first on an error by Doherty: Halli-
CHAN sent long hy in right field Cd
well taking second base. Goeckel came
next and was successful in reaching
first. Burns sent a liner over third
base Goeckel going to second. Ather-
ton helped the game along, and so on,
until six runs were made.
There were no special features dur
ing the game, aside from the excellent
work of Mcmahon. noherty was very
weak at third. He made three costly
errors. There were no errors for
Wilkes Barre. Hodson pitched an eX-
cellent game, giving but one man base
on balls and that was Hallighan, in the
last half of the seventh inning. Hod-
son met with a painful injury during
the last half of the eighth inning.
While stopping a hot liner his left hand
was split quite badly; Allen taking his
place. The first ball Allen threw was
wild pitch, but he soon got down to
good work and made Wilkes Barre
guess. The score:

the part of many residents of Scran-
ton to see the original members of
Roosevelt's Rough Riders in action.
Colonel Cody CBuffalo BID will give
the anxious ones a chance to see what
they have for Il long time wished to
witness. He has, after considerable
trouble, succeeded in securing twenty
five of these famous warriors. Men
who actually saw battle, took part in
skirmishes, and in fact were wounded
in different engagements. These men
are known the world over, and have
been secured especially for the great
heroic charge up San Juan Hill, to be
accurately reproduced by this organ
ization, which will be shown here on
Monday, May %.
These Rough Riders are only part Of
the six hundred persons who are to
truly represent to the people the Rough
Riders of the different nations. includ-
ing war painted Sioux chiefs and
braves. sinewy COssacks from the
Caucasus, fanatic BedOuins on their

The ancients believed that rheuma. tism was the work of demon within a man. Any one who has had an attack of sciatic or inflammatory rheumatism will agree that the infliction is demo- niac enough to warrant the belief. It has never been claimed that Chamber. lain's Pain Balm would cast out de. mons. but it will cure rheumatism, and hundreds bear testimony to the truth of this statement. One application re- lieves the pain, and this quick relief which it affords is alone worth many times its cost. Webb x Sanders.
 Marshal Wolff has notified most all of the loafers and vagrauts that there is no excuse here now for idleness, and that if he finds them loafing about town, he will put them on the street gang. He is exactly right. There are a whole lot of fellows. black and white, who have no visible means of support and 1t is the marshai's duty to take them up and give them work to do. We don't believe in discrimination. though, and hope the law will be en. forced without fear or favor and with. out respect to race, color or previous condition.
 Hon. R. J. Williams. attorney for the levee board, has just issued, in his off, cial capacity. a pamphlet of twenty four pages, entitled An Abstract and Brief "- Abstract of the statutes of Arkansas creating the St. Francis levee district aud incorporating a board of directors therefor, and pre- scribing their powers and duties {; and a brief. on tbe validity of bonds issued by the board of directors of said dis trict, authorized by the act of the leg. islature, approved March 14, 1899. '" The matter treated is set forth in de- tail and to the satisfaction of any sane reader. The object of the pamphlet is the information of prospective pur- chasers of the levee bonds. The print. ing was executed at THE TIMES office.
 If you would increase your happiness and pr0long your life. says the Ridg- way (llls. News, forget your neighbor's faults. Forget the slander you have heard. Forget the temptations. For get the faultfinding and give a little thought to the cause which provoked it.. Forget the pecuiarities of your friends, and remember the good points which made you fond of them. Forget all the personal quarrels or histories you may have heard by accident, and which if repeated, would seem thousand times worse than they are. Blot out as far as possible all the disagreeables of life: they will come, but they will grow when you remember them, and con stant thought of the acts of meanness make you more familiar with them Obliterate everything disagreeable from yesterday, start out with clean sheet for today, and write upon it for swee, memory's sake only those things which are lovely.

The Cosmos Club.


 The announceIiienL that Mrs. Bard. assisted by Mrs. Nichols. would enter. tain the Cosmos Club. was the occasion of much speculation, as these two la- dies have long since become famous for their unique entertainments. With wlts slarpened, we sallied forth uri 5 Thursday last, each thinking she would come out victor in any literary test. Think of our chagrin when we could not comply with request to give full names of Jer0me k. Jerome. II. Rider Haggard. A. Conan Doyle and other writers, of whom we have read so much, Other tests were to give real names instead Of non deplumes. as who was II. II. Octave Thanet. Olive Optic. etc, and who is "The Little Minister. The Christian, What is the Scarlet Let ter,h etc.
 Mesdames German. Graham, Norton and Miss Norma RoI1wage. having made the highest scores, drew for a beautiful prize Greek Heroes which Miss Rollwage got. .
 Dainty refreshments were served. and we felt that Time was like st fashionable host that slightly shakes his parting guest bv the hand" for w- soon said au revoir, each voting Mes. danes Bard and Nichols the queens of entertainers, and wishing that we had more honorary members who would be willing to follow Mrs. Bard's example.
