A month ago folks were employing the 1 words nsed above in commenting upon the fate that was being meted out to Rochester pretty regularly long about that time, but now it's different. The Brownies are clean off the hog train and when the cranks learn that Rochester wins, they accept the statement as a matter of course instead of sarcastically uttering "Oh, come nfT!" in rniich the same tone as they would adopt should one tell them that the Powers building was walking tip and down Main street smoking cigarettes and eyeing the girls. The Rochesters set sail for home last night, leaving behind them in Wilkesbarre a strong and decided impression that they were the people. No chance for an argument. Truly, we are the people.

After "trunning down" Springfield twice and Wilkesbarre two times the Brownies have a God given right to wear feathers in their hats and walk behind their chests. Yesterday was a season of funny things in the Eastern League. Toronto yielded tqi twice to Springfield. So did Syracuse to Seranton. Buffalo knuckled under to the Providence Grays in the morning, and in the afternoon ran from the ball park to catch a train for home, thereby giving the Champions another game, a forfeited one.

As the result of this little maneuver. Providence is seated in second place this morning, vice the Bisons, who take third. Although Wilkesbarre lost one game to Rochester, she didn't drop two. Syracuse did, so Wilkesbarre, accordingly, steps into fourth place. The Brownies will tackle the Syracuse Stars this afternoon at Riverside.

By every sign in the zodiac and by every token in the Base Ball Ranter's Manual, there should be a crowd there to greet them, the like of which has not turned out to a ball game in this city for many moons. Chances are that the hooters will do their duty to the team in approved fashion. The boys have earned the biggest kind of a reception. Yesterday's Scores. Rochester.

Next Friday the pensioners in the Western New York district, to whom United States Pension Agent S. E. Nichols distributes $1,700,000 four times a year, will begin to receive their third quarterly installment from the Buffalo agency. The detailed arrangements for the July payment are being completed by Captain Nichols's faithful clerks, and the veterans ami widows of veterans who appear on the first day will find everything in readiness for them. The pension agent says that July 5th will be devoted to those pensioners who present themselves in person.

The succeeding ten days will be occupied in forwarding checks to the 45.0i0 pensioners in more remote parts of the state who mail their vouchers, executed on and after the fourth of July. The delays in payment of individual pensioners are occasioned by incorrect, and incomplete execution of vouchers for which the pensioners themselves, or the magistrates whom they employ, are responsible. The more common failures in the perfect execution of vouchers are these: Failure to give postofhee address of pensioner; incomplete or inaccurate signatures by the pensioner in the three places upon the voucher and the duplicate receipts: ao-sence of witnesses to the signatures or to the identification of pensioner. The duplicate receipts must invariably be witnessed. The magistrate executing the voucher can appear as the witness in these receipts, whether the pensioner signs by mark or in his own handwriting, but this official is not a competent witness in any other part of the voucher where witnessing is required.

Some of the magistrates are singularly negligent in the com-plote filling out of their own declaration, and in adding their official character to their f-ignatnros of this jurat. Pension Agent Nichols says that if in all cases the magistrates and pensioners were scrupulous in the exact observance of the manifest conditions for a perfect voucher, hundreds of pensioners would be saved a ten or twenty days' delay in receiving their pension checks. NO DEMURRER FILED. And There Was no Argument in the Dorthy Cases Yesterday. The demurrer to the indictments against Lawyer John F.

Dorthy waa to have been filed and argued yesterday morning. Justice Werner, when he heard the motion last Saturday to dismiss the indictments, said that in case he decided not to qu.ish the indictments, he would hear the arguments on the demurrer yesterday morning. No demurrer, however, was filed, and no argument took place. Shortly before court opened yesterday morning. Mr.

Van Voorhis appeared and in coinprnr with Mr. Warren of the district attorney's office, who had already arrived, went to Judge Werner's office, where a conference was held. It was then announced that Mr. Van Voorhis had failed to file his demurrer, for the reason that he had had no time since the decision of Justice Werner banded down on Thursday, to meet his client and prepare the Owing to the position taken by Justice Werner on the motion to quash the indictments, it is not thought thnt further action will be taken in the matter until the trial of the case in September. SUDDEN DEATH.

