Wedding at Arctic Centre.
leaky HydTahts Repaired.

The evening schools In Warwick opened
last evening at the several school houses
at 7:so and the attendance In each In
stance was Satisfactory. Unfortunately the
opening night was stormy and probably
for that reason the attendance was some
what smaller thai. sisual. but II has been
noticed In the past that the attendance
increases after the first night. and for
that reason II Is quite probable that tho
attendance tonight will be much larger
than last evening At Phenix one room
was well filled and the corps OF teachers
which have been hired were at once kept
busy. At Crompton. Arctic, Riverpoint,
Natick and Pontiac the schools were
equally successful.

Selects Bowling Team.

Last night marked the first contest OF
the season at COTS alleys and the event
was one which will not soon be forgotten
In local bowling circles. The match was
between Mclaughlin. who was In the
Riverside state league team last year and
will probably fll the same position next
year and the same unknown who gave
him so many exciting rubs last year.
The unknown had a handicap or ten
pins given him by Mclaughlin and In the
first string the ten pins came in very
handy as be would have been beaten by
three pins without them. The second
string was captured by Mclaughlin,
who made lucky strike that, coupled
with fall on the part OF his opponent.
just pulled him through.
In the last string the unknown pulled
himself together and did some good work.
although he rolled two or three boxes
that were rather ragged. He more than
made up for these, however by making
some good spares. He managed TO bring
home three OF these. one OF which was a
corker. On the first ball ne picked the
end pin off the left hand side and with
the second. which was a slight curve he
got the other nine. The summary was as
follows:

The food OF last week was bad one
but would have been much worse had
the ice which was held back by the
Union Pacific tracks, rushed into the
low bottom land in the south part OF
town. In the food Of March 10. 1893,
great quantities OF ice came down, killing
chickens, hogs and small animals unable
to withstand the ice, and cutting down
fences and small buildings with the
mighty force. Last Monday much OF
the ice was landed on the south Of tho
river in the Barnum pasture, although
there was left drifts in many low places
Ill through the valley.
Many people Who witnessed the carry
ing OF their foundations the houses of
Nm. BraRgold were astonished at the
bravery manifested by that lady.
Trainmen reported that ono large cake
OF ice came down tho river at ono time,
tearing away tho rip-rapping With one
sweep without 60 much as turning it
from its course.
People who live in the south part Of
town have built their houses on firm
foundations and there are very few who
sre disooncerted ut the approach OF high
