THE CRIDIR0N
All waisrburys and Films 10 Meet Iu The Last Game of The
 Season.

The All-Waterburys vii. probably
 play their last game Of the season
 Tomorrow and with theI Films of
 this city, not the Films of New Ha- ,yen. Manager Walker of the Acorns |spf Bridgeport wanted to have All Waterbury go down there tomorrow.
 but Manager Lawlor could not think
 of it, as he had arranged game
 with the Films. However If he can
 arrange game for one week from t0-morrow with the Acorns. he will
 gladly do so Naugatuck too wants fo arrange game, but as that team
 has not been playing all season, 1t
 looks as though 1t might be a catch
 penny scheme on the part of the
 Naugatucks, just as the season is
 coming to close However in the game to-morrow the fans will see
 some of the real article. The Films
 have been beaten but once this sea-
 son and that time up in Thomaston, when they did not have their right
 lineup. They do not fear All-Wa.
 terburys or any other team in the
 state and they say that Manager Lawlor's aggregation will get the
 surprise of their lives tomorrow.
 The l-Waterburys do not hold the
 Films cheaply by any means and they will go into the game with as strong a lineup as they did against All- Brooklyn last Thursday. The game will start at 2:45 sharp, with Johnny Clifford of Naugatuck as referee. The lineup tomorrow will be as follows: All-Waterbury - Mulligan and

The Deer Season.

Manchester, N. H., Nov 2S.-The legalized open season for hunting deer in New Hampshire's seven south. ern counties which opens soon, will be curtailed two days because of the omission of the word inclusive" in the law. As generally understood the season was to open December l and continue until the 18th, but Att torney General Eastman, to whom the matter was referred, interprets the meaning of the word from which precedes the first date and '.until'' which precedes the second az excluding both December 1 and De. cember Is. As the law prohibits the carrying of firearms on Sundays the season will be restricted to eleven dayh

The matter was not finally adjusted until yesterday, when Captain Badger re- ferred the question to the navy de- partment. The other officials of the game win he Al Sharpe of Yale, ref cree; Carl Marshall of Harvard. field judge, and Dr W. x. Torrey of Penn sylvania. 1inesman.

BASE BALL NOTES.

John McGraw need not worry
 about Rube Marquard, says Charley Carr, manager of the Indianapolis team. We worked the life out of the tall left handler last summer and
 l don't wonder that he fizzled in the
 one chance he had with the New
 Yorks, but he was game and tried to do his best. With winters rest I look for Marquard to be worth every dollar the New York club paid for him."
 Norman Elberfeld, former mana ger of the Highlanders, says: Stall ings is fine man to work for, but I would not be at all opposed to being traded to Washington. It is near my home in Lynchburg. I worked with Stallings in Detroit and I know him to be one of the greatest men in the game to-day, so that getting away from him would cause a regret, as feel sure that he will make suc- cess of the New York Americans next year" "F
 George Capron, the former Minne- sota fullback, and one of McGraw's capture for the 1909 Giants, and Or val Overhaul, the big pitcher of the Cubs, played football on opposing teams at Chicago yesterday. Capron Ifs captain of a professional eleven in Minneapolis and Overall is a guard on Chicago team explained by Wal ter Eckersall, the former University of Chicago star. These two teams were the principals in yesterdays fray. The score Is still unknown. Overall was football.star at the Uni yersity of California a few years ago.
 Who says fame is worthless? Nor deeai Brown cashed his reputation out in Indiana the other day. Brown and some friends were hunting quail and in following a fine eovey strayed on some posted property. An irate German farmer captured the party and was arranging to take them be- fore justice of the peace. He was told taht Brown was one of his pris- oners, but refused to believe it until the three fingered "phenom" exhibit ed his maimed hand. Then the far mer changed front, invited the hunt CTS to dinner and gave them permis- sion to hunt on his acres as long as they cared to.
 President Ebbets of the Brooklyn club denied yesterday that his base ball property was on the market and said that he would not put a price upon 1t under any circumstances He declared that he hoped to secure Bill Dahlen to manage the Brooklyns next season. Harry Stevens. the ca. terer, has been trying to buy the Brooklyn club for several weeks and says he stands ready to meet any terms that Ebbets sees fit to name. In regard to Dahlen Dovey. the Bos- ton Magnate, said yesterday that Bad Bill would remain in the Hub and that he had never. made an agree nent with the Brooklyn president to release the noted ahortstop.

POLO.
Frank Sutton of This City Is Play
 ing Great Goal for New Haven.

In one of the loingest, most tire some drawn out polo contests that local followers of the sport have ever witnessed, the New Haven team took a rather exciting game from Wild Charlie" Farrell and his bunch from Fall River last night at the Quinni- piac rink. To do it, however, an ov- ertime period was required and then 1t took George Bone, the local second rush, over ten minutes to put the ball by Cashman, the visiting goal tend.
 "Fido" Sutton played very good game, almost losing the game by be- coming over anxious and leaving his cage to ward off the attack of Hig- gins and Farrell, and then re-win- ming it by driving the ball the length of the rink. caging goal thereby. Score. New Haven 5, Fall River 4

COCK FIGHTS IN FRANCE. Officials Tolerate Them--Are Among Most Interested Spectators.


