 Team.
 Galliaan, who played left field for the | New Havens last season for quite while has signed with the Wilmington team, ,and played with Wilmington in the first game against New Haven on Wednesday. He really saved the team. for had it not been for his mar vellous running catches New Haven would have won hands down. He made four catches that could not have been bettered by any fielder in the country. He fell into the local cranks, favor at once, and will un. doubtedly be . fixture here during the pres. ent season.
 Good work New Haven. Do 1t again this afternoon.
 The public ought to turn out we'll to greet the home team on It's own grounds for the first time this afternoon in a league game.
 Jack Corcoran, our old third baseman, is explaining the local team and playing in the right garden. Jack is as lazy as ever when getting after the ball, but Is doing fair work with the stick. He nearly turned inside out with joy when he downed his old team Wed- nesday, and immediately orowed for three straight from the Nutmegs, but Friday night found Captain Corcoran in no amiable frame of mind.
 Dan Lally surprised himself and the rest of the New Ravens Wednesday. He dropped
 Jimmy Kelly tells funny incident that happened in one of the games in the series
 bstween Worcester and Wilmington: tav oSk k6oh hot ool had yvooV nf third base. Smith was pitching for Wilmington. Cudworth, the captain of the Worcssteas, was on the coach line at third
 base coaching the runner, when "Cuddy" suddenly said to Smith, "Say, isn't that ball rippeda Let me see iti" Smith obligingly threw the ball to him, but Cudworth jumped out of the way of the ball and 1t went into and scored. It was @ sharp trick and shows that Worcester is not without good man at the helm. The outfeld of the New Haven team seems to be a little loose at present but when the team commences tho home games the players will probably be in shape. The New Haven team ie lacking in one thing and that is sacrifice hitting. New Haven could have won Wednesdays game hands down If the players had sacrificed in-
 stead of trying to lose the ball. "Big Lon" Schoeneok is good man to ! nave RG the DAt III D plucu uOWaOayS. ho IS hitting the ball hard and generally cracks out single with men on bases. The whole party left Wilmington last | night and will be ready to open up the
 season this afternoon at home with the Capi- l tai City boys.
 | Another incident of the Worcester series | shows what dub players the Wilmingtons | are. Hasney hit fly into left field. He reached first, and Champion, the Worcester's | first baseman, said to him: "Hard luck, old man, hard luck" Hasney never looked at the ball, bnt turned around and walked to
 the bench. The ball, however, had dropped l safe and Kennedy picked it up and threw 1t l to first and put Hasney out. Still New Ha. ven lost to such team.
 James Kelly, the umpire, had 2 narrow es- cape here Tuesday. He ran out in the street to stop runaway and slipped under the
 horso. One of tho wheels ran over his legs, severely bruising that member. Outside of . little lamensss he is all right. Horner seems to be pitching in hard luck. He pitched two winning games on the trip but they have been lost by foolishness. Jack is not using his best ball either but Is re- serving 1t for warmer weather. "Fog Horn" Laumau is an appropriate name for right fielder. He is coaching way will derive much amusement from his music. al voice.
 Mahoney will umpire the opening game on Saturday in New Haven.
 The players ought to get big send off in the opening game to-day, as they have done as well as any of them.
