ANOTHER VICTORY WON, Tho l'ottavlllos Mmle a Onllunt right to Tie tlio lteroril lint tlio Homo Club I'Icliletl luu llrlllliuitly for Tlioin Setley's.Tlmcly Hulling. HE patrons of tho dia mond havo not seen a botter gamo at tlio Trotting park than that which was played yos terday afternoon. It was within an aco of belug perfect and thcro was not ono on tho ground who was dls- satisfied with tho result, save perhaps Man agcr liobor, of tho Pottsvillo club, who had counted upon a victory and felt very much chairrlnod that ho was obliged to go back to his homo and say tho championship was bo yond question. Yesterday's contest was tho fourth of tho championship series. Iiobcr counted upon Jordan and Potts, an excellent pitcher and catchor, and both good general players, and had tho hope been realized tho series would liavo stood 2 to 2 and then "Phenomenal" Smith, who had been secretly engaged for to-day's gamo at Pottsvillo, was counted upon to mako tho series stand 3 to 2 in favor of Pottsvillo. It was a deep laid schemo, but tho "coal diggers" drove chutes and headings under it and blastod tho wholo thing. Tho attendance was largo and tho spectators, though at times extremely en thusiastic, woro very woll behaved. Thcro Is hardly a tiling in this world in which viows aud opinions clash as frequently as in base, ball, thcroforo when ouo makes a decided statement on tho result of a gamo ho cannot oxpect that it will bo accepted by all as correct. With this fortificatiou, as It wcro, tho writer will say that tho result of yostcr- day's g.imo was brought about by tho homo team's brilliant fielding. Sotloy left the grounds a decided hero, but It was not really his pitching that won him tho distinction, It was his batting in tho fifth inning, when ho covered Toman's thrco-baggcr with a run, and his batting in tho ninth when ho brought Ed. Henry and Toman homo. Only fivo hits aro recorded against Setloy, but ho has pitched botter games at tho Trotting park than that of yostorday. Toman, Martin and Patcheu gavo him excellent support. Truo thoy were on tho diamond for thut purpose, but fortunately for Sotloy's record and that of tho team their work was nbovo tho ordinary seen at tho Trotting park. Toman really was tho feature worker of the day. His work in tho second inning, when ho brought about a double play and followed up with a grand catch of what appeared to bo a safo liner abovo his head won applause and cheers that lasted for some time. "Oappy" Martin distinguished himself in tho fifth by bagniug to very sour looking files. Ward, too, played a good game. Ho had no orrors and retired tho siilo in tho third inning with two assists and a fly catch. Patcheu was not "in ii" with tho bat, but ho was In with the rank and filo with his field 4ng and two of his catches wero tho result of excellent judgment. Jordan was tho pitcher of tho day and ho had a splendid assistant in Potts. Tho first run was made by Shenandoah on Ward making a hit, stealing to second, get. ting to third ou a passed ball and being brought homo by Fox's two base hit. In tho fourth inning Pottsvillo took tho lead by reason of errors. Ed. Honry made a wild throw to first and this followed by a wild pitch and an over throw to first by Setloy allowod Hill and Jordan to scoro, making the tally 2 to 1. In tho fifth inning Setloy redeemed him self, Toman started out with a threo-bagger, Martin went out ou Nyco's throw to first, Ed. Henry struck out and Setloy brought Toman homo on a hit. Sotloy wa3 left on baso by Fulmor going out on a fly to Nyco, who mado an excellent record during tho gamo. In the sixth inning tho homo team added anothor run to its scoro by Ward making a hit, getting to third on a wild pitch and reaching tho plate when Fox was thrown out by Rollly at first. Tho ninth was the exciting inning of tho gamo. Patchon, whoso battiug was dependod upon to a great extent, went out on a fly to Qoldeu. Ed. Henry followed with a hit and Toman did likewise. Martin wont out on a fly to Cavanaugh. Two men out and two men on bases Henry and Toman. Frank Henry comes to the bat. It was his day off for batting. Tho umpire calls threo balls and two etrikes aud a largo majority of the Fpectators look upon threo strikes as a fore gono conclusion. But no,tho last ball pitched by Jordan is a ball aud Henry takes his base. Who is tho noxt batter? Setleyl "Oh, pshaw 1" says a Pottsvillo man sitting behind tho scorers, "neither of those men will sooro. I haven't soen Setloy do any hitting yet." The words aro hardly uttered when whack! What what what la that J It la the batl Setloy lnw made the hit of the day, and a timely ono. Ed. Henry and Toman como Into tho plate, Frank Henry goes to third and Sotley lands on first. Tho shouts and cheers that followed must llrd at havo boon lJeard at Mahanoy City. Frank Ward throw li Is arms around Setloy's neck and became so hugglugly delighted that Mrs. Setloy looked twico to see that tho man in tho red sweater was not a woman. Even our enemies from tho patches woro shouting "Hurrah for Setloy !" After thojxcltetncnt died out Fulmor went up to tho plito and tho spectators cheered again, for they felt suro that tho"old reliable" would bring, I'rauk Henry homo; but Sotley started from" first and mado an opening which got Honry Into a fox cliaso between third baso and tho home plato and tho sldo was retired by Nyco putting Henry out on a throw to Potts. Tho visitors did not last long hi tho lost half of tho muth. Patcheu bagged Jordan's fly, Fox touQicd tho first bag beforo Itoilly could get tliCTo aud McGcttlgan's fly dropped Into Ed. Houry's hands. Thus closed tho host gamo oPjho season at tho Trotting park. Somo reoplb loft tho grounds with injured Icoliugs towards tho umpire Thoro woro sonio rank i eclsions.

