The News of
nillf "MTS" DIDN'T BAT
' BUT HOW WE FIELDED
..Honesdale Won on Saturday, but
There Was Glory In the Defeat.
Our "Pets" Have the Fielding Hon
' ors, but Not nt the Bat Unfair
ness of Honosdale Management In
Substituting Miller, of Port Jervls,
and the Bank Injustice of Umpire
i Spencer A Great Day and a Great
Gamo.
( We wont tn Honosilnlc on Saturday
425 of us. Wo went amidst n bnbel of
noise, with pandemonium breaking
' loose every two minutes from tbc time
,the 11.05 train pulled away from the
city station and struggled up the
'mountain past the Last Clinnce, until
we slowed up In the Chestnut borough,
alighted from the train and nwokc
Ilonesdallnns from their' enjoyable
siesta.
AVc faille back In the evening with
noise, somewhat reduced In volume, but
as noisy as our cracked and husky
voices would permit. Did wc win? No,
wo- didn't. That Is, we didn't pet
"enough didn't net any runs, but we
got enough of honor out of the defeat
to make us fool not the least bit
ashamed tn make as much noise as our
broken voices allowed,
AVe carried off the lidding honors.
AVe played a game that had no errors,
while tlio Tigers, plus the colored Port
Jervts tower of strength, had six; six,
mind you: a whole half-dozen. Write
It down, lest you forget. And, lest you
forget, write It down that wo returned
Tjlcdgtng loyalty to our "Pets;" loyalty
.to the team that played against Hones
dale, plus Sillier Miller, of Port Jervis
and Umpire Silencer, who, sonic per
sons were mean enough to say, doesn't
belong to Honesdnle, but to Scranton:
renewing loyalty to the team Ihut
played against this trinity of hard
propositions and put up such a game
that wc hoisted our purple and white
pennant a few Inches higher, but not
so high ns It would have gone bad we
won. In the evening, wo wore our col
ors next our heart, to attest our de
votion and our loyalty to our team.
"May our team always win! But win
' or lose, our team!" That was the spirit
of the faithful followers, and no op
portunity after the game, and all Sat
urday evening, was lost to show this
spirit.
The score everybody knows by this
time; it was; Tigers, 4: Crescents, o.
it looks hard to sec the nought after
our " Pets' " name on the score card,
but, consarn it, as Lnfe Smith would
say, wo weren't able to bilt; It was a
, case of the hit that never came. Some
how, our "Pets" couldn't connect when
a lilt mennt two runs. Twice we had
three men on bases. Once there was
only one man out; the other time there
was no man out. But nary a hit. Iless
ling, the doughty Honesdale pitcher,
pitched the game of his life. When the
three men were on bases and no man
. was out, and the Carbondnle delegation
was crazy yelling for a homer, for a
double, for a single, for a sacrlficcj'for
any old thing to bring In'n man, nes-
'iling put out three men, one artel
'tother, on strikes. Fierce luck, wasn't
it?
, In a few words, then, It might bo said
It was because our "Pets" didn't hit
the ball that we didn't win. Hut tills
was not the only reason. There were
contributing causes. First of these,
perhaps, that calN for attention was
the substitution, under false represen
tations, of Miller, the colored Port Jer
vls player. Miller, be It known, Is a
crackerjack player. He Is one, two or
three classes higher than any player of
cither the Honesdale or C.u-bondale
teams. He's an old Cuban Glnnt player;
but he hasn't outlived those days. He
can play yet; like Hoseo, be ents 'em
alive. He has an express train that be
sent after balls that' sailed anywhere
in the vicinity of sbprtfleld, second
base, third base and short centre mid
left Hold. And he got these balls, too;
got them like Constable Kddie Xenry,
when he goes after a, prisoner. Why,
do you know that thh man Miller
plckc'd up grounders that got away
from either the pitcher and second
baseman, and after they we're fumbled
, ho delivered them in time to make
double plays. He showed clearly that
ho was In company that could not keep
up to his pace. And It was this man
whom the Honesdalo management sent
for to Port Jervls, to whom they paid a
good day's wages, and an extra ilfty
cent piece for every good piny. This is
the man whom Manager Tapp.ui, of
the Crescents, protested against on
Thursday night, when ho was informed
that Honesdale had sent for him and
nuenuea 10 play mm. Manager Diet
rich, of Honesdale, that very night said
thnt it was not true that Miller had
been engaged, or that he was going to
play. He assured Mr. Tnppan that
every player on the Honesdale team
would bo f loin Honesdale; no outsiders
would be on the diamond, As a further
mesmerized.

