Mine Inspector Stein, lu conversation
with a Heuald reporter, savs the mil
llshed reports In referenced the accidents
occurring recently at Uoston Hun, Gil
berton nnd Packer No i collieries were
altogether wrong. He says the man who
was futally Injured at Ii stou Hun was
not an employe of the colliery, and that
there were n deiths at Gilberton. The
accident at Packer No 4 was trilling. The
explosion was caused by one of the men
striking a maicu to ngnt ills sarety lamp.
The two miners. Miller nnd Huskl, were
worklnir in breast 15. West Buck Moun
tain, seventh lift, when their breast
rushed and caused them to lose their

The Indians Failed to Draw.
The flaming announcement of the game
of base ball between an Indian team and
the Ashland nine, at the latter place on
Friday, failed to come up to expectations
nnd was one of the biggest fizzles of the
season. About 800 people were sorely dis
appointed. The Indians were from New
ork state, nnd nn ordinary team from
one of the patches could easily give them
points on the game and beat them two to
one. The manager, it is said, was go dis
gusted with the exhibition that he paid
the "lovers of firewater" off and senttliem
home, nfter going down Into his pockets

over the Pennsylvania road, and when It
left Pottevllle five coaohet were well
filled. Tile two hours' ride norosn the
Chesapeake Bay on the palace steamer
Florence was delightfully breezy. The

travel is getting more popular every day,
THE "PHILLIES" !
ARE OUR MEAT!
The Home Team Wins a Good Game
From Them.
YEAGER WAS A PUZZLER.
There Were Many Excellent Points In
the Game and the Shenandoahs Had
to Hustle to Score the Victory.
Despite the unfavorable weather several
hundred people gave the home team a
royal welcome at the Trotting park yes
terday upon Its roturn from the triumph
ant trip through the river region. The
team reciprocated by putting up an ex
cellent game nnd defeating tho visitors,
the Philadelphia state league club,
handily.
The Quaker City nine is not up with
the milks of the national league, either as
to material or record, but it oan put up a
stilt game of ball and made the homo
team hustle at times.
Capt. Meyers' team responded nobly nt
almost every point of the game and the
spectators were justified In the conclusion
that tho town has at last a team which
can go upon t lie diamond nnd give tho
people their money's worth of ball.
Yeager and Messltt worked together
like veterans yeRterday and the former
puzzled tho ''Phillies'' pretty well at
times.
Bradley, who pitched for Shenandoah
Inst season, was in the box for the visitors
part of tho game and whllo he wns there
ho sustained his reputation.
Taking tho gamo all through It can be
said that tho Shenandoahs won because it
put up the better gamo nt all points and
only ernrs in the seventh inning pre
vented it from giving the lenguersn goose
egg. Their opponents put up nn earnest
light, but it was not qutto strong enough
at critical points.
The result of the gnmo is in accordance
with the promises nnd predictions of the
home management that for the balance
of the season the town will have a team
it can count on. The score :
INNINGS.
Shonandoah..... . 0 3 0 0 0 3 5 0 0 II
Philadelphia 0 0 II 0? u 0 4 0 0 I
liIAMONl) POTS.
If It can keep its preseutjpnee the home
team will be n creditable successor to the
team of '03.
The crowd at the yesterday's gamq was
n very orderly one.
That wns n great catch the center
fielder of the "Phillies" mnde.
Musser wns not too heartily npplnuded
wheu he stopped that hot one.
The "Phillies" found Yenger's ball at
all times, but they could not lose It.
All the old time cranks nre beginning
to see some merit in tho homo team now.
Hereafter every big club will bo required
to report here the night before the game
is played, as was required In the case of
the Philadelphia club. This will be re
quired to avoid auy more disappointment
at the eleventh hour.
The Philadi'l, bin's club mnnagement
is very strict i h its players, ns to the
hours of retirement, street conduct, etc.
Tho Pottsville series is being awaited
with much impatience. It Is more than
Ilke'y the home team will carry n stir
prise or two up its sleeve for some of the
oracles.

and said they were the parties sought for
by the authorities. They were immc

prosecutor In the case Is Peter Frasco.
Young Whalen Is charged with being nn
accomplice of Tahaney, while the lattei
claims the murderof theltnllau wnsdone
in self-defense, and that will be his plea
before the jury. He Is n sou of ex-Hepre
seutntlve Tahaney, of Jnckson's Patch,
and bears a very good reputation. Ho is
n painter by trade, and for some time
worked in this town. The testimony
before the coroner clearly establishes the
