Dorey Jarvis was coming up Main street Saturday afternoon riding a mo- torcycle with a side car in which he was carrying a passenger. In front of the post office there were two teams coming in opposite directions, two mo- torcycles and an automobile. A Polish man who handles coal at the Aspinook tried to cross the street; everything blew for him. He didn't know where he was at when he reached the middle of the street, and Mrs. Jarvis struck him. He was carried 30 feet caught between the car and the machine, but was unhurt and soon walked away. He hung onto his dinner pail all the time.

Benjamin H. Hewitt, state senator from the Shoestring district, held a semi-public_hearing on his own ac- count Saturday afternoon in the office of William A. Wilcox, in the village of Pawcatuck, town of Stonington. The subject matter was the consideration of the bill, presented by Representa- tive Bourdon A. Babcock, of Pawca- tuck, providing for a deputy health officer for Pawcatuck, which has been passed in the house and tabled in the senate. Health Officer Congdon is op- posed to the innovation, so is County County Health Officer Browning, and so_are several senators, who are sat- isfied that one competent health officer is ample for the town of Stonington. Senator Hewitt did not confine his inquiry to the residents of Paweatuck, but invited practicing physiclans of Westerly to the hearing to show cause, if an ythey had, why the Babcock bill should receive senate sanction and be- come law. There is but one physi- cian resident of the village of Pawca- tuck and as it is the custom in this section of the state to appoint phy- cians as health officers, he would be the only person eligible for the pro- posed position, Deacon Ethan Wilcox presided at the formal welcome to Westerly of Rev. F. Stewart Kinley, who recently be- came pastor of the irst Baptist church, and to Mrs, Kinley, wife of the pastor. During the reception ceremonial music was furnished by the Ideal orchestra.

Taylor, Deacon and Mrs. LeRoy Farnsworth, and Deacons Lorenzo Chase, Ethan Wilcox and Stephen Peckham, Ad- dresses were made by the new pastor, and Rev. John G. Dutton of the Broad Street Christian church, Reys Lyman G. Horton of the Grace Methodist church, Rev. Clayton A. Burdick of the Pawcatuck Seventh Day Baptist church and Rev. Frederick A. Mac- donald of the Congregational church. In addition to the music by the Ideal orchestra, there was a piano solo Dby Miss Dorothy Stillwell, violin solo by Thomas James, vocal solo by Wil- liam H. Browning and plano solo by Miss Daisy Kenyon.

Principal Alfred J. Maryott, of the Westerly high school, has been elect- ed principal of the East Providence high school at a salary of $2,000 a year and will resign his position in Westerly. He has been principal of the high school for less than two years and has performed the duties to the full satisfaction of all concerned. Mr. Maryott is a graduate of Brown uni- versity, class of 1908, and has taught at the Hope Street high school, Prov- idence, and has been principal at Sand- wich, Mass, and Kingston, R. I He was chosen principal of the East Prov- idence high school by a vote of four to one in the committee, succeeding Harold Dean, who has been a teacher for 25 years, the school committee de- siring a change. Guiseppe Belligrino, who was shot by Angelo DeBartolo, is soon to be discharged from the Rhode Island state hospital, although at the time of the shooting in Westerly Dr. Scanlan held little hove of his recovery and the surgeons of the hospital freely ex- pressed opinion that he would not sur- vive. His intestines were punctured six times by the bullet. After the wounds were closed he began to im- prove and the improvement has been gradual and satisfactory ever since. He _will probably return to his home in Westerly before the week end. De- Bartola is in the Washington county jail in default of $2,000 bail awaiting trial for the shooting. There was a special meeting of the Westerly town council, Saturday aft- ernoon, and the differences and the misunderstandings that have existed between Chief of Police Thomas B. Brown, Sheriff John R. Wilcox and Deputy Sheriff and Policeman Mit- chell, were amicably and satisfactorily adjusted and harmony will now pre- vail between the county and town of- ficers. There has been interference on the part of the sheriff with matters conducted the services. There were many beautiful floral offerings. Burial wes in the Pautipaug cemetery. Gone to Maine. Thomas R.

