The audience at Salem set good ex-

indication Of love Of good sport. Good

Last night two very fast games were
played. The game was polo, and not

From the reports the spectators appreciated
the game, and II is to be hoped that the
players who are inclined to do dirty work
will take the tip.

Ing with the gravity of the situation
In Crete, and expressing fear Of a war

Says The Chronicle in an editorial: (:
Europe is face to face with a dramatic
situation. Prince George Of Greece is
the romantic figure. He Is bound on
romantic business. He is a born sailor
and a born fighter, and happens to be
the cousin and intimate friend OF the
car whose life he saved in Japan"
A dispatch to The Chronicle from Rome
says that the report that the Russian
feet on the Black sea is approaching the

officials there promised to allow free
exit TO the Christians. but a Mussulman
mob closed the town gates. As the town
Is encircled by walls. the Christians are

should be bombarded, i'm which case the
situation would be equally critical for
Christians, as well as Turks.
The correspondent of The Times at

SALEM, Feb. I2.-The Pawtuckets found
. new mascot acre last night in the person
of "Jake" Md-se, who took trip up from
Boston last evening to witness the game.
The large number Of people present saw
the home team completely outplayed, and
after the first period they had no more
show of winning the game than junk
dealers horse would have of capturing the
Suburban
Those who witnessed the game were
unanimous In expressing the opinion that
the passing and general work of the Paw
tuckets was the finest exhibition OF team
work seen here this season. The game
was very smooth and entirely devoid OF
rough play, as the fact Of only one foul
being called by the referee indicates. This
was made by w. Whiting for holding
Bartlett.
The defence of both teams was 50 good
that not goal was made on a long shot,
and the visitors made all OF theirs by
clever work near the cage. II. Whiting,
Bone and Cunningham worked their tri-
angle game to perfection. Bone would
get the ball, pass to Whiting, who, instead
of shooting would quickly pass to Cum
ningham, who played to the right of the
home goaltender, and stop or goal was
the result in every instance, none OF the
drives went wide Of the goal. This was
played repeatedly on the Salems, who
could not apparently get on to the game.
For the home team, most Of the work was
done by Bartlett and Griffin.
Hipson was very fast, but accomplished
little, and H. long drives, IL they passed
the halfback did not go by the goal tender.
During the last period, about ten minutes
before the close of the game, Gendreau
came on the floor, and what little playing
he did was very good. The audience did
not receive the Pawtuckets kindly when
they came on the floor, but before the close
of the game they showed their love Of good
sport by applauding their fine work at fire.

Willie Virgins and his chum, Tommy
Tcmpkins, were sitting together on the
cu-bing down the street the other day.
when Mrs. Virgins came to the front
door and glanced up and down the
street as if looking for some one, says
the Ohio State Journal. Presently she
spied the object of her search and called
out:
''Willie, l want YOU"
She then reentered the house and
busted herself about her household du-
ties.
A minute later Mrs. Tompkins put
her head out of window half block
away and yelled at the top of her voice:
"Tom-myi You come home this very

Both boys remained motionless.

Neither the pleading voice of Mrs.

the two boys and they both remained

mothers again disappeared. About two
