Williams, in the third district court, he pleaded not guilty to the charge. The case was continued to next Friday for hearing and a bond of $5,000 was furnished for his appear- ance, with Mrs, Graf as surety. This action is independent of the coroner’s inquiry. Coroner Evereit A. Kingsley has commenced an inquest which will probably occup several days, as Wit- nesses are summoned 'at times best suited to their convenience. The in- quest is conducted in secrecy and the coroner will return his finding to the attorney-general of the state of Rhode Island, probably before next Friday, ‘the day assigned for the hearing in the court on the manslaughter charge. The body of James Fallon that w: recovered from Hoggs quarry hole, Sunday afternoon, where it had been since Friday afternoon, has been for- warded to his home in Fall River, ac- companied by his father, brother and Westerly relatives. The submarine diver from the T. A. Scott company, of New London, who recovered the body, said it was among the most perilous -of under water trips that he had taken, due to the Unevenness of the sides and pottom of the abandoned quarry, and the mud that had accum- ulated between the jagged rock, mak- ing walking along the bottom decid- edly uncertain. The diver found the body forty feet below the surface wita the arms en- circled about the mast of an old der- ! and there was difficulty in re- leasing the hold. This explans wh; the body did not rise to the surface, and therefore was not seen by the three companions of the young man, who were in imming with him in the ¢ hole at the time of the fatality presumed that when young Fallon sunk to tiae bottom, and in a frantic and dazed condition, he grasped the old mast and died soon after, __ DR. F. W. HOLMS, . Dentist | The building of the Westerly Me- morial and Library association was formaily dedicated twenty-one years Yyears ago, Monday, and its growth and usefulness has bordered on the mar- velous. The book on the shelves has increased from 5,000 to nearly 40,000, and the, association has been of a greater sratio. At the open: the working. force of the library was Li- brarian Ethan Wilcox, now librarian emeritus, Miss Fannie Wilcox, assist- ant librarian, and James E. Kennedy janitory, and these are still engaged in the building. In addition, the pres- ent working force is composed of Jo- .| seph L. Peacock, librarian; the Misses Marie _Zangrandi, Natalie Hazard, Alice Kennedy, Sally Coy and Agnes Brodie, assistant librarians, and Ar- thur M. Weeden, assistant janitor. The building was erected as a me- morial to the soldiers and sailors o the civil war as well as for library purposes, and a suitable tablet was placed in the lobby on the second floor, where the quarters of Budlong and Hancock Posts, Grand the Republic are located. ple of Westerly subscribed $: the building fund, which was dupli cated by Stephen Wilcox, who served in conjunction with the Citizens com- mittee. The site was purchased for $15,000, and the building work com- menced. Mr. Wilcox agreeing to add $10,000 to his contribution. The work was well under way when Mr. Wilcox died, ana before he made his second donation to the building fund. But Mrs. Wilcox carried out the plans of her husband. |The project increased in magnitude and Mrs. Wil- cox supported the library and the building until her death. Prior to that sad event, she had purchased the ad- Harry Crosby Under $5,000 Bonds—Charged With Man- %lk slaughter in Causing, Child’s Death—Body of James % B.

She made provision in her will for the perpetual support of the library and care of the park, through a board of trustees, and there has been great improvement in park and building and increase in property, under the direction of the trustees, the size of the park being doubled since the death of Mrs./Wilcox. The library is conceded to be among the most complete insNew England. Due to-the-congestion of traffic on Broad street, between Main and High streets, there is too much business for the lone traffic officer, who is station- ed near the crossing to the Rhode Is- land pharmacy, as he cannot properly cover the Main street section. In or- der to overcome this condition and by reason of lack of police appropriation to provide for an additional officer, it is planned to station a dummy in the place of the present traffic officer and transfer the officer to the head of Main street, the danger point of the town, as trolley cars take on and dis- charge passengers there and there is always much vehicular traffic, The dummy is to be a wooden post with signs of warning and direction to drivers of automobiles and teams, To Put On Flesh And Increase:Weight GOODYADVICE FOR THIN PEOPLE. “I'd certainly give most anything to be able to gain a few pounds and stay that way,” declare many thin men and women. “'Such a_result is usually_not impossible. despite past failures.

Totten, enga: in th produstivn. o Photeplaps 2:‘-.:. stu dio in Voluntown, with many scenes taken in Westerly ana vicinity, took an important part in an actual coun- try court scene in North Stonington, Monday, which, if reproducéd on a moving picture screen would make a decided hit, for it was the real article. The courtroom was filled by men of leisure, in the main composed of aged farmers, and to them the court was as good as a cirdus. The case on trial ‘was that of Mr, Totten against Bird- sey Palmer and was tried before Jus- tice Charles E. Chapman. Mr. Totten purchased the Palmer farm, and all there was thereon, but subsequent events were displeasing to | the purchaser, not solely for the mou- | etary considerations involved, but for the alleged methods of the former owner. It is said that window sashes | were removed from hen coops, bu: ! returned on demand, and like trans-q actions. Mr. Palmer carted from the | premises manure that Mr. Totten | claimed was purchased with the farm | and also removed a lot of corn from the cogn crib, that he did not return, ! claiming the ownersship. Mr. Totten finally resolved to bring suit for seven months' rent of the corn crib and pay for eight cor manure and this is the case th: heard before Justice Chapman. ment was given for defendant : appeal taken_ Allyn L. Brown of Norwich repre- ! sented the plaintiff and Clarence E.| Roche and Charles W. Comstock the defendant. { 1 | BOYLSTON ano EXETER STREETS BOSTON One block from Copley Sq. and Public Library.
