settled, and the Committee on Highways
has taken the matter into its hands, and
the fieshy gentleman, Charlonne, whose
familiar face has been seen for several
Summers, Is now out OF the business, and
In another column will be found his stock
for sale.
IL will be remembered that at the re-
cent Council meeting the matter was dis
cussed, but nothing was decided upon.
Councilman Schiller informed Charlonne
yesterday that II he could sell his carts
to do so. Charlonne is not in the best of
humor In the way he has been used.
II was learned last evening that the
Committee on Highways had purchased
| a watering cart OF their own aud were
anxious to find pair of horses to draw
II. The rumor that John II. Barber had
taken the work is untrue. He was simply
approached for horses.
There is one cart now on the streets,
but certain ones only receive any benefit
from 1t, and there are many who are kick
Ing about the terrible dusty highways.
Broad street is cared for, but equally as
important streets are neglected, for the
reason that the one cart cannot do the
work. This fact causes faultHnding
among the taxpayers, and II In a sure
thing that this has been q most un-
pleasant season on account of the absence
of the sprinklers. just when the COM
mittee will get 1t into service they will
not state, but everyone hops 1t will be at
an early date.
License Commissioners.
The Board of License Commissioners
were In session last evening and had
small audience to listen to their work. Ill
OF the members were present. The nrst
petition presented was for the transfer Of
the license Of Joseph II. Martell to Charles
Plant OF Albion. The secretary read a
remonstrance from many land owners,
and he was given leave to withdraw.
The petition for the transfer of the IL
cense OF Exa Lenoue from 81 Lincoln ave.
nue. to 6i2 Broad street came next, and q
remonstranoe was read from the Rev.
Father Mahoney of the Church of the
Lady Of the Sacred Heart, who objected
on account OF the close proximity to the
French church parochial school and con-
vent and spske of the many children
whose morals are early In life corrupted
by such solves" which they are daily
compelled to pass. One of the members
of the board then presented petition In
favor OF the granting of the license. The
board discussed pro and con the 200 feet
clause, and 1t was finally granted, al
though It is the opinion of several that
the distance is not the required 200 feet.
The next was the case OF Joseph
Thoin OF Manville. Judge Lee of Woon-
socket appeared for the petitioner. Clerk
Walcott read long list of persons who
stated In their petitions that Mr.. Thoin
was good church member and a man
who would conduct the business In a
proper manner, and they were now In
favor OF granting the license, although on
a former occasion signed remonstrapce.
Mr.. Thoin answered q few questions, and
while rhoin, who was formerly a Demo-
crat, but must have changed, was holding
a consultation with Republican leader,
the license was granted and the Manville
crowd went home In high spirits.
Lnsr Nights squirt.
The pride of the village, the old Vol
unteer, was given a shaking up last even
ing at the corner of High and Cross
streets, which attracted large and ex-
cited crowd. The vets appeared In Sum-
mer attire and did good work. The ma
chine they claim was never In better con-
dition, and made 1893 feet. Then the ma
chine was taken to the house, where Q
general talk was held about Worcester.
