 CLOSE BATTLE
CHartford Csoa1r,ant.)


 The lack of a. single base hit at the was all that stopped Hartford from getting on even terms with the Bridgeport Bolts in the eighth inning of yesterdays game at the Wethers- field avenue grounds. and the result was that the, Senators finished the contest defeated.
 Henry was on the, mound for the home team and was not in good shape. He was wild all the way through the game, allowing no less than seven free tickets to first in the eight in- nings he pitched.
 Lefty Gervais faced Hartford and proved a. puzzle up to the seventh, which was followed by such a. disas- trous eighth that he was pulled in that stanza with the bases full. one down and only one run needed to tie Tuckey was rushed to the box and he turned the trick, seIsding the next two Hartford Gbatsmen back in neat threatened to spell victory flor Dan OfNeiPs cohorts. | It was a great day for the s1uggers, and the leader of the heavy hdtteFs was First BaseInan Ems of Bridge port with two fhree-pIy wauops in his first two trips to the pan.
 Right in the opening inning Henry was touched up, when with two men gone Senno hit safely and stole sec end scoring a moment later when Groh let Hal1manss bounder getaway from him That run did not mean i much, as Hartford got it back in the second inning when AnGCabe led off with a triple and scored sacri- l fee fly by NEu1doon.
 The third stanza, however, was a bad one flor the Senators, Henry start 1 ing things by prese1ting a transfer to l Bowman. Senno famed and Curry l had an easy out on HaIln1an, but l1n- ] expectedly let the ball get away and Bridgeport then started the lombard ment Boultes led with a single that hds second triple of the game, sending ment later himself on Kernsss single to right, that fell safe when Jack l Hoey n1isjudged it and then failed to reach it.
 When the eighth inning rolled i around Gervais proceeded to crack and he was all in by the time that he ] was derricked- Groh drew four balls for a, beginning and Hoey followed with a line drive into left field Keli- her struck out, but ADcCabe cracked one to left field that scored GFoh and Garde11a scratched a hit to Boultes 1 that filled the sacks MhlIdoen hit one I to Bowman who booted 1t and Hoey scored Henry was pulled out and | Gefst sent in as a pinch hitter. and EBouItes followed suit by pulling out I Gervais and sending in Tuckey. Geis hit one high back of second that Stow 1 gobbled and Curry ended the oppor- tuntty with a strikeout.

Jake was notified that he must stop picking on the ufnpires The local manager is an aggressive player and finds. it hard to keep quiet if a close decision goes against his club. President O'Rourke's patience was exhausted last week when Boultes got into trouble with Umpire healy eal in Hartford and was fined $5.i After being told that such conduct would no longer be tolerated, Jake held up his hand and declared he would not bother the unnpires any more First Basernan Ems of the Bolts. has also been notified to appear on the carpet and hear 8 few words from the pres ident

The battle was pulled off in a; room of a tavern, at about midnight, before a choice company of wealthy and titled sports who. had gathered at Shooters Hill to attend a bu1I- batting. After the sport of the day the company re retired to a tav- ern, where Pearce afterward famous as stthe Game Chicken met Joe Berks who was one of the, leading con tenders for the championships -Pearce had had no ring experience, but a. short time before he had whipped a prominent pugilist in @ private bout. Berkss somewhat under the influence of liquor, tnsulted Pearce in every way possible but the Bristollian smother ed his anger and went away to bed After that Berks became unbearable. and the Chicken was sent for and offered a handsome purse to beat up the big bully. He was willing to oblige. and. although much smaller than his opponent, the 'Chteken" pol Ished off Joe and knocked him t,zt in 20 minutes. Pearce became cham pion in 1906.
