COURSEN MATTHEWS0N LETTING DOWN TERRIBLE STRAIN IS TELLING UPON HIM. He Has Won but Two of the Last Six Games He Has Pitched-One of These Victories Was Against St. Louis, When He Shut That Heavy Hitting Aggregation Out Without a Run or a Hit Has tho Record for tho Season to Dato. Tho vicissitudes of thu gicat game of base ball have been never mom clearly Illustrated than In the case ot Christy Matthew son, of Kactoryvllle, Hucknell collegian, ex-Scranton Young Men's Christian association player, and known vnilously to fame through the medium of New York papers as "Mut tle" and "Mauser Hall Mat." Matihetvson's career has been watch ed tluoughoul the season by hundieds of Scranton enthusiasts who lememher tho tall young athlete who used to shoot the hall over the plate out at the ball patk, and who used to occa sionally vlgotostily dent the fence with a long dtlve, when at bat. When he started the season by scoring eight sttalght victories, four of which weie shutouts, theie was wild commotion In the base ball wot Id. The Kac lotyv Hie boy was declined by many veletaii ex-playets to be a won der a mat v el, I'mplre Frank Dwyet, himself foimorly a pitcher of no mean lepiiie, going as far as to say that tho Hucknell student was the gteatest t wilier that ever footed tho rtlbbei. Matthewsons fame extended thtough out tho National League circuit, and the pieliminary anoniincenient that he would pitch, invariably caused the di mensions of the attending ctowd to as sume record-bt caking dimensions. As tho season piogressed, however, Matthevvson began to lose, the teul hle stialn of the eaily part of the sea son evidently beginning to tell upon him, and of his last six games, he has won but two. The first game of the six w ts "Mauser Hall Mat's" gieatest victory. It was against the St. I.ouls team, which was the Hist team to te Klstet a defeat against him, and whose memlieis had Invatlably managed to solve Ills choicest curves On this oc casion, how e vol. ho had them guessing, and blanked what Is uno,uesllonably tho greatest nggtcgatlnil of battels In the count! without a hit or tun. Matthevvson has been unfoitunate In having behind him a teHin sttong neither at the bat nor In the field. In the eail part of the season, New Yoik lead the league for several weeks, but It was only thinugh the phenomenal pitching of Matthew son and the clever woik of his two box mates, Ph.vle and Taylor, with occasionally a fantastic batting streak to help along. Had he been with a team like Pittsburg or St I.ouls, theie seems little doubt that he would have led the league's box-men I'tobahly all of the games Matthew -son won weie victories due to himself alone, as In few Instances did the team bat behind him. He has had to exett himself to tho utmost, and as La result In number of strikes and shut outs ho loads tho National League, which Is no mean achievement In a year when good pitchers have neon as numerous as the berries of the Held A point which has aroused consider able comment thtotighout tho year has been the of ton-discussed question. "Is tho New York tonm 'knocking" Matthew son?" The assertion has been made bofoto In those columns that fiom all uppeaianios the (Slants vety decidedly have given an icy shoulder to the young collegian, and facts all year have botne cut this claim In tho games In which Matthevvson pitched, safe hits weie few and scar ified, while the instant any other Now Yoik pitcher wont into the box every man on tho team fiom Ceoigo Davis to Sammy Stang did his best to pound the cover off the ball. This was vivid ly illustiated during tho eaily pait of the season, when Matthevvson lost a magnificently pitched game against Cincinnati because the team made about the hits behind hint, and tho eij next day the same team used up all tho Hods' pltchei.s by making the batting lecoid of the season, something like thlity odd hits. The conduct of the Gothamlto players towards tho winning pitcher and ilnonlcler or tho team has been, like that of Hret llarte's fat -famed Hea then Chinee, decidedly "peculiar." OBITUARY. MHS.

Car in tho Middle of a Train Jumped the Track on the Lackawanna and Derailed Six Others, A most peculiar wietk occurred be tween S and fi o'clock .vcsteiday after noon on tho main line of the Lacka wanna railroad at the southerly end of Monroe avenue. Seven empty coal cars were detailed, but no one was In jured. At the point where the wieck oc elli led there is a switch connecting the west-hound ttack with a thltd track next to the east-bound Hack All li regular or wildcat tialns entering the yards from the east take this switch and enter on the third track. A wildcat ttaln of empty Rondnlns fiom Port Mortis, In. charge of F.n glneer Heller and Conductot Coslello, entered the switch sboitly after 6 o'clock, and nine cms had ciossed onto tho thiid tiack Its safety when the tenth car. for some as yet unaciount ablo reason, Jumped the track. The engineer felt the pull, but before he could stop tho engine, six other cars had followed the unlucky tenth car oft the tiaik and were plii! in r. pro miscuous heap, both on and alongside the ttack. 'Phe w tec king car was hnstll called Into set vice, but despite the extra ef fotts which weie put fotth, tho west bound track was blocked for thirty five minutes and the east-bound track for about an hour and a half It was late at night befoio the w locked cats, some of which weie badly damaged, had been lemoved. WHY HE SIGNED THE PLEDGE. Six Reasons Given by Dean Farrar for Total Abstinence. One of the most brilliant of. modern HtltMi i hut ohmon, Ftederck William Kauai, since ISO's dean of Canteibury and for many yea is chaplain to the lato Queen Vlctoila, lately gave six loasons for sicnlng a pledge of total abstinence, which constitute a most Impulsive nigument for temperance. They follow : "Kit st 1 became convinced that the use of ah oho in any foim was not a necessity. I saw that whole na tions have lived and llouilshed with out It. I believed that the whole race of man had existed for centuilcs pre vious to Us dlscovei. "Second I whs Httuok by the Indis putable fact ttri.it in Kngland fifty thousand inhabitants of our pilsons, accustomed to strong ill Ink all their lives, and the maJoOty of thorn brought Into prison directly or Indl leetly by It, could be, and woto, from tho moment of their lniptlsomment, absolutely depilved of It, nr only without loss, but with entire gain to their personal health. 'Thltd I derived fiom tho tecoirl testimony of our most eminent phy sicians that the use of alcohol Is a subtle and manltold sotitce of ills ease even to thousands who use it In quantities convenlcntl deemed moderate: alo that all the young, and all the healthy, and all who sleep well and eat well do not lequlie II, and are boter without it. "Fourth Then the caiefully diawn .statistics of many Insurance societies convinced me that total abstinence, so fin fiom shoitenlng life distinctly and undisputnbly conduced to longev ity. Fifth Then I accumulated pioof that dilnk Is so far fiom helng lequls Ite to physical sttength or Intellectual force, that many of our gieatest ath letes, fiom tho clays of Samson on watd. "whose dilnk was only of the crystal brook," have achieved with out alcohol mightier feats than have over been achieved with It. "Sixth And besides all this. I knew that the life of man always gains by abolishing needless expenses and avoiding aitltlclal wants. Henjamin Franklin said, a bundled yeats ago, 'Tempeianco puts wood on tho lite, meat In the ban el, Hour In tho tub, money In the purse, ctedlt in the coun try, clothes on the balms, Intelligence In the lualn and bpiilt in tho consti tution.'
