ing. "It's not the same team we hail when
' we done the Crescents up a few weeks
ago," said Johnnie Gordon, ot Scran
ton, as he frisked about third 'base,
while his team was practicing on Duf
fy's field yesterday morning. Hut It's
all right; we expect to do a thing or
two before we got through here to
day." It might be said now Hint Johnnie
and his white and purple stockings
have gone home, that the team he look
back with htm was neither the same
that accidentally defeated the Cres
cents a few weeks ago, nor "the same
that he brought up Curbondale way on
the glorious Fourth, for it went back
crestfallen and home-sick, leaving be
hind the scalps of two victories that
hung on the Crescents' belts, and tak
ing awuy nothing but pleasant thoughts
of the hospitality of Carbondale.
"Our pets" did nobly. They knocked
Johnnie Gordon's youngsters, the
scrappy youngsters from Slocum flats,
Silver hill, Mlnooka and the Notch,
higher than Gilroy's kite. They won
In the morning and they won in the
nfternoon and they could win In the
night, only wo haven't got at Lawson's
portable electric light business to light
up Duffy's Held. Sir Richard Fleming
lias no further reason to bury himself
In Archbald borough; he wants to move'
up to Carbondale; the pitcher and ball
player that he is belongs in this atmos
phere. '
And "Owney" McAndrew, "our Own
ey," If he continues to win games, as
he has, we shall have to buy him a
castle on the lakes of Klllarney.
And the hard-hitting, merciless slug
. gers of "our pets!" What shall we
say of them? But what's the use in
trying. In the words of our friend,
"Chuck" Connors, "we are all in." We
1 confess that our ambitious pen falls us
In our purpose. With the multitude, we
keep aloof and exclaim with them: "By
the gods! But ye are great!"
Honesdale, dear Honesdale! 'Twould
Jo your heart good to see the national
came as "our pets" plays it. But don't
be alarmed, you are not doomed to
disappointment. On the contrary,
there's a treat In store for you. "Our
pets" will be over Honesdale way on
the- 12th. Then, well then' you shall
see, and your eyes shall be opened.
The first game, not so interesting,
was won by the score of 15-3. Awful,
Isn't it? In the afternoon the game
was a corker," 6-4; one of the best of
the season.
The First Game.
The morning game could not be said
to be interesting; It was from the Cres
cents' standpoint, Inasmuch as it gave
them splendid opportunities for fatten
ing their batting averages, and inci
dentally "our pots' " loyal supporters
were given abundant chances to make
Fourth of July hurrahs over the good
work of Carbondale sporting pride.
When you say the Crescents put on
their batting clothes, you're through
, with the story of the game. Good field
ing? Yes, all that there was to be
done, which was not a great deal.
Fleming, of Archbald, a White Oak
man by birth, but a Carbondale ball
player at heart, was In as fine a mood
as 'Squire Glldea, when he deals out
his solemn-like justice and he pitched
a game that was the most radical
base-ball crank's fancy. It must have
been an accident that Fleming Flem
ing of the White Oak borough was
born In Archbald, for he plays all the
world like a Carbondale player. But
whether or not It was fate that mis
directed him to Archbald, he's good
enough hall player and good enough
from any standpoint, too, to belong to
Carbondale.
Fleming Fleming of Archbald
pitched what the crankiest of the
cranks said was a great game. And
they told the truth, and without the
aid of cannon crackers to make It the
more forcible. His was superb form
and In the team behind him he found a
response that was sorely distressing to
Johnnie Gordon and his South Slde-
lumuuKii una ieggett ureeK youngs-
ters.

make up the Greater Scranton, know
what It was to hit Fleming as ho Im
agined he could when the Archbald
knight of the spheroid doubted up in
the first Inning, parted with some of
tho essence of-Uattlo-ux, the biggest
chunk for G cents, and sailed a hall over
the plate that was as noisy as the
swishing of the tnll of it Kansas cy
clone. Before a couple of Innings
passed Johnnie Gordon and his taddles
were asking what time tho next train
left for Scranton.
