ANOTHER POSTPONED GAME.

ON ACCOUNT OF WET WEATHER. The Sheltons came to town last Sat- urday prepared to play the game as otherwise, for at 2 o'clock it began to rain and continued all the after noon. In contrast with the treat ment accorded the Newtown team by WOodbury management (when in the game in that town with NewtOwn more than five innings were played and which under the rules governing the game was in reality a game and the Newtown team thereby entitled to their guarantee money as per previ ous agreement), the Newtown mana ger, honorable as he has been through out the season in all business dealings morally or legally bound to pay the Sheltons the money guaranteed, in as much as not ball had been pitched or batted or an inning played, nevertheless, as man, stepped forward and paid the Shell the shelton treasurer's actual expenses. It is such treatment accorded visiting teams that has gained for the manager of the New town team the reputation of being one of the squarest of managers of amateur teams in the sSe e Ss he ns o v tSs tSe%: on the s ground ss shas i've % taninss ald made him the object of much criticism in this section. The Newtown players are glad to l learn that Woodbury is yet playing ball qf benefit of the Honorable MT Cowles Of Hotch- kissville it may be stated that the manager of the Newtown team has about decided to challenge the Woodbury team to play game at the Newtown Fair Grounds on Saturday. pired by trustworthy, disinterested and i'm partial umpire to be chosen from among the best that can be procured either in Bridge port or New Haven. It is to be hoped that WOOdbury will accept and not squeal as they did at paying the guarantee money they owe, and if they decide to play let the best team win and there will be found no complaint coming on the part of Newtown.
 Next Saturday, August 31, at 33O p. m., the Merrimac Athletic clubs team of Waterbury will cross bats with the Newtown's and a sharp, we'll played and interesting game no will be present to witness the game.
 On Monday next. Labor day, the Newtowns cross bats with the Sacred Hearts of Bridge port The game will be played at p. m. sharp. The Sacred Hearts, next the Grapho- phones, are considered one of the strongest amateur teams that Bridgeport can boast of, and it has some good ones. It will without doubt be a close and exciting game and as Monday is holiday everyone will no doubt turn out to see the game, weather permitting.

Entrance to the house was effected by a rear door which Mrs Tucker had been un- able to lock for a few days owing to the rains. The burglars also helped themselves to what eatables they could find.