 Cock fighting is forbidden by law in France: it is only tolerated The same condition in regard to various affairs also exists in America, al though here efforts are made to cloak the breach of justice In France, however, the offenders have the spirit to act openly. Thus, at recent leocking main heldeat Auehel, town of 12,000 inhabitants, the mayor and commissary of police were both in- terested spectators, and even con- sented to have their pictures taken amidst their discriminating surround ings.
 No fewer than forty-eight 'so- cieties" fought nearly 300 birds in 1b0 battles to decide the champion ship of the north of France. The fighting began at 10 o'clock in the morning and was continued until S:30 i'll the evening. The brutal business had been advertised to tho public for days in advance. The contests took place in the Salle de Gymnastique, large and  well-lighted hall, with d gallery built especially for the crowd. Some 5000 spectators kept up continual babblo of betting and cheering on their en- tries or jeering at those that showed the white feather The birds, full feathered and full combed, but wear ing steel spurs with needle points were thrown together in an inclosed pit measuring twelve feet by eight feet, erected in the middle of the hall Wire netting fenced in the pit and the floor was covered with tan- bark
 of course, the law forbids cock fighting" prominent police official stated. But it is impossible to stop 1t. If we tried we should have a revolution among these miners, near ly every one of whom breeds and trains fighting cocks The deputy for Auchel has offered a magnificent objet dart to the owner of the cham pion of this tournament"

Indian, in race of twenty-five miles or more, to be decided on the Toronto race track. Dorando is under con- tract to P. T. Powers and Harry Pollok for four months, and these promoters have been urged to have the conqueror of Johnny Hayes go to Canada. In Toronto Longboat has a big following, and if a match with Dorando is arranged it is believed that crowd of at least 10000 will gather at the track Dorando is willing to meet any man in the world at the Marathon distance. and before the winter ends 1t Is probable that he will be starter in an inter- national race to be run in the Madi- son Square garden, the other com petitors being Hayes, Longboat and Shrubb, the famous English profess siOnal now in this country. But Do- rando's managers believe that he should tackle Longboat first, as the Indian is a runner of remarkable prowess and is good drawing card. Hayes is anxious to race the Italian again and after the new year match between them will doubtless be arranged. The success of the De- rando-Hayes race last Wednesday demonstrated that indoor foot racing if properly conducted can be made most profitable venture. The gross receipts of Wednesdays affair were not so large as at first reported All told a trifie more than $13,000 was taken in. Of the great crowd at least 2,5o0 persons were deadheaded. The expenses were heavy b,its there was substantial profit for the pro moters.

with becoming modesty, reports the

TELEGRAPHING TIME
Eleven Thousand Miles of Wire
MonOpOlized by the Operator.
Every Beat of the Arteries of Com
meree Suspended While He RIA
AIpuIatsa ths Keys-An Impress
siw@ Performance.

"How We Set Our Watches, by a
Star" Is told by W. s. HARDWOOD in St.
Nicholas, who says:
"It Is three minutes to nine o'clock
at night. The official in charge Of a
great observatory, the Goodsell OBJ
seryatory, Mortified, Mimi, is pre-
pairing TO send out the time to the
people living in his section of Amer
lea. For 60 seconds he rattles away
on a elegraph-instrument at his
desk, spelling out the word time,
time, time;" then he waits an in
slant. Then he turns to his tele-
graph-key again. Eleven thousands
of miles of wire are open to him; he
IS ruler of them all. Every tele-
graph-instrument in all the vast ter
ritory of which the Goodsell observa-
tory is the center is silent; every
operator has taken his hand from his
key; throughout the whole length Of
these thousands of miles there is a
strange silence.
1.-THE seconds are slowly ticking
away. Above the head of the OBJ
server there is a great observatory
clock. At precisely two minutes to
nine, after the telegraphers all along
the miles of wire have been notified
and have withdrawn their hands from
the keys, the wires are switched into
a connection with the very clock it
self, and all along the eleven thou
sands of miles there is no sound but
the tick, tick, tick of the observatory
clock. Every beat of the great
arteries of commerce is stopped;
every throb Of the news of all lands
going out night by night over these
wires from the great heart of the
world ceases even the sad messages
of death and suffering, as well as the
gay ones that tell of little babies
born and young folks married and
reunions of friends promised-all
these must wait while the great
clock on the wall makes itself under
stood in the language Of time and
eternity over these many thousands
of miles
Something strangely solemn is in
ones thoughts as he stands beside
the observer amid the silent seconds
while the clock ticks on. Whoever is
listening at the wire along its
course, waiting to set his watch,
whether he he railroad employee or
some man in a large jewelers. cstab-
lishment where the people go to get
their timepieces regulated, knows the
system, and knows that there is
sudden pause just before the exact
stroke OF nine o'clocls-a broken beat
in the ticking. Then all carefully
note their timepieces as the clock in
the observatory ticks the nine-o'clock
second. Thus they can tell to the
second whether their watches are
fast or show or precisely right
Attached to the clock is simple
device-a wheel with teeth in Ito
Gated behind the secondhand, which
breaks the current at each even sec
ond. Thus the clock is ticking the
time over the whole stretch of wire
covering the thousands of miles of
territory in the field of this particu-
lar observatory"
