The evening tribune. (Pawtucket, R.I.) 189?-190?, 1897-03-06


worked long and earnestly for his promo
tion to the highest gift In the power OF
the people of the State. The Mayor, how
ever. claims that he cannot see his way
clear to accept either one of these PROPOSE
tions. His duties as Mayor OF this city
are very exacting and call for considerable
of his time.
Again. his constantly increasing practice
would suffer to great extent If more bur-
dens were laid upon his shoulders. The
differencesIbetweeD both wings are upon the
head of the ticket, yet, both are actuated
by the one common impulse-namely, to
defeat the central figure of the ring, and
with him. the rest of the ticket. The
Democratic leaders want Mayor Colts
chalk for Governor, and they feel, II DIR.
Remington's consent can be obtained, that
by placing him upon the legislative
ticket, they will have winning
candidate. nv. Remington is young,
clean and progressive, and Is not
looked upon as a politician, therefore
taking these qualifications into account
they argue that he can defeat Senator
Freeman.

Emanuel Vadnais, the Broad street
stable keeper, let horse and carriage to a
man last Sunday for trip to Providence.
The man nor the rig did not show up at
the barn Sunday night nor Monday. MIR.

the next day after it.

tian Temperance Union was held yester-
day afternoon at the residence of Mrs.

Insured For 500.
Lawyer James F. Murphy has been ap-
pointed, or will be appointed, admins
traitor upon the estate OF the late William
J. Brogan. 1t seems that the deceased had
been carrying an insurance policy amount
ing to 500 upon his life, and is paid up to
date. The policy is issued through the
John Hancock Insurance Company and is
in possession of parties on Dexter street.
Brogan's father is an inmate at the Home
of the Little Sisters OF the Poor, and learn
ing of the policy being in existence, sent
for Lawyer James Murphy and placed the
case in his hands. Lawyer Murphy has
taken the necessary steps to get possession
of the policy. No objections have been
raised to giving up the policy, yet the par
ties holding it wish to be on the safe side.
No doubt when the proper person is ap-
pointed the policy will be forthcoming.
| The money when obtained by Mr.. Brogan
| will be turned over to the Home to be ap-
| piled to the care and maintenance of him
| self during the balance of his life.

James Galloway, resident of the West
Side, was married recently, and in recog-
milton of the event and to show their APP
probation of him few of his friends as

the course of the evening one of the guests
disappeared for few moments, and upon
his return he carried with him handsome
kitchen rocker, which he presented to Mr..

Mr.. Galloway was visibly affected by their
kindness, but managed to thank them in
suitable words.

to the members was transacted.

Music in the Air.
Overtures have been made by unknown
parties, presumably by the Citizens Com
mittee, for the use of the Grand Army
Hall for Monday evening, March Is. AS
far as can be learned the promoters intend
calling monster meeting of all citizens
OF the city, irrespective of party lines, who
are dissatisfied with the present dominant
party, to take some action toward placing
a representative ticket in the field. That

quite apparent by the earnestness of the
leaders of this movement.
Left For Parts Unknown.
A few evenings ago Mrs. Patrick Burke
appeared at the police station and made a
complaint against her husband. She said
that they had been married but a short
time, and since the date of the marriage
her husband had contributed nothing
towards her support. She further alleged
that he was drunk most of the time and
had pawned her clothes to obtain money
to buy drink. Last evening her husband
appeared at the station and told Secgt.

had left for parts unknown, and taken all
