 Considered.
 A regular meeting of the Board of Select men was held last evening, Selectman Tyler presiding.

 Selectman Reynolds said that the culvert ordered on Martin street should be put in before frost sets in. The Committee on Roads and Bridges will see that the work is done at once. --- ,.--
 Town Agent Reynolds surprised the Board by stating to them that Tax Collector Tuttle had deposited with the town treasurer yester- day $50, 900; so that they did not have to borrow money to pay the State tax, which was paid yesterday. The collector thinks he will deposit about $10,0o more by Fri day or Saturday.
 MT. Feldman said he could not under stand how it was that the collector kept back so much money when it was likely that the bulk of it was collected in July and August. The Board then held an informal discus sion on the subject of vaccination. The subject of vaccine virus came in for it's share of attention. MT. Feldman said that the vote of the town meeting was that the virus should be purchased on the recom- mendation of the Board of Health, and on his motion the committee having the public vsc- cination in charge, consisting of Messrs. Rey- holds, Treat and Brown, were instructed to consult the Board of Health regarding the make or virus to be used.
 Mir. Reynolds announced that the State tax amounting to $62, ,442.S6, and the mili- tary communication tax amounting to $12, ,S46- 60, were paid yesterday. Adjourned.
