OUR "PETS" ARE IN THEIR OLD TIME FORM They Shut Out the Scrnnton Alumni Team In nn Errorless Gome Yester day Afternoon, nnd Had the Morn ing Qame Cinched, but for the Error of Putting Jack Fee In the Box for Two Innings Two Fine Games That Show the Crescents Are Flaying the Game Again. Scores, 7-2 and 10-0. Crescento, 10; Alumni, 0 (afternoon). Crescents, 2; Alumni, 7 (morning), And they arc more than ever "Our t rots!" Altogether, perhaps 0,000 persons left ' Duffy's field yesterday, satisfied that they had enjoyed two of the best- . played games ever witnessed on that " diamond and they left well convinced that the Crescents -who arc "Our Pets" J,' nro back In the gumc again; prc- 1 jiarcd to redeem the disasters of the , past few weeks. The "knockers" have won their last twenty-five cent bets; they are on the run and everybody is happy. Wo lost the first game, after the second Inning, during which six runs were made off Jack Fee, who went Into the box with a stiff arm. But In the uffcrnonl Oh, my! How we did win! We' have enough of glory to last for a spell. A shut-out nnd an errorless game. Unquestionably It was the best . game of the season and there was never a more pleased crowd than the throng which left the grounds before fi o'clock, exulting over the day's con quest. The spirit of the players had Its effect In playing, which If main tained to any degree, will send down almost any team, like a set of nine pins before a big bowling ball. En thustlasts who have seen the best kind of ball playing gloried last night In expatiating In the work of the team in both contests, but particularly In the afternoon, when the "Pets" played all round the Alumni and lost them in the game of hide-and-seek. As intimated, the morning game was more our prop erty than the Alumni. After the sec ond inning, when McAndrew took Fee's place, only one run was scored, while we earned two. Owney held the Hyde Park lads down like a spiked rail on No. 1 plane on the old Gravity. And so evberyody is happy! And they are still "Our Pets!" ' The Afternoon Game. One basket of peaches bright-haired Joseph Harrison came from Scranton to twirl for the afternoon game, and he made good, aces high. Joe was a little late in getting to " the ground, so our Owney wont into the box. He pitched three innings, and had the Alumni bunch at his mercy as in, the morning; they got only one hit. As Owney will be needed later in the week, and two games in one day is not advisable for any pitcher, Hani son went into the box right after he reached the grounds. From thence un til the ninth inning, no man but one, little "Genie" Tropp, saw third base; and he didn't linger there long. Har rison's work was superb. He couldn't be touched with any safety. Five hits were the Hyde Parkers' limit. Four of them were singles; one, Tropp's, a good three-bagger. The fast work of the Crescents made the innings mighty short. Only one or two Hies were batted; the rest were tihort, but hot, infield drives that kept the Crescents working. And how they did work. Oh, peaches! It was a case of whack, then a busy fielder and a man out. This was kept up for the Hln,e Innings. Harrison was ns faith ful and true as a grandfather's clock; while the men behind our "Pets" were as regular in their work as a healthy, growing youngster is at his three meals every day. It was a repe tition of three men and out, Inning af ter inning; just as steady as Cresceus going the last quarter on his record mile. The fielding on t'other side, when we weren't slamming the ball, was likewise pretty much hot stuff, only we saw them a few better. Tlfe lead we got was obtained in the , fifth, .when Morris started with a base on balls. A hit by Emmett followed, then a base by Harrison by a hit by pitcher. Murray made a hit, Rosier got his base on balls, then Cuff knocked a slashing hit to left field, which scored three of the runs. Morris, prior 10 mis, maae ms way home and Ros ier nnd Cuff came homo on a wild throw from left. In the eighth, wo got two more by a hit by Morris and a three-bagger by Emmett. The last run was in the ninth on a hit by MeTler nan and a three-bagger by Cuff. Then It was over but counting the runs and hits. The score: SCRANTON. R.

