They expect, however, that a meeting will he held in the near fu- ture to make it possible to collect the assessment at the ame time that the taxes on real estate are due. When the voters rejected the sew- er proposition they were advised that the committee which spent nearly two years investigating the matter had expended about $2,000, and the district of course is obligated to settle. At the time there was some [talk of levying a tax to cover this amount but it was finally decided to put the matter over until the grand list was completed. It was figured that in this way only could the voters act intelligently on.the question. Taxes on town property are due on April 1 and Collector Hemingway will soon ,begin arrangements for the dis- tribution of bil It is considered de- sirable that he include the tax for sewer plans on the regular bills and consequently something will have to be done in the near future if this idea is carried out. It expected that it a tax of about one mill to get district out of debt. Advocates of a sewer, system, while they have been quiet since their de- feat at the district meeting, are still hopeful that a way may be found to get the voters to favor the improve- ment. They do not claim to have any plans for bringing this about but they insist that the action of the meeting was but a temporary set- hack to them and somethidg is bound to develop before long, resulting in a change of sentiment.

A. Evaline and company has been assigned for argument in the su- preme court next Tuesday. The ac- tion was tried a few months age in the superior court and the decision was favorable to the defendants. The Evaline company had the con- tract laying gas mains through the streets of Plainville for the trolley people. Leaks in the joints were responsible for the death of a number of shade trees and the com- pany had to uncover all the pipes and spend considerable, money in making repair: The court ruled that the contract did not hold the Evaline company responsible as the sealing of the joints was done under the su- pervision of the trolley company. Attorney Noble E. Pierce, counsel for the plaintiffs, took an appeal to the supreme court. for Admonished By Court, After giving them a reprimand and some sound advice, Justice A. H. Condell this morning ordered the re- lease of Tony Albanese, Edward Mar- tin, Stephen Heslin and lLeroy Leon- ard, four New Britain young men who were locked up as vagrants early this morning. They were not put to plea, Grand Juror 8. S, Gwillim and Jus- tice Condell concurring in the opin- ion that their’ cases should be dis- missed. The quartet was found on the street by Patrolman Philip Marino about 12:30 this morning. They were un- able to get back to New Britain and the officer decided to put them in the lockup for tae night. The young men came here late in the evening, their intention being to steal a ride on a freight train to New | Haven. They put of the waiting room in the passenger station midnight and Officer Marino found them later, Taey claimed that they had been out of work for some time and were going to New Haven in search of em- rloyment. Investigation showed thalt there is nothing particularly bad about their records in their home city and the local authorities were not anxious to have the town pay the ex- pense of bringing them up for a hear- ing.
