There were threeo n the bags and two down when Hazel advanced to the tally board, Bert had his eye with him, a single being pumped into center field.
 It was the first win of the league season by the local coppers, a big celebration being held after the last Waterbury cop was out.

Because it has been advertised that they were to play the Bridgeport Brass team. the Union Typewriter team which club has declared it's intention of quitting the Industrial league, will play their scheduled game for to-mor- row. The. contest will be run in con- nection with the field day of the Bridgeport Brass Go. Mutual Benefit The field day was selected for to-mor- row by the association because of the fact that the team of that factory was scheduled to play the Yost team, as they were considered the classiest team in the league For that reason the Yost players have reconsidered their action from withdrawing at once. They will take final action next week, when the factory will again be in operation after two weeks Lay off. Johnson and Wilson will be the Yost battery, while Kellogg and Franz will star for the Brassies.
 Two games will be played at Sea- side Park, both of the contests taking place on the big diamond. The first will be between those two East Side rivals from each side of the railroad the U. M.

will weigh about 146 pounds when he climbs into the ring. he says, while Burke will scale at 158 pounds at t6 o'clock. Lewis is solid hitter and a clever boxer, but a majority of his ring triumphs have been at the ex- pense of second raters. Burke is a slugger pure and simple. He is a world beater if i1e thinks an opponent is the least bit afraid of him, but is said to lack heart if he stacks up against gruelling punishment He has always believed that he can whip Lewis, though, and will go into the battle tonight with unlimited confi- dence. The men will begin operations about 10:3O o'clock.

INFORMER AS TO PRELIMI- NARY ARRANGEMENTS.

Chicago. Aug. 1S.-"Sam' Berger, acting as the representative of James J. Jeffries, in arranging for bout be- tween the former worlds champion, and the present holder of the pugilistic title, "Jack'' Johnson. was unperturb- ed yesterday by the report that his authority to represent the big fighter had been repudiated by Jeffries.
 "Mr. Jeffries has undoubtedly been misinformed as to what was done Wednesday and believes concluded a final agreement with Johnson" said Berger. 'I have cabled to him just what I did in negotiating preliminary arrangements with Johnson. as he had given me specific authority to do. The agreement signed Wednesday is not and never was considered by me as final. Indeed. in it's wording it refers to the settlement of the final details after the club offer is accepted
 "The agreement contains only the preliminary articles. and I am satis- fled MT. Jeffries will approve what I have done.''
 Jack Johnson. pugilist, was ar rested yesterday for exceeding the au- tomobile speed limit on Michigan ave- nue and released Mn bond.

The club officials are worrying not a lit tie because they have been unable to secure definite word from either KetchelI or Britt.

It Ketchen goes back on his agreement to box before the Fairmont Club it is believed that he will lose many friends in the East and that he will strengthen the belief in some quarters that he does not care partic- uiarly for Langford's game

which are as follows:
Judge Engerud has been a stock

some time.
Largely through the efforts OF A. K
Tweeto Of Ajbercrombie number OF
other well do Norwegians over the

and with the proceeds Of the sale OF

control of The Fran and viii hammer
along the same line as hitherto The
new men associated with me have
neither asked nor received any pledges
or promises regarding the future
course of the paper They have gone
into the deal for the sole purpose OF
putting The Fran on a more solid
