SECOND GAME IS
BUFFALO VICTORY
BiSonS Have Hard Battle With
Mike Friel's Motive Power
Team
BY ICY" KLONE

Having won the first two exhibition
games of the training season by
scores of 10 to 3 and to 4, Donovan's
International League ball tossers of
the Buffalo team are now in better
shape than even the CHEEKY Patsy ex-
pected.
The boys are playing good, snappy
ball, and so far it has every appear
ance of being equal to mid-season
work." said Patsy Donovan.
Yesterdays game with the Motive
Power Team of the Pennsylvania
Railroad gave the Bisons the best
workout of their training period. The
Motive Power ball tossers held the
Bisons to eleven hits.
O'Neil Is Good Man
Jimmy O'Neill, holding down sec
ond base for the Bisons is coming
through with big league work.
Jimmy is one of the most enthusiastic
players of the team, every word while
he is working is of encouragement TO
both vets" and rockies" his work
in yesterdays game well proved his
efficiency and claim to second base as
steady job. Lonergan at shortstop
also made several very Snappy plays,
once doubling up a man at second.
Tex Mcdonald at third is all ginger,
he succeeded in getting two good hits
out of four times up. Jackson made
three of the Bison's eight runs, while
Lonergan scored twice and Wielder,
McCabe and Mcdonald each toed the
plate tallying a run.
Early this morning it was not
known what team would play against
the Bisons this afternoon, but it is
expected that a good local nine will
be found before the day is very far
advanced. On Friday the West End
A. c. will meet the herd and on
Saturday Lebanon College or the
Motive Power team of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad will come to the Island
grounds for another encounter with
Patsy's trained and tanned Bison herd

a TY-TONGUED AMERICAN
MISSION CIRCUIT

The Rev. f. G.. Hamley, Baptist
home missionary in northern Wiscon-
sin, has sent to the Christian Herald
an interesting report of his work In a
wide circuit in the north woods. Mr..
Hamley's work centers at Merrill,
Wis, and he ministers to people
speaking more than seventy tongues.
Twenty-Five miles east of Merrill, at
the Cumming settlement, a small clear
ing in the great woods, he started
Sunday School in a log building. In
the eastern part of the county, in a
large Russian settlement, he found a
household given to daily Bible reading
and prayer, the members of the set
tlement having been converted by
Baptist missionaries in Russia and
having fled to America to avoid per-
secution. Farther to the north about
ten miles from the shore of Lake Su-
perior, another audience waits the
missionary in the cook shanty of a log
ging camp. In a sawmill town thirty
miles distant. Mr.. Hamley has an
other flock. Last summer, in a seven
days missionary tour the pastor trav-
eled 800 miles, preaching nine sermons
and making 100 calls. and making
thirty-five of the 800 miles on foot

The Pennsylvania State League is
scheduled for a session in Harrisburg
tomorrow. Since the meeting in
motors have been busy in every city.
AS the opening games are to be played
May 10, it will be necessary to COM
plete many important details to-mor-
row. Five cities are ready with
grounds and according to reports
players are being signed. There is a
hitch at York, and Altoona and Johns
town reports are not very encouraging.
However, other cities have bid for
franchises. Much interest is mani
tested in the outcome OF Tomorrow S
meeting.
The West End A. c. will play Patsy
DonoVan's Buffalo team at Island
Park tomorrow. This game in the
opinion of local fans will be an op-
portunity to see some of Harrisburg S
fast youngsters at work. The West
End team is-one of the strongest in
Central Pennsylvania, ana the first to
get into the game every season. Re-
