Flushed with their victory of Monday the Buflerites flashed rolls of the "long green" which had been covered by local sports, and when Hazelton decided that Russel, who had taken two bases on a passed ball was out when the ball was put on him the trouble began. After three quarters of an hour had been frittered away and the crowd had become disgusted with scenes that occur only when wagers are made on the game, the management declared all bets off and Russell was given second base, which he was clearly entitled to. This move by the management cleared the decks effectually and it is said that in the future the same remedy will he applied when it is known that wagers have been made on the result of the game.

The Butler baseball team, chaperoned by "Jimmy" Breen, celebrated its advent In Punxsutawney Monday by taking a game from the locals with eomparattive ease. Concerning yesterday'* contest, however, there Is a different story to tell, for the particulars of which baseball fandom is respectfully referred to one G. W. Hobson, who officiated on the slab for Punx'y. Two hits and one tally in the first inning and then a long row of goose eggs In the hit and run footings is the meager diet on which the Breenites fed until the ninth when Shortwell jostled out a Texas Leaguer which bore no fruit. Punx'y failed to get into the hit column until the fifth inning when Corrigan and McDonald each found Witherup for singles that would have produced a score had not Wilhelm, who got to first by being hit, not got caught at third. In the sixth Allen hit but got caught at third on Campbell's sacrifice. Mac- Kown went out from pitcher to first and Russel plunked out an elongated single which scored Campbell. Wllhelm struck out retiring the side. In the last half of the ninth Inning, wih the score tied, Russell basted out a two-sacker, Wilhelm walked, Williams got to first on an error by Shortwell, and with the bases full and no one out, Corrigan laced one into right, center which would have been good for uvo scores had they been needed. Last week Mr. H. F. Weiss dug up out of box that was formerly in the posshaaion of William Davis, deceased, a oppy of the Mahoning Argus of April >13, 187G, and one of the PunxsutawneV Spirit of June 28, 1S77. The only l\cal news item in the Argus of that dale was this: "On Tuesday morning about three o'clock there was a through bracket on the Mahoning." The Spirit contained a number of news items, among the most important of which announced that "A plank pavement has been laid in front of the M. E. Church."

Another feature of the game was Russell's one-hand catch of a high flyer from McKechin's bat in the eighth inning, retiring the visitors.

The opening game with Butler at East End Park, Monday, resulted in a victory (or the visitors, score 4 to 1. The game proceeded smoothly until the sixth inning when Butler got a lead of one run which grew to three of a lead In the seventh. Both pitchers were easy at times but Patton's support, especially at the third sack, was not of the championship variety. It was Allen's first all-round off day as the tabulated score will show. Hazelton kept the hits scattered, in consequence of which the run column of the local team looks lean. Editor Spirit: A report is being largely circulated in and about Eleanora and Desire that, when testifying at the coroner's Inquest which was held for the purpose of ascertaining the cause of the death of 13 miners during an explosion in the Eleanora Shaft mine Thursday night, April 27, 1905, I testified that none of the miners had been burned. This report is false, as the following extract taken from my sworn testimony which was recorded by a competent shorthand writer and which is now a part of the County Coroner's official record, will show: (Questions by the County Coroner): Q. Did you bury any of the deceased in this (Eleanora Shaft Mine) late accident at the mine? A. Yes, sir. Q. How many of them? A. Thirteen. Q. Can you tell us anything about the conditions there, how you found them? A. Well, there were nine of them that actually were only hurt by bruises, that is on the back part of the head, and four of them that seemed to be burnt some. Q. Do you remember those names, Mr. Reed? The ones that were burnt? A. George Kirkwood, Adam Klrnwood and John Hopkins, and Moloaki, I believe, was the other fellow's name. Q. To what extent were they burned? A. Well, the hair was burnt of their heads and their eyebrows, and burnt some on the face and hands. L. H. REED, Undertaker, Desire, Pa. PUNXSUTAWNEY.
