Errors for the Association.

Scranton played great fielding
game One of Sleepy" Johnson's err
rors was q muffed fly ball and which
helped along a run in the first inning;
his other error ought to be charged to
the management, for as big as q noun
tain he cannot be expected to stop
bounders on q field like nutmeg gratet
on q large scale.
The dehorned Bisons were never In
the game. Until the fifth inning they
had secured only four scattered hits
for five bases off Meaney, and when in
the seventh big Sam Wise famed out
the second time, Buffalo must have
realized that the Jig was UP.
A base on balls. Johnson's muff and

principle reason for winning. there was
another potent factor in the game. His
name is Meaney. one OF the Harrisburg

any great potatoes. but he can pitch
several different entries Of good base

display his prowess in the field. Hus-

stops Of sizzling grounders. which
might have developed into two-base
hits. In each case the batters reached
first. and Illusions good work does not
appear in the detailed score.
Bannon, the New Yorker, showed his
PAGES In right field and made one of the
two grand stand plays of the game. In
the seventh inning, with one out and
Field ON second. ShearOn pushed a long
drive out toward Hyde Park that
seemed good for three bases. Bannon
ran away from the ball and toward

ming Of the third inning. Apparently
he is one Of the swiftest runners Oh the

CHANGED DAILY FOR wEINsTocK, LUBIN & CO.

The writer has been looking
over again the Mems Shoes OF
tered at special sale, which began
yesterday morning aud finds that
while the prices are only ST. 81 10
and 81 49, that there are hundreds
OF pairs of shoes worth s. to S.
or more and in point of quality
and style as durable as any shoes
in regular stock. 1t is not prob
able that all these shoes will be
sold at once, simply because men
who wear the better grade OF
shoes will not believe that they
can get anything for themselves
at what may appear as almost
ridiculous prices. 1t must not be
forgotten that scarcely a month
ago these shoes were being Of
fered for sale to the San Fran
cisco public. at a shoe store on
Market street, and some of them
still bear the old retail prices
alongside of the new sale prices.
We cite this fact to show that the
styles and feathers are good, and
that it is the prices only that are
askew.
The shoes are assorted by sizes
into separate baskets. 1t thus
takes only a moment for the pur-
chaser to see what there is OF III
tereSt to him.
Hadn't you better stop and look
to-day even if you have never
worn a pair of 81 10 or 81 4S
shoes before ? Following are a
few details:

Those Bracket street Lights.

Eds. Record Union: In this morn
ing's issue of your paper you comment
editorially upon the matter of lighting
the streets of this city with electric
lamps suspended from brackets extend
ing diagonally across the intersections,
etc. wherein you treat the introduce
ton Of the bracket as an innovation,
and make the following statement:
The change is going to benefit tEe
electric lighting company; of that there
can be no doubt. 1t is going to make
its task lighter. But it bid for the
lighting job without any interposed
condition as to the bracket system"
in this you are in error. You will find
upon examination that the specifica-
items prepared by the Board of Trus-
tees, and upon which all the bidders
submitted their propositions, the use
Of brackets was not only authorized,
hut brackets extending but eighteen
feet from the pole were authorized.
The bid Of the Sacramento Electric
Power and Light Company, which was
SO low as to enable the city to increase
its lighting more than 30 per cent. 1or
the same sum paid in former years,
was SenSibly influenced by that par
ticular specification, and your criticism
does the power company an injustice
You also stated that lights suspended
from the center OF the intersections VIII
be more efficient on streets that are
Shaded than if placed at one side of the
center. Experience here and else
where has demonstrated that state
ment to be an error. 1t is apparent to
any observer that If lights ere sus-
pended precisely in the middle of the
intersections of streets bordeEed by
heavy growths of trees, the sidewalks
on each side will be dark; while on he
other hand, if lights are suspeded rea-
sonably nearer one side than the other
the sidewalk on the opposite side of the
street will be illuminated; and by alter
hating at different intersections where
lamps are suspended, light will be
thrown upon both sidewalks and better
results be attained than where the
lights are put in the center of the in
tersections.
Hence, the city is not only getting
precisely what it asked for, and what
was bid for by both companies. but il
Is getting it in the very best shape pos
sible.
trusting you will give the correction

WANTS DAMAGES,

Without His Consent.

