 In a fierce batting game Waterbury took the Bristol sluggers into camp yes terday but the game was in doubt until third on fast play by Courtney, Wal Ter and Cusick. Bristol brought along with her a bunch of rooters who. had plenty of money to wager on their team but it is very doubtful if they managed to place any of the long green. It was an exciting game to watch and chap named Cone who was seen here few seasons ago attempted to umpire but he ought to go back to Bridgeport ana never attempt it again. He certainly is a dead failure and while he gave it to Waterbury on sev- eral occasions he rubbed it In as we'll on the Bristolites, who swarmed around him very many times when de cisions were not coming their way. The Bristols were prone to kick however and those present jollied both them and the umpire all through the game. The game was won as follows:
 Kid Morris started in to do the twirling for the home team and for four innings he did excellent work. He was given corking good support by Kiernan in particular who had three as- sists and five putouts in those four innings. Two fast double plays for which Kiernan was mainly responsible added to the fastness Of the game. In the fifth the Kid took flight into the clouds and before he descended he had allowed Bristol to score three runs ty- ing the score already made by the home team.
 Mock, the first man up in that in- ming knocked out a long one to right field and Lusksy ran in instead of run ming out and the ball sailed over his head and Mock was on third. Ken nedy then hit high one to left and Mock scored on the out Francis walk cd free and Berry went out from short to first. Owens then rapped out a single and Anderson caught a double and then Cusick made another bum play and the damage was done. The Kid was Taken out after that innihg and Waller substituted. Tn his first inning but three m6enr were up and no one got on base. The seventh inning was very disastrous for Bristol got on to Waller and hammered out three sin gles and a triple which netted them three runs They scored another in the eight on two singles and one more in the ninth on two singles and long fly to center.
