lated a list of grlvances
about six weeks ago
and presented them to the Heading officials
at Philadelphia. On Friday night Vice
President Voorhecs mailed hli reply to tho
demands of tho men. A rumor was current
yestorday to tho effect that nearly all tho con
cessions asked for by tho men had been
granted. A United Press rcportor made dili
gent search and inquiry In railroad circles
last night, hut failed to find any confirmation
of tho rumor. A
On the other hand It Is said that tho
grievnnco committee held n secret meeting
at Say ro, Pa., on Saturday, and that' tho
reply of Vice President Voorhecs was en
tirely different. From what was learned
Inst night this reply says In eilect: "Wo
cannot at this tlmo grant any more wages.
This would increase the expenses over a
million dollars per year. The other griev
ances will be looked ofter at once, and the
company will do all it can to remedy any
existing evil."
Tlio Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen
hold a secret meeting in this city last
night, at which the reply of Vice President
voorliees was also made known. The out-
como of the negotiations was anything but
sntistactory to the men, ana while they
decllno to discuss the question In any way
with outsiders, it is pretty well known
that they aro bitterly disappointed. They
bold that the grievances submitted were
just and reasonable, and even if the com
pany granted all of them at onco it would
only place them on an enual footinc with
their company employes on tho other divi
sions or tlio Heading system.
Only very few talk strike at this time,
owing to the slack business on tho road.

tion in any way at present.

CLEVER I'LAYINO.
Many clever plays woro mado on tho field
by both tcnius and tlio largo audience did not
discriminate iu recognizing them. Unfor
tunately thii cannot ho said of tho umpire,
and ou moro Until ono occasion tho audience
exhibited its disapproval. Air. Whalou's
"call down" of Sctloy was looked upon as a
lllt'o harsh and many thought that soino of
tho Jcancsvillo player3 deserved moro
consuro than tho "llttlo wizard," cspeclal'y lu
tho ninth inning.
It is also thought that Mr. Whalcn's!pollcy
of "ovou up" is erroneous. If ho makes a
mistake and calls u ball a striko ho should
uot try to mako up for tho shortcoming by
culling a striko a ball. If ho makes a mis
take and does not wish to rectify it lot him
stand by It and not try to pacify tlio dis
contented by uu intentional mUcali. Mr.
Whalou gives satisfaction on tho wliolo as au
umpire, but wo think ho would glvo more
sitlsfactlou by abandoning the policy ro
furred to.
dOOD AS THEIR WORD.
Beforo tho homo team went Into tho field
the players told their friends they would do
their best to win tho game and provo them
Solves equal to any club in tho coal region,
and they did so. In the socond inning they
scoied tho first run, which was brought in by
a splendid drive by Martin, iato of Dauvillo.
Iu tho fourth Inning there wero two groat
outbursts of enthusiasm, ono when Fu liner
made a three bagger and the other when
Sotloy drovo tho bill with terrific speed over
the loft fielder's head aud scored a homo ruu.
Setloy was given au ovation.
In tho first four innings Malarkeydid
nearly all tho fielding work foe tho home
team. Ho scorod nino put outs, six of them
unassisted. In tho third bo did tho work in
ono, two, threo order, retiring tho sido in
slioit time, by stopping O'Donncll's aud Mil
ler's groundeis and bagging Monaghan ) fly.
Tho visitors betted Setley pretty freely In
tho fourth, butMalarkey's activity aud Ful
mer's good judgment prevented them from
scoring moro than ono run.
Nelthor side scored in tho fifth or sixth
inning and tho score remained 4 to 1 in favor
of tho homo team until the first half of the
sovouth, when Fulnicr scored again. The
sixth run was mado in tho ninth Inning.
Tho vieitow gave notice to the graud stand
that their best woik Is always done in the
ninth aud thoro woro good chances for a tio
score. Tho spectators took tho assertion as a-
joko, but after the visitors started batting the
expressions of mirth woro ohrngell to appro
hensious of dofoat.
IT LOOKED SERIOUS.
Falrhurst was the first man at tho bat and
made a bit. Shutt followed with a good two
bigger aud put his prodoceswr up to third.
It was beginning to look serious and ihe
injunction of the Jeauetville oantain to hl
players, "Now you'vo got hor j hit hor hard
all around," was by no means assuring to the
admirers of tho boys who wore tho suits
bea lng tho big letter "S," Bichraan then
hit a gronuder to Malarkoy, who grabbed it.
Falrhursthad meantime started from third
and collided with Messltt at the home nlata
just as tho catchor received the ball on au
aiwmpteu aounie play irom Malarkey. In
me collision 3le&ut uropped the ball and the
run was t cored.
A COLLISION.
llessitt had been temporally dazed bv a
blow received on tho head Iu tho collision and
Shutt, who had been advanced to third by
Uacliman's grounder, thought he would try
to reach home. Bat Messltt was watching
him and before Shutt could get back to hird
the catcher had thrown the ball luto Charl
ton's hands. Monaghan then knoeked a
grouudor to Malarkoy and the side retired.
Henry, Setley, Messltt, Martin. Huilord,
Malaikey aud Fuluier will continue to wear

