 It is safe betting that Norwich will never again do the same to Eddie Farley.
 Proud Hartford, humbIed in the dust and by New Haven, whom she held in contempt as an adversary.
 A season on the bleachers won't change the color of a U. S. x Co blue serge suit. s15 suits, yours for $l1.5O.
 Joe Connor will make his first ap- pearance here tomorrow when the Springfield team arrives. Joe will be behind the bat and We will try and entertain him. Put 'em over"
 Waterbury was not even let near the Hartford grounds Monday to see whether there would be a chance to play. Pretty state of affairs when one manager has the right say just what he pleases and the others must acquiesce.
 Great hitting by Lachance and Schincel yesterday and great fielding by the rest of the team. Never w;.j a pitcher better supported in tight places than was Eddie Farley.
 Dan o'Neil says he is going through this week without a loss and by that he means he will defeat Wat erbury tomorrow. We have a pie ture of him doing it. We propose to go through the week ourselves with out defeat. vH
 If Barrett had not misjudged that fly in center field yesterday, Gus ooffel' might have been robbed of a three saeker. It is hard for a new nan to get accustomed to that out 1eld with it's many shadows reflect Ing from the grand stand.
 That fellow Bastian gives me leart trouble every time he goes af- CT a ball." said fan yesterday. and yet like him because he never 'hirks and knocks down more hits han he loses.

FULL OF SURPRISES.

Detroit. July 24-The delayed day of opening the grand circuit meeting was full of surprises. The Geers en- tries were beaten from the start The spectacular fire in stable c formed the pyrotechnic display of the day. In the first race Quintell, sold at S32, against $10T on the field. was never & contender, and Burton's stallion, Fe- dora's Athol. won two heats and the race easily. Genteel H., set back twice for running. was second.
 In the chamber of commerce stake Geer's Dan S., the equal gavorite with Williams Hidalgo. was distanced iu the first heat and Hidalgo never reacb- ed better than third While Star. with the unknown Reproachless, had things easy in the second and thinI heats. The 2:1S trot proved easy for Carlo, the entry of the HilIsdaIe farm, Mamaroneck. \. Y.
 The crowd was a record hreakiaR one. and il Is said that ST5.nO pass ed through the pool boxes. The facts that no favorite won and the touted Geers entries failed to make good put the speculatOrs in the air.

The weather was ideal, the track in fine condition and a large crowd of enthusiasts ill attendance.

However, the best time was made by Our King and Daniel J. The 2:l0 pace also pro- vided good sport, Jennie w, a second choice, winning from the favorite, Holock M., the finishes being closely contested.

STAMP MACHINES
WILL Be TESTED
Valuable in Canada Where
Stamps Are Not Sold on
Sunday.

A number Of the stamp vending ma
chimes recently inspected by a special
postal commission are being put in or
der for a public trial test
An English machine submitted TO the
commission was found 10 be equipped
for the use of English money only. This
machine is being overhauled by its
owner, and will be changed 10 receive
coin manufactured by Uncle Sam.
The remaining machines, about a haIf
dozen designs IN all. that are to be
given the public test at various places
IN Washington. are being perfected and
MADE ready for the trial.
II was said at the Postoffice Depart
ment today that the machines would
probably be ready for the trial test by
the first of December.
Canada is making ARRANGEMENTS to IN
stall stamp vending machines, the Eng
lish machine that Is TO be exhibited in
Washington having been selected for
this purpose.
1t is said 10 be illegal for hotels in
Canada TO sell stamps on Sunday, which
makes the innovation a necessary and
popular one there.
