to Her Husband—Julius Slavery. “Let there be more light,” was the of the Westerly town councll and_was proclaimed by Frederick C. Buffumi, Tepresenting the municipal improve- ment committee of the Westerly Board of Trade. Mr. Buffum said there was lack of artificial light opposite the railway station, which the town desig- nated as the trolley terminal, and that the public would be better accommo- dated if more light was furnished. Mr. Buffum said he had made personal nspection and was satisfied that light was needed there. He had consulted with Manager Speilman, who says that a clusier light would serve the purpose and that the cost to the town would oe only 354 a year. Some members uf the council stated seriously that the trolley company should furnish street lights for that dark section. The mat- ter was referred to the street light committee and special committee on street railway: B The council was asked to pay a bill for dredging the Fawcatuck river at a point near the property of J. Frank Segar in Main street. A brook empties into the river and carries with it a lot of surface water and rubbish which accumu.ates and fills in the river at the outlet of the brook, making occa- sional dredging necessary in order tn not interfere with the Segar wharf privileges. Six years ago the towa council voted to have this dredging done and the expense was $70. It now seems that this work has been ac- complished by direct orders of Mr. Segar and without the authority of the town council or any committee thereof and the bill presented by Mr. Segar is for $128.03. It was the general opinion of the councilmen that the work was not of- ficially authorized, but probably ougit to be paid for by the town, based on precedent established after careful in- vestigation and consideration. The payment of the bill was deferred and the matter referred to the highway committee and town solicitor. Mary G. Knight and her husband, Robert Knight, have brought suits damages against the town, through At- torney Albert B. Crafts, to recover a total of $8,000 for damages alleged to be due to a defective sidewalk near the Clark store at the corner of Broad and Main streets. Mrs. Knight -sues for $4,000 for alleged injuries, stating that the heel of her shoe caught in a de- pression in the walk, that she was thrown on her hands and knees, which resuited in rupture of the ligaments of her knees and other injuries which ut- terly incapacitated her. Mr. Knight's suit.is also for the sum of $4,000 for the loss of the services of his wife After the readin of the formal notice in the suit, the matter was referred to Town Solicitor Harry B, Agard. A communication was received from Mrs, Frances C. Griscom in which she cffered to the town of Westerly a me- morial to her husband, under certain conditions. Mrs. Griscom states that the noted sculptor, Miss Enid Yendell, had made for her a statue in bronze of a I size kneeling Indian which she proposed placing upon the fountain now in course of construction near WESTERLY WANTS MORE Town Council Hears Complaints of Inadequate Service— Suit of $8,000 Results From Alleged Defective Walk— Mrs. Clement C.

The communication stated conditions upon which a change in location may be made to accommodate an increase in traffic and also pre- scribes the section of Watch Hill in which the statue must remain. The communication was referred to the highway committee and town solicitor. erbert P. Clark m\- pointed su- ntendent of the building of chil s and olacing of stoves and stove- | pipes by the town council in compli- | ance with the law that requires the appointment of such an officer. The selection was brought about in this way: At the regular October meeting of the council Frederick C. Buffum, in behalf of the fire prevention commit- tee of the Westerly Board of Trade, asked for the passage of an ordinance concerning the building of chimneys and the subject matter was referred to Town Solicitor Agard for report ft Monday’s session. Mr. Agard said he did not think it advisable for the town to have that special ordinance, but f the Board of Trade wanted such or- dinance that organization might get a special act through the next session of the general assembly- Mr. Agard said that in the meantime the council could under existing law appoint a su- perintendent of building of chimneys and placing of stoves and stovepipes. On motion of Councilman Flynn, Mr. Clark was unanimously elected. There were four arrests for intoxi- cation in Westerly during October and one each for revelling, sturdy beggar and assault, according to the official report of Thomas E. Brown, chief of police, to the town council. Health Officer Lewis Stanton reported two cases of scarlet fever during October and that quarantine would be raiscd in a few days. Ellery Barber’s report as overseer of the poor showed expen- ditures of $246.83 during the month. Milk Inspector John L. Breen reported that he had “examined the milk of 25 milkmen during the month and found it to be satisfactory.” The several re- ports were approved and ordered filed. ‘When the council adjourned it was 1o meet again next Wednesday evening as a returning board for Tuesday's election. Julius Heilner, president of a corset com=-any in New York, and who mar- ried a Westerly young woman, has | been arrested by special agerts on a federal indictment found in_ Chicaga accusing him_of violating the white slave law.
