THE DIAMOND
CLINCHING THE
 FIRST POSITION
Waterbury Maintained Her Right to Be the Real Thing In
 This League.

Hartford, which was Waterbury's hoodoo in the early part of the sea- son, was here on Saturday and the visitors were defeated in a game which was most interesting to watch by the score of to l. The weather was rather moist and the ball was at times hard to handle, but never theless the spectators saw some snap py fielding, even though Waterbury did have four errors. Farley was in the box for O'Hagan's men, while Wilson, the. southpaw. was on the firing line for the Senators. Both pitchers did good work keeping their hits scattered and there were few chances to score. Waterbury got the first run of the game in the fourth and Hartford evened up matters in the sixth. In, the eighth McCabe got to first, went to third on Swander's hit and scored on Nichols long fly to O'Leary, who made a good throw to the plate, but 1t was not handled quickly enough by Kritchel. The score.

Pastimes on top. second place for the Hills.
 Pretty good games yesterday and big crowd present.
 Bob" Moran seems to get better the more he pitches.
 Joe" Walsh, who played this sea- son with Niagara. caught for the St Joes yesterday.
 Brace up, Merrimacs, and do not act like lot of school boys; Gissen- tion among the players will never win games.
 Why doesn't Joe Reid get back in the game for the Merrimacs? He would at least put plenty of life in the team and get the players to put up the game that they are capable
 It looked for astime yesterday as though St Josephs were to win their first game, but Brooklyn made the score tie by using the wallop in the last inning. That boy Lockwood for the Tabs" has some of the incest benders seen at the grounds this year.
 If Carmody, who was on third for the St Josephs in the last inning of the game yesterday, had waited. Walsh, who was at the bat. might have driven him in. As 1t was, with two out Carmody endeavored to steal home and was caught by mile.
 Donahue, who twirled the early part of the game for the Brooklyns, thought that the men behind him were trying to throw him down and he refused to pitch after the fourth inning. He was finally shown that this was not the case, as he received just as good support as did Captain Kelly who succeeded him.

 The City league managers will meet this evening in the St Josephs' rooms.
 Umpire Hickey did not stay away long as he was on deck once more Saturday.
 Eddie Hahn has done his share to- ward helping in the brace of the Chicago Americans.
 There are no indications whatever just now that Ginger Beaumont ever suffered from a dinky leg.
 Now Brother Peet will you be good? Two defeats, and by the tall enders, must make New Haven feel weary.
 If the weather had been good on Saturday another record breaking crowd would undoubtedly have been present.
 Bridgeport has been going some the past couple of weeks and with the beginning of the week. finds itself in third place.
 Walsh finds ii very difficult 10 bat against a south, paw and this ac- counts for his poor showing with the stick on Saturday.
 Pitcher Hall of the Seattle team of the Pacific Coast league has been sc cured by the Cincinnatis and will re port to Hanlon next month.
 The big leagues have not a few feet men In getting to first base. but there are those that say Danny Hoff- man Is the speediest of them all.
 Since Jack Beckiey has joined the ranks of the clean shaven it is be- lieved Titus of the Pbiladelphias is the only mustached ballplayer extant.
 Gastmeyer almost broke up the game in the fifth inning when with the bases full he put one over the left field fence which was foul by on iy a few feet.
 so fsr Al Orth has not won game since the New York Americans left home. Yet he hss pitched three good games in that time. Lack of hif- ting by his mates has been the chief trouble.

TABuLATED STANDING.
The Prodigals Jump to the Front
 With a Goodly Margin.

Waterbury is again leading the lea que and with good percentage ahead of her close rival Norwich. The sur prise of the week has been Bridge port who has cone up the line with rush. There is not a team in the lea gue however that has any cinch on the other if you look carefully over the tabulated standing. It Is an inter esting table to study out. All teams are doing better than four hundred and that Is pretty good work for any league. The following Is the standing:

POOR TEAM WORK.

The Merrimaes started on like easy winners in their game with the North Ends, but then dissensions among the players sent the team into the air and the lads from the North End of the city proceeded to take the game. Captain Tom Lawlor held his men we'll in hand and gave them a good example by playing and batting like a professional. Had the Merrimacs not gone to pieces as they did after that first inning the result might have been different. The score:

COMPELLED To CARRY
DEAD MAN FOR HOURS
Hospitals and Police Refuse 70 Relieve
Bearer of Gruesome Burden, and
He May Become Insane.

PARIS, Jan 2O-After carrying a
dead body around the STREETS OF Paris
for four hours Paul Mariner a con-
cierge, is suffering from nervous pros
tration as a result go bis gruesome
experience
Mariner while Gus walking met a
friend whom he had not seen for many
years and commented on his miserable
and haggard expression. The friend
declared that h. had been for many
days without food or shelter and felt
very i'll. Mariner offered him his arm
and led him toward a neighboring hos
pital. On the way, seeing that his
friend was abouC to collapse, the kind
hearted concierge took him up in his
arms and carried him.
Arrived at the hospital the lodge.
keeper declared that the man was dead
and refused 10 .gdmit him. Mariner
then went with his burden to a neigh
boris house and asked permission 10 de-
post the body in the hall while he
went for the police. but the neighbor
refused and Mariner set out again with
the body
Superstitious cabmen refused to take
Mariner and his charge aboard, 1t the
police station the officers told him II
they accepted the body they would have
70 arrest the bearer on charge OF
homicide. Finally, after walking many
weary miles with his burden, Mariner
deposited IL at the door Of the morgue.
where II was taken in without delay.
Grave ffaTS are entertained now for
the sanity ~ the modern Samaritan.
whose kind .eartedness led him into
so CHASTITY an adventure.
