DOES THEM AX INJUSTICE.

abroad that the Howard Davlcs who
answered "No" when volunteers were
tailed for front Company F at Mt.

Dnvles. This Is, however, not the fact,
the Da vies who said "No" resides on
1'V 11011 street, but Is a mprrled man,
and It was this that compelled him to
forego the trip to the front.
The other Howard Is a member of
Company C and answered "Yes."

business pertaining to their annual pic
nic at Central Park garden, June 22,

wns decided at last evening's session to
have a contest for a ring between a
North End lady nnd one from this side.

money. Three members were initiated

MINOOKA.
From present appearances the out
look for bae ball the coming season
Is somewhat discouraging, as the mem
bers of the team have openly declared
that they will not furnish amusement
for one or two thousand people with
out some material aid. For the past
few years the players have experienc
ed some dltliculty In supplying balls
nnd other contingencies and the spec
tators who usually howl when games
are arranged for other places have
flatly refused to contribute a small
share to support the club. Conse
quently the Mlnookn cluh will amuse
tho patrons of other towns the com
ing summer.
The lepresentntlve team of thlstovvn
and the AVnllle AVahs, of Providence,
will try conclusion on the former's
grounds tomorrow afternoon.
