that both clubs played poorly, but the Shen-
andoah team put upa ridiculous game, Dur
ing the greater part of the contest the Maha-
noy City players had them at their mercy.
The Shenandoah team must do some won
derfu playing this afternoon to temper the
sentiment of the cranks in town and if this
mornings burlesque is repeated somebody
will suffer.
Most Of the cranks were censuring the
home management for only sending seven
players over this morning and depending
upon the mercy Of Mahanoy City. The two
borrowed players were Boyle and Heiser, but
the defeat cannot be laid at their door.
One or two of our townsmen spoke unfeel-
ingly of the umpire upon their return here
but he, too, must be exculpated from all blame
in the face of the summary published below.

Joined the team this week, certainly made an
inglorious debut. He only accepted three out
Of eight chances.
The truth is there appears to be something
wrong with the home team. 1t has not
played a game for a week. yet it goes upon
the diamond and put up game that any
Juvenile team in the town could beat. A
short time ago some Of the players complained
that their bad playing was due a lack of
practice, they wanted more games, that may
be the rock upon which they split this morn
ing but at all events the cranks have long
black mark against them.

of the halcyon days when we walloped the

CLEARING THE DECKS FOR ACTION.
Early next week Field Marshal Whitehouse
will open Republican headquarters in the
Seitz building, IA South Centre street. the
same as those occupied by Chairman NIarr for
Democratic headquarters last year, and noted
for the many victories which resulted from
campaigns conducted therein. With his Sec.
retaries, Losch and Duffy, and corps Of
clerks. Mr.. Wbitehouse will organize an ag
gressivo campaign and it win keep the oppo-
nents of his ticket busy to keep up with his
rapid gait 1t will be a clean campaign and
the dealers in mud who have large stocks to
dispose of will be notified that they cannot
find market for their material in the seitz
building, as none will be thrown from Re-
publican guns this year. If there is any
merit in complete organization and harmony
the Republican chairman proposes to get all
the benefit he can out of those elements. The
claims of his various candidates for election
will be urged to the best advantage and here
and there, especially in the matter of the Com
trollership, where it appears the election of
the Republican candidate for a particular
office would be best for the community at
large, it will be shown that the election of the
Democratic candidate would result in public
calamity. Mr. Whitehouse can be trusted to
make as effective contest as his resources
will permit of, and when the battle is over
and the smoke rises from the field it will re-
quire more than one basket to carry the
lRurels won.

to guarantee the repayment Of the money

The sum thus raised will enable the
