Running Races To Be Feature on the
 Fourth of July.

Running Races To Be Feature on the
 Fourth of July.
 The Waterbury Driving Go has in- augurated a new departure i'll the horse racing line by introducing run ming races on the track at the Driving park. The first of tbese races will be given at the park on the Fourth of July. These races will be given in addition to a program of trotting events scheduled for the same day, and judging from the interest taken al- ready. in the races the event promises to be unusually attractive. The run hing race event will be open to all and will be run under the regular rules of the racing track. The race will be in half mile heats, and will be Dest three out of five or the best two out of three as the judges and the owners of the horses can decide on.
 The half mile race, best three out of five, for horses having no record bet ter than 80 for the half mile, for 100 bushels of oats, and the half mile, free for all, for 100 bushels of oats, and the jug race will certainly attract the attention of local horsemen. The oats in the half mile trotting races will be divided as the purses are di- vided- -one-half or fifty bushels to first, twenty-five to second, fifteen to third and ten to fourth. The prizes to be given to the winners i'll the rum ming races will be a handsome saddle and bridle with all the accessories. A handsome set of harness will be given to the winner of the jug race.

pose. Ruhlin showed marked i'm provement due no doubt to the care- ful coaching of Billy Madden, who was in his corner.
 A large crowd saw the contest, which drew the best of the series. It was the first notable heavyweight contest seen in England for many years, and the sporting public was keenly interested.
 Sharkey was the favorite in the bet ting and was backed heavily. His father and brother saw the contest, and were heartbroken over the result.
 Ruhlin holds the Irish championship, won from Maher, and it was Sharkey' $ dearest ambition to win the title and tour Ireland, meeting all corners.
 In fight for the heavyweight cham pionship of England Edward Martin of Denver beat Sandy Ferguson of Boston in the fifth round.

 New Haven, June 26.-New Haven played star game of ball at Savin Rock grounds yesterday afternoon when Waterbury was defeated by a score of ' to 1. Deering was in the box for the locals and succeeded in keeping the hits well scattered. The fielding was good on both sides, but New Haven had slightly the better of it. O'Brien at third carried off the honors for New Haven, making 9 diff fcult one-handed stop at critical time and running clear by the score board for foul fly and catching it. Ramon also did some excellent work in left field For Waterbury Weis- becker did the best work. Clancy was hit freely at critical times. The score:

JOHNNY CARAVAN RESTING.
Mike Murphy Wouldn't Let Him Even
 Wait for His Diploma.

New Haven, Jne 26.-There was one Yale senior of prominence, not person ally namely who did not get his di- ploma commencement day. John $. Garyan, the varsity pitcher, did not re- celve his sheepsl1in, but for different reason. Garvan was taken in hand by Trainer Mike Murphy as soon as the big ball game was over and hustled out of town In charge of Harry Gan ley, an assistant trainer, he was sent to his fathers home in Hartford, where he has strict orders to keep quiet, eat and sleep lot till Saturday and come down to New York to face Harvard in the third game in different shape than he did yesterday Garyan has pitched three Princeton games OH consecutive Saturdays, and the two games against Harvard only four days apart. He is not rugged. physically, and he prov ed unequal to the task of pitching Harvard out. The Yale coachers made q mistake in letting Garvan and the other players attend the social exer- cises of commencement week on Mon day and Tuesday. These worked Gar van up to al high pitch of nervous ten sion. For this reason he was not al- lowed to attend the formal commence llCnI cAcIClSeS dltI get HIS QIDiOHlst, friends taking the document for him.
 Perhaps the most disappointed man here at Tuesdays game was Frank F. Garvan. Johns brother, assistant to Prosecuting Attorney Jerome of New York. Frank sat in the front row during the game and was downcast at the result. He heartily approved of taking his brother away from the com mencement exercises and making him keep quiet till called upon to make the supreme effort of his life in athletics next Saturday. Frank was one of the smallest track athletes who ever wore spiked. shoe at Yale and one of the final arguments used by Mike Murphy to make John Garvan outdo himself this year has been to shake his head and say: Frank wouldn't disappoint me- Hell do it. John you've got to keep up the family reputation.' Up to Tuesday John had upheld the fam fly reputation valiantly and it was only physical weakness that caused him to collapse then. He has plenty of packers who are confident that the Gar van family reputation won't suffer any next Saturday.

Manager Hammond has secured the crack Consolidated team of Waterbury to oppose the local team here Saturday afternoon. A fast game is assured. The visitors are putting up good artl- cle of ball and are confident that they can defeat the local nine. Cook, the Yale tWirler, has been occupying the box for the Brass City team, and, it is expected, will pitch for them here Sat urday. Pete Noonan, the Holy Cross catcher, will be behind the bat, and an equally good pitcher will be secured. if possible. Reidy, who wore Win sted uniform last season, but who has been playing with the team represent ing St Bonaventure college this season, will guard a position in the field. Reidy has greatly improved in his work since his last appearance on the dia- mond here.-Winsted Citizen.
 Arrangements were made yesterday to play the deciding game between Yale and Harvard at the Polo grounds, New York, on Saturday afternoon. The intense rivalry existing between the universities is well known, and the struggle promises to be the most ex- citing in years. Yale already has won the annual series from Princeton and the sons of Old Eli will battle hard to make a clean record for the year. Harvard has a strong team this year. This was shown in the contest in New Haven on Tuesday. The crimson nine easily was vanquished in the first game in Cambridge, but just as easily downed the Ellis on their own grounds The members of the Yale and Harvard crews will be on hand to cheer for. their respective teams. The game will be called at 2:3O p. n.

The Former Waterbury Goal Tender
 to Manage a Team.

to Manage a Team.
 At the time that unfortunate Joe Fox, the Lowell goal tend. sustained the injury that deprived him of the sight of one eye in a polo game last spring, Manager w. A. Parsons made a popular move by announcing that he would make Fox the manager of his team next winter. Apparently he will keep his promise, as the Low ell Mail recalls that he has made the promise, and evidently has heard that he is about to do the right thing by the luckless fellow who did such fine work for Parsons in the goal circle
