There Will Be n Battle Royal This
' Afternoon In Athletic Park for
1 $200 a Side A Great Oame Surely
' Expected A Sequel of the Fiasco
Yesterday Forenoon at Archbald.
The battleground of the Crescents
And the Archbald team will be shifted
today down the vnlley tn Athletic park,
in Scrnnton, where the two teams will
meet In battle royal this afternoon.
5 Not only will this contest be of In
terest to the rooters In Curbondnlc and
Archbald, but It will likewise nttr.ict
pvcry fan In Scranton and vicinity. The
(force of this attraction lies In the fact
that each team will have one or more
players of either the seml-professlonals,
or Scranton, or the Plttston Urothers.
'Such players as Touhill. Ferris. France,
hludenspaeher, the Small-, brothels,
Toy and Golden, of the Brothers' team,
arc an assurance that the article of ball
will he worth koIhk to see. This,
coupled with the Intense rivalry be
tween the Crescents f'nrbondale's
j'Pets" and the Archbald team, make
assurance doubly sine that It will be a
great same.
The teams will play for a purse ot
$100, each club posting $200. The re
ceipts of the Rinne will likewise go to
the winning club. In short, the win
ners take everything In sight.
The arrangements for this game the
climax, It might be said, of the extrn
nrdlnnrlly successful season In I'nrbon
dnle quickly followed the miserable
nd deplorable llnlsh or the game at
Archbald yesterday forenoon. About
dinner time Manager Phllbln called up
Manager Tappan, of the Crescents, and
made a proposition to play at Scrnnlon
today for a good-sized purse. Curiously
enough, Sir. Tappan and members of
the team were discussing at the time
a similar proposition to meet the Arch
bald tf am on neutral ground, prefer
ably In Scranton.
Mr. Tappan went to Archbald in the
afternoon, where he met Manager F.d
ward riiiihln. Hacked by plenty as
surances from Interested rooters, Mr.
Tappan reasserted Carbondale's faith
In her fain and offered to raise the
forfeit of each club to $200, making the
purse $10(1. This was acquiesced in by
Sir. Phllbln, and articles of agrf-emont
were forthwith prepared and signed.
The articles of agreement which were,
of coutEf, signed by Managers Tap
pan and Phllbln, and witnessed by Will
F. Loftiiy, of this city, and Charles
Heady, of Archbald, specify that thu
same players who were In uniform at
Archbald at yesterday's game consti
tute the teams of this afternoon's con
test, These players were:
Curbondalc Hopkins, West Scranton,
catcher; Harrison, Scranton, pitcher;
France, h'outh Scranton, shortstop;
Kmmett, first base: Touhill, Scranton,
second base; McTierney, third base:
Murray, right Held: Flannery, center
field; Cuff, lert Held: Monahan, McAn
drew and Kelleher, additional.
Archbald Toy, Plttston. catcher: Ed
ward Smultz. Plttston, pitcher: ICrnest
Rmnltz, Plttston, shortstop; Halligan,
Seranton. first base: Patrick McDon
ald, Archbald, second base; Fleming,
Archbald, third base; Price, Archbald,
right Held; Ferris. Scranton semi-professional,
center Held; Cioldcn, Plttston
Urothers. left field: .7. McDonald, Arch
bald; Addle Madenspacher, Scranton
semi-professional, additional.
These players, therefore, will lie on
the ground, and It is likely that thev
will be played In the same positions as
yesterday.
The agreement further provides that
both clubs will abide by the decisions
of the umpire to lie mutually agreed
upon: that in the event of a dispute his
decision will be final; that each club
deposit $-ir. with Charles Heady, of
Archbald, as a forfeit: that the bal
ance of $ifM. on each side, be deposited
with Mr. Heady one-half hour before
the game: that the winning club take
the purse of $(00 and the gate receipts,
and that the winning club pay the
rental of the grounds and the umpire.
Mnnager Tappan was easily prepared
to put up the purse, and even $.100, if
the Archbald sports could afford, to
meet the raise.
Special Fare to Scranton.
Everything, therefore, with the excep
tion of the selection of the umpire, has
been decided upon, The rooters, there
fore, from c.irbondale and vicinity are
assured of a great game; and there is
A fllltlS PROBLEM.
How to Feed Herself When Running
Down.
"I nil) a stenographer!" That state
nient brings up a picture of 1 ,ng hours
of tiresome indoor confinement, close
nientul concentration and subsequent
exhaustion and brain fag. Then comes
up the food question.
A young lady In Dayton, Ohio writes,
"Some time ago I was a stenographer
in a large city retail store and having
the responsibility of the olllce work
resting largely upon me my health be
gan gradually to decline, and I stood
facing the dllllcult problem of fludlng

flvcn by Postum Co.; Battle Creek,
fclyn,
Carbondale,
an extra Inducement to draw an Im
mense crowd' rrom this vicinity. Ar
rangements were made last night with
the Delaware and Hudson for a special
excursion rate, Thu single fare, fifty
cents, will prevail today, for the round
trip. The train that will specially ac
commodate the rooters will leave here
at 1 .4:1 In the afternoon.
As to the game In Archbald yester
day forenoon, u good deal might be
said, but In view of the fact that both
teams are to meet this afternoon to
fight out the battle In earnest, the less
fighting on paper, the better, perhaps,
The game, as Is known, broke up In
the beginning of the second Inning by
Captain McTierney taking his men from
the field, after the Archbald manage
ment refused to remove Umpire. Pat
rick Mahoti, of Archbald, whose Incom
petence was glaringly apparent and
recognized by every fair-minded per
son at the game. Million's decisions on
strikes were woefully bad. He repeat
edly called strikes that were over the
base, but also over the batters' heads.
