day and the result IL that every "crsnk" is
as happy as though he had won small for
tune. The Wanderers have hal hard luck
since the opening Of the season, having
les: three games, but yesterday the tide
turned in Pawtuckets favor and people
were reminded Of last year when it meant
defeat for any team to meet the Wan
derers.
The visiting eleven Saturday were the
Consnicuts of Fa | River, formerly the
Cbscs Street Rovers. The team has been
very much strengthened go much go, that
in last Saturdays game with the Rovers
they were defeated only by the referees
decision.
Ju u'ging from their record so far the
Wanderers thought they had as much as
ih y could easily handle, but they found it
no trouble to send the leather III ing through
the Conanicuts' goal seven times and not
allowing it to stay in their own territory
more thar minute at time, finishing the
game With large goose egg chalked down
IOr tnr IOnaDlCuIs.
There is but one reason for this, and il is
that the Pawtucket team played better bail
than they did in the Rover game. They
played together and started in with energy
aud spirit that carried everything before
them aud meant cure victory.
Jack Stewart was t. have been in goal
for the Wanderers, but OH account of a
strained leg be was obliged to lsy off, The
makeup was: Jeffrey. goal; Read and
Fsgsn, full backs; Finn, w. Stewart and
Mcconnell, hslf.backs; Davis and Nc.
Cam, right wing; O'Neill and Adams, left
wing; S. jenkins, centre. Umpire

Brooklyn Lopgfelows and shosed himself
to be the right man i, tie right plsce.

The Conauicu.s wore their new suits and
they looked great.
