At the NORTH END

There was more gloom I'm the vicinity
of Randall square last night than has
been In many a long month. No storm
OF the past winter, no cold or clustering
night ever made certain folks feel as
uncomfortable as they did after the sun
went down yesterday During the day
the parties managed TO keep their spirits
up. but the first of the evening was dark,
very dark. In Hedley's hall only dirges
were In order, and the youngest and most
thoughtless member of /. c. l. recog
nized that there are feelings too deep
for utterance and Joined i'm the Mum"
sociable.
1t was all due to a ball game. There
are good ball players in the North End
people. there always have been, but
somehow or, other on this occasion the
j. g. L. nine could not play the game.
On paper the makeup of the nine was in
vincible. There was Burbage, etc, but al
the game IL was another story. Things
went along as smoothly as a trolley car
the first few innings, and many North
odds were offered against the st. Pat
rick's Institute nine. the /. G. ]. competi-
tors. IL had gone around before the
parties reached the ball ground that the
st. Patrick's nine was made up OF kids"
IL was information az was information
and the North Enders were as sure of
victory as the machinists are their union
will be success. when the start was
made for the ball grounds. The game
as intimated started all right, but there
was break in the last OF the game. and
the st. Patrck's pitcher kept putting in
a mean, slow and tantalizing ball and
the score at the finish stood IL for the
ST. Patricks to for the North Enders.

their time in this foundry and afterwards
worked on important jobs throughout the
