pie gathered to see if he would. The
man in the white hat found that he
was up against it and refrained. The
crowd enjoyed this hugely
The game was most interesting. Gin
ton went to the bat, with O'Malley in
the box and Fadgen behind the bat.
Ball played first M. Bose second and
-O'Brien. third. Connaughton played
short, Joe Ennis took centre and Null
len and Nolan played right and left
respectively.
Mt. Washington had Driscoll in the
box and Mahoney wearing a mask
Carleton, Duncan and Kelly covered the
three bags in that order; Ennis was
short, Sliney played centre, and Moo
ney and G. Ennis went to right and
left field respectively.
The pitchers, the dust and the wind
were a little too much for the stickers
in the first inning. Clinton raped out
two runs in the second, O'Brien and
Ball coming in. There was nothing
but goose eggs till the second half of
the eighth, when the visitors tied the
score, Duncan and Sliney scoring.
The first half Of the ninth was disas-
trous for Mt. Washington. The Clin-
ton batting was something terrific.
They pounded out four runs and the
game in few brief moments.
The score:
Clinton ....0 2 0 0 0 4-6
Mt Wash'n.. 20 0 0 0 0 2 o.
The visitors returned to Everett on
an evening train. They are anxious to
get on a game with Webster or Graf
ton. They will play away from home
for the entire season. Their grounds
have been taken for highway purposes,
and they have not so far been fortunate
enough to secure another field.
The warrant for the town meeting to
be held Saturday night, contains the ar
ticle relative to building a new police
station, but the wording of the article
is surprise to nearly everybody. The
reading is:
ITO see if the town will buy land and
erect a new building to be used for a
court house and police station, and
will raise and appropriate a sum not
exceeding ten thousand dollars therefor.
or act in any manner relating thereto"
This is the first that the public has
heard about buying land for a new
court house and police station. The
structure enjoys an ideal location where
it now is.
There couldn't be better place than
this" said Chief Bates, as he sat in
his office in the police station today. "At
least, l can think of no location that is
better"
1t is believed by some that the arti
Gle has been thus cunningly worded
through the instrumentality of some
interested persons who desire to re-
pair the old police station at an eX-
pense of nearly $4,000. If the voters
could be brought to believe that it viii
be necessary for them to buy more
land, away would go the new police
station, and possibly the repairs to the

in talking with leading citizens. TODAY,
that the probabilities are much against
the town voting to buy land 1t is req

will stand where it now is for many
a year to come.
William G.. McGlinchey, a member
Of the police station committee, said:
II haven't consulted with the other
members of the committee about it. I
do favor a new police station. but I
don't favor a new site. There is no
more need for the town to buy land
upon which to locate the police station
than there is for it TO build equity

site could be selected than the one