Mrs. Dafoe Died While Attending a Patient. While nursing Mrs. W. A.

Marnkle at No. 41 Finch street yesterday morning, Mrs. Norris N. Iafe died very suddenly. For three days she had been attending to this patient, and at the same time attending to her household duties.

She went to bed Friday night at as usual, and was aroused at 4 o'clock to attend to Mrs. Mar-akle. She got up. and started to walk across the floor. She had gone but a few steps, when she nn-led and fell to the floor.

Mr. Marakle was alarmed by the noise and hastened to the room. To found her lying on her face, and breathing faintly. Before Dr. II.

Gee could arrive the woman was dead. Deceased lived at No. 45 Finch street. For some years she lias followed the profession of nursing, in which she has been very successful. It is known that she has been affected for some time with a heart trruble.

She leaves a husband and three Mrs. Dr. Gee. Mrs. Herbert Lowrey and Miss Minnie Dafoe.

Coroner Graham granted a certificate of death from heart disease. Municipal Court Decisions. Judge Warner handed down the following decisions in municipal rourt yesterday morning: Flour City National Bank against W. II. Lyons, judgment in favor of the plaintiff for Flour Cify National Bank against George Kennedy and another, judgment of for plaintiff; Flour City National Bank against Charles llaitz, judgment of for plaintiff; Sarah J.

Cushman against James Goodman and Luther E. Mull, judgment in faior of plaintiff and against defendant. Mull, for Louis Windmuller against T. .7. Keeler and another, judgment of $71 for plaintiff; C.

Cowlcs Co. against T. Joseph Keeler. judgment in favor of the jtlnint.iff for Daniel Davis against Edward W. Jaekinan, judgment for plaintiff for $40.40.

A New Trial Granted. A decision was handed down yesterday by Justice Davy in the case of George 1,. Jackson against Theodore Curly, granting the defendant's motion for a new trial. The action in this case was brought by the plaintiff to recover a sum of money which plaintiff paid for cattle purchased for the defendant. The jury found a verdict for the amount of the claim.

The motion for a new trial was made upon the ground that the verdict was i-ontrary to the evidence, and contrary to law, and that an error was committed in receiving the evidence of the plaintiff as to prior transactions with the defendant, thus poss'bly prejudicing the jury. Went in Swimming. Joseph Zwemer and William Frost are two young men who delight in indulging in that siort which is vulgarly known as "going in swimming." At any rate they thought that they had a right to bathe in the canal, and so they did it. Their sport was broken in on by an officer, and the boys were brought to the police station. It was away out near the eastern wide water where they were bathing, but it did not make any difference where they were the ollicer said.

They were paroled. Fourth of July excursion to Conesus lake. 75 cents. Round trip includes steamer. Trains and 9:25 A.

Eight Young Women Started in the Contest. ALL WORE BLOOMERS About Five Thousand People Witnessed the Race The Winner Wore Skin Tight Knickerbockers, Which Gave Her the Race.

The 25-mile bicycle race for female riders at the driving park, yesterday afternoon, under the auspices of "Billy" Madden, developed the fact that "the new woman" is endowed with good staying powers, is rather good looking and withal, entirely self-reliant. The race was won by Miss Pearl Keys in 1:32:37 with Miss Kittie Staple second and Mrs. William C. Muntz third. The crowd in attendance was variously estimated at from 4.000 to 5.000, over half of whom were of the same sex as the fair contestants.

Of the male spectators the younger element accosted each other as "chappie," "dean fellah" and "old man," while the older attendants saluted acquaintances as "my dear boy." The chivalry of the attendants was in no wise allowed to interfere with the sporting instinct and before and during the contest the good and bad points of the riders were noted and commented upon with the same easy sang froid as is exhibited by the seasoned sport in discussing the points of an equine racer. Of the fourteen candidates entered, eight only had the requisite nerve to face Starter Madden. They were Misses Amanda Baker, Pearl Keys, Kittie Staple, May Brown and K. Van Sleek and Mesdauies 1'. J.