Six of the flist twelve men that came
up were struck out, then Sir Richard
eased up a bit, after ho got a lino on
Gordon's crowd of plng-pongers, nnd
they made a few cuts. They got six In
nil and Johnnie Gordon, Gordon of the
noisy purple and white stockings, got
two of these himself. One was n
"peach," a two-bagger than was good
and clean. Seven men In all fanned.
In front of Sir Richard was Loftus,
llko the Rock of Gibraltar, when tho
hot ones were sailed Into him, and as
agile as a cat, when It was necessary
to throw .one of Johnnie Gordon's men
out at second, third or nny old base.
His playing was gilt-edge, and though
he hit the ball only once,, it was be
cause Gordon's pitcher struck him
twice with the ball, One was a ter
rible rap on tho side of the hend that
would have put a less plucky player
out of business for the day.
While "our pets" put up a good field
ing game, It was their batting that was
the feature of the contest. Murray
batted, Monnhan hit, Cuff slugged, Em
mett also smashed, Monahan, all of
them got credit, for a hit, more or less.
Murray and Cuff had the honors for
batting, each having three hits. Four
teen hits In all were gotten from Man
gan of Gordon's team.
The team work of the Scranton, etc.,
team was of the Sweltzer-cheese va
riety, chock full of holes. It would be
sort of rubbing It In to dilate upon It,
so we'll mercifully pass It by.
Four runs were gotten In the first
Inning on hits by Murray and Hart,
two bases on balls, a hit by pitcher and
an error.
In the third three more were 'added
by a lilt by Cuff, another by Roessler,
a dead hit by Loftus and an error. A
base on balls, and three singles by Mon
ahan, Cuff and Emmett brought two'
more. One more was added In the
fifth, three in the sixth on singles by
Murray and Monahan, a dead ball and
a base on balls. The last two came In
the seventh when Murray and Roessler
singled and a few errors were made by
the Gordonltcs.
The Gordonltes made one in the sec
ond on singles by Centre-fielder Man
Ban Connery. A single by 'Hannon in
the sixth aided by an error by Gal
lagher let in another lun, and in the
ninth errors by Murray and Gallagher
let In another run, the last of the game.

The Afternoon Game.
The nfternoon game was away ahead
of the earlier contest, and was well
worth the efforts of the 3,000 persons
who lined tho Held, It was snappy, full
of ginger and abounded In sharp field
ing that kept it from lagging at any
point.
As In the morning game, it was tho
Crescents' batting that was the fea
ture. They had their batting clothes
on since morning, nnd they landed
here, there nnd several other places on
tho ball until it looked like a 10-Inch
gun on n battleship working overtime.
Tho fusllade kept up until they had
fourteen hits, the same as In the morn
ing. The Crescents should nnd would
have had more runs but for reckless
base-running, a weakness that should
be remedied at once. Cuff rind Emmett
sustained themselves In this game b"
taking the batting honors.
BrcAndrew, "Our Owney," had his
strong arm with him nnd kept tho Gor
don youngsters down to seven hits.
McMnnnmy, from tho "Notch," was
the Scranton laddie whom the Crcs
cents soaked so terribly,
The score was close enough, C4.
GOING TO PHILADELPHIA.
Joseph Gllhool Secures Place with
the Coriespondence Schools.
Joseph Gllhool, one of tho town's best
known young men, has accepted a posi
tion with the International Correspond
ence schools In Its field force and will
leave In a short time to take up tho
woi U.
aft", Gllhool's location will bo in
Philadelphia, which Is perhaps the best
field for this work ut tho present, The
opportunltles nro so good there that tho
schools' officers huvo transferred to
that district Captain Thomas Murphy,
who left tho Carbondale district this
week, and John Drawn, of this city,
who has been a supervisor In this sec
tion. Mr, Gllhool Is, therefore, quite
fortunate In being assigned a place In'
tho Philadelphia district, lie Is tho son
of J. n. Gllhool, tho hardware mer
chant, nnd has had a business train
Ins In his father's store that will servo
him well In his new work.'
