g The game yesterday afternoon between
the New Haven and Lebanon clubs of the
Eastern association was one of the pretti-
est exhibitions of ball playing seen in this
city this season. The playing of both
teams was marked by an abundance Of
snap and ginger which was much appreci-
ated by the small number of spectators
present. It was one of those hustling
games which are the cause of 80 much real
pleasure to lovers Of the game and, with
the exception of the first Buffalo game,
was the snappiest game played on the local
grounds since the clubs return from It's
trip. The game yesterday was nearly err
rorless, but one error being made by both
teams, and that an excusable muff of a
high fly by Sales, who misjudged it and
ran in too far for 1t, barely touching it
with the tips. of his fingers. The contest
abounded in notably good plays, in which
Lally, Doyle, Cross and Conroy partici-

catches, while Conroy, for the visitors, &C
cepted eleven chances at second base with
out an error.

concede, however, that the race will be q

The Harvard crew will probably be
made mn "a follows:

As will be seen from the above, the
Harvard crew averages nearly four
pounds lighter than Yale.
When Captain Cook was spoken to by q
COURIER representative this afternoon in
regard to the alleged record of 20:25 (for
four miles, which some New Haven men
claimed the Yale crew made recently, he
replied that the men timed the crew for
only 81 miles, and that Mr.. Cook was in
the launch on that same afternoon, hold
ing watch on the crew, and that they
made the full four miles in little over
twenty three minutes, and it is easy to see
where that record came from. The cap
said that, although the men were all will
ing, honest workers, they lacked the
snap which is so necessary
for winning crew, but
still there would be good chance for
them to improve in the next ten days be-
fore the race. The newspapers, he added,
had misrepresented the true standing of
the crew; that because there was two
hundred pound man in the boat made no
difference. No one man, nor two, for that
matter could win race-it must be the
whole eight together. The Yale crew was
new one, while most of the Harvard men
rowed in the Varsity boat last year. Al
together Yale had a pretty hard row to
hoe, and it wasn't out of the woods now
by any means.
The Yale freshmen crew arrived at New
London last night and proceeded at once
to their quarters, near the Varsity at
Gales Ferry. The following is probably
the crew which will represent the class at
London:

Three Master-Caught In East Ha-

The schooner a. d. Hanscom launched
three years ago from Hanscom's yard, now
in port, will probably lie off here one trip
when she brings her next cargo Of coal. to
have steam hosting machinery put in.
This will cost about $4,000. Captain
Hanscom says that vessel as large as the
II. H. $1,000 tons capacity-should
have this machinery to hoist anchors and
sails. Since the Hanscom has been run
ming there has been difficulty in keeping
the men because of the hard work in hand
ling the big sails; but this will be obviated
when steam power is put in.
On his new three master, Captain Hans
com is putting in the blocks for the center
board box. The work is going forward
on this little vessel-little in comparison
| to the big four masters, but bigger than
| most of the ships of former days.

phia, ia discharging cargo of coal at

With temperature of 80 degrees in tn

Haven, yesterday. But these hot days
those who live east of GAINESVILLE bridge
reside in the coolest part of the city. Al
vegetation is suffering for the want of rail
and it must come pretty soon to be of ser
wee. Already the hay crop Is badl.
pinched, and it is not likely to yield one
third the crop that was cut last year. L
many fields the hot sun has already ripene'
the grass which is ready to be cut.
