SPECIAL MEETING.
The ‘Hose Purchase Question Will‘
be Acted Upon‘Directlyby the
L ', C'o'urt of. Burgesses. .
This morning Warden Keeler issued
a call for-a special meeting to-night of
the Court of Burgesses. The notifica-
tion is-worded as follows : “ You are
hereby notified and warned that a spe—
cial Burgess meeting will be held at the
borough court room on Monday, the
11th day of May, 1891, at 7.30 p. m., for
the purpose of appointing a committee
to purchase 3,000 feet of hose for the
use of the fire department of this city.”
This call seems to be in line with the
opinion of Borough Attorney Warner,
that the borough meeting exceeded its
powers in appointing a committee to
purchase the much-needed hose.
0'
BASE BALL.
The Bridgeports came over on Satur-
day and met the Gorhams on the Bax-
ter grounds in what-proved to be the .
best mufling match of the season. The
Gorhams played their usual good game,
but the Bridgeports while they had a
first class pitcher in Beers, gave him
the poorest kind of support, the short
stop and right fielder being especially
poor, the latter making it a point to
drop every ball that came withinfhis
reach. The Gorhams succeeded in
making 14 runs 011‘ of six hits, while the
Bridgeports could get but 5 Off the
same number. It is hoped that the
Bridgeports will secure a good team
and give the GOrhams another trial, as
the excellent pitching of Beers demon-
strated the fact that with good support
behind him the Gorhams would have
to play the game Of their life to defeat
them. The following is the score by
innings.
Gorham 6 2 0 1 4 0 1 0—14
Bridgeport O 0 1 2 2 O 0 0— 5

'Dastardly Assault.
Yesterday afternoon Officer Gormley
arrested an Italian named Pasquale
Christiano, on the charge Of having at-
tempted to criminally assault the nine
years old daughter Of James Paulino,
(Theresa by name,) with whom he
boarded, at the Rocks House, on the
Rocks road. This morning the accused
was examined before Justice Austin,
Attorney Walsh prosecuting, and
George Queen acting as interpreter.
The charges were two in number, sim-
ple assault and assault with intent to
ravish. The story as told by the little
girl is unfit for publication, but proba-
ble cause was found to justify binding
the accused over to the Superior Court.
