JOHNNIE GORDON'S BOYS
GET THEIR THIRD BUMP
3 The Irrepressible Young Han from
South Scrnnton Comes Thrice to
' Carbondnlo with a Collection of
; Ployors from the Four Corners of
4 the Town and Is Sent Home with
" Only His Car Faro and a Free Sup
tr per Score 10-11 in Favor of the
Crescents.
Every once in a while, Johnnie Oor-
don, ot Scrnnton who shouts "fudge!"
nt the rooters gets ambitious to win ti
victory f i am '.'Our Pots." Taking a
Stone avenue cur ho gets a transfer to
,, North Hcranton, and hurrying up to the
" ."Notch," ho kidnaps a couple of play
ers from, the "haH boon" Kurcka team,
.'Jlleturnlng he asks for a Luzerne street
""transfer; anil going to the neighborhood
of Kddle MeTlorney'ii home he Inys vio
lent hands on what loose material
there's lying about. When he liourds
the South Side car on the way buck
he never stops until he Is some distance
'beyond the city line, where he picks up
'what record men there ate to spure in
'Mlnooltn, and hurrying home he mort
gages all the South Skiers who are
'.only too anxious to partake of Carhon
' dale's warm-hearted hospitality. Tlien
.Inhnnlc and his widely-scattered fam
ily come north nnd get off at Duffy's
Held, where twice before yesterday they
got the dt tiling jars nnd jolts.
AVoll, yesterday, Johnnie dime to
town with one of these teams that he
gathered from the four cornets of the
Illectrlc City. In the evening Johnnie
and his cosmopolitan bunch wont home
delighted and charmed, as usual, with
the hospitality that everybody wlio
' comes to Carbondnlo speaks nf so well.
Did this mixed pickles team win? Oil,
no! Only one leant can win. Uunlly
the Crescents who still belong to us
do tills,, so thcie isn't much of a chance
to divide up with the other fellows.
Maybe It wasn't a square deal to rub
It into CSordon and his "pets" a third
time, but 'twas the only thing we could
do.
However, be it said, while we're talk
ing, we didn't have a whole lot of mar
gin; jut enough though. The score
was 11-10, nnd we didn't have to linger
to make any more runs In the last half
of the ninth. And everybody took a
long breath, when Hilly Flnnnery
caught the last Cordon man out In the
ninth, and breathed more fieely.
The holding In of our health was due
to the fact that it was an off day for
the "Pets," for they made more errors
in this one game than' they did In two
weeks before. Klght were chalked up
against the Crescents at the end of tne
game. It seemed to be In the air, for
who would ever picture "Sport" Thomas
making four errois In a single game.
Then picture Jimmy Crane and Dick
Monahan making priors out In the field
on comparatively easy chances. These
are cited to show that this "otlishness,"
as It were, ran right round the team.
Jlmmle Murray and Billy Kmmett, too,
each had one. "Twos In the air, sure
ly. But no one has any kick coming.
We won and "they are still our Pets!"
It was our good batting that won the
day and Eddie McTlerney's unparal
leled base running. He scored twice,
without having got first base on a hit.
Mr. Mangnn, who comes from Mlnonka,
was In the box, and lie got. his bumps
just at the right time, when there were
men on bases. Dick Monahan was the
stick hero of the game. In the fimrth,
he cleaned the bftso, bringing three
men In on a two-bagger. In the fifth,
his three-bagger to right brought In
two more. He also had a two-bagger
In the second, but he couldn't score.
Monnhun's hitting, plus McTlerney's
base runnln, won out for us. Of the
ten runs of the Onidon buckas, only
one was earned, while four of ours were
gotten on their merits. The hits which
the Crescents bagged came In bunches,
while the lilts off Owney were so scat
tered that they were of little value, and
would have counted for naught but for
the errnis that came In bunches Just at
the right time to pile up runs.
Three scores wpre made by Si ran ton
In the first Inning, after two men were
'.out on errors by Thomas Murray and
Crane, and a two-bnj.e hit by Hopkins.
Citrhondulo made two In the first by a
hit by Murray, an error by Merrick on
McTicrucy'.s drive. undfrCuff's single.
Scrnnton made another by McAudrew
hitting two men In succession after two
men made their bares on hits. We went
one ahead In the fourth, making three
runs on Monahan's two-baser, after
Rmmett got his base on balls and Flun
nery and Thomas hit safe.
Two more were added In the fifth by
Monahan on his three-bagger, taking
111 Kmmett, who hit for two sacks, and
Thomas, who walked on four wide ones.
Scrnnton went one ahead of us In the
sixth by clearing four runs on hits by
Merrick, Phllhln und.Morlnrlty, aided
y a bare on balls and two errors by
Thomas and one by Monahan. The
Crescents tied the score In the same
Inning by McTlerney stealing every
baso In sight after getting a base on
balls, in the next inning the tie was
.broken by Scrautim scoring one, and
jin thcanuUnnlng wo went one ahead
. oy scwJnjjfjQUjhltH . by Murray and
Thomas nnd an error by Gordon,
j Scrnnton made one In the eighth, tlelng
the score again, anil In the same Inning

