An Attack of Crip Always Leaves Kidneys In Weakened Condition Doctors in all parts of the country have been kent busy with the epi- demic of,grip which has visited so many homes. The symptoms of grip this year are often very distressing and leave the system in a run down condition, particularly the kidneys which seem to suffer most, as almost every victim complains of lame back and urinary troubles which should not be neglected, as these danger signals pften lead to dangerous kidney trouples. Druggists report a large sale on Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root which so many people say soca heals and strengthens the kidneys after an attack of grip. Swamp-Root is a great kidney, liver and bladder relnedy, and, being an herbal compound, has a gentle healing effect on the kidneys, which is almost immeédiately noticed in most cases by those who try . Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., offer to_send a sample size bottie of Swamp-Root, o receipt of ten cents, to.every suffe: who requests it. A trial will con- vince any one who may be in need of Bash s W S .00. r o & r Be to mention this s New Year’s Meeting Consumes But Thirty Minutes—New Fangled Card Game to be Barred From Saloons—High School Juniors’ Dance—Mills-Holloway Brown Alumni Invited to Boston Meeting. The Westerly town council started the New Year well by holding the regular meeting at the regular time, with every member present, and fin- ished the business in record time, 30 minutes, including the reading of the minutes of a regular and special meet- ing. President Maurice W. Flynn pre- sided and all the bills for fhe month of December were ordered paid just as they were presented by Clerk Iiverett E Whipple. The bills from the over- seer of the poor, which included his salary and that of the keeper of the town farm, and the Christmas dinners to the deserving poor, and aid to the poor generally for the month, amount- ed to $250.58! This seemingly extrav- agant amount is perhaps due to the high price of coal and necessities of Life. Councilmen Robinson and Thorp, to whom was referred the petition of Abraham Liebowitz and others for in- vestigation as to the safety of the Materese ice pond in Central park, re- ported that the owner of the pond has 2greed to fence in the pond, and this satisfied the petitioners. s Lewis Stanton, superintendent of health, reported there wad#¥ no con- tagious disease in the town during the month_of December: Chief of Police Thomas E. Brown submitted his report for December, which showedeeight arrests for violent assault, three for intoxication and one each for gambling, carrying concealed weapon and revelling. The chief at- tached a summary of arrests for the vear, which totalled 151. This sum- mary was printed in The Bulletin Monday. President Flynn stated that he had been informed that the many arrests made in the vicinity of saloons kept by Italians,was due to a card game called The Boss. Quite a number can £lt in at the game, and every player must make his chip towards psvire for the drinks, but there is one indi- vidual winner, and he is designated as the boss. He can drink all that is coming himself, or he can make di- vision of the drinks to his associates, just as he chooses. He sometimes se- lects a few friends to join him in the Grinkfest and ignores others who help- eu pay. for the drinks. This frequently creates ill-feeling and usually ends in a row, sometimes of little import, and at other times in a row of much con- sequence, that results in arrest and prosecution for violent assault with dangerous weapon or _carrying con- cealed weapon. The Boss has been barred in some saloons, beginning with the new year. At the December meeting of the town council Frank W. Coy called the attention of the council to the dilapi- dated condition of the fence that di- vides the town property in front of the old town hail and the Coy prop- erty in Union street. Mr. Cey asked that the fence be repaired. If the town did not claim ownership of the wall and fence, Mr. Coy was willing to do the repairs. The council referred the matter to the school committee, as the old town hall property had been turn- ed over to that committee for school purposes. At the meeting Monday Councilman Haswell stated that Mr. Coy had asked him to bring the sub. ject before the council again, and this he did, at the reauest of Mr. Coy that the matter had been refer- red to- the school committee, and Mr. Coy replied that he did not know the school committes in this transaction and that his business was with the town. Clerk Whipple expressed the opinion that the town council had no more to do with the fence in question than with the fence at the Westerly High school. Councilman Thorp suggested that the retention of a section of the prop- erty as a public hitching place left that part under the jurisdiction of the highway committee, and pefhaps the counci Councilman Haswell stated that in annual town meeting the old town hall property, all of it the building and adjoining land, had been given over to the custody of fhe school commit- tee for school purposes, and therefore was not within the jurisdiction of the town council. He said the matter had been formally presented to the com- 'mittee and that action was expected at an early date. New Year’s day was observed by the closina of banks, the schools and the postoffice, but otherwise business went on about as usual, and with a roticeable decrease in the volue of store transactions. There were sev- eral formal receptions in society. The old-time New Year's calls, noted for informality, have become a lost society feature in Westerly. _The junior class of the Westerly Kigh school enjoyed a novelty in the entertainment line in school hall New Year's night. Besides the social re- ception there was an infmigration dznce and nearly every known nation ‘was represented in costume. It proved very enjoyable, was largely attended, and excellently managed by Lester Gayitt and Howard Taylor, president and vice president, respectively, of the junior class. Represontative David J. White of East Greenwich will succeed Albert H. Langworthy of Westerly as chairman of the house committee on appropria- tions, Mr. Langworthy having been €d to represent Westerly in the senate. Mr. White has announced his withdrawal as a candidate for deputy speaker, and it is stated that Richard W. Jennings of Cranston is slated for that position. The Rhode Island gen- eral assembly ~convenes today, and Governor Beeckman will be inaugurat- €d at noon with the customary cere- monial. . The fish hatchery authorized for Rhode Island will be located at Block Island and “be devoted to the commer- cial species of that region,” according to the report of the United States fisheries bureau, just published. The site for the hatchery has been sur- veyed and selected, but title to the property has not yet been secured. At Wickford the bureau operates a branch of the Woods Hole fish cultural etation, at which quantities of flatfish esgs are collected. Newport has entered into the tlle- fishing industry, vessels going out from that port to catch the new fish that has become so popular.

A trio of sensationalisms in Wester- 1y is almost ripe enough to be pricked. Services were held in the Episcopal and Catholic churches in the morning of New Year's day. The New Year’s edition of The Bul- letin allotted to Westerly was not equal to the demand, all being pur- chased within an hour after arrival. Mrs. Frederick C. Buffum and daugh- ter Marjorie left Westerly Monday for Orlando, Ga., where they will spend the balance of the winter with Mr. Buftum. Robert M.

Morris Foster, while driving his au- tomobile Saturday evening in the Union village, was_going at about a ten-mile an hour clip when he met a larze democrat team being driven by James Shey. The vehicles met on the narrow union bridge which crosses the Aldrich Bros. mill ditch. Foster did not see the team until he was nearly to it, nevtreheless he tried to stop his car as quickly as possible. The team was damaged considerably, but no injury happened to the horses. Foster’s automobile received a smash- ing up; the lights and radiator were bent and the two front wheels were put out of commission. The car was hauled to a garaze and repaired. Many Skaters Out.

She was Mrs. D. ‘Owen, daughter of Captain James Ben - nett of the St. Helena regiment. She was nearly 96 years old. Mrs. Owen was born on the island on Jan. 26, 1821, and when a few months old was taken by her mother to the emperor's funeral on May 9.
