In spite of the miserable showing the home
team made in the game against the Removes,
many predict that the game at the Trotting
park on Friday between the Pottsville and
Shenandoah clubs will be the game of the
season.
A Poiisyile man said yesterday that the
Shenandoahs won't see the ball after the fifth
inning ON Friday, TIE Pottsvilles may run
against q surprise.
The home team played practice game at
the Trotting park this afternoon, The man
agement has read the riot act and told the
players that Fridays game will mean victory
or ruin.
The home management has not acted upOn
the insinuations made by the Lansford peo-
pie. 1t is said Fulmer is so well liked here
the Shenandoah people do not wish their team
to beat his first love-
Frank Henry con plains that he has a sore
knee.
Setley is red hot over base ball now and
says he will play in dead earnest in every
game, When asked where he is stopping now
he answers with CHEEKY air, "Down in
Girardville with the folks" He likes married
life and will stay either in Girardville or
Shenandoah all winter.
Many people aIe complaining Of the rowdy
element that spreads itself among the specta.
tors on the grand stand and thinks it makes
the games more interesting by crying fight
fight W without cause, and otherwise behav-
ing in hoodlum msnner. The management
should detail a special officer to all who COM
pose this element and take other steps to
have the patrons of the park who wish to
do so enjoy the game.
Toman is still in town and will in ali
probability be retained on the home team
for the balance of the season.

Rynkawicz, the saloon keeper, charging him
with selling liquor on Sunday. When the
case was before Justice Bailey, Rynkawicz
appeared with his sttorney,M. NJ. Burke, Esq.
waived a hearing and entered bail for trial.
1t was thought Stoif would be content to
wait until court would convene and hold in
check his spirit of revenge for some wrong he
feels he has sustained, but instead of doing so
he caused warrant to be issued for Walter
Rynkawicz Felix's son, who is a Justice of
the Peace in the Foprth ward.
In the latter Stoff charged Justice Rynka-
wicz with false arrest and Imprisonment and
the hearing was fixed for last evening before
Justice Bailey. stoh was represented by
Lawyer Haughawout, and Lawyer Burke ap.
peared for the accused Justice, who decided
after consultation to waive hearing and
entered bail for trial at court.
Rynkawiczs say that both charges are with
out foundation and that they are simply
| trumped up by Stoff for vengeance for wrong
which the latter imagiDes has been done to
him by the father and son. Their attorneys
say the trial of the cases will be interesting.
Felix Rynkawicz is looked upon as one of
the most prosperous Polish residents of the
town. He recently purchased the Evans
property a. the corner Of Centre and White
streets for $4,000, and owns saloon and a
butcher shop. The son, Walter, is the first
and only Polish Justice of the Peace elected
in town. He has held the office for two years