Notes of the Game.
Captain Kdtlle McTlerney, of the
Crescents, was taken In tow by Con
stable Kdward Neary, about 10 o'clock
last night, for bis deliberate theft of
three bases on two occasions during
the game. On promising, howovpr, not
to i cpent the offense, unless against
Archb.ild and without a tin to the
rooters, the good-natured constable re
leased McTlerney in time to cntch the
10.01 Delaware and Hudson train for
Scrnnton.
McTlerney's feats have not been
equalled this year on Duffy's field. The
first time he made from third to home,
while Shortstop Gallagher held the ball
In his bands, after McTIernpy ran from
second to third on a hit. The next thno
he started to steal second. Merrick
knocked the ball up In the air, and,
though It rolled away only a few feet,
McTlerney kept on going to third. The
ball was at third as quick as himself,
but sliding into Morlarlty he knocked
the ball out of the hitter's bunds. He
fore the baseman .could realize what
was going on, the desperate McTlerney
was on his feet nnd away for home,
beating the ball In, which was quickly
grabbed up and sailed home, but Just
too lute. Both were dating feats, but
Mac played his part well, setting the
bleachers wild with enthusiastic ap
plause. Monahan hit wonderfully well nnd,
with McTlerney's base running, cinched
the game for Carbondale.
Gallagher, who played so well at
short, having nine chances without nn
error, one a fly from Crane's bat that
looked good for two sacks, is a mem
ber of the Kureka team and plays on
the Blossburg State Normal School
team. He's u captain, though he did
no hitting.
Jack Tlghe, who played right field, Is
the boxing master and director of
Tlgbe's gymnasium in Scrnnton.
Here Is how Johnnie Gordon gathered
together his team to wallop the Cres
cents: Pltllbin and Mnngan, Mlnooka;
Gordon, Merrick, Morlarlty and Tlghe,
South Scrnnton; Hopkins, West Scum
ton, and Kvans and Gallagher, North
Scrnnton.

IDEAL FISHINO CAMPS.
In Canadian Wood3 Where Ameri
cans Seek' the Salmon.
From Country Llfo In Amorlca.
Tho Ideal fishing camp Is of rustic
construction, In perfect harmony with
Its Kui-roundlugs, where the river
banks nre exactly as natuio left them,
clad In virgin forest to tho water's
edge. Hero tho angler's only compan
lomi besides his own party and his
half-breed guides aro the otter, thu
osprey, tho kingfisher and the shel
drake. Theso nre not sociable fellow
llshers, but neither iii-jj they trouble
some ones, They keep to thenis-i'lves,
as Is th manner of anglers. If bo
likes music, bo has tho screech-owl and
and mosfiulto-hawk by night, tho chat
tering squirrel, tho croaking frog nnd
tho drumming partridge by day; and
by day und night there Is the melody
of the water, tho rippling of the
stream and thu roaring of the torrent.
Tho gravelly depths of a certain pool
I know aru literally "paved with the
blue backs of tho silver-scaled shin
ers." From tho beach below, tho hugo
t'ulmon plain enough to tho prnctlccd
Indian eye seem to tho ordinary ang
ler, at first sight, but shadows In tho
water, lying like stones or logs ot
wood at the bottom of tho pool. Mr.
Scropo inuilo no mlstnke In declaring
that salmon, und soma other fish, as
sume In some degree tho color of the
channel they lie upon, even though Sir
David liiewHtcr explulus tho phenome
non by the fact that all bodies appro
priate tho color of the light which
they reflect.
For some time there Is no stir among
the tnlniou. Usually they are In pairs,
side by side; often In tiers or parallel
rows, from six to ten thick. Occasion
ally one of them In rubbing the lower
surface of Its body upon tho gravel at
tho bottom of the pool slightly changes
Its upright position In the water. For
u moment the view of Its upturned sil
very sldo Is like tho sudden flush ot a
string ot diamonds.
One of the days for your out-of-town
visitors can well betaken

store gives in its shows of the
things women are wearing this
