"oUR PETS" ROUGHLY HANDED,
Scranton Team Showed Them the
Way Game Is Played.

The biggest crowd which has assem-
bled at Athletic park in years to watch
an amateur base ball game, gathered
Saturday afternoon and saw the Scran-
ton Amateurs defeat the Carbondale
Crescents, in a game too one-sided to
be interesting.
Between two and three hundred en-
thusiasts accompanied the Crescents
down from Carbondale, and attempted
to cheer them on to victory. But 1t
wasn't day upon which victory was
to perch upon the standards, of Our
Pets" as the team Is known in Carbon
dale.
They played brand of ball which
was to say the least, not gilt-edged.
"Our Owney" McAndrew, who Carbon
dale cranks claim could be easily elect
ed mayor of the city, for his base ball
prowess alone, essayed to pitch for the
pets. The Scranton sluggers found
him for thirteen hits, for a total of
twenty-one bases, and sorrow and
gloom pervaded the countenances of
the men from the little city OF churches.
"And they call them our Pets'!" one
Scranton rooter cruelty gibed as local
baserunners were filing across the
plate in an apparently never-ending
procession, but his next remark was
drowned In a chorus of jubilant yells
and tin horn selections, as the side was
finally retired.
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1902-08-18

"Show 'em your thumb, Owney, They
won't believe that its swollen as Die
as your fist" Carbondalian yelled, in
patriotic vindication of the twirler, as
the team came i'm from the field, but
McAndrew only grinned heroic smile,
and did not show the thumb.
Frantz, who was the star of the
game, from Scranton standpoint, exc
cuted one of the prettiest plays ever
seen on the local diamond, In the ninth
inning Lotus was on first, one man
was out, and McAndrew at bat. The
pitcher who wanted some revenge on
Fox, who was pitching splendid ball
for Scranton, swung viciously at one
of the first balls served to him. A
terrific line drive resulted, and the ball
shot towards third like flash.
1t was over Frantz's head, but the
third baseman sprang high in the air,
and pulled the drive down with his
un-gloved hand. He quickly recovered
his balance, and sent the leather over
the diamond, in time to nip Lotus at
first and close the game. The score
was: Scranton, II; Carbondale, g.

ty-foot frontage. The building itself
is eighty-five feet deep by forty-five
wide. A Moorish style of construction
was adopted in it's structure, and the
temple is now somewhat suggestive, in
it's general outlines, of an Oriental
mosque, this effect being considerably
enhanced by the turreted superstruc-
ture, and the large copper dome.
The sub-structure of the building is
of heavy gray stone, and the general

vestibule and thence into the temple

Archie Adams, prisoner serving a
nine months sentence at the county
Jail for larceny, escaped last night. be-
tween $50 and 8 o'clock, after having
sawed his way to liberty through two
three quarter inch iron bars.
Adams was sentenced on June . last
to nine months imprisonment, having
been convicted of stealing various ar
ticles from the barn of DR.. II. III. Glib
bons, on Wyoming avenue. He had
been serving as assistant cook at the
Jail since he was brought to that in
stitution, and this employment gave
him the opportunity to effect his es-
cape.
The kitchen at the Jail is located in
the basement at the Washington ave-
nue. end of the building. Adjoining the
kitchen is a store-room, from which
open two windows onto the Washing
ton avenue front, about ten feet south
Of the main entrance. These windows
are four feet high and about nine feet
from the floor, and, like all basement
windows. they are half below the sur
face of the ground and half above.
WINDOWS PROTECTED.
They are protected with three-quar-
ter inch iron bars, running both hori-
zontally and perpendicularly.
Adams was last seen about $50
o'clock by fellow prisoner, Fred Sny-
der, who is also employed in the kit
chen. Snyder left him working around
the store-room, and coming upstairs,
seated himself in the corridor until 9
o'clock, when the prisoners are all put
in their cells.
When the roundup was made,
Adams was found to be missing, and a
search by Keepers Wesman and
Graves failed to reveal his where
abouts.
When it became known that he was
missing, Mrs. Kelly, the matron, sug-
gested examining the store-room VIM
dows. She had seen Adams looking
out of one of them on Saturday night,
and when she asked him what he was
doing there he said he was merely
looking out OH the street.
An investigation showed that two
perpendicular bars had been filed in
two at the bottom and partly filed at
the top and then broken off, leaving
an opening about 12X14 inches. The
wire netting outside the window had
been broken from it's fastenings and
pushed aside.
Sheriff Schadt, who had come over
from Lake Ariel at SIS. was notified
and went at once to the Jail. A search
was made of Adams cell, but no trace
of any tools could be found. A chest
which he kept in the store-room was
broken open, however, and fine file,
twelve inches long, was found. This
was the tool used by Adams in cutting
his way out, as long nails We're run
through holes at each end, affording
him an opportunity to get a firm pur-
| chase.
WOMAN IN THE CASE.

| nished Adams by some one who has
visited him since his Incarceration.
| Among his visitors have been two wo-

sent out to the police last night by the
sheriff is as follows: Weight. 139
