FPKKLAM), I'FN.VA, MAY 11. lsiHL The borough of Shickshinny has a water company which has just done a most unusual tiling. This corporation has passed a resolution granting permis sion to the borough authorities and all property owners to connect with their mains for the purpose of putting in fire plugs, and agrees to supply free of charge all the water necessary to extin guish fires. The action of the Shick shinny company deserves commenda tion. It demonstrates that the men composing it remember that they are under obligations to the borough and its people for the monopoly they enjoy in having free use of the streets, and their offer to furnish free water for fires in return for this favor is worthy of imita tion by similar corporations. The Tainaqua Recorder , one of the brightest babes in the newspaper world, ended its fourth year on Friday and added four pages to properly celebrate i the auspicious occasion. GAME LOST BY A RUN TIGERS DEFEATED IN THE NINTH INNING YESTERDAY. Ciirbondale State League Club Had a Narrow Kscupa from Defeat at the Hands of the Loral Players—Other lta*e Hall Scores and Notes. The Tigers park was auspiciously opened yesterday for the base ball sea son with a pretty fair attendance and beautiful weather. The latter wan all that could bo desired for base ball, and contributed in no small measure to the enjoyment of the game. The only thing that marred the pleasure of the day was tint fact that the home club lost the game, after having a lead of several runs at different times. The game as a whole was well played, and was a nice exhibition. It was con spicious for heavy hitting. The Carbon dale players contributed the largest por tion to this feature, whilst the Tigers' batting was surprisingly admirable, con sidering that they were hitting against a more cxpiercncod and speedier pitcher than their opponents, and also that it was their first game of the season. The Tigers' thirteen hits would have given them nearly equal opportunities to their opponents in run-getting, had they displayed the same carefulness as the State leaguers in running the bases. However, they mado many blunders in this direction which may be said to have cost them several runs. The professionals paid particular at tention to batting and running, and on the bases were extremely careful, which accounts for their few stolen In the field both clubs did nice play ing, although the Tigers made their errors at critical times. The profes sionals' fielding was confined principally to the diamond, only two of their field ers having any outs. They put out a great many runners on the linos. Fol lowing is the score: TIGERS.

Ilinsoti, the colored twirler from Lock Haven, sent word to Manager llanlon on Saturday that he could not get here, diaries Groux, of Wilkcsbarrc, was se cured and did well in the box. The other out-of-town players on the Tigers' list yesterday were: Tody Schmcar, of Jeanesville; Patrick lJoylo, of Honey Brook, and Joe King and Ed Turnback, of Hazleton. The strong Lancaster State league club, which now loads that association, will be the opponent of the local team on the 17th. It is not to be expected that fclio Froeland boys will defeat these high-class clubs in every game played, but they do propose to put up the kind of ball which will make the profession als hustle to keep ahead. During yesterday's game McGarvoy, of the Tigers, had his right hand split while catching a high foul, and was ob liged to retire from the gamo. Reed succeeded lii m. Patcheu neatly band aged the injury by wrapping rubber about the fingers and cementing it fast with the aid of a lighted match. The courtesy was highly appreciated. At the park yesterday morning the Stars met defeat at the hands of the Jeddo club. The score was 13 to 10 in the visitors' favor. The Stars put up a game much below their usual style. Charley McGoehan, of the llazieton club, is at his home in Drifton, owing to an injured leg which he received during practice. Carbondale's winning run was scored on a long hit to left field. Umpire Gal lagher declared it fair, but many others thought it dropped outside the foul llag. All the latest local base ball news will be found in the TKIBI'NK. llazieton is making a miserable show ing in the State league. Saturday's score against the Philadelphia Athletics was 27 to 0. There was little rooting at yesterday's game. However, every good play, and even every good attempt, was mot with unmistakable evidence of appreciation. Groux was struck squarely on the nose during practice before yesterday's game, and this injury gave him a great deal of annoyance in the box. Ho bled off and on during the game. The Tigers occupy a unique position in base ball circles. They have been out of the amateur class so long that to return to play against ordinary clubs would not be tolerated by the patrons of the games, and it is not an easy matter to arrange a full season's schedule with league or other professional clubs. Manager Hanlon, however, is giving dates to none but the very best. Anthracite League. The Fearnots and Travelers -played their first game this season at Drifton yesterday. The game started in as if the audience was to be treated to a lino exhibition, but as it progressed it was evident that the Fearnots were doomed. The Travelers on the other hand hit the ball hard and often, causing Sims after the fourth inning to retire from the box. P. ltoyle took his place, and he was also hit hard. Dugan pitched a good game, allowing the Fearnots only G hits. Following is the score by innings, show ing the number of runs, hits and errors of each club: Travelers ..2 1102 11 o 5 x—3l 23 7 Fearnots...o 0 1 0 1 3 3 2—lo G 10 The scores of other games were: At McAdoo, Athletics 19; McAdoo 10. At Lattimer, Pioneers, 1G; Lattimer, 13. At Drifton yesterday John McKinley, catcher for the Travelers, received .a severe injury to his right hand. The web between the fingers is burst and he may be unable to catch for some time. Games scheduled for May 17: At Hazloton, Travelers vs. Athletics. At Lattimer, Fearnots vs. Lattimer. At McAdoo, McAdoo vs. Pioneers. The clubs stand as follows: W. L. P.C'.I W. L. IT.

