The electric light plant of Galena
Ill, was installed In 1898 at a cost OF
$4,000. 1t was sold the other day
for $4,000, but this price included a
twenty-five year light, power and trac'
ton franchise. Under the new con-
tract the city will get practically twice
the amount OF street lighting that was
furnished by the municipal plant at
only 10 per cent greater cost. The sale
met with the unanimous approval OF
the mayor and city council. as the
plant had not been a success. One
account Of 1t says:
ats management was changed as
often as new political cliques gained
power, and at times there was no street
illumination at all. The commercial
service was inferior"

POLO THE RACE IS
 GROWING HOT Waterbury and New Britain Sailing Hard For That Second Place
 Results Saturday.

This is the last week of polo and the fans should all remember 1t is the benefit week. There is the one thing about those benefits games, however. which will make them all the more interesting. Each game is regular ly scheduled one and will count in the standing. Waterbury will have a hard task ahead of her to retain the second position as New Britain is crowding her too close for comfort. Still. we beat Bridgeport last week and we ought to take couple of falls |out of her this week. Waterbury
 will have a greater incentive to win
 both games than has Bridgeport. The
 latter team has the pennant cinched land while We expect that Bridgeport will not play as fast as she might, |still Manager Simmons says he will take both games from Waterbury and let New Britain slide in to second place. This last week will be great
 battle. Friday night is the big bene- fit night for the home team and every fan in the city who is true sport will get down to the Eagles hall and
 give the local players good send off
 At least two thousand people should
 be on hand to see the two best teams | in the league battle against each oth- | CT for the last time this season.

New Haven. April s.-On Monday next Spring fotball practice will start at Yale and continue for two weeks. A punnting contest will be held at the end of each days practice. The practice will be of great importance because of the severe loses Yale will suffer by graduation. This applies especially to the backfield.. where all but two men will be lost.
 New plays and formations in com pliance with the new rules will be tried and the work will undoubtedly count very materially toward the sue cess of the season. Every one who expects to be a candidate for the 'e7 eleven and who is at present engaged in no other athletic work has been asked to go to the practice. Fast men for the back field and heavy men for the line are especially needed.

Hartford. April S.-New Britain won out in the final period with Hart ford at the auditorium on Saturday night. 9 to 6. The only goal in the first period was made by Whipple, who caught pass on the fly from loncoln and drove it home. The floor was very slippery and the players had all they could do to keep on their pins. The floor was pumiced after the first period and there was some faster work. Each team made three goals in the second period. Lincoln broke his skates in the final round and was replaced by Turner. New Britain played a three-rush game and the Hartford defense was unable to break up the flying tandem. The line up and summary:

 YESTERDAY Good Games Played By the Teams in the Junior League on Two
 Fields.

The amateurs got at it yesterday and started the baseball season in good shape. While the City Amateur league will not open until next Suns day the Junior league attracted much attention and some good games were played. The Quakers and the Stanley Parks contested in the first game and for six innings it was a nip and tuck battle, each team passing and re- passing each other. In the seventh inning the Quakers got their batting eyes in working order and when they had finished with Hackett's curves they had driven in eight runs and the game was cinched. The score: RHE. Stanley Parks ..... 10 8 Casey and Quinn; Racket and Ber- gin. Umpire, Patrick Farrell.
 There was batting bee in the second game between the Rosebuds and the Athletics. The Roses were out in full bloom and they made the Athletics look very tired before they had concluded their hammering of the ball. The errors of the Athletics helped, too, in their defeat.

WRESTLING
GOTCH TELLS
 OF THE STARS
Recognizes the Merits of Many Crapplers But Says None of
 Them Can Beat the Turk.

Frank Gotch, the champion catch as-catch-can wrestler, has high opinion of the big Turks as opponents of the graphing game. Gotch was asked recently whom he considered the greatest wrestlers.
 Undoubtedly the giant Turks are the best" Gotch answered; men like Yousouf, Nouroulah and others their size. No white man can hope to cope with these 400 pound hulks unless he can get back of them and work on their feet. I've been looking for some one to show me how to get back of them. Don't let anybody tell you any white man ever beat Nouroulah, for he didn't.
 Tn America we have gallant ar Tray of wrestlers--Whistler, Joe Acton, Strangler Lewis, Tom Jenkins, Farm CT Burns, Dan Mcleod, Charley Olson, There's splendid seven, and then to-day we have Freddie Beell, man only a notch above a middleweight and yet one of the greatest on the mat It is something to hold a cham pionship title in the face of such con- petition as exists in the country of the stars and stripes to-day, and I hope l am not egotistical when I say l am proud to have won my right to defend the American championship" lazy Winter, the bantamweight wrestler who was in E. J. O'Connell's s corner at the Hartford Auditorium last Wednesday night, tackled Dan Hislop of the New York Athletic club in Allingtown on Saturday night and was given the decision after fifteen minutes of work on the mat. His Top supposed lazy was an easy mark and some of the New York Athletic club men who came up into this state with big wad returned with little more than carfare and manicure money. Hislop was willing to quit before the bout went five minutes. He was so badly used up after the match that his seconds had to carry him to the dressing room.
 | Al Christansan, the heavyweight wrestler who is to go against Jim Barns in Springfield on Wednesday night, is making Holyoke his head quarters for the present. He has been wrestling in the south. A Holyoke man will look after Christansan's in- terests while he is in Massachusetts. Christansan is to attempt to flop Barnes three times in an hour.
 At Lewiston last night Joe Collins of Wisconsin defeated James Prokos of Boston, two out of three falls. Pro- kos complained of feeling i'll early in the evening. but went upon the mat saying he would not disappoint the people. Collins got the first fall in 22 minutes and 20 seconds, with a hammerlock and body hold. Prokos got the second fall in IS minutes and 20 seconds. with a half-nelson and farther arm hold. The third fall went to Collins in 4 minutes and 30 seconds. At the close of the contest Prokos declared his opponent to be Walter Beal, instead of Collins.
