LOCAL TEAM DISBANDS. wanton's Fine Aggregation of Ball Tossers Aro Now Scattored All Over tho Country. Darkness has fallen on the hearts of the few true base ball enthusiasts of the vicinity nnd the man who follows tho game Is sad, for Saturday night the crack aggregation of ball players who have been representing this city on the diamond as It never before was represented, disbanded, nnd now aro rapidly scattering to nil parts of the country. It was Scranton's misfortune this yenr to enter aiengue In which the other tennis were so utterly out classed by the local players that nil contests seemed lint and uninteresting. In addition there were mistakes In the league management from the start which rendered Its existence unstable and uncertain from the very beginning. One thing must be said, however. The unfortunate condition of affairs In Scrnnton wan In no way the fault of the manager, Walter W. Burnham. Never In tne history of local base ball has Scranton had a man at the helm of the team who In such nn Incredibly short time gathered together such a splendid tenm, who governed them with such excellent executive ability and to whose foresight nnd shrewd hcadedness more thnn anything else can be attributed the fine place that the team attained in the league. Tho board of directors at a meeting recent ly held expressed their utt'er satisfac tion at the way he managed tho team, and dcclnrcd their willingness to re cngnge him nt the next opening for n Scrnnton ball nine. It wns his misfortune that the league proved such a failure as a base ball organization, as It Is nlso the misfortune of all local lovers of tho game. After tho Atlantic league broke up a determined effort was made to secure an Eastern league franchise, In spite of the fact that a berth In that circuit would entail far greater expense and would require a very large sum of money to be advanced at the very outset. All of the players are In receipt of offers from tenms, but of them all, Mike Doherty Is the mo.st ambitiously fixed, Inasmuch as he will break Into the National league. He has accepted New York terms and will report for duty Wednesday and take Hickman's place at third base. Doherty's many friends here wish hlrft good luck In the big league, and his work will bo carefully followed by them all. Knoll was considering an offer from Cleveland, of the American league, but at the lost moment had a disagree ment and now, with Catcher Toft, has signed with the Springfield Eastern league team. Kervln goes to Buffalo In the American league, and MUllgan, who was farmed to Scranton by the Buffalo team, has been recatled by Manager oJan Shannon. Manager Ar thur Irwin, of the Syracuse Eastern league team, was In town Saturday and would be very much pleased to have the heavy hitting southpaw on his staff. In case Shannon does not use him, he may be farmed there. Ken nedy will pitch for Albany. "Old Boy" Shefller will go to Bristol, In the Con necticut State league, and Catcher Millerick may go to that league. Pirate - Brlen hns several good of fers and may go to Oswego. Dick Knox Is also In receipt of several offers and may go to Youngstown, O. Short stop O'Brien will probably find a berth In tho New 'York State league, and Roeber Mclntyre Is In receipt of com munications from teams In the South ern league and the New York State league, WILKES-BARRE SHUT OUT. Big Crowd Saw Pitchers Battle Bo- twoen Owen and Milligan Mc- Govorn's Livoly Bout with Daly Saturday afternoon's game at Ath letic park was notable for two things, tho presence on the grounds of Terry McGovern, champion bantam and featherweight pugilist of the world, and tho fact that the contest Itself was one of the greatest pltcners' battles ever seen on the local diamond. Owen, the crack Wllkes-Harrean, twirled for the Barons, and MUllgan, our Buffalo farm hand, did the honors for Scranton. With magnificent sup port, both pitchers did grand work, and In the course of the entire game but two clean hits were made, both these being banged out by Hub Knoll. The little outfielder was the only-local player that had his eye on the ball, and made both of our hits, a hot single and a corking three-bagger. NIeoi and Clymer are credited with tho Wllkes Barre hits, but neither of them weiu clean. NIcol's came at the very start of the game and was an awkward bounder, which Doherty and Jack O'Rrlen both handled rather poorly. Clymer's hit wasn't of the purest vari ety, either. A remarkable feature of the game was the fact that In the entire nine innings but twenty-eight men faced MUllgan, in all but one Inning tho WUkes-Barreans going out In order. Four men were left on bases on botn sides, three Scrantonlans dying on the bags and one Baron. The fielding fea tures of the game wero contributed by Knoll, Clymer and Shoch. Knoll made p. great catch of a little fly over short stop, and Shoch made a magnificent catch of a terrific line drive from Old Boy Shelller's bat which looked good for at least two bases. Tho aggress ive "Mercy Derby Day" Clymer was as full of ginger and tobaseo sauce as usual, and raised strenuous objections to every decision of the umpire. Clymer played a fine game, In the first Inning retiring all three batsmen. At the end of the fifth Inning tho diamond was cleared nnd Terry Mc Govern, accompanied by his sparring partner, Andy Daly, of lioston; Sam uel Harris, his manager, and Jack Skelly, of this city, appeared upon the diamond. The two bantam weights were introduced to the crowd by Skelly, nnd then, after shaking hands, pro ceeded to spar. The bout was far dif ferent from the very tame exhibitions recently seen In this city. The little fellows went nt each other with a ferocity which looked as though they meant business. They pummeled each other for all they were worth, and after thoy had been nt It awhile, both began to show signs of wear, and Daly began to emit a series of snorts and wheezing sounds, which could be heard throughout the entire grandstand.. In the third round Terry opened the cut In his opponent's left ear by a vicious Jab, an at the conclusion of the round, Twlrler MUllgan, who was seconding Mr. Daly, had his hands busy, taking care of his principal. The entire four rounds were full of ginger, and the big the llttlo fighters. The score of tho game follows: sen ANTON. Ail. it. it. o. a. n. Knoll, If 4 0 2 2 0 0 J. J.

