Then they rubbed a coat of whitewash on them, after which they jumped upon our local players without pity and without consideration for the feelings of the bewildered and amazed spectators. Ordinarily Danbury could stand the defeat, for the place is teemin nngith philosophy, but that our club’s aterloo should be administered by a club from South Norwalk, of all places,' 1s whfiDanbury’s grief is intense ad a team from that pre- tentious city of Bridgeport taken us into camp we could have swallowed it, but that it should come from South Norwalk is too utterly awful to think about. And what a drubbing it was— 18 to 0—far more disastrous than the Y. M. C. A. ’3 gave to any upstart team that faced them. Q.——————_ Shot His \Vife and Killed Himself. ST.
