BoehIing Shows Nerve.
Boehling had everything-especially
nerve. He stood out there as icy as a
picture of Doc Cook after his arrival
in Denmark He saw the sacks Uttered
in the eighth, but stripped the coming
hitters of anything that resembled a
productive punch
A marvellous one hand catch by La
porte on the heels of a similar catch
contributed by Dan MoelIer in the
Yankees fourth helped drag Boehling
to a spot where the footing UaS safer.
and in the New Yorks opener Two hits
in a row went for naught. as the south
paw himself caught a bloke mapping at
second, and picked him off.
George Mcconnell, who opposed US on
opening day, was the Yank pitching VIC
tim. Mcconnell pitched good ball, but
his support cracked when steadiness was
required, and daring base running. with
a timely wallop by Morgan tossed in,
furnished the ammunition for the Climb
ers' victory.
BY mutual agreement the combat was
declared over when the o'clock whistle
sang TO board the 5:S5 express for Bos-
ton.
Sparkling bits of fielding enlivened the
matinee. Danny Moeller. Frank Laporte.
and Roger Peckinpaugh contributed hair
raising catches.
After going two innings without con-
meeting safely. the Climbers began to
muss up George Mcconnell in the third.
Lsporte started the fuss with a Texas
Lacquer, the bail dropping safely behind
second base Henrys bunt advanced La
porte to second. Boehling famed. but
Moeler singled. and Laporte hiked to
third. With Foster up, Moeller danced
far enuogh off the initial sack to draw
a throw from Mcconnell. and while the
left wing of the Yanks' inner breast
works chased Moeller up and down the
base paths Laporte made a dash for the
plate. The throw from Peckinpaugh
came too late and Frank slid over safely.
Sweeney objected so strenuously TO the
decision that Connolly told the catcher
TO fade away to the bench and behave
himself. Chance sent in Gossett to do
the backstopping.
C1inch Game in Sixth.
In the sixth the Nationals grabbed off
two more runs and also had couple of
men caught at the plate. MoeIIer started
weakly to Mcconnell, and the pitcher
threw to second attempting to nip
Moeller. Peckinpaugh muffed the ball
Moeller was safe and to the surprise of
everybody Connolly ordered Foster to go
&c first base. claiming that Catcher Cos
sett had touched Eddie's bat with his
glove. and interferred with the midget's
swing Milan shot a single to left, and
when Moeller tried to score Cree's per-
feet throw got him Foster was adj
vanced to third and Milan to second on
this play. Chick Gandil grounded to
Hartzell. and Foster was run to earth.
but Milan sneaked down to third and
Gandil reached second, while this was
going on. Milan, attempting to steal
home was safe when one of McConnelrs
spitters got away from Catcher Gossett
Morgan slashed through Hartzell, and
Gandil scored.
AS Chance sent up a pinch hitter in
The shape of Derrick during the Yam
KEGS eighth, Ray Caldwell pitched the
final half of this inning and held the

The big scene in George Broad

Paid For" which will be the attrac-
ton at the Lyric Monday, April 81,

MITCHELL PALMER FOR
DEMOCRATIC GOVERNOR

Harrisburg, April 14.-Local DEM
ocratic politicians expressed them
selves as greatly pleased with the
shake-up in the local Federal Offices
and predicted that it would greatly
strengthen their party organization
for the Gubernatorial contest Of
next year.
Congressman A. Mitchell Palmer,
who is prominently mentioned as a
candidate for Governor, is expected
to have the disposal of the offices,
though his supremacy in State affairs
is being combatted by the 'Old
Guard" element of the party.

paid for her; that she was nothing
until he came and lifted her out of
her poverty. He says he has given
her everything and that now she
spurns his affections; he declares he
has a legal right to her, and by
sheer brute force he holds her in his
arms and kisses her. She tears away
from him and rushes into her room
locking the door. Infiamed by his
drunken passion, he snatches the
heavy brass fire-tongs and crying in
blind frenzy that he has a right to
her, he crashes in the heavy wooden
panel of her door and forces his way
into her room.
The scene is one of great strength
and daring which for over year, has
held great houses breathless.

MANY AFFECTED BY
CONTAGIOUS COUGH.

Residents of Honesdale are con-
siderably worried over a contagious
cough which seems to be affecting
old and young alike. Physicians
have been consulted, but have been
unable to diagnose the ailment with
any degree of certainty. The cough
is similar to whooping cough without
the whoop. 1t is not accompanied
by colds and is deep seated, af-
flicting the lungs. That it is contag-
ious is evidenced by the rapid spread
it has made through the community.