Dukelow, William C. Muntz and George Herring. For the binefit of those who are interested in bicycle costumes the following purely masculine description of the costumes worn by the contestants are given: Miss Baker, navy blue bloomers, white waist, blue yachting cap, black stockings; Miss Keys, grey mixed knickerbockers, red sash, black waist, red and white striped cap, black stockings; Mrs. Dukelow. black bloomers, waist and stockings and navy blue yachting cap; Mrs.

Muntz, navy blue bloomers, white waist with half sleeves, blue ami white jockey cap ami black stockings; Miss Staple, black bloomers, white sweater, blue yachting cap and black stockings; Mrs. Herring, navy blue bloomers, white sweater, white cap, black stockings; Miss Van Sleek, navy blue bloomers, pin striie blue and white waist with a cap to match and black stockings; Miss Brown, black bloomers, waist, stockings and jockey cap of the same hue. Miss Keys's victory was much more a triumph for her costume than it was for herself, for the reason that being the only contestant who was attired in anything like close fitting garments she offered much less resistance to the stronge breeze which blew up the home stretch, where the riders made a practice of spurting for position and thereby tired themselves somewhat unnecessarily. Those persons who attended the rare with the idea of seeing anylhing ludicrous were disappointed, for there were no disputes, no awkward tumbles or collisions. The costumes were neat and entirely modest.

Indeed if the clothing had not been made with so much fullness they Would have greatly improved the really excellent time which was made. All of the. riders bestrode the ordinary masculine wheel and assumed the regulation "scorching Miss Keys sprang to the front almost as 'soon as tin start was made and the first mile was finished with her still in tin- lead but the rest were all well up with tVie exception of Miss Van Sleek, who steadily lost ground until she was a mile in the rear of the leaders at the end of the fourth mile and after pluckily pedalling once more around the track she retired. The second mile was finished with the riders well together, with the exception of Mrs. Herring, who begin to lag.

At the end of the third mile Miss Keys had resigned first place to Miss Staple, with Miss third ami Mrs. Mnnz, Miss Brown and Mrs. Dukelow well up in the order named. At the fifth mile Miss Keys again took the lead by a few feet, and was closely followed by Miss Staple and Mrs. Muntz.

From this point on it was a very pretty race of a processional nature between the three loaders, with Misses Baker anil Brown putting up a good bluff several hundred yards in the rear, and Mrs. Dukelow and Herring practically oit of it, although still riding pluckily. There was small change in the relative position of the riders until the end of the fifteenth mile when Miss Keys began to draw away from the two closest contestants, and continued to increase her lead until she had the race well in hand, and it became a race for second honors between Mrs. Muntz and Mis Staple, and the result was watched with keenest interest. Miss Staple retained a slight lead, however, and by a pretty burst of speed in the last mile she increased it to nearly 200 yards, finishing about the same distance behind the winner.

The only mishap was caused by the crowd on the track closing in on the winner as she passed under the wire and upsetting her wheel, but she sustained no injuries. Miss Baker was somewhat indisposed after leaving the track, but was soon doctored up and the remainder of the contestants appeared to be iu excellent condition. Miss Keys, the winner, drew a drab skirt over her knickerbockers and there was nothing left in her appearance to distinguish her from the hundreds of other whcelwomon on the grounds. The three prize winners were the only ones to accomplish the entire 25 miles. Miss Brown went 24 miles, Mrs.

Herring 22. Miss Baker 10, Mrs. Dukelow 17, and Miss Van Sleek 5. Miss Keys acquires the title of champion amateur female rider of Western New York, and is the winner of a valuable diamond ring. She has been riding but about nine weeks, will be 10 years old in April next and resides at No.

47S State street. She bestrode a crimson rim bicycle, with a 71 1-2 inch gear and weighing 17 1-2 pounds. Miss Starde is 18 years old and lives at No. 157 Saxton street. She has been riding but a few weeks, and was highly elated at the result of the contest as she was afflicted with a sore knee caused by overriding, and for the last seven miies of the race she suffered witli such a severe cramp that she had to be lifted from her wheel at the finish.

