The Best of the Local Hall Players
 Wanted by Outside Clubs.
 In conversation with DEMOCRAT re- porter this morning Roger Connor said that if Waterbury intended to be in the state league it beloved base base ball enthu- siasts to get a move on them. If it was the intention to have. only local players that move should be made at once. AL ready several of the best local players have signed or are about to sign with ether clubs throughout the country. Managers of out of town teams are writing here daily in search of players and unless some hustlinG local manager begins work at once he will have poor mater al to start with. Connor be- lieves that local man can manage the home team, and that Waterbury possesses enough base ball players to hold the win ming card. Many of the boys are willing to play at home rather than go among strangers The sports are advised to get together at once and select some hustler of good executive ability. ~Lo will devote his time to the promotion of base ball. It only needs a move in that direction to cause base ball enthusiasm. which nt present k lying dormant. to awaken.

The Dry House of the New Haven Clock
 Works Burned.
 At $40 o'clock last evening an alarm was rung in from the private box of the New Haven Clock Go, a fire had started in the drying rooms situated in a building sepa- rate from the main building. Soon after the first alarm was turned in another was sent in calling out seven engines, a chem. ical and two trucks. When the dremen ar- rived the whole building was in flames.
 The building was situated in place that made it difficult for the fremen to get al the fire. There were 10000 feet of sea- soned lumber stored in the dry house and this was destroyed. The officers of the company estimate the loss at $25, 900.

 It is not known how the fire origi- mated. but it is supposed to have started from a kiln.
