cHAPMAN's MARROW ESCAPE. Former Norwich Baseball Player Had Planned to Sail on III-Fated PstrieI, Rogers.


 With reference to John c. Chapman, deceased, formerly of Norwich, Wa terbury paper says:
 Describing one of the narrow es- capes of himself and the Atlantics. Chapman often told the following We were playing in Louisville and had planned to take the steamer Pat rick Rogers to Cincinnati that night. The tourists were induced co stop over for a banquet, which was done. We took the morning train for Cincinnati, where we learned that the steamer had burned to the waters edge dur ing the night and many lives had been lost. We were congratulated on our lucky escape by Manager Harry Wright or the Cincinnati Red Stockings. We beat that famous team"
 Chapman always insisted that the game of his day was every bit as eci- entific and difficult as that of the pres ent. In an interview in The Eagle on March 2e, 1895, he said:
 Some of the players of the present day think it was much easier to play the game in the early days. If any thing. 1t was more difficult There was more hard hitting and much more rum ming to do. It is true there is a changs in che pitching. but it must be remem- bered that there is a big difference iT | the pitching distance For severa years, the distance was only 45 feet while at present (1905) it is 50 feet | inches, difference of Is feet inches which is more favorable to the presen batter as 1t gives him a better chance to time the ball pitched or thrown | The ball played with in those days haA much life, as it contained two and one half ounces of lively rubber, while a | present but one ounce is used. Tn players used little or no harness out side of their flannel suits; now the. are well protected with lots of pad ding. gloves. etc"

MAYOR BROWN mLL
 ATTEND TAX CONFERENCE
Will Meet With County commission- CTS at New London to Discuss Man tic Bridge Plans.


 Mayor Rogers of New London will entertain at luncheon at the Mohican hotel Friday noon Mayor Allyn L. Brown of Norwich and County Commissioners Charles II. smith, A. H. Lanphere and Fred J. Brown. Apart from the social side of the occasion, it is expected that it will afford op- portunity for discussion of the flnan- cial obligations that are likely to de- volve upon the towns and cities of the county through the construction of the new steel and concrete bridge across the Mantle river, the comple- ton of which before Dec. 31, 1917, has been ordered by the war department.
 Plans for the structure are now be- ing preparde by New York engineers, and will be ready for presentation to the county commissioners at any time after June p. The board has also asked for an estimate of the cost of the bridge, ands while this is not yet in hand, it is anticipated that it will be between $75.G00 and $100.00o.
 It is confidently anticipated that the general assembly will vote for the state to share a portion of this ex- pense, since the bridge will be utilized for through travel more than for 1o- cal purposes. But what amount the commonwealth will contribute cannot of course, be determined until the legislature convenes in 1917. The bridge will be well under way by tha; time and the responsibility for pay. ing for its construction will rest or the cities and towns of New Londor county, the heaviest portion of tn, burden naturally falling on Norwich l and New London.
 County Commissioner Lanpnere saiC that should the county be called upol to defray the entire expense, a tax O approximately one mill would be es sentia1 in every town. This, he stated would raise total of $76,000 in tn county.
