SOUTH SCRANTON WON.
Dick Nallin's Team Defeated South
ards Picked Players Saturday.
Features of the Game.

An interesting though rather loosely
played game of base ball was witnessed
by large number of spectators Satur-
day afternon when the South Scranton
Neam defeated Southard's picked
Scranton nine by the score of II to I
al Athletic park.
Both teams fielded poorly and had
proper support been accorded the pitch
crs. the number of runs scored would
have been far less. Both Harding and
Crossin pitched good ball and the lat
ter had the better of the argument
He famed nine men and kept the
seven hits he gave well scattered.
Moreover. Of the nine safe drives made
off Harding's fast delivery four were
solid two-baggers.
Two villa Nova players made their
appearance in the game, Richard Nal
lin and Joe Weir. Nallin also played
last year with the strong Chester
team. He was strong at first base
Saturday and led both teams with the
stick. Weir fielded prettly. but was
unable to hit Crossin, who famed him
not twice.
The fielding feature of the game oc-
Cured in the fourth inning and was
contributed by McHugh of the Scran-
ton team. Crossin was on second and
Kane on third, when Crane came to the
bat. He lifted high twisting fly into
short left field and McHuGh turned
and ran for it. 1t was far over his
head and no one thought for moment
that he could get it, but suddenly
thrusting out his right hand the ball
dropped into it. Kane was way off
third and a quick throw to Bradley
completed the double play.
Calkin made a sensational catch in
Caulkin made a sensational catch in
game. Nallin's three drives were the
batting feature, his two-baGgcr and
single being good clean hits. His third
hit. however, was meant for Il sacri-
fee, but was transformed into a sin
gle by Kellct's work in handling it.
only eight innings were played there
being a mutual misunderstanding at
the end of the eighth that the game
was over. The score follows;

THE STRIKE IS OVER.
The Backbone of the Newsboys' Fight
Against New York Papers Was
Ye' day Broken.

The threatened strike Of the city
newsboys against the New York papers
which they refused to carry unless they
could purchase them from the LaCkH-
wanna News agency for four ana a
half instead of five cents, occurred yes
terday morning and lasted just about
fifteen minutes, at the expiration of
which time one of the boys timdly on
tered the shop and asked J. A. Curtis,
who Is in charge. for his regular al
lotment Of papers.
He was followed by another boy, and
then another. and another, until nearly
all of the crowd Of between seVenty-tivc
and one hundred Grimy-iaccd urChinS
had troopcd into the place and taken
out their papers. But one figure was
left outside, a short, sturdy, aggressive
looking youth on whose Countenance
tho angry workings of a frenzied spirit
were easily diScerniblo. 1t was Duffy,
James Duffy. president of the News
boys and BootblaCks' union. The storm
was gathering, and when some Of the
boys made their exit, carrying bundles
Of papers, the president strovc to re-
Eindle the smoulderinG spirit Of his fol-
lowers by tongue lashincs and. in some
cases, an efiiCaCiOus use of a pair of
knotty little fists.
The strike was over, however, and
during the day the patrons of the met
ropolitan papers experienced not the
least trouble in getting their copies.
one unfortunate young neWsboy was
pcddIing the papers about the Lacka-
wanna station during the morning and
encountered two faithful unionists. The
latter bounced upon him and after
they had tinted the atmosphere a
bright Ccrulcan by d choice collection
of utlcs with which they branded him,
proceeded to give him "A severe drub-
bnG.
As a rule, the papers are distributed
at tie Lackawanna station by Mr.. cur

asency's establishment in Center street,

maEdcd to know what he vas going to

sWercd. and added "Arcn't YOU ready
yet to stop this fooling?"
Never" hoWlcd a chorus of one
hundred lcather-lungcd youngsters.
"Thcn get out" he exclaimed. and
the boys Immediately departed and re-
manned about the premises until the
matter eliminated as told above, The
union met Saturday night in Guernsey
hall, and ordered the strike in case OF
a refusal of their demands. RcprcSen-
tHtives were present from the New
York Herald. journal and World ano
after arguing against the strike left
the bah. The boys claim that they Il,
not make enough money out of tho
sunday papers at the present rates
considering the extra onCrous work Oi
carrying around a sovcnty-paGe paper
They received a reduction to four anC
a half cents by communicating directly
with the New York papers, but after
one week the price WAS again raised.
The vote on u strike was 60-Ij. Mr.
Curtis is said to have offered the boys
concession in allowing them the
papers for four and a half cents if they
would uav cash when delivered tC
them. Al present they pay only fol
those they sell.
