THE CROWD WAS MAD.

Paid Their Quarters and Couldn't Get Them Back at the Coliseum-Races off.
 There was disappointed crowd of A special Labor day card had been ar ranged for the races, including one be- tween Dick Garfield and George Scho- field, and about 200 paid the admission fee of twenty-five cents. About S:15 it was announced through a megaphone
 that there would be no races as the weather was too threatening. One Clark, who did the announcing, said that all those who were inside could get their money back by going to the box office or they could get ticket for the races which would be run off to- night. The crowd had paid their quar- ters and wanted to see the races but when it was announced that they could get their money back they let it go at that and made for the box office. About twenty did get their money back and the rest had to whistle. Evidently the supply of quarters gave out too sud- denly for the window in the box office shut with slam and there was noth- ing more doing. The man who was next in line said he would wait there until he got his quarter if it took all night and his was the sentiment Of nearly all in line.
 They waited until nine o'clock for the box office to open but it remained shut as tight as an oyster. Finally the crowd gave it up and left the place in disgust, declaring it was skin game" robbery etc. Some of the more determined men who got left flocked about the door of the training quarters in which place it was whis- pered that one of the managers had se- creted himself, and they were strong for taking their moneys worth out Of his hide. Sergt. Doherty and two po- lcemen of the Howard avenue police station made their appearance and told the men that they would be arrested for general breach of the peace unless they got out. This seemed to have Its effect as the people soon broke away.
 The night would have been perfect one for the races as the moon came out about nine o'clock. They will be run tonight at o'clock if nothing happens. l

DIED AT WOODMONT.
Death of Young Clarence Clinton of
 Clintonville.

Death of Young Clarence Clinton of Clintonville.
 A pathetic little story is brought out by the death in Woodmont Thursday night of Clarence Clinton of Clinton vile, Conn, of consumption, aged IA. This little fellow, whose mother had been dead for some time, had been for about year in the care of the Connecticut Children's Aid society at their home in Newington, where he became so i'll that he was taken to the hospital in New Haven, but was not satisfied and pleaded hard to be taken to Woodmont, where he fancied he could catch clans and fish and re- cover his former good health AL though they knew it was useless, the officials granted his request. During the short time that he was at the shore he became favorite with those in charge, and while his little body lay in Fords undertaking rooms, in Bridgeport, the matron of the Wood mont home and some of those from NeWington called to view the remains. Saturday the body was taken to Clin- tonville, where the funeral was held.

Allen of Wood bury and the late James Allen of Beth lehen. In 1849 MT. Allen went to Cali fornia in search of gold, travelling by boat from New York to Nicaragua, and thence across the isthmus. MT. Allen was one of the very few who survived the pestilence and fever and he spent some time in California, meeting with considerable success in the discovery of gold. He afterWard came east and lived for time in Woodbury and later removed to Colorado and for the last thirty years he had lived in Iowa, con- ducting large stock farm with the as- sistance of his two sons.

amused himself by tapping the slaves with his hammer I saw him and ran to safe place and tried my best to warn him by shouting, but it was no use; the keg finally blew up with a loud report, and the poor fellow lin gered in the hospital about two weeks before he died.
 q am even more afraid of these empty -glycerine kegs than I am of the explosive itself or of any other kinds of powder or dynamite. You can always tell when to be careful when the real stuff is around, but if some one happens to leave an empty keg or bar rel in the way you might not know it until you had dropped a crowbar or sledge- hammer into it or tipped it over and then. after you found it out, you would be in no condition to tell any one of your discovery.
 ''The only way to get rid of those empty kegs or barrels is to take them out into an open field and fire pistol at them from safe distance. and even that sometimes is not an undertaking that I would advise a person to try, for I remember case of fellow who

YESTERDAYS BALL GAMES
NEW HAVEN LOSESTWO TO BRISTOL
 AND GIVES THEM 4 BOOST.
Bridgeport, Norwich and Meriden Won
 Twice-Other Games.


