 It was fun to see yesterdays game with Easton, for the New Ravens hit the ball hard all through the game. The score was 16 to in favor of the home team. Nine hundred people paid to sec the game, and they had plenty of chances to applaud the fine fielding by the New Ravens, some of which was phenomenal. Schoeneck greatly 1 amused everybody, and besides, made four safe hits out of five times to the bat. His slide to the plate in one inning elicited great laughter and applause. He is already great favorite and saved several wild throws. Sworback was in the box for the New Hs- vens, and he certainly did himself credit. But four hits were made off him, two of them being of the scratch order. He gave ! but two men their bases on balls and hit one l with the ball, but ss is always the case with him, two of these scored. Sworback is very ! unfortunate in this respect. One of the agreeable features of each game
 
 Burdock's direction. Each player tries for 8 run, and not to increase his individual aver ane. Galligan should be given credit for | sacrificing himself when two men were on bases.
 Tommy Corooran made two phenominal 1 stops at short, one being running pickup of a hit that nobody supposed he would get. Cahill did finely at third.
 l Lally again distinguished himself by heavy hitting. He has his eye on the ball just now. New Haven didn't get run in the first in. ming, although Cahill made 8 safe hit, stole I second and got to third on 8 wild pitch.
 Hines was the drst man to the bat. Swor- back fooled him on an out curve and he hit l the ball to Schoeneck. -
 The best Turner could do was to hit the fbRn in front of the plate, but Sworback's s accurate throw retired him. Earle sent the ball to Burdock and the side went out. New Haven should not have had run in the second, but Trask fumbled O'Rourke's hit and threw wild, ORourke taking second. Galligan sacrificed. and O'Rourke scored on wild pitch, Sullivan throwing the ball at the grand stand. Easton was easily retired.
 New Haven did some pretty work in the third. Brady got first on balls and stole sec- ond. Cahill was also given his base on balls Burdock sent the ball whizzing at Trask. l Brady did some fine sprinting, and after gaining third made dash for home. Trask had thrown to Earle, retiring Burdock. He | GQI0W HOn0 10 OH DEAuy, ana MOOr6 naO him easily, but Brady foiled him, to the great delight of the crowd, by sliding clear around him. Moore didn't think he would slide, and when he put out his hand to touch l Brady the latter was the other side of him laughing to himself.
 Sharp fielding retired the Eastons easily ir the third. Sullivan got first on balls l Moore sent short fly into center field whicE
 Lally could not reach. Sullivan, seeing that
 the ball was not caught. started for second Brady, by an Accurate throw, put him out

 New Haven made things merry in tn, ! fourth. O'Rourke sent ball whizzing pas Foulkrod, and Galligan followed with clea, one into right field. O'Rourke scored on
 wild pitch, and Galligan tried to get hom but was put out. Corcoran got first base ol

 Cahill made his second safe hit and Brad,
 reached home by making headlong slide. The last of the fourth was notable for
 long running catch by Sworbach of foul
 and phenomenal pickup of hotly driver
 ball near second hase by Tommy Oorcoran New Haven 6, Easton o. The home team didn't stop, but continued to make runs in the fifth inning. Ten mel
 came to the bat. Lally was the first to star
 the ball rolling. A safe hit just suited him l O'Rourke got his base on balls. Galligal hit to Trask, but Hines was not on his base and O'Rourke was not forced out. In try
 ing to catch Galligan at first, Hines threv
 wild and Lally scored. Tommy CorcoraI made a ecratch hit because Hines got rattlet
 out running to third or Corcorau at first
 The bases were now filled. Schoenecl caught a nice one on his bat and dropped l ! the ball over the second baseman's head O'Rourke and Galligan scoring.
 How the people did shout. It was brett, : hitting, wasn't it?
 Sworback got his base on balls, whiot 3 again filled the bases. Brady sacrificed him
 self to Hines, and Corcoran scored. Schoe
 neck cut off about twenty feet from thirt 7 base and made long, headlong slide to tn I plate, but he was declared out. You should have been there when Schoeneok did this fea
 No one supposed as big man as Schoenecl would ever think of sliding. Sworback tool
 second on the play. Cahill struck out, bu . I Moore let the balls pass him. Cahill flew t first and dashed for second. Moore threv poorly to Hines, and OF this play Sworbacl ! was not asleep but was running all tn