In the second Inning, Harrison was sent
hack to home after hitting a ball direct
ly In' front of the base. Catcher Toy
knew It was fair nnd tried to throw
Harrison out nt first. Halligan, how
ever, dropped the ball. It was then
that Malum sent Harrison back, de
claring the ball was foul, that It hit
Harrrlson. The error of this decision
was apparent to every one near the
home plate, but more so to Catcher
Toy, who played the ball as ralr. The
next bad decision, the one which broke
up the game, was when McDonald en
deavored to catch Hopkins nt second on
a. double play, after Oolden's catch of
Murray's fly. Hopkins easily slid under
McDonald, who failed to touch him be
cause the ball was caught too high,
Hopkins made the base, which, to make
matters worse, was fully two feet away
from Its proper place.
This being the climax of Million's
poor work, Captain McTierney, who
was backed by the whole Carbondale
delegation, Insisted on the removal of
the umpire before he would permit his
men to go on. Manager Phllbln was
half willing, but later refused; then Mc
Tierney and several of the team made
for the cars. The newspaper men en
deavored to have Manager Phllbln
acquiesce in the clamor for Mahon's re
moval, but It was not until the plnyers
were on the cars that the request was
yielded to. Then It was too late. Man
ager Tappan didn't deem It prudent for
the team to return to the ground. All
through the game feeling ran high; on
the way to the cars young lads pelted
the Carbondale players with stones,
hooted and jeered them, and altogether
there were' signs that there might be
Interference with the game If It be re
sumed.
The only criticism that we would
make Is that Manager Philbln should
have immediately yielded in the request
for Mahon's removal. Ills lack of judg
ment or his dearth of knowledge of the
game was quite apparent. It did not
require an X-ray to discover it. It was
evenly freely admitted by fair-minded
Archbaldlans. It must have been ap
parent, too, to Mr. Phllbln who. candor
compels us to say, Is always irreproach
ably just and fair. His only course,
therefore,, it would appear, would be
the removal of Malum after the second
or third kick. He llnully took this step,
but after It was of no avail. An addi
tional circumstance looking to this end
was thut Million was criticized, as we
were Informed, for his umpiring in Fri
day's game.
In discussing Million's work, there Is
no Intent to make out that he was par
tial with malice aforethought. We
don't .doubt that he was honest in his
purposes. What Is here said refers to
his work as an official. We accord all
that Is due him for honest motives; we
don't doubt that he meant to be fair;
but we are of the opinion, as hundred
others were, that umpiring a ball game
Is hardly In his line; his work through
out clearly demonstrated this. This
qualification is made because of the
reputation for fairness that Mr. Mahon
has among his friends and neighbors.
Special-Fare to Scranton.
Efforts wei'e successful last night in
securing n fifty-cent round trip rate to
the ball game at Scranton today. The
excursionists will leave on the 1.43 p.
m. Delaware and Hudson train and can
return on any train before midnight. It
Is expected that at least r00 will go
from Carbondale. The cheap rate also
applies from Jermyn and Archbald.

SELECT COUNCIL
ACCEPTS RESIGNATION
At Last Night's Meeting It Dissolves
City Engineer F. E. Kupp from
His Relations with the City Chair
man Davis Still Pursuing Mr. Kupp
Nathan English for Board of
Health Other Business.
Select council at Its meeting last
night formally accepted the resignation
of City Engineer F. K. Kupp, who left
the city yesterday to take up his new
position with Burke Bros,, the extensive
contractors, with headquarters at
Scranton.
After the acceptance of the resigna
tion, Chairman Davis asked council if
there was not some way by which the
city engineer could be compelled to
hand over the specifications of certain
surface sewer work which according to
Sir. Davis lias not been properly carried
out. He specified the sewer recently
laid by Contractor Thomas Kllleen,
wherein, Sir. Davis said the pipes were
laid nt a depth of only two feet, while
the specifications called for live. The
other members of council, however,
could not see how Sir. Kupp could be
held, and further believed that as Con-,
tractor Kllleen has not as yet been
paid, the city has a chance to protect
Itself. It was the specifications, how
ever, held by Mr. Kupp that Sir. Davis
wanted, to see how the work was
carried out, and be decided to refer the
matter to the streets committee.
The name of. Nathan English, was
submitted by Slayor O'Nell In place of
G. V. Norrls, ns a member of the
board of health, the successor of A. R.
Tiffany, of the old board. Chairman
Davis wanted the name to go over.
Sir. Mannlon asked for Immediate con
firmation. Finally Dr. Fletcher moved
for the suspension of rules and for con
firmation without referring to commit
tee. This was carried, and Sir. English
is now a member of the board ot health,
completing that body.
The sidewalk ordinance passed final
reading, also the lighting contracts for
tho city building and the hose house.
An ordinance appropriating $172 to
pay fire Insurance premiums was In
troduced by Chairman Davis and order
ed to be printed.
The concurrent business from com
mon council was adopted. Among the
measures were the recommendations
for fire hydrants and fire alarm boxes.
A resolution providing for the repair
of the white bridge on Cottuge street
was adopted.
Sir. Mannlon endeavored to have Sir.
Kennedy's ordinance for lights In the
Fourth ward taken up for first reading
and Immediately pitched Into Chalr
mnn Davis his alleged dilatory tactics
In holding the measure up. Finally Mr.
Mannlon, after a bustling talk, agreed
to let the matter go over until the next
meeting.
