Fully 5000 people gathered at the
Garrison Driving park Saturday after
noon to witness the much-tallied of
game of ball between the James Boys,
of Scranton and the famous Welsh Hill
club. After waiting several hours,
only to be disappointed by receiving a
telegram stating that the James Boys
could not come, slowly the vast multi
tude of people wended their way back
to the town, and many were the words
Of condemnation that were heard to es-
cape the lips OF lovers of base ball. 1t
is also one thing certain, that If the tri-
county leaguers continue in this man
ner much longer, their chances of draw
ing a crowd to their games will be slim.