Tho show Is greatly enlarged for this season nnd presents many, distinct novelties, nnd nil the way through Is refreshingly new and up-to-date.

There Is nothing of a tiresome nature In the entire show. Seats ure provided for 3,500 persons, and the best of order is preserved about the exhibition. Another commendable feature Is the absence of fakirs and people with catch-pennydevlces, every thing being legitimate and moral. Th-j engagement In Scranton will continue until Wednesday night.

J. NOHTHUP, Secretary. A house at 165 South Bromley avenue, owned by airs. Kenning, was set on fire, about 12.45 o'clock, and the upper part of the building was badly dam aged by the flames, -while the lower part escaped with but slight harm done. Sirs. Kllzabeth Reeso occupied tho upper part of tho building, and Syl vanus Savltts lived on the ground floor. The fire started In Mrs. Reese's apart ments, and Its cause Is a mystery. The flames had gained good headway before the arrival of the AVest Scran ton fire companies, and nearly all of Mrs. Reese's household effects were destroyed, damage to the extent of about $600 being done. The loss on the property Itself will come to about $200. The flames luckily did not spread to any extent, and but little damage was done Mr. Savltts' apartments. Tho fire companies, In a short, whllo after their arrival, had tho flames completely under control. NAVAL OFFICERS' PAY. Teutonic Commanders Receive Less Than Their British. Contemporar ies. From the Leisure Hour. It will be Interesting If we compare the status and pay of German officers of the navy with those serving In the Hfltlsh marine. A German admiral of the fleet receives 600 per annum, a free furnished house, firing and light, 80 for carriage hire and tnble monsy and allowances, an additional .CflOO. Ills total Income, therefore, Is l,fiS0 per annum. A British admiral on the home command receives from3,420 to 2,067. The Gorman captain's salary Is :!00, that of tho Englishman 110 to 020. A German lieutenant In com mand has 195, ai English lieutenant in the same position 201 to 271. A chief I---ctor of machinery nfloat in tho Drltlsh navy has 63!), In Germany only 3f.O. A British fleet surgeon has 193 to 602, a German 390, It will thus be seen that British ofllcers, all through, are In a better pecuniary po sition than those In the German fleet. German mailno ofllcers are usually taken from the same rank as In Eng land. Before becoming a midshipman, or sea cadet, as he Is called In Germany, the youth who Intends to devote him self to tho navy must be able to pass a satisfactory examination on the level to which n fifth term boy at any -English public school has attained. His first year's service Is spent In study nnd military exercises ashore, the study of the English language being n prominent part of nis work. He Is then placed on a training ship for a year, nnd after parsing a satisfactory examination he is removed to the marlns school for another year. Tho technical knowledge cblalned here Is then employed for two years at sea, and should the candidate for the naval proffsfdon prove himself competent he Is promoted at th end of theao two years to the rank of lieutenant. Dur ing the first ten years of a German naval officer's career his Income falls short of his expenditure by a sum of 500; that Is to hay, In addition to his Toy ho requires, on an average, 50 a year to keep hm. In the British service the average expenditure of nn officer In addition to his pay is 93 a year. ' Getting the Facts. "My iwetheart gave rr.c a pair of allvrrbacked brushes that cost i5."
