With Mrs. Charles l.. Tillinghast,
as BROAD Straet

Memorial Day was observed with en-
thusjasm at Pawtuxet and Lakewood, and
after the ceremonies participated in by
the veterans everyone took hold and
joined in making an enjoyable holiday.
At 10 O'Clock in the forenoon the Grand
Army men, accompanied by the Pawtuxet
Drum Corps, met the Apponaug Band and
Sons of Veterans at the Cole estate, and
LED by policemen Allen and Biglow, made
the annual parade, after which they pro-
ceeded to the cemetery and decorated
the graves OF their departed comrades.
The program at the cemetery was: Ex-
tracts from service book, Commander
Westcott: singing by schools, America"
tatto, bugle; prayer, by Rev. X. w.
Churchill, chaplain OF the post; address,
Rev. w. J. Reynolds; singing by schools,
"Red, White and Blue; decoration of
graves; volley by Sons of Veterans; sing
ing by schools, "A Tribute to Our Patriot
Bravo; bensdiction, Mr.. G.. III. Butler;
taps, bugie and drums.
In the afternoon there was free hospi-
sality and everyone in the village was en-
tertained by the Veteran Firemen and
other organizations.
During the day there was contest be-
tween the fire engines, Cataract No. 2 OF
Lakewood and Fire King No. OF Paw
tuxet. The latter threw a stream a dis
tance OF 200 feet, but the Lakewood en-
gine became disabled after having thrown
water 126 feet distant and withdrew from
the contest.
The match game OF baseball between
the married ana single men OF the fire
department awakened great interest and
brought out a large crowd. The married
men played we'll and ELECTED applause from
the crowd, both in their blunders and
skillful plays, but marriage seems to be a
failure, judging from the results of the
afternoon in the baseba arena, and
victory perched upon the banners OF the
men who had sweethearts instead OF
wives to encourage them.
Another game of base ball WAS played
between the Pawtuxet Juniors and the
Auburn High School mines on the home
grounds of the latter club. The result
was IL to IL in favor Of Pawtuxet. The
special features of the game were the
pitching OF Rico and the catching of
Coleman.

both cabooso and box car were much the
worse for wear after the collision, although
the train men escaped with comparatively
slight injuries. James Aquall was on the box
