 The Brooklynites who have been camping out the past ten days at Bantam have returned and are tired of camp life. The weather was very bad while the fellows were tenting it.

 Although the Brooklyns only scored in one inning yesterday they made enough in that one round to defeat the Merrimacs by the score of 5 to 3. The fellows across the bridge are now only one game be- hind the leaders. and they are confi- dent of getting that game when they line up against the Pastimes.
 Although the new addition to the Bank street bridge is said to be IS inches higher than the old structure. 1t is doubtful, if, when completed, 1t will be more than 10 or IF inches higher than the old pons. The part which is now being built Is on the Brooklyn side and although at places It may be- foot and q half higher fhapr tbe, bridge now there, at some points 1t Is safe to say that there is little or no difference in regard to the distance between the height of the bridge and that of the old one. This condition arises from the fact that Bank street slopes on either, side of the bridge, forming hollow un- der the bridge. The edge of the new bridge will be over that part of Bank street which has a steep grade so that while one part of the bridge may be IS inches higher than the old one, another section will not be nearly so high. The thing does not make much difference at any rate. because the raising of the bridge IS inches would be of very little conse- quence. but when the new bridge is completed 1t will not be any more than foot and half higher than the old one at all points as Is the gen. eral opinion.