Now wo will Bee how the, Honesdale
tnanhgement violated the pledges eo
earnestly made to Manager Tappun.
Miller whs engaged to play and to
make room for hint, IjOc, Whoever he
Is, was given the rubber ball; ho was
bounced nnd the positions were shifted
no ns to put the colored professional
In short Held. When the Crescents
reached tho ball ground and the batting
order of Honesdule was given to the
newspaper men fiom this city, tho
name of Miller was noticed.
"How about this man, Miller," asked
one of tho Curbondale reporters from
one of tho Honcsdnlo scorers, "Isn't ho
from Port Jervls?"
"N'o, slreo," cumc the answer sharp
ly, "lie's from Honesdale; ho works
hcie, und he'H played here tlils summer
with Hoiiesdale."
Further protests being of no avnll,
and to prove that wo were not "(pilt
ters," as Honesdale would fight out all
summer the disbarment of Miller, tho
Caibondnlc men allowed the gamo to
start with this rank Injustice, this de
liberate breaking of faith staring them.
Now tho facts, Verllled by Honesdale
residents and Miller, himself, arc
these;
Miller was engaged for this game. Ho
came to Honesdnle from Port Jervls on
tin- evening train on tho Erie on Fri
day night. Ho was paid for tho day
and was given extras for tho good
plays and the two-base hit ho made.
"I camp hero Friday night," said
Miller, himself, to a Carbondnle player,
"and went to tho French restaurant,
where I'm staying now. I don't know
a soul In tho town."
Furthermore. Miller didn't play with
the Honesdnle team; ho played with
Port Jervls and on the Fourth of July
ho played with the Port Jervls team in
the game at lonesdale against Hones
dale. This, therefore. Is the absolute
truth of the representations of the
Honesdalo management to play only
ncn-professlonnls, and it Is a sample of
the fairness of which they boasted
while the negotiations for the game
were In progress. Miller It was who
.lid nil the fielding for Honesdnle, and
It was Miller who made all the runs.
His fast 1 tinning the bases on Vetter's
hit, which was clearly a foul, gave
Honesdale tho lirst run; and his two
base hit in the seventh brought In
three men. With lilm eliminated, as In
fairness he should have been, the score
would have been nothing, bo far as
Honesdale Is concerned.
On the other hand, had Umpire Spen
cer given the same decision when Ow
neyIcAndrow knocked a ball dowa the
third-base line as he did when Vetter
knocked his ball Into lefl ilcld, scoring
the first run of the game, Murray, who
as on third, would have (.cored and
the lesult would huve been 1-0 in Car
bondule's favor".
As, to the work of Umpire Spencer, It
was manifestly unfair, and the mild
est opinion to be expressed Is that no
team with the least sense of fairness
would hae allowed him to.pmplre for
a single moment. He was debarred
fiom acting, It the equities ot'the mo
ment were observed, from the very fact
that hi; was Interested an therefore
likely to he biased. If it be true, as
llonesdnlians say, that he had wagered
money on the game, then he was whol
ly unfair, not only to the L'arbondnle
club, but io himself. Aside from this,
he was condemned generally when he
made what were Interpreted by those
who watched, as signals to the Hones
dale pitcher as to where to throw the
ball while the Crescent runners were
on bases. This motioning was so no
ticeable that more than one spectator
sent word to where the scorers sat to
have it ceased. Tills was looked upon
as the rankest Injustice, with which he
was openly charged during the game.
Spencers worst decision, however,
was when ho called Vetter's hit to left
Held, which scored the first run, a fair
ball. Reputable business men of Car
bondnle, who were in the outfield, when
they learned of his decision, enme In
and protested, all agreeing that the ball
was a dozen or more feet out of the
Held line. Somo were so close to the
ball and were so positive that they
wouldn't hesitate to back what they
said by an affidavit. Spencer, however,
wouldn't listen to anything, in which,
of course, he had the approval and
noisy support of tho whole Honesdnle
team. Kven when assured that It, was
a foul by Umpire Burke, who was
watching the bases and who saw the
nail Knocked by Cuff when he ran for
it, Spencer was obdurate and obstinate,
lhirke was an Impartial man; ho was
not from Carhondale; his decisions
weio accepted without question and it
was short of an Insult to him to have
his word of honor Ignored, as It was.
This was emphasized by the clrqum
blnnco that Spencer, owing to tho
crowd, could not see the foul Hag,
Hurko's vision was unobstructed, yet
Spencer Ignored him and seemed to
heed the Honesdalers. This dccltilon
cani" near to breaking up the game,
but oven In the face of the wln-01-bolt-thu-gamo
policy of tho Honesdalers and
to pruvo the fairness for which Cnr
bomtnlo has a reputation fur and wide,
It was decided by the Crescents to
rubmlt to this additional rankness and
to go ahead with tho game. Carbon
dale has nsver had any "quitters";
"quitting" Is foreign to our nnturo, and
we're not going to follow the exumplo
of ojhers, say Honesdale,
The details scoro shows what our
Ham did. McAndrew easily hud tho
honots of pitching and our team ran
away ahead of the game In ll'eldlng.
The scoro likewise shows that there
was nothing doln' among the Hones
dalers. Miller, the outsider, got all the
work ond nil the glory, McAudrow had
Jive put outs. Uallaphy live and two
f.sslsts, nnd Murray, three- put outs and
one assist. Not an error was 'made.
It was a great day In Honesdalo; tho
tow wu3 never so aroused over a' ball