Bradley is still laid up on account of his injured kuoe aud may not pitch again this season. Whenever an umpire favors Pottsvillo tho county seat papers always praiso him and say ho Is impartial, Pottsvillo will be groatly strengthened aud will give Shenandoah a defeat it will remom her, 2epublican. Not this season. If Shenandoah should bat "Phoenominnl" Smith, tho ono-tlmo Allentown and Philadel phia wonder, it would bo a groat feather. Potts, who caught for Pottsvillo yesterday, is ouo of tho most genial fellows who havo appeared on tho local diamond this season. Should tho weather continue mild and a Buflklent number of good clubs hold togothor tho Sbcuaudoah season will be extended Into tho latter part of October. Shenandoah has beaten Pottsvillo four games out of five, but ouly threo of them eount in tho championship series. Tho Lakoslde gamo is not counted. Many town people aro anxious for the homo management to get two or threo of tho National Leaguo clubs hero beforo the season closes, oven if the admission price would havo to be raised.

UT a fow days ago this paper announced tho marriage of William J. Sincock and Miss Louisa II. Mllllchap, both well known and respected In tho town, and tho union was looked upon with grat ification by all thoir friends. To-day, how- over, an unpleasant sequel to tho happy event finds Us way into tho samo columns by roason of tho sudden disappearance of tho groom under circumstances which have croatod qulto a stir in tho community. Tho oaso is a most peculiar ouo aud uullko any other that has yet como boforo tho pcoplo of tho town. No secret is mado of tlio facts by any of tho parties immediately intorcsted. In fact thcro seems to bo a disposition that all tho circumstances shall bo mado as public as possiblo so that tho truthful vorslon of tho affair may counteract tho many ridiculous storios that havo already galuod circulation. Ouo of these distorted stories is that tho groom loft suddenly becauso ho had misap propriatcd $100 bolongiug to tho Shenandoah Manufacturing Company. This story ouo of tho firm emphatically denied to-day aud stated that Mr. Siucock's accounts with tho company aro correct. Sincock was employed by tho company as travoliug salosniau and general assistant at tho factory. Ho aud Miss Mllllchap wero marriod on tho 13th lust., and on the samo day thoy started ou their bridal tour. On Saturday last they went -housekeeping on South Jardlu street, uoar tho residence of tho bride's parents. Yostorday afternoon Sincock di.-aappearod without tolling his wife or any of his friouds whero ho was going. Ho lias not been heard from Biuco aud somo of his intimate friends say it is not likely that ho will return. During his wife's abseuce ho entered tho house by way of a window, put on a roservo suit of clothes and then hur ried to tho Pennsylvania railroad depot. It is supposed that ho left ou tho 11: 15 a. m. train lor Philadelphia. A reporter called on Mrs. (Sincock to-day at the residence of her mothor, Mrs. Eliza Mllll chap, 207 South Jardiu street. Tho young woman was evidently much distressed, yet seemed willing that her position in tho mat ter should be fully explained to the public. She said that before tho wedding Sincock ui bured her that he hail more than sufficient funds in the Merchants' National Bank to furnish a home, but it was decided to only furnish a kitchen and bod room beforo tho weddiug aud mako the balance of the pur chases after the bridal tour, when tho bride would havo ample time to 6elect and arraugo all that mlghtbo ntoded. What things woro purchased Mrs. Slucock says sho understood had boon paid for beforo thoy started ou their trip, but upon their return Mrs. Slucock learned that mauy of tho things had not been paid. Sho also learned that her husband had no money In bank. Tho latter discovory was mado through a check. On tho wed ding day Sincock gave his mother a chesk for delivery to Beddall Bros, in payment for a range. The check was returned as "no good," and Mrs. Sincock demanded an explanation. Tho husband mado a plausible statement and said ho would make matters right within a few days Yesterday morning Mrs. Sincock called at her husband's place of business and do mandod money to pay for all the goods that had been purchased and for other things needed for the house. Sincock asked for timo aud said ho would meet her at their homo at 10 a. m. He failed to koep tho en gagement and tho wife again called at tho factory. This timo ho asked that tho matter be delayed until noon and the wife con sented. Tho interview at which this ar rangement was mado was tho last straw. Mrs. Sincock declared that if sho did not receive the money she would not livo with Sincock any more. Before the time for tho second appointment oxpired Sinoock had disappeared. To-day the wife was engaged in returning the uupaid far articles to tho dealers. They aro as good as now, having been in use ouly four days. The paid for articles and the personal effects tho wife had removed to her mother's residence. "I know I am the cause of tho breaking up and I regret that my aetlon has oeeaslonod so much public discussion," said Mrs. Sinoeek to the reporter, "but he deceived me so com pletely that I lost all confidence In him and I