On morning a landing party un-| command of Emnsign Clark of the battleship Rhode Island landed at Pleasant View to patrol the beach in of missing torpedoes and mines.

William Benson, was presented in the superior court for Washington county, Tuesday, to answer to the charge of being a lewd and wanton ‘person. He changed his plea of not gullty to guilty and Judge Barber sentericed him to six months in the Providence County jail. About a month ago Benson was summoned into the Third District court as a witness in the Burdick case and was subse- quently arrested. In this court he pleaded not guilty, but after hearing the evidence, Judge Willlams found Benson guilty and sentenced him to two years in the state work house. Benson took an nppeal to the superior court and bejng unable to furnish a satisfactory bond was taken "to' jail to await the opeping of the present #ession of the lugerlm- court, The usual peacy and quietness of Pawcatuck has been ortur:‘:ld dur- to give reassurance e village.

Monday night the officer received in- formation that a suspicious character perhaps Peeping Tom, was hiding in the bushes off Chace street. He im- mediately made an' investigation and ‘found & small shack hidden from view by bushes and trees. In this shack the officer found a man, a stranger in these parts, who says he is a fish- of | erman and clam digger, and has made his home in the shack all summer. Patrolman Keegan questioned him closely but did not receive information sufficient to even arrest his as a sus- picious character, or he had not evi- dence sufficient to present him for prosecution. The fellow was warn- ed away and impressed that if he did net make prompt compliance with the warning, he would be arresteq and prosecuted. Several residents of Paw- catuck have volunteered to aid the of- ficer in putting an end to this disturb- ing element in the village, Howard E. Gavitt, unless he obtains bail, will remain in the Providence County jail, until the November term of the superior court for Washington county. Gavitt was formerly agent for the Adame Express company at Nar- ragansett Pier and is under indict- ment for embezzlement from the com- pany. He expects trial at the present session of the court being held at Kingston, but Attorney Olney, who up to Tuesday had been Gavitt'’s coun- sel‘withdrew from the case. Attorney Genera] Phillips consented to have the case go over to the November term in order that the defendant might have opportunity to secure new counsel. The recent sale of a building lot at Pleasant View by Richard J. Rooney to Louise M. Pendleton and Delia A. ‘Wheeler of North Stonington gives an ldea of the increase in valuation of beach lots at that growing shore re- sort. Mr. Rooney was among the ploneers who bought lots at Pleasant View In 1884, buyingj but one lot with five-cent pleces h Rad saved, and appropriately nami the Nickel lot. He paid $50 for the lot and sold it for $700. ~This shows an increase in valu- ation_for the period of 18 years of 1,400®her cent., or 77 3-4 per cent. a year, .or-an average of $38.88 a year.
