ard both sides kept at il till the last
moment. The no-license committee are
Juollant over the result, satisfied with
their victory and work we'll done. They
certainly earned It, for never has the
town been so strong '- santimen. for
no-license in Is years.
Rev. James p. Tuite said this morn
ing to spy reporter that he was sure
OF a no-liCense victory. He also stated
that he believed if the work Of the past
week had not been done, the town
would have gone for license by heavy
majority. Rev. John L. Sewall reiter-
dted the statements this afternoon and
gave great credit TO FIR. Tuite for the
part he took in the campaign,
The other Offices were uniformly filed
according to the forecast printed in
The spy a week ago.
Timothy Howard was chosen mod
orator Of the meeting without oppose
ton The citizens csucus ticket gained
an overwhelming victory, much larg-
er one than it's most ardent supporters
hoped for Besides electing their en-
tire list of selectmen, their candidate
for tax collector, L. S. Woods, Jr., won
out over Charles =. Batcheller by 81
votes. This was considered by the cit
liens party as the hardest office for
them to capture, and they are waxing
gladstone tonight.
The contest for road commissioner
was a pretty one between the fou- can
didates, Freeman r. Doane, who was
expected TO win, being beaten out by
Stephen LOTUS the citizens candidate.
The majority of II for no-hcense was
within Il votes Of the figures Of the
committee this afternoon, and they are
more than satisfied considering the
strength Of the opposition.

Twelve Worcester
County Towns

A LARGE VOTE POLLED.
Spencer, North Brookfeld
and Webster Break Rec
OrdS-License Jncreas5,

The last batch Of Worcester county
spring town meetings was held today,
when L towns in the south and west
part Of the county faced NJ. Moderator.
There were several notable contests,
and in the main an extremely heavy
vote vas poll-d. In three towns all
records We're broken, 80 per cent of the
entire registration being polled. The
sum total OF the license figures show
that not only has there been a notable
increase ian the yes vote, but there has
been more than d COR ssponding falling
of in The 30 votes.
Ine main contests of the day existed
a Webster, Spencer, and North
BrookdeId, while winners at Oxford
came home with flying colors with a
dreadful narrow margin; so close in
deed tha- the victorious men We're
hardly in mood to proclaim their vic
tory with any degree of enthusiasm.
At Webster the old might watch
4 as defeated, and the factory town
VIII have a regular force of truly po-
Acemen who VIII be equipped with the
billy, the blue ana the brass. An at
tempt TO spring an appropriation Of
SO, 900 for public park was also de-
1rat4d. The town remains wet by an
increased majority on the yes side.
At North BToOklelG the citizens tic
&et captured everything in sight, and
tne republicans must content them
selves with figuring out how the whole
zhing happened. The energetic work
OF the no-license workers mad its re-
suit, and the town will remain dry for

DANDY FIFTH AT HOME.
Lieut.. Buckneer Tells Of
His Tour of
Duty.

Lieut. George Buckneer of Co. G, 9Th
Massachusetts Volunteers returned to
This city yesterday afternoon from
Greenville. S. c. He was accompanied
home by two other Worcester men Of
the dandy" 9Th, Corp. Henry Clark and
Private William Bowzey.
All looked the picture of health.
bronzed in face with the looks of an
athlete. All expressed themselves as
perfectly satisfied with the life in the
volunteer army as far as it went but
had no desire to return to it. They ar
rived in Boston early this morning; af-
ter being reviewed by his eXcellency
Roger Wolcott and surrendering the
state and national flags at the state
house they made a bee line for their
homes.
Lieut.. Buckneer was seen at his home
on Wabash avenue by a Spy reporter
He expressed himself as being satisfied
with his nine months tour of duty I'M
der the southern skies, but was salts
fled to quit the army for good.
He told an interesting tale of the reg
iments wanderings since leaving camp
at South birmingham. The first camp
Camp Meade in Pennsylvania, where
they Arrived Sept. u and left Nov. Is,
when they proceeded to Camp Wether-
ell at Greenville, S. c., arriving there
Nov. is. The Massachusetts boys were
received with true southern hospitality
and soon became the especial pets of the
town If any Of the soldiers fell sick
the good hearted townspeople promptly
volunteered to nurse them back 10
health. ....
When eventually the regiment was
ordered home, the people in that vicin
ity expressed their regret at parting
with the Massachusett boys, whom
they thought more of than the other
regiment encamped there, among which
were many southern national guards
men. IL. s
Lieut. Bucl1neer Indignantly denied
the reports circulated by Boston pa
pers against Colonel Whitney. He said
the men fairly idolized their colonel,
who took an exceptional interest in the
common soldiers welfare. He said that
Col. Whitney did not hold the reEi-
ment a month longer than was nee
essary, as alleged. In getting paid off
after being mustered out the Fifth re-
ceived the extra months pay allowed
all enlisted men who enlisted for the
war, and who served within the limits
OF the country. Inc men dlo not oDJect
to the pay, but We're surprised to hear
that the Second and Ninth Massachu-
sets volunteers were shut out of the
! extra pay.
Private Bonzey corroborated the lieu
tenants statement regarding Col
Whitney, and said the commander Of
the Fifth was all right" which, in
the language of the soldiers, means
about as he says. Private Bonzey is
stopping with his sister, Mrs Gather
inc Bonzey, on Orchard street.

GETTING READY.
Baseball Men Are Arranging the Details
Of the League Season.

VI lllG GCdSuC 0CaSO''
The base ball magnates of the Wor-
cester ball team came to this city yes
terday. They were President c. A.
Marston, Treasurer F. w. Mason and
Manager Frank J. Leonard. Messrs.
Leonard and Mason came here to stay,
the length of their stay depending on
the success which the venture meets.
The purpose of the visit was to begin
arrangements for the planting of the
Worcester pennant winners in this
city.
Manager Leonard and Treasurer Ma
son viii confer with the officials of the
Consolidated Street Railway today in
regard to street railway facilities in
transportation to and from the grounds.
They hope to secure such facilities that
there VIII be no cause for complaint
among patrons of the game.
One thing base ball enthusiasts of
Worcester can rely on, is that the team
win not suffer in the managerial line.
Mr. Leonard has had several years ex-
! perience handling ball teams, and
knows the game all the way through.
He bears an excellent reputation
among base ball men for his gentle
manly bearing, and although he never
forgets to look for the interests Of his
team first, last and all the time he has
never been accused of sharp prac-
! tees as other managers have. He or
| iginally came from NewburypOrt, but
has resided Of late years in Lynn
His first experience in handling a
ball team was with Newburyport in
1885, The next two years found him in
Manchester, n. H. In 1889 he was with
Portsmouth, N. H., which was then a
member of the New England league in
which the Worcester team played ball.
The following year he went to Auburn.
n. Y, and in 1870 to Omaha, Neb.
He managed the Portland team in 1891
and Lewiston in 1892. In 1898 he was
with Dover. When Worcester was with
the New England league in 1894 Man
ager Leonard had charge of the Paw
tucket team, which he kept in third
place until it disbanded. For the fol-
lowing two years he was with Port
land, and last year found him with An
gusta Ga. He has had a wide experi-
ence on the diamond and has invaris blv
conducted good teams
The makeup of the team at present
is as told in The Spy several DAYS ago,
Manager Leonard Indignantly denied
| the rumor that kuhns is to play with
| Boston. He also adds in that connec-
| ton, You can say positively in The
Spy that if any player begins the sea-
son with Worcester he will finish If
with Worcester"
The opening game win be Patriots

The latter team is composed of former
college players. Last year it trimmed

ally the same
