w. H. S. to Play Westerly Today.

Today will tell a portion of the story as to who will be likely contenders for the championship of the eastern di- vision of the Connecticut Interscholas- tic Baseball association, when the champion Westerly High school nine and the representatives of Windham High school clash on Windham field this afternoon in the first game be- tween these teams for the season of 1910.
 Westerly High is very formidable opponent and always puts up a first class game of ball Windham is do- ing pretty fair and since her victory over N F. A at Norwich last Saturday has acquired a better confidence in its ability to play the game. The boys can certainly clout the ball and with conditions favorable should make the visiting aggregation go the limit
 Manager Richmond said Thursday aftNrnOon that in ali probability the nine would take the field with the same batting order that it presented against N F. A. last week. but there was a possibility that Frost, who has been on the sick list, might get into tine game which would materially strengthen the nine. Captain Leonard has been giving the men good work in very fair condition, considering the unfavorable weather that has been en- countered recently.
 thing is possible. and the rooters will be out in force to assist the boys in getting them to hit a fast pace. A crowd of fans from Westerly is also expected to be present at the game today.

FOUND DEAD.
Man Believed to Be Daniel Clifford of
 New London.

Thursday forenoon Capt F. H. Richmond of the local police force re- ceived a telephone message informing him that a man had been found dead on the Willimantic turnpike that leads to Colchester and that it was believed that the man was Daniel Clifford harness maker, of New London
 The captain was informed that it was thought that man named Nelson a paperhanger of this city, knew the dead man, but on investigation il was found that there was no such man in the city, but that there was a paper hanger by that name in Norwich.
 It was reported that the man died from natural causes, probably some time late "Wednesday night. The med ical examiner viewing the body ar rived at that conclusion after examina- tion.
 There was nothing on the body to identify the man positively, but from papers found in a pocket it was con- cluded that he was Daniel Clifford.
 At present the town of Colchester is caring for the body and the authori- ties there are making an effort to as certain who the mans relatives are so that the body may be turned over to them.

Meriden Man Pleads Guilty to Writing
 Policy.

Wednesdays Meriden Journal said: Edward Plouf. sixty-three years old and married, living at s6 Park street, pleaded guilty in police court this morning to writing policy and was fined $10O and costs by Judge Fay. At the request of Attorney l. Henry Mag, the defendants counsel, the judge remitted the costs with the un- derstanding that Plouf pay the fine.
 It was Ploufs third arrest. City Attorney Thomas F. Dunne informed the court that he was arrested in August, 1903. for policy writing, and fined $100 and costs at that time. The city attorney thought a. similar fine ample for this offense in view of the fact that the previous arrest was sew en years ago. Judge Fay said he thought so too.
 The police have been watching Plouf for week and waited an opportunity to get him right. Patrpman Burke caught him yesterday afternoon fin the act of distributing slips and A quan- tity of tickets were found in his pos- session. He has been at the game this time for eight weeks, working for c New Haven man.

TIGERS LINE WORRIES
THEIR ANXIOUS COACHES.

PRINCETON. Oct. 19.-Merle Smith,
Doc Hughes and McKenny, scrub
backfield, tore through the Princeton
varsity's line for repeated and sub
stantial gains in a scrimmage at Uni
versity Field yesterday afternoon, with
the result that varsity was held to no
score in twenty minutes of playing.
More experiments We're tried in the
varsity line and they failed to bring re-
suits. The scrub line held better and
the backs gained more ground than
varsity. Punting. by both sides was re-
sorted to frequently, but no scoring was
forthcoming.
Captain Hart Was not at practise and
his place vas aiken by Sawyer, regular
substitute right halfback. Bard and
Andrews played with the other two
varsity halves, as Pendleton and Sparks
were given another rest from scrim-
mage. White went back to his place
at left end. Mclean to right guard and
Ellsworth to left tackle. Ellsworth left
the field because of injuries.
With the Carlisle game on for Satur-
day here, there is cause for gloom.
Coach Roper has tried out all his avail
able men for the line and has not yet
found a machine. More changes before
the Indian game are expected.

BY SURE SHOT.
LAYING the dashing game. the
Dominican basketball five and

Dominican basketball five and
Roosevelt five, of New York,
played a 16-to-16 tie last night at st.
Georges Hall. The Dominicans wanted
to play an extra period, but the Roose-
welt five could not see it, n left the
court. satisfied with the score.
So close was the defensive work of
each team tha for fully five minutes
after the start of the game neither side
scored a single basket. Jack Furst,
the Roosevelt forward, had the honor
of caging the first basket. 1t was a
pretty shot, half the length of the
court. Many opportunities presented
themselves to the Dominican five in
the way of fouls, but the home players
were way off on free throws, just be-
fore the whistle blew ending the first
half, Artie Conlan got away from his
mar and shot the first Dominican bas-
ket. The half closed witt the Rooose-
Welt FIVE in the lead, 5 to 2.
In the second half 1t was a different
story. McDonough brought the crowd
to its feet by caging the ball while in
a difficult position, and Conlan fol-
lowed a few minutes later with another
basket. The Dominican followers at
this period had hopes, but Freeman
and Furst both scored a basket apiece,
putting the New Workers further in the
lead. AT this period of the contest the
referees of both sides began to take a
part in the game. Nick Bloom, of the
Roosevelt Ave, was referee in the last
half. with Jimmy Bell doing the I'M
pire stunt. When one official called a
foul the other was right on the job
and in some cases there was no foul
committed. The Dominicans found a
man who could shoot fouls in the Sec
ond half in the person of Harry Hen
ninger. Alter missing a few In the
early part of the game. Henninger be-
gan to find the iron railing, and tossed
one in after another. With but one
minute to play, a double foul was
called. The score stood 16 to 10 IN
favor of the visitors, and 1t was up tc
Harry to make his score count. The
crowd was excited beyond measure al
