LITTLE PIGGY WAS BADLY USED.

North Brookfeld, June 5.-The st.
Joseph c. T. A. S. will be represented
by an athletic tI2m at the annual do
cesar field day Which takes place in
Westfield on Labor day. At last nights
meeting of the society, Rev. James P.
| Tuite who has been president since its
inception, encouraged sending a team
to compete against the fast men who
are always on hand at the annual meet.
! Almost without exception, the mem
! bers of the society are in favor of the
plan, and with FIR. Tuite's sanction and
| encouragement its success is assured
1t is likely that the following athletes
will be the ones chosen to represent
| their society against the cracks from
Worcester and other places: John NJ.
Noonan, Patrick Conroy, John Manix,
Thomas Humphrey, James P. McCar-
thy, James Donovan, Frank J. MahOn-
ey, James Cuddy, Matthew ]. Sullivan,
and William H. Hatch.
This number may be increased or
diminished but will probably be exact
ly as it now stands. All these men won
points at the dual meet in Spencer
Memorial day, when the majority of
the men made their initial appearance
in athletics No trouble is anticipated
from the dual meet as nothing has
been heard from the N. E. A. A. A. u,
in regard to the threatened wholesale
disqualifications and the men competed
in perfect good faith under the advice
that the games did not require a sane
ton.
Mrs. Hannah Heffernan was be-
fore Trial Justice Boutwell, this morn
ing charged with drunkenness and was
sentenced to serve a year at the Wo
mems reformatory at Sherborn. Mrs.
Heffernan was arrested at the insti-
cation Of her husband James Heffer-
nan, whom she berated soundly in the
court room as being the drunken mem
Der of the family and the cause of her
misfortune. She is an old offender and
has served twice before.
Hayes original Virginia troubadours
were the attraction at Lashaway park
tonight, and drew a large crowd of
North Brookfield pleasure-seekers. The
performance was rated as excellent,
and is sure to capture large crowds
during the week. The barring of teams
from the park during performances has
proven a blessing to the pedestrians.
who now have nothing to complain of
except the great amount of dust they
have to encounter going TO and from
the park. Superintendent Jefts is at
a loss to overcome this, as there is no
available place for walk, and the only
remedy seems to be to have the road
spTinkled
The North Brookfeld high school
boys do not look with any degree of
satisfaction on the plan Of having the
annual meet of the W. c. S. A. A. at
Southbridge instead of Spencer. AS
North Brookfield is out of it at present,
the boys have no voice in the matter
and are not saying much, but those
with whom The Spy reporter has talked
do not look with favor on the plan.
Nothing but the actions of the delegates
themselves has killed the sport in Spen-
Ger which in previous years drew large
crowds from Leicester, North Brook
field and Warren.
One of the electric cars of the War
rem, Brookheld and Spencer road was
distinctly and literally ION the pig" last
evening. 1t was for but a short time,
and now what is left of piggy is not
even fit for lard. The car was run
ming merrily along from Lashaway
park toward Spencer, when a young pig
of an inquiring turn wanted to see the
wheels go round" He tried to stop
the car but the car came out on top
piggy passing underneath, and the last
that could be seen of him was his legs,
as he waved a sOrrowful and reprOach-
fur farewell to the conductor.