was determined that he should make things right at once, or I would not live with him auy longer. He told me he had plenty money lu the Imuk for our wants aud I left a good home and good position to marry him, When I discovered tho true state of afflalre I lat all (ay ftiitli and eeuld see no other course than the an I teok. Repeated promt' os to mako good what ho had done wero not kept and I told him that I would oxposo nud leavo him. His doparturo was not premed itated. I boliovo ho was not in his right mind when ho loft, for uflor I told htm I would loavo and oxposo him ho seemed, dazed and for qulto n while could only say, 'Don't loavo mol Don't loavo mo!' Ho bogged that I remain another month with him and under no circumstances loavo tho town, hut his decent had forced mo to the determined, stand I took and I would not rotrcat. Had ho told mo tho truth boforo our marrlago I would not havo consented to the ceremony at the time." An Intimate friend of Sincock told a re porter this morning that tho missing man had an iuherltago in Stafford, Englaud. That tho request is to bo divided between Slucock and his sister, aud from tho sale of property already mado the funds lu hand amount to $8,000. This is to be increased by sales of threo additional pieces of property. Thocstato Is so tied up at present that Slu cock could not draw anything from It, but thosolicitor in chargo offered to advance somo money. This oiler Siucosk accepted by a letter ho mailed to England a fow days boforo tho wedding, but up to tho presant timo tho remittance lias not arrived. Siucock's friends bcliovo that ho depended upon this money to furnish tho houso and meet other expense. Mrs. Slucock said to-day that tho story about tho inheritance as above given was correct and that she had seen tlio lettor from tho solicitor, but that did not alter tlio oasc. Had sho known that her husband was de pending upon tho future ontiroly tho coro uiouy would not havo taken place. Sho had been led to boliovo that there woro ampla funds lu tho bank hero and when sho dis covered that this was not so and that Sincock had married her on nothing her faith In him was shattered. Mrs. Sincock says that tho wholo afl'alf arises from deception. Sho has no other source for complaint. Sinco the marriage her husband had not uttered a cruel word, but to tho con trary seemed anxious to do overythlng to mako her comfortable and happy. Sho says frankly that sho beliovos ho was temporarily dorauged by her throats to expose and aban don him and that his doparturo was duo to a suddcu impulse. Tho Shenandoah Manufacturing Company spoak highly os Sincock so far as his relations with them aro concerned. Ho camo to this town from Mt. Carnicl aud had been employed. In the factory about three years. .. -OjSeofSlncoclt'a most Intimate friends said to-day that ho believed tEero was a gravo nils tako some where ; that tho man was subjected to a sudden aud sovcre pressure which his miud was uuablo to withstand. Had ho como to mo, said tho gentleman in question, I would havo unhesitatingly floated him ovor his diflicultios, for my knowledgo of him and his allairs convlncos mo that in time every thing would havo been righted. This inform ant added ho did not think Sincock would return. Mn Sincock oamo from a very respectablo family. Sho has always beou rogardod as im estimable young lady and had a largo acquain tance with tho people of the town on account of her loug employment in some of the princi pal dry goods stores on Main street. IT IS MARY DAVENPORT. Our Own "uvetty Alary" Moving In Sight Again. Among tho' theatrical companies billed for auoarly appearanco in this town is one Which rejoices in tlio proud aud lengthy titlo of Latoska Operatic Spectacular Company. According to our exchanges the company has already appeared in several towns of thisstate with poor satisfaction. One of the oxchangos, tho Shamoktu Dispatch, says tho company is composed of none others than May Davenport and a troupo of bloudes(?)and is quite bitter in its criticism of the performance. The paper says thecompiny is an aggregation of female concert hall singers and Bowery dlvohouucers; that they couldn't sing at all and didn't dance much better. Tho females made a lib eral display of their pedal extremities aud, ono of them captivated tho gallery gods by slugging ono of tho would-bo actors. Con tinuing tho paper says tho porformanco wasa dismal failure and many persons left the house in disgust beforo the show was over aud the manager of the theatre says ho was Imposed upon by tho advauco representative, who booked tho company under the name of Harry Divls instead .of Harry Davenport. May and Harry Davenport need no intro duction to this community. It will be re membered that several years they woro resi dents of this town and oouduoted fivo and ten cent stores here. It was her connection with these stores that gave May Davenport her title as "Novelty Mary." The announoanBt that Harry Davenport had decided to give up nierchantilo reran He and enter the theatrical business oreatd a surprise lu town that was only exceeded in effect by a later discovery that Mary had also taken to the stage and was sailing about tho country as tho star of "May Davenport's Burlesque Company."
