Rustytown Is Sorrowful.

The papers of Rustytown. over the
Moosics, will be sad and loud in their
wailings this week. while the Archibald
correspondents will be piping as shrilly
as the Last Chance whistle. The Rusty
town children went down before the
Archbaldians, accent on the bald, at
Lake Lodore yesterday. 1t was fear
full slaughter. Poor Benny Hessing,
brave Benny Hessling, Benny Hessing,
got his bumps. Twas fearful
slaughter! Hits in one. twos and threes
until the score was 1876 at the finish.

The Morning Game.
The story of the morning game is a
short one. 1t was our misfortune tc
have the veteran Jack Fee in poor con
dition. After Saturdays game In
Honesdale. when he gave the Rusty
towners only three stngy hits. his arm
was stiff. He didn't realize the extent
of his stiffness until after he began
to pitch. The Hyde Parkers landed on
him and made five hits and six runs
In two innings. Then Jack gave up
the battle and our Owney went into
the box in the third inning.
Owney did nobly. With fine fielding
behind him, he kept the Hyde Park
lads down to one run. This was due to
a remarkably good steal by Tropp,
from third to home, on thrown ball
from second to the plate. One run in
seven innings on nine hits Is keeping
the hits well scattered. 1t was good
mornings work. and had Owney gone
into the box the first inning, the result
might have been different.
After the game there was some talk
among the rooters-perhaps we should
say the "knockers"-that the runs in
the first two innings were due as much
to the Crescents' errors as to the hits
off Fee. But such talk, such striking
ni c 80 %t,o
continuous performance of knocking
that has disgusted the loyal supporters
of the Pets for the past month. 1t
has been the rule when Il player made
an error, perhaps on a hard chance on
the fast diamond on Duffys field, to
lay the defeat to that misplay, regard
less of the indisputable fact that the
error had nothing to do with the re-
suit. 1t is this unreasonable, unchari-
table and uncalled for talk that has
disturbed the perhaps too conscientious
and too sensitive players, whose rec
ords have lowered somewhat, lately,
and If the knockers would only get
next to themselves, shut off their hot
air pipes, and be good, our "Pets"
would renew the winning streak that
made them "Johnnies- on the-spot"
with the KNOCKERS" until defeat
came.
The truth is with respect to the er-
rors in the first part of the game, only
two of the six in the first two innings
were charged to misplays. Four of
the six runs We're earned by punching
of hits. Errors by Fee, McTiernan and
Murray We're responsible for just two
of the six runs. These four runs were
enough to make the game good for the
Boone Hill, Sandy Banks, South Side,
and central city players.
The nine hits made off Owney were
responsible for only one run, while the
seven the pets" secured from Allen,
gave us our two tallies. We can re-
peat, therefore, with McAndrew in the
box from the start the result would
likely be different. 1t was splendidly
played game, one that the 1000 or more
'oooters enjoyed and did not begrudge
TO the visitors.

Sympathy for Ruel.

Ruel Hampton, who once cast his lot
in Carbondale and used to catch balls
at Alumni park, but is now in Homes
dale, Pa, is perhaps one of the most
ardent supporters of the team that
Billy Miller plays on. He will bank al
most anything on the Rustytown

Ruel-well, he'll tell the rest.
