Selectmen Won't Take Responsibility of Leasing Yeoman's Hall for Dances —Town Meeting Ditto. At the town meeting held in Co- lumbia Monday afternoon, there was an animated discussion over the pro- position to allow the younger people of the town to hire Yeoman's hall for the purpose of socials and dancing. The selectmen had not desired to take the responsibility of so doing, and put it up to the meeting in the cail. On Monday the meeting recipricated, tak- ing no action on the subject other than to leave the matter to the discretion of the selectmen. A twelve mill tax was laid by the meeting on the taxable property of the town. Last year the tax was seven- teen mills, but since that time there has been a revaluation, and it is ex- pected that the present tax will raise as much revenue as did last year's. No_ action was taken in regard to installing a new heater in the town hall, but it was voted to purchase a new safe for the use of the town clerk. This ‘disposed of the various clauses in the warning. PHYSICIANS’ BILLS FOR CARE OF POOR Amounted to $608 for ruary. Month of Feb- The physicians’ bills for the care of the town poor put in to the board of selectmen for the month of February amounted to more than the entire year's salary of the newly appointed town physician, who is to do the same work for the town at $50 a month, be- ginning March 1st. The total of the bills put in to the town was in the neighborhood of $608 for the shortest month of the year. The total paid in 1914 was approxi- mately $230. Of course, this month’s bills were swelled some above normal by the fact tnat all bills had to be put in up to date, to clean up accounts, but nevertheless the selectmen have reason to feel that they have done a fine stroke of business for the town in getting the work done for the sum of $600. H. S. MOULTON APPOINTED WATER SUPERINTENDENT At Monthly Meeting of the Board of Aldermen. The regular monthly meeting of the board of aldermen was held in the council chamber Monday evening with everyone present except Alderman Comins. In accordance with expectations as heard on_the streets Monday, the board ended all discussion over the waterworks superintendent by re- electing Henderson S. Moulton to that position. After the adoption of the minutes of the previous meeting, Mayor Dunn introduced Robert H. Fenton, who called the attention 6f the board to conditions at the corner of Summit and Church streets, where he claimed that by erosion and other causes the sup- port furnished his land by a four-foot strip owned by the city was giving wav and he asked for some action in regard to it. He said he could put in no walk there, as the walk would naturally come on the strip owned by the city. Mr. Fenton was then allowed to with- Araw after answering severai questions put to him by menibers of the board. Police Report. The report of Chief of Police E. H.

A resolution was passed authorizing the fire department commitiee to at- tach the 100 feet of hose now in the pumping station to the hydrant on the premises, to paint the hydrant and erect a suitable covering to protect it from the weather. The treasurer was authorized ta pay at such times as he saw fit such amounts as he saw fit on the $6,000 note of the water department held by the Willimantic Trust company. The clerk was empowered to have 200 copies of the regular yearly pamphlet containing the city officials, committees, etc. The mayor was authorized to bor- row $6,000 for current expenses. A resolution was presented empowering the committee on streets to contract for the construction of sidewalks dur- ing the coming season and to recom- mend bids therefor and hold public meetings in relation thereto. Aldermen Graves and Jenkins spoke in favor of the city’s doing the work itself, and the resolution was tem- porarily tabled. . To Extend Block Pavement. After the passaZe of a resolution empowering the street committee to extend the block paving on Main street (easterly) to the extent of their appropriation, and to let out the work or have it done themselves by men to be employed by the city, the same course was pursued in regard to the previous resolution about sidewalk construction. The committee will therefore follow whichever course seems to them most expedient. A resolution authorizing the street committee to enter into a contract for the spraying of the trees on the city’s streets was adopted, ‘The street committee was empow- ered to purchase crude oil for street sprinkling at such times as the; fit, not to exceed their appropri The same course was pursued in re- gard to trap rock, not to exceed 100 carloads. The committee on streets and fire department, jointlv. were empowered to advertise for bids and make a con- tract in regard to hiring teams for drawing fire trucks, etc. The committee to whom was re- ferred the petition of the Willimantic Trust Co.. presented by William A.
