LITTLE CAT AND BIG POLICEMAN
Oficer Rescues Pussy From TIVE
Bow-wows.

Two big dogs this morning attacked
pretty little pet cat, with pink ribbon
about its neck, at the junction of Mont
gomery street and Newark avenue. They
were evidently bent on the destruction of
pussy The poor little feline bumped her
back as high as she could and spat as
violently as she ever did, but the dogs,
being two in number, were doubiy braye
and were not to be denied their sport.
They dashed after the cat and finally got
her conrened inside the fruit stand.
1t seemed as if pussy was done for.
when Officer Sheehan of the First Pre-
cinct saved her by routing the dogs with
the use of his shoe. They ran in two di-
rections. Pussy stayed under the fruit
stand until her tormentors had left. Then
she emerged The total absence of dogs
in the vicinity reassured her and she APP
preached Sheehan with a thankful neon
and rubbed against his trousers half q
dozen times. Sheehan stroked her back
and went off to chase two noisy boys.

CONNOLLY wins
He Tears Down the Stand
and Fences in the
Right Field.

Michael Connolly who had a bitter row
with the Equitable baseball nine a few
weeks ago over the possession of the
Johnston avenue grounds, has effectuaily
barred the Equitable team from further
use of that field. He has torn the stands
down and erected fence on the portion
of the field he leased from Mrs. Marie
Mangles, of Newark. The Equitable team
will play no more games there this sea-
son. No announcement has been made
as to the future plans of the team.
The trouble arose about a month ago
when Connolly attempted to collect the
balance of rent due him from the Equifa-
BILE team. Connolly had sub-leased the
grounds to the Equitable team for
twenty-five weeks at ten dollars Week.;
He had been paid $1Oo, leaving balaree
of twelve weeks rent.
David Driscol, representing the team,
had a heated argument with Connolly,
which wound up in fight. Arrests fol-
lowed.
Driscoll said that the team would use
the grounds and Connolly would not get
a cent more. Several of the joint owners
backed the Equitable people, but they
reckoned' without Connolly. He secured
a lease of that portion of the grounds
which. takes in the grand stand, first base
and right field. A fence was built around
this land This was the last straw for
the Equitables. The field was of no use
with one part boarded UP. Then Con-
molly got permission to tear the stands
down. This he did a few days ago and
carted the lumber away.
