CASINO BOWLING ALLEYS.
Newly Renovated Parlors Will Be 1. Opened This Evening.

With its bowling. alleys in first class condition, its pool room entire ly renovated and the skating rink looking spick and span from the eff forts of several workmen, the Casino on East Main street should have a very successful opening this even ing. Not only will the building and parlors themselves greatly interest the, public, but the special attrac- tions arranged by the management for tonight should prove big draw ing card. An orchestra will render music on all of the floors and the public will be agreeably surprised by the numerous improvements made in the building.
 This evening on the bowling alleys there will be match game between the New Haven State league team and five picked from the Water- bury squad.
 The alleys have been put in fine shape by special process, not sim gle bit of blaming having been done. The management also announces that nottelled mineralite balls will be used on the alleys this season. The Casino is the first alley in the state to be equipped with this style ball, and last year there was only one used in Connecticut. It is the very best ball that can be had on the mar ket.
 The chief attraction in the billiard and pool parlor will be an exhibition game between John Hendricks of New York, amateur billiard cham pion of this country, and Ed Futile of this city.
 All the pool and billiard tables have been recovered. Several post seats finished in oak have been add ed to the billiard room, which is one of the largest in the state. The tables are so situated that there Is plenty of room for the players and the persons shooting pool or billiards are never bothered by the player at the next table.
 For a couple of weeks men have been at work on the third floor, which is used for skating rink hio AoiA ID cpiCAuluiy HSHtCu dHu well ventilated, having an excellent floor without even post to obstruct the skaters. The floor has been made as true as possible with a ma chine, which has been getting tho floor in shape night and day for the past week. Miss Agnes Nelson will give an exhibition of fancy skating this evening and will be assisted by another well known roller skater of this city.
 Many visitors are expected from Thomaston, Naugatuck and Water town. who, with the crowd of regu- lar patrons, are likely to pack the Casino. The management extends a cordial invitation to the public to be present this evening to simply look over the place if they do not care to join in the games.

Pretty Hard to Stop the New Yorks Now : ALI the Other
 Resuhs.

New York, Sept, 2 1s,--A long drawn game and with, the second part full of loose and f1eiterskelter playing took tfplace .at the Polo grounds yesterday and was won by the New .Yorks with .farcical ease. The pair of worthies that did the pitching for the Cardinals were wild and ineffective. and once the New Yorks began scoring they gathered in the tafiies' on a rising scale until they had a sufficieucy which warrant ed McGraW excusing several Of his regulars and stopping up the va- cancies with substitutes. McGinnity was knocked out of the box by the Cardinals in the fourth inning and would have met that fate earlier but for splendid support There was the fastest and cleanest sort of field ing in the first. four. innings; then the game went to the other ex- tremes.
 Devlin, Harzog, Bridwell and Penney killed savage smashes in the first three innings by brilliant work, and in the fourth the Cardinals made four hits and only. one run. Poorly judged base running on their part and good throws by Seymour and Donlin accounted for the meager profits from the liberal investment in bingles.. A string of passes and Tenney's bunt gave the New Yorks their first run, and in the fourth they made two runs from four hits.
 A base on balls to Herzog, hit by Bresnahan, a wild pitch, field CTS choice, a hit by Donlin and two errors formed the miscellany that gave the New Yorks three runs in the fifth. In the sixth there was a hit by Bridwell, a sacrifice by Tay- Tor, third infield hit by Penney. winsome waIlop by Herzog, a promenade by Bresnahan, smoking larrup by Donlin and huff by Shaw. Four runs were flushed from this merger of Saffron and skill. ' Penney and Bridwell worked neat coup in this inning. Bridwell was on second and Penney at the bat. The former started. to steal third. which drew Osteen back to the bag. There upon Penney bunted toward third and Osteen couldn't come in in time to field the ball-a bunt and run play, as 1t were.
 When the Cardinals went to Dat in the fifth Taylor was on his way to the reservation where pitchers warm up and in order 10 gain time McGraw made use of ruse recently adopted here by Manager Jimmy McAleer of the St Louis. Browns. He sent his new pitcher, Marquard. to the box, and -Marauard fired few over as If 1imbering up. This gave Taylor a chance to get a few kinks out of his arm and then Marquard stepped aside for the mute, having been merely an honorary participant. The Browns jarred Taylor for three hits and twoJruns in the fifth inning. At that two of them were thrown out at the plate. Raymond was one of those thus exttnguished. His Buglets looked for a soft Spot to fall 'on when making his slide, there by losing time and being retired by 8ridwell's throw to Bresnahan. The Cardinals made a run in the sev- enth on weird battery work. Charles reached first on missed third strike. was pushed to second on a base on balls to Osteen, ambled to the third tabaret on passed ball, and completed the jaundiced iaunt on bad throw by Needham. The score:

