The schedule of games in the Great CT Waterbury Amateur league for to- morrow is as follows: Big Seven vs Colum bias, Waterville; Oakville ys Sunshine A. C., Driving park; Fifth Wards vs Merrimacs, Browns lots; Lafayettes vs Acmes, Riverside park.
 The talk about moving the Meriden team to Bristol or Holyoke is all bosh. The team will finish the season in Meri- den and will pay. A little period of hard luck doesn't discourage the Meri- den team ! nor the Meriden people, Neriden Record.
 Sorry to have to climb back to fourth place over Waterbury's remains, but there wasn't any other way just at this time and delays are dangerous. It doesn't matter about Bridgeport being along, too. No trouble to shake away from that crowd.-New London Tele- graph.

 James McNamara, one of the own CTS of the Detroit baseball. club. said last night that he did not believe La joie would sign with Cleveland. s.When 1 left Philadelphia he prom ised me that if he played anywhere outside of Philadelphia he would come to Detroit" said AIcNamara, ..and as I have heard nothing from him since that time I do not think he has signed or will sign with Cleve- land. The same condition that pre- vented Lajoie from coming to Detroit prevents him from going to Cleveland, and I do not think he will go.'
 Speaking of. hard luck stories, the following from the Philadelphia North American, entities Cleveland 10 the blue ribbon: s.The Cleveland team is badly crippled Mccarthy, the brain fest man on the team, is in bed in Cleveland with a badly wrenched leg; Harvey, the regular right fielder, is at West Baden, Ind, under treatment; Gochnaur, the sensa tional young short stop, is sick at his home in Altoona, IL Besides this, Taylor has jumped, Flick dare not step on Pennsylvania soil and Wright left town yesterday to avoid the possibility of legal pro ceedings.

SUNDAY BASE BALL DOOMED.
Notices will be Served on the Mana
 gers in a Few Days.


 gers in a Few Days.
 No more Sunday base ball will be played in Browns meadow after to- morrow. neither in the morning nor afternoon. This is the conclusion, which k. K. Brown, owner of the field, has arrived at in consequence Of nu- merous complaints which he has re- ceived against Sunday base ball play ing from residents in that neighbOr- hood. The proper observance of the Sabbath day is disturbed by the ball games so the complainants claim.
 The games will be allowed to be played tomorrow by R. K. Brown as he would consider it unjust to prevent the playing of the games tomorrow inasmuch as the games are sched- uled and the ball players have not been notified not to play there. But during the coming week Constable Ra- metti will serve notice upon the six clubs in the City Amateur league, the eight clubs in the Greater Waterbury league and the six clubs in the Brass City league that henceforth Sunday base ball at Browns meadows will be prohibited.
 Personally it is said that MT Brown has no objection to Sunday base ball but is taking the above action ow- ing to the many complaints which he has received from the residents in the vicinity of the ball grounds. There is an amusing incident in connection with the games already played at Browns lots. It is said that one Sun day MT Brown sent Constable Ramet- Ii to witness the ball game and see if any disturbances occurred. The con- stable went but as far as he could see the game was properly conducted and free from any unnecessary noise and he SO reported. But last Sunday so it is said, Mir Brown went to game to see how it was conducted. He was not pleased with one little affair thai occurred

WASHINGTON, May 24 Represent ative Stephens Of Texas has introduced a resolution that is directly aimed at the tender of a monument of Frederick the Great to the United States II sets forth that the United States should not accept from any foreign nation or erect i'll any public place any statue of any king, emperor, prince or potentate who has ruled or is now ruling any nation by the supposed divine right of kings
 The resolution further sets forth that the acceptance of such statue by this government would be repudiation of it's basic principles as enunciated in the bill of rights and constitution, an insult to the memories of our Revolu- tionary fathers, an admission that one man may govern nation without the consent of the governed and after his death have his statue erected in our re- public and the blessings of the divine right of kings to rule thereby approved.

A woman who has had experience with this disease tells how to prevent any dangerous consequences from it. She says: Our three children took whooping cough last summer. our baby boy being only three months old, and owing to our giving them Cham berlain's Cough Remedy they lost none of their plumpness and came out in much better health than other chil- dren whose parents did not use this remedy. Our oldest little girl would call lustily for cough syrup between wheops U Jessie Pinkey Hall, Spring vile, Ala. This remedy is for sale by all druggists.

BASE BALL NEWS.
Waterbury Defeated by Nor- wich in a Slugging Match.

John Walters Curves Were Hammered
 Around the Lot-One of the Norwich
 Pitchers Was Driven Out of the
 Box-Bridgeport Defeats Springfield
 With New Pitcher-New Haven
 and New London Winners
 Those who attended the game in Norwich yesterday saw an exhibition of batting that must have tickled them. where the tickle spot is most tender. The batting was not all on one side either for Waterbury although beaten drove one twirler to the woods and had fun with another. John Wall Ter, Jr, however. was the bright, rosy mark for the Norwich stickers and them hammered his twists all over the lot. Seventeen clean hits with total of twenty-two bases was a feast it for the most pronounced fan. It is not likely that Waller, Jr will ever receive such hard treatment again. The team behind Waller. or some of the team did not play gilt-edged ball either and those six errors were costly. On the other hand Norwich played with but one error, that being made by Dan Murphy. Kiernan, Robinson and Waller were the only local players who failed to find either one of the pitchers safely, while the bad plays were made by I<iernan, Weisbecker, Luskey, Mccormack and Waller. The first pitcher for Norwich was Murphy and he was sent to the tall grass after a short session. Jenk- ins took his place and did not fare much better. but Norwich was hitting the ball and that was all that was necessary. The score and summary:
Waterbury Democrat., 1902-05-24

Bobby Reakes, who was defeated here by Harvey Parker last winter, wrestled with August Myers at the Woodbine in Toronto Tuesday. The men wrestled on the grass, and the stakes were merely $50 side. Myers weighed fifteen pounds more than his older opponent, but the veteran Reakes proved the better man, and took two falls in r minutes and 6 minutes re spectiYelY.