The Southern New England Telephone Company in_which the chief of police is con- cerned and the chief desired to have the situation clarified and the only ‘way it could be done was through the action of the town council. Hence the consideration of the matter in special meeting and the settlement in the in- terest of all concerned. The council prepared the budget to be submitted to the financial town meeting next Tuesday and which will be somewhat less in the agsregate than the appropriations of a year ago. The council also met as a board of can- vassers and canvassed the voting list to be in use at the town meeting. These changes were made in the vot- ing list: Added to real estate voters, 14; transferred from real to personal, 1; taken off personal, 1: replaced, 1: off_of real estate, 13. Civil Engineer Thomas McKenzie, of the committee to establish a grade for Lower Elm street and Beach street. which was to submit a plan at the meeting, reported progress, stating that more time was necessary in or- der to get a complete report ready. The grading is quite a problem and will require much additional data. The council authorized the committee to g0 ahead with the work and to en- deavor to have report ready at the next regular meeting, Druggist liquor licenses were grant- ed to C. Leo Higgins of the Rhode Is- land Pharmacy, and to William J. Ban- non for Main street and Watch Hill. A new method of breaking granite was referred to several weeks ago and now Franklin A, Sullivan, president and manager of the Crumb Quarry company, furnished the correct detail He says: “We thave discovered a way of breaking stone by steam. Since we have been in Westerly we have run through the winters. Westerly granite is a particularly hard stone to break successfully, especially so in the winter time, and we found that the only way we could make a split of the large sized pieces when frozen was to deep hole them with steam drlils, and before we put in the deep hole wedges we poured water in the holes and blew the steam into the holes. We found this thawed the stone out between the holes, so we were able to put the wedges and make a break and get almost as good a break as we could in the summer time. “As this was a long process, thaw- ing the stone out by blowing steam into one hole at a time, we made an arrangemenut consisting of a 1 1-4 inch pipe, tapped to take a 1-4 inch nipple every five inches, which is the distance from the centre to the centre of the holes we drill in the winter time. To these ples we attached a 1-4 inch air hose and these went to about the bottom of the hole, We plugged one end of the 1 1-4 inch pipe and connected the other e nd of it with the regular steam pipe. On turning on the steam and allowing it to blow into the holes from five to ten min- utes, according to the size of the stone, we discovered that the stone would split in two and be an abso- lutely true break from centre to cen- tre of each hole, without the use of any wedges, although on an irregularly shaped stone we set the small wedges on the outside and driving them very lightly. “This method has entirely done away with the deep hole wedges and gives a clean break every time where the deep hole wedges tore the stone and left a ragged break. We have broken severa] hundred stones this way and are using it every day and have never failed to get an even break. Before, we had allowed four inches on each side of the hole in order to be safe in breaking it. Now we do not have to allow any except for the diameter of the hole, as we are sure to get a perfect break from the centre o the hole to centre of hole every time. “This is not only a saving in stock, but is always a great saving of time and labor, as on a large stone it took considerable time to set the deep-hole wedges. We are not only using this method of breaking stones on the bank, in deep-holing, but we are also using it in cracking the “stone off of the ledge, and we find it works equally successfully there. This will be of interest to every quarryman who has difficulty in breaking stone when it is frozen. There is no doubt but what they can break stone as easily with steam as we are doing.” Local Laconics. Firemen's Memorial Sunday will be observed in Westerly June 13. The annual parade and inspection of the Westerly fire department will be held Saturday, June 5.

F, Congdon, health officer, re- ports measles as epidemic in Pa tuck, and has taken precautions to prevent the spread of the disease.

A rail feil on his right hand, crushing the muscles, breaking the index finger and dislocating the wrist. He was taken to his home in Pearl street and attended by Dr. Scanlon. The annual town election will be held the first week in June and, so far as known none of the town officers have given advance notice that they will not be candidates for renomina- tion. There is sure to be, however, one new candidate for the town coun- cll, as thera has been a vacancy for a year. The candidate for the seventh counciimanship a year ago on the re- publican tiscket was elected, but it was discovered that he was disqqual- fied as he had neglected to register and could mot even vote for himself.
