The shortest regular session of the Westerly town council, for the past decade at least, was that held Monday, which lasted just forty minutés, most of that time being consumcd by the reading of thé minutes and approval of the payment of bills. President Flynn jocularly remarked that the short session might possibly be dus to the absence of Councilmen Robertsoh and Fowler, and the tardiness of Councilman Larkin. A bill of $27 for shrubbery at the main entrance to the town hail, caused a few remarks. Councilmen Flynh and Haswel] stated that local florists Had complained for not being asked .to make bids for the work, rather than have the shrubs supplied by a non resident. The matter was wholly with Town Clerk Whipple who stated that if local dealers desired to furnish the ornamental shrubs, they ought to have come forward with the suggestion that resulted in the ornamentation. The annual appropriation of $200 for the Memorial and Library association was ordered to be paid over to ‘the board of trustees. Lewis Stanton, superintendent of health, reported two cases of infantile paralysis during October. Chief of Police Thomas E. Brown reported thirteen arrests during Oc- tober, eight for intoxication, two .in- sane, and one each for crueity to ani- mals, tramp and common drunkard.

It was argued that the miov- ing- picture featuré would vlnln.té the insurance contracts, and farthergthat if this exhibit was of a purely religious and enderiominational naturé it would have the approval of some of the churches, and provision made for its production in a church edifice. The matter was refetred to the custodian of the building and the request will be denied. Thlie council will meet agaln next Wednesday évening, in compliance with law, and act ds a returning board on the votes cast Tuesday on the ligiior license question, Mrs. Joseph Leonardi and het* néar- ‘y three years old daughter Nellie, of 8 Central Park, were severely burn- ed late Saturday afternoon, and there is doubt as to the recovery of the child. The little girl was playing with some matches in the back yard, when hgr clothing became ignited, and the mother rushed to the rescue and, re- gardless of herself, finally extinguish- ed the flame. The mother was burned in the hands and arms, and very se- verely in the right hand. Nearly all the clothing of the child was burned as was also her form, from head to foot, and late Monday she was in a critical condition, Dr. Scanlon was summoned and alleviated their suffer- ing as much as possible. e Local Laconics. The polls open at 9 and close at & today. Several local societies and clubs will receive election returns tonight. The banks and the saloons are closed by law on national election day in Rhode Island. Work is soon to be commenced in the construction of the Crandall build- ing in Canal street. It will be the first time a United States senator will be elected by the people in Rhode Island. Now Hopkinton comes to the front and claims to be the republican ban- ner town of Rhode Island. Mrs. Carl O. Flint has returned from a two months’ visit in Maine, where she was the guest of Mr. Flint's par- ents. Several summer residents of Watch Hill, who have made Westerly their Iegfl residence, for obvious reasons, ‘will vote in the town hall today. The Westerly High school football team will try conclusions with the team representing the, Norwich Free Academy at Norwich this afternoon. No democrat has been elected to office in Westerly for more than ten years, and then only on a combination- citizens—ticket, when three were elect- ed to the town counecil. After the ballots are counted the Westerly Board of Trade will take n of the town hall and re- ceive election returns tonight. The hall will be open to the public. “I don't believe there are enough democrats and sour-milk republicans in the town to defeat Langworthy for the state senate, but Babcock may give him a close rub, at that,” is the way a4 prominent republican put it Mon- day. The only matters upon which the republican v of Westerly is di- vided in today’s eleetion is on the li- quor license question and as to wheth- er Maurice W. Flynn or Samuel H. Davis, both republicans, will represent the Second distriect in the next gen- eral assembly. With the exception of a few indi- vidual contests for the general assem- bly, the election is so one-sided in Westerly that there is not a tinge of exscitement as to the local result. Were every town in the country like Westerly politically, Hughes would be practically elected unanimously. Special Fish and Game Protectors Hill and Btoddard went into the wilds of Central Falls Sunday, seeking for gamesters who were hunting for game on that day in violation of law. They arrested Jesse Fish and Robert Main, and preferred charges against them before Justice of the Peace Chapman in North Stonington. They were pen- alized as the law directs.
