PRETTY FEATURES Setley's Arm Have Out and he ltetlreil 1'roiu the llox r.uthuslnsm Aroused Over n Timely Home Itun Toole Makes Another Acrob ttlc Catch. Fully twenty-flve hundred people wit nessed tho defeat of the home team by thu Altooua club 011 the Trotting park bae ball grounds nnd had an opportunity to judge well tho spots of the homo diamond chasers in which the greatest weaknesses prevail. Notwithstanding the large margin by which the visitors won the game and the heavy batting they Indulged lu the home club mndo a very gallant uphill fight. Thnt most of the players were outclassed thero can be no doubt. In fact the man agement did not look for n victory. Be fore the game stnrted some of theolliclnls said they would be satisfied if tho pouies would try to put up a guuethnt would show the spectators that they tried to win. As a matter of fact tho Altoonn club was an eleventh hour acquisition of the management. The Royersfords held the date all last week until Saturday after noon then they found they could not come. The Phoenixvtlles telegraphed late in the dny that they would llll the date, but iu the evening again telegraphed that they could not come nnd if ever there was a base ball mnuoger in hot water Mr. J. Reilly was one. He spent over three dollars ill telegrams before ho received assurance at 10 p. m. thnt the Altoonns would be on deck. This is n full explanation as to why It wns not deilultely known by many people until almost the Inst moment what outside club would play here. The un certainty caused some rumors of "fake," but the truth of tho matter is the manage ment exerted Itself in face of n sore dis appointment to give the people a good re turn for their money. The Altoonns took a winning lead in the first inulng by making three singles and a two bagger oil Setley's delivery. The pitcher's arm wns In poor condition, but he struggled along with pretty fair success until the fourth Inning, when a base on balls and another hit discouraged him and he retired from the box, taking Henry's place In right field. Mulderig succeeded Setley. The very first man who went to the bnt nfter the change, Young man, whacked the ball for a three bagger, but for the rest of the game Mulderig held tho visitors down to four singles and n two bagger. The visitors were full of blooded sluggers and put the home team to a test which brought out some very pretty lleldlng. Little Toman did excellent work at short and figured Iu two exciting double plays. In the sixth inning, after tho visitors had scored two runs by n double, a single nnd two passed balls, Toole retired the side bv 1111 acrobatic capture of a driving low 1. o left Held. In making tho play Toole Mood upon his head for fully Ave secouds and the put out was a big surprise 10 the visitors. Up to the close of the fifth inning Sheu andonh proved very Ineffectual at the bit and the score stood 0 to 1 against them. In the sixth inning Reilly stnrted out with n hit and wns advanced to second on Toole getting his bnse on balls. Henry went out on a foul fly caught by Cote nnd Fulmer wns retired on a fly to third base. Then enmo the star play 0: the day. John son send a long drivo to cose right field, bringing iu Reilly and Toole nnd scoring a home run. Euthuslasm ran high, but the score which wns thus mnde 0 to 4 was Immediately changed to 8 to 4 when the visitors plnyed their part of the Inning. Iu the seventh iuning the home team got another batting streak. After Toman nnd Reilly had been retired on flies Setley made a two bnirgur aud wns advanced by Reilly's hit. Hagen's error assisted both men in Bcoriug and when Mulderig and tho side were retired by Hnrtinon's throw to first base the score stood 8 to 6 In favor ot Altoona. The visitors failed to score in thnt inuilng, but iu tho eighth they mnde the ball hum and prevented the home players from scoring iu thnt Inning aud the ninth. The Shennndonhs got a case of bod rattle in the eighth and when three of the visitors were in a fox chase failed to retire any of them. Watchdogs were chained to the bases during the entire game nnd the only man who succeeded in purloining n bag wns Fulmer. The score : SIIEKANDOAH. n. In, I'O, A, E.

Toman Is niokiiiB a record which will surpass that he made here last year. Shenandoah could rot rely u.ion lis base stealing, nnd Fulmer didn't let the visitors steal any. The latter Is a good 'un. The Bsrnum and Forepsugh shows will be looking for Toole. The grand stand wns not large enough for the Altoona game, We hnve a pretty good club but when we run up against state league teams we need batters. Considering the odds against them our team did well against tho Altoona. Setley's arm is evidently out of gear. The two passed balls which allowed the two runs to be scored were due to an injury to one of Fulmer's fingers. The Lakeside Electric Railway helps to swell the throngs nt the park.

The coal train had been standing on ft siding nt Pocker No. S colliery and as it was being run down the grade toward the engine waiting for it the brakeman lost control and the train ran away. The men iu charge of the coal engine took in the situntion nt a glauce and full steam was put on. but the momentum wns so great thnt the runaway train over took the engine before it could get head way. The cars and engine came together with n tremendous crash and n great cloud of dust was raised, but not a whtel left the rails.
