MINERS IMPROVING.
Played with a Lot OF Dash and Get
Up, but the Ponies Won
Cut.

instead of paltry four or five-hun-
dred there ought to have been as many
thousand of the knockers and the faith
full at Athletic park yesterday after
noon. The Miners lost the game, but
that isn't the point, The game ended
in a driving finish and the Miners came
out of the melee one run shy, but while
the miX-up was on, ii was a thing
beautiful to witness.
The ninth inning opened with the
Miners at the bat, and the tally 5-4 in
favor of the Ponies. When the first
half ended Meaney and Daily had been
injected into the game and two runs
pulled in on an error by Gilbert singles
by Massey and DAILY, and a force hit
by Morse. That gave us a lead of one,
but the Ponies in their half, with one
out, bagged the game on a base on
balls, a passed ball, a single and steal
and another single.
Your Uncle Pop Appendicitis Morse
dshed out the shoots for Griffin's men,
and though he had speed tc throw
away and good control his curves were
just to the Ponies liking. They land
ed on him fifteen times. Only in two
innings, however, did they get as
many as three hits, and this scat
tering, together with Morse's good sup
port and new lot of ginger in the
Miners base running, forced the Ponies
to make the most Of their hitting to
win out

FULL OF SEA-SAW.

Barring a horne defeat the game was
a thing of beauty if not quite an ever
lasting joy. The Ponies made the first
tally in the second. 1t was 2-1 against
us in the third. The Miners tied it in
the first of the sixth but in the last
half Springfield made it 3-2. In the
eighth Griffins men made it 4-3 in their
it was GA against us. The Miners tai
lied twice in the first of the ninth,
making the score theirs at to s. the
Ponies making the most of their final
chance winning out by to 6. If all
that wasn't an exhilerating little argu-
ment, there won't be another in Scran-
ton this year.
Two very erratic throws and a missed
grounder by Gilbert was all that
marred the field work of either team.
O'Brien had an error, but it was on
n fly muffed after making long, hard
run into Walters territory. Walters
appeared in center and did not show,
either by his base running or field
play, the effects of a. long crippled
knee. His throwing was a little offish
but that was TO be expected after his
long period of idleness. His two hits
made possible three of Scranton's runs.
Duncans catching and Schefers four
hits were the features of the Ponies
playing, though Scheff's three-baser
would have been an out If Eagan had
not misjudged IL.

AT THE BEGINNING.

In the first inning a hit for the first
man up on each side was all that fell
TO the portions of the two teams. Bon
ner led off with n single in the second
but the most he could then do was to
make a steal while the next three men
were going out. The Ponies went
one better and tailed on Brouthers'
single, Smiths force and singles by
Gilbert and Duncan.
Morse got a walk in the third and
with O'Brien out Walters singled Morse
TO second Beard forced Morse at third
hut Gilbert returned the ball wild to
second, Walters getting home. Smith
fielded the ball to third but with no
one there to take 1t, the ball rolled TO
the visiting bench and Beard tried TO
score, hut was thrown out at the plate
by Duncan TO Mains. In the SPRING
field half Mains singled, went 20 sec
ond on wild pitch, advanced a bag on
Fuller's sacrifice and after Green had
fouled cut scored on Scheffler's three
baser over Eagan's head. Three fault
less assists by Eagan, Walters and
Mcguire caught Scheff by a yard at
the plate. Score 1-2.
1t was one-two-three with both sides
in the fourth and the same with tho
Miners in the fifth. With one out in
the last half Moore and Mains singled
but the latter was caught by Gunson
mapping of first and Fuller flew out
10 Beard.
O'Brien tripled to left-center in the
sixth and was singled in by Walters
who stole second and died there. Green
hit high fly to right-centsr In the last
half and OBrien muffed 1t while on a
lead run, Green reaching second ON
the error and scoring ON Sehenler's
single. Score 80.

