The Trustees Report.

The village trustees have issued their
annual report for the year 1881, to-
gether with the reports of the treasurer,
chief engineer, clerk of police, and SUI
perintendent of water works. Our
readers are referred to the reports
themselves for details. 1t appears to
have been IA rather expensive year for
the village, but the situation justified
the means taken to straighten out GER
tain matters. Everything seems to
have worked well, and the improve
ments for which the extra expense was
incurred can he counted as permanent
improvements. From the treasurer's
report the Indebtedness of the village
is shown to be S77 ,4}7 44-an increase
of -, lOl 81 over the debt in 1880. The
fire department is in good shape and
has cost the past year Sill "a; sew
erage has cost $500 - lighting streets
Sob Of the water works some 81,
;E9 II: highways, including brick
sidewalks, S5,725 Sc; general expenses
S6,5S2 M. The recapitulation shows
u total expense of $23,20;} 10, against
SIG, SOL 53 for lSS0-the water works
being mainly responsible for the in
crease.

Notwithstanding the drilling rain
and slippery streets, gOodly number
of people assembled at the Baptist
church on Monday evening to partici-
pate i'll Christmas festival. The pro-
gramme of the evening included an
oyster supper furnished by the ladies'

quality and abundance of food provi-
ded, and we should judge that it might
he reasonably so pecuniarily.

Chesley had received, in trade with
one Arthur Miles, the latter's note for

claimed, went to where Miles was at
work, asked him for the money and
offered him Il discount of two dollars
| if he would pay the note then, and re-
ceived from Miles an order on his
mother. This order the state claimed
to he IL forged instrument, and relied
mainly on the testimony of Arthur
Miles, who claimed that he had never
signed the order, or given Chesley au
thority to sign it for him. A large
number of witnesses were examined OF

Some boys at the Vile did very
cruel and mean thing one day last
week. They took vagrant dog out
upon the meadow, tied him to tree,
and then shot at him with a toy pistol.
At every shot the wounded animal set
up painful cry, when the semi savage
boys would set up a shout. This was
continued until six or seven shots were
fired, when the dog died. Such cruel
acts in boys educates them to be cruel
and barbarOus men. 1t is as cOwardly
to abuse a dumb animal as it is to NAL
treat weaker boy. Parents will do
well to enquire if their boy was en-
gagged in this cruel "spOrt."
