He said he had always supported her well and this she did mat deny in court. Asked if he were willing to return to his home and support his wife and child, Cote promptly and “willingly replied in the affirmative. Mrs. Cote insisted, however, that she dld not want him back; neither did she want him to pay any more for the support of herself and child. She did want him sent to jail. Cote's willingness to fulflll all of his oblga- tions lined up opposite Mrs. Cote ideas of what she wanted done after causing her husband’s arrest for non- support, was a novel situation for the court to pass upon.

At the monthly meeting of the com- mon_council the new rules governing | traffic were adopted, most of these being based upon statute law. Another important action taken by the councll was the adoption of the recommendation made by the police committee for a police telephone sys- tem. Three of these electrically light- ed signal stations are to be installed —one at the Central fire station, one at the junction of Elm and Bridge street, the other at corner of Provi- dence and Church streets. These si tions are to consist of regular tel phone instruments locked in cases to which the officers will have keys. Over each station at a height of about 12 feet will be a red electric light, which will flash notice to the police of calls at the box. Any person who desires a police officer simply calls the telephone operator, who presses a but- ton that will cause the red lamps to glow and attract the attention of the guardian of the Jaw. The rental of these statlons will cost the city $28 each per annum. to be punched regularly by the offl 5 4 cers on AUTOPSY IN WESTERLY CASE ShheO:denDr.M.H.Sanlontolnmfi‘nheDafl:,ome- othy Sullivan—0One of 42 Poisoned by Eating Custard | Pie—Band of Gypsies Followed and Horses Tested for Glanders—More Salary for Bradford Postmaster. ‘The epidemic of ptomaine poisoning In Westerly has reached its imit.
