Alley Ball at Mountain Park.

The alley ball match at Mountain
Park Monday morning for the double
championship of Luzerne and Lack.
awanna Counties and purse of $500
was an interesting and exciting contest
and resulted in victory for the Luzerne
champions. The Luzerne players were
Thomas Dullard and John Callaghan Of
Wilkes-Barre, while the Lackawanna
representatives were John Rickerby and
Hugh Kelly of Old Forge.
The game was opened very shortly
after IL o'clock. The Lackawanna mer
won the toss and took first innings
They scored three. The Luzerne boy.
showed superior play from the star
making four. They played strong anC
brilliant game and for the first half o.
the game drew steadily ahead. On the
fifteenth innings the score stood 10 to .
in favor of Luzerne. Interest ran higl
and the Luzerne men were full of enthu
siasm and bet all they could get on thei1
men.
But with the opening of the seconC
half the score began to change. The
Lackawanna boys got into better form
and played well together and in splendid
style. They steadily closed up the gar
and when at the close of the 25th innings
the score stood "a to 23 in favor of Lack
awanna, the spectators grew wild witt
excitement and betting ran high. But
the Luzerne boys pulled themselves
together and fought manfully, playing
with marked skilled and steadiness. Al
the Goth innings they were one ahead
and when the game closed on the 31st
inning the score stood Al to "a in favor
of Dullard and Callaghan.
Just after the close of the game a
dispute arose between Patrick Cannon
the well-known sprinter, and some men
from the West Side, who were witness
ing the game. The West Side men
claimed that Cannon had wagered some
of the stake money, which, they said, he
had no right to. The quarrel ended in a
fight in which Cannon was badly hurt.
He was knocked down and kicked. One
kick inflicted by man named O'Brien
from Luzerne Borough struck him on
the eye, cutting terrible cash and
drawing the eye partly out of the socket
Cannon was taken to Wilkes-Barre,
where DIR. O'Malley replaced the eye
and sewed up the wound. Last evening
Cannon was totally unable to see with
either eye, and it is greatly feared by
the doctor that he will become perma-
nently blind in the injured eye, though
the other will be all right in short time.

Political Freedom for workingmen.

Under the head of political Free
DOM Mr.. T. Hayes of Dickson City,
Lackawanna County, has an able, we'll
written and lengthy article in the last
issue of the Journal Of United Labor.
Mr.. Hayes was formerly a resident of
Drifton, where he was discharged, along
with six other miners, fourteen months
ago, for daring to assert his manhood
and ask for the enforcement of the mine
ventilation law. He is an intrepid
writer upon economic and labor subjects
and can always be found in the fore of
any movement that will assist the work
ing classes. Under the nom de plume of
"Spread the Light" Mr.. Hayes was a
frequent contributor to the columns of
the TRIBUNE before his removal.

Base Ball Player Killed.

James McCarrick, young man resid-
ing at Newtown, met with a horrible
death on the Central Railroad Saturday
night. About 10 o'clock in the evening
he was in a saloon at Ashley, and while
there fight arose in which he took
part. He was worsted and was thrown
out on the street. He wandered on the
railroad track, and, probably becoming
exhausted, laid down to sleep. About
midnight an empty engine came along
and ran over him. The engineer noticed
that the trucks of the tender were drag
ging and he stopped the locomotive to
investigate. McCarrick's mangled re-
mains were found tied up in the wheels.
Both legs were cut off. The unfortunate
man lived about an hour after the acc-
dent. He was single man and had
gained quite reputation as ball player,
being a member of the Sugar Notch club.
He played with that club at the Freeland
park on July Z, and his work as catcher
did much to win the game.

Working the "Duplicate" Trick.

The board of mine examiners of the
Pittston district has discovered a new
scheme on the part of foreign laborers
to evade the laws regarding certificates.
One of the new men who has secured a
certificate emitting him to work hands
his paper over to a fellow countryman,
who has been less fortunate. The latter
secures employment on the strength of
his companion's certificate, while the
other appears before the board, and
upon the plea that his certificate has
been lost or stolen, secures a duplicate.
Such a case came before the board last
week, the applicant being an employe at
the Keystone colliery. The man was
refused duplicate certificate, the board
having. good grounds to believe that the
method above described had been used
to deceive the examiners.
The 80 days limit allowed to operators
by the law expires on the 10Th of this
,conth. After that date every man en-
p,oyeJ as miner will be required to
havy certificate of competency, or the
company employing him is liable to a
fine of 500.

over his right leg and took it off. An
attempt was made to remove him to the