She did not anticipate securing a place when she started, but did so simply because she had entered. She rode a OS-inch geared machine which weighed twenty-one pounds. Pier share of the spoils was a gold medal. Mrs. Muntz, winner of the third prize is a young matron, with a child a few weeks of age.

She resides on Lowell street and is the winner of a pair of opera glasses. The referee of the event was James Mc-Auley nnd he filled his position to the satisfaction of all. as did also Fred Vokes, the official scorer. The time made was remarkably even. The first ten miles was done in 30:03, the twenty in 1:14 and the twenty-five in 1:32:37.

The miles were reeled off as fol But Mr. Joel Wants the Peace Kept on His Street. P. C. Joel, a pawnbroker on East Main street, was at the police station yesterday to make application for warrants for the arrest of a large number of young fellows, who, he said, had assaulted him.

Last Wednesday evening, as he states, he was coining home when a crowd of the frequenters of that neighliorhood threw a large quantity of sones at him, struck him, and finally becoming bolder, they seized upon him and threatened to throw him under the wheels of a street car. Mr. Joel was instrumental in the arrest of Keneth She, the lad who was recently brought up on a charge of disorderly conduct. The report has been circulated that Mr. Joel was intending to play the role of a seconil Dr.

l'arkhnrst in certain parts of South Clinton street. As with other reformers, the efforts of the innovator were not received with favor, and hence this outbreak. Mr. Joel says that he is not intimately connected with any movement for the improvement of the morals in his neighborhood, and further affirms that the outbreak is on the part of lads between the ages of 10 and 25. HOFFMAN CONVICTED.

He Stole Carpenters Tools and Sold Them. Frank Hoffman was convicted in police court yestenlny morning of stealing tools from Lavinis Latyne valued at $4. and was sentenced to the penitentiary for three months. Detective O'Brien was The officer detailed uon the case. He worked the matter up in a systematic manner and found part of the articles stolen at a Front street strre.

The dealer identified Hoffman as the man who had sold hini the goods, and he said that Hoffman had appeared then I so frequently with tools to sell that he had become and had refused to buy any more of him. Hoffman denied the charge, and said that he owned the tools that he had sold, as ho had himself been a carpenter. He declared tinder oath that he had stolen the goods but. notwithstanding this, sentence was imposed. Hurt at the Picnic.

Members of the trades unions rallied quite generally Inst night to the assistance of the bakers' unions in the demonstration in favor of the use of the union label on bread. It is estimated that fully 2,000 members of the unions turned out in the parade, which pot under way about and covered the following extraordinarily Ion line of march: From city building.

Transparencies carried in the procession read as follows: "An injury to one is an injury to all." "Patronize only home products bearing the label." "In unity is strength. United we stand. Divided we fall." "We wonder if this is unconstitutional." "Friends, look for the label." "We fight for justice. Will you assist "A fair day's pay for a fair day's work." There were many others of a similar nature, and also calling the attention of the public to the various other trade union label. It was 9:30 o'clock before the parade was dismissed and an assemblage of about 1,000 men gathered in the city hall to listen to an nddress from Henry Weiss-man, of New York, the general secretary of the Bakers' International Union, who arrived in the city yesterday afternoon and later walked in the parade with the members of the local union.

Marshal Curran called the meeting to order and named James Burke, president of the Trades Assembly, as the president of the meeting. Mr. Burke was received with applause and after he had expressed his thanks and briefly stated the objects of the meeting the following named secretaries were ehosen: John Kliuck, Bakers' Union, No. SO; Samuel Hoffman, Local Union of Garment Workers, No. 111.

and Richard Curran of Iron Molders' Union, No. 11. Chairman Burke introduced the prin cipal speaker of the evening, who is a fluent and pleasing speaker, with a slight German accent. He said, in part: "This is a splendid demonstration of the organized workingmen of Rochester, and I congratulate you on this example of intelligence, manhood and demonstration of the solidarity of the organized workers of the city. I understand that it has been gotten up within a very few days, not by the Trades Assembly, but by the bakers' unions, who have called upon their fellows in other (trades to assist theni.

