ALDI & CO, Prop. may7d THER» s no advertising medium 'n HOSPITAL LOSES The Norwich state hospital nine met a fast bunch when they Wwent up against the team representing the Middletown hospital, at Middletown, yesterday afternoon, and suffered the worst defeat of their career, losing by the overwelming score of 12 to 0. Moore pitched good ball, but was mis- erably supported by his teammates throrughout the game, eleven errors being charged against the Norwich hospital team. The local boys also were useiess at the bat, Hoar, the Mid- dletown pitcher, being credited with 15 strikeouts. The Norwich boys didn't get a man on first base until two were out in the sixth inning. Then Moore got a base on balls, and went to sec- ond on Wicks' hit over short, this be- ing the first hit that the local team made off Hoar, White, running for Moore, was caught off second on a quick throw by Hoar, retiring the side. Norwich's last hit was made in the seventh by McGraw, for two bases, after two were out: He was left on setond. None of the Norwich players got father than second base. The game was plaved in a drizzling rain, and was practically a farce. The Middletown team showed plenty of ginger and supported Hoar in great style. Middletown plays on the local dlamond on July 25th, and the local boys are hoping to make a better showing at that time.

New Yorker Entirely Outclassed by English Champion—Victory Came in Eighth Round. New York, July 18.—Bombardler Wells, heavyweight champion of Eng- land, knocked out Tom Kermedy of New York after two minutes and 44 seconds of fighting in the eighth round of their bout here. The knockout came as the culmina- tion of the fastest fight that-has been seen here since the days of the Horton law. The deciding blow was a right smash to the jaw which sent Kennedy down, his head hanging over the lower ropes, The referee counted Kennedy out and his seconds carried him to his corner. Once, before in the round Kennady had gone down for a acount of nine seconds when Wells hooked hig left to the face and sent his right across to the jaw, Wells was by far the quicker of the two throughout the fight, and his idea of direction was excellent.

Boston, July 18.—Rain checked the progress of the Longwood Cricket club tennis championships in singles and doubles today. There was one un- finished set in singles, while in the doubles three matches were plaved off before the rain came and broke into the final set of a fourth match. In the singles match W. J. Clothier of Philadelphia had won two sets from J. D. Jones of Providence, the former Rhode Island champion, and three all when the match was called off. In the doubles Craig Biddle and R. N. Williams of Philadelphia, after hav- ing defeated Washburn brothers of Bridgeport, Conn., in the second round, oppased N. P. Hallowell and J. N. Owell of Boston, conquerors of Inman and E. P, Larned, for the third round match. Sachems Going to Jewett City, ginning and worked so hard that he was visibly tired before the fight was half over. Kennedy in some of the tounds accepted enough punishment to The Sachems and Jewett City team will meet and fight it out on the Jew- ett City diamond. The Jewett Clty team has only been beaten once, and that was by the Sachems, this season. Defeat has visited the Sachems only once this year, and they are confldent of a victory. The Sachems will be there good and sirong with the Mc- Intyre brothers for their battery. A large number of local people are in- terested in the outcome of the game and Manager McBurney expects that the largest crowd of the season will be present. The local team will leave on the o'clock trolley for Jewett City, Ten Runs in First Inning. Boston, July 18—Torrential rain stopped today's Boston-Chicago game in the first inning. Boston had ham- mered Clcotte the former Red Box pitcher, out of the box and had scored ten runs with only two out when play was suspended. Chicago did not score on Hall in its half inning. Two games will he played tomor- row. All other American league games were postponed on account of the rein.

Several Favorable Elements, But Busi- ness Still Holds Dull New York, July 18.—Stocks mani- fested increasing firmness today after an early perfod of uncertainty. Trad- ing, however, was of the same dull and perfunctory character as that which has marked most recent operations. Favorable crop news, undoubted im- provement in the steel industry and in- creasing ease in the domestlc mone- tary situation all combined to create an atmosphere of mild optimism. even though they failed to stimulate busi- ness in securities. Of the several factors named, the in- creasing demand for the output of the steel mills at higher prices was per- haps the most potent today. Bquip- ment orders are coming along steadily and this fact is beginning to find re- fleotion in the stocks of the companies benefited. Amalgamated Copper was another strong feature, deriving much of its support from a better inquiry for the metal at prices approaching recent high quotations. The steel oor- poration, according to report, has made preparations to meet increased busi- ness by appropriating large sums to augment efficiency. Various special- ties were relatively active and strong, but their movements exercised little or no influence in the way of outside sup- port. The tone of the foreign exchanges offered scant comfort to the construc- tive side of the account. London tarn- ed weak after a cheerful opening with the now familiar tale of another drop in consols. The weekly return of the Bank of England was a negative docu- ment, even though it showed a further strengthening of that institution's la- bility reserves. The Bank of France #ained over $2,000,000 gotd and its in- creased dlgcounts were partly offset by reduced advances. Bonds steady, but without especial features. Total sales, par -value, amounted to $1,809,000. TUnited States government bends unchanged on call. 8TOCKS. High. Bnter. ~——— Allis Chalmers pfd . Agricultural . Beet Sugar O ... . Car & ¥, .
