The railroad men from this section with
a few from Riverside and dozen or more
special guests had a hot time at the
Warwick club yesterday, They left the
square az a little past and were on the
grounds in less than an hour and the
fun began at once. There was swim
ming. pool, cards and other games for
a while. when some one suggested foot
race. The race was open TO all and there
were about Is entries and Il was won by
Conductor Clarke. This was followed by
a race for conductors only and Clarke
captured this Then came a fat mans
race, but the real fat men claim that
they got no show as some OF the skin
ney' fellows were allowed 10 run. Motor
man Crowley came in ahead I'm this raae
and was presented with a ladys powder
pun and a box OF powder. Ball was then
the cry and teams were made up as fol-
lows: Connors, Austin, Heffermau, Crow
ley. Clarke, Gorton. sharpe Mathewson.
Good, this being the team from Riverside.
Hughes. McDun, Fielder Hackett. Pa
dien, Bates, Fogarty Ward, Mccormick.
and resulted In score OF li-3 I'm favor
of Capt. Connor's team. This was fol-
lowed by a lunch and after an hours rest
Captain Hughes came TO the conclusion
that he had not been fairly beaten so a
second team was made up and was as
follows: Hughes. Fogarty, Cabana. Pas
quallia, Gorton. Clarke. Nhpple, Gay.
Potter, Ward, and the other. Connors,
Austin. Good, Crowley, Heffernan, Haze
kett, Wolf, Mathewson. Bough. This
time the score was 40 In favor of Hughes
team and they laid their first defeat TO
Bates, who wanted 10 demonstrate his
ability 10 catch but could not tit the
chest protector that WAS an extra large
one and borrowed for the occasion. Eddie
Potter showed himself 10 be a regular
burglar al base stealing and would have
stole round trip had IL not been for the
eagle eye of Fogarty, who put him out
within a few inches of the home plate
Billy Mathewson gave "a very pleasing
exhibition of ground and lofty tumbling,
but had no idea of uoing so when the
game started. Crowley is credited with
not registering a kick. There was more
fun than science in the game and there
will be another one i'm short time, for
each team believes that IL knows more
about the game than the other.
Mrs. McVey. one of the guests after the
tempting dinner WAS enjoyed, gave a
number of vocal selections that We're
pleasing.
Narragansett Assembly OF Good Fellows

number of the leading members.

dates We're given the third degree, after
which luncheon was served. The COM
mttee In charge of the trip 10 Washing
ton Lodge of Riverpoint Saturday eyen-
ing reported that everything was In
readiness. 1t is quite probable that there
will be no more degree work until fall.
Residents living along the new Daniel
sonville line are riding on the line to their
hearts content today for there are no
fares taken, but this will end at II to-
night, and from then on everything will
have to contribute to the support of the
road.
