TERLY TEAM TAKES 2 GAMES Norwich Team No. 1, with New Bowlers, Takes Final String-~The Averages of the League--Meriden Own- ers Sick of Running Ball Team There.--Eastern Con- necticut League Meeting at Danielson. Westerly team No. 1, leaders in the Duckpin league, heid their place but lost a few points in the standing on Friday evening by winning their match with Norwich team No. 1 on the Rose alleys. The visitors took two stAngs out of three. The Norwich team had two new members rolling, Kennedy and Sturtevant, both putting down good totals, and Kennedy being high single for the match with 114. Kennedy's high string came on the last and was the deciding factor in giving Norwich one game, after it had lost the other two. Holdsworth's total of 265 beat Kennedy out by two pins for the best individual three strings. _The scores: Westerly Team No. 1.

Stratford, Conn., Jan. 22.—About 200 specators had gathered in the training quarters at John Bond's tonight to witness a series of boxing bouts, the star event, which had been promised quietly to be a real fight, to be be- tween Johnny McGahey of Stratford, and Butch MeNally of Bridgeport, neither a fighter of any ability, when Deputy Sheriff Charles E, Stagg ap- peared and warne dthe promoters that the bouts could not be held and that he would arrest them if any attempt was made to start them. John Bond, the proprietor of the place, had gone to bed, but John Whippl eof Bridge- port, claiming to be managing the af- fair, announced that the bill was de- clared off, Sheriff Staffff said after- ward that' complaint had been made to him that a “fight” was to take place and that no permit had been grante by the selectmen.

United States Steel Movement Attract- ed Much Attention. New York, Jan. 22.—The narrow di- mensions of the stock market made its principal feature still today. The movement in United States Steel at- tracted a good deal of attention, owing to the hopes that the usual strong sym- pathetic effact of this stock’s action on the general list would prove effect, in reviving the market. Yesterday's 2 point rise in United States Steel did, in fact, have the effect of bringing in some orders for the stock today, the result being a spread in the price of 1-5 at the opening on an extreme ad- vance of 1-2. This carried it within a shade of 55, where it hesitated owing to the very large sellng orders awaiting it at that point. At 55 the first sale was of 10,000 ehares, and very large sales followed. The preferred stock also advanced to 115, which is a record price, the previous record of 114 5-S having heen made in November la. The sinking fund bonds of the corpora- tion are ruling also at about their highest price. There was no definite news to account for this movement. For this reason, probably, the move- ment failed to awaken the customary response in the general list. Some of {the railroad equipment stocks showed | some sympathy. Quite & varied list of indusrial specialties rose briskly on newly awakened activity, for the most part unexplained by any news. In the case of Americah Sugar, | attributed to the applic company to have its shares admitted on the regular list, a request which im- plies the hiftention to publish detafled {information of earnings and financial condtion. The requiremerts from an uncovered short interest were suppo ed to figure in some of these sudden sdvances. The rise in Natlonal Lead was col cident with another reduction in price of copper and a decline in sf in the London market. News that the | Russian loan issue had been many times oversubscribed In Paris and was ruling at & premium of 2 per cent. was | followed by an easing of discount rates | abroad and a reduction in the price of the | | gold insLondon, which promised a re laxation of the Paris demand on I | don for gold.

All the six clubs, it is believed, will be rep- resented, and it is reported that there will be representatives from other places on hand looking fo ra chance to gain admission to the league, Central Village is one of these. Last fall President Reeves gave it out that he was strongly inclined to run a team in Danielson, and it is believed he is still of the same opinion. If this is 50, it will mean securing another man for president, as the league's policy has been to have the president's chair filled by a man not interested in & bus- iness way in any of the teams.

New Orleans, Jan. 22.—After lasting a week, the race meet at Suburban park, in Jefferson parish, across the Mississippi river from New Orleans, was closed today, at least temporarily. The announcement of the suspension was made on the conclusion of the fourth race, shortly after John Shee. han of Memphis, "a bookmaker, had been arrested on the charge of violat- ing the Locke anti-racing law. Shee- han’s arrest followed a telegraphic or- der from Governor Sanders to the dis- trict attorney of Jefferson parisr. Is Turk Afraid?

Mahmout has been notified now that he can have $500 if he will take a chance. Siegfried says that he threw Mahmout in 11 minutes In Berlin a year ago and that the Turk is afraid of him.

But I am not playing billiards for mere titles or tro. phies.” is the way Hoppe sizes up the situation. New Britain in the seeson of 1807 TO LOWER PACING RECORD Star Pointer’s 1.59 1-4 Will Be M4k For Savage's New Purchase. Minor Heir now becomes the stable companion of Dan Patch, 155 1-4, the world’s champion pacer. "After Dan became the property of Mr. Savage— which was in 1902—that gentleman never allowed the stallion to appear in @ Tace, but it has now been announced that these two pacing marvels will appear against each other in exhibi- tion races during the ‘coming sutomer. It will be a wonder if Minor Heir does mot do something towards the lowering of the world's technical un- paced records for pacers, 1.59 1-4, It was in August, 1897, that Star Pointer set this record at Readville, Mass. After him no pacer crossed the two-minute line until 1902, when Dan Patch did so. The history of Dan's struggles to beat 159 1-4, and how he did and didn’t do so is full of curious interest. In 1902, the year that he attained two-minute honors, after tak- ing a record of 1.59 1-2 at Providence, Dan was started to beat it at Readville —and, if possible, to beat 159 1-4 as well. ' He paced his mile in 159 1-4, exactly, but by a mistake he had been programmed as attempting to beat 159, not 159 1-4 Hence, under the teslinical rules governing records made against time, his performance was a losing, not a winning one, and he got no official credit for it. The next year the front pacemaker and the wind shield came in, and be- hind a runner—he can follow one as no other horse has ever shown the ability to—Dan cut his record by gradual reductions to 1.56 1-4. The next year he cut this to 156 and the next to 1.56 1-4. The men who con- trol the official trotting organizations ruled out the front pacemaker, and, further, that a horse that had taken a record behind a runner could not thereafter make one “in the open™ unless he (or she) beat his (or her) record made previously in the prohibit- ed way, This placed Dan Pat¢h in a predica- ment. It was made a physical impos- sibility for Dan to get a new record of any sort. He couldn’t beat 155 1-4 in the open, and on account of his 1.55 1-4 record net made that way, if he went to beat his old-fashioned rec- ord of 159 1-2 and Star Pointer's 1.59 1-4, and did so this would still be not a technical record. . Mr. Savage, however, showed Dan's greatness by sending the champion to Memphis, where he paced in 1.8 in the open, but got no credit for it. And so Star Pointer's record still stands. But if Minor Heir stays sound and well and improves even the least bit in the world, it won't be standing a year from now. Harry Hersey, who will train him from now on, is en expert in training a pacer to go against the watch, and driving one as well. He is at least fifty pounds lighter than Dean, also, and if all goes well will go a mile some time during 1909 that will relegate 1.59 1-4 to has- beenism, finally and_forever, For Dan Patch Mr. Savage paid $60,000—of which, it is said, $45.000 was in cash—the same amount that he has paid for Minor Heir. As a paver of record-breaking prices for record- breaking pacers, the Minneapolis man certainly has no rivals. So far as is reliably known. nobody else ever paid half as much for any pacer as he did for either of these. . RED-TOPPED ATHLETES. Great Year for the Strong and Speedy Men With Titian Locks. Many fond mother who has brooded over the fact that her hope- ful has locks of flaming red will take heart when she reads the resume of athletics for 1908, and notes the fact that the chlef honors on the cinder path this year have fallen to red- headed runmers_ Who won the junior cross-country championship at Celtic park recently, outclassing a fleld of fourscore run- ners, and winning in record tim Why, red-headed Jimmie Lee of Bos- ton. ' And it was Lee, too, the week previous, who showed the athletic fans a streak of gameness that soft- ened the heart of every man and wo- man that saw the race. Lee ran the whole last two miles in a condition bordering on collapse, and flopved over helpless the instant he realized that he had completed the journey. Who won the ten-mile champion- ship—the very race in which Lee showed al] this grit? Why, red-headed Jack Eisele, from Newark, N. J. Eisele ran the fastest ten miles since the days of Willie Day—53 minutes and 16 sec onds. Elsele is some game, too. It is not so long ago that we read aWout his running the English three milers to a standstill at the Olympic gam and giving the British athletic ex perts the scare of their lives. And this after having the nail torn off one of his big toes. Eisele ran with his foot bandaged and suffered excruciat- ing pain at every stride. Who was the star of the distance aces at the outdoor championships st summer? Why, red-headed Mike Driscoll, from Yonkers, the Hill cit Driscoll has defeated such champior as Reilly of the Mohawks, Lee of Boston, Bellars of the New York A. C., Bonhag, Joyce, Daly and Collins of Pennsylvania on the cinders, and at the indoor championships he thrilled the whole athletic world with a performance of 9.28 for two miles on the boards, When Uncle Sam needed a sprinter to uphold his name in the 200-metre race at London, who was it that shot 5 away from the mark like a streak, and, after one of the most stirring racés of thé Olympiad, plunged through the tape a brave three inches behind Bobby Kerr, the pride of Can- ada? Why, that was red-headed Bob.- by Cloughen of the Irish-American A. A. Cloughen upheld the Stars and Stripes in other countries, too. He won the 200-metre events at interna- tional meets in Dublin, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Malmo, Norkopping and Stockholm—all in tiptop time.

Clark Griffith was a member of the Boston American_ assoclation team of 1891. Most people had forgotten the fact. Charley Carr is anxious to get the Boston American club to release French, the infielder drafted from Ev- ansville, Ind. George Morlarity is another fistic star among ball players in_the class with Frank Smith, John Anderson and Schmidt of Detroit. Clark Griffith is a great believer in players who take care of their bats and are very choice of them. He banks upon such men as hitter: Danny Green's descent has been fast. He was not good enough for Sioux City and Ducky Holmes has released him to Dick Cooley’s Topeka team. Gilroy, ths Lawrence pitcher, will be with Billy Bernhard in Nashville next season, Billy McGee, the former Na- tional league pitcher, has received an offer from Bernhard. Duffy is a_member of the which looks after the affairs of the Eastern league and Am- erican association. The other mem- bers are Stein of Buffalo, Tebeau of Loulsville and Schoenborn of Colum- bus.

A New Haven exchange says: One of the last survivors of the Pequot Indian tribe is Mrs. Lucy Savant, who has been ill for the past week at the New Haven hospital. Mrs. Savant is 76 vears of age. There are about a hundred Indians who claim to be Pequots, but there are a very few that do not have Mohegan o T other blood in their veins. Uncas, the famous Mohegan chief, was one of Mrs. Savant's forefathers. It may seem strange that Mrs. S vant's maiden name was Jardiniere, but th is due to the fact that many Ind s took the names of the § {iards who came over on voyages of dis- covery, and this name came from one, Joseph Jardiniere, who came over some | time_in the fiftecenth century ‘When an In n wishes to trace his or her ancestry the data on the moth- er's side is used, that on the father's | side counting for nothing. 1t is interesting to note that Mrs. Sa- £ he returned to his old associates and | WHAT TO BUY 2o WHERE 10 BU IN NORWICH Try Gur COFFEE IT WILL PLEASE YOU.
