BIG GAME TOMORROW.
Fur Will Fly When Highwoods Meet
 Pioneers.


 When umpire Rosanna calls play balr' tomorrow afternoon at , o'clock and the game between the Highwoods of New Haven and the Pioneers of this city at the East Ellis street grounds begins, the fans will see what should prove to be one of the best the local diamond.
 Preceding the visitors to this city is the reputation of being the "one best bet in baseball in the Elm city. They have a record which warrants them chasing themselves as the champions of the City of Films. and their recent achievement of beating the Annex team of that city in a one sided score, which by the way they maltrcated our old favorite Frank Woodward, With an avalanche of hits and runs, stamps them as being what their reputation classes them. They are coming to this city with one object in view, that of beating the local hoys, but the home fellows' arc just as insistent that the scalps of the Highwoods shall dangle from their belts.
 The steps which the Pioneer man agement has made, in bOlstcring ur the team, strengthens the belief thai the club is intent in garnering the re- mainder of games scheduled for this season. It is probable that Winklel will start tho game as Dudack, whose knee was injured at football severa O 4l>.> | may not take part in the game Noonan will be on the receiving end

"SUNBEAM IS LAUNCHED.
Local Men Complete Work Started
 Last October on Enc Cruiser.

One of the finest crafts in Connect icUt waters was launched today in the Connecticut river off East Hartford, when the Sunbeam took her maid on dip and skifully slided away un- der full head of steam toward Mid dletown Roatmen and residents of the river town, in speaking of the craft said that it was one of the fin est ever launched in that place.
 It was early last October that Nels !. Nelson. the aviator, Harry Fobcre James Mccarthy and Frank Rund commenced work on the craft in d shed near the Baker & Lasher office on Church street. The young men were cnthuscd over their new under taking and worked zealously through the long winter at night and in spare time. It was designed and built ac- cording to the plans and ideas of MT. Nelson.
 The craft is 3S feet in length and has a 40-horse power Beaver engine. It weighs about four tons and has sleeping accommodations for about twelve persons and seating capacity for thirty. It's design is ingenious and the engine is built in a separate com partment. The boat is we'll protected from the elements, having a top cover the entire length of the craft.
 The boat was taken to Hartford last evening on wagon and the builders anXiously waited the break of dawn today, until they saw their pet safely quartered #in the water and then their dreams Of the, long nights and days were ended.

Workers to Blame.
 The responsibility for the condi- tions which have been described at oVe, we declare rests primarily upon workers, who, blind to their collective strength and oftentimes deaf to the cries of their followers, have suffered exploitation and the invasion of their most sacred rights without resistance. A large measure of responsibility, must, however. attach to the great mass of citizens. But, until the workers themselves realize their re- sponsibility and utilize to the full their collective power. no action, whether governmental or altruistic, can work any genuine and lasting irn- provement.
 We call upon our citizenship, re- gardless of politics or economic condi- tions to use every means of agitation, all avenues of education and every de- Tartment and function of government to eliminate the injustices exposed by this commission to the end that each laborer may secure the whole pro- duct of his labor