James Whltcomb Riley announces hie retirement from the lecture platform. Boston will have none of Mr. Hardy. The public library refuses to issue lo its readers his latest novel, "Jude the Obscure," and his older work, "Two on a Tower." "The Duclioss" lias just published her 28th novel. It is called "A Point of Con science," aud deals with the same kind of characters which she lias made known in her previous 27 works. The London Spectator says that Ste phen Crane's realistic treatment of u battle in "The Red Badge of Courage" is more effective than Tolstoi's efforts in tlie same line. Mark Twain's trip to the far corners of the earth has been wonderfully ben eficial to his health. When he left San Francisco he was far from well, but he told a reporter at Bombay that he felt ten years younger than when he sailed for the orient. John T. Morse, Jr., in preparing "The Life and Letters of Oliver Wendell liolmes," has had the concurrence and help of Dr. Holmes' family. The work comprises two volumes and it is said to be "peculiarly rich in letters that are as attractive and characteristic as any thing Holmes ever wrote." The circumstance that the Athe naeum, one of the chief literary organs of England, has pointedly omitted all menlion or reference to the new laure ate is treated in England with all the seriousness of an affair of state. It is hinted that the editor of the Athe naeum, when reminded that his jour nal had not noticed the appointment of Alfred Austin to the laurenteship, ob served airily that he did not regard it as un item of literary interest. WOMEN OF HISTORY. The wonderful Mme. de Pompadour was not so extraordinarily beautiful. She owed her success to her wit, tact and pleasing manners. Her chief beauty was her hair, which, to increase Jier height, she wore in the style that now bears her name. Queen Elizabeth was of medium height and weight, but gave the im pression of being much taller than sin was. She had a Roman nose and in the lust few years of her life it became very red. Iler cheeks were prominent and forehead broad and shelving. Her eyes were a gray-blue and her hair a decided red. Messalina, the infamous wife of Claudius Caesar, was small and lively; she had black eyes that sparkled when falic talked and a persuading, pleading way that no one could resist. It was raid of her that she was so clever a hyjioerite that she could smile into a lover's eyes when he was drinking the poison she hud prepared for him. Mme. Scarron, afterward the famous Mine, de Main tenon, wife of Louis XVI., was re mark ably beautiful in her girl hood. She was dork, with piercing black eyes and wavy hair. In middle life her gravity of deportment was con sidered, in that age of gaycty, quite re markable. Oue of her enemies said she did not smile once a year. FASHION'S LATEST FRILLS. Rumors of the overskirt, which is the usual accompaniment of tight sleeves, are afloat aguin. Very useful ruches for wear when the fur l>oa is too warm are made of glac • ribbon, or liberty silk, dotted and gathered very full to a ribbou band. Among the novelties in jewelry is a miniature white enamel boat sailing on a green enamel sen. The mainsail, topsail and jib ure set in small dia monds. This is intended to decorate the yachting gown of the season. The new challies, with tiny Dresden bouquets of flowers on a light ground, striped or dotted over with white satin, and patterned all over in Persian de signs with rose green and violet pret tily blended, nre pretty enough to re store this serviceable material to fash ionable form again. TOASTED CRUSTS. Imperfection is the law in this world. Nothing is absolutely perfect but just —yourself. Souie people are such cowards they ven repent of sins that they never had the courage to commit. Hashfulness is really becoming to some peole, but mortification is always dangerous. A horseshoe is the emblem of good luck, but the qualifying adjective is totally changed if the horseshoe is pre sented at the end of a mule's hind leg. Whenever a man jnclmits liis faults and confesses to you their nature, you may be sure he lias exposed his itch on purpose to be scratched. Don't gratify him. —To Date. Read - the - Tribune.
