Norton-There Is not a word OF truth

Council Proceedings.

The Council met in regular session last
Wednesday evening; all members present
except Councilman Hitchcock. Minutes of
the previous meeting were read and ap-
proved.
A remonstrance from property owners
on Camp st. was read, against the proposed
construction of a sidewalk on north side Of
said street. The matter was referred to
the Sidewalk Committee.
A contract from the Ashtabula Gas Co.
was read. in which the Company are to
light the streets in accordance with the pro-
position submitted at previous meeting.
On motion the contract Was accepted and
ordered to be signed by the proper officers.
The committee on Harbor and Wharves
submitted propositions from David Sloan
and d. T. Hepburn, civil engineers, for
making preliminary surveys of the prOpos-
ed Harbor Improvement, and reported
they had accepted the proposition of Mr..
Sloan, and that the survey was now being
made.
On motion special committee Of three
composed of Messrs. Manning, Israel and
Randall was appointed to take steps to
abate the tramp nuisance, and to report
at next meeting.
The following resolution by Mr.. Man
ming was adopted:
ResoEred, That the engineer be and is
hereby directed to make map Of the pro-
perty directly interested by the proposed
improvement, and that he present the said
map to the owners of above mentioned pro-
perty and that the said owners be asked to
note on Mapths amount of damages they
expect or are willing to give towards said
improvement. The expense of said map to
be paid out OF general fund, and that fYe
tax payers be asked to act as = Committee
to also appraise said property and that the
appraisement be also noted on map.
The Solicitor, to whom was referred the
bill of A. H. MOores, of $75 for a road
scraper, which was purchased by the Street
Committee without permission of the
Council, reported that the village was not
liable therefor. A lengthy discussion fol
lowed. in which the legality of the action
of the Street Committee in building stone
culvert across Bridge street without first
receiving the consent of the Council, was
discussed. Mr.. Fisk, chairman of the
Street committee. said ne had the consent
of the Comm. in both purchasing the road
scraper and making the improvements on
Lake and Bridge streets, and that he was
not aware of the necessity of first getting
the consent Of the Council. A resolution
was finally ordered to be drawn by the
Solicitor restricting committees from ex-
pending money without permission first
being granted by the Council.
The following resolution by Mr.. Man
ning was read and adopted:
ResoI0ed, That the Street Committee be
and are hereby instructed to make report
on the work done on Lake street between
the overhead bridge and the bridge at the
Harbor, and that they present the said re-
port at the next regular meeting.
Thomas ]. Bailey was appointed and
confirmed as policeman at the Harbor for
the term of six months.
An ordinance to provide for the construc-
tion of sidewalk on the east side of Lake
street came up for its final reading and was |
lost.

Fire.

A new barn just completed by Mr..
VIM. Humphrey, upon the premises now
occupied by DR.. D.. S. Hall, on Prospect
street, took fire at midday on Friday last,
and was entirely consumed, with its com
tents-consisting of valuable two-seat
family carriage, two sets of single harness,
hay and grain and some other commodities
valued at about $780, The horse and
pheton had Just been put up and they
were saved while the cinders were dropping
from the loft. The fact stated by those
who put the horse up, that they closed and
bolted the front door after entering, and
when the fire was discovered that door was
open, seems to warrant the conclusion that
some one had passed out who might have
bean the one who applied the match. The
fire began in the loft, and DR.. Hall informs
us, that when first seen by him, the hay
of which there was about ton-was IN
full flame, and that the fire not having
burst through the roof, was confined to
the loft, as could be plainly seen through
the upright, unbattened siding. This
would preclude the theory Of fire from a
passing train, and from the open front
door, leaYe- the evidence in favor of in
cendiarsm. Another fact that strengthens
this conclusion is, that the dog kennel,
standing against the wood shed at rear Of
the house, was fired the night before, and
did actually set the shed on fire. Beside
these evidences of design, there is beside,
other probable and corroborative testimo-
ny, in further raids upon the dog by the
aid of poison in one or two attempts to
put him out Of the way. The whole af-
fair is characterized with boldness and an
adroltness that rather leads to the thought
of probable familiarity with the premises.
This boldness and apparent persistence in
inficting injury and the destruction Of
property have done much to destroy the
sense of security of the family, and they
are much disturbed in their rest, and the
DIR. especially, who is an invalid, is natur-
ally restless and nervous and made to suf-
fer both in body and mind. The conclu-
sion is pretty generally INDUCED, that this
is at least the third incendisry fire among
us, and the sentiment is more or less COM
mon that some measures might properly
be taken upon the part OF our municipal
authorities to ferret out the offenders and
bring them to punishment.
