The dead ones are still with us.

 There is such a thing as working a willing pitcher to death. Manager Harrington seems to forget this fact.
 Peter Kiernan's one handed stop in the sixth inning was peach. 1t cor nered O'Brien between the bases and this is where he was declared out for running out of line.
 That chap Long who did the twirl- ing here yesterday ought to be q val uable man to use in the outfield. He is a corking good sticker and in five times at bat yesterday he had four singles and one triple.
 Luskey was in the game for the first time since his injury and his work was gilt edge. There was but one base stolen and with the stick he had two singles and a double. Perhaps Charley has killed the hoodoo which was preventing him from hitting the ball. z 1
 Timmy o'Rourfke no doubt tried to be impartial, but it did look as if he rubbed it into the home team yester- day on two occasions. That hit of Garry's looked fair by inches and an- other decision on first base was de- cided1y wrong. Still he was an im- provement in many respects lover oth- CTS we have had here.
 E Clancy should have won the game yesterday and he would have done so had he been given good support in the left field garden and with the stick. There is no use talking the local play CTS will have to learn to get off the bases when they get on them. They c11 7.i1 of 10 4no iorJt Exlfl ld put some ginger into their base run ming. a
 Scanlon also has jumped the local team and he has been missing since Thursday. Scanlon belongs up in Tor rington, so it does not seem as if it would be hard to find that lad He. like Lindemann, must have tired of the job here. He will not be missed as much as Lindemann, but he ought to have sent letter telling us all about where he was going.
 The new diamond was tried for the first time and when it becomes leveled down it will be an Improvement The games now can be enjoyed much better by those who sit in the grand stand as the center of the stand forms the back stop. It looks as though q good
  over the fence at that point It will be a novelty for the fans to see ball go over the fence on the local grounds
 The despicable work of, Fielder George Courtney yesterday should not have been punished with a release alone. He did not try to go after the flies in the field and at bat he was just as careless. In order to end his days IoIA ,1f 1Nz in the last inning and deliberately struck at three balls one after the other and was out. Manager HarriGg- ton should not have released him; he should have suspended him and pre-, vented him from working in this or any other league for this season at least.
 The Grieve, Bisset & Holland team was defeated for the second time by the Miller G& Peck nine Friday evening by the score of 40 to ?. In the first two innings thirty-three runs were made off Reilly's delivery. He was immediately sent to the bench and Por- ter substituted, who allowed them but seven runs during the remainder of the game. Brennan of the losing team played a remarkable game having only eight errors. The battery for the yictors was Bergin and McNellis; and Reilly. Porter and Phillips for the losers.
 Lindemann has at last jumped Wa terbury. He said he would some time ago, but everything was patched up. Then Waller took a seat on the bench for reasons known to himself, proba- bly,. and Lindemann and Clancy were forced to do double work. The result might have been expected Tindemann had q good offer in an independent team and he would not be forced to do the work that others were shirking. It is too bad to lose a good man like Lindemann when there are others on the team who would please everybody if they would jump and never come back. Lndemann may have been get ting good money. If he was he de- served every cent of it. He became dfsgusted, just as some of the fans are doing. and he will play now with the Belfast. Me, team. He should not be blamed for Jumping, for he probably had good and just reasons.
