Springfield ut wilkcs.Barrc

Wilkes-Barre, Pa, Sept. 13.-Wllkes-
Barre today made 1t sure thing to
finish in third place in the Eastern
league by defeating the Springfield
Ponies-the coming champions. Lit
tie Jack Keenan, was in the box against
Springfield and won his game against
Gruber. This makes Keenan's record
of pitching in the Eastern league
championship games this season thirty
victories out of the forty games he has
pitched. Wilkes-Barre's hitting was
most timely and her errors were less
expensive than those of the visitors.
The feature of the game was the great
work of Bonner at second base, and
McDonald's clean fielding for the visit
ors, along with GrifIith's home run.

Stroudsburg, Pa. Sept. 13 (210 p. m.)
This city was reached by the riders
at l.55 p. m. The pull up the noun
tain from Elmhurst to Tobyhanna had
its effect on Searle, who was pretty
well exhausted. but after light lunch
and rundown he pluckily mounted
his wheel and made the last fifteen
miles toward. this city in ffty-eight
minutes.
a crowd Of 1000 persons greeted the
riders here, where Searle found the
New York pacemakers awaiting him.
a stop of an hour and a quarter was
made for rest and dinner After an
other rundown and a cup of tea he
felt refreshed and rode out of the city
at lively clip behind the New York
wheelmen. Winans. Leonard and Hen
derson continued with the party.
Before leaving. Sesrle announced
that he would be in New York by mid
night. This will make his time Z

hours. last year a lowering of the rec
ora l6h hours. although he will be
7h hours behind his schedule.

AFTER THE RECORD.
Scnric and DuXbury. the Overland Bicy
cists. Passed Through scranton Pacct
TO Stroudsburg by Four OF Scranton.
Fast Riders

Scarle. the bicyclist who is on a rec
rd-breaklng ride for the Western
Wheel works from Chicago to New
York, reached Scranton at Z O'Clock
yesterday morning accompanied by
uXbury. of Providence. who Is riding
against the record of iifty-nine days
and eleven hours from san Francisco
to New York; \. L. Peck, of the Lincoln
Cycling club, of Chicago, who has made
portions of the trip by train; Mr. Ry-
der. of the Binghamton Republican,
and Mr.. Rogers, of the 'Hallstead 8icy-
Gle club. Searle was fifteen hours
ahead of his last years time.
The party breakfasted Mt Lohman's 5
restaurant and at $50 O'Clock started
for Stroudsburg, accompanied by Leon
ard. Henderson, Winans and Gardner,
the four pacemakers and guides fur
niShed by the/ Scranton Bicycle club,
and by \. w. Jurisch. 1t is probable
that Leonard at least will continue with
the main riders to New York. which, if
reached at els o'clock tonight, will
equal Scarle's last years record of six
and one-half days. 1t is possible. how
ever, that the journey will be finished
by dayhreak. He left Chicago at 4.30
O'Clock Sunday morning.
Searle is a tall, slender chap and
opposite. They We're fatigued, tanned
and travel-stained and plainly showed
the effects of their ride. but their con-
dition was found to be better than was
expected. They Were conducted out of
the city at a 10-mile gait and went
over the new boulevard to Elmhurst
at Emile clip. The pace was set
slow owing to the heavy riding and up
grade this side of Tobyhanna near the
top of the Pocono mountain. From
Tobyhanna to Stroudsburg it was in
tended to slide along at a speed vary
ing from fourteen to eighteen miles
per hour.
Leonard, Henderson, Gardner and
Winans, the Scranton riders, are fam
iliar with every crook and turn of the
mountain road. They are fast. strong
and plucky wheelmen and with their
ability and nowledge of the route
should carry the two record breakers
along at a lively pace. One of the
PAGERS kept lead of twenty-five or
thirty rods. This was done as a pre-.
caution against ruts. sand and stones
or other conditions that might cause
a nasty tumble. The other two PAGERS
kept Searle ard Duxbury up to a GER
tain speed that will bring them fame
and fortune before today has ended.

a fall of rock while at work yesterday

elbow. The limbs were crushed into n
pulp, but despite the injuries the hos

that Harmon will live. He is married

Wish 10 Change Water.

A petition is being circulated among
the residents of Bellevue Heights to re-
quest the Scranton Gas and Water
company to lay pipe in that locality.
They claim the water now furnished
by the Taylor Water company is not
up to the standard, and the residents
are complaining. They have rebelled
and will make an endeavor to obtain
the faultless liquid furnished by the
Scranton company. The Taylor water
stops its flow to Bellevue homes at GER
tain regular periods of the day, and
much annoyance has been caused be-
cause of this. The Scranton company
has laid its pipes as far as Locust
street and only little extension is re-
quired to enter the principal Bellevue

HE LOVED TO STEAL

New Jersey village. Looking out over the

stopped to take fresh hold lower down
