Hartford here to-morroW.

It is reported that some of the Wa terbury players have their contracts in their pockets and that they are not in the possession of the management. That may be the reason for this talk of jumping.
 The first game for week will be played tomorrow when Hartford comes here and the local players say a pretty stiff article of baseball The fans should turn out in force ro-mor- row and give the local players a well come after a weeks absence.
 The Philadelphia National league baseball club. through it's attorneys, yesterday filed suit in the United States district court i'll Cleveland praying for a perpetual injunction against Lajoie and Bernhard to pre- vent them from playing with the Cleveland American league team. It is ayerred. that Lajoie and Bernhard entered into contract with the Phila- delphia club under the laws of Penn sylvania, covering the present season. and that notwithstanding the existence of this contract the defendants are playing with the Cleveland club. The case will be heard by Judge Wing on Tuesday, July 1.
 Much indignation and sarcasm has been expressed by the members of the Gilbert school base ball team in regard to the refusal of the Torrington Higl school to meet the local boys. Their excuse mas been that the local boys were playing post graduates and Jones and Burwell and that they would play no team in which graduates were repre- sented. However, theteam recently jour neyed to Waterbury, where they were defeated by the High school team ol that city in a fast game. Tn the boz for Torrington was an unknown twirlel
 whose name appeared as Brown, bu
 according to all reports his name il
 other games has been spelled Cha
 Din, and still Torrington won't pla. post graduates.-W Winsted Citizen.

AFLoAT IN PUNCH LAKE.
A Mfdshipmate Rowed Around Ladling
 Out the Stuff.

Contrary to general belief, punch and the punch bowl are not institutions of Anglo Saxon or even of European origin. The arak of Indian origin pre- ceded the invention of punch. 1t was a sacred beverage, some times served with the addition of four other ingredi- ents-fruit juice, water, sugar and nut meg. Five was 8 sacred number to the worshippers of a Brahma. The Dutch were much addicted to a bev- craze caled "bouleponge,' a semi-Hin- du, semi-European preparation, the strength of which frequently proved fatal to drinkers; in the eighteenth century brandy and eau de vie were substituted for arak. In Furstiere's dictionary, compiled in the end of the seventeenth century and published in 1701, .'boue" is given as an English drink" the recipe being one pint of brandy, one of lemon juice. nutmeg, toasted biscuits, all thoroughly pound ed and well mixed together. It was also much in vogue in Russia, where according to Voltaire Peter III died from drinking too much of it in 1762.
 Before that date, in 1894, Admiral Russell of the British navy. gave a feast to the English fleet, then on the coast of Spain, at which the punch bowl was the principal feature, and has become historic. A marble basin erected in lemon tree grove was the vessel in which it was served. Six hundred bottles of brandy and of rum respectively, twelve hundred bottles of Malaga, four hundred liters of boiling water, six hundred pounds of best sugar, two hundred pounded nutmegs and the juice of twenty-six hundred lemons were used for the occasion. The youngest and daintiest middy of the fleet rowed on this strange lake in tiny mahogany skiff, then padding to the edge, he ladled out the beverage to over six hundred guests who were present. tt the feast on three tiers of
 seats arranged as an amphftheater. The discrepancy between the quantity of water used as compared with the wine and spirit is somewhat signif- cant, yet not drop of the beverage

MOUNTAIN OF SALT.

Probably one of the greatest natur- al curiosities in the world, whose ex- istence is but little known, is the great mountain of salt located at Cardona, Spain in the foothills of the Pyrenees. This marvel stands in dreary and in accessible region. off the highway of travel. and is only reached by drive of twenty-five miles in mule cart.
 A recent party of scientists visited this giant salt mountain and reported some interesting facts in regard to the same. This mountain is several thous- and feet high and is estimated to con- tain 5OO,OO0.OO0 tons of rock salt This enormous quantity of salt is made more apparent by the fact that the bordering country of France consumes 100000 tons a year. so that this noun tain alone could furnish France with enough salt to last TOO years.
 The mountain is on private land, and only worked to limited extent.

WITH THE WRESTLERS.

Young Acton, the New York feather weight, who met all corners at a New York theater last season, wants a match with any lad who can scale from 122 to 124 pounds. Acton is a clever wrestler.
 Harvey Parker says that he will not do any wrestling until late in August, and that if George Bothner wants to meet him their match will have to be held then. Parker expects to go to San Francisco in January.
 "Parson'' Davies, who is at present in England, has posted forfeit with the London nIlrror Of Life on behalf of an unknown" Davies will not dis close the name of the man, but it is understood that he is Prof Shoenfeld of New Orleans.
 George Tuohey, Wittmer's manager, has been in communication with sev. eral English promoters about Wittmer's appearance in Great Britain and has received favorable assurances that Wittmer will do well if he takes the trip. Tom Cannon, the o1d-time Eng fish champion will probably be Witt mer's opponent.
 Nick Elliott, the New York wrestler says that he would like n chance against Bulldog Clayton, the recent importation in the wrestling line from England. Elliott says: If any club or sport will hang up q purse and pay my expenses I will go to Buffalo and meet Clayton in contest for endur- ance at catch-as-catch-ca style"
 George Meyers, the former trainer of Carl Norbeck, the Swedish champion. says that he has received word that .lx
 to this country again. Meyers expects Olsen to arrive here about the latter part of October. Olsen will be ready when he gets here, Meyers says, to make q match with either John Pien. ing or Charley Whitman.

GREED OF BLACK BASS.

