore; Cooley,
of Pittsburg, leads tho first basemen;
DeMont, of Brooklyn, the second base
men, and Cross, of Brooklyn, tho third
bag guaidiuns. Dahlen, another Su
perlm. !s at the head of tho shortstops,
and Kelly, still another Brooklynlte,
stands first among tho leftfleldeis.
Young Heldilck, of St. Louis, leads the
centerllelders, and tho lightfielders are
led by Mercer, of New York, and
Donovan, of St. Louis. The New
Yorker In fourteen games fielded 1.000.
while Donovan in thirty-one games
also has a perfect record.
Monday's Philadelphia Ledger rec
ommends the purchase of Mike Doher
ty from Seranton to play third basa
while Wolverton Is Indisposed. It also
speaks of Johnnie Burns, the Wllkes
Barre second baseman, as a candidate
for big league honors, and mentions
three pitchers ripe for National league
honors: Owen, of Wllkes-Barre; Stlm
mel, of Allentown. and young Dan
i Kervln, of this city. Stlmmel 'has had
the most experience of the three, hav
ing played In minor league circles for
several yeais. Kervln, however, Is th2
most piomlsing player of the trio, a
in addition to being a crack young
twlrler, he fields his position in splen
did style, and Is one of the heaviest
batters In the league. On a big league
team with some veteran catcher like
Itoblnson, Magulie or Fnrrell to coach
him, ho ought to prove one of the
twirling finds of the year. Owen has
better curves than any of them and
splendid control, and has proved a
stumbling block to the heaviest hitters
of the league, all year.
Taylor, of Albany, one of the star
pltcheis of the New York State league,
Is a deaf mute.
The New York State league has al-

ready absorbed a very large number
of the Atlantic league players. Mur
phy, who had a brief experience at El
mlra, Is playing shortstop for Blng
hamton; Molesworth, also ot Elmira,
Is at Schenectady; "Evans, the promis
ing young Inflelder, who played with
the Athletics, Is covering third for Os
wego; Leldy and Kloff, of Newark,
and Kennedy, of tho Athletics, are at
Troy, and Catcher Coogan, of Heading,
Is enacting the backstop role at Cort
land. Bather, the; Wllkes-Barre catch
er, has been signed by Utlca, and Is
being used to do utility stunts. Other
Atlantic leaguers of past years, who
are local favorites, and are now In the
New York clicult, are Pete Eagan, for
many years a favorite outfielder In
this city, who Is now on the Portland
team, and Betts, who last year played
left Held for Reading, and for several
seasons In the Eastern league, plajed
In the Wllkes-Barre outfield, and also
pitched. Is with Utlca. He signed as
an outfielder and has been several
times given a turn on the rubber and
has done magnificent work.
Jlmmy " Jan, of this cltv, who has
been earning all sotts of honors at
second base for Elmira, and who at
the bteak up of that team went to Os
wego to play there, changed his mind
and has signed with Cortland Instead.
Jimmy Is playing the game of his life
this year and will prove one of the
fastest second basemen In the New
York league.
The briefest statement compatible
with good Judgment Is that Seranton
shut out Wllkes-Barre 8 to 0. Mllll
gan, the left-handed southpaw, had his
left-handed splko of his left shoe thor
oughly grounded and there was no
slip-up. Four hits were our sum to
tal and they were scattered along so
far apart they were forgotten. Can't
do much scoring on absolutely perfect
fielding and such a paucity of hits.
Even In the third, with three on bases
and nothing charged against us In the
out column, Mllllgan was Invincible.
Shannon better take Mllllgan home and
use him on his Pan-Am wrecked crew.
Wllkes-Bano Hecord.
That's what Harry Merrill had to
say about the game Burnham's men
put up against the Barons Monday.
Mllllgan Is needed at Buffalo, and It Is
surprising that Dan Shannon hasn't
pulled the string on him long before
this. The hard-hitting southpaw Is a
far better pitcher than many of tho
aged, sprained twlrlers hobbling
around tho American league, and with
good support would win the majority
of his games. Dan Shannon made a
mistake In leaving him go and Just as
big a one In dropping Knoll. The little
outfielder Iibb been fielding magnifi
cently and batting like, a Trojan over
since he put on a Seranton uniform,
and has been badly needed by the Bi
sons. Jack Shearon. who has been
taking Knoll's place, Is a hard sticker,
but not nearly tho all around player
that the little fellow Is. Knoll Is bat
ting harder this year than he did last.
He draws as many bases on balls as
ever, and can worry any pitcher In the
league Into presentlng-vhlm his bag,
and In addition has been making long
drives, mostly for extra bases, with a
frequency which made him one of the
most dreaded batsmen throughout the
circuit.
Jack O'Neill, who last year caught
for Seranton, and has recently been
doing splendid work behind the bat
for Utlca, broke his leg In a game last
week between Utlca and Schenectady,
while making a long slide to second
base. It Is likely that a benefit will
be given for him.
Buck Freeman has not been bat
ting In anything like his last year
form this season at Boston. The
Wllkes-Barre boy was secured by Se-
lee, who thought that he would prove
a great acquisition to the batting
strength of the team. His wonderful
record of twenty-five home runs last
season, It was expected, would bo
easily broken this year, on the small
Boston grounds. Buck opened the
season In a way that seemed to lend
credence to the glowing reputation ho
bore. In the first game of the year ho
was sent to bat for Pitcher Bailey and
hit the ball over tho fence. In the fol
lowing few games he drove out a cou
ple more four-baggers, and the Bean
eaters could see another pennant float
ing above tho grounds. He then let
down a bit, however, and has hit only
.286 In thirty-five games. The Boston
management has great confidence In
him, however, and he Is being given
a thorough trial In right garden. Once
Buck again strikes his pace the league
pitchers will have cause to tromble.

Among: the Pugs.
PROBABLY the pugilistic figure
which Is at present uttractlng
more local attention than any of
the lighters before the public Is the
stocky one of little Tetry McOovorn,
champion bantam weight pugilist of
the world, who will appear In the city
this afternoon. McGovcrn, since his
conquest of Pedlar Palmer, tho Eng
lish cluunjion, lias been knocking out
with staitllng rapidity and frequency
every man In his class he has ncnun
tered, and Is proving one of the great
est boxers of tho day. Ills most re
cent victory was lript Tuesday night,
when ho knocked out Tommy White,
of Chicago, in llf third tound of what
was to have been a 23-rouml bout,
easily putting his opponent out of the
fight, though the latter Is recognized
as a clever, aggresMve fighter and a
good ling general, and had the advan
tage, moreover, phvslca'ly, being taller
n'ld scvei.il poundo heaier. And yet
this whirlwind of n fighter, this little
demon, as ho Is lapldly becoming
known, Is a little lc-lluw, about live
feet two Inches tall, and weighs 120
pounds. Ho Is piobably the greatest
I pugilistic favorite In the country out
side of the big fallow 8. and even at
that would give the champion heavy
weights a run for popularity
