O'Brien had his shoulder injured while sliding to
second and was kept out of the game for the
rest of the innings
Catcher Frank McManus, the crack Allentown
backstop, has been sold by the management to
the Chicago team in the American league. Nc
Manus is a splendid player and ought to shine
in the western company
Danny Coogan, one of the catChers of the dis
banded original Reading team, is another one
of the players who has already drifted into the
New York State league, and is making big hit
by his backstop work for Cortland.
Catcher Byers Saturday night left the Harris.

Saturdays crowd at the park was about as
hoSptable an aggregation of rooters as ever as
sembled to see a team play ball Throughout the
entire game they rooted for the visitors and
whenever a player wearing the fiery Harrisburg
uniform crossed the plate he was cheered loud
and long.

for the Chicago National league team, is pushing
Flick, of Philadelphia, hard for the home run
hitting honors Friday against Boston he made

An odd happening took place in Saturday S
game between Harrisburg and Scranton. At the
conclusion of Scrantons half of the eighth in.
ming the jersey City players, one and all picked
up their bat bags and started for the gate, think
ing the game was over Umpire Russell, strange
to say, labored under the same delusion and it
was enly after the players were recalled from
the grand stand that the game went on.
