A party Of men who had imbibed too
freely OF the contents OF the cup that
cheers got into an argument with the
conductor regarding the payment of their
fares and proceeded to show how repre-
hesnble they could aot when under the
influence of intoxicants.
They used language which would make
n summer girl from the Camp White
dance hall blush, until at last the conduc-
tor decided that patience was no longer
a virtue. and summarily elected two OF
the men from the car.
HEAVY TRAVEL.
The fact that yesterday was a holiday
I'm Massachusetts, was easily discernible
from the heavy travel on the Fall River
trains. There were extra cars on every
train and several extra trains were run
to relieve the pressure OF traffic.
The running time OF the Consolidated
on this line was seriously deranged,
making trains on the road late through
out almost the entire day.
