 The, Brooklyn Athletic club base ball team does not seem able to shake off that losing streak which with a little hard luck (the real kind) is keeping them near the cellar tene- ment in the City league.

 Anthony Grablauc, aged IA, son of MT and Mrs Charles Grablauc, was fishing on the banks of the Mad river near the Waterbury Buckle factory on Saturday afternoon when suddenly clouds of steam came out from pipe nearby.

The steam was so thick around him that he could see nothing and thoroughly frightened he sent forth some pierc- ing cries. He finally got out of the hot bed but not before the steam had severely scalded him, so much so that medical aid had to be summoned.
