SOUGHT A GOOD TIME.
Kelly's Long Bicycle Ride With a
Badly Cut Hip.
Increase of The Running Time at Fletch-
er's Mills-Norih End Notes.

young man, who gave the name OF
Horace Kelley and who claimed to reside
on Mender street I'm woonsockot left that
city for Providence looking for a good
time as no himself expressed it,yesterday.
Perhaps he got 1t, but he was still look
ing for IL after DR.. Lpko Barley and
Mark Nichols, the pharmacist, had
dressed an ugly cut on his right hip.
The story Kelly tells has about IL some
elements OF impro bility. He says he left
woonsoeket on his bicycle with pint
bottle of Millerville whisky in his
pocket, and when a mile this eide OF
the northern metropolis he fell off his
wheel and struck on the hip in which
was the pocket with the whisky bottle,
and though BADLY cut by the broken
bottle he rode to Pawtucket.
He at any rate came into Nichols p har-
macy on Randall square after getting off
a Pawtucket car. and he had one of the
legs of his trousers soaked in blood. He
was accom- panied by friend named Frank
McIntire of 277 Dexter street. Mr.. Mich
OILS examine the wound ana took Kelly
to his store at the corner Of fremont and
Charles street and summoned DIR.
Luke BARLEY. The latter found
Kelly's right eye had been badly cut
by the broken bottle and it required a
good deal of urging on the Doctors part
for Kelley to permit the cut to be sewed
up. This was finally done however. and
withstanding the wound was an ugly
one and Kelley must have suffered from
the loss of blood he and his chum started
up Gladstone avenue still looking for
good time.

NORTH END NOTES.
The Second station patrol wagon has
been handsomely painted and it looks
very inviting, but while il costs no more
to rice in ii than before 1t was reprinted,
the rrobn bi,ity is those who ride in 1t
will be as unwilling as ever to do so.
Yesterday 1t went out four times, but
the old Central station wagon that was at
this station while the repainting was go
ing on t6at the record for one night.
Patrol drivers MoGair and Crowell are
ss proud of the wsgon as IL 1t was a
Watch Hill hotel society drag.
EKpressmen Eugene Parker went to
Central Falls yesterday with his team on
business, and while there his wagon
collided with a heavy oil team and two
shafts of Mr.. Parkor's wagon were broken.
The mem bers OF the Emmet Temperance
Cadets are now calling one OF their com
rades "The Lost Boy" The reason for
this is that some few nights ago nve OF
them went out to do picket duty at Gen.
tcrdGle. One of the pickets named David
Barry cot 6stray and the officer in COM

and found he had strsyed to Wanskuck,
where he was quietly sitting on a stone
waiting for a Centerdale cor.