and tlio excellent homo material to draw
from Shenandoah can now put up a game

OBB'S OBSERVATIONS

Sees anil Hours During III
Travels.
A day or two ago I was at tho Lehigh
Valley depot, and noticed two gentlemen
alight from an oast-bound train. Ono of them
secun-d to bo attracted by somo object nt tho
cud of tho platform in front of tho depot.
Looking In tho samo direction I noticed two
pretty young ladios waiting ' for somo one.
Ono of tho gentlemen roforred to was a
stranger to mo, and had tho appearance of a
commercial drummer. Tho other I knew to
ho tho father of ono of tho young ladles.
Tho drummer remarked that ho had intended
going ou to Hazletou, but tlio nice young
ladles caused him to chango his mind, and he
desired to make their acquaintance. Sjid
tho driimaicr to the father of tho young girl,
"(I03I1, what nlco girls I Do you know them?''
His companion merely nodded, aud the
drummer continued : "Soo how thoy flirt.
I want to make their acquaintance. Couldn't
wo meet those girls after while?" "I don't
know," said tho father of tho young lady,
aud then tho fair damsel greeted hlui with n
kiss. When he explained to tho over anxious
drummer that tho young lady was hia
daughter, ho concluded to go on to Hazloton
In groups of two, threo, flvo or cvon ten
you can seo the measly cauiuos of town run
ning about our streets, at noon, in the even
ing and at early morning. Thcro are
yellow, whito and black pups, social and
dangerous dogs, sneaking and snapping curs,
all aud ovory ono worthless, and yet they aro
allowed to run at largo notwithstanding the
borough ordinance and stato laws to the
contrary. Not one out of ovcry ten dogs iu
the borough to-day is worth ono dollar to
anyone who may claim them, and yet the
community Is always annoyed by their yelp
ing and harking at night and endangered by
their presence upon tlio highways in tho dav

authorities by which tho borough can he
relieved of this nuisance ?

This is the season of tho year, and from
this time ou until September, when little
children suffer from prickly heat. If tho
child could give other expression to the pain
aud annoyances oiused by prickly heat than
by crying, It would bo unnecessary to say to
mothers that a child rarely ories from mere
petnlaneo. It may be naturally cross
tempered sad ory merely because It fools so
ineliued, but in nine cases out of ten there is
a cause for it. A pin poiut may be annoying,
a bandage may be too tight, or something
elje may cause It to glvo outward expression
to tho pain It sutlers. Now under such oir.
oumstaucos the thoughtful mother or nurse
will examine the clothing or body of tho
oh lid, and the probabilities aro lifiit the cause
of the crying will be learned. A sponge
bath, with water at about 00", and In which
a small quantity of baking soda has been
dissolved, will frequently glvo rellof. Such a
bath will not allay the itehlng caused by
prickly heat, but if suoli bathi are given two
or three time, a day during hot weather, will,
it is said, prevent it.
While coming from Glrardvlllo on an
