SATURDAYS GREAT GAME.
Princeton and Cornell Teams VIII oppose
Each Other,

The game between Princeton and
Cornell on Saturday afternoon Is looked
upon with great interest. and is ex-
pected to be close and exciting. The
people of Scranton will be afforded
their first opportunity of seeing two OF
the leading college teams. The game
will be particularly interesting to
Scranton people in view of the fact
that three men who will play on the
Princeton team are residents OF this
city and well known in base ball circles,
viz: Brooks, Williams and Gunster.
Galfney, of the Eastern league, will
umpire.
Brooks, '9j, who Is captain, has
played on the team for four years at

class who has played on the varsity
for four consecutive years.

three years, covers first base, and is a
beautiful fielder and excellent thrower.
Payne, 50, plays left field and Is recog-
med as the leading college batsman.
Trenchard, '95, made his fame as an
athlete on the foot ball field, and for
two years past has been captain of the
Princeton eleven. He plays In the field
and is an excellent backstop. Ward,
'95, who played quarterback on the "a
foot ball team, plays in the outfield and
second base, is n strong batter and
sure fielder. Gunster '96, of Scranton,
has played on the varsity since enter
ing college. covering third base, and is
considered the best third baseman of
any of the colleges.
Williams, '97, of Scranton, has been
regular catcher on the varsity since he
entered Princeton. He is a beautiful
catcher and throws well. He, with
Brooks and Gunster, was on the Young
Mems Christian association team, and

college. Bradley, '97, is pitcher and
outielder and probably the best all
round player on the team. Altman, '97,

ter and base runner.

game with State college, won fame in
the tenth inning with the score tie by
making a home run.

WOES OF PLUM BERS.
Malicious Persons Cut Pipes in New
Huildirgs

When Plumber Thomas +. Mullen,
or 3l5 Spruce street, turned on the
water In the new residence of Architect
B. f. Lacey, in North Park yesterday,
water spurted like II fountain from
under the tiling OF the bath room floor.
An examination was made which
showed that some miscreant had
hacked holes in the heavy lead pipe
supplying the bath room with water.
The pipe looked as if an axe had been
used in rendering 1t useless. 1t was
laid about a month ago and as the
house was not altogether enclosed at
the time 1t is thought that some mali
cious person entered the building at
night, after the workmen left, and de-
stroyed the pipe.
During the last few months plumbers
have reported similar outrages in all
parts of the city, but the greatest mum
Der of complaints have come from the
Green Ridge portion of the city.
Mr.. Mullen will pay reward of 500
for information that will lead to the
arrest and conviction of the person who
mutilated the pipe in Mr.. Lacey's
house.

Mems Christian Association hall We'd
nesday evening, April "a, 1895, that

HAD AN UNBRIDLED TONGUE.
John Hanlou Swallowed the Words lie
Told Reporter Moscr

Ex-Patrolman John Coslett was
written up in the Scranton Times one
day last summer. and upon information
furnished to Wallace G.. Moser, mem
Der of the Times reportorial staff, by
an individual named John Hanlon, the
article was based.
Mr.. Coslett brought suit against Han
Ion, because the charge asserted that
he had been guilty of accepting bribes
and was prone to use his 'inflOoence"
as "one of the finest" in furthering his
own selfish ends.
The case was marked down for trial
yesterday, but before it arrived at that
stage Hanlon wrote out an abject
apology and declared himself a fol-
lower of Ananas. He paid the costs
and the suit against him was with
drawn.

MIR. Georges Red Hot Speech.

Augustus II. George of North Re
becca avenue. in a speech which con-
demned the wealthy Americans who
spent their money in foreign countries,
compared the grading of Jefferson ave-
nue. and Rebecca avenue, and said that
all contractors were dishonest men.
The appointment of inspectors of con-
tract work was, therefore, so much
money thrown away.
City Engineer Joseph Phillips depre-
Gated the action of court in appointing
viewers suggested by attorneys inter
ested in the case. AS an instance he
cited the grading of SHETLAND street,
where the viewers were Interested men,
and had granted from 5000 to $500 dam
ages, where very small amounts. If any
at all, were required The court should
not act upon the advice of interested
attorneys.
John Scheuer, of the South Side
board. said IL was difficult matter to
fn1 out how the ward appropria ions
were expended in many cases. He COM
mented upon the well-paved streets
upon SanGcrson hill and the central
wards, and urged that 1t was due to
the attention of the street commits
siuDer, who was charged with expend-
ing the appropriations in such cases.
County Surveyor Dunning gave an
interesting address, in which he gave
statistics showing that 1t would cost
So. .932 per mile to lay Telford maca-
dam road near the Diamond flats, but
in other parts good macadam road
could be made for as low as $1,000
mile.
klrst Wanted to Learn.
Street Commissioner Philip Kirst was
called upon to address the meeting. but
replied that he had accepted the invi-
tation to attend in order to receive les
sons in road-making. William Farrell,
OF the West Side, advocated the letting
out by contract of the repairs of
streets. After other remarks the fol-
lowing resolutions were adopted:
