PERSONAL CHIT.CHAT.

Eve don't even make a respectable
showing against them,' was d. j.
Campbelrs comment after leaving the
ball park Saturday, where he wit
messed the Scranton-WilkesB Barre
game. Those Wilkes-Barre players
he continued, ARE in the game from
beginning to end. They fight for vic
tory all the time and. that's what
brings success in base ball as in every
thing else
Bernard Magargee appeared on the
streets Saturday with big white and
green sun shade, which he held aloft to
protect himself from the fierce rays of
Old Sol. That's the proper thing for
this weather" said Mr. Magargee, re-
ferring to the umbrella. 1T allows
you to remain in the shade all the time,
and the heat does not seem near so
oppressive. I'm sorry l didn't adopt
the sun shade years ago"
I've gone over to the boys again."
declared p. w. Gallagher, of the Trac-
ton company, yesterday as he brought
to bear on a coterie of his friends that
genial smile that has made him ia
nous. He had reference to the fact
that the handsome mustache that was
wont to ornament his face had disap-
peared. leaving nothing to hinder the
play of that smile. Although he tips
the scale at 23O pounds Mr.. Gallagher
was not complaining of the heat; he
never does. When Mr.. Gallagher was
mere STRIPPING of boy he cultivated
full beard; as time rolled by ne re-
duced the hirsute growth to a mus
tache. and now the latter has disap-
peared, bringing the former owner
back to the boys, as he says himself.
THAT was an uncalled for attack
the Sunday News made on Lieu
tenant John Davis today" said
well-known man about town to a Trib-
une reporter yesterday. "The lieuten-
ant simply did his duty as required by
the police regulations, and for that was
attacked. If fault is to be found It
should be laid against the regulations,
and not against those who are sworn
to enforce them. II Is that character
Of unwise remarks which ruin disci-
pline and cause those who know not
authority"
Brother Sturges, who owns the Su-
burban Electric Light company, will
not allow US to have electric lights in
the park Sunday nights, so we have to
make use Of these" said Manager ]. II.
Laine. Of Laurel Hill park, last night,
pointing to the headlights with which
the park was studded. but we're
open just the same you see and we
have light. It's not quite so brilliant
as the electric, but it answers the pur-
pose. AS for me, can't see where the
harm of having the park Illuminated
on Sunday night comes in. Perhans
Brother Sturges has a more keen sense
OF the eternal fitness Of things than I
have"
Deputy Prothonotary Myron Kasson
was one of the sweltering Scrantonians
who fled the city Saturday to escape
the heat. He started for Susquehanna
county. accompanied by the kind OF
hat affected by the late Carter Harri
son, an overcoat and an umbrella. "Pm
prepared for change of the weather"
SAID Mr.. Kasson, as he shifted his
overcoat to his left arm and mopped
away the sweat that was falling from
the ends Of his Bismarks.
NO use Of talking. there's no place
like the boundless west" emphatically
declared Barrister w. w. Baylor Satur
day as he entertained his friends with
an eloquent description Of his journey
across the continent to the Pacific
slope, and then up to Seattle. Mr.. Bay
lor returned Thursday from his west
ern trip. which was of business na
ture In the interests Of one of his
clients.
