~ SEWERAGE SYSTEM FOR WESTERLY Recommended by Board of Trade Committee on Municipal | Improvements—Project to be Further lnventignted—? Walter Johnson Badly Gashed—Pawcatuck Club Mem- | bers Not Likely to Favor License For "Town of Stoning- ton. i | ounty, Judge Baker and a jury haye been engaged several days in the tri% of the case of Willlam P. Buffum and others against Henry R. Girard, an action in trespass. One of the . questions involved is the determination of ‘the southerly line of the town oi Exeter, as the deeds of the lot owned by Mr. Girard make the southerly bound._the boundary line between Exe- ter and South Kingston. Th. town of Exeter was divided from North King- ston In 1742, and in 1757 Robert Haz- ard of South Kingston and John Rey- nolds, Jr., of Exeter were a commis- gion of the general assembly to estab- gnh a line between the two towns. ince then there has been no survey of thgi'wn‘ltnes. . The! plaintiffs claim a small piece of their land, 100;)' 120 feet in area, was cut over and 19 trees cut, ani ‘they also charge that Girard In cut- - ting off this lot carted the lumber over stheir and caused damage. The defendant claims he has not cut ‘over any of Buffum’s land, and de- .elares he purchased to an old wall, ‘which he says s the boundary line. ‘Amos E, Whitford, who sold the prop- erty to Girard, made the same state- ment and said that the wall was ted out to him as the line by the from whom he purchased. Con- siderable testimony was given as to the alleged damage and two sur- veyors gave testimony. The plaintiffs seek to recover under the law which grants three times the actual damage for cutting and de- stroying the wood upon the land ot ther. case of Orville G. Barber against the Watch Hill fire district in regard to the removal of a.building in Bay #treet wag continued. : . A motion was entered for 4 new trial of the case of Chief of Police Thomas 'E. Brown against Charles C, Taft of the, New Park hotel, in which the ‘jury ' found the defendant guilty of keeping Hauor for sale contrary to law. The case of John G. Clark, adminis- trator, against Attmore Robinson, which has been on the docket since March ‘16, 1885, was discontinued. The case had to do with the settlement of the estate of Jonathan M.

President Alberti R. Stillman pre- sided at the meeting and there was a large attendarce. Under suspension of the rules, D. O. Earle and W. W. Bromley were admitted to membership. Dr. John F. Champlin, chairman »¢ the committee on manufactures, re- ported that many inquiries in regard to inducements for location were re- ceived from many prospective indus- tries, and those worthy were receiving proper consideration and investigation Secretary Samuel H. Davis and Clif- ford W. Campbell, delegates to the in- ternational congress of chambers o’ commerce and kindred organizations, made interesting and lengthy reports of the proceedings. Just prior to adjournment there was a general discussion as to the desira- bility of paving Broad street, but no action was taken. . The brave soldier boys of an imag- inary invading army will e from Fort Mansfield along the line of the Pawcatuck river and cross the bridge into Connecticut this (Thursday) morning. They will be in regular marching /order, with the «xicinity of Stony brook as destination, where it is planned to battle with some of their comrades who are to act as an army of defense. There will be 12 comnani¢s of coast artillery manoeuvring as in- fantrymen in the three days of war- like exercises, The invading force is composed of eight companies, and four companies will form the defense, Walter Johnson, employed in the Broadfoot bakery, Canal street, re- ceived a painful injury while attempt- ing to unlock the door of the bakery early Wednesday morning. He adjust- ed the key, but it did not work in the lock readily, and in forcing the key to turn his hand slipped and went through a pane of glass in the door. A gash four inches long was cut in his left hand and the tendon of his index finger severed. He went to the office of Dr. John L. May, just across the street. where he received medical nd surgical treatment. The tendons were connected so that the index finger could be controlled and then several stitches were taken to close the wound in the hand. By ‘he exercise of care for a time the ten- dons may be strengthened sufficient to nerform the customary part of the hu- man machinery, but should they “reak and the finger drop and become n1seless, an operation extending back to the wrist will be necessary. The fact that the vote on liquer ‘icense has been injected into the elec- tion in the town of Stonington will -esult in the polling of a large vote, 'nd the license question has really hecome the chief factor in the elec- “ion. It has been the rule on thic ~uestion, as goes Paivcatuck, so goes ‘he rest of the town of Stonington. Roth sides have shown unusual activ- **y and the license advocates clalm hat a careful canvass shows that a najority of the voters are not opposed 7 the use of intoxicating drinks, but nhat does not signifv that they will ote in favor of license. There are a number of clubs in the town under different names, but they where ' the members can take thelr friends and buy as many drinks of that which intoxicates as their desire or cash warrants. It is therefcre prob- able that these club members will not vote in favor of license in order to protect their club interests, This class of voters will not openly fuse with the prohibitionists, but will be with them in the battle against license. Local Laconics. The public evenine school will apen next Tuesday evening. The repablicans of Westerly will hold their caucus this evening. The republican town committee has decid=d to make no recommendation of candidates to the caucus. Frarklin Smith of Westerly and Harold T. Eaton of Stonington, mem- bers of the freshman class at Brown university, are rooming together at No. 17 University hall.

Arthur Fenelon has been elected to captain the football team of the West- erly High school that is now in active practice. The first game will be with the East Greenwich academy eleven. Frederick N. Robinson, for seven years in the employ of the Westerly Automatic Telephone company, has re- signed, to take effect Nov. 1. He goes to the Southern New England Tele- phone company. Four army wagons drawn by mules arrived in Westerly at 4.15 Wednesday afternoon, going direct to Fort Mans- fleld. They will be a part of the army train used in the attack upon Stony Brook today (Thursday). The comfort station in Wilcox park is to be heated by a gas and water system and independent . from any other. The plan to heat from the Co- lonjal clubhouse beilers has been aban- doned as being inadequate. Willlam W. Luyster and family of New York have moved Into a tenement In Grove street. Mr. Luyster is su- pervisor of consiruction for the Inter- urban Construction company that has contract for the new postoffice in Westerly. Mr; and Mrs, Patrick L. Shea, dau ter and son &nd Thomas L.

A switch engine of the New York, New Haven and 'Hartford rallroad left the rails near the Sweeney quarry, just at the point of the crossing of the Ashaway and Westerly trollev road In consequence, trolley traffic’'was de- layed while the locomotive was being placed back on the ralie.
