Hi: record of Pitcher Ralph Miller,
of the Hartford club in six suc
cessive Banies on the Hartford
grounds lias not been equaled
this Benson and without the
sllfthtest doubt It will stand us a let
ord for the Eastern lenKiio for -several
seasons to come. Up to the present
wrltinK Miller has appeared on the
slab In six games for the club on the
local grounds. He has met Springfield
twice, and Montreal, Rochester and
Syracuse one game each. Sprlnglleld
and Syiacuse were whitewashed. Ro
chester and Montreal scored one run
each, both on errors, Sprlnglleld scoied
two tallies on the second meeting nnd
Worcester did the same. Five of the
games were victories for HnrtonJ, the
last with Sprlnglleld being given to the
Ponies on errors. Not an earned run
has been scored on thW twirling on
the local grounds this season. With
the exception of a game In Worcester
and Spiinglleld, when his team was
whitewashed, Miller has not lost a
game except by one run. Hartford
Olobo.
The Worcester club of the Kastern
league expects to clear $10,000 on the
s"UHon. This Is more than several Na
tional league clubs will make.
Dan Kcrvln.tlie young Huffaln pitch-ci-.
looks like a winner. He has now
taken about live straight for the III
snns and will probably be gobbled by
ii big league team ere long. Chicago
N'ws.
Kern, the solemn looking prnlrl
pitcher, Is doing a lot of traveling this
tenson. He opMU'd the year with IStif
nlo, was releaj-ed. pitched about one
game for Cleveland, was released again
and has now turned up with Omaha.
Osc Schreckengost Is playing a grca,.
g.ime for Ituffalo. He Is batting blue
! ireaks and Is a terror to the pltcheis
of the Aineilcan league. He Is ued in
a gineral utility man, but he Is always
In the game. When not playing behind
the bat, he plays the Initial sack or a
place Is made for him in the outlleld.
Ills bludgeon has won many a vlctoiy
tor the tall-ender of the minor organi
sation. Pittsburg Chronicle-Telegraph.
Arlle Latham has been slgnd by
Cincinnati to act as coach for the rest
of the season. This savors a little bit
of the hank-panky, but just the same
It Is a good move on the part of Cin
cinnati. Theie never was a quicker
wltted ball player than Latham. He
111 be of great use to ihe Reds on
the coaching lines.
President J. 11. Kartell, of the State
league, who arrived in the city yester
1 ly, hnd a conference last evening
v. lth Manager Webelnrker and Krancls
Moloney, of the Maple Avenue Kail-
fad company of Hlmiru on the Mib
Ject of the transfer of the Oswego
team In the State league to Klmlr.t.
Mr. K.irrell demanded $1,000 from the
K.linira mm to meet the liabilities of
the Oswego club up to the present
time. This was not acceptable to the
other two gentlemen so the negotia
tions were declared off. Rase ball af
i.i Irs In Oswego are in a very bad way
Jtnt at present as will be seen from the
f I 'owing fiom yesterday's Oswego
Times: "The situation is gi owing
more critical and In case something l
not done soon, the directors will have
a striking bae ball nine on their
hands. A number of the players de
scribed the situation and said that the
members of the team have no nmbltion
to piny ball. They are receiving no
money for their work and they do not
have the heart to get on a diamond and
1 lay ball when they lecelve no money
for it." Ulnghamton Leader.
Among the Pugs.
INCH George Slier published a dope
story in a Chicago paper In which
he attempted to show that Terry
McOovern had earned and kept nearly
$100,000 dining his eaieer as a fighter,
s.-veral sporting writers have been at
tempting to llguie up Fiank Krne's
wealth. It lias been istlmated all the
way from $10,000 to $7.',000. As a mat
ter of fact, Hme has about $1'.',000 to
show for his several tights. He did not
get the fabulous sum he has been ra
poited to have neclved as his share
of the Madison Sqtl.ue Garden lecelpU
the other night. Harry lirown, of this
city, who lepresentcd Krne nnd
"counted up" after the light, showei
mo the box ofllee receipt and It showed
that the amount taken In was $.10,200.
This sum was .s'dlt between the club
and the tlghteis and Krne and McGov
ein. therefoie, nct-ied $7,5u0 each as
th' ir share. Buffalo Times.
Joe Walio't, who has for many
years been lighting under the manage
ment of Tom O'Rourke, declares that
hereafter he will be his own manager.
O'Rourke wanted Wnlcott to sign to
tight Tommy West. Walcott refused
to light until October, whereupon
O'Rourke, It Is alleged, told Walcott
he was "no good." Wnlcott took of
ense nnd declared that hereafter he
would make his own matches and be
his own mnnnger, and wanted nothing
further to do with O'Rourke. "I have
split with O'Rourke," said. Walcott,
Strathmoro and was bred by John
Stratley, the well-known horse breeder
of Virginia. At the horse show In
Madison Squnre Garden In 1807 this
animal took first prize with ease In
the hurdle, high Jump race, clearing
a hurdle nt 5 feet 2 Inches.
Three years ago "Doc" was sold on
the nuctlon block at the American
Horse Exchange In New York city for
$16,000 to Mayor Nolan, of Albany.
One yenr later Mr. Nolan's son died
and he sold every horfe In his ex
tensive stables, except "Doc," who
was sent to New York city to await a
buyer from London. The buyer never
came, nnd the horse was finally sold
In July, 1839, nt the American Horse
ICxchango for his board. Frank Hol
gate was the purchaser and hq secured
him at a low ilgure.

