Capitol City Five Still Smarting Under Recent Defeat by Locals

The crack Colonials of Hartford, will make their second visit to this city this season tomorrow evening, when they will stack up against the |. M. C. A. quintet, hot on the trail of victory. The Capitol city aggrega- ton on their previous appearance forced the locals at top speed throughout the game, which was 1- nally won by Slater ct al, 39 to 32, after sensational battle. The visi- tors during the first half of that con- test, played rings around the locals, leading at the close of the first half, 23 to 16. It was only after the hard est kind of playing that the associa- ton team managed to keep it's slate of victories from being marred by S4r- feat. Since that time the Colonials have cleaned up the Midd1etown five on their own floor and on a northern trip they met and defeated some of the best teams in Massachusetts and New Hampshire
 The visitors will have in their line LID tomorrow night the old favorites, Harry Schofield and Joey Smith. This pair in the recent meeting, put up brand of basketball that was worthy of going miles to witness, and it's @sOl- lars to doughnuts that they will re- peat tomorrow night. Dancing will follow the game as usual. -
 The coming week promises to be strenuous one for the Y. M. c. A. quintet with the game here tomorrow night ard the scheduled contest with Middletown in that city Saturday night. A large delegation of rooters will accompany the team to the RivSr City Saturday, and on this account the games in the Saturday Night league will be played Friday evening.

Chance IcutlS Brown.

In a flaming bee in Los Angeles the other day Frank Chance, the for mer Peerless Leader of the Cubs and not quite so peerless a leader of the Yankees said Mordecai Brown was tho greatest money pitcher of all time.
 Yes, I know McGraw claims Matty was the best money pitcher of them all, and Bender. Mack's old h. dian, was no sIouch when a money game depended upon his skill but I'll back Browns record against them all.
 With all respect to Mathewson's s wonderful ability, during a three year stretch he won only one game from Brownie. and then he had to pitch @ no-hit shutout to turn the trick.
 'HroWn's work in that play off game in 1908 is one of the reasons why Brown must be regarded above MatheWson as a money pitcher. It may be recalled that we started Tfiester, the lefthander, that day. He always had been a bear against the Giants, and besides poor Brownie had been nearly worked to death.
 After the first three men up got or base on Jack. one of them SCOT ing, we had to send a hurry call for Brownie and with Kings great aid we stopped the Giants. Faithful old Mordecai then held them back, while we batted Matty for the victory, When we called Brown in there was only one thing for him to do, strike out the dangerous Bresnahan, which he did, and King doubled Herzog off first base. Had Bresnahan hit then the Giants would have won the game and the championship."
