FOUR SCRANTON SINGLES.

Bonner's single, Diggin's bad throw
to catch him off first, Maguire's out
field fly and singles by Gunson, Meaney
and O'Brien earned two in the eighth
Two more were manufactured in the
ninth on Boyds walk, Bonner's single,
Maguire's outfield fly and Gunson's S
single,
Wilkes Barrels modest portion up to
the eighth had been only two hits, and
three bases on balls. The nearest they
came to tallying up to that time was
following Sharrott's three-baser with
one out in the third, when he was
forced at the plate.
In the eighth, with one out, Coalkley
hit one which struck Morse's up
stretched glove and shot high in the
air above his head. Morse couldn't To-
cate the ball until Coakley was safe
and had made an undeserved hit He
reached second on Bonner's unde-
served error in handling Morse's as
sist of what should have been a force
hit by Sharrot. Goeckeps single scored
Coakley and sent Sharrott TO second,
from where he scored on q single by
Belts. Odwells force hit and Mills
fly to Boyd ended the inning.
Powelrs single in the ninth was fol-
lowed by a double play on him and
Smith by Beard, Bonner and Boyd.
Diggins' hit to left-center for two bases
was unavailing for Coakley was an
easy strike-out.

This afternoon in Wilkes-Barre will be
played the last of the present series, of

each lose. 1t is an even chance on the
result of all three games.

Great WPopv Morse.

Come, boys; here we go into sec
ond place" said Manager Sandy.
The "boys" came. and into second
place they went. 1t was just as the
second game opened and 1853 pairs OF
eyes were watching to see what would
happen. They saw fifteen hits made
off Coakley in one hour and forty min
utes and saw Pop" Morse hold the
Barons down while his conferes did
the business.
For seven innings only two hits were
made off Morse, and then Umpire
Keefe went lame and rendered a bad
decision at second, which gave the
Barons their only two runs, and pre-
vented their being shut out, put an
error on Bonner in the midst of his
phenomenal fielding, and kept the Min
ers from having a clean error column.
1t was not holiday crowd, for Scran-
ton had it's Decoration and circus fling
on Saturday, but the fans couldn't let
pass unnoticed the Miners three wins
from Wilkes Barre out of four games
played, and they came out in goody
numbers for a wash day. Two hundred
of the unterrlfied came up from Wilkes
Barre, a flattering testimonial to their
base ball representatives who are
hopelessly in the seven-hole.
1t was a half patchwork team who
wore Scranton uniforms. Massey had
received a jostle at the plate in the
morning game. which so shook his big
frame that Boyd was assigned the in
itial bag. He covered it like a veteran.
Eagans shoulder had not sufficiently
recovered from the injury of Satur-
day and his bailiwick was looked after
by Meaney The new combination
worked well however

AND BONNER, TOO.

Bonner was as fleet and snappy in
his field work as a National star, and
accepted 13 out of IA chances. His
record would have been clean but for
Keefes decision that Coakley was safe
at second on a force hit Bonner had
dropped the ball on Morses assist, but
scrambled for it and lay on his stomach
with one hand on the sack, and the
other on the ball when Coakley reached
the base. Keefe couldn't see it that
way and so Bonner's performance was
spoiled, but through no fault of his
own. He hit at a 800 gait.
On Gunson. Beard and Bonner rest
ed Morses chief support and they did
their work we'll. A catch and a stop
by Powell and Mills second base play
ing were the features of Wilkes
Barre's fielding.
The Miners made two hits in the
first inning and one in the second,
but in each case after two were out,
and they did not develope any runs.
Four runs were made in the fourth on
Goeckel's muff of thrown ball, Boyd's
single, Bonners bunt, Maguire's force
hit, Smiths error and single by
Morse. Meaney wound up with single

not more than a base, but he made

What becomes Of the ship that sinks
In mid-ocean? II 1t Is Of wood, 1t takes
in the first place, considerable time for
1t to reach the bottom. In one hundred
or more fathoms of water a quarter Of
an hour will elapse before the ship
reaches the bottom. 1t sinks slowly,
and when the bottom is reached 1t falls
gently into the soft, oozy bed, with no
crash or breaking. OF course, If 1t Is
laden with pig iron or corresponding
substances, or If it is an from ship, it
sinks rapidly, and sometimes strikes
the bottom with such force as to
smash to pieces. Once sunken, the
ship becomes the prey of the countless
inhabitants of the ocean. They swarm
over and through the great boat, and
make 1t their home. Besides this, they
cover every inch of the boat with a
thick layer of lime. This takes time,
Of course, and when one generation
dies another continues the work, until
finally the ship Is so laden with heavy
incrustations, corals, sponges and bar
nacles that, If wood, the creaking tim
bers fall apart, and slowly but surely
are absorbed in the waste at the sea
bottom. Iron vessels are demolished
more quickly than those of wood,
which may last for centuries. The only
metals that withstand the chemical
action of the waves are gold and plat
mum, and glass also seems unaffected.
No matter how long gold may be hid
den in the ocean, 1t will always be gold
when recovered, and this fact ex-
plains the many romantic and adven-
turous searches after hidden subma-
rine treasures lost in shipwrecks.

