THREAD MILL LEAGUE.
Crowds Witness Saturdays Games Protested Game to Be Played Over on Labor Day.

Interest-in in the games in the Amerl- can thread mill baseball league is in creasing Saturday large crowds were in attendance at both Horseshoe park and Windham field, where two games were played. Some of the hines were slightly weakened by the absence Of a number of their players by reason or the fact that the departure of Com pany l., First infantry c. N. G., to the front" took those players along to participate in the war game.
 The games were more closely con- tested in most instances than on any Saturday since the league opened up its reason.
 The shipping and packing room de- |feated the No. mill crowd by score of S-2. The printing room defeated No. mill nine by the score of 9-3. The dyehouse nine defeated No, 2 mill nine by the score of 7-5, and the wind ing room defeated the office by the score of 7-6
 The dyehouse nine has not lost game so far in the series and its SUD- porters are confident that it can trim any nine in the league and are already laying wagers that it will win the pen nant The other hines are equally sure that the dyehouse will yet run against a snag and sustain defeat at the hands of the pulp spool depart ment.
 The players are looking forward with much interest to the games that are to be played Labor day in connection with the field day sports. The protest ed game of a week ago Saturday will be played over at that time and many are of the opnion that the pulp spool shop crowd will be a winner-that is, if Lefty Killourey is in his real form and the umpire hands out a square deal

 Choir Music Appreciated at Mantle,
 The following extract from a letter of appreciation. written by Rev. j.. William Knappenberger pastor of the Congregational church at Mantle, where the choir of the local Congre- gational church sang a week ago Sun day, appeared in the calendar of the local church:
 'The excellent music which you gave to us on Sunday morning was enjoyed by saint and sinner alike. The latter were even more deeply impressed than the former. One person who had not been at church for many moons, said he had no idea before that music could take hold of a person so strongly. Why he said, It went right to my heart This man is no ignoramus. He knows enough to look out for No. ] every tine in q business transaction but your music struck him hard and actually touched his conscience as nothing else could have done"
 The letter was written to L. O. Williams choirmaster of the local or ganization

BARRY AND TURcoTTE
Steal Ride from Norwich on a Freight and Then Steal Caps and Neckties from Stores.

Two more Norwich boys got into trouble here Saturday afternoon. They gave their names as John Barry, Is, of 46 Myrtle avenue, and Joe TUrcotte, 10, of Third street. The boys were arrested on a charge of having stolen caps and neckties from the Douty store and from the store of A. c. Luke.
 The actions of the boys while in these places of business attracted sus- picion to them and an officer was put on their trial They were found by Special Officer Martin at the sand pit" the same place where a trio of Norwich lads went to change their clothes just before they got into trou- ble with the police here a few days ago.
 Officer Martin turned the boys over to Captain Murray. who held a busi- ness session with them at police head quarters. The captain had not talked with them long before he was obliged to form poor opinion of Barry's ve- racity. Caught in the tolls, Barry was inclined to shift the blame on to Fur cotte. The cap taken from Douty's and the neckties taken from Luke's were found in the boys possession.
 Barry had torn the A. c. Luke label from the ties in his possession in an endeavor to conceal the fact that the goods were stolen. but this scheme was without avail.
 It was gathered from the boys story that they had left Norwich Saturday morning, stealing a ride on a freight train to this city. Barry explained his coming to this city by saying that he had a relative here who was a locomo- tive engineer, working in the local yards This part of the story was verified by Captain Murray but it was evident that the engineer did not expect the visit.

Sues to Recover Commission.

Samuel Quint of New Haven has sued Baxter Staiskiewicz and John Kawski of this city for S260 and money in the hands of John Markowsld has been garnisheed The action is return able in the common pleas court at New Haven on the first Tuesday in September The suit has been insti- tuted to recover a commission for the sale of the saloon. Quint's claim is that the defendants told him that they would give him a commission of s25O if he would get someone to purchase their saloon at 27 Jackson street. He induced John Markowski of Middle town to come to Willimantic on three occasions and finally prevailed upon him to buy the saloon. At that time the plaintiff asked for his commission, but the defendants refused to give it to him, claiming that as they had pur- chased liquors of him he ought to con- slider them as his friends and not take the s250 from them for obtaining someone to buy their place. Attorney P. J. Danahey has been retained by MT, Quint to represent him in the case.