The game was accordingly forfeited to

UV JOHN M'COMB,
On u July day In slxU'-olie
The rooters down In Washington
Went out to see our army light
And whip the "icbs" clean out of sight;
All kinds of rigs went rollns south,
And loud the boast of ev'ry mouth;
Hut when thu lighting had been done
Tho score-fttid showed wo lost Bull Run.
Four bundled rooters thought "Our Pets"
Could play tho "Tigers," and win bets;
So on tho twelfth day of July
They rode to Wayne to have a try;
And near tho town named after Ilono
They Introduced tho megaphone.
And tin ough their long horns mndo of
tin
They gave a piactice "game of chin."
nut Ilonesdnlo lads had In reserve
A base bail asset known as nerve,
Which stood them well In a quiet way
When tho "Tigers" lined up Saturday;
For they had Umpire Spencer put,
Who often snld that this was that;
Though tho warmest thing to cut 113 short
.Was the coon profesh who camo from
Port.
'Tis said three thousand saw the game,
And that six innings were the t,ame;
Without 11 inn for cither Bide,
But errors on tho Tigers' hide;
Then camo tho coon up to tho plate
With three on bases. Ho was great!
For from his but tho ball It Dow,
And then tho Tigers tallied two.
Our city 1ioh do not feel sore
Although they failed ono run to scoro;
They know that four was hard to bent,
And laugh nt what Is called defeat;
For they found out when tho gamo was
new
That UoneMlulc bad a rag to chow;
And cotton on tho lungs gels dry
When you light to keep tho "imports"

They think they could win out nil right
And make the Purplo and tho Whlto
Tho badgo of victory to sail
On ev'ry breczo In Carbondnle
O'er any nine of amateurs but then
Wo often think what might have been!
For till our errors we'll utnne

body, nor has any success attended the
searching party, which Includes n half
dozen Carbondallans. Telegrams were
received yesterday, but the latest had
the same dismal views as the first,
though the hopes of the searchers are
sustaining them and making them
persevere In their sorrowful task.
How poor Morgan met his death can
be given now for the first time. The
canoe did not cnpslze, nor did the
young man perish In the rifts, as was
surmised. He sank to his death In still
water. The three young men passed
through the rifts with safety, but after
gliding along in still water some dis
tance beyond, they were alarmed some
what at seeing the canoe fill with
water. Presumably, coming through
the rifts, they struck a stone which
punctured the canoe, which Is largely
canvass. Tho craft kept filling with
water, and when It would no longer
hold them, the three, Crane, Lathrope
and Morgan, struck for the shore.
All three were considering themselves
safe, when Crane and Lathrope looked
behind mid saw Morgan go down. This
was within ten feet of shore. Ho
sank and never arose. Neither of his
companions had a chance to aid him,
so quickly did ho sink. Cramps are
supposed, to have seized him, rendering
him helpless.
The deceused youth's father has not
fully recovered from the prostration
which followed when he reached his
home In this city on Friday, soon after
the news of tho drowning. Ho keeps
to the' house and continues to lament
his terrible loss,
Dr. W. W. Fletcher, who taught the
deceased In the Presbyterian church
Sunday school, and Max Latiiropo, a
cousin of Rexford Lathrope, one of
Morgan's companions, will go to Sho
hola today to aid the scurchera as they
can. Those who have preceded them
arc George Benton, Albert Rutherford,
William Swlgert, Silas McMullen, Mau
rice Watt nnd Claudo Oliver, of this
city, and Mr. Owens, of Forest City.
The time that has passed without the
body being found, deepens tho sym
pathy for the sorely stricken family.
The members of tho searching party
from this city who wero endeavoring
to raise tho body of young Morgans
returned homo Inst nlfiht., They bad
dynamited and dragged the river with
barbed wires for a dlstanco of two
miles without hiicccss, using 250 sticks
