FINE TwIRLNG
BY sIcFarlan at Fairmont Shuts out
the Connellsvile Team.

McFarlan's superb pitching for
Fairmont shut Connellsyille out in
the West Penn game at Fairmont
Sunday, the score being to 0.
McFarlans work was phenomenal.
He never allowed himself to get in
bad hole and with men on bases it
was impossible for the visitors to do
any reliable thing with his delivery.
His speed, curves and control were
perfect.
With the exception of couple of
instances the fielding behind the big
fellow was good. The visitors play
ed good ball all through. The
score:

Doves and RELIGION.

zone thing remarked and think
worthy of notice Is that ever since
Noah's dove every religion seems to
consider the pigeon as sacred bird.
For example. every mosque swarms
with pigeons. and the same exists in
most Italian market places. The Hin
doc puudlts and the old Assyrian en-
plre also have them. while Catholics
make 1t the emblem OF the Holy
Ghost"

Mohammedan mystery play of HAS.

"Then comes the bier with Hossein's
corpse and his son sitting upon 1t sor-
rowing and embracing him and a beau
tiful white dove in the corner whose
wings are dabbled with blood. The ef-
feet upon the excited crowd Is awful"

1t was Casey at the bat for sure
Sunday afternoon at Union Park
when the Latrobe West Penn aggre-
cation by splendid fielding and
TIMELY, juicy swats handed the
Clarksburg boys a large goose-egg
and helped themselves to the pie
FIVE times. Two terrible errors by
clarksburg made two slices of it
easy finding.
Casey is the short stop on the visit
ing team and when he went to bat
in the eighth inning after Clark
made nice single to deep right, he
connected the ball and bat with
smack that caused shudders all over
the grand stand, scramble among
fielders away out in left garden and
the joy dance by Clark. The stunt
also produced an earned run for
himself and Monohan singled
Thomas in after he had been based
and stolen second in cute manner.
Thus the visitors scored three times.
The other two runs were the re-
suit of rank errors by Center Fielder
McCracken. He let the ball slide
through his hands in the seventh and
in the ninth. he ran into Hoffman
who was making for a large, rain
bow shaped fly that Clark knocked
into far right. The ball was lost
temporarily and before it was pick
ed up and sent in Clark had shot
the chutes for a splasher by his
lonesome.
With the exception of single err
for by Short Stop Casey in the
eighth when he had fight with the
globule the visitors played splendid
ball aud their playing was reluc-
family appreciated by the spectators.
Clarksburg made six hits but they
were not so very much and the ball
was handed in rapid fire shape to
the slaughter house. Two double
plays by the Latrobe boys were re-
markable for speed. They were in
the first and second, Hamilton and
Monohan when HOLSTER pushed one
out and Thomas to Casey to Mono
han when Hoffman did small one.
Osborn pitched for the home team
and held the visitors down to five
hits. He struck out five men and
based three, while willetts, the
visiting twirler, gave us six hits. two
walks and two fans.

SpOrtOgranlS


The game was quite strenuous on
Sunday for Centerielder Clark of
Latrobe. He took mud bath when
he slid to second in the second in
ming and in the fourth he was knock
ed out by pitched ball that struck
him in the neck. He was at bat in
the sixth as spry as ever.
The two double plays by Latrobe
were alright. They had the speeu
of regular league playing.
Some thought the circle by Clark
in the ninth on Mccracken's error
was home run. 1t cannot be called
such because of the error.
Bill" Harrington hands in the
following, clipped from the Brad
ford Era, which he says is particu-
larly applicable to the Clarksburs
team at present:
Tell US not the mournful numbers
Which make up our teamlets'
score:

For our fans to walk the floor.
Brighter, better days are coming

Therefore, brothers, let's be cheerful,

TAE eREAT 4WAR COMET.
It's Fiery, Spreading Tail Was Fifty
Million Miles Long.

It's Fiery Spreading Tail Was Fifty
Million Miles Long.
The wonderful ''war comet" of 1861
sprang so suddenly into view and
blazed with such unexampled bril-.
liancy as to astonish the astronomers
and Brighten those unlearned in come.
tary lore half out of their wits. The
unlearned declared that the civil war.
which was just getting well under
Roadway. must have something to do
with it. However this may be, 1t
burst forth, unheralled and unlimited,
shining with greater brilliancy and
magnitude than any phenomena of a
similar nature which that generation
had ever seen.
On the night of July 3 of that year
it exhibited u most wonderful spec
tacle. In the evening the nucleus did
not appear to be larger than star in
the first or second magnitude. As the
small hours of the morning approach.
ed, however. the nucleus visibly in
creased in both magnitude and bril-
llancy. The tail waved back and forth
over our little world in most threat-
ening manner. at times sending rays
almost to the zenith. On the morning
of July the astronomers announced.
through the daily papers that the head
of the great comet was only separated
from the earth by distance of H.
100000 miles. According TO the report
sent out from the Cambridge observa-
tory, the comet appears to have pass.
cd its ascending node between the 9th
and the 2eth of June In longitude 279
degrees, the longitude Of the earth be-
ing 277 degrees at the same time.
On Oct. 10 its tail extended over a
space Of 100000 miles and at sew
eral points was not less than 10000
600 miles in width.
At first 1t was generally conceded
that 1t was the famous comet OF. 1856.
the one which caused the Emperor
Charles v. of France to resign his i'm
perial throne. he taking it to be
warning from God. All surmises were
subsequently set at rest by the discov.
cry that It was the famous Thatcher
comet, discovered by Professor A. r.

tory in New York city.

BIG ORDERS FOR NEW
STEEL RAILS EXPECTED.
When They Come Mill Owners and EN-
ployees Will Have Money
to Spare.

PITTSBURG Nov. Predictions are be-
ing made here that the delay of the rail-
roads In placing orders for steel rails will
be ended within thirty days, when Ii Is
expected that there will be upward Of
from 100000 to 5000, 900 tons of new orders
placed. The Importance of these predic-
tons, should they materialize, to the iron
and steel trade of Pittsburg is hard to
overestimate. The vast tonnage, amount
ing at least to SOC. 600, 900. will place the
trade In boom condition and strengthen
every other branch OF the steel industry.
The conferences between the railroads
and the steel manufactures over the process
of rail manufacture has drifted along for
months longer than had been anticipated
by either side, it Is said. The agreement
now reported to have been reached, pro-
vides for an optional percentage of crop
ping new rails. Under the old process s
per cent. of a new rail was cut off to in
sure s~oundness of the reInainer. Experts
claimed this is too small and a recon-
mendation that 1t be increased to 10 per
cent was made.
To offset the additional cost that this
would mean to manufacturers, 1t Is said, 1t
has been tacitly agreed that the increase
cropping will advance the price of rails.
Under the old arrangement, rails sold for
S2S a ton, which price. it is said. will ad-
vance to 81 a ton under the new arrange.
