HARD LOT OF IMMIGRANi -.
Mounted Patrolman Luby succeeded in
driving over the line into Cranston the
hardest looking lot OF immigrants that
ever came over the pike.
There was not less than T5 OF them,
and they were made up of all ages and
sexes
They stopped AZ a small bake shop on
Plainfield street and one OF the men pur-
chased large quantity of bread and this
they threw into the wagons and It quick
ly disappeared.
The members Of the crowd went for the
bread like so many gourmands. the small
er ones seemingly being OF no account.
So far as being cared for was concerned
the entire lot were dirty and ragged and
many OF the children wore abbreviated
clothes. They wanted 10 camp In an open
lot on Union avenue. near Laurel Hill
avenue. but Mr.. Luby would not have II
and they were forced over the line into
the town of Cranston.
BASE BALL DCINGs.
The Olneyville Base Ball association
met last evening and appointed Messrs.
J. ]. McCabe and r. A. Heffernan
special committee To attend To side issues.
and they are TO report at the next meet
ing.
IL was decided TO play two games with
the l. c. lis on the Fourth. the one I'm
the morning at 1890 O'Clock on the
Charles Field street grounds. when the
lineup Of the team will be as follows.
Kelly. C.; Wheeler. p; Gammons, lb: An
derson, Oh; Payne, 3b.; Ashton, s. s.. H.
Clarkson. r. T.; Herman. C. T.. and r.
Clarkson. l. T.. with Veno on the bench.
The game I'm the afternoon. which will
be on the grounds OF the club on Merino
fats. will be the same. other than Brady
or Griffin win pitch and f. Clarkson In
stead Of veno will be on the bench. the
latter taking the formers place I'm the
game.
on Saturday the team will play the
Pascoags and Manager Fox OF that club
was I'm the square yesterday and Informed
some OF the leaders Of the Olneyville
team. that the Pascoags were IN their
best form and had a league pitcher TO
help them out
Mr.. Fox wanted 20 make n wager. that
his team would win. but as near as can
be learned he found no one who really
cared 10 take him up. That the games
now scheduled will be hot ones there can
be no doubt. and had the present man
agement taken control at the start. ~ is
thought that the standing OF the club
would be much higher. for those who are
willing 90 furnish the funds are men
who enjoy the game, and want none but
the best, but at this late day, good play
ers are scarce and friendship more than
cash gets good ones
