BASEBALL NOTES.

 prodicals hatted well

Bridgeport Tuesday.
 Prodigals batted well
 Ira Plank got his yesterday.
 We are in New London to-day.
 Hartford at the head of the league.
 Mccabc is having some bad errors.
 Farley is earning his salary all right.
 If Wagner goes it will make bad hole.
 It is time for Norwich to take toboggan slide.
 n New Yorks will get mobbed some day in Pittsburg. l7st1f Another win to-day will make the week a good one.
 Treat or Bronkie ought to take the Whalers' measure to-day. Make way for the Prodigais.
 The City league games tomorrow will be fought out to finish ana they will be bitter ones Waterbury is making some good finishes. As long as the team wins, II only by a tongue there is no KICK coming.
 Wagner is playing fine game for Waterbury while namesake of his IS doing the same for Pittsburg, wonder if they are relatives. Bridgeport is doing nicely and that game between the Orators and the Hartford bunch to-day ought to be pretty warm contest.
 Manager Burnham has released Pitcher Bronkie, Catcher Ross and
 First Baseman o'Hagan to the Wa terbury club of the Connecticut lea que.
 The Prodigals were rightly named, for they have come back to the fold and they are making great efforts to
 get back to their own in the front
 rank.
 The peculiarity of percentages is shown in the standing of Waterbury
 and Bridgeport to-day festerday both were tied. both won and yet Bridgeport Is three points ahead. | That certainly is a great schedule. Nh game in this city for i've days, land next week we have four games almost in succession. If we can take the game to-day we will talk to the
 leaders next week. No happier fans cal Dc found these days than the thousands who have focked into the Pittshurg base ball
 grounds. Three straight defeats for line New York Nationals must be sweet indeed.
 The writer can remember when the Massachusetts cities made little oi
 their Connecticut brethren. but the
 shoe is on the other foot now. Its laoIlars to nickels that Springfield and Holyoke will get a gentle re minder from their respective man asers before many days are over.
 perhaps as much credit belongs ts
 Harry Durant as 70 any manager IT this league for the team he has go'
 together. He had no nucleus ts start with. as did the others, and had . ,o ft each man into fis place. sne . he has been a successful architect II
