AUTO RAGE WRECK.
Clarence Mckenzie Thrown
 High In Air to Death.
ENDURANCE TEST HAS SAD ENDING
New York Motor Club Car Smashed at Clinton Heights by Trolley on Albany Line When They Met
 at Fatal Crossing.

ALBANY, N. Y., June 1.-The POO mile automobile endurance run to Al bany under the auspices of the New York Motor club, in which twenty-sev- en runabouts and touring cars started. came to tragic end for one of the leading automobiles in the race when within sight of Albany. it was denlolish- ed in collision with heavy trolley car
 Clarence Mckenzie, the wealthy pres ident of the Standard Brake company of New York, was thrown high in the air and instantly killed.
 Howard Mosher, the we'll known bi- cyclist, ice skater and all around ath- lete, the official observer on the car, had his right arm, right leg and left ankle broken and may have serious in- ternal injuries.
 James Swan of New Britain, Conn.,, the driver, sustained less serious inju- ries. These three men were the only occupants of the motor car.
 MT. Mckenzie and his young wife had planned to make the run together as the guests of the Corbin Motor cor poration, which started the ill fated car. MT. Mckenzie was an enthusi- astic automobilist, and his wife has often accompanied him on similar trips, but after they were dressed to go Mrs. Mckenzie suddenly decided that she would not make the trip. .-
 T don't know why it is, but I feel that we should not go today. I fear that something may happen" she told her husband. Mir. Mckenzie had prom ised to go and started with the car.
 Just opposite Albany and across the river Is stiff hill, known as Clinton Heights. Just over the brow of the hill on Q steep grade crossing is the single line track of the Albany and Hudson Electric railway.
 A large hotel near the top of the hill shuts out view of these tracks, and as the Corbin ear climbed the hill it is doubtful if any one of its occupants knew that dangerous railroad cross ing was only few yards ahead on the down grade.
 Swan saw the approaching trolley car when he struck the down grade in the soft mud left by recent rains and tried to stop the car, but it skidded and turned on to the track with it's rear to the speeding car
 With a crash the three occupants of the auto were sent so high in the air that one of the flying human forms struck the network of telephone wires strung beside the track and was stop ped in Its flight to be hurled back with tremendous force to the earth. This form was that of MT. Mckenzie. The runabout was torn to pieces, and parts of 1t were found more than seventy feet away from the point of the col lislon.
 Swan, who had fallen In soft earth, was quickly upon his feet and saw the body of Mir. Mckenzie lying across the tracks.
 Are you hurt?" Swan called to Mo Kenzie.
 No" came the strong and distinct reply. By the time Swan reached his side Mir. Mckenzie was dead.
 Mosher was lying some distance away in a helpless and mangled con- dition. He was given every attention and with Swan was carried to Albany.

THE DIAMOND.
New Catcher Signed By Waterbury
 Has Good Record.

Holyoke, March 12.--Among the many ball players who will try to add to Holyoke's fame this year as pro- ducer of diamond stars is Eugene IO'Leary, son of Alderman Dennis lO'Leary. He has signed as a catcher with the Waterbury team of the Con- necticut league and his friends arc as sure as he himself is that he will make good.
 Young O Leary, Is ball player with several years of experience that should now be valuable to him. One of the most important factors that should make for his success lies in the fact that for several seasons he was catcher for Mike Lynch. now of the Pittsburg team, and previously the most wonderful pitcher, college baseball had produced.
 O'Leary is 25 years old, feet 10A inches in height and weighs 1S5 lpounds. His first prominence as a ball player came in his career at tho Holyoke high school. There he caught from 1896 to 1900, Lynch be- ing pitcher Of the most formidable array of schoolboy talent to be found in the state. Jack Hannifin of the New York Giants was shortstop. John Quigley, who afterwards played with Holy Cross college, was at third base. Mac Miller, later of Dartmouth, was at second and Jim Quill, the famous former Yale football player, was the right fielder.
 When O'Leary finished his high school course in 1900. he had many chances to get into line with some college team, the rules of amateurs not being so closely drawn then as they are now. He preferred to cast his lot with independent teams and has since played uniformly good ball. Last season was his best year. He played with the Chicopee Falls team of the Ri State league and was one of the best hitters of the league. He also did good work for the Bristol team, of Connecticut. during a por- tion of last season, his batting being particularly strong.

WRESTLING
YOUNG TURK
 DOING WELL
Threw Three Men in Less Than Sixty Minutes in His Last
 Match-Parker in Matches.

That the Young Turk" of this city is making good down in the southern part of the country is very evident from the returns that keep coming in about his matches. In Knoxville the other night he wrestled three men and threw them all. The Knox vile Journal and Tribune speaks of the match as follows:
 "The preliminary was between Rigsby Long and Winick, three local lightweights, and Barson. the little Turk. The Turks object was to throw all three one fall each in sixty minutes and he accomplished his purpose.
 The first victim was Rigsby, and the Turk handed him the bee in six teen minutes by stinging him with a double Nelson.
 Long, the infant Olson, was the next one to get his dose, and he got it, but swallowed hard. Barson's rolls seeming to stick, but bar lock and half-Nelson did the work.
 Winick, the third and last, was a harder proposition and stayed 2Sk minutes with the Turk with only four minutes to go, but he couldn't go them and was forced to succumb to a double Nelson, and the Turk was given the decision"

THE AMATEURS.

