Late Sporting News.

Because of the outcome of the con tests already played by the All Wa terbury and Naugatuck football teams. there is much dissatisfaction, and both teams are anxious for a third game so it is said. There was much talk last evening about Nauga- tuck willing to come to this city next Sunday and endeav0r to break the tie. If they ate willing to do so they will find that the Waterbury eleven is eager to accommodate them, going so far as to throw over the Nonpa- reils of New Haven, who are sched- uled to come to this city next Sunday. Assistant manager of the All Water bury team, Lou Cronan stated this noon that Waterbury would call next Sundays game with the Nonpa- reils off if Naugatuck would consent to another game. It seems that there is only a forfeit of $l5 up on this game and Waterbury would not mind losing it to get another chance al Naugatuck.

RELIGION HAD TO BEND"
Allowances Called For in Case of Fat
 'Possum.

Representative John Sharp VII, laims tells of an encounter on Mis- souri road one Sunday morning be- tween an itinerant preacher and a darky, who bore on his shoulder a freshly killed 'possum.
 Have you any religious feeling. my friend?" asked the minister.
 "Shore," replied the darky, "rse had religious bringin' up.'
 Then you ought to know that 1t IS sinful to hunt on the Sabbath"
 "Mistah preachah." returned the darky, his eyes rolling till the whites shone. docs you expect any black man in Mississippi is gwine to tie his self to any religion dat allows pos sum to walk right across de road ahead of him an git away free! No sah, A religion dat don't bend a lit tie when a fat 'possum heads you on couldn't be established round yere by all the preachers in de country.

FIRE IS MYSTERIOUS.
Handsome Gymnasium of the Curtis
 School in Brookfeld Burned

Brookfield, Nov 26.-A careful in- vestigation made to-day failed to dis close the cause of the fire which de- stroyed the handsome gymnasium of the Curtis school in Brookfield Gen. ter Saturday night with loss of sev. eral thousand dollars. The building was used both as a gymnasium and an assembly hall and stood near the main buildings of the private school conducted by F. s. Curtis. The fire apparently started underneath and outside of the gymnasium and before 1t was discovered burst through the floor and filled the interior of the hall. Brookfield has no fire fighting apparatus and the students at the school and many of the villagers formed bucket lines and worked heroically to save neighboring build ings. Among the fire fighters were number of women. who took their places in the bucket lines or carried water in pans from the neighboring wells. The gymnasium was insured.

 New Haven, Nov 26,-The police at Milford enriched themselves at the expense of those who attended the Yale-Harvard game.
 Mrs J. B. F.. Herreshof was arrest ed Saturday afternoon about 5 o'clock. In company with two other New York women she was coming along the highway through Milford at slow pace. She is of nervous temperament and says that she could not stand running the auto at more than half the speed the law allows. A constable ordered the women to stop and put them under arrest. Mrs Her reshoff gave $25 as a bond to appear In court. Mrs Herreshoff's husband is the famous yacht designer. Norwalk, Nov 26.-The Norwalk Automobile club generously aided the automobilists on the way to the foot ball game to avoid the auto consta- bles at Darien Saturday. The auto mobile club stationed a man near the Stamford line. He handed to each party a card bearing the following caution:
 "The man who stops you is a rep resentative of the Norwalk Automo- bile club. There is police trap ahead. Use extreme caution until you pass our other representative with club flag-red with white let ters IN. A. C. Norwalk Automobile club"

vIGER's MOTION DENIED.
Miss Pilon's Case May Now Go to tho
 Supreme Court.

Attorney U. G. Church communi- cated good news to his client to-day, Miss Emma Pilon, regarding her suit against Alfred Viger of Pittsfeld. Mass, for s15,00 damages for breach of promise. Some weeks ago Miss Pilon was given a verdict for $6,o00 and the defendant filed notice Of en- tering motion for new trial and reduction of the amount of the ver- dict. To-day Attorney Church re- ceived word from his colleague in Pittsfeld that MT Viger,s counsels motion had been denied on both is- sues. This leaves MT Viger with only one avenue by which he may escape paying the verdict of $6,0O0, that is to take an appeal to the su- preme court on the ground of error in evidence or rulings, and he will undoubtedly take this step.

Rock Ready to Fall.

Great Harrington, Mass, Nov 26.-> A huge rock poised above this town threatens serious consequences should it become further loosened by the ac- tion of the elements. The big boul- der. known as East rock, is located on the Taconic mountain, and direct ly beneath 1t are several residences and the buildings of the Riverdale mills. Recent rains have washed away much of the supporting earth of the rock and an old Indian legend that the rock would eventually slip from its foundation and roll into the valley, damming up the river and doing great damage, is recalled. Early Indians were warned by their chiefs against putting up their wig. wams within line of the possible de- scent of the rock.

EAST MAIN DOUBLE TRACK.
Kept Busy Yesterday Carrying Crowd
 to and from Football Game.

to and from Football Game.
 That the trolley company finished the double tracking of East Main street, as far as Pierponts corner in the nick of time, was made evident yesterday, for if the double track had not been in use, the crowd that was on its way to the football game would in all probability have reached the grounds at the finish of the con test and there is no telling when the people would have arrived home. All though the power yesterday was very low and the cars did not travel bet ter than snail's pace still as thers were no waits once the start was made the people seemed to be thank ful.
 The cars left the center just as soon as they came in and there were no delays in sending them off. This was such contrast to other occasions that the people did not know what to make of 1t.
 line has been very poor and the dou- ble track is expected to make the ser vice very good There are still two small stretches, one on East Main near School and the other at the Mad river bridge, which are not yet dou- bled tracked, but they will be attend ed to in short time.
 East Main street is paved entirely on the north side, from Wolcott to Silver streets and on the south side the work has reached the McEVoy property.
 The Cheshire cars continue to trav- el in East Main street at lightning speed and yesterday as they flew by, raised clouds of dust, which pedes, | trians had to swallow. The cars on | the Cheshire line travel much toe fast and it is surprising some serious accident has not occurred on East Main street, because of the high | speed of the cars. Some of the crews especially during the night. try te make the trip in the quickest time possible. and one of them made the claim last week that the trip from Mt Carmel to the car barns was ac complished in 30 minutes, on one ot | the last runs. It is said to be re l markable time to come from Mt Car.
 mel to the green in 32 minutes 70 il is left to the imagination to realize | how fast the car must have proceed
 ed to reach the barns in 30 minutes
