A PIPPFN OF A TEAM
Promised by Albert Forni, Who is to Provide Putnam's Summer Baseball.

If Putnam thinks that this city isn't going to have real live, fast travel ing baseball team this season, it is happily mistaken. Landlord Albert Forni of the City hotel says that he is going to give this city a pippin of a team and a ground to play on that will be equal to any in this section of the state.
 Men were at work on the new field, off Woodstock avenue, Monday, and they will soon have it in shape for use. MT. Forni says that there will be accommodations for 5000 people, which will be ample for the attend ance that will be turned out, judging by the best that has ever been done here before.
 MT. Forni is not ready to announce the makeup of his team, but he gives positivt assurance that it will be as fast or faster than any team that has ever worn a Putnam uniform, so it should be some team. He will have it organized and in playing shape during the present month, giving the fans here a long season of their fa- vorite pastime.
 Fast teams are to be scheduled to appear against Putnam, with Daniel son, Webster and Southbridge putting fine teams on the field and consid- ering the friendly rivalry that exists between the towns there should be some real baseball excitement here this summer.
