Brother Joe kicked the traces ana me deal -was off.—Hartford Oourant.It was an off day for the City Amateur league Saturday and no games 1 were played on the regular schedule. The only game was that between the Washington Hill and the female baseball team at Riverside parkk. It was a cold, dreary day and the rain was falling gently when the six female players with three males to assist them left the center on a parade to the park. In order to make a few dollars and pay the visitors something the grounds had been surrounded by canvas, but this availed nothing. There was a big crowd down there, but thehy did not all go inside the canvas roped field. There were too many good viewing places from the roadway and the bills near the railroad tracks. Probably three hundred or a little over paid admission I and the rest occupied the free positions. The game itself was a funny on to watch. Maude Nelson was the twlrler for the girls as they were Called, and she did pretty good work as a slab artist. The Washington Hills toyed with them, however, and at the end of six innings, when the game was called, the score stood 14 to 7 in favor of the Hills.
