ENACT A VARIED PROGRAM.

MiIlbury, Sept 10.-Despite the regu-
lar police officer at the centre last
night. the hoodlums played their
pranks and had a general good time
The participants assembled in front of
the town hall, and, after taking on
cargo of the ardent, proceeded to carry
out unique and noisy program. Sing
| ing and dancing We're the principal di-
versions, with a few merry scraps on
tho side.
This disgraceful hubbub continued till
the regular police officer showed up,
and caused the crowd to scatter in ev-
cry direction.
The town today was filled with
DRINKS, and they could be seen stag
gering about the streets and lying
about several vacant lots and on the
doorsteps Of stores, especially on the
west side.
The base ball game of yesterday was
as good game as has been seen IN
Millbury this season. The boys, al
though beaten by a score of 10 to o,
played a magnificent game, and had
only one error to their credit. Ira
cey, the crack pitcher of the Whitlns,
was hit freely. and the boys secured 10
hits, with total of IA, off him. Sulli-
van, the boy wonder, pitched fine
game, and the fans think that if he had
/ cen put in the box at the first of the
game Millbury would have won. 1t
was the same case on Labor day, when
Sullivan was taken out the box with
the game Well in hand, and Fosberg
substituted, with the result that Rock
dale won.
Many of the fans think Fosberg is
no more use for Millbury, and that he
should be dropped. Manager Thomas
Sullivan told The Spy man, today, that
Fosberg would be held by the team,
but that Joseph Sullivan would pitch
in next Saturdays game.
The Blackstone Valley league season
closes next Saturday, and it is hoped
here that Millbury will win its game
with the Baskerville Foxes. If this
should happen, Millbury and Whitins
would be tied for first place, and it
would be necessary to play off the tie.
Many of the Millbury fans think that
the local team can beat Whitins
Today was an ideal one, and the
weather conditions were perfect. Many
people took advantage of the good
weather and visited Millbury. The
| cars onthe Worcester and Suburban
|
of bicycle riders from the Vernons, the
| Worcester Cycle Club. the Daytons and
/ the Greenwoods from Worcester visited
the town Bicycle riders passed
through the town all day in crowds,
and many local riders went for long
spins in the country.

| fathers from New York, began services
