 Thomas J. Lynch, king of umpires, < the best man who ever handled an in- I dicator, may be seen on the Connecti- ar fir IT. mean that MT Lynch has deteriorated or that his services are any less in de mand than before, for he has refused offers from both big leagues for this season. MT Lynch's mother-in-law is quite ill and he does not care to leave her for long intervals. If the Connac- ticut league managers will make Lynch q reasonable offer he will take tie field He is not in want, for besides serving the National league twelve years, he is joint proprietor of the Russwin Ly- ceum, and has been thoughtful enough to lay aside a penny for rainy day.

 Woodruff has retired from baseball
 and has accepted the treasurership of Duss' Incompatible band. The band
 will open the summer season at the l Metropolitan opera house on Sunday, May 9, and will then go to St Nich- olas garden to fill an engagement of
 16 weeks. MT Woodruff says that he I would be glad to have any of his New
 London friends call on him at the gar
 den during the engagement of the
 band, and promises to make it pleasant
 for them. The band is considered by
 capable critics to be remarkably
 strong musical organization. MT Duss,
 the leader, has one of the finest li-
 braries of band music in the country,
 including classical and popular selec-
 tions. The repertoire of the band is
 large and among the musicians are many men of high standing ill their
 profession.-New London Day.
