Mole been paid $14,178.85 for since- the first of, last November, of which $11,250 has 'been raid him since the first of July, ac- rjurd!vng to the reports of the commis- sion? ‘These are questions for the Nor- wich and electrical commission to auewer, involved in a resolution pass- ed by the common eouneil at jts S¢p- tember meeting en Monday night af- ter Councilman Ear] E. Mathewson had called attention to figures which he had secured from the reports of the commission. The councilman at- tack on the commission and his ad- vocacy of a demand for an accouniing was the only business out of the or- dinary at the meeting which was a short one and was in session only about 45 minutes. Ceuncilman Mathewson intreduced the subject by stating that several months ago a city meeting authorized the hiring of an expert to give ad- vice about the rumming of th2 plant and voted the sum of $1,000 to be paid which he 00 in' 3 year ill for vember, of which $11,250 has been paid since the first of July. It is a rumor currently reported, said Mr. Mathew- son, that the gas and eletrical com- mission had entered into g -contract with Mr, Mole by which this expert was to be paid 10 per cent. commis- sion _on money expended for repairs and 10 per cent. on_the grass receipts of the city gas and electric plant. The payments made seem to hear out such a rumor, said Mr. Mathew- son, though he could not tell whether such a contract exis®®d or not. He thought the council ought to know. The city meeting has appropriated 3225000 for repairs for the gas and electric plant. Ten per eent. of this would be $32,500 for Mr. Mole’s com- mission if sych a contract existed. Th® last annua! sross receipts showed at $339,294.02. Based on this figure figre Would be a further commission to Mr. Mole of $38929.40, which Would be a total to be paid him of $61,420.40. Meanwhie the rates for mas and esctricity have gone up and the ques- tion is whether the services of this expert are worth the mopey. If %o is such a good men, 1 don't beieve they would have o raise the rates the way v have in the past Gas and_Electrical Commissionersand the charge or charges itemized, and {1he actua]l monev paid to cate by sa Roard of Gas and Blectrical Commic- foners to <aid H Mole en account | of said contract or agreement. and the s1id Board of Gas and ctrieal Commissioners are further directed to e Works— ink- sp 10 6 .

Siea, a well known brick mason foreman in this city before he went into the army, has been in the thick of ‘the ting along the Marne front. He is in Co. D of the 1024 machine gun battalion, which started the Huns on the run after the marines had thrown the Boche back at Chateau-Thierry. Corporal Shea gives tl :"&u.-w vivid description of the fighting in a letter to his brother, Patrick F. Shea, of 472 Boswell avenue: Behind the Lines. France, Aug. ith, 1918, Dear P, F.: 1 have been waiting a long time for mail, and today I got a let of jt. 1 received two from you dated July 3d and 13th, also one from John dated July 13th, and three from Kit dated June 27th, July Sth and-Sth, so you see 1 am pretty well fed up on home news just now. -The worst of it is that they all come in at ence, and then it will be & lang time until we get some more. We sure do. like to get mail. We would rather go with- out eats than mail. Well, of course you haye read all about the big drfve. We had the honor of starting them on the run. The marines stopped them before we got there and when our divisien re- lieved them we started righ{ in to push, and we pushed so hard that we had a bard job keeping up with them. On the way we picked up a lot of them and they said they were tired of run- ning. After chasing them for a couple of days we came to where they made a stanq at a strong point. They sure did put up a fight there; but the old Y. D. syre did have the bit in its teeth a:dd nothing could stop it. They took those machine gun nests and started Fritzie on the run again. Of course, you know that this is all open fghting and most of it in the daylight. Believe me, it is not.all fun to carry a machine gun throush woods and fields and swamps and fences and wire while 77s and 133s are landing all around you, and once in a while a “box car” will land and tear a hole about 30 feet 1n diameter, Sometimes we advanced so fast that our own artillery could not keep up, and then all we could do was lie on our bejlies and. wonder where the next one would land, and pray fer our own artillery to open up, and when, after hugging the mud for half an hour or more, seeing some of the boys out of luck, 'you hear a 75 open up from the rear, and then a 153, and then a whole lat of them; Oh, Bov! ain't it a grand apd glorious feeli because you know that when our gunners get on the job that Fritzie's little party is bout o We have everything our own way then until we get in range o fhis machine guns, but it doesn't take long to shut them up, and then he is ready to holier “Kamerad,” but that doesn’t get him anything that im- proves his health any more. I sup- pose that sounds “horrid” to you peo- pie over there, but over here we see things that change your viewpoint, You must t fire with fire, and be- Li me, he has no stomach for his own mediciae.
