 The next league game in the eastern division will be on Friday at Westerly, where Windham High plays Westerly High The next league game by the Academy is on June vs. Morgan at Clinton.

GET THE PITCHERS GOAT.
Lesson for Modern Eaters in the Grim
 Front of the Old Time Sueeers.

One thing that seems evident to an old timer is this: That the modern
 b3tSmen in most cases do not try to get the pitchers goat the way the vet erans did. The vets were more terrible by far when it came to icing a. hurler. Today there are a few goat getters but not many The grim and massive front put up by Wagner, Crawford and La joie scares many a pitcher while the confidence and mocl1ing eagerness of Cobb also Scares them. These fellows act as the old timers did, but most of the modern batsmen simply stand at the plate in a half apologetic way, hoping against hope that they may scratch out a single or draw a base on balls.
 Twenty years ago it was an impress sive scene when Anson, Brouthers or Pete Browning came to bat with the bases full. These giants of the game toted up huge bats of bulk and dented hber-dented by the impact of a hun the pitchers with a grim smile, a look of total confidence, with absolute be lief in their own superiority, and the pitchers facing these monolifhs of the game felt, fin a word, just as the bats men do today in front of Brown. There will never be any rattling sluEginR against the confident and assertive modern pitchers until the modern bats men go after the slabmen's goats the way Anson and Browning did and the way Cobb and Wagner do today.
 Don't go up there as if you wers begging the pitchers pardon Don't go up wondering if you can get anywhere near spitbaH or an outbreaking curve. Drag up a big stick. haw-haw coarsely at the man upon the slab, and don't hit like a gentle darling. If you are a free swinger, blaze away at one as though you were sinking the axe in a tree. Even though you miss you are likely to impress the pitcher. If you are a short, choppy batter of the Keeler style. snap the bat at one with all the speed and quickness you can muster. The pitcher will be worried then, and the moment you get the worry trans ferred from your ego to his you have him going. Confidence is everything The modern pitcher is chuck full of confidence, gslly as a yeggman, con temptuously boastful. The modern batter, or 70 per cent. of him, is afraid even to look mean at the pitcher. But there is nobody who will go up in the air so quickly as a pitcher when you get him stung-there is no goat so easy to capture as that of the pitcher, if you only show little nerve.

Well, We'll Weui Willimantic at last won another game at home and jumped into the leading position again by defeating Humphreys Whalers of New London in a good fast and in teresting game<by the score of 2-1 on Tuesday afternoon
 The b1eacherites to the number of 200 or so and the 75 people in the grandstand on Windham field were nightly. well satisfied with the final result The game was a corker to wit ness from the start and there was no wrangling to mar the contest to speak of. Umpire Curran was right on his job and held the game well in hand at all stages.
 Features of the game were the fine battery work of both teams, the fine fielding of D'Andrea and the hitting of Richmeyer and Shaun Sullivan.
 Doyle had fine control of the ball and did not issue a pass and kept the hits well scattered aside from the almost fatal eighth, when a bunch of four hits taHied a run for NeW%LOndOn that tied up the score. Phillips pitched a fairly steady game.
 At the opening of the ninth New London went out in order, and John Nichols, first up for Willimantic, sent an easy grounder to Burns, who threw and was hit by a pitched ball. Farrell drew a pass and Petrick was the man of the hour when he slammed out a cracking two bagger on a line over third base that went rolling almost to the fence and scored Shaun Sullivan, who was running for O'Mara- with the winning run and but one down.
 The score and summary following depicts the game in detail:

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
AGAIN STAGNANT.
Supply of Stocks for Sale Much Di- minished-Money Market Unchanged.

New York May 24.-The stock mar ket dropped back into a sstagnant state today in contrast with the com paratiVe animation of the day before The news consisted mostly of the efforts to guess the identity of the sellers who depress- ed the market yesterday, without much apparent interest as to the motives which might have prom pted them. The sailing today for Europe of individ- uals who might have been prominent at times in the speculation was hit upon as an indication that they had been cleaning up accounts yesterday prepar- atory to this departure The selling pressure was no longer in evidence to- day and the supply of stocks for sale was much diminished. Uncovered shorts had to advance bids to get stocks. The tactics of the room trad CTS to move prices made up the days market almost altogether.
 The course of the international ex- changes afforded. some relief from the feeling on that account yesterday. The reaction in the sterling exchange rate in Paris was even more violent than the abrupt advance of yesterday, and in New York there was reaction also which was much more moderate The private discount rate in London at the strengthened that this movement was associated with some of the govern ment loan operations recently in prog ress in the Paris market, and possibly also with the closing of the bankers agreement in Paris regarding the Chi nese railroad loan.
 Details were still lacking of the plac- ing of American bond issues in France and of any active steps in renewal of the project to secure the admission of United States Steel to the list of Paris bourse. Both subjects were further dis cussed and helped to the firmer tone of stocks The approach of London stock market settlement was a repres- sive influence in that market and, by reflection, in this market.
 The money market showed an arrest of the recent downward tendency of interest rates, but without any mark ed change in conditions. More remote requirements came into consideration in the canvass of the coming crop movement. Reports that banks in this country are reducing their loan ac- counts with the marketing of com modities which had been held back and also on account of land purchases are received with avowed satisfaction amongst New York bankers.
 The weekly bulletin of the weather bureau reported unsatisfactory condi- tions the past week for the progress of the corn and spring wheat growth, but favorable conditions for cotton. The speculative liquidation proceeded in both wheat and cotton, and the inn mediate weather conditions, which were considered good, had an influence in that movement.
 Bonds were steady. Total sales, par value, $1 105 900. United States bonds were unchanged on call.

SILK" FANcIEs TY COBB.
"Strike Tuhl" Names Him for the
 Greatest EVer-Better Every Season.

If you should ask Umpire silk" O'Doughlin who is the greatest ball player in the game. it's dollars to doughnuts he will say Try Cobb.
 I've watched that fellow like hawk for three years" says silk" and he keeps getting better every season. At first the general run of outf1elders figured that he was a crazy base runner, and paid no particular attention to him. After he had sneak ed to second several times on singles that were slovenly handled in the out field, they changed their tune. Cobb never fails to round first on any old kind of a hit to the outfield. He sails around the bag at full steam, and is set for the sprint to second if there is a miscue anywhere. Let an outfieldeF kick or boot the ball hesitate about returning it promptly or loaf, and Tyrus is off for second. He sneaks many an extra base by his aiertness.
 Cobb slides feet first. Harry Niles is about the only player in the Amerf- can league that goes into a bag head foremost. He takes an awful chance. Cobb has the prettiest slide in the world. He has his eye on the man who is going to take the throw, and dives away from him, throwing his foot at the cushion. You never heard of Wal lace. LaJoie or any veteran fnfelders getting hurt putting a ball on Cobb. They know how to tag him. Instead of going after him they wait for him to hit the dirt and then slip the ball on his foot as he shoves it at the bag Any infielder who knows anything about putting a ball on a runner will never get hurt tagging Cobb"
