GOOD RAID
Capt. laxrencs's Long Quest
Results In Big Game.

Capt. Lawrence made a successful raid
a; 70 Wickenden street yesterday after
noon.
The captains posse consisted OF Patrol
men William 5canlon and w. l. Turner
and the premises they made a descent
upon were those run as a boarding hotsc
by John ana Mary Roderick
The doors were guarded, and by this
means nearly 20 people. mostly Poru-
guese. were rounded up. Seven men and
a woman were arrested for drunkenness
A few bottles OF beer were found In the
room where most OF the crowd had as
sembled. but n search prosecuted mp
stairs resulted In several racks OF beer
being found In trunks and boxes.
In n heEcoop In the rear OF the house
was found four racks. each containing "a
bottles Of beer. and piled up near these
was 100 empty bottles.
The raid was more than satisfactory to
Capt Lawrence. for he had been trying
for several weeks TO get evidence against
the place, and had been foiied so often
that he almost despaired Of procuring IT
The chance that he had been looking and
hoping for came at last, and the Rod
ericks were quickly caught In the police
In the sixth district court today Rod
ericks and his wife Mary pleaded guilty
to tho charge Of keeping n grog shop.
Each was held for the grand jury In 1900.
She was also fined go and cests and sen
fenced TO jail for 20 days for making an
Illegal sale. He was similarly sentenced
on each OF two complaints for selling and
keeping for sale.

Rev. Father Eugene Sheehy of Bruree.
Ireland, who little more than 20 years
ago was arrested and placed In prison for
the part that he took in the National

That Father Sheehy is an interesting
speaker is proven by the fact that long
after II o'clock his vast audience was
applauding him just heartily as they
were when the distinguished visitor was
introduced 10 them.
He is a typical Irish priest blunt and

anywhere where an Irishman could be

He then began his lecture, but as he
had depended upon a young man from

slides instead OF the management OF the

as they should have been, and were not
by any means satisfactory to Father
Sheehy.

In one OF the fastest games seen In
Providence the Brownies warmed the
Clinton team at Infantry hall. Saturday
night. and brought that team down ma
terially In the league race. 1t was
hustling contest from start TO finish and
though 1t was delayed frequently by the
breaking OF skates II was quite as good a
game as one could wish TO see.
Providence team played splenddly, Bone
and Canavan doing particularly fine work.
while Cunningham and Mallory were fr
the play In fine form. McGrath, though
not down fine enough TO be at his best.
and lacking experience, put up an ex-
cellent game. getting his man and show
ing all the earmarks OF coming player.
Farrell for Clinton was inclined to do
dirty work and Referee Klobedanz was
not inclined TO call fouls. even when Far
rell swung Cunningham of his feet and
fell on him. But Kiobedanz did not hesi-
tate 10 pensliZe McGrath when he got In

The score was nine to four and three

The present week will be q strenuous
one for the polo players. There will be
matinee games on Christmas day, Provi-
dence playing at Chelsea In the afternoon
and Chelsea in this city In the evening.
Saturday matinee games will be played
at Chelsea beginning next Saturday al
ternoon.
The schedule for the week gives six
games TO Clinton. seven games for Low
ell six games for Worcester, four games
for Lawrence FIVE games for Chelsea,
four games for Portland. six games for
Providence.
This schedule gives Clinton three games
at home and three away. Lowell four
games at home and three away Wor-
cester three games at home and three
away; Chelsea three games at home and
two away; Portland two games at home
and two away; Providence three games
at home and three away and Lawrence
but one home game and three away.
The schedule is n hard one, for seven
and six games in a week are too many IN
play the game well and 10 give the peo-
pie the satisfaction they expect and are
entitled 10. The Lawrence team, which
needs all the help 1t possibly can he
given, has but one home game and three
games away. When IL is considered that
the home team takes all OF the receipts
II does not appear that the Lawrence
team was getting the benefit OF the
schedule. though its only home game Is
on Christmas evening.
