Contractor Langfeld, who has the paving ‘job, was dissafisfied with the way thipgs were goin told his men to quit for ¢he day. His laborers are entivel; $eparate from those doing the tradk work. Lange- feld was about peudy. to mix grouting for the founda.ion, but upon attempt- g o mix <he cement and sand to the: requiged consistency, found that it would not set it should.

Total, $75,107.92. .|, The report uya‘ ‘While certain items of = extraordinary ~expenditure | appear in the various departments of this report, causing the increased to- tal amount of orders drawn to $78,- 107.92—we beg to call particular at- ‘| tention to the items on state roads, schools, school property and cemeter- ies, in' which departments expendi- tures have been voted by the citizens of the town in town meetings, and an aggregate of #hese items, namely, $16,666.67 for new model sciool build- ing, $8,285 state road contract, $5,000 for' Potter farm for cemetery, and $10,000 for O'Loughlin property for high school ,amounts to $39,951.67, which deducted from our total amount of orders, $78.107.92, leaves the sum of $38,156.25 for current expenses, which sum is a slight decrease from last year. To mecet these extra expenses, it became necessary to borrow money in excess of the usual sum, causing the item of borrowed money to be some- what in excess of the usual amount borrowed for current expenses. The total expense for highways, ex- clusive of roads known as state roads, as stated in our summary, $6,366.22, shows an increase of less than $500 over this same item of expense. for the year 1908. In this department we found work that has long required at- tention, such as removing boulders, re- placing culverts and fences, besides the actual work on the hignway. that has increased tye total expense of this item. We feel confident that the out- lay has improved the appearance and travel of our town to such an extent that ‘a_slight increase is, in the end, a saving, Out of this item, as usual, the highway appropriation of $2.600 to the city of Willimantic, and of $300 to the borough of Windham has been made. State Roads—This_item, as shown in the summary, as $14.189.61, is mis- Jeading owing 1o the established cus- tom that all orders for payment of contract work done for the state are {drawn through the selectmen. When we assumed office in October, 1908, a state Yoad was building between the city line and North Windham, under the supervision of the state highway commissioner, the contract price for which was about half paid. From October 1, 1908, the present board was called upon by the highway commis- sioner to draw orders.to A. Vito, the contractor, for the payment of $8.- 285—the sums having been previously advanced by the state treasurer. This did not increase our actual expense, although it does increase our total —being simply -a method pursued by the highway commissioner's depart- ment. In June of the present year we wi called upon to pay the state the town's share of the completed road contract, which amounted to $4,071.45. To this last mentioned item should be added the expense of paving and nmew fenc- ing along -this road, amounting to 3530, the building of retaining walls and steps for abutting property own- ers claiming damages, amounting to $750, together with necessary repairs on_other sections of state roads. The actual expense for state roads will be found to be $5,904.61. Schools and School Property—The item of $27. 1 in 1909 against the sum of $403.10 in 1908 is a vast differ- ence, but readily explained by two ex- penditures, namely, the payment on October 16, 1908, by the town to the state of Connecsicut for one-third of the cost of the new model school bujlding on Windham street, of $16,- 666.67, and the payment of $10,000 September 11, 1909, for the O'Lough- lin property for high school purposes, ‘ogether h the accumulated ex- penses incident on town meetings re- garding this site and of the high school building committee. Cemeteries—Important improvements and_additions to two of our cemeter- jes have been made this year, which has necessarily increased this depart- ment considerably in excess of many years. Bridges—While the item for bridges —$1,949.89—I_an increase of $1,294.85 over that of 1908 we feel justified in stating that $§99.88 of this item is for a céntra¢t with the Berlin Construc- tiori company, made' by our predeces- sors in office, for the overhanging sidewalk on Bridge street. Outside Poor—The net expense of outside poor during the fiscal vear varies but slightly from that of pre- vious years. While we have assisted more families than common, yet the relief has to be given when necessary. Insane and Idiotic—The town of Windham is supporting thirty-two pa- tignts in the Connecticut hospitals for the insane, fourteen committed dur- ing this fiscal year, which accounts for the Jarge increase of expense in this department. The town has four patients at the sehool for imbeciles at Lakeville. Almshouse—In the fall of 1908 we 2ppointed Mr.'and Mrs. Henry Cham- berlin as keeper and matron of the altmshouse, and their management of fhe affairs of this institution has been satisfactory in every way. Deducting from the total alms- hpuse expense, as stated in our sum- 'y the amount of dis- pursements to outside poor, together With board of paupers paid. use of horse for cemetery, and other reim- Jitirsements, aggregating $1.116.20, the ‘net expense of the almshouse for the chrrent year ls $5,162.32, a decrease of $448.17 from last y FUNERAL. % Mrs. Charle The funeral of Mrs. Charles O. Ford Fras held from her late home Friday afternoon at 2 o'clock and was well attended. Rev. Louis M. Flocken, pas- tor of the Methodist Episcopal church, officiated. The bearers e four nephews of the deceased, Willlam, Ed- ward, Iverett and _Dwight Ledoyt. Burial was in the Willimantic ceme- tery. Funera] Director H. N, Fenn was in charge. POLICE COURT. Dennis O'Donnell Fined $5 and Costs. In police court Friday morning Dennis O'Donnell was charged with intoxica- tion and résistance. The accused with a number of other men creating a rumpus in a Main street saloon Thurs- day and Officer Grady was called in to send them home. They all took the opportunity with the exception of O'Donnell and he commenced to abus the officér and when placed under a rest endeavored to resist and contin- ued all the' way to the station house. He pleaded guilty to both charges and Judge William A, Arnold imposed a fine of $5 and costs on each charg The total amounted to $20.60. O'Do nell ‘madle ‘arrangements 10 pay the ne.

REAL HOT PEPPERS. Howard Hill Players Look Like Rubes but Play Like Professionals. Over the Rhode Island line in the town of Foster there is a ball team that is about to close a very success- ful season, Thi Howard Hills, and the thing: have done to some of the teams with a record that have come out to their rocky home country to trim them dur- ing the summer has been the surprise and pleasure of those who have seen the games. They play ball Sunday over in that country and that fact has been the means of drawing large crowds to see the contests. Patrons come out from Providence and Danielson and from all points on the trolley line between these two places. The Howard Hills were at first regarded as a rube com- bination, but after they had trimmed about every team in the fast Provi- dence Inter-City league and put it all over some of the Eastern Connecticut league teams their stock began to climb, and now they are loeked upon as real hot peppers. They could put up a mighty good ball game two years ago when they used to play the game in overalls and they have been getting better ever since. They play in uniform now. There is something ' about them that makes them look easy to the team that comes out to Foster for the first time, put they are about the hardest nuts crack that a fast amateur team ever bumped against. Those In- ter-City fellows accuse them of train- ing on mowing machines and cutting stone in the nearby quarry and living on a hard cider diet, but when the games are over the Howards usually have the big end of the score. Among tie teams from this section that have taken a trimming at their hands are the Wauregan, Dayville and Andem team of the Eastern Connecti- cut league and several picked nines made up of league players. Jewett City sent a team down to Foster last Sunday_and they managed to clean up the Howards and sustain the pres- tige of this part of the state. Franklin and Berthiaume of the Dayville league team have been play- ing with the Howards during the lat- ter nart of this season, as some of the regular Howards were awa. PUTNAM Intemperance Breaks Up Eastford Home—Defence Strengthens Case in Ross Will Appeal Trial—Stolen Bank Book Fougd on Track. There was no short calendar busi- ness at Friday morning’s session of the superior court, as is usual on that day.
