HALLOWELL.

At the meeting of the City Council on
Monday evening but little business came up
for action. Roll OF accounts No. 10. amount
ing to S541.22 was approved and an order
providing for its payment passed. City
Agents Report of liquors sold in the month
of December amounting to S72 was accepted.
An order was passed directing the Liquor
Agent to refuse to sell liquor to any strang-
er without personal recommendation from
some reliable citizen and not to sell to aLv
person of known or suspected Incorporate
habits, or to minors without a written order
from parents or guardians. An order direc'-
ing the Street Commissioners to keep the
sidewalks cleared of snow at the expense of
the city was laid on the table in the Common
Council.
The officers elect of John b. Hubbard Post
G. A. r., were installed on Monday evening
last by Post Commander Geo. S. Fuller,
large number of members and their lady
friends being present. Remarks for the
good of the order were made by number Of
the comrades, after which refreshments were
served in the banquet hall.
The Hallowell Cotton Manufacturing Co.
have all of the pipeing and other apparatus
for automatic sprinklers for protection
against fire, which will soon be put in place.
The sprinklers are placed about 20 feet apart
greater heat is applied than is needed for
the proper heating of the building, when a
spray will be thrown through the rooms.
This will necessitate larger and higher
water tank than they now have, which will
probably be placed in the tower, which will
have to be raised to accommodate it. We
hope that while they are at work on the
tower a new bell will be placed in it.

a few evenings ago, the fastening of ga.