Trick of an Angler to Stir Their Ca
 pricious Appetite.
 To predict about black bass with much confdbnce is unsafe and unwise That fish has an appetite most puzzling in it's whims. One thing certain is that selfishness is largely developed in black bass, particularly i'll big ones
 E well known sportsman was fishing for black bass in the St Lawrence riv- CT. He had poor sport At last he got a strike from a small bass.
 The bass had taken his leader fly. He was reeling ill when suddenly he got another strike that made everything hum, and out of the water at least two feet came q good three pounder. This bass had fast in it's jaw the dropper fly next ahead of the fly the small bass was on. After hard fight both bass were landed.
 The angler, encouraged began to cast again, but long time without sue cess. Then another small bass took his lower dropper fly.
 As he was reeling the fish in, zipi came a second strike, and, as before out of the water leaped another big fellow. This one had taken the fly just ahead of that the little bass was on, ana that gave Ine HSnermdn an 1uod.
 He had often noticed in a pool or aquarium where large and small black bass were together that large bass, after declining food. would instantly make a rush for it if small bass at tempted to take it, and would frequent ly abandon the pursuit of one minnow to go after one smaller bass was pur- suing
 It was the selfish greed that had ac- tuated the two big bass he had hooked immediately after hooking the two small ones. Thus the angler argued and after landing his second catch of bass he left the small one on the hook, to test the correctness of his theory.
 The result was that the use of the small one as the imaginary pursuer of that dropper fly aroused the deter imitation of no fewer than ten big bass to circumvent it and gobble that fly themselve, much to their own dis comfiture and to the satisfaction of the fisherman who has tried the same ruse many times since with similar results.

THE MARSH FAIRIES.
A Botanical Lesson.

There is beautiful pale golden flow CT that comes very early in the spring. There seems to be great difference of opinion with regard to this messenger of spring. In some localities it is cal led the skunk cabbage, and other pla- ces it is known as the marsh fairy, which is certainly a much prettier name and one fully as applicable. Whatever name it goes by it is certain ly Q pretty flower, and if left to bright en the. spot where it grows it's odor is not disagreeable but attempt to pick it and you will receive as punisbment for disturbing it a most disagreeable odor. It grows in wet, swampy places and behaves much better if left alone; in shape it is much like a cally lily and in color it is clear bright lemon. It is so bright and beautiful, Tightening up the lonely swamps and marshes, that I think it should be forgiven its one fault and left to carry out it's mission undisturbed.
 The marsh fairy has a mission, and like other missionaries it does not like to be disturbed;so if you see one of these flowers admire it all you please, but do not attempt to pick it, as the gloomy swamps and marshes are frightened and beautified by its pres ence-By Harriet Crabbe.

TOD SLOAN WINS FORTUNE.
Noted Jockey Recouping His Many
 Losses.


 Paris, June 25.-James Todhunter Sloan has had q remarkable run of turf luck this summer In the spring his finances were perilously low, and he had to give up an ambitious plan to establish an automobile manufac- tory in the United States At the end of May Sloan had lost $500,000 in turf speculation.
 With June his fortunes changed and he has not only recouped himself, but he has amassed a fortune in addition. Sloan now has commissioners wag- ering his money in England and France. He was heavy winner on Kizil-K Kourgan, in the Grand Prix, having, it is said, cleared $1S0,0O0. The magnitude of S1oan's betting has astonished racegoers in a city where heavy gambling is the rule. To provide against reverses Sloan has 1 bought a $10,000 annuity from the Credit Lyonnaises
 | He has bought new racing motor from Mors that is the finest machine seen in the Bois. This, with his Pan- hard ct Levassor. his Decauille voitur- cite and his American runabout, give him one of the best motor studs in France.

HARVARD WINS SECOND GAME.
' Hard Hitting Makes Series With Yale
 a Tie


 New Haven, June 25.--In the annual commencement ball game at the 4aie field yesterday afternoon Harvard turned the tables on Yale and batted out a victory. The score was 10 to A. Garvan, Yale's standby pitcher, was hit hard. He was touched up so lively that in the sevenths inning Captain Guernsey had McIxelvey warm up, and in the eighth the substitute went in and did the twirling for the remainder of the game. The change was made too late, TOT Harvard had already gained a substantial lead, which Yale could not overcome. Clarkson, consid- cred the star college pitcher, was not up to the standard, and Yale hit him handily. However, Yales batting streaks amounted to little when liar yard began to bounce on Garvan. The fielding of both hines was excellent, and, contrary to all expectations, it was a hitting game.

 London, June 23.--Frank Ern1, for mer Lightweight champion of the world, knocked out Jim Maloney of Hackney in seven rounds at the National Sport ing club last night.
 Tommy Ryan. the worlds middle weight champion, knocked out Johnny German in three rounds.

 Owing to the -sings sickness the at tendance at the club was not up to that of the two preceding tournament days. Still, there was a high class crowd present Richard Croker and Nat Goodwin were again interested spectators.
 Erne came to England matched to fight Pat Daly. the English lightweight champion. Daly could not make I36 pounds, the stipulated weight, ana Eddie Connolly took Erne's place. The New Brunswick man knocked Daily out in a furious battle at 40 pounds.
 AIaloney was substituted for Daily, so as to give Erne q contest at l36 pounds. The fight last night showed Erne at his best He hit his rushing and hard hitting opponent almost at will, but the latter took a lot of beat ing.
 Erne's fine boxing and footwork were applauded again and again. In the seventh round Erne landed a hard left in Maloney's stomach, and as the Briton's head came forward he drove a short right to the jaw, knocking him out.
 Connolly now wants to fight Erne for the English lightweight title.
 Johnny German gave Ryan q hard fight for three rounds and then sue cumbed to shower of left hooks. Cor man realized that he must win quickly if at all and rushed Ryan from the first bell.
 The champion, in return, boxed beau tifully. and fought savagely. The ex- hibition was the best so far of the cor onation series.
