TED FOR BAND CONGERTS Some Opposition Developed at Special City Meeting and ‘Ballot Resulted in 58 For to 31 Against—Matter of Making Appropriations Required Considerable Explana- tion, but All were Passed i Not without some discussion and |done. This money, Mr. Gebrath saiq, ension - was $300 voted for band |is needed especial for the-work on sidewalks. The sidewalk owners have been notified to D the walks, X h improvements are judged by Sept. 1 and if the re- eoncerts in Norwich this summer the special city meeting attended about 95 people in city hall Tues evening and there was considerab questioning and expianation before the three other appropriations in the call { at | by | ity will do the work and get the ‘wers passed as a unit. i back later from the property Mayor Murphy called the meefing | The appropriations will en- to order at 8.02 o'clock and Clerk Ste- | tail no addition to the tax rate and Mr. Gebrath’s motion to vote for the three on one ballot was seconded by Counsel Fanning. “Outside Work” Explained. Mr. Crooks made the inquiry if Judge Thayer's sidewalk on Franklin square had been ordered repaired by the stip- ulated date and ichard W. Tobin | wished to know what was meant by { the term .“outside work.” It was ex- plained that while ‘the city is not in the habit of doing work for individ- uals yet in certain cases, as in the set. ting of a curb stone, one or two men would be sent for the job, and the city would be repaid later by the property owner. John Reilly also asked a ques- tion or two. Mr. Fanning said that it was merelys a matter of bookkeeping and that it is important that all of a piece of work, as in Sachem street, where the city built the sides of the road and the trolley company was to look out for the center, within its tracks and for two feet on each side, | should be carried on at once. - Alder- man William C. McLaughliz said that an outside company must “ pay its money directly to the city, .and not to any of the subordinate departments. and this accounts for the necessity of making these appropriations. Only Four Against Appropriations. phen D. Moore read the call. A peti- tion for band concerts signed by James B. Shannon and 48 others was read by Clerk Moore. Resolution by Judge Ayling. Judge Nelson J. Ayling offered a res- olution appropriating a sum not ex ceeding $300 for band music and in so doing suggested that there had been a misunderstanding at the last city meeting and that the majority felt that a city of the size of Norwich should have some such form of enter--| tainment. Such ‘amusement has not been provided in the past without con- troversy, but other cities have such en- tertainment and the benefits derived therefrom are large compared to the cost. Corporation Counsel J. T. Fan- ning moved that voting by ballot be carried out and in seconding this mo- tion, Archibald S, Spaulding took the ocpportunity to state that the appro- priation meant no additional taxation. Parsonally he had no interest in the issue, but in his heart evervone knows that the object {8 a worthy one and that $300 is very cheap in proportion to the benefits. Some people would have n6 other chance to hear a band. Mr. Spaulding narrated his experience of getting into Hartford at 9 o'clock at night, recently, and of trying to find a friend among the thousands who Mr. Crooks came back with the were out listening to the strains of one | gtytement that the money for outside of the Hartford bands. Spending money | work never returns to the pocket of for band concerts is a wise thing. he ended, and received hearty applause. Opposition to Concerts. Samuel ‘Crooks moved that the res- olution of Judge Ayiing be laid on the table. Mayor Murphy: put the ques tion. There was a sprinkling of ay followed by a deep chorus of nos S. Spaulding and Cornelius J. Do the taxpayer. The $300 voted for band concerts he felt would make a big change at the municinal wharf and said-that there are a whole lot of jobs that should have been done that are indefinite postponed Corporation Counsel Fanning explained again. and i ons create no nes were appointed the tellers for the bal- nal tpatiin g e sldam s loting and at 8.24 the fate of band - 2 “‘x"")y__’ i }{‘( o Ehaehrcis was ostided..

John B. Stanton of this city is chairman of the committee which has for its aim the keeping of the beach in spick and span condition and the svstematic removal of garbage, undertaken this year for the first time, is one of the big improvements con- ummated. Another is the introduction jof lights, fourteen kerosene burners | having been placed along the streets at j the most advantageous spots. Still an- other change for the better that has been made is the layving of 300 feet of board walk and this footage is to be added to as the means of the asso- ciation allow. In charge of the entertainments that add much enjoyment to life at the | beach John Vaughn of Norwicl and Chairman Vaughn and his commit- | tee have been particularly busy and ’successrul of late. On Saturday an ice cream and-food sale was given in dancing in the evening, and the pro- ceeds were over $35, most of which | will be devoted to furthering the work of the imyprovement association.

Among the Norwich people who are occupying cottages at the *h are B. P. Bishop and family, J. E. Vaughn and family, Fred C. Crowell and family and J. B.
