Notes.

Hartford will play again to morrow.
 Schoenech is hitting the horsehide out of sight.
 Keep up tine good work, boys, and make it two straight to-day.
 We'll, oranks, what is the matter with naming New Haven for one of the leadersa
 Quite different score than the first one that was played year ago between these two teSms.
 There is no use in talking, Connie Doyle is putting the ball across the diamond to first in elegant shape.
 Forster, the Hartford shortstop, is always guyed unmercifully by the local cranks whenever he plays in New Haven.
 Doran will probably not do much pitching this week. Gilliland will have a chance to show what he can do in the meantime.
 Lauman captured liner from Lynch's bat in first inning yesterday, which set the cranks yelling with glee. It was cuckoo.
 Local enthusiasts will have chance to see some A No. 1 ball playing this week on the Howard avenue grounds. Worcester always puts up good ball.
 Lally used better headwork in batting Saturday than he did in any game while on the trip. He sacrificed prettily and hit the ball safe at the right time.
 People who want to see great game of ball should not fail to visit the Howard ave- nue grounds tomorrow. The two teams are bitter rivals and there will bs heaps of sport.
 Jack Horner will journey to Hartford this afternoon, minus the larger half of his once down the Capital City players with his squib shoots.
 The games will hereafter be called at 4 o'clock instead of 3:30. It is light late enough to call the game at that hour and the extra half hour will help number of people in getting to the grounds.
 The Sporting Life contained an article some time ago in which the writer comment ing on the first Hartford-New Haven game expresses himself thus: "Alas, alas, dread the day when we shall meet. Evidently hie days of dread are over.
 Doran said yesterday that in the last two innings in the game with Hartford Saturday his arm was so sore that he could hardly put l sidering the work he has done lately, and the enthusiasts no doubt appreciate 1t. Lawson, the released Wilmington pitcher, | who has been signed by the Boston Nation. al league team, proved to be an easy march | for the New Haven boys in the second Will mington game. They pounded him over the field, and in the fifth inning Cox was sub stituted.
 l Manager Burnham asked Petit while or l the trip what was the reason of his falling | off in batting this season. "Oh, never commence to hit the ball until May l." re. piled Pettit, and he started the ball rolling May in the second Wilmington game to the tune of three hits.
 When Schoeneck stepped to the plate fo, the fourth time Saturday Pagan eyed him from hoad to foot. Big Lon" had smashed the ball into left garden for two bags the time before and the 'south paw" twerler had made up his mind to fool him this time. Fla. gan tied himself up in knot, united him- self and sent allow one across the plate on line "Bif! kuloo;" went the bat against the ball and Pagan nearly turned himself inside out trying to get out of the way of it. The ball escaped him by a hair and went safe into center field.
 Manager Burnham laid off Mckee Saturday and played Brady in left What it was donl for MT. Burnham probably knows, as he usel his own judgment in all things of that kind Lauman, the new man, has shown up wei in right field and will probably be kept there Lally is, of course, all right at center, and i remains to be seen who is to be dropped Four good fielders are too many for an At lantio association team and someone Is got tt go. One thing is sure, thought that Mckee is the beet run getter on the team, and ha. always made himself valuable as a bal player wherever he has played. Thi is the first time that he has ever been laie of for poor playing, and let us see what hi, poor playing has been. In tho nine game that he took part in on the trip he hit safely six times. not once, as one evening paper generously credits him with. But that, nev ertheless, is very poor stick work. In al the times at the bat he never struck out ono and that shows what kind of an eye he has He stole nine bases and reached first base o, balls eight times, which Is good, clever work But there is no need of fearing releases a present, for every man will have chance tt show what he can do and the best men will be kept. Burnham is getting the best tean that he can and intends to make his team a strong as possible.
