Tho court house team Is again a winner.

He acted a3 though he were a combination of Christy Matthewson and Mike O'Neill, and not only struck out ton of the unhappy city hall players, but did not allow them a single hit. His mutes gave him poor support In the field, and this, coupled with three costly bases on balls, gave tho municipal stars their four runs. AVallacc G. Moser umpired tho game.

Chief Accountant Proumers to Leave Pennsylvania Brewing Co. Henry W. Proumers, ot North Irving avenue, who has long boon connected with tho Pennsylvania Central Brew ing company, litis resigned bis position us chief accountant, and will leave for New York, to resume the duties of perstdent and manager of the H, W. Proumers Malted Meat company. A charter was granted tho company, about two weeks ago. It is capitalized at $20,000. Mr. Proumers was elected president and appointed manager, and Dr. Dillion Brown, of New York city, wns chosen secretary-treasurer. Charles 13. Robinson of this city Is one of tho directors. The company's plant will be at First avenue and Forty-seventh street, New York, and a sules olllce will be situated at 90 William street. Mr. Proumers formerly had a plant In this city, all the machinery of which has been trans ferred to the metropolis and a large quantity of now supplies purchased. The product which the company will put on tho market Is an extract from malt, which tho company claims Is highly superior to beef extract. It 13 used for the same purposes, and the claims of superiority arc based on the fact that It contains more albumen and lacks any animal fat Ingrcdlments or uric acid. "These latter facts" said Mr. Proumers yesterday "make tho ex tract eminently nourishing for the sick, as It produces a soothing, pleasant ef fect, and Is also very nourishing. INJURED BY A RUNAWAY. Colonel and Miss Boies Meet with an Accident. In a collision on the Speedway Satur day afternoon, Col. H. M. Boles and daughter, Helen, had a narrow escape from serious Injury. They were out for a drive in their carriage, and en countered a runaway horse belonging to tho department of public works. Tho horse was being driven along the speedway by Director John E. Roche, and becoming unmanageable, started off at a breakneck pace. Mr. Roche was thrown lout and sustained a few scratches and bruises. The horse col lided with Col. Boies' carriage, throw ing him and his daughter out. Mr. Boies received a severe scalp wound, which rendered him uncon scious. Miss Boles was kicked by one of the horses, but was not seriously injured. The colonel was assisted to tho veranda of tho Speedway hotel, where his injury was dressed and ho soon recovered consciousness and later returned home. Thomas Kennedy, of tho Connolly & Wallace stores, stopped the frightened horses and averted further trouble. OLD PORGE TOWN HALL. Plans Have Been Drawn by Archi tect P. L. Brown. Architect F. L.

Stanton, who added fifteen to his score, thus draw ing away from William Sherwood, of Harford, who came very near passing him on Friday. Mr. Stanton now holds tenth place by eighteen points, and Is but thirty-one below ninth. The only advance In tho table was made by Fred Klbler, of South Scranton, who with three points, passed up two places, now occupying twenty-fourth position. Three more points would put him In twenty-second. The other con testants who scored were Herbert Thompson, of Carbondale, three points; Newton Hawlcy, of Green Ridge, one; William Cooper, of Priceburg, one; Charles Dorsey, of Scranton, one. Mr. Hawley has not yet sufficient points to get within tho limits of the main table, as he only started last Monday, but his steady work Is sure to count and ho will soon be seen climbing up among the leaders. Vhat Was Accomplished in July. During tho month of July there were many changes In position. Most of the contestants who did the greatest amount of work earlier In tho contest, rested during July and allowed somo of thoso who wero further down In tho list to creep up nearer the top, A. J. Kellerman, however, was not nmong thoso who rested. He kept up his steady work, winning the first special honor prize for the best work during tho month, A3 a consequence, he occupies first place today, whereas ho was third one month ogo. Churles T3urns, of Vandllng, who has held first place all during tho past month, was obliged to relinquish his hold on that position with the open ing of August, .and Is now In second place, but holds thut position by over ono hundred points. Oscar H. Kipp, of Elmhurst, made very fow returns during the month and was obliged to drop ono place, as Mr. Kellerman passed up from third to first. Albert Frcedman, of Dollovue, who was eighth at the beginning of tho month, went up to fourth place, hav ing about doubled his score, and win ning tho second honor prize. This Is a remarkable record for one month, and If he continues his good work ho will probably bo still nearer tho top by September 1. Fred K. Gunstor, of Green Rldgej William T, S.

Tho (two Cnrbondalo boys ore still together, although Mr, Thompson has drawn ahead of his col league considerably. Went Up Eighteen Places. The most remarkable advance of tho month was made by Charles' W. Dor sey, of Scranton, who went from twenty-seventh place to ninth. Mr. Dorsey came very near winning ono of tho special July prizes, but though ho failed to do so, there Is certainly great ratlsfactlon In having made such a wonderful Jump In tho short space of one month. L. E. Stanton, ot Scranton, and Wil liam Sherwood, of Harford, who oc cupy tenth and eleventh places, arc each ono point further down In tho list, although both advanced their scores materially. J. A. Havenstrlte, ot Moscow, went up ono, and Miss Ueatrlco Hnrpur, of Thompson, two places, tho latter add ing u goodly number of points to her Ecore. There was considerable changing about further down In tho list, thoso who succeeded In making advances be ing tho following: Frank 17. McCreary, of Hallstead, from seventeenth to six teenth; Hendrick Adams, of Chinchilla, from twentieth to seventeenth! Miss Jane Matthewson, of Fnctoryvllle, from twenty-fourth to twenty-first; Fred Klbler, of South Scranton, from forty fourth to twenty-sixth (Mr. Klbler did not stnrt until July D, when ho began In forty-fourth place); Miss Mary Yenger, of Green Itldge, from thirty third to twenty-seventh; Louis Gere, of Brooklyn, from thirtieth to twenty ninth, nnd Elmer Williams, of Elm hurst, from thirty-sixth to thirty-third. There wcro six contestants among the list of thirty-three leaders who did not score a single point during tho month. They were: Harry Madden, of Scran ton; Grant M. Decker, of Hallstead; Leo Culver, of Springville; Walter Hallstead, of Scranton; Louis McCus ker, of Park Place, and C. J. Clark, of Peckville. Thompson Dempsey, of Olyphant, and Don C. Capwell, of Scranton, whoso names appeared among the thirty-three leaders on July 1, failed to In crease their scores, and were obliged to drop below the lino as others passed up. The Leaders for August. The contestants are starting right In to work for tho three special honor prizes for the present month, and the names of tho leading ten will be pub lished each morning.