Roger Brothers will play the crack New Britain team which will appear here in the preliminary game on Thursday night. 1t was so decided at a meeting of the managers of the Amateur Polo league last evening. there was no difficulty in reaching this understanding as was at first expected, the names of the teams were placed in a hat and the name of the Roger Bros team was with drawn: this manner was believed to be as fair way as any so as to give all an equal chance.
 Matters concerning the benefit game which is to be given on Friday evening for Thomas Bockwitch were discussed, favorable reports were heard from all hands and the affair promises to be a big success. The Eagles association have kindly turn ed over the hall to the managers. Managers Halliwell and MeMahon have rendered the managers the use of their help at the hall, have prom ised to assist in making the affair success. and are willing to do what ever tne mdndkeFs require OI tnem. policemen have given their services free. so that all that is needed tO make the affair success is a little hustle on the part Of all the mana gers.
 Owing to the fact that the New Britain amateurs will play here on Thurstsy night it has been necessary to re-arrange the schedule which is as follovs. Tonight. first game, Hamilton Parks vs South Ends. and second game. Roger Bros vs Second Wards Thursday night. Benedict ( Burnhsms will have it out with Com. pzuy C in the first game. and Roger Bros will face the New Britain ana Iteurs in the second There is ns Iehange Ia the scheduls for the beue Ift game. however. and the game

PARKER STILL BUSY.

Harvey Parker won at wrestling from Sam Anderson at the Boston theater, Fall River, before big house. He lost the first fall to An derson in Al minutes, on hammer lock and general mixture. In the second he got good grip on his man and in 30 seconds picked him up and dropped him for crashing fall. The last fall also went to Parker in 25 minutes, harnmerlock settling the business. Anderson some months ago won from Parker at Norwood. the latter injuring knee. They had fall each when Parker stopped.
 There is a club in Fall River that wants Parker to meet Bothner for a $500 purse the, last part of the month. Parker told them that he was agreeable if Bothner was.
 The Brockton man is also wanted at Biddeford to wrestle Wilfred Bar rett, the popular idol down that way. This match may take plae within the month.

BASKETBALL.
All Waterburys Are Ready For the
 Naugatucks.

Monday night is basketball night at the Eagles hall. Polo will be for- gotten for night and the Naugatuck and All Waterbury basketball lives will meet to play off the third game of their series. Naugatuck took the first, the All Waterburys took the second and the third game will be won only after a bitter fight.
 Naugatuck will send up a large number of supporters. There will be plenty of seats, and one trouble with the last game will be avoided; in that contest the reserved seats were all sold long before the game and late corners were unable to find any room But there will be plenty of room at Eagles hall .-..-
 Both teams are practicing hard. It is not known as yet whether the All Waterburys will play the Winsted team here. Manager Sullivan of the latter team wants to play at Eagles hall for $100 a side. winner to take gate receipts. He will probably be sent an invitation to come to the game Monday night.

POLO WHITES.

Ready for tonight.
 Dicky Pierce is on his way.
 We must outroot the Bridgeports.
 New Haven got another surprise last evening.
 George Bone got in the game for two periods, but he could not ward off defeat.
 John Allen is again on the cold, cold world and yet he can give some of the goal tenders in this league cards and spades and good beating ill front of the cage. ,ar<
 The despised Wallingfords are making some of the teams think bit before deriding them any further. That bunch should not be at the tail end of the league.
 Bridgeport with her hundreds of rooters and her star aggregation of polo players will storm this city to- night and we must give them a good thrashing. A victory tonight means a close grasp on the pennant
 Wallingford has released Goal Ten der John Allen and signed Pence, late of the Youngstown, Ohio club, Pence played corking good game last night and look to be the real goods. @
 New Haven's new halfback, Paul Gardiner, did not show up. A tele- gram received just before the game stated that Gardiner would leave sharon, Pa, to-day. The sharon man. agement heard that he was coming east and sat on the treasury strong box containing Gardiners salary.
 Barney" Doherty, a dead ringer for Bob FitZsimons. played a wonder. ful game at halfback for Wallingford last night. He is fast on his feet. d strong blocker and when he hits the ball everybody ducks.-New Haven Palladium.
 The Clinton polo team of Bridge. port through Manager Frank Reba 340 Newfield avenue, has issued q challenge to the Benedict X Burnham team of this city and would like to play the locals just as soon as the game could be arranged.
 Some one must be trying to give Frank Sutton record as a goal ten der. One report sent out of the game last night gives him 67 stops and An derson of New Britain 57. Neither one had fifty, according to later re ports.
 If any Bridgeport rooter has horn tonight some of the cranks ought tt drop him on to the playing surface and let the poloists use him for the ball. All the Bridgeport papers arc kicking on the use of the horns dowr there.
 Billy Hanna threw a fit when that last ball went fin, tying the score ir New Britain last evening. He want ed an officer to arrest Murray for 1 burglar. but the officer patted Billy on the back and told him they would win anyway. The last seen of th' bluecoat was when Billy was chasiDs him up East Main street after LoX son won the game.
 1 Word hard tonight boys and DegiI early. Send back that special trair with mourning draperies hanging from the outside. X victory to-nign means q whole lot in the race for tn' pennant. We have just as good tean as any in the league and Dicky Pierre is not the whole thing by long shot
