CORP. W. D. RILEY FIRST

The annual brigade rifle match start-
ed at the East Haven rifle range yes
terday morning and continued all day.
the 80 men VINO are competitors In the
event making some OF the finest shots
ever seen on any rifle range In the
state. The targets were as follows:
200 yard slow FIRE; 600 yard slow fire;
500 yard slow fire and 200 yards rapid
fire. The shooting on these ranges was
finished yesterday and the fifteen high
est score men Of yesterday will no
doubt make up the state rifle team
which will compete In the national RI
fife tournament which will be held al
Fort Clinton, o.. which Is about 20
miles from sandusky and where the
finest rife range In the country Is sit
uated. There was considerable delay I'M
starting the shooting yesterday morn-
ing owing to the fact that the 600 yard
range was not ready, but when this
range was fixed the events were run
off quickly and smoothly The skirmish
will be finished today. The following
are the complete final scores in order
of the fifteen high score men OF yes-
terday and 1t is doubtful IL there will
be any changes to this makeup after
todays shooting, and 1t is believed that
this will be the team to go to Ohio:
Ranges. 200 rapid fire; 200 slow fires
600 slow fire: 800 slow fire

NO MORE CANDY.
First Haseman Has Quit Ball for Good
Bono i'm Ncw York

--BonC IN new YORK
While speaking to The Journal Court
err reporter at Waterbury yesterday,
Candy Lachance, who previously
played first base for the New Haven
nine said that he would probably have
nothing more to do with baseball,
either with the New Haven team or
any other team He said he is think
ing seriously of giving up baseball and
intends to leave the diamond. Yester-
day a bundle wac brought to the New
Haven bench, which when opened,
proved to be the uniform Of Candy
Lachance. The players on percelving
this looked about for Candy and notic-
ed him going from the field. They
shouted to him but all Candy did was
to shout back and leave the field,
without stopping to see the game.
He stated that the reason he left the
team was not on account Of any quar-
rel with the management but Just be-
cause he was getting eick Of the game.
Lachance has played with the Boston
Americans for five years and has been
a member Of that team when they won
the world championship, From there he
went to the Providence team and then
to the Waterbury nine. He last played
on the local nine playing good ball on
first.
George Bone, playing manager Of the
New Haven team, yesterday went to
New York and will probably bring
back some new men today,

= Manager Durant remembering the
catastrophe which resulted in letting
his pitcher stay In too long, sent out
his new prize Eastman, who halls
from the North Adams team. Eastman
, the new addition to the twirling feet is
ahusky individual and comes here with
a widespread reputation as a hard
slugger of the first water. Although he
failed to get any home runs still be

I fence--foul luckily for George Bones
men. When he replaced Sillery he

Five bingos were secured from him
and that was enough for by punching
them and good work in stealing bases,
the visitors completely left the locals
behind. The other twirler who met his
waterloo was the ever genial Phil Cor
coran. Phil withstood the local swath-
ers for FIVE innings and then retired.
h Joe stoup replaced him and after hit
ting the first man, settled down and
did excellent pitching.
Zacher has recovered his batting eye
getting four singles out Of five chances.
Simmons when the score was 5 to
against his team, lined out pretty
three-bagger knocking in two men and
practically winning the game for the
locals failed to score after that. George
Bones men just to make sure got three
more runs In the ninth.
Joe O'Rourke, who played last year
for Waterbury and this year for St
Louis Nationals made his debut. He
made pretty catch and his two bag
ger in the third secured the lead fol
the locals The catch by Connell In the
seventh also was a feature of the game.

years champion against Little to-day.
Little was never for a moment in
the running After his decisive de-
feat of B. G. Wright yesterday It was
expected that he would give Larned
at least hard fight, but such proved
not to be the case, for Larned was
at his best, and Little did not have a
chance to get started.

ASSEMBLY MAKEUP
Data of Members of House and Senate Who Will Next Con
 vene at Hartford.
MAJORITY 188
Have 239 Seats and Democrats Have Only 5t-Thrce Senators Are
 Seventy Years Old

The officials in the office Of the
 state secretary have had printed the
 preliminary roll of members of the general assembly Tae document con-
 tains great deal of interesting data
 of a biographical character relating
 to members of the senate and of the
 house. The two branches of the gen.
 eral assembly will consist of 2a0 members. Politically, they are diyid-
 ed as follows Republicans, 239; dem
 ocrats, 5i. The republicans will there
 fore have majority of lSS on q
 joint ballot, in case every member votes. In the session of 1907 tnere were in both branches 9l6 republicans and 7i democrats II will thus be seen that. numerically, the democrats in the general assembly will not he as strong as they were at the last session. Perhaps as the late Samuel Fessen den so happily said of the democratic
 minority of the house of 1895, of which he was speaker, they make up
 for deficiency in numbers by superior fitness for legislative work. Tae lem ocrats will he twenty-three less than they were two years ago. In the sen
 ate the democratic minority Is redur-
 ed from eight to four, and in the
 house from sIxty-six to forty-seven. All the senators in the session of 1909 arc of American birth, but two
 Thomas Bowen of the Fourteenth dis-
 trict, who was born in Wales, and
 John Hurley, who first opened his eyes to the light of day in the Emer-
 aid isle. The youngest member Cf the senate will be Joseph W. Alsop of the Fifth district, who is thirty-two years old. The age of the oldest sem
 ator is seventy, but there are three senators who arel recorded in the roll as having reached that age--A w. Phillips of the Seventeenth district, Isaac W. Brooks of the Thirteenth and Andrew G. Barnes of the Tnlrty- second It will require record of thc precise date of the birth of these venerable senators to determine who is the oldest, The ncXt highest ago tO that of tho youngest senator is thirty
 three years and there arc three sen ators entered as being of that age Walter l. Goodwin of the Second, r, r. I.atmer of the Eighteenth and W. I. Allyn of the Nineteenth In tle house there are thirteen members of foreign birth, and the countries of their nativity are AS follows: Italy 1, Sweden l. Canada 1 Scotland 1, Ger | many .. England ?, Ireland ?, Tho
 oldest member of the house is Oliver | w. Mack Of Portland, who enjoyed the same distinction the last session, | The venerable legislator is cighty-ono years old. The youngest member ie John Buckley, Of the town of Union