Memorial Bark Yesterday,
Memorial park wns at Its height of
beauty yesterday; no day this year wns
It so fair to behold, a fact which was
all the more happy since t was Inde
pendence day. While the lawn and the
shrubs wero their brightest under tho
gentle Inllueneo of the warm sunshine
utter tho continued rain, tho big clrcu
lur bed at the eastern entrance was a
blooming picture of beauty. The whole
park indicated In every corner and in
every living thing within the fulthful
and devoted care lavished on it by
Pnrkcopcr" .Richard Udy, High above
the heality spot floated tho immense
park department Alnerlean Hag.
A pleasing circumstance of the park's
glorious appearance was that Its beau
ties were enjoyed during the day by a
multitude of persons, Including many
strangers, who either strolled through
or sought the comfort ot a rest on the
benches. A host of children gleefully
romped about the park during the day.
THE QUIETEST FOURTH
IN TOWN'S HISTORY
Tho Often Repeated Saying, "Noth
ing Doing," Aptly Describes tho
Solemn Stillness of tho Day The
Condition Was Fairly Depressing.
The Observances.
t
"This Is the quietest Fourth I've seen
In Carbondale, and I've been here this
fifty years," or whatever It might be,
was the universal comment among
Carbondale's old settlers, yesterday, as
they looked about and stirred them
Bclves to shukc off the sort of depress
ing feeling thnt the quiet and stillness
of the dny were certnlnly productive of.
No Sunday could be more quiet than
was the day; hi fact, any Sunday In
Carbondale had more of nlr ot life than
.did tho Fourth of July, Tho day was
positively gloomy. It was characteris
tic Fourth of July weather, but It was
not a characteristic day by any means.
The streets were all but deserted during
the day, and there was scarcely a boom
of a cannon, or tho snap of a cracker
to keep alive the fact of tho day It was.
There was quite an- exodus to nearby
plnces. Lake Lodore was the greatest
attraction, perhaps, a number ot car
loads to the lake over the Mooslcs. The
attractions of the drive to Crystal lake
and the benutlful lake itself claimed a
host of visitors. Poyntelle, on the
mountain top, took a number of excur
sionists from Carbondale and vicinity,
while others sought the attractions held
out by drives Into the country and by
the trolley ride to Forest City.
The ball gamp on Duffy's field was
the chief magnet in the morning, draw
ing thither thirty-five hundred or four
thousand cranks. In the evening the
streets were filled with promtnaders,
who wore joined later In ,the evening
by the returning throng of excursion
ists. ,
The only function or social enterprise
of any character during the day was
the ice cream social at the home of
John Moon, on South Church street,
under the auspices of the Ladles' Aid
society of tho Berean Baptist 'church.
WERE OTHER HOLD-UPS.
Two Others Stopped Before Last
Monday Night No Clue Yet.
Since tho highway robberies of Mon
day and Wednesday night came to
light It has developed that other men
were stopped presumably by the same
parties, though tho hold-up in each case
was more like tho Ben Fancher case,
not a very desperate effort to extort
money.
A man named Hosle was stopped in
the Dundaff section a few nights be
fore Fred Miller was held up. The
highwaymen commanded him to "shell
out." "Oh, stop your fooling,' said
Hosie, as ho brushed the men aside and
wont on leaving them behind' In mute
astonishment.
A young man named McDonald, was
out calling tho same or next evening,
when some men stopped him and insist
ed on tobacco or money. They got
nothing, for ho had neither.
Each of these men did not. treat the
Intercepting of them very seriously, and
put It down as the Idle practice of
some of tho sports of the neighborhood
who were out on a kind of a lnrk.
