Tuesday.
Two Assaults for %.
Sunday Peter Turner assaulted John
Mitchell on the Cumberland side of the
river, then crossed over to Lincoln and
assaulted Herman Aunchman. He paid
IS and costs today.
An Increasing Business.
Tho business OF Peter German, the gro-
Ger, has been steadily increasing during
tho past few years and has grown 30
large that he found IL necessary to seek
other and larger quarters.
Accordingly, the foundation for
largo business block has boon laid on tho
corner OF Dexter street and Sumner ave-
nue.. IL Will be two and one-half stories
in height, and will contain two tenements
on the second floor and a large storo un-
derneath opening on tho street.
Saturdays Excursion.
Saturday one Of the bost excursions of
the season will be held from this village.
II is the annual outing OF the people OF
the Holy Trinity parish and will be made
by Pawtucket steamer to Crescent Park.
All should go.
Tho Many Improvements.
This village is queer looking place Just
at present. Many streets nro torn up to
allow sewers TO be laid while others arc
being widened.
The march Of Improvement seems to
have struck this town in earnest, and q
walk through the village will convince
| anyone without any further proof being
| asked for.
Tho work on High street Ia progressing
rapidly, and II will not be long before IL
will be completed, and when 1t Is there
Will be no finer street in this vicinity.
Beginning Us II does at Valley Falls
and extending down along tho river to the
center of tho village and then on to the
heart OF Pawtucket 1t is an important
thoroughfare.
The now foundation for the Cole Block
is noarly ready for the structure to be
moved upon, and when this building is In
its proper position the hardest task will
be complete.
The street will be the samo width from
Pawtucket to Valley Falls and will be
perfectly straight, which will increase It's
beauty.
Mondays Council Meeting.
Next Monday another meeting OF the
Town Council will be held and Clerk
Crawford says unless something snfor-
scon turns up there will be but worry little
business TO transact. Tho only woighty
matter that the Council hash had to con-
slider lately were tho petitions Of tho Paw
tucket and Interstate Street Railway Com.
panies to lay rails on certain streets I'm
the village and town, namely High md
Broad streets and Lonsdalo avenue.
A great deal of friction exists between
the two companies, and the Council had q
delicate Job to loavo all favoritism aside
and render decision for the best interests
OF the town.
That they did SO all will admit, for in
granting tho Interstate permission to lay
tracks on High street they did something
that is surely going to boom this place.
Again In giving the Pawtucket Com
pany the right to extend its track on
Lonsdalo avenue to Prospect Hill, Ions
dale, they gave the people increased facil-
tiles for travel in a section where ID IL
needed.
The Council acted very wisely and did
nothing hastily. Everything was con-
sidored and ample timo given for n hear
ing 80 that now everybody ia perfectly
satisfied.
