NEW HAVEN 4, WATERBURY 2.
A Large Crowd See the New Haven Team Defeat the Waterbury Boys A Fine Game.

Large Crowd See the New Haven Team Defeat the Waterbury Boys A Fine Game.
 The game of ball bstween the New Ha. ven and Waterbury clubs yesterday after noon was played under most suspicious circumstances, the weather being fne and an unusually large crowd present. The grand stand was full, the bleschers packed and nearly all the available standing room occupied. The game was pronounced by many the finest played in New Haven this season. The New Ravens were first to bat and Doherty set the game going by a fine fly to right field, which was pulled in by Gerraghty. This was the only good hit made by New Haven in the first, and no one on either eide reached frs. base.
 This was followed in the second by Q found ths ball and succeeded in pulling two men over home plate. MackeY, hay ing reached first on safe hit and stolen second, was brought in by Gerrsghty on 8 two base hit. After Gerraghty brought in his score Waterbury was retired with two men on bases.
 New Haven followed this in the third with one run, while Waterbury failed to score. In the fourth Thiesen, the frst man to the bat, lined beauty over into Long Island sound and trotted around home amid the cheers of the crowd. Mo- Cam hit safely but was unable to score. Neither side succeeded in scoring again until the sev enth, when Collins made fine two bsgger, stols third and came home on Norton's fly to left field. This was the last run made by Waterbury. In the eighth New Haven made spurt. Lyons got to first on hot grounder to right, and was followed by Dohsrty with daisy cutter to osnter. Both were brought in by McKee's two-bagger. Neither side tallied again, although several men were left on bases.
 In the fourth inning McCann took Cor coran's place in the box, but was easily hit, iu fact both teams seemed to find the ball all right, and the game was psrticu- larly interesting in the fielding, Garrsghty of Waterbury putting up an especially fine game in right field.
 Following is the score:

 Overheard.

Overheard.

Was Only a Canard.

About 6 o'clock last evening story was circulated about the center to the effect that the Sea View hotel at Ssvin Rock was in flames and rapidly being consumed. This 1umor had the effect of making busi- ness good on the Winchester avenue road and a number of people piled on the cars, all intent upon seeing the conhsgration. In this, however, they were disappointed, as upon their arrival at the Rock there was not the slightest sign of even a small blaze. It was ssoertained that about o'clock the West Haven fire department was called to the Sea View hotel by false alarm of fire, and to this is attributed the story current upon the streets. While on it's way to the fire the king bolt on the Graham hose broke, but no other damage was done.

tin E Twitchell, D. D.
 At exactly 5:3O o'clock the exercises were brought to close by the firing of the national salute. Forty-four times, one for each of the states in the union, the cannon bslched forth its noisy report, uu- der the direction of the members of Nathan Hale Camp, No. 1, Sons of Veter- ans, and the unveiling exercises of the memorial tablets on the Soldiers monu- ment at East Rock park had become q matter of history.
 The large crowd quickly and quietly dis perssd and wended their several ways homewa1d. Notwithstanding the large throng present there was not the slightest disorder or any incident to mar the general enjoyment of the occasion. The police ar engagements were perfect and reflected great credit upon the department. Six teen patrolmen, three sergesnts, Captain O'Keefe aud Superintendent Smith were stationed upon the rock at various points and remained throughout the exercises.
 THE EXERCISES OF THE MORNING.
 In the forenoon over 1 400 bouquets were received at the headquarters of Ad- miral Foote post, G. A. R., on Chapel street. Of course the greater part of them were of wild flowers gathered from the fields and the woods by the children. But there were many choice fowers. Mrs. O. F. Winchester sent 6 large wagon load of rare out flowers. Mre. SpraRus sent . beautiful basket of flowers for the uu- known dead and also one for John o. Corea of the Seventh regiment, which were intended for the monument at East Rock. The ladies of Henry 0. Merwin corps furnished two special pieces, one for Captain Edwin 8. Hitchcock's grave and one for that of ex-City Surveyor Charles Fowler, and also . very handsome scroll for Henry 0. Aerwin's grave, marked "H. 0. Msrwin post, No. 52, G. A. R ," in blue inmortelles.
 It was very busy scene at tho roems of the Admiral Foote post sll the morning. A long table in the center of the hall held the flowers and many ladies arranged them in bouquets. Those who aided in this work were as follows:
 Mrs. Elmira I. Belden, president Of the corps; Mrs. N. L. Davis, Mrs. Nancy Hew- ell, Mrs. A. Bodwell, Mrs. N. Reynolds, Mrs. Mary Benton, Mrs. Eliza Woodford,

every way way the printing press is the ora
tors ally, for it enables the hearer to
deliberate on the truth that has stirred
him li and to weigh it away from the ora
tors magic influence. Truth is the cor
nerstone Of oratory without that it is a
sounding brass and a tinkling cymbal.''
Here Mr.. Townsend, who believes in
American oratory, as he does in every
thing else American, went ever the list
OF great men whom he had heard. Ig-
noring many of them, Ingersoll said IN
his epigrammatic way "I conce6e the
supreme ability of Beecher,and the great
natural force of Corwin, Webster lacked
sincerity; Phillips was thorn rather
than flower; Clay had all the orators
physical attributes, but lacked thought :;
hossuth, now nearing his end, I regard
as the greatest orator Europe has given
to the Nineteenth Century. A handsome
presence and graceful manner are of
great advantage, particularly where the
speaker is addressing a strange audience
but I think these physical advantages
have been overestimated. Sheridan was
not prepossessine Grafton was understood
awkward and apt to excite ridicule at the
beginning of an address. The same is
true of Curran. Prentiss was boyish and
lame; Corwin dark as an Indian and far
from handsome. And so I might 90
through the list to prove that the fore
most orators have not been handsome
men. But it is conceded that when the
plairest face lit up, with the soul afame,
the homliest of these men looked as if
he we're inspired" ALFRED R. Calhoun
