PIckups From The Diamond.

No one seems able to stem the onward
rush of the Hartford team Some idea of
their strength may be gained from the
fact that they beat the Rowdies two
games yesterday and used only one pitch
er TO do the trick.
They clinched their grip on second place
and are now only lS points behind Provi-
dence in first.
Flaherty was batted for eight hits in
the first game and allowed the Rowdies
only three in the second.

wonderfully of late. His rest evidently
did him a world of good.
Rochester and Hartford double up a
gain today and more sport is sure to re-
suit. Rochester may try TO win back the
two games lost, but Shindle evidently has
something up his sleeve when he causes
Patsy Flaherty to. pitch two games in one
day.
II Rochester won the first game II is
doubtful II they would get the second as
the Connecticut have Donovan to fall
back on and big BIZ seems to be a
winner every time. IL the Rowdies get
the two games they will probably win
one from Donovan.

only five hits In nine innings yesterday

Mrs. j. j. Monahan. met her death late
yesterday afternoon. by falling from the
attic window OF her home at lls Took

The little ones mother was cleaning
the back stairs of the upper tenement
when the fatality took place. The little
girl was playing about and for a moment
or two escaped her mothers attention
She made her way to the attic room
above. There was a chair standing at the
window and IL seems as though the child
must have stood upon this and leaned out

IL is supposed that in so doing she lost
her balance and fell. She struck on an

floor, and then bounding off fell heavily
