 NOTES.

Manager O'Rourke of the local team has booked the New York Nationals for game here on Good Friday. the 9th of April. Red Waller will do the twirling for the Giants.
 Connecticut nague fans may not see Arthur McCabs of the New Britains wko last year led the batters of the league. McCabe wants to manage the WilkeSbarre. Pa. team which has made an offer to Manager Hanna for his re- lease. Hartford also wants to get the heavy hitter.
 New Haven fans are beginning to howl over the deal whereby Andy Herbst. goes to the Lynn New England league team. Herbst is a pitcher and has been traded for g. catcher. whose name has not been given out. The only thing that Herbst did last year that was in any way remarkable was on July 21 when he pitched two games first in fifteen inning 4-3 and the sec ond 2-1. His record was 1S out of P games.
 Manager Hanna of the New Britain team says that he will not sign Pad ron, one of his dark skinned Cubans because of his cratic playing. It would not be a surprise to see him with some other Connecticut league team.
 Tommy Downey left this city this morning for the training camp of the CincinnatiS at Atlanta, Ga. His work will be watched with interest by large number of local admirers.
 Six more weeks before the Connecti- cut league players begin reporting to their camping grounds for the summer. The old well recommended" phrase will come in for its usual abuse for the remainder of the month.
 The managers of the Connecticut league teams will have to infuse little ginger into themselves and add little more 60 their contracts to be let out if they wish to be a factor in tn coming race The way Hartford Springfield and New Haven are gn- ing them up proves that the Nutmeg league hall will be faster than ever this season.

Of the most extraordinary trotters OF all

and uneoualed distinction OF having in
turn lowered the worlds record for two
year-ods. then for three year-ods, then
Tot four -year-olds and then In her five
year-od form of establishing a new
worlds record for trotteTs, regardless of
age or sex.
Suno was foaled in 1886 and bred by
the late Senator Leland Stanford at his
far-famed Palo Alto farm in California,
and her exploits all date back TO the
ginning to seem so remote Tho late
Charles Marvin. greatest of all colt
trainers, brought her before the public
first In her twoyear-old form. and she
then astonlshed the world by lowering
the record for trotters OF that age. which
had stood a 2.2l for seven years past

previous efforts by two-year- olds. but ac-

year-olds.

at once one OF the most sensational IN
the annals OF the trotting turf and
horsemen eagerly awaited what she
might do the next season-for as she haG

to be held in Brussels during the summer

upon condition that the worlds cham

therefore Taylor was not eligible under
