Yesterday's Game Was
an
Indifferent One.
DID POTTSVILLE OTEME?
Tlio atnlmiioy City Flayers Un Away
From Their Opponents Early In Hie
flame The Kesult Is Viewed With
Suspicion Looking for Odds.
LAHGE crowd of Shcn
andoah baso ball en1
thuslasts wont to
Mahanoy City yester
day to see how tho
toam of that placo
would show up in a
contest with tho Potts
villo club, and returned
homo Tory much dis
appointed. Fottsvillo
was looked upon as almost a euro winner by
a largo majority of the poople on tho grounds,
but beforo tho Shenandoah pcoplo started for
tho train thoy were forced to tho conclusion
that tho county scat players had attempted" a
sharp game. They played as bad ball as any
thoy havo shown this season, and no doubt it
was done to bring out some bets in favor of
Shenandoah oil tho game thatls to bo played
hero to-morrow.
Tho Mahanoy City club won by a scoro of
15 to 7 and with "Kid" Williams and Brown
as tho battery. Day, tho negro from Heading,
pitched until Eagan and Moore got their
bases in tho second inning and thou ho called
out to Manager Webber that he could pitch
no more Ho had complained of his arm
before and during tho gamo. '"Kid" Will
iams was sent into tho box after Setloy and
Reese, of Centralis, had been urged to go in
and declined. Setloy says ho was offered
$1.50 to pitch.
Fox, Pottsvlllo's pitcher, was n great dis,
appointment and after tho fourth inning ho
rotircd and "Buck" McGettigan exchanged
places with Mm. "Buck" Hllod tho bill very
satisfactorily and surprised Imany of hie
acquaintances.
During tho gamo spectators romarked that
thero was something peculiar about it and yet
they could not tell just what it was. Two
good pitchers had broken down and two
supposed novices took their places, tho hits
and errors wero about evenly divided, and
yot Pottsville was away to the rear in tho
scoring. Up to tho fourth Inning tho scoro
stood 14-0 in favor of Mahanoy.
In tho second inning the Mahanoy City
team scored Ave and added eight more in tho
third. Aftor that tho visitors appeared to
realize that thoy wero doomed to ignomincua
defeat until thoy put on their war paint, and
they succeeded in holding tho Mahanoys
down to two runs for the balance of tho game,
Tho best opportunity Pottsvillo had in tho
gamo was during tho seventh inning, when it
succeeded in .getting three men on bates
twice, but tho chance slipped through their
hands and thoy only scored one run. Snyder
started out with a hit and Hill brought him
homo with a three-bagger. Martin got his
baso on an error, and Moore took his base on
balls, making three on bases. A good hit
was needed, but Hill was then forced
to run from third by Salmon's light hit and
was thrown out at tho homo plate. Martin
advanced to third and Moore to second,
Again a good hit was required, but McGetti'
gan was unequal to tho occasion and was
thrown put by Richards, tho short stop, at
first. This retiicd the side and Pottsvillo's
chances for pulling up to tho scoro of their
adversaries was looked upon as lost.
in the eighth Inning both sides were
retired without scoring and then Pottsvillo
throw up tho gamo by refusing to play tho
ninth inning and retiring from the field
Tho game by innings was as follows:
Mahanoy City ...... 0 6 8 0 1 1 0 0-16
Pottsville. 0 0 0 0 6 1 1 0 7
Tho Pottsvillo scoring of tho game,
shown by to-day's Journal, is wido of tho
mark, as usual, Tho report of the game from
tho Pottsvillo point of view is, "Pottsville
got tho most hits. Wo outbattod them, but
their Holding work was superb and herein
they excelled us."
This is incorrect both ways. Mahanoy had
11 hits and Pottsvillo 12, and each side had a
homo run, a three bagger and a two bagger
so it is hard to see where the county seat club
outbatted their opponents. Had they done
some hitting in the seventh inning when tho
bases were filled twice there would have been
somo groundfor the claim.
Thejresult of the game is looked upon
here as a trap; for enthusiastic Shenandoah
base ball people, but it is not likely they will
fall Into it. .The Pottsvilles had Cauanaugh
and at least two others on the bench at
MahanoylCity yesterday afternoon and had
they been desirous of putting up the game
they intend to play hero to-morrow they
could have gono in after the third inning
with Cavanaugh and another and made the
tale a different one. But tho Pottsvilles
were not worrying about losing to Mahanoy
City. They wanted to raise tho enthusiasm
of tho Shenandoah delegation and bring out
some odds on,bets.
When it cerate to sizing up a lame bona
tho "coal diggers" mil take the dust from
tho "aristoorats" at uo time. Tho Sbeuan-
doahs will be propaicd to see I'ottaviHx put
up ono uf its lust games uf the season and
thoy can dojiljend upon sooing It, barring
accidents. Ylkstorday's gamo was only a
blind and shou'f Id tho Shenandoahs get tho
idea that thoy Swill have a picnic to-morrow
tho Pottsvilles 1) will como hero smiling up
tholr sleeves, fl But whilo admitting that
yesterday's gaiio was only a "feolor" and tho
Pottsvilles willf play a gamo that will bo hard
to bent, thero .f.iro excellent reasons for tho
belief that theTy will go homo to-morrow
night with anolfl her defeat on tholr backs.

