CONNECTICUT LEAGUE STANDING

HOW happy and relieved every one looks, now that the Connecticut league baseball season is at an end. For months the local fans have suffered, but now that the season is really at an end, all even the players are relieved. Of course there are not at present any prospects of a new management but we have that Danaher will sell his franchise and that some one else with a little more push and one one who has little more regard for the welfare of the thousands of sport lovers in this city. All the players who finished the season were signed for next year by Danalrer, but of course this does not mean that the men who finished the season or 1t might be said tried to finish the season, will represent New Haven when the whistle blows for the opening of the base ball season of 1908. Besides Sherwood, Hayward, Kennedy, Bunyan, Jope, Nolte, Corcoran, Law Ter, Purington,. Fletcher, Connell, and Brown, Danaher expects to bring forth some new and better material If some one should offer Connie and Dan, the price they desire 1t would mean brighter prospects for the coming sea- son, but as things now stand there Is but little hope of a buyer of the terms the brothers desire.

Manager Dowd's men worked hard for the rag and deserve their victory. Dan O'Neil of Springfield, Manager Durant of Waterbury and Clarkin of Hartford, | all send their congratulations to the daunty manager of the Ponies. The Authors although finishing second, have had a hard road to run upon, caused mainly by the jealous feeling developed by the other New Haven manager. Oneil's team started the sea- 1 son well and were picked to finish first but unexpected calamities, especially Injuries to players put them in the background for several weeks during the middle of the season, They sprint led, they spurted, but it was all in vain Holyoke had obtained Burke from the Boston nationals and by his great strike work pulled out of several bad holes where defeat seemed certain and climbed to victory which they have re. tained to the finish. By winning the double header last Monday they clinch- ed the title and the purse and since then have been resting on their laurels Each Holyoke reeeived gold watcf fob before the final game with Hart ford and Manager Dowd was presented with set of silver brushes.
 Manager Clarlin will also reserve nearly ali his players in his list fol next year. They are Buckley ant Mueller, pitchers; John O'Leary, whe Iof late has been doing good work a the second bag, but was previously { catch; Harry Moves, who has captainet the team all season and whom ther' lis little better player in the circuit Eddie Justice, shortstop; Charlie Eel

 been working in the last few games has shown up so we'll that he has beel signed for the next season,
 Manager Tom Dowd will reserve fo
 1908 all the players left to the Holyok club, but they are not very numerous
 as the major leagues have drafted sev
 eral and others have been sold.
 Thoughts of baseball now glide iron
 our troubled minds and sports such a
 pool, football and bowling slip silent
 ly in and there will secretly remain en
 closed until, one by one, after glitterin
 for two or three months, and bein
 faithfully patronized by the sport lov
 CTS of the Elm City, they will slip fror
 our midst as baseball has silently step
 ped from our present, erasing all it
 impressions.
