12 HARRISON'S HIT IN SIXTEENTH BROUGHT VICTORY—WILKES-BARRE TO-DAY MARYSVILLE HAS FLAG ALMOST WON Dauphin Still Has Fighting Chance; Games Tomorrow Are Important Special to the Telegraph Marysville, Pa., Aug. 4. With the Dauphin-Perry race well advanc ed on the final lap, games which will have important bearings on the final standing will be played to-morrow. Dauphin will meet Halifax at home; Marysville plays at Newport and Dun cannon will Journey to Mlllersburg. If Halifax succeeds in tripping up Dauphin to-morrow and Marysville defeats Newport, nothing but a miracle will prevent Marysville from landing the rag. Marysville would have a three-game lead over Halifax and would neea to take but two of the remaining six games to secure a tie. Dauphin Will Fight Dauphin, however, means to do her best to prevent an occurrence like this and will probably send in Gilday and Waltz to check the Halifax bunch. Scheffer, the Gettysburg star, will likely hold down third base. Hali fax has been using youngsters during the past few games and may try out some more to-morrow. Harry Biever will start to twirl and either Ducky Rhoads or Minnich, formerly of Penn State, will receive him. Marysville will use Don Wertz and Kurzenknabe with the regular line-up against Newport. Frankhouse, who de feated Marysville on Independence Day will probably start the game for Newport with Ray Wertz in reserve. Duncannon may use Winter a new pitcher to-morrow with Dearolf catch ing. Manager Chance will send in for his Millersburg squad Franke and Buffington. Chicago Leads Americans; Boston Loses, Moves Out Special to the Telegraph Chicago, Aug. 4.

It was the end of tho greatest game ever played at Island Park. A record was established for no-score innings in this city. Friel, brother of the manager of the local Motive Power team, was on the firing line for the Stars and it was a hard lose for this boy. No pitcher ever worked harder and showed better form than Frlel when the battle ended. His teammates had been fighting hard and when the sixteenth round started they lacked the pep that was needed to prevent clean hits and which they showed early in the game., Helfrich Starts Harrisburg started with Helfrich and this boy wad just as good as Friel. In fact, he was better. In the ninth inning, when a pinch hitter was needed and Wheat went in. Helfrich retired. Parsons succeeded him and was a big factor to the finish. Without a chance to warm up. Parsons started his puz zlers. There were timeb when it looked good for Syracuse to score, but sen sational fielding, long running catches in the outfield and good pitching shut off the runners. In the Harrisburg line-up was the veteran catcher. Lew Ritter. Walter Blair was too ill to play and Wheat '? ou * a sore finger. Ritter was there with the goods Layden was the sensational boy when he caught Fritz's hit in the last inning, prevent ing Syracuse from scoring. Score Winning Run In the sixteenth Cook hit to Fritz, who could not handle the ball in time, and first was reached without any in terference. Cook singled to right, Par sons taking second. La.vden sacrificed, the ball goin,? to Friel. who threw to third, but not in time to catch Parsons. Brown fouled out and Harrison sent the single to center that brought the victory.

Never In tlie history of the National game has there been an aggregation like that develop ed by Walter Blair, and which yester day brought a new record for games in this city. Kvery man on the team was fighting up to the last minute. The work of both Helfj-ich and Parsons was especially commendable. The only thing lacking was the patronage. Beating Syracuse three games was some task. It has brought the Island ers to one point back of Albany. Two victories over Wilkes-Barre to-day will mean much for Harrisburg. Owners Cockill and Blair have gone far above expectations in the standard of the game offered here. It is far better than last season. In the Enola Car chop League yes terday Team No. 2 defeated Team No. 3, score 4 to 2. Both teams hit the ball. The victors were timely with their blngles and had a big star in Pitcher Gibson. Albany is still in the running and must not be overlooked. The Utes split even with the Senators. Albany took the first, score 7 to 1. The second went to the Utes. score 4 to 2. Scran ton gave Elmira another Jolt, score 6 to 1. John Fox allowed but two hits.

Evers Is Ready to Quit; Starts Another Quarrel Sfecial to the Telegraph Boston, Aug. 4. After a quarrel in which Captain Evers and Red Smith, of the Boston Nationals figured yesterday, Evers announced he was "disgusted" with the way things were going, and that if he could obtain an unconditional release he was "about ready to quit the Braves." "If I say anything I get in bad and if I don't say anything, I get in bed," said Evers, "so what is there to do?" The Braves' captain was ordered oft the field by Umpire Byron in the third inning of the oecond game with Cincinnati for alleged wrangling with Smith in the Boston dugout. At the clubhouse after the game, it is said that the quarrel between Smith and Evers was resumed until they were separated by other players. The cause of the trouble was not announc ed. ;\Vilkes-Barre won from Binghamton, score 4 to 2. The Barons featured the game with hits. Wllkes-Barre Is here to-day and will play double-headers this afternoon and to-morrow. Mike Donlin. the new leader, Is expected here with the team. Harrisburg is anxious to win 3 out of the 4 games. In the Lucknow Shop League series yesterday the Planing Mill and Clerks played a no-score five-inning game. Al corn did not allow a hit while the Clerks had two hits off Bowman. Manager Swartz, of the Harris Park team is alnxious for a game for to morrow afternoon. He has one of the best teams in the city and Is a strong amateur attraction. The Stanley A. C. and Galahads play, ed a tie game last evening in the Alli son Hill League series, score 1 to 1. Both teams put up a brilliant battle; Rlckard's catch in xno fifth robbed HeffelQnger of a home run. Increased interest is being manifest ed In the playground games. Yester day Harris and Sycamore boys divided honors. The boys in 12-year-old class won, score 25 to 18; and the seniors, 32 to 11. » Next Week's Registered Trapshooting Tournament August 7-8. Los Angeles (Cal.) Gun Club.