Tho police have not mot with much
success In apprehending the par
ticipants of Monday and Wednesday
nights episodes. This is due largely to
the fact that the victims do not seem
to give a good description of the rob
bers. THE DRAMATIC SEASON.
Manager Dan Byrne, of Grand, Home
with. Good Contracts.
Manager D. P. Byrne, of the Grand,
arrived from Now York city, late
Thursday night, where he has been for
over a month, booking attractions for
the coming theatrical season.
Mr. Byrne has been a successful as
possible in the face of tho fact that the
strike has made managers timid about
their booking. Among the high class
attractions which ho hns secured are:
"The Chaperones," which is now run
ning at tho New York theater, in the
metropolis. Walter Jones appears In
this company, which has seventy mem
bers and Is one of the best attractions
to be offered this season. Efile Ellsler
In Julia Marlowe's production of "When
Knighthood Was In Flower," will also
be presented. Mention has already
been mode of the Florodora company
ana JMiiuroa Holland In her new play.
Several repertorlo companies of high
standing have been booked.
The season will open at tho Grand
on Labor day, Monday, Sept. 1, with
Howard Kyle In "Nathan Hale." This
was one of the best plays hero last
season.

A. STARTLING FACT
HALF THE PEOPLE IN THE
WQRLD HAVE STOM
ACH TROUBLE.
A Slmplo Course of Treatment Told
in Every-dny Language, Free
from Scientific Terms.
Half the people In the world have
stomach trouble In a greater or less
degree. Usually It conies from Irregular
or hasty eating sometimes from other
causes, But there Is Just one way to
treat It and that can be found In a
booklet which the Dr. Williams Medi
cine Co., Schenectady, N. Y will send
free to any address upon request. Mrs.
Edith Benedict, of Groton, Mass., Is
one of the many who took this course
of treatment and was cured. She says:
"I had suffered from constipation
ever since about the time my little girl
was born, about twelve years ago, and
It finally became chronic. It Isn't
necessary for me to tell you the trouble
It gave me, but I suffered all the" time.
Doctors gave me lio permanent relief
and I kept getting worse. , '
"At last, something' more than a year
ago, when 'I was all run down and my
blood In a horrible condition, my moth
er told me to try Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills for Pale People, which she said
had accomplished wonderful results
with her. I purchased some and took
them according to directions and in a
short time saw a decided Improvement.
I continued their use and they cured
mo."
If you are suffering from any dis
order of the stomach write for their
booklet, entitled "What to Eat and How
to Eat." It contains Information that
should bo in the hands of every person
who Is suffering from a disordered di
gestion. It treats of the proper selec
tion and preparation of food,- the rela
tive value and dtsgestlbllity of various
food products; It contains a chapter of
the use of alcohol and gives a course
of treatment by which constipation
may be overcome without the use of
cathartics.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale
People, the' medicine which cured Mrs.
Benedict and thousands of others, may
be had of any druggist or will be sent

THE MEN AT WORK.
Carbondale United Mine Workers
Publish Their Names.
When Carbondallans passed through
the streets yesterday morning they were
confronted with posters pasted on a
few telegraph poles, supposedly by the
locals of the United Mine workers,
which bore the names of the men who
have remained at work In the employ
of tho several coal companies In this
city and vicinity.
Under the caption "To the Public."
The poster says:
"The following are those who are
stealing the bread from the wives and
little ones of the miners during the
strike."
The names' 6f the men follow. There
were 87 on the list; one has since been
blotted out. The occupation of each
man Is given. There are foremen,
clocking bosses, driver and barn bosses,
carpenters, sales agents, clerks, coal
Inspectors, In short all the occupations
about a coal mine are covered. There
are but four engineers on the list.
Some of the men on the list are em
ployed as watchmen and in various
capacities about the mines.
There nre only a few of the circulars
posted, one In each quarter of the town.
