PAW TUxET.

The invitation which the Volunteer FIRE
company received, TO attend the State
league muster at Woonsocket Labor
Day. was not accepted at the meeting,
last night, to the regret OF a number OF
members who had hoped to have been
with the Fire King, for a try for all
the prizes that day.
There were number or reasons why
the invitation was declined and chief
among them were the apathy OF large
part of the pumping force or the com
pany. and the fact that some of the
workers were required TO be at their
usual employment along shore on that
date.
The Woonsocket muster did not arouse
any great enthusiasm at any time with
the local company, most OF whom are
planning TO go TO Massachusetts mus
ter later in the season
The invitation TO attend the muster at
Taunton, during fair week was con-
sidered, and declined with thanks.
