ON THE DIAMOND.

The averages of the National league
players up to yesterday, show Jennings
to stand first among the shortstops with
an average of 976. In batting he is
ninth with an average Of 421.
Ford, of Shenandoah, was unfortunate
in yesterdays game, being hit severely
on the head twice by pitched balls. He
refused to leave the game however, and
played it out well.
The Tigers never before received such
a ''roasting" from an umpire as their
own manager gave them yesterday. 1t
was no wonder Pfrom threw the game
away in disgust.
McGarvey's work yesterday was the
best he has done in a single game this
season. He was loudly cheered when
he stepped up to the plate for the first
time.
Shenandoah's record up to date, in
the league and out, is nine games lost,
one won, and one donated.
The Tigers have three games lost and
one won, Percentage $50.
The rooters had great time yester-
day. Fortunately after seven innings
were played it was supper time and they
had reasonable excuse for going home.
Patrons of State league games intimate
that the scores given out are not so
I accurate as they might be- Partially
is said to be shown to certain players in
the error and batting columns.
Carey has taken McGarvey's place on
third for Shenandoah, and Mac is now
in left field, The change is beneficial
to the team, and McGarvey is putting
up fine game in his new position.

TIGERS LOSE ANOTHER.
ENANDOAH PRESENTED WITH A
GAME YESTERDAY.

Pfrom, the Tigers Pitcher, Threw Excel
lently Until the Eighth Inning, Then
He and the Umpire Turned In and Did
Brilliant Work for the Visitors.
The uncertainties of base ball were
never more dismally demonstrated than
in the game played yesterday afternoon
by the Tigers against the Shenandoah
State league club. After having the
game practically won by superior all
round work, it was actually thrown
away by Pfrom's careless pitching in
the eighth inning. Previous to this in
ming the young twirler of Hazleton put
up remarkable game, striking out
three men in the first inning, two in the
second, two in the third and one in the
fourth, making total of eight to his
credit in four innings. After this he
weakened perceptibly, but succeeded in
keeping the hits pretty well scattered,
so as to be the least effective.
In the eighth inning his Judgment of
the location of the home base failed him
somewhat, and he threw the ball with
a carelessness and indifference that was
surprising. Occasionally he managed
to get it to cut the plate, but the UNI
pire was so used to calling balls that he
failed to see anything else, and these
unjust decisions added to thee pitchers
recklessness. The league men succeed
ed in filling the bases at the start, by
hit, base on balls and scratch, after
one man had struck out, and kept them
filled steadily until the side was retired.
Eight batters were given their bases on
balls in succession, six of which forced
in runs.
| 1t was the most awful exhibition of
pitching and umpiring ever given in the
park, and coming after seven innings of
sharp fielding and good hitting by the
home club, during which time the root
ers manifested their enthusiasm and ad-
miration by loud and long applause, it
thoroughly disheartened the entire au-
dience.
After fourteen runs had been scored
and two men out Brislin went in the box
He threw straight ball to the first
batter up, who knocked fly to centre,
where it was caught, thus retiring the
side and ending the dreariest inning the
Tigers experienced in many day.
The attendance was rather small on
account of the lateness of the visitors
arriving and the coldness of the
weather.

Carried a Naked Mine Lamp.

An accident occurred at the Maltby
mine, Wilkesbarre, which resulted in
the death of one man and the fatal in
juring of two others. John Steve, a
miner, had been wandering about with
naked lamp, when he came to a work
ing over which board with the word
danger" had been nailed. Not heed
ing the warning he went in and ignited
the gas. He was blown several feet
away into a ditch of water. His labor
er, John Babuskak, received the force
of the explosion full in the face, burning
him so badly about the body that he
died. Steve Kodak, another laborer,
and Louis Undermark were badly

ASSEMBLY Bill No. 105, intro
duced this week provides for re-
ducing the salaries of the officials
of Lyon county. The change, it is
understood, will not take place I'M
til 1897. To be frank, we do not
believe that any reduction should
be made. The officers of this
county are working on as small
salaries as the work will Justify,
and to further reduce the pay
would only be to put premium
on incompetency. The County
Commissioners of this county are
miserably paid now, and their sala-
ries should be raised, and the 9th
ers let alone. 1t is not supposed
that a man who is capable and
qualified to fill official positions
will take such positions at the pay
a man receives for saving wood or
shoveling hay, or anything like it.
And it makes no difference what
capacity a man is employed in, the
better the pay the better will be
the service rendered.

IT seems that whenever some
government wants something said
to another government that it does
not care to say itself it calls on the
United States to say it, and if Sec
rotary Gresham has declined a
single request of that sort the fact
has been successfully kept from the
public and buried in the archives
of the department of State. So far
nothing serious has come of Secre-
tary Gresham's latest attempt to do
the parrot act, but the incident is
not yet closed. 1t was the insig-
nifcant government of San Do
mingo that made use of the ever
plant Gresham this time. 1t seems
that in order to force settlement
of a long score against San Do
mingo, France sent three war ships
to the harbors of the little black
republic. Now this was none of
our business, yet Gresham, when
requested by the government of
San Domingo, told France that no
hostile demonstration must be
made. The French government
took this interference much more
good-naturedly than Japan did a
similar one, and even went so far
as to explain just what it was try
ing to accomplish. But those war
ships were not withdrawn. Gresh-
am then sent another communica-
ton to the French government in
timating that those war ships would
better be withdrawn. There the
matter stands at present.

PRESS ASSOCIATION.

We notice by several of our ex-
changes that the question of organ
izing a Press Association in this
State is again being talked Of.
Nevada once had Press Associat-
ion, but it existed only for short
length OF time, being run into the
grou nd by hog or two belonging
to it. However an Association of
this kind (of the press, not of hogs)
is what is very much needed. The
newspaper business has been cut up
and slashed to pieces by the ribald
politicians and cutthroat advertis
ing agents until there is not paper
in the State that is making any,
where what it should for the services
rendered. The newspapers, if given
a chance will do more to pull the
State along than any other class;
but whenever little corn is tread
upon the party agrieved win i'm
mediately send to some other es-
adjustment for his work, out of the
State the chances are, and legisla-
tors of a certain stripe think the
press legitimate target at which
to shoot their wads of economy, re-
trenchment, etc. Newspapers need
legislation as well as any other in
terest in the State, and they deserve
to have it. An Association would
bring newspaper men together so
that by concerted action some good
could be accomplished.
