 New Britain, May 1S-"He that laughs last laughs best'' didn't work
 out here yesterday afternoon in the
 game with Bridgeport. The locals put
 up a hard fight in the ninth and the
 fans hugged themselves as two men
 were showed over the plate, but then | with two outs and two men on bases
 Dunlop famed. It was a. glorious
 smile, however, as long as it existed. It was an exciting climax to the game every way except by title. The record
 on the score board stood at the close to against Hanna's aggregation. The visitors had a lean record up to
 the sixth, when they took all their
 trophies. Wells,> who had been pitch
 ing a good game, was touched by and
 his support fell off.
 With two of the Cubans, Almeida and Marsons, sick with Yankee grip, Chappie Ward was stationed in center field and Dunlop, the youth from Mer- iden, at third. Chappie isn't sched- uled for a number one fielder, and when he let a ball drop over his head without touching it, the fans made all lowances. It was the commencement of several errors in the sixth. in which Chappie was not the only actor. The inning opened by Miller flaming. Then Bannon made home run, which tied the score and the Barnum Circus boys took it as a drawing card for a full performance and ran a prosperous side show for some time. Hilt flied to Ward. r Ladd nude first because Dun Top. who fielded his drfbble. held it too long before sending the ball to Mason. He wanted to capture Hilt and lost both. Phelan hit and Ward threw in, but Leahey, who got the ball, dropped it as he attempted to put out Hit who was making for the home sack. Bour- quin knocked out the ball and Ladd To rofi rnd ot irGf Steinhauser got first because Mason didn't hang on to the ball and then Mason added another error with a throw and Phelan and Bourquin SCOT ed. Gibbs flied out.
 The features of the game before the unlucky sixth were a double play by Gibbs to Hilt to Phelan in the third, and another by Bridgeport in the ing in to Hit. A two-base hit was also made by Leahey in the first, in which inning New Britain scored, and a. two-base hit by Steinhauser in the fifth which did not turn out profitable to the visitors.
 In the last of the sixth, Waterman flied out. McCabe knocked out a three bagger. Mason hit to first and then Cabrera sent out a fly which was caught but McCabe came in on ,the throw in. Burns flied out.
 When the last of the ninth opened the Hannanites had three ahead of them ana Inaue a. great IlSnl- NdSOn sent out a dribble to Gihts, who picked it up and retired the batter at first. Cabrera. hit. Burns struck out. Ward was called upon by the fans to make good and he knocked out nice one, Cabrera. Edmundson was put in to bat in place of Wells and took lis base on balls. Leahey responded to the shouts of the fans by making clean. hit and Ward scored. It was fully even chances that Edmundson could also have made the home plate, but he was held back at third. Dun Top then came to the bat and famed out. Dunlop fielded his position well for a young player, but couldn't bat. The score:
