dens played very fast polo they were

though fate was against them. Either
the ball would just graZe the cage or

they were booked for sure goal
but the proyerbial hard luck showed
up anu robbed them of "A score. The
game was, az whole. very scientific
and some phenomenal plays were made
by both aggregations.
The first period was the snappiest
and the hardest fought OF the game.
Both teams were in fine fettle and ex-
cellent spirit. but after Providence made
three goals and the visitors could only
capture one. the Meriden men lost their
speed and did not play with their usu-
al dash and vim. The second period
ended with a score OF 10 IN Grays'
favor. Both teams made two goals eacn
and every man worked hard. But IN the
last period khe Meridens could not
score. Although they tried every son-
ceivabe trick and all sorts of comblna-
tion plays they We're unable 10 pene-
trate Heffernan'S goal. Dick Pierce
played very snappy game and his
rushing mate, Lincoln, ala some phe-
nomenal work. Lincoln played "a cover
point game which was instrumental IN
securing five goals for the Grays. Muir
tagh and Conway served the ball in
grand style to the rushers and they al
so did some excellent blocking of the
Greens rushes. Heffernan and Cusick
both played a good game AT goal al
though Cusick lost two points by his
tendency to rush out Of the goal circle
and tackle the nearest man whether he
be a Gray or "A Green. "Blinker."
Hayes played stellar game his block
ing and driving being OF the highest or

and Dawson IN acceptable style but the
rushers were not able TO connect with

playing. Dawson. an old Pawtucket

ance of foreign trade in our favor ag-
gregates nearly 81, 700 0O0 900. and in the
meantime the net imports of gold have
been only about 150.000.000. At the

with the Alaska region, continue to add

at present Australia is sending us gold

hardly a matter for wonder that the en-

addition that the rest of the world is
becoming debtor to this country.