I take this as a sign of the revival of the labor movement, not alone in Rochester, but of the entire country. It means more than a demand for the union label, and a request for shorter hours and better conditions. "There is an awakening going on; the scales are dropping from the eyes of men, and the time will come when labor will speak with such a mighty voice that representative politicians will not alone be compelled to grant laws ameliorating the condition of labor, but pass laws which will strike at the core of this question. Fifteen years ago one advocating independent political action by the workingmen would be greeted as one voicing something foreign and socialistic. "The spirit which actuates the men here to-night is the true American spirit, an equality of opportunity.

An opportunity to labor and to receive a fair compensation therefor. The same spirit 110 years ago gave birth to the immortal declaration of independence, which guarantees to all citizens equal rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. These rights are practically denied to half a million persons at present, lecause they are unable to secure the opportunity to labor. Ninety-five out of every 100 are being bought daily in the wage market at the lowest possible rates, and are accorded in wages but one-fifth of the wealth they create. Is it any wonder that as long as the great mass of the people do not receive back a sufficient nmount of the wealth they create to properly support themselves, that wheat falls from $1.50 to 40 cents per bushel for want of purchasers, and that the farmer, the backbone of the nation, becomes bankrupt? "The great question of the trades nnion comes in here.

We demand that those who do work shall work less hours so that those who have no work may be given an opportunity. There is also an ambition by shortening the hours of labor to allow the worker to secure a higher intelligence. When we ask the citizens to patronize the bakers' label it is in line with these high ideals. The union label stands for fair conditions. The man who works in a nonunion shop, consciously or unconsciously, is contributing to the enslavement of labor." The speaker closed his remarks by refuting the statement that the bakers' label is atlixed to the bread With human saliva, and explained that it was caused to adhere to the loaves in a perfectly cleanly manner.

June 20. P.y a magnificent spurt in the eighth to-day, Rochester pulled out of the lire, and for the second time defeated Wilkesbarre handily. The game was marked by the brisk lidding of the visitors and by their timely batting, while Wilkesbarre only hit Baldwin at all freely in two innings. Keenan pitched for Wilkesbarre, and did well except at each end of the game when he was hit hard and often. Singles by O'Brien nnd Lush in the first ami two errors by Lytic gave Rochester two runs.

Breckenridge and O'Brien singled in the next, anil were scored by Daly's fine homer over Griffin's head, one of the longest straight drives ever seen on the field. After that Keenan was very effective until the eighth, Sweeney getting a single in the third ami Lush one in the seventh. The Babies led with two singles in the first, but gonl pitching prevented a score. In the second Digging hit for two bags, and scored on Smith's single. Shannon's triple and Earl's homer in the third counted two more.

Wilkesbarre took the lead in the fifth by a batting streak. Betts's double and singles by Earl. Griffin and Diggins sending in three runs, another ruif in the sixth on Lytle's single and Sweeney's error advanced the Babies further and made the cranks hopeful, but it was short lived. Rochester went in to win in the eighth. Sweeney's single and Whitehead, who up to that time had been doing nothing with the stick, nipped out a clean four bagger, while O'Brien, Daly and Lush followed with singles, the lot netting four runs, which was quite enough, as the Babies could score but one in the ninth.

Whitehead showed up stronger at third to-day, while Tighe continued his good work at second. Sweeney made some pretty stops at short. Score: WILKESBARRK. A. It.

Providence, R. June 20. Two games were played here to-day with the Bisons. Iu the first game Providence batted Vick-ery steadily and with daring base running piled up a big lead. The Ruffalos were unable to bat Lovett's delivery out of reach of the fielders behind him, who were giving brilliant support.

Five innings of the second game were played when the Buffalos quit playing, declaring they hnd to catch a train. No agreement had been made 011 such a course because the visitors were not forced to leave to make connections for a schedulM game. They were hurrying to get receipts of a S'inday game at bonne. The umpire declared the game forfeited to Providence by a score of 9 to 0. In the five innings played only fifteen lows: 3:40.
