time before he wrote. Both are enjoy
ing excellent health. Mr.. Gardner is

The West Side Browns, of Mayfeld,
met and easily defeated Sam Mende-
sons Tigers yesterday afternoon, and
when the Browns got through with
them they were about as tame a lot
of tigers as ever roamed the region,
and Sam felt even worse than he did
the day after the Republican pri-
maries. The score was: Browns, 81;
Tigers, I. Maynard and Roe were the
battery for the former and Mendleson
and Breen for the Tigers. 1t has been
suggested that the latter change their
name.
Mr.. and Mrs. Clarence Cobb, of
Greenfield, formerly residents of this
borough, met with a serious accident
on Tuesday evening, while driving
from Carbondale to their home. In
passing under the Brooklyn street
bridge a train overhead frightened the
horses, who ran away, throwing both
Mr.. and Mrs. Cobb and their little
child out. Mrs. Cobb fell upon "a rock.
inflicting a cash in her head, which
required seven stitches to close Mr..
Cobb was badly bruised, and it is
feared he is hurt internally. They
were attended by Dr. J. a. Kelly, of
Carbondale. The child escaped without
injury. The team was captured a short
distance away. They were uninjured,
but the wagon was considerably dam
aged.
