To,tell tlte story of yesterday's base ball fame 'with tW Pottsville olab at tho Trnttincr rmi-lc ltn riwlln n tnln nf , ruuumj rao orowu ueoouiasee stream ironing pans is to recite n tale oi woe ,imv,. .,. um .ri. ,,,,,,,, u-nniil which brings tears tinged with dUgnst. Slier all the claims the home team made nbout tinfalr treatmont on the Pottsvllle grounds our people braced themselves for a battle of vindication on the home grounds and despite the poor showing the club has made since its admission to the league many still retained the hope that It bad the ability to Vindicate Itself as against Pottsvllle, but the showing made yesterday effectually blasted such conso lation. The conservative snectator could sap when tho two clubs appeared on the dia mond for practice yesterday afternoon that in general appearance the county seatcrs wero head and shoulders above the Scranton heirs. The former are heavy set, brawny fellows, with skin full of con fidence. The Shenandoaha, with the excep tion of Welkert, ore coniparitivcly dwarfs nnd nervousness seems to mark every ac tion. This was particularly noticeable and the visiting players did not fall to ob serve and make capital of It. The defeat of the home team was not a surprise, but that the Pottsvllles should win so easily caused some caustlo com ment. Ut to the seventh inning tlie coal diggers wero no more In the game than tne tan IX is in lavor with the people and at that point it looked as If a shut out was a certainty. Dunkle was a failure In the box. He seemed wholly unable to control the ball and kept Messltt jumping about like one ona red-hot plate. Two two-base hits and a single netted two runB In the fourth lu lling and a three-bagger, a double nnd a single,, garnished with a wild pitch and three errors by thelnflcld, ran-thescore np to 0 to 0 in tho second inning. Yeager was put in the. box In the third and succeeded in holdinc the terrlllo batters down, prettywell until the seventh. inning, wnen ne was ut lor uva singles and a two-baaner. It was in the seventh lnnlnir that the home team broke the ice which was fast entombing it, and the wort came from an unexpected point. Ashenbach, Welkert and Musser were looked to for the batting of the day, but it fell to tho lot of Messltt to carry off the honors, by bringing Welkert home und landing O'ilara at third on n good single In the seventh, and wringing in u-itara witu a two-Dagger in tne mnui. At no stage of the game were there in cldents to arouse cenulne enthusiasm. When Messltt made his hits tho home people among tho spectators became some what jnbtlant, but that enthusiasm which Is born of admiration was lacking and everv dearee of hone was snuelched when the Pottsvllles went to the bat In the seventh and increased their score to 13. One Shenandoah man took a charitable view of thecame. and he was Councilman Archie Lamb. "It only goes to ahow," said he. "how courteous Shenandoah is to visi tors. It gives them everything to make them happy and I am sure if the players could carry the grounds with them we would not witnnom tne gut." ocore t SHENANDOAH. It. in.

DOINGS AT THE COUNTY SEAT Interesting Correspondence From a Close Observer. MR. BRUMM IS ENCOURAGED Several Republican Leaders at Washing ton Pledge Assistance for His Campaign. Special HkbaM) Correspondence. Pottsvillb, Aug, 28. The selection of Burd W. Payne, ot Ashland, as chairman ot tho Republican party ot this county may be n wise one and tho very thing needed, sinco, I am told, he Is not mixed up with any of the factions; but had cither Losch, Davis or Shoener been selected I bellevo all factions would have been united and tho satisfaction would have been more general. It would have been as an olive branch. As it Is, I have heard it intimated that Mr. Payne s appoint ment, will not be ot a very great oeneut vo Stlnc, the Republican candidate for the. Legislature In the becond district. Why It should be Injurious to him no one seems disposed to say. But the choice has now been mnue. Asnianu tias a county repre sentation and it is the duty of every He publican to get down to work, so that If the new chairman is made of the stuff required the party may go to tbe goal of victory, which Is in sight nnd can be reached with little, trouble. One thine should be remembered: As the candidates muat nav the nlner it was no mare than right that they should name the gentleman who Is to handle the cam paign, it he tails to come up to tueir ex pectations the lack of foresight will rest with those who selected him. Meanwhile Mr. Payne should be given n fair show and the hearty support of the party. It is not too eariv to commence active campaign work. Tho ,Democrats have una tne stare ana mucn oi tueir prelimi nary work is under way. When Mr. itellly returns Irom Waslilnntou on Fri day the procession will move. Air. lirnmm lias returned Irom wasu. ington, where he spent several days in consultation with the Congressional cam palgn committee. He is very much en couraged ana win go into tne campaign with promises of assistance from several ot the most able Republican sneakers In the countrv. nnionL-them Hon. Tom Heed. of Malno. Mr. Heed will draw large audiences at all points. , This place has become ono ot the most enthusiastic base ball cities In thecoun try.

Tho addition of Baldwin and Mulligan to the team has set the admirers ot the ganie-almoit Wild with enthusiasm and if the State leaguo pennaut does not come hero it will be im awful shock to them.
