 MdTSdHS, the CuDdn OuCIlelQer, IS some speed merchant. In yesterday s game against Hartford the New Brit ain player stole home with the final run of the contest.
 Reggie Brown, the New Britain finger, was sore at losing to Hart ford, Monday, so he asked Dan O'Neil for another chance. Brown was sent in again yesterday and held the Sen ators to three hits, beating Hartford by to 0.
 Dan O'Neil presented Marsans with a five spot for a wonderful catch the Cuban made in the eighth inning. There were two on bases and two out when Marsans made a one-hand catch of liner that would have broken up the game.
 \ Herman Bronkie, the former Water bury star, will probably be sent back to the Southern League by Cleveland He isn't hitting enough for the Naps Jimmy Callahan, the veteran out fielder, is probably through as s-big leaguer. The old boy came back for a while but since Bodie has been given a chance in the Chicago out feld,.. the veteran appears to be out classed.
 Johnny Evers' broken leg must be as good as ever for he is drawing his semi-weekly expulsion from the game with the same old regularity.

Chairman Michael Ward OF the
board of health said he approved OF

and rebound to their credit.
Chairman Ward went a bit farther
and expressed the belief that many of
the politicians at the city hall should
practice the self-dcnial asked for. He
said that they We're devotees of the
daily bath and declared that now was
the time for the city fathers and other
public officials to show their mettle
by putting aside their custom of bath
ing daily and restraining themselves
for the welfare of the public
Chairman Ward was asked point
blank If he bathed daily, but he would
not reply. He is, however. the most
outspoken OF the city department
heads and believes that the citizens
should bathe infrequently for while.
Street Commissioner McPhetras was
the real brave man in city hall. He
was a boomer of the twice a week
plan and freely stated his conviction
that experience would never disprove
that twice a week would be too in
frequent bathing for any man. A lot
or people have been wondering Just
what he meant. but his phraseology
was so lawlike they still remain puz-
