H WESTERLY Sailboat—Body Found 'Way From Railroad Station To Dixon Square— Watch Hill Summer Residents Would Muffle Trolley Car Whistles Though still within the village class Westerly astde from the form of gov- ernment, is a mindature city in so far as go matters of enterprise and pub- lie convenience and interests. In addi- tion to its beautiful civic center, park and public buildings, now pians ve been made for a White Way to ex- tend from the new railway station to Dixon square. The matter has been under consideration for some time by Counclimen W CuUesé ;mll“ManrA fce W, Flynn e streel ght com- mittee and Manager Martin H. Spell- man of the Westerly Light and Power company. fte action has been finally taken and, just as soon as in- stallation is possible at least two flam- ing arc lamps will make bright the way from the railway station to the business center, This improvement is to be made without additional expense to the town when the service to be rendered is considered in comparison 'with the present service. Another city idea that Chief of Po- Mce Thomas E. Brown is to recom- mend for adoption by the town council or its committees, is a substitute for a traffio officer in Dixon square, that work now being done by the only po- lice officer on duty in the day time. He will suggest that a disc about 18 inhces in diameter, of wood, be placed in proper position in Dixon square to prevent the “cuiting of corners” by motorists and others, and to ha%e the idea backed up by a town ordihance. It would be cowppulsory for drivers to steer with mor8 care, for if they pass on the wrong side of the disc or leave tire marks on the same, they would be Hable to arrest and prosecution. There is a hitch over the transfer deed of the town of Westerly to the state of Rhode Island of the land oc- cupied by the new court house that ‘was buidlt in conjunction with the new town hall and, in consequence no legal metilement has been reached between town and state and there will not be until deed satisfactory to the state is aoccepted. When the state appropri- ated $50,000 towards the construction of the building it was with the agree- ment that the sum was to be devoted to the court house section which was to be owned by the state and that the town was to fornish the site free of charge to the state. It has divulged that a part of the area which leads to the proposed new ice station is on land owned by the esterly fire district and over which the town has no control. Therefore it is essential that this piece of land be transferred to the town before sat- 1sf: deed, can be given to the state. This little problem will = be #olved without friction, and as soon ag thig is done the state will accept the building and conform to all condi- tions. In the meantime the Httle matter of mettHng upon rental for the police sta- tion, which is in the state building, will be adjusied. Arthur N.

He was under the influence of liquor and will not be arraigned until this (Thursday) morn- ing. Although the police have known of other thefts committed by Barber, he was arrested for entering the res- idence of Mrs. Blizzbeth Ingham with the aid of a skeleton key and stealing a pocket flashlight. About eight months ago he stole from the same house a kit of turning tools and other articles, Subsequently he was detected in the act of stealing tools in the plan- ing department of the R. A. Sherman’s Sons company. He said he regretted his acts, promised to reform, and no formal complaint was made to the po- lice at the time. when the Hill, some rievance for It's a chilly day in Jul summer residents of Watc of them, cannot dig up a presentation to the Westerly town council or some member thereof. Now there is a protest against the occasion- al toot of warning of the trolley cars and the demand has been made that there be no more sounding of the warning whistle within the hearing of the select of Watch Hill. It is in- timated that if orders are not given by the operating company an appeal wil he taken to the town council. Just what authority that body has in the matter is a trifle problematical. The whistle is blown only when the car ig approaching a dangerous curve and is sounded as a precaution to safety. There is no indiseriminate tooting of the whistle just to hear it toot. It would be just as consistent for the town council to order silence of automobile horns, many of which emit louder and more disagreeable sounds than do the regulation warn- ing whistles of the trolley cars. At the last meeting of the town council, a property owner at the hall ques- tioned the right of the town authorities to remove an obstruction in the pub- lic highway without permission of the aforesaid summer resident. Charles Albert Berry, Jr, while reaching for his miniature sailboat, fell into the artificial lake in Wilcox park, Wednesday drowned. With his brother Harold, and another playmate, the boy was sailing his Httle boat by pushing it from the edge of the lake and heading it for the opposite side. The boat drift- ed down to the lower end of the lake where the water is seven feet deep, known as the deep hole and intended for the fish to locate when the lake is frozen over. In all the rest of the lake the water is shallow, not over fifteen inches in depth. As a protection for that end of the lake there is a thick hedge placed there to prevent such a fatality as occurred Wednesday. The Berry boy forced his way through this shrubbery and reached for the boat; he lost his balance and fell into the deep water. Two men seated near the farther end of the lake saw the boy in the water and sup- posed he was bathing in the lake in violation of rules. Just then' Frank Dewey happened along and was told that a boy had fallen overboard, but the child could not be seen. Mr. Dewey hailed Harry Elionsky, of New London, the long distance swimmer, who was near the comfort station in the park. Flionsky ran at top speed to the end of the lake, whipped off his shoes and made a dive in the muddy water in search of the boy. He was under wa- ter nearly a minute and came to the surface. He fmmediately went to the bottom again and recovered the boy. By this time Dr. Scanlpon had arrived and he summoned Dr. May. Both doc- tors and Elionsky werked for half an hour in the hope of resuscitating the child, but failed, as he was probabdly dead when recovered by Elionsky. He had been in the water about four min- utes. The father of the boy was notified and arrived at the lake soon after the body was recovered. As medical ex- aminer, Dr. Scanlon pronounced death due to accidental drowning and au- thorized the removal of the body. Local Laconice.

The fire wag started by belt frictien, causing sparks to ignite some inflam- mabie material in the shep. C, M, Bates, the general manrager, has ex- pressed siBeere appreciation eof the exw afternoon and was |. extinguishing the Heavy Truck Sipks Through Old-} Bridge. . The apparatus for oiling the streets | akout town proved. to be too heavy for the old wooden bridge over thé She-! tucket river on Railroad street, Wed- | nesday. The bridge did its best to sus- tain its heavy burden, but it was. other case where the spirit was willing ! but the flesh weak, and with sundry crashings and . creakings the timbers gave way and the heavy autetruek ! plunged part way teward the river but was held back by some of the tim- bers of the bridge miraculously fail- ing to give way. After censiderable work the great truek was gotten eut of the hele and off the bridge, but was sileat for the greater part of the day. A First Seleetman Raymond J. Jodoin, who by this time ought to be used to this work from experience, guickly had men at work patching un the hele. If something is not done, and done quickly there may be a repetition of what happened to the smaller bridge. WILLIMANTIG CAMP GROUND.