Anything unusual these dull times
is hailed with delight, aud, if there is
spice of danger in it, the pleasure
Is only increased. 1t is to Burkes
Garden that we are indebted for the
following incident:
Last Friday morning about eight
o'clock colored man who works for
Mr., +. Nj. Moss, discovered an i'm
mense black bear leisurely vending
his way through the sugar orchard
with the same assured air of propri.
etorship that his ancestor two hun
dred years would have worn in pass
ing over the Same ground. The
colored man immediately started in
pursuit, but with no weapons save
those which nature had provided
him. The two, bear and man, logged
along at right brisk pace for some
distance, neither apparently in the
least Inconvenience by the proximi
! ty of the other; but, after awhile.
his bearship apparently became i'm
pressed with the fact that, as they
were both going the same way, il
would be the proper thing for him to
wait for company. The colored man
at once showed the innate selfish.
ness of human nature by fatty refus.
ing the proffered company. OF
course the bear was offended and at
once proceeded on his way. This
same thing was repeated couple of
times. 1t is but fair TO the man TO
say that he explains his conduct by
saying that something in The bears

hair along his neck and back to stand
more erect than ."it really ought,

ings.
BY this time many other men had
joined the procession, and all won't
merry as Il marriage bell. Down
thro' Col. Thompson's farm, out into
Robt. Meek S meadow, over into Jno
Gose's pasture aud finally into the
mountain they went. One or two
little incidents happened to mar the
pleasure of the occasion, Joe. Kelly
and II friend OF his both remembered
at the same time that Mrs. Thomp
son had asked them to hunt the eggs
and, not wishing TO leave without SO,
they both rushed under the house II
little too hurriedly in their hast to
finish the task and to reioin the bear
party, and, as a result Joe is wearing
large eight by ten court plaster
which is temporarily sewing in the
place of lost cuticle scraped off by

Joe's friend hardly knows what ails
him, but he has sworn Off from egg
hunting and is now wearing a Re
publican badge on each knee of his
pants.
Simon X became offended at
something the bear had done, pro
cured 3S calibre, repeating, thous-
and yard range, Remington rife and
started in pursuit, with blood in his
eye. Something serious might have
happened but SIMON could not get
the bear further off than $50 yards
and, as the bear was sitting quietly
in the meadow looking at him, he
concluded that it would be murder
to fire, so he restrained himself. In
this way tragedy was narrowly
averted. The whole affair thus pas.
sed off with no one, except Joe and
his friend, any the worse for the
experience. c.

DANIEL KYLER.

DANIEL KYLER, born near Dayton, o.,
December 10, 1928; died at his home near
Collamer, Kosciusko county, Ind, Nov.
3, 1897 He belonged to family of eleven
children, seven of whom survive him
Jacob, Basil, Jessie and George Kyler and
Mrs. Ellen Strong, Mrs. Marian Pence
and Mrs. Mile Judy.
He came with his parents, to Indiana
in 1886. Was married to Miss Elizabeth
Ried, of Collamer, Ind, Oct. 20, 1850. To
them were born five childen, two sons
living except one son who died in infancy.
Daniel Kyler was man of industrious
habits, of great strength and uprightness
of character and was highly esteemed by
all who knew him for the sterling quail
tiles of his mind and heart. He was one
of the charter members of the Universal
ist church of Collamer, Ind, and until
and only when sickness deprived him of
the privilege he was always to be found
at his post of duty in the church as else
where and he will be greatly missed by
the small but faithful band of Universal
lists who worship and maintain services
there.
His bereaved companion, children and
other relatives have the consolation of the
blessed memories and influence of an up
right, generous and noble life by which
che being dead yet speaketh.'
The funeral services and his burial took
place Nov. 5, 1897 at the church and
cemetary near his original homestead in
Kosciusko county where his son George
Kyler and family reside.
Rev. H. Lewellen, of Fort Wayne, con-
Quoted the services in the presence of a
large and sympathetic audience of rela-
tives neighbors and friends who thus at
tested their love and respect for a truly
good and righteous man who peacefully
passed out of the lower into the realms of
the higher life. H. LEwELLEN.
