a squirt and brought the ball near the
Lyceum goal Wood seized his oppor-
tunity and landed the ball in the net,
after 612 minutes play, scoring the
only goal of the evening for the Guilds.
Zen minutes after the ball was safely
lodged in the Guilds basket by Koran
of the Lyceums Connolly of the same
team repeated the trick Just IL min
utes later Koran made his second
goal fve minutes later and the Ly-
ceums last goal was made by Foley in
two minutes more. Neither side scored
after and the timers whistle told the
finish of the game. The final score
was; Lyceums II, Guilds ,.
The first half of the Father Mathew
ST. stephen game was decidedly one
sided, the Father Mathey men doing all
the scoring. The crippled St. stenhens;
team put up valiant fight. Burgoyne
and Pepper Of the Father Mathew team
divided the honors, both scoring two
goals from the field. Burgoyne made
the frst goal in 212 minutes after the
oloWlng OF the whistle. The ball bound
ed about the edge of the basket in the
most aggravating manner and finally
cropped into the net. Dorman of the st.
stephens took the ball the full length
OF The hall several times but his efforts
IN trying TO land a goal were fruitless,
Pepper eXtricated himself from the
punch of players under the net six min
utes after play, and dropped the sphere
INTO the basket very prettily. Burgoyne
tolloWed suit three minutes after. Pep
per again placed the ball within the net
Just two minutes before the end of the
first half. The score then was so, in
favor of Father Mathew.
1t looked as though the st. Stephens
would make a Garrison finish in the
second half and pull out a victory
Morgan popped the ball into the basket
ten minutes after play started. Dor
man failed on free try for goal on a
foul called on Maple for holding. Dor
man made several brilliant tries for a
goal but did not succeed. He retrieved
himself later, however by making a
pretty one IA minutes after the halt
began.
Some of the rooters then reminded
Wiseman it was due him TO score a
goal He therefore took the ball by Gle
YER manipulating down the hall and
Gagged 1t securely. The score then stood
SO, and the st. Stephens were playing
ike fiends They kept the ball continu-
ally bobbing around the Father Math-
ew goal and it even got as far as drop
ping in once. 1t refused to stay there,
however, bounding out in the most pro
Voklng manner. The st. Stephens root
ers were cheering their men to greater
endeaVors but the timers whistle cut
the game short with the ball under the
Father Mathew goal.

boys on account of the encouragement he
is giving them in athletics. A few days

boy scoring the largest number Of points
in the annual class games a season ticket
IN the Y. M. G. A. gymnasium. which is
equivalent to SO, that being the cost of
the ticket. The offer was submitted to
the high school committee and promptly
accepted, and the committee returned a

has been called for Boston next week

mind and assume the management of
a team, he would probably locate in
Brockton as that city was among the
top nOtchers of the New England

HORSEMEN DISTURBED.
Possible Sale of Fair Grounds Makes

Trainers of horses at the fair grounds
are awaiting the decision of the Worces-
ter Agricultural Society today with eager
interest. The decision Of the society as to
whether it will accept the offer for the
grounds means a great deal to the train
ers whose stables are located at the fair
grounds. If the grounds are sold and the
new owners decide to cut them up at an
early date, 1t will mean that horse train
ers will have to pack up their goods and
move. AS there is no other track in Wor-
cester on which horses can be trained. the
stables will be removed from Worcester

Charles River Track Will Be Practically

John F. Casey received yesterday
from Billy Sullivan, assistant manager

letter which portends a deplorable state

summer. The track retains it's mem
bership in the L. A. w, and, of course,
the outlaws will have nothing to do
with it. Sullivan writes that the only
date which is booked for the track is
the national meet, which will be held
there during August. He also says he
does not expect to see another date
asked for. AT this time last year there
were scores of bookings for the track

Good Advice.