The story of the morning game Is a short one. It wns our misfortune to have the veteran Jack Fee In poor con dition. After Saturday's nunn In Honesdale, when ho gave the Rusty towners only three stingy hits, his arm was stiff. He didn't realize the extent of his stiffness until uftcr ho began lo pitch. The Hyde Parkers landed on him and made five hits and six runs In two Innings. Then Jack gave up the battle and our Owney went Into the box in the third Inning. v Owney did nobly. With fine fielding behind him, he kept the Hyde Park lads down to one run. This was due to a remarkably good steal by Tropp, from third to home, on a thrown ball from second to the plate. One run In seven Innings on nine hits is keeping the hits well scattered. It was a good morning's work, and had Owney gone into the box the first Inning, the result might have been different. After the game there was some talk among the rooters perhaps we should say the "knockers" that the runs In the first two Innings were due as much to the Crescents' errors ns to the hits off Fee. But such talk, such striking in the air, is only a repetition of the continuous performance of knocking that has disgusted the loyal supporters of the "Pets" for the past month. It has bpen the rule when a player made an error, perhups on a hard chance on the fast diamond on Duffy's field, to lay the defeat to that mlsplay, regard less of the indisputable fact that the error had nothing to do with the re sult. It is this unreasonable, unchari table and uncalled for talk that has disturbed the perhaps too conscientious and too sensitive players, whose rec ords have lowered somewhat, lately, and If the knockers would only get next to themselves, shut off their hot air pipes,' and be good, our "Pots" would renew the winning streak that made them "Johnnles-on-the-spot" with the "Knockers," until defeat came. The truth is with respect to the er rors in the first part of the game, only two of the six In the first two Innings were charged to mlsplays. Four of the six runs were earned by bunching of hits. Errors by Fee. McTiernan nnd Murray were responsible for just two of the six runs. These four runs were enough to make the game good for the Boone Hill, Sandy Banks, South Side, and central city players. The nine 'hits made off Owney were responsible for only one run, while the seven the "Pets" secured from Allen, gave us our two tallies. We can re peat, therefore, with McAndrew in the box from the start the result would likely be different. It was u splendidly played game, one that the 2,000 or more roooters enjoyed and did not begrudge to the visitors. The score: SCRANTON. W Qinn I SnArtln9 Tim -I..U..I. 1 ...... wore than 7.0WWOO Jm.

Tho theatrical season of 1902-03 In Carbondalo was fittingly rushed In nt tho Grand, yesterday ufternoon and evening, with Howard Kyle In his highly acceptable presentation of Clyde Fitch's beautiful story of the patriot "Nathan Hale," whose life ought to bo the inspiration of patriotic young Americans. To those who enjoyed the finished work of Mr. Kyle lust year, supple mented by his competent company, his reappearance was welcomed as the re turn of a popular favorite. The unfold ing of the beautiful and ennobling story of the life of the young patriot was given with the same spirit, fidel ity and finish that characterized the presentation of last year and the pre ceding year, two seasons of triumphs for Mr. Kyle and his "Nathan Hale." The company this season Is scarcely changed since Inst year, therefore It can be appreciated how acceptable the production was. The audience wns a large one; ap preciative, grateful and enthusiastic. Curtain calls were given after each net, two and three beginning with the con clusion of tho second net. The Improved annearanre of hn tastefully re-decorated and re-fur-nlshed playhouse won many encomi ums for Manager Byrne and fully justi fied tho predictions ns to the appreci ation of the patrons of the Grand. connection with R.

Mr. Benton has a wide and valuable acqualntnncc'nmong the trndo In this region, and this, coupled with his ability as a salesman, ought to ns- suro a large patronage for his new em ployers. He will have the territory In this vulley as heretofore, with head quarters In Carbondalo. He has num erous wishes fbr success in his changed relations.

Ho lolled over, but clung to the bull with two lingers. It was wonderful woik, and Is seldom witnessed on a dlumond. Morris was llko a stono wall at second baso. Seven put outs and throo abslsts, all glial p and clean, Is a ruro record for a man In that position, Ho Is certainly a valuable addition to tho team.

They nro on the run and tho best way to keep them on tho movo is to en courage tho pluyciu who liavo been tho targets of their want of chailty nnd their luck of bare ball brains. Jlmmlo Murray at short stop Is whoio he belongs. Ho played yesterday In his old time form. Ills bucking lip of Mc Tlernan's fumble or a hot liner nnd his quick throw out to llrst was a line ox. amplo of team work. This is another knock-out .for tho "knockers." Billy h'nimott'u flrtt appearance at llrst base won the admiration of tho crowd. He, too, is Just wnero ho belongs. He had thirteen chances In the afternoon Observed Without Demonstration in Carbondale. There were no indications In Carbon dale yesterday that It was Labor Day, save the condition that the day hnd somewhat of a holiday air than has marked the community since the decla ration of tho coal strike. There was no demonstration of nny sort. There were many visitors In town, nnd numerous persons went either to Scranton or were attracted to Lake Lodore, particularly In the afternoon, when several hundred went over the mountain to join in tho observance of the day at thu lakeside. The ball games on Duffy's Held, be tween the Crescents and Alumni teams were the greatest attractions of the day. Upwards of 6,000 persons wit nessed the f-plendid exhibitions of the national sport. In tho afternoon and evening large sized audiences were at the Grand, to witness Howard Kyle's presentation of "Nathan Halo,"; which opened tho dramatic season In Carbondale. Tho "Brokers" dance in tho evening, In the Burke building, attracted about ICO well known young people. JESSE BAGLEY AT BEST. JERMYN AND MAYFIELD. Yesterday was observed as a general holiday.
