The Owl Club, a well-known summer
organization, some of whose members
are at Coles Beach, made a surprise visit
TO that place yesterday afternoon. The
visitors were treated TO one OF caterer
Mulvey's very best clambakes, and so de-
lighted were they with the good things
that were provided that they will all
attend the clubs reunion at the same
place next month. The afternoon was
passed In very agreeable manner, Doat-
ing, fishing and swimming being among
the pleasures INDUCED. friendly
officer of the Second, who was among
the guests, proved hmelf the Grover
Cleveland, so far as fishing went, and he
was also gaze1 upon with admiration on
account of his costume and pipe. A we'll
known merchant of Doulgas avenue
proved his ability to get along as rapidly
in the water as on the land. A few more

There is trouble in a family in the
Tooleville district that is apt to prove very
disagreeable A short time ago the wife
of well-known resident died, leaving
two children, one aged about two years,
and the other seven or eight months old.
The mother of the deceased took charge
of the children, but neither the father
nor the neighbors were satisfied with the
treatment given them SO the father
moved all his household goods to
another tenement and took his chlirden
with him. A lady near where he moved
took the children, owing to the father
being rendered ill by attendance on his
wife in her last sickness. The grand
mother went TO this lady's house, took
| the younger of the children and all its
clothing to her home and refuses to give
up the baby to its father. The latter
will endeavor to recover the infant by
legal process.
Michael Mcmahon, one of the polite
clerks at Gilbert's drug store at the corner
of Charles street and Branch avenue,
will spend next week at Rocky Point.
1t takes much TO reprtss some peoples
lightness of heart. One would think that
having to get out of bed and walk four
miles TO work at an early nour would
| cause the eyes to be dull and the spirit
too wearied for those who had to do SO
to be affected by the beauty of summer
morn. Still the Italian laborers who
have TO go from the neighborhood of
Branch avenue to Roger Williams Park
TO begin their daily tasks, may be heard
singing the songs of their birthland as
they go to their work over the city streets
every morning.
Loyal Victoria Lodge, NJ u, held a
very successful meeting in its hall on

Thursday afternoon is the quietest time

Some young lads have adopted a style
OF fun, as they call il, which is apt to
prove expensive to their parents. The
youngsters as they go by certain small
stores fire in at the doors bricks and
stones with intent to vex the proprietors,
and careless of whether any one inside
| the store is struck and injured or not.
The Goldsmith Literary Association
will hold their second picnic of the
season at Marietta Grove tomorrow even

In an article i'm The NEWS on Shawmut
street some time ago reference was made
| to the "glories" and defects of this, for a
time, famous thoroughfare. The street is
now being graded, sidewalks built, and

clean or at least less dirty without the
use of patented cyclone. Alderman
Mccarthy has taken great interest in
/ this improvement, as well as the more
important one on West River street.
