Waterbury Democrat., 1900-12-15
NATIONAL LEAGUE STANDING.
Now, Hartford, will You be good.

Now, Hartford, will you be good.
 The crowd laughed at Schiffer, tue boy wonder,' as they saw how easily Tommy Holderness toyed with him.
 Not foul called in as fast q game as that was is a pretty good record even if the writers in the state say that Tommy Holderness is tee rough.
 Although pumped out lcng before the game ended, Johnny Griffin whirled around the rink and caged balls with all the old time skill that once made hiln the king Of the rushers.
 Waterbury, yo- did well fast night. and if you can keep up that kind of work you will earn the gratitude and respect of every fan i'll the city. That was polo playing of the kind that en- thuSeS.
 "Daly, you are all right was heard rom all parts of the rink last night, and to tell the truth the lad never did do better work than that of last even ing. He missed but few and those were too swift to catch on to.
 Jnst to show the work of tho teams i'll inc three periods. Starllie had 17 stops in the first and Fox 10. In the second Starkie had 10 and Fox 21. In the third Starkie had 13 and Fox 13.
 
 Harry Starke is growing too fat to be active in front of the cage, and we are just as well satisfied that we have our Fox in place of him. This same Fox played a phenomenal game, ana he is the poSsessOr of q pretty level head.
 Daily lost young Schiffer last night wien it came to getting to the bail and he did the same thing in making goals also. Evidently the boy wonder must have worn an electric belt in his other games, for he proved no wonder last night.
 Jean went through the punches last night just as easy as the Boers went i through the English yesterday It made no difference to him who stood in the way, and if d Waterbury player was locked in the embrace of a Hart foId man, both went down together. It was funny to see Jean push | Wodtke and Main away from him in several stages of the game. Once | Jeans open hand went under the Dutchman's chin and Wodtke looked l ugly, but, to the surprise of those who saw it, he did not ask the referee to call q foul =t
 Of all the finishes that were ever | written up 1n history, the one or lust night in New Haven ought to be given prominence. The league leaders who have been laughing at the Meriden | team were beaten out of their boots and that, too, with seven goals leading when the last period started. Shame, New Haven.
 Little Schiller more than made up for the slowness of his compatriots. He made but few misses at cover point and the way in which he buckled into the big men was worth seeing. He was too much for Holderness and he took the ball away from every man on the Waterbury team.-Hartford Cour. ant. The Waterbury men have oul sympathy We would plead with 'lit tie Schiffer'' to spare them.-Pawtuck ct Times. And the pleadings were thrown out by the jury of five.
 Tom Cotter sat in the grand balcony last night and watched his pets gt down in defeat. It was funny te watch the expressions on the big chiefs face. A look of sadness OCT spread his countenance as he saw his fnvorites olltplayed in the first two periods. When his men began tc crowd in goals in the last period the sadness changed to happiness ant broad smiles of satisfaction illuminet his brow. Again there was a change and this time the change remained t the end. as Waterbury again forged away in front. That sad smile ma, yet be seen. for the big fellow count ed on winning.