Delaware and Hudson Improvements
The now Delaware and Hudson
freight house near Market street is
almost completed and It looks very
attractive. The first floor Is to be
usjd exclusively for the storage of
freight and an oltlco fur the telegraph
operators. The second lloor will be
used by the clerks and cashier nnd the
third Is foi the storage of books and
other valuables connected with the de
partment. The interior Is nicely painted and
varnished. The rooms are well lighted
and the view from tin upper story
is splendid. In a few days the work
will have been completed nnd then
everything will be conducted in a more
systematic manner. Lack of room
prevented in the past, but In future

Prescript
" I atn so grateful to you for your ad
vice," says Mrs. Sidney I). Oakes, of
Whittnell, Pittsylvania Co., Vn. " When
I commenced your medicines I had been
treated by different doctors for three
mouths or more, but would only receive
partial relief for a short while and then
wouiu tie worse man oeiore. was con
fined to uiy bed most of the time. At
the time I commenced your treatment
my left side was completely paralyzed.
Had no det.ire to eat anything; bowels
costive all the time. Nerves were all
unstrung, so I could not bear the least
noise. I nlso suffered from diseased
ovaries nnd female weakness. Dut thanks
to my Maker and you, after following
your advice, I am able to do all my wash
ing, sewing and house work In general.
I haven't had a 6pasm in two months.
Left off medicines about one month
ago. Didn't think it necessary to con
tinue them longer. I have taken about
seven bottles of Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription, seven of the 'Golden
Medical Discovery,' and two vials of
Pleasant Pellets.' I heartily recommend
those medicines to all suffering as I was."
"anil any matches I make in the fu
ture I will make myself. I am my ow n
mnnaKer from now on and Mr.
O'llouike has notlilnK to do with nnv
matches I make. I never had a co:i
tract with him and can draw uway
whenever I want to. He has been sore
at me because I was sick, and he
wanted me to IlKht West, but I am not
icady to HkIH yet. When I get ready
1 vi 111 make a match."
Hob l'"ltzslmmons, although he has
been nradtcally out of tho game since
his defeat by Jim Jeffries, more than
n year ago, expects to prove that he is
still very much alive when he meets
Ous nuhlln on Aug. 10. The C'ornlsh
iiinn Is training at Hergen Bench for
his light with the "Akron Olant." lie
has titled up quarters a short distance
from his home, and Is working as he
never worked befoie In preparation for
n battle, says the Journal. Ituby Itob
ert evidently lias much respect for th
man who robbed Sharkey of his laur
els, and if he falls to defeat the young
Ohloan It will not be due to lark of
discretion. Fltz knows that a victory
over Uuhlln would nssuie hlni a return
match with Jeffries for the champion
ship. Therefoie, he looks upon his
coming battle as one of the most im
poitant engagements of his career.
Champion James Jeffries, while play
ing with a bulldog on tho beach at At
lantic City the other day, was attacked
by the biute, who bit his hand, leav
ing the pi Int of his tt eth In the llesh.
Several fi lends dragged the dog away.
The bite is nothing serious.
George McFadden and Jack O'Hrlen,
who meet before the Twentieth Cen
tury Athletic club at Madison Squar
Garden next Monday night In a twenty-five
round bout at 1X3 pounds, are
both looking forward to meeting Terry
McGovern on the same conditions un
der which the MeGovern-lCrne match
was fought. Ever since the men be
gan training for the coming fight they
have had tills Idea In sight, nnd have
been reducing weight, so ns to see If it
is possible for them to get down to 1!!S
pounds. They nre now tinder the light
weight limit, 133 pounds, and feel sure
that they can make IliS If McGovern

NEW wrinkle In billiards Is de
scribed as follows by the Chicago
coriespondent of the Weekly Bll-
llardlst: "The Innovation of two red
object balls and one white cue ball Is
being discussed by local experts, and
opinion Is divided as to the advisabil
ity of the propose., change. Argument
concerning the matter Is sometimes
heated, many maintaining that It would
take away some of the attractive fea
tures of tho game, while others con
tend that it would add to the Interest.
The leading experts have not made up
their minds whether they would wel
come the change, and are waiting to
see what Jacob Sehaefer has to say
concerning It. 'The Wizard' has been
asked to give the change a practical
and thorough test, and has consented
to do so. Ills decision will probably be
final. If Jake thinks it Is a 'gool
thing,' we expect to see the red pre
dominate in billiard balls. If Jake
shakes his head, It will continue to bo
two whites nnd one red for all regular
billiards. 'It looks all right on paper,'
is the way one expert puts the mat
ter. Theie Is no doubt that it would
gain two Important advantages. It
would entirely do away with the possi
bility of playing with the wrong ball,
and would leave the defeated player
minus the excuse that ho did not gain
his favorite Ivory when he banked for
choice of balls.'
" 'It's about the same as the regular
game,' says Maurice Daly. There's
no difference that I can see, and I don't
think it is likely to supersede the
present style of two whites and one
led. The only advantage It has Is that
there Is no difference whatever In the
ball tho players use, both using the
snme one, but billiards Isn't down so
fine that using different balls makes
much difference. However, what we
want now is tournaments, whatever
the style of game.' "
