Norwich here tomorrow.


 Norwich here tomorrow.
 That was pretty hard game to lose Saturday.
 Charley Clancy must have made the fans in Bristol breathe hard during those nine innings. That was great pitching.
 We have but two home games this week, one with Norwich tomorrow and one with Derby on Friday. We play in Bridgeport, to-day, Norwich Wednes- day, New London Thursday and Meri- den on Saturday. That gives us very hard week of it, handicapped as we are with only two pitchers.
 Norwich will be here tomorrow and we will endeavor to keep those players interested until it is time for them to quit. We have taken the measure of the representative of Norwich before this season and we expect to do the same thing tomorrow. It will be a gem worth seeing because Norwich al- ways puts up scrappy game of ball and are fighters to the end.
 The Merrimacs and Fourth Wards played a game of ball on the Rye lots yesterday morning, in which the for mer won by the score of 11-4 Byrnes. pitcher for the victors, was well-nigh invincible. Only three hits were made off his delivery. The Merrimacs would like to arrange a game with the Pas time A. c. or the Eagles. William Ghent of East Main street is manager The lineup is as follows: Mcdonald, catcher; J. Byrnes, pitcher; E. Byrnes. Ghent, first base; Slavin, second base: Kenney, third base; G. Byrnes, short stop; Ghent, E. Hayes, left field: Ryan, right field; J. Hayes, center field.
 Sad and weary, with gloomy faces and downcast eyes, lowered heads and dropping shoulders, the members of the nine which represented the rolling mill of the Waterbury Brass Go Wend- eG their several ways into the mill. They were a sad looking lot, one which would command the sympathy of the most hard hearted. On the other hand, proud as peacocks, were the office help, They had the glad hand for every one. Joy and delight were written in their features. And why should they not be joyful? After all the boasting and vaunting of the rolling mill nine, they were defeated by the office team on Saturday after noon at the Athletic field by the score of IS to IT. The features of the game were the many amusing and inexcusa- bIe errors of both teams A large crowd saw the game. Chipman and Beardsley were the battery for the win enrs, while Carroll and Shinbille were the battery for the losers.
 The Consolidated base ball team of this city met the first defeat of the sea son at Torrington, Saturday, by the score of Is to 12. The Consolidated team had the game won 12 to s up to the last inning, when Pitcher Kelly and his team went into the air, not to come down until Torrington had scored eight runs. For team like the Con solidated to have the game won up to the last and then to go to pieces, does not reflect any great amount of credit on the club. Kelly was touched up pretty well throughout the game, but he did not lose it on that account, for had he received the right support at critical points of the game they could have pulled out ahead Manager Brennan planes himself for not being with the team Saturday, as he would have put Therault in the last part of the game instead of Kelly. However, there will be some changes made right away on the team that will certainly tend to strengthen it, and cut out such work as seen in the last inning at Tor irngton on Saturday.
