CONSULTATIONS ENEMIES.

They Voice Their Sentiments Before
 she Common CouRcil's Special Cem-
 mIttee-Henrv l.. H0tchkiss' Arxu-
 ments.
 The anti consolidationists took the first of their innings before the special committee of the court of common council last night. There were but three speakers, the principal one being Henry L. Hotchkiss.
 Mir. Hotchkiss, after eloquently going over the arguments, read the list of town expenses and attempted to show that little or nothing could be saved by consolidation. He said he thought consolidation would come as soon as the population of the outlying districts needed it. Now it would be absurd to think of farmers coming here to get their petitions
 through the common council. Now they go
 right to the eelectmen and get what they ask for.
 Major Strong, selectman and member o1 the board of education, said he was upon the selectmen's committee on outside poor. He was confident these affairs had been conduct ed most expeditiously. He wished those who had criticised the towns way of dealing with l it's poor would come and look over the books | and see whether or not everything had beer conducted well. L. w. Beeoher said that when the senti ment was towards g one-man power in thu l oity he and his neighbors objected to being ysnked in. He hoped the outlying districts l would never be taken in against the consent of the people, He thought it had not been proved that anything better than three, | headed government could be suggested.

It is no wonder that the play has become as popular with the au- dience as the novel has been with its read ers Mir. Hilliard and Miss Blancke made all the fun, and this was balanced by Miss Rigl's effective impersonation of "Narina Paoli" The play will be repeated this af- ternoon at 2:30 o'clock and this evening.
