m mmw CONTEST
jV XMtao Crowd Witnessed tlic flnmo nt
tlio Trotting I'ark Yesterday Afternoon,
nntl feiiw tho Home Tenm Tnko h
Fron Jio Stato IonguerH
HE most interesting
and oxcitlng gamo
played at the Trotting
park was witnessed by
a very Urge crowd
yesterday afternoon.
Tho contest was be
tween thostrongScran
ton team -of tho Stato
Locguo and our champions. Whon tho last
roan was put out in tlio ninth inning the
bcoio showed seven runs to tho homo team's
credit, whilo Scranton was presented -with
five through errors of tho homo players.
Pntchon and Bradley are the -diily ones not
credited with, making an errer.
Outside of tho Srst and second innings,
tho gamo put tip by tho champions of the
county was hard to beat, la fact, it was
equal to tho porforaianco of tho Stato Loaguo
teams. It has often boon claimed by patrons
of tho park that tho home team was equal
if not superior, to a majority of tho clubs in
that league, and tho result of yesterday's
contest adds greatty to that belief Reading
played a ten-inning gamo hero, and it was
mainly through tfeeir good luck 'that thoy
won.
Messitt, as usual, played an oxcelbnt gamo
behind the bat. Uo oaught two men napping
airnrsc. ms throwing to bases was very
accurate and he is also credited -with two
hits, ono a two-bagger.
Barring the first and -second innings, the
homo team played excellent ball, with a snap
and vim that nas pleasant to witness. Ono
of tho features -was twe double plays par
tictpated in by Martin, Henry and Shaffer.
Both Sctley oad Bradloy put up their usual
good gamo. Tho latter got ono fly in left
field, while Setley captured two and made
several good stops of ground balls. Ho, how
over, dropped n Jy on which ho had to run a
considerable distance
Shaffer appeared to bavo an off day, al
though ho redeemed himself by capturing
several badly thrown balls.
Shenandoah scored two runs in tho first
inning. Fulmor was the first man to face
Flanigan, and ha struck out. Martin fol
lowed with a hit to short stop and was re
tired at first base. Then Toman stopped to
itbe.plate and knookod out a throo-Jasa hit.
IPatchen was heartily applauded vhon ho
'.faced thotwirlorfortlieSorantonians, and the
audionco had great faith in his ability to bring
.tlio runner in. The second ball pitched he
lined out to deep right field for a
home run, bringing in Toman ahead of him
The "rectors" for the homo team began to
fool very comfortable until Seranton's half of
the Inning resulted in three unearned runs.
They should have been retired without
singjo run. Tho first man up was Hess. Ho
hit ito Toman, who throw the runner out at
first. Hogan bunted tho ball and reached
first base. He was advanced to second by
Pietz taking his baso on balls. On Lcidy's
hit Hogan scored tho first run. In trying to
head off Peitz at third base Shcaffer .throw
wild, letting in tho two runs. Tigho went
out on Ay to Bradley, and Fritz succumbed to
Setley's eurves by striking out.
ine neat Inning was ashort one. Messitt
went out at first, and Henry and Bradley
each (ailed to connect with the ball.
In Soraaton's'hatf Moran reached first baso
on an error -by Toman. Zecher was tho noxt
man up. Setloy had pitched one ball when
Managor Bradlgan called to him from the
players' benoh to leave the box and go to left
field, Bradley taking fcis place. This aetiou
was severely criticised by many upon the
Brand stand, and when Setley came from the
field at tho end of tho Inning ho was heartily
cheered. Setley was certainly pitching good
ball up to this time, and it was no fault of his
that the runs wore scored, ill of them being
unearned. lio struck out ono man, and the
opposing batters had only one hit off him,
The management no doubt thought he was
weakening, but many quostioned tho wisdom
of the change
On Flaalgan's out from Toman to Shaffer
Moran scored the fourth run for Scranton
That was tho last run scored by tho visitors
until the eighth inning, when they added one
more to their tally.
In the sixth Patchen brought in the third
run for Shenandoah on Messitt's two-bagger,
and the following inning they took the lead
by two more runs. In tlio last Inning, the
most oxciting of all, Henry got his base by a
mull by Fritz of a third strike. Bradley
attempted to bunt the ball and as a rosult
sent a daisy between first and second. Leidy
made one of the beet plays of tho game, in
retiring Fulmar by a miming fly oateb.
Martin's out at first brought in Henry, and
Bradley subsequently toured the last run ou
an error of Morsn's by dropping a thrown
111 from the catcher.
In Seranton's lost Inning they went out in
Short order. The score:

fear thatAho bullet wound in tho chest will
result fatelly. Amour is exceedingly weak
and suffers from want of sleep. The doctors
have decided not to administer any nioro
drugs to produce sleep and he cannot securo
natural rest. His right lung is completely
clogged by congealed blood and all respira

whole tho victim's condition is much worse
than it has bees at any time since tho first

Breunan was sitting ivlth frieuds on tho

This action of Louther's is a samnlo of fits
characteristics and those of others in tho
Kline gang. They are completely devoid of
all moral responsibility and are most cunning
and desperate. They have figured before th
rublio in criminal acts of almost
nature, but their shrewdness has covBr?
their tracks in almost every case, and they
havo succeeded in escaping arrest or con
viction. Kline and others of the gang havo
been missing since the Brennan robbery was
committed. Kline is supposed to have taken
most of the stolen money with him.