sTANDING OF THE CLUBs.
WAGNER GOT HIS TRAIN.
~Pittsburg Shortstop's Chauffeur,
 However, Bowled Woman Over.


 At Pittsburg Hans Wagner's pri- vate chauffeur was hauled before a police magistrate yesterday charged with having run down woman s carriage wh-.e racing for the train. Hans was spilled out of the tonneau and the woman was dumped from her carriage. Hans picked the Wo- man up. and, finding she was not badly hurt, leaned her against a light pole and started on the lope for the station, yelling to a police man, "I'll stand good for all dam ages"
 Hans made the train by long slide, but Earl Kloman, the chauf- feur, was locked up. When arraign- ed Kloman said: Your honor, l simply had to get MT Wagner on that train. He was late. and l ran too fast"
 Couldn't the train go without him?" growled the magistrate.
 No, sir; you know the Pittsburg team couldn't go without MT Wag. ner," said the faithful chauffeur of the champion batsman of the league.
 Oh said the magistrate. who isn't a ball fan, Ill release you If you promise for Wagner that the damage will be made good"
 "Mr Wagner will pay when he comes home with the pennant, equivocated nloman, and he was re- leased forthwith.

WRESTLING
THE "CHIC" LAD DID THE TRICK
Young Stanley of Utica Took . Hard Defeat From Nauga.
 tuck Boy.

Down in Naugatuck last evening a sturdy young wrestler, with the physique of Parker, met his Water loo. when he stacked up against q Naugatuck boy by the name of Chic" Lawson. The defeated boy was Young Stanley of Utica, who, while in the Democrat office yester. day, intimated that the match would not last every long and that Lawson would be on the bottom when the last slap on the back came. The slap came, but 1t was Lawson's back was slapped, for he toppled the Utica boy in two straight falls. It was a crack ing good match and the 400 or more present enjoyed the opening of the wrestling season immensely. Stan ley looked twice the size of the Naug- atuck boy, but he found before he had been many minutes on the mat that he was up against some goods that were all wool and yard wide. Stanley went into the game as If 1t would be only question of when he should be declared the victor. Ho had all the confidence in the early stages of the game and he went after Lawson hot foot. He was soon con vinced that he was up against q pretty tough proposition. Lawson became the aggressor after he had let Stanley extend himself bit and then the Naugatuck boy showed the mettle he was made of. Stanley squeezed out of some pretty tight deals, but finally he fell into back hammer and the jig was up for the first fall. The second fall was se- cured by Lawson very quickly, for he secured scissors hold in five minutes and Stanley again hit tho mat and lost the match.
 In the first preliminary bout Nor ris Enanberg was thrown twice by
 Young Lawson in five minutes and three minutes. Young Blondin of Waterbury defeated Cnaki of Union City in two falls, the first being sa- cured in eleven minutes and the sec ond in ten minutes. Alex Swanson of New York city was the referee.
 Edward J. O'Connell, who was the
 wrestling instructor at Yale and at Cornell, and who has taken part in a number of contests here, announced yesterday that he had been appoint. ed director of athletics at the Multi

 After Smithson and Gilbert re- turned from the Olympic games in London they made an offer to O'Con- nell on behalf of the club and sent his terms to the organization. Word was received from the club yestef- | day that O'Connell could start TAt once and take charge of the athletic affairs. O'Connell left for Portland yesterday. He will have a football team in the field this fall and. will have large class in wrestling, which is his speciality. Walter O'Connell. the brother oi