An Editor Gays That II Takes Money
to Run Newspaper.
From the Covlngton Ohio Gazette;
1T takes money to run a newspaper"
---St. John Kan) News.
What an aggregation; what q whop-
per. It has been dlsproved a thou
sand times; It Ia clean case Of airy
fancy II doesn't take money to run
newspaper; It can run without mon
ey. 1t Is charitable institution, q
begging concern, a highway robber.
BGodfrey the newspaper is the child
OF the air, a creature Of a dream. It
can go on and on and on, when any
other concern would be in the hands
OF a receiver and wound up with cob
webs In the window. 1t takes wind to
run newspaper; 1t takes gall to run
a newspaper. 1t takes q scintillating,
acTobatic imagination, and a half dog
en- white shirts, and a railroad pass to
run newspaper. But money-Heav-
ems to Betsy and six hands round, who
ever needed money In conducting a
newspaper! Kind words are the med
ium OF exchange that do the business
for the editor-klnd words and church
social tickets. When you see an ed.
ttor with money, watch him. He'll
be paying bills and disgracing his pro-
fession. Never give money to an edl.
tdr. Make him trade 1t out. He likes
TO swap. Then when you die, after
having stood around for years and
sneered at the editor and his little Jim
crow paper, be sure and have your wife
send In for three extra copies by one
OF your weeping children, and when
she reads the generous and touching
notice about you, forewarn her to ne.
glect to send fifteen cents to the editor
II would Overwhelm, him. Money is q
corrupting thing. The editor knows II
and what he wants is your heartfelt
thanks. Then he can thank the print
ers and they can thank their grocers
Take your job work to the job office
and then come and ask for half rates
for church notices. Get your lodge
letter heads and stationery printed
out OF town, and then food the editoS
with beautiful thoughts In resolutions
OF respect and cards of thanks. They
make such spicy reading, and when
you pick 1t up filled with those glow
ing and vivid mortuary articles, you
are so proud Of your little paper! But
money-scorn the filthy thing. Don't
let the pure, innocent editor know
anything about 1t. Keep that for
sordid tradespeople who charge foV
their wares. The editor gives his bount1
away. The Lord loves cheerful giver.
He'll take care OF all the editors. Don't
worry about the editor. He has a
charter from the state to act as door
mat for the community. He'll get
the paper out somehow; and stand up
for you when you run for Office, and lie
about your pigeon-toed daughters
tackey wedding, and blow about your
big-footed sons when they get a "a per
week job, and weep over your shriveled
soul when 1t is released from your
grasping body, and smile at your giddy
wife's second marriage He'll get along.
The Lord alone knows how-but the
editor will get there somehow.

Notes of the vogue.

Already several of the shops are dis
playing diaphanous fabrics for next
summer that makes one SILVER to con-
template these days.
There are as many Persian lamb
coats worn as sealskin ones, and these,
too, by women who could afford the
higher-priced skin if they wanted it;
so it must be Persian lamb is better
liked.
The style of walking boots now
in vogue for women allows more COM
fort and freedom than the erstwhile
popular high-heeled French affair, and
therefore conduces to more graceful
walking.
Little girls Of today look like the
story-book spinsters of forty or fifty
years ago. 1t seems to be the accept
ed mode for their hair to be parted in
the middle with one curl tied with a
bow on each side of the face, bosSine
outside the cap.
Our stock Of animals will be extinct
shortly, considering the number OF
heads and tails fashion demands these
days. One girl seen had at least twelve
tails, about six inches long, hanging
from her animalette, from her neck to
her waist.
An awfully pretty bodice was made
with fulled yoke, deep corselet, bust
high of velvet and on the left side, Just
under the bust, was a bow Of velvet
ribbon one and a half inches wide,
with steel buckle over the knot aud
the two enaB hanging to the knIes.
