New Haven Wins, and from Ieriden
 Best Game Seen Here This Season.
 Played on a Slippery Floor.
 The New Haven players have changed their mascot. They walked away with Meriden last night by a score of to 3. The floor on the rink last night was very slippery and the players made some very graceful falls.
 The Meriden players wielded their hook eys as strongly as they could, but to no avail. Leydon was chinning the young sters in the audience. They were with him, however, and advised him and Gun ningham to visit the barber.
 The Meriden team started the gait by making the first goal in a short time, Dun ming caging on drive. The next goal was won by New Haven in shorter time, New combe passing to Wodtke, who caged. The next goal was won by New Haven after a hard fight. Meriden had the ball caged during this goal, but it came out. The next goal was won by Meriden by chance drive by Cunningham. A few seconds play closed the half.
 The score was now even and each side played to win. Meriden caged the ball but it came out. Whiting was taking it up the rink. Leydon tried to block him but was thrown on his back so violently as to make his nose bleed, and he left the floor little while in order to stop the flow of blood.
 Porter, the new man who was being tried at center, had not showed up very well, and W. Whiting took his place. Ley don came back and play resumed. The New Haven team seemed to have new life, for they kept Curley and Null Smith dancing. Curley rushed out once and saved a sure goal by falling on the ball. The goal was soon made, however, by Wodtke. The next two goals were caged in short order, closing New Haven's grip on the game.
 The playing of the Meriden, team was superb, everyone on the team passing like clockwork. Cunning and Cunningham, especially, played very strong aggressive game.
 Of the playing of the New Haven team it is enough to say that last nights game was the best that has been put up by the team this year. W. Whiting will in ell probability be retained at center.
 The makeup of the teams was as fol-

A Pleasant Visit.

MT. James Wild of Stockport, Columbia county, New York, concluded yesterday 8 very pleasant visit to this city as the guest of his brother, MT. Joseph Wild, of Park street. Though four score years of age he looks not whit older than he did when he visited New Haven ten years ago. One of the many pleasant features of his stay here was visit to see the workings and equip ment of our New Haven fire department, which excited his interest keenly, and called forth hearty expressions of admiIa- tion and commendation, his verdict being that the department is unsurpassed. He was also shown about the police building and viewed it's fine equipment for the city's police service. The visitor, hearing of the Tenth ward caucus, eagerly ac- cepted an invitation to attend, and as spectator viewed the proceedings with the keen and appreciative interest of vet eran, having been for many years an &C., tive, campaign worker and prominent public official in his section, location dear to the hearts of some of our pisca- torial artists, owing to the good angling they have enjoyed there under his guid- anee and his genial hospitality.