WarhaftIg Says the Fitness w as Sold
Without His Consent.
NJ. s. Warhaftig has, by his attorney.
r. Plstnauer, brought suit against j.
Heintz, L. n. marlborough and L.
to have been suffered by him through the
acts of the defendants, growing out OF
business complications concerning the
late Evening Times newspaper.
According to the complaint Warhaftig,
A. b. Sanborn and J. ii. Cooley were en-
gagged in publishing the Times In Novem-
Der, 1894, and were attached by Joseph
Byrne, who claimed they owed him Szll.
Being DESTROYS OF defending themselves
against the action, the plalntIH prevailed
on Lands borough and Heintz to become
his sureties on the bond necessary to re-
lease the attachment. They consented 10
do SO, provided the Times Publishing
Company would assign TO them the goou
will and property thereof.
The plainllff states that at the same
time the company was Indebted to Meyer
in the sum OF 500, and that he TOO got out
an attachment on the property. The writ
was not levied, however, but II was
agreed between the company and Lands
borough and HeintZ that Meyer should.
as security for the payment OF his claim,
Jointly 10 share with them the assignment
referred.
The plaintiff, and bis partners, Sanborn
and Cooley, made an absolute assignment
and transfer of their newspaper property
TO Lands borough. Heintz and Meyer, in
accordance with the agreement, but
plaintiff Warhattig claims that it was
fully understood by all the parties con-
cerned that Landsborough, Eeintz aud
Meyer, though holding legal title TO said
property, had no actual interest therein.
They,did. however, under the legal title
given them, sell the property TO W. Il.
Barnes, by which act plaintiff Warhaftig
claims he was damaged to the extent OF
five thousand dollars, and he asks judg-
| ment in that sum. AS SanDOrn and
Cooley would not consent to join him n
bringing the action he has made them de-
PENDANTS in the case.

Ex-Convict II. Weber Does Up a Few
Confiding Friends.

Conf1ding Friends.
A confidence operator named H.
Weber, who has been cutting quite a
wide swath here the last few days, sud-
denly disappeared on Thursday, going in
the direction of Folsom in company with
q friend.
The latter, it is said, dropped him east
of the city and while one OF his victims
and an officer were hunting up toward
Folsom he slipped back into town and
escaped.
Weber's method was 10 make the ac-
quaintance OF persons, get on friendly
terms with them and then work off
bogus checks in exchange for good
money. In this way he is said to have
got S44 from The proprietor of the Crystal
Palace saloon and smaller sums from
DIR. l. G.. Shaw, Carl New bert and other
contlding persons.
Weber is an ex-convict. He is a very
smoot,4 salker and has q way of getting
into the confidence OF his associates and
then viciimiZina them that will be apt to
soon again land him in the penitentlary.

S. ]. Jackson, the well-known stove
dealer. had a ride yesterday afternoon
about O'Clock that he will not care to re-
peat as long as he lives.
For some reason his horse became
frightened at Eighth and X streets and
started down Eighth on lively run. Mr..
Jackson was thrown from his seat partly
upon the cross-piece of the shafts where
he hung head dOwnwards, his feet in the
wagon and one hand grasping the shaft,
while the other grasped the footboard.
Owing to his position he could not eXtri-
cate himself or cry out for help. and al
though several persons tried to stop the
horse, he ran down to Eighth and .
streets, where he was caught, and Mr..
Jackson relieved from his periious posi-
ton.

scious when picked up. He was taken
to a surgeons office near by for treat
ment. The wagon was considerably
smashed and the horse bruised, but the
car came out all right.
The motorman declares he rang his
bell. but the wind was bowling and
whistling, and Golnioh probably did not
hear it.

Quet Last Evening.
Califa Parlor, No. q, Native Daugh-
ters of the Golden West, held its eighth
anniversary banquet last night at Pioneer
Hall, and most thoroughly enjoyable
affair it was, too.
A large number of Native Sons. as well
as Daughters. were present and partook
of the hilarity attendant on the OCCASION.
It has passed into proverb that what
ever Caliha Parlor does. it does we'll, ana
last evening maintained the record. Inc
first part of the programme was nu-
steal and literary entertainment, which
was excellent. The "Village Choir" was
perfectly unrecognizable in the lowell
ness of it's members and elected great
applause. and the shadow pantomime
was not one whit behind it in it's comic
element, 'Doc' Tebbets, as the bashful
farmer swain, covering himself with
glory.
The entertainment over, the company
proceeded to the banquet hall. which had
been handsomely decorated by the
Daughters, and the following menu will
speak for itself as to the excellence of the
table spread for the delectation of their
guests:
