The prospects look good for this initial metorcycle run having a large entry list and being a pronounced success. MAN AND WIFE DUCKPINS POSTPONED liiness of Mrs.’Smith Prevents Match at Rose Alleys Tonight. A postponement of the man and wife duckpin championship match which was slated for tonight at the Rose al- leys for the state championship, has been made necessary by the illness of Mrs. Smith of Bridgeport, the team- mate of Doc Smith, in the match against Mr, and Mrs. J. J. C. Stone of this city. The match will be rolled here on Friday cvening, the 31st. ‘When the two teams come together, the Norwich pair will have to make up the slight lead of one game which the Bridgeport duo now have on them, having won three out of the five games which were rolled in Hartford as the first leg of the ten-game match. DEFEAT FOR LUNC;IN. Zbyszko Throws Him in 48 Minutes— Then in 8 Minutes. The Zbyszko-Lundin wrestling match in the Loomer Opera house at Willi- mantic Wednesday evening was as clean a match as was ever put on in the city, and was satisfactory to those who witnessed it. Zbyszko agreed to throw Lundin twice in 90 minutes, and did so, although before he obtained the first fall it began to appear as though The would be unable to, as Lundin was showing up remarkably strong, and broke hold after hold with such dexterity as to elicit frequent ap- plause. Zbyszko was all that has been sald of him—a big, polished mountain of flesh. He won the first fall in 48 minutes with a full body and spread- A Baltic man named Miller was ref- eree, and was the center of much of the excitement, Kid Wilson becoming so incensed at his rulings at one time that he was willing to take the ref- ertit on for a bout with the mitts. Wil- son got the first fall in 14 minutes. Monty took the second in 10 minutes, and they wrestled out the balance of ‘the holurr without either getting anoth- er fall.

Boston, March 22.—In the first of two gam:s to be played for a purse of $2,- 500, the Wanderers of Montreal de- feated the champion Ottawa hockey team at the Boston Arena tonight, the score-being 7 #o 5. Brilliant individ- wal work characterized the contest from start to fifinish, Taylor of the Renfrew team, who was substituted for Lalke of Ottawa early in the Irse peri- od, showing especial speed and clev- erness in carrying the puck down the rink. Hardly less brilliant was the work of Ross, the point for the Wan- derers Champions on the Way. Savanah, March 22.—The world's baseball champions left late tonight on their return from spring training, but will stop at Columbia and Charleston, S.

New York, March ~—Some appear- ance of flrmness was given to the stock market today by the fact that & few issues made good gains and that the gemeral movement, zithough un- important, was upward, until late in the day, ‘The market developed no especial strength, however, as it was one of the smallest of the year and the greatest gains were attained by stocks which ordinarily do not figure as_favorite mediums of speculation. Fluctuations were so narrow as to afford few trading oppertunities. There was, however, a perceptible hardening In the tone and an absence of the pressure which weakened the market yesterday. While the demand was not heav around gaing and a trifle more. Traders who, because their large op- erations are often credited with exer- eising a predominating influence on the market, apparently are taking part in the day to day business at present. Standard stocks were neg- lected much of the time, and a large part -of the day's transactions was made up of operations which apparent- Iy have their genesis in pool manipu- lations.

Definite alignment of the influential factors in Missouri Pacific as a re- sult of yesterday's election of officers had no apparent effect on the Gould stocks, Missouri Pacific continued on its erratic course, establishing a gain early im the day, only to fall to a price about three points below its high range yesterday, The promptness with which the stoch has been offered invariably of late en advances,-suggests that some holders of the stock may-be seeking a market and are finding it increasingly difficult to dispose of their shares. Elsewhere, however, there is little apparent desire to liquidate, and in the more influential circles the feeling is one of qufet confidence. The outlook has been brightened by expectation of good crops, as indicated by data al- ready at handy although it is yet too early to obtain more than a faint idea of the prospects. “The money market was dull and there were still no intimations of a hardening tone on account of April interest and dividend disbursements.

Connected with the national pas- time are certain-favorites for whom their supporters are constantly root- ing. and for whom thesc fans throw qualifieations to the wind, and group under the indisputable term of “best,” says a Philadelphia exchange. Last season when the Athletics were embellishing the history of the Amer- ican -league im® their quest after the world’s championship, a tanned, healthy, sturdy scion of old Erin was playing the right field. His name was a household word wherever the ear- nest student of baseball pored over the narratives of those titanic con- tests, for Dan Murphy had distin- guished himself in such manner as to establish for the Norwich lad un- dying fame. To those who were privileged to see his wonderful catch in Chicago.' when | bent prone over the bleachers he clutched in unerring grasp a ball that was winging its flight toward a two- base hit, Murphy stood pre-eminent as not only the greatest right flelder in either league, but o of the grand- est in the entire history of American sports. Ask any man who followed Murphy’'s career during the past season who was the greatest fielder playing that right patch, and with a pitying glance for your ignorance he ‘will snort and say in unmistakable terms, “Dan Murphy; you chump!” Few there will be who can gainsay this ardent and intelligent champion. for at the very head dbf right fielders stands this same broth of a boy from the Connecticut city. Fight Was Keen. Now it is a decads ago that Danny Murphy came to Philadelphia to erect and mainiain 2 reputation second to none as an outflelder, and also as a second baseman. His migration to the city of the Quaker forms an inter- esting chapter, and it will be the plzas- ant work-of the author to chronicle the same. - When the American league entered Philadelphia as an active contender for popular support with ths parent body, the National league, there was a natural opposition on the part of the fans to the upstart, as it were. Con- nie Mack was at the helm, and he im- mediately set about to build up a team. Genera] Sherman’s torrid description of war fitted the situation in Philadel- phia between the two leagues to a nicety. It was fight, fight. fight from the drop of the hat. National agree- ments were unknown in those. days, and it was as much as an ownsr and manager could do to keep -a roster of his players from day to day. Well, the firs§ season that the Ath- letiecs knew in Philly was. passed in court litigation, as numbers of the players formerly with the -National league body had leapaed the boundaries and were ensconced in the fold of Ban Johnson’s bureau. The next year, 1902, came, and with it the court judgment that Lajoie, Bernhard, Flick and the others who had formerly been members “of the Phillies were the property of the latter. It meant that in all the home games these men were unavailable for the Athletics. In other words, it meant that Connie Mack. pilot of the ship through those turbulent waters. must caulk up the holes in the craft and make her seaworthy again. Now to the story of Murphy. Connie Mack at Norwich. One night, just before the Athletics were to leave for Boston, Connie met a friend of his, a newspaper man, and he said: “I may have something for you tomorrow night. I'm going down to Norwich to look over a player that 1 think is one of the best youngsters in the business. “I'h going to leave Lave Ctoss in charge of tha team in Boston and Tun down and see this chap. If I sign him I'll let you know.” When the team started for Boston | Cennie dropped off at Norwich. Danny had previously been a member of the New York Giants, but after playing a few games had been allowed to drift back to the minors. Teok Count Castro’s Place. Manager Mack sought out Danny and had an earnest convetsation with him. They came to an agreement, and that night the newspaper man received & wire: ‘“Hava signed Danny Murphy to play second base.” At that time Count Lou Castro was occupying the bag, and the comedian of baseball heard the mews. He was not disappointed a mite, but said in that inimitable manner of his: “Well, Castro will gat a much-needed rest.” Got Six Hits in Six Timegs Up. Be that as.it may, however, Murphy reported the second day of the series at Boston and went in at second base. His appearance that day is a record- breaking affair shared only by one other player. The latter is Clarence Beaumont, now with the Cubs, but at that time with Pittsburs. Danny Murphy appeared at the plate, bat in hand, six times thdt day. ' He was facing Old Cy Young, then in the prime of his pitching ability. ' Danny made a hit every time He faced the pitcher, two of which were doubles and one a home run, with three men on. ‘Such a debut for a youngster making his appearance was phenomenal, but Murphy has kept to this same sensd- tional trail in afl the years he has been under the management of Connie Mack. Nobody knows his value as a player, measured in dollars, for he is one -of those men whose price is prohibitive. Not content with this showing as a'second sacker Danny achieved an additional meed of fame. When it bacame necessary to flnd a place for ‘Eddie Collins and make him one of the greatest second basemen ih the-history of the game, Danny went to right fleld. ‘Why say more?

Those two old cronies and room- mates, Jack Coombs and Eddie Plank, will make no niore wagers on their re- spective standing in the number of games won during the coming season: Last season both, being farmers, wa- gered a fine cow on the outcome, and Coombs won, Plank and Coombs were sitting to- gether and were conversing recently when a friend sauntered along. Re- membering the bet of last year, he asked: . “Going to make any bets this year?” “Bets nothing!” snorted Coombs. “Why you know last vear if I lost I was going to give Plank one of my Guernsey cows. Well, I won. He went out and paid $12 for a beef crit- ter and wanted me to take that. It would have cost me $24 to take her to” Maine, and I could have gone out| and bought one like her for $8. No, sir: no bets this year with Plank.” “Rats!” said Eddie, in his own de- fence, “there was no kind of cow specified and no amount set for her price. What are you Kkicking about?
