THE DIAMOND.
DURANT LOOKS
 LIKE WINNER
The Popular Waterbury Attorney Seems to Have the Race For the Water. bury Franchise.

Everything points now to Attorney Harold R. Durant being the next man. ager of the Waterbury base ball team which Will take its place in the Con necticut league the coming season. The sale of the Meriden franchise has been practically completed and with this sale will go the players on the ! Meriden reserve list. There have been so many in the field looking for the Waterbury proprietorshfp that it was difficult to select winner from all the applicants. At first 1t looked as though DeWolf of Holyoke had the call, but he seems to have dropped out of it in the past few weeks. Then P. J. Lawlor of this city made a bid for the franchise, having with him Frank Fitzpatrick, captain of last seasons s Springfield team, and Denny Reardon of Holyoke, the former umpire and Waterbury pitcher. Another new one came to light yesterday in the person or Ned Slater, former first baseman of the Waterbury team and later with Meriden. Attorney Durant, however, seems to be coming in under the pole winner, and perhaps before the day is over that point will be definitely settled. Attorney James H. O'R0urk, of Bridgeport, the secretary of the l league and manager of the Bridgeport team, has intimated his choice of Durant for the position, and as he is one of the committee to make the SC. lection it gives the Durant boom de- cided push forward.
 Apropos of the above the following under a Holyoke date is very signifi cant:
 Holyoke. Nov 17.-An attempt by Dan ONeil to reach W. P. Bristol of Meriden failed of connection last night and the situation in regard to the Wa terbury franchise is still in doubt, Mr O'Neil as chairman of the special com mittee having the matter in charge, sent out notices last night calling meeting of the committee in Water bury on Tuesday.
 Secretary ]. H. O'Rourke informed Mir 0'Neil over the telephone last night that he did not see any need for haste in the matter. The committee chair. man, however. believes the matter should be settled up so that the owners of the Waterbury rights may go ahead with their ground plans and begin to get lines out for players.
 The Waterbury papers do not take kindly to any proposition but that At torney H. R. Durant should be given the franchise. It is stated by MT O'Nell that the committee has no choice in the matter other than a de sire to settle the affair for the best in. terests of the Brass city and the league.

nFFIcIAIS ARE CHOSEN

New Haven, Nov 1.-The betting is in favor of Yale and some wagers are being made that the Tigers cannot score. Last night the squad received their final pointers for the game in the gymnasium. All the old grads were on hand and the signals were run through a few times. But the boys were packed of to bed early to get all the rest possible. Tripp, who has been a bit of color for few days,
 is fast recuperating and will be in tip top condition on Saturday. The line up as finally announced is as follows:

NOT GOOD IDEAS.

A writer to the Harvard Bulletin makes the following suggestions:
 "In case q player is detected in un- fair or brutal practices and ordered from the game. no substitute can be put in his place; the team must bear the penalty of finishing the game one man short.
 Any player removed for unfair or

would burn him, and naturally cause
him to be wide-awake. He would then
get up. throw more wood on the fire,
and return to the coffin. He kept this
up all night: long, and the wrist Of his
right arm bears evidence of how faith
fully. . :
AS on the day before, the wolves de-
parted upon the coming of the dawn, al
though they followed him as relent-
lessly as they had done ever since the
trail was struck, and the third and last
night that Mahoney went without
sleep, and almost without food, will
be kept green in his memory as long
as he lives. 49,,
AS usual, Mahoney left the trail
some little time before SHUTDOWN, made
his camp and gathered a large guam
tity of wood. He knew that if he
could weather the night, his fight
against sleep and beast would be end
ed, for the next day would find him
at roadhouse, and from then on it
would be easy sailing.
Everything went we'll until three
o'clock From then on until morning
it was not so much of fight for the
preservation of the remains of the late
mayor as it was for the preservation of
the life of Mahoney. The wolves,
their hunger increasing, grew holder,
and despite the fact that the fire was
burning as brightly as the fires of the
previous night had done, the gray
timber terrors crept closer and closer.
Ever and anon one, OVERLOAD, would
jump out of the shadow circle cast by
the flames of the fire and snap vi
ciously at the feet Of the silent
watcher. -. 49,. -
All night long Mahoney fought these
wolves. He would take long piece
of pine timber, and, with one end burn
ing, would strike and smash at the
glowing eyes and cleaning teeth, and
in that way he not only kept himself
awake, but he also drove back his
foes.
When morning finally came, Ma
honey, half-crazed through fear and
loss of sleep, once more took the
trail, and at noon that day he came
TO a roadhouse, where he was re-
ceive,;, FED and put to bed. He Slept
until eight o'clock the next morning,
when he at once took to the trail, and
from that time until he reached Val
dez he was not compelled to spend a
single night alone, nor did he again
hear from the unWelcome guests that
had followed him for three days and
nights
There are white hairs on MahOney s
head to-day. They were absent when
he left Fairbanks.

had covered vast stretch of territory
that day, and was tired AS he listened
to the walls of the hungry pack coming
closer and closer he knew there was
no sleep for him that night. And there
was none.
There was only one thing for him to
do, of course, and the fact that he
brought the body through safely shows
that he did it. He spoke to the leader
of his dog team, and they, too, hear