Conry, 0'Hearn,I!urke,

Muldoon, Ogdon, Bed

aud Treziso, tho members In attendance, had
a llvoly timo for a whilo ovor tho question of
havlng tho boating system of tho Shenan
doah Heat and Power Compaiiy in the Main
aud Whito street school buildings.
Mr. Wilkinson appoarcd for tho company
and mado a lengthy statomeut showing tho
advantages of tho company's service and said
that tho chargo was but littlo mOro than what
tho board had been paying for coal ; that it
mado tho chances of tiros lees, XTiu conse
quently tho board will not be ObllfTfed to
carry so much insurauco, which Wou'd bring
tho actual cost below tho sum pa'.d for coal.
Aftor saying that his company would heat
tho Main and ContrQ stw.t buildings. for$53Q
a year Mr. Wilkinson. Wlthdrow.
Mossra. Lynch, Burko and Gallagher at'
tacked tho proposition, and maintained that
tho company's Ilguro was high above reason.
Thoy maintained that last year the heating
of tho Whito street building cost $153 and
tho Main street $1C2, or a total of $315 for
both buildings, including tho cost of repairs'
and hauling away ashes. They also stated
that with an increased uso of pea coal this
year tho cost will not exceed $302, or $213
less thau tho sum asked by tho company.
Mr. Titman thought it would save con
siderable on tho expenses for Janitors' ser
vices and declared that tho company would
sign a contract for heating tho two bulldinra
and keeping them oloan for $100 moro than
tho prico asked for tho hoat, or $050.
Again tho propositon was attacked, somd
mombora arguing that thero was no use
paying an exhorbltant prico for steam heat
to satisfy a few stockholders and dissatisfy
a largo nnmbor of taxpayers. Others ox
pressed themselves with the proposition to
do away with tho janitors audsaid that tho
Janitors would bo required in any ovcut,
becauso a janitross cannot do what tho men
aro obligod to.do about tho buildings in tho
winier.
A votd was nally- taken and It went
against tho accoptaneo of the offer. Under
tho decision tho board will hoat both build
ings with the old apparatus in each, and tho
connections mado with tho Main street build
ing by the heating company last May will
not bo ujied again. Mr. Titman made n
special plea to havo the Main street connec
tions retained, claiming that they wero put in
only as an experiment, had given satisfaction,
and that the company spent nearly all it
received to put them in. The board would
not alter its decision under the vote.
Tho committeo on text books and suppliog
made tho following report through Secrolary
Hanua: "The work of executing tho new
text book law has been done so far vn
satisfactorily. All the schools havo been
supplied with tho neceswiry" books and
