Leicester, May 22.-There has been
a change in the management of the
pool room at Trainor's court in Chez

the building, and has secured a. share
in the bowling alley and pool room. He

barber shop connected with a saloon
run by his brother in Providence for
three years.
Miss Mary Ann Brennan took charge
of the store in the building today. and
Peter Kerrigan has gone in the bar
Der shop to learn the trade According
to talk that Spy reporter heard to-
day, those persons who made such an
objection to granting the license, will
make all the use possible of the fact
that John Neylons son is concerned in
the business. 1t is asserted that the
elder Neylon has invested money in
the enterprise. although the charge is
denied by those interested.
If any signs Of disorder are noted
they will be attributed to his influence.
1t is sure thing that signs of illegal
business will be looked out for even
if the managers do their prettiest to
run straight place.
