1 ELL 1 Well!! Woilllt
So wo h vo downed tho
Pottsvlllca again! And
can anyono who wit
nessed tho gaino yester
day conscientiously say
that as between tho
Pottsvillo and Shenandoah clubs tho latter
has not decisively shown its right to tlio titlo
of champions? At Lakeside our club won
fair and f quarc by a scoro of !) to 0 ; at Potts
villo wo were handicapped by darknoss, but
gracefully submitted to the claim of defeat
by tho other side; yesterday, with conditions
equal in every respect, wo walloped them out
of their boon.
There were a number of disinterested
spectators ou tho grounds and all agreed that
when it comes to playing bnso ball with all
conditions iqual Fottsvlllo is not "in It" with
Shenandoah. Tho visiting club was clearly
out-classed at overy point. They were beaten
in battiDg, pitching, fielding and baso run
nlng, and It is aquestlon if a mljudgmont of
tho umpire did not derive Shcuaudoab of two
inns. The crowd that witnessed tho game
was tho largest of the season.
People acquainted wilh all tho facts and
circumstances know that tho rivalry between
tho two clubs has boon most bitter and that
both tetms exerted thoir utmost powers yts.
terday to attaiu supremacy. Pottsvillo made
a gallant struggle, but there was at least one
barrier they could not overcome, and that was
tho homo battory llradley and Mcssitt. To
thorn tho most of tlio credit Is due, as will bo
shown by tho summary below. Bradley had
nlno Btriko outs and added four assists.
Meesitt accepted every chance and was quits
clover with tho bat. Truo, wo had
oxcelleut support from Patcheu and bhaffer,
but they only contributed to tho siiecess.l
Little Ionian did not havo much to do
and, unfortuuately, it was his orror that
allowed the Pottsvilles to-make tlio only run
they scored, but tho noxt chanco he received
was ono that placed to his credit a most
excellent and timely play.
Botley did not show up to any advantage
until tho last innii g, and thcu didn't he
sparkle! IIo retired the sido in grand stylo.
Ho caught tho illes by John9on and McGottl
gan with admirable giuce, and had Uellly's
tly in his hand, but dropped it. Reilly got to
first and then tried to steal sccond,but Sotley's
great throwing powers knocked his ambition
into a cocked hut. Sctley quickly recovered
the dropped ball and Bent it to Henry with
great accruracy from tho loft field, and thus
saved himself from criticism.
Tho Pottsvilles cannot say that they were
in tho gamo at any sta?o. It kept them busy
to prevent Shenandoah irom piling up tho
runs, and tho latter's players went out by
reckless attempts to steal bases. Hot'' Fox
and Cavanaugb made this thoir principal
point of battle, and to their credit it can be
said they succeeded well; still the homo team
stole four bases ou them.
In different three innings Shenandoah got
seven men to the bat, and In ono they got six.
In no inning did Pottsvillo get morothan five
men to the bat, and that ouly occurred twico
Tho only time tlio Pottsvilloa mado the
home peoplo apprehensive was in tho third
inning, when Salmon got his base by being
bit and Hill started him on a run with a two
bagger. Salmon was sprinting like a trotter
towaid third when Toman inissod the throw.
Salmon got homo and Hill roanbwl third
Tho people wore really nervous then. Moore
followed with a hot bit which Bradley
stopped with an oieellent high left hand
catch and retired Mooro at first. Bradley
then rebtortd confidence by striking out
O'Kourko and Johnson, Keilly won hearty
applause by capturing a terriflo ball from
Fuluier's bat in the sixth inning.
There was only one double play during the
gamo and that was mado by Keilly capturing
a pretty stiff drive from Bradley's bat aud
retiring Fulnier at second.
Martin showed up in his old time form at
short stop, and captured some excellent drives,
aitnougu on a couple occasions Shaffer's first
base work saved him from errors.
Patchen established himself in the estima-
tiou ef the audience as a great batter aud
good playor generally. Fulmer played his
usual steady game and started tho work of
binding down tho trisltora by capturing tho
first tly sent to tho outer field, which was hit
by Salmon.
Salmon's tprintlng ability didn't avail him
much yesterday. When put to a real test he
failed. In the eighth inning he bunted the
ball, but Bradley's cool head wu too much
for tho sprinter's feet, aud when Salmon
reached first he was very touch chagrined to
find the ball there, in Shutter's hands.

OiiE'3 OBSERVATIONS.
Vhat;iII St i-s nuit Ufais During 1 1.
Travels.
I notice in tlio published proceedings of tho
Grand Enoanipeuient of tho Sous of Veterans,
hold at Cincinnati last month, tlio age limit is
now twouty ouo years, instead of eighteen as
heretofore.
Tho recent hall storm was tlio causo of a
good joko beicg played upon several Fiist
warders. During tho down pour a number of
people wero congregated in Moaklcr's saloon,
on East Centre streot. Tho proprietor, with
out tho knowledge of thoso present, placed a
large piece of ico upon the pavement. There
was a loud poal of thunder, aud the ex
Councilman quiotly walked to tho door aud
looked out. With an exclamation of surprise
lie called his patrr.us, and showed them the
supposed immcuso hail stone that had just
fallen. Tho eyes of those that saw It were as
largo as tho lump of ico, aud each ono wanted
to preserve It, claiming it to bo an ill omon of
the coming Waterloo .of tho Schuylkill
Democracy.
Recently there has been some nowspapcr
illhcusaiou of the popular superstition that one
cannot touch tho body of a murdorod man
without tho permission of a Coroner. This
has led to tho discovery of another popular
delusion. There is a common belief that if
ouo should see a crimo commitod through
glass, that is, through a window, a glass door,
or oven through spectacles, his testimony
would not bo accepted. A lawyor, in dis
cussing theso idoas, said: "There is moro law
aud Ions common seufo in tlio lay world than
any sane man could bellovo."
there is ono class of people who are be
ginning to feel joyful. It is the hay fever
class, of whom thero are a great niauy iu this
town, aud it is said that tho attacks of the
annoying dlaeaso this season havo boon un
usually severe, partaking Bomowhat of tho
eyclouio order. They aro fully ontitlcd to
g' neral sympathy, for although the disease
lsnotofafatalcharacter.it is of all others
ono of the most annoying aud distressing.

At the beginning of the boasoti Pottsvillo
refused. to play with Shenandoah, claiming
superiority. Tho shoo is ou tho other foot
now.
Paddy Fox, Pottsville's pride, has been
humblod by our chatnrions.
It is "our champions" now in fact. Even
boastful Pottsvillo admits it.
Stop this cackle about Shenandoah treating
visiting clubs with bludgeons. Tho man whu
talks that way, or writes that way, should be
muzzled. We havo seen tho Dolan park mob
do things that came near ending in riot and
bloodshed. The public is sick of bearing to
