With the game seemingly safely
stored away after scoring four runs
in the first inning of Tuesdays game
with the Truckers. the Colts lost out
in the eighth when the Portsmouth
batters got busy and chased four runs
over the pan. which with the three
already to their credit proved more
than enough to win the game. The
second game Of the series went to
the Truckers by the score of to 8.
Vail, who started out to twirl for
Portsmouth. was easy and was re-
lteved by Welscher. a new twirler. in
the second inning The newcomer
proved TO be puzzle and the visitors
could do little with his delivery. He
held them to Ave scattered singles
and one tally during the eight innings
he worked.
Revelle was solved in the eighth
and was finally relieved by Hale. but
1t was too late TO save the game.
Both teams hit the ball hard, but the
Truckers were able TO bunch them
and things broke well for the home
team

Meets Instant Death.
Mangled Remains Found on P. G.
E. r. r. Track.

Last Friday morning, about four
o'clock, a track-walker found the
mangled remains of Josep Bissig, aged
so years, on the track opposite Chest
nut street, his body having been drag
ged from Cherry street. About mid
night he went into Hayes livery stable,
where large number of lumbermen
had congregated, preparing to leave
for "Fiddlers Green" numbering camp,
and complained of being cold. He re-
mained there until about three o'clock,
when he left the barn, supposedly to
cross the railroad to the furnace, when
no doubt he was struck by the freight,
east bound, that passed Emporium at
Aid a. M. Esquire Larrabee, acting as
Coroner, was called and summoned a
jury, composed of Frank Mundy, AS
Murray, Albert johnson, Geo. Welsh,
@. A. Ruberto and Peter Ferguson,
who viewed the remains and adjourned
to meet Friday afternoon, which they
did and rendered verdict in accord
ance with the above facrs. The re-
mains of the unfortunate man were
taken to B. Egan's undertaking rooms
and prepared for burial which took
place from st. Marks Catholic Church,
Sunday afternoon, the remains having
previously been conveyed to the
family residence, West Allegany
Avenue Extension, where scores of
friends called to view the remains of
the kind-hearted friend.
Deceased leaves a wife and two
brothers-one, Anthony, who resides
on Plank Road Hollow and an invalid
brother at Austin; also several step
sons and daughters, his wife's first
husband having been John Hout.
The following relatives from out of
town attended the funeral: Tony
Bissig, Jr., Buffalo; Mrs. Michael
Welsh and sister, Austin; Michael
Spangler, Jr., Mrs. Michael Spangler,
Mrs. Jos. Emmert, Geo. Emmert, John

better Sunday Schools and educate the
! children in the study of the Bible.
Rev. McIllwain's address in the even