Here is common sense advice given
by a Missouri editor to the girls OF
his town: "Don't hang around the
depot unless you are going away or
are there to meet friends. Don't go
to church and take a back seat with
escort, and then whisper AMI giggle
through the service. Don't be loud,
b~oisterous and slangy. Stand on
your dignity; don't form acquain-
tances quickly. Don't carry your
heart on your sleeve, and don't throw
yourself in the arms of every good
looking drummer or well-dressed
stranger who comes to town. BE
womanly; be modest; be thoughtful
and serious at times. Don't unseS
yourself and thus lose woman ssweet-
est and hottest charm. Don't regard
your long-legged brother as q NUS
ance; don't turn up your nose a
your old fashioned father and his
poor grammar; and above all don
play "A Hot Time on the piano

Better Look Out

The following appears in a society
paper: "In last weeks issue of your
clever paper there is an article on
sdiaphanous' underwear from a cor
respondent. Would you allow me to
say a few words about sdiaphonous
upper Wear?' Last week, on a very
hot day, | went into a store and was
thinking how cool and shady it was
after the glare outside, when I saw
a young married lady ! knew by sight
advancing into the store. / thought
for a moment it was an optical illu-
sion, as I saw a female form divine
enter in skin tights! As she came
farther into the shade from the glare
behind her in the street, / then saw
she had on a pretty, innocent-looklng
muslin dress, and looked like any
other lady dressed for the street. It
would be well if ladies who wear these
pretty and becoming muslin dresses
would remember to put on q cotton
skirt underneath these very trans

Two Yonng Men Injured.

News vas received here Sunday
from Henry, ten miles from here, Of
a serious accident which happened to
a 13-year-old son of William Morgan
a prominent planter of that place.
The boy walked up behind a horse
and hit him, ~whereupon the horse
kicked the boy, landing his heels
on the frontal bone of the skull, which
necessitated the removal of a consid-
cradle portion of his skull. The
operation was performed by DR.. Lee
Wood, of this place, assisted by
DIR. Williams of Perry. At last ac-
count the boy was doing well, and
may entirely recover.
News was also received here of an
accident which happened to the son
of York Lemaire, a prominent farmer
residing about two miles from Perry's
Bridge. The boy had climbed a
china tree after berries, and fell
about twelve feet, headforemost to
the ground, and, in attempting to
catch on his hands, had both arms
broken between the wrists and ell
bows. DR.. Williams Of Perry, was
called in and set the broken limbs.
The boy was resting well when last

Quietly Married.

To the pleasant surprise OF his
many friends, our smiling Ex-mayor,
j. Nelson Greene, arrived last Satur-
day with a charming wife, he having
been quietly married in New Orleans
on the 18th of August to Mrs. Ma
thilde Smith, the pretty and accom-
plished daughter of Joseph Moiaison,
of that city. In as much as the
Judge surprised his friends, his friends
determined to surprise the Judge, so
the entire third and part of all the
other wards in the parish rendered
him a delightful serenade shortly af-
ter his arrival. A consignment of
violins, mando3ins and guitars having
failed to arrive on time, his many adj
mirers, not to be outdone, provided
themselves with anything handy, and
rendered one of Wagner's master
pieces on c~oW-bells, conch-shells and
coW-horns, under the leadership OF
Prof. Eraste Mouton.
The Judge and his pretty partner
made a hasty but graceful acknowl-
edgement of the honor, declaring that
it was one of the most fetching rem
ditions they had eve heard. Mr..
Mouton replied in a brief speech, and
the crowd then repaired to the Veran-
da Hotel where a Delmonico supper
(which had been ordered a week pre-
viously by Mr.. Mouton, and was paid
for the next day by the Judge) was
served, and many toasts drank to the
health, happiness and prosperity o.
Judge and Mrs, Greene, in which the
MERIDIoNAL heartily joins.
Mr.. and Mrs. Greene are at home
to their many friends every day il
the week, for the present, at the resi-
dence of Elias Broussard.
