Ono was tlio great change iu tlio Heb At,D's teachers' contest and tho other tho showing tho homo baso ball team mado against tho famous Cuban Giants, who aro recogn ized as tho exponents of all thcro is to be learned In base ball. Tho game played yesterday was certainly aj good as any admirer of tho national pas time would wish to soo. Thero woro somo bad errors and great drawbacks, but on tho whole it was a great contest. Ono of tho Cubans said it was as good as tho last I'otts villo and Jeancsvlllo gamos in which thoy played, put togother. Mr. Setley perhaps tho name is strange. Mr. Setloy is a young gentleman who hails from Philadelphia and has of lato been member of tho Danville baso ball club. which belongs to tho state league. Mr. eiiey is a stranger, nut tlio base ball en- msiasts say ho owns the town and may take away witli him as a testimonial a part he may select, with tho exception of tho street laving, and that they wish to keep until thoy can add a half dozen or more squares to it, Mr. Setloy is a pitcher our pitcher and ho proved an oyo-opencr yesterday afternoon. Thero is not the slightest doubt that had he been given the propor support tho visitors would havo been shut out. Tho scoro below shows that eleven hits wero mado off tho gentleman referred to, but tho scoro is thus becauso tho rules Of tho game prevented tho scorers from charging errors to the fielders. As a matter of fact but four safe hits were mado off Setley. Tho homo management has decided to keep him horo and sco that he gets better support on tho diamond horeafter, Much of tho fielding on tho homo team's side yesterday was, to uso baso ball parlance, "very yellow." Tho right field was cholera morbus colored, tho centre field was not quite as virulent, and the short stop was lossso, but thero was a stiffness and awkwardness about the threo positions that would havo broken any pitcher's heart. Pointedly, tho right fielder was too slow and two much afraid of 'flics," tho centra field had not enough India rubber in him, and the short stop seemed indisposed. True, Fulmor made griovcous error by an ovorthrow at a critical point, but that by no means lost the game. Tho homo team held the visitors down ad mirably throughout tho game and held tho lead up to tho first half of the fifth inning, Thon the scoro was tied and thoy succeeded in keeping it at that until two men wero ont in tho ninth Inning when tho right field broke tho spell by allowing a nice "fly" alight upon the ground. Ho waited for bounce, and got it. Setley was warmly applauded sovoral times; Fulmer's bad overthrow was more than counter-balanced by his general work; Duck" McGettlgan guarded first baso like veteran and Reilly mado soyeral excellent plays. The home battery was really superior to that of tho visitors when Setley struck out Harrison and Catto ono after tho other in the sixth Inning the crowd on tho grand stand went wild with delight. Fulmer tickled the crowd in the start by hitting tho first ball thrown and reaching first. Grant's running catch in tlio fourth inning was warmly applauded and Toolo received equal recogul tlon for a catch in left field, in tho eighth inning. Tho most striking feature was that madoby Grunt. It was done with ono hand and on a run, with a quick and a twist that is indescribable.

Yesterday's gamo was an oxcollont test for weak points. Setley will remain horn, haviug secured employment at J. J. Doughorty's Bijou. Tho homo management declared last night that It Is on tlio diamond for tlio season. According to tho samplo, Slionandoah has tho best baseball club it has ever had. It Is a pity that an olcctrlo railway is not running to tho grounds. A mistake was mado In allowing a crowd to rush In at tho gates towards tho closo of tho gamo. Don't cuss tho umplro out loud. Never scoro a run until it is made. Don't despiso tho visiting team simply becauso it is black. McGottigau is also hero to stay. Ho is to bo located at Schclder's. Don't laugh when a player gets hit on tlio aw hy tlio ball. Itjs no laughing matter. Don't bet on tholjauie. Betting prejudices tho mind. If you must hot, always bet on tho winning team.

Don't call out tho name of tlio man who you think should mako this or that play. rho club pays its captain a largo salary to crform that duty. Don't imagine that if you wero down on tho field you could do better. Tho truth is you might mako a good fertilizer, but ball playing is another thing. CCUAN GIANTS R. IU. I',) A. A.

Apply at Furnitu FOUR HUNDRED INJURED- THE CAPTURED BURGLARS Getting ut the Uuttom or the llreiiiiim llobbery. Developments sinco yostcrdiy show that tlio authorities aro on tho right track for breaking up tho Kline gang of burglars and placing iu jail all who havo had a hand in tho numerous burglaries in town. A strong array of evidence, has been compiled against all tho thieves and when they are plated on trial thoy will bo surprised to learn how well tho cases havo been worked up against them. Thus far only two aro in custody Lowther and Zollner and thoy aro in tho I'ottsvillo jail. Several others aro wanted and they know it, for they aro keeping mighty "shady." Tho autkoiitles havo planned a patlont campaign and expect to havo all, or at least most, of tho gang in custody beforo a great while From tho evidenco now in hand it is con clusive that Zollner, although ono of the youngest members of the gang, is ono of tho primo movers, in fact possibly more of a leader than Kllno himself, Zollner docs not clearly understand why ho has been ar rested and takc3 tho whole thing as a good joko, but when tho tlmo arrives for his trial tho Commonwealth will show that he is the ono who took tho $1,500 from tho bureau drawer iu Brennan's house, whilo tho rest of tho gang awaited his return iu a noigh boring alloy. It is but just to stato that tho roport that the $500 recovered was secured through a search of the Lowthor house on West Coal street was not strictly correct. A search warrant had been issued, but beforo it could be executed Mr. Lowther, fathor of one of tho prisoners, Burreudered tho money to Justice Oardin. Tho father said ho found tho money by chance in his house and know ing that it did not bolong thero concluded to turn it over to tho authorities. Tho object of tho explanation is to show that no suspicion has beeu directed against tlio father. VEIIY man, woman and child in town capable of reading a nowspapor gasped in a spell of surpriso last evening when they read tho returns of the popular public school tcachors' contest in tho Herald. It was indood a big surpriso to sco Hiss Baird ovcrcoino, in ono day, a lead of over 30,000 held by Miss Stein and jumped into first place. It was almost beyond belief. Quito naturally tho contest was tho leading topic of conversation last night and to-day. Tho talk over the capturo of tlio two Kllno gang burglars was thrown into tho shado. "Wasn't that a jump?" was heard on all sides and many pcoplo seemed completely staggered by tho surpriso. Tho contest Is now attracting tho attention of tho sporting fraternity and it is said that many heavy bets wero mado after last night's annouueomcnt. Ono heavy bet was made that notwithstanding tlio tremendous strido Miss Baird had mado Miss Stein would hold first placo at tho closo of tho contest One prominent gentleman mado a good sized bet and gavo odds of 5 to 3 that Miss Wasloy will hold first or second placo at the end. The interest now evinced in tho contest is indescribable Young and old aro com plotely worked over it, and oven somo of tho staid old citizens who novor tako an interest in competitions of any character nervously held tlio Herald bofon them last night and exclaimed, "Well, I swow." Tho returns moderated yesterday, but reached a pretty good flguro and Miss Baird still holds tho load, with Miss Stein a closo second. Nellie Baird - 74377 Agnes Stein 7000 Mamo U.

He is held upon a very serious charge and unless he can produce witnesses to show a good roputa- tion and modify the charge against him by showing that ho was made irresponsible for his actions by drink ho may receive a heavy sentence at tho hands of the court. Dougherty, if such is his name, was on Gilbert street this morning and made inde cent propositions to soveral llttlo girls. Ho attempted to Induce ono little girl tw'olvo years of ago to go into an alloy with him and used most filthy language in speaking to her.