 Bristol clinched her chance for the pennant at the expense of the New Haven team yesterday when she beat the locals in two games, the first in Bristol and the second in New Haven Both games were pie for the coming champions, and at no time did Cap tain Canavan's men have chance. This was particularly so in the after noon game at Savin Rock, when they landed all over Deering. The visitors made fourteen hits with total of nine- teen, and coupled with few errors in the early part of the contest, managed to score an even dozen runs. New Ha- ven had trouble in making three. Mock pitched a beautiful game for Bristol having fine control of the ball and plenty of speed. He mixed them up well and as a result New Haven could- n't find him for any great damage. Canavan batted hard for New Haven, while Mock, Francis, Kennedy and Beaumont killed the ball for the Bris- tols. They played the fastest kind of a game in the field and clearly denon- strated that they belong just about where they are in the league standing. Fitzmaurice and Ramon distinguished themselves in the field each pulling down some of the most difficult chances. Fitzmaurice figured In the only double play of the game. In the second in- ming Mock singled and went to second ond Francis hit to right field. Connors then knocked long fly to Fitzmaurice, who shot the ball to O'Brien in time to double up Mock at third. It was a pretty play and Fitzmaurce was heart fly cheered by the large crowd. He was certainly in the game yesterday. Put outs on throws from the outfield were frequent. In the fifth inning OBrien made pretty two-bagger and tried to stretch it into triple. He was thrown out, Sheffler to Berry to Francis. Mock bumped the ball far over the heads of the crowds in right field in the fourth inning and was thrown out at the plate. Braun to Bone to Luchia Another run was shut off at the plate in the eighth inning when Braun nailed Francis, who tried to score from second on Owens single. These plays kept up the excite ment for the big crowd Mock's hit ting was fierce, He made three bag ger, two bagger and two singles, and reached first his other time up on fielder's choice. The attendance was large, about 5000 being inside the en- closure. Caulifower umpired and did good work. Following is the score:

MAILING FORD.

William Sarah was before Judge Judd yesterday morning charged with abuse and assault upon his wife, also with assault upon Harry Coleman, a boarder at the Germania House. Sarah was fined $50 and costs $1244.
 The bicycle races on the East Center street park which were advertised for yesterday proved to be failure as the attendance was too small to warrant the carrying out of the programme. The posters for the races have been about for nearly month, but no one seemed to know anything about who was managing the affair and in conse- quence there was no one to take any stock in the runs.
 The rainfall here during the month of August was 7.64-100 inches. A year ago it was 100.

THIS MAY BE JOHNSON.
Runaway Boy Picked Up in Springfield
 by the Police

hundNdy bOy f,lckeu Op III SpIlHSlelu
 by the Police.
 The Springfield police have young lad that may prove to be Howard A. Johnson, who ran away from his home in this city. Johnson lives at 152 Green wich avenue and ran away to escape an imagined punishment. The police of this city have not heard from Springfield in relation to the lads an- tecedents, but the Springfield Republi- can publishes the following:
 "A twelve-year-old lad, who says his name is James Sullivan. is at the po- lice station, and the police think he is runaw way. Last evening he went into a lodging house on Bridge street, and said he would stay there a week He had no money, but gave the proprietor a silver watch, which the boy thought would pay for his lodging. A little later the proprietor reported the case to the police, and Patrolman Connery took the boy to the station. The boy said he lived at s4 Mill street with his father, Fritz Sullivan, but the police on investigation found that no one by that name lived in that vicinity"

They Look Empty and Harmless, but
 They are Full of Danger.
 Anton Colman, veteran dynamite man, is perhaps one of the oldest of all the old-timers and has been looking af- ter high explosives for the past twenty l five or thirty years. He has been on and in many parts of New England and has had many hairbreadth escapes and exciting adventures. Mr Colman is about seventy years old, and was born in Maine.
 dynamite and the blasting powder which we have to-day is much different from what it used to be in the days when I first started in the business" said MT Colman, and I am not as well posted on everything as I might like to be, but there are some things about handling powder that when a man learns them once, he never forgets as long as he lives, and no matter what kind of powder is used or how much the style changes it is all the same; they VIII Sllll De CdIelul dHu WdlCll their business nightly close. Of course, of all the explosives nitro- glycerine is the most dangerous and the hardest to get along with. It has as many moods and is as hard to man. age sometimes as the spoiled child or a woman who wants her own way.
 q never got over my great respect for this explosive, and even to-day I treat it with every difference, and will be as gentle and peaceful in it's pres ence as any tyro. A man can never get any experience in handling nitro-glyce- rine; the more he handles it the less he is liable to know about it. For he re- aiizes more and more how uncertain it is.
 "Why, even the kegs that nitro-gly crime comes in are white elephants on a mans hands, for they are mighty hard to get rid of, I tell you. The wood has been so thoroughly saturated with the stuff that it cannot be burned and cannot be broken up, and they can't be left lying around loose, for some one is sure to come along who does not know anything about them and bang something into them and off goes the roof.
