portant Business Transacted.

SKowHEGAN, March 5.-(Special. "A
most lively and interesting town meeting
occurred here today. For several days the
air has been full of electricity which caused
a great cloudburst Of humanity at Coburn
hall on Monday, streams of men pouring in
from the outlying districts. A spicy time
was expected, and as everyone had free
ticket, everyone came.
After the election of r. B. Shepherd,

following were elected as selectmen by sub
stantial majorties First, Levi c. Emery
second, R. F. Parker, third, Llewellyn

Following the election of selectmen the
old board was called upon to explain why
in addition to their charges for services as
selectmen, the first and second selectmen
had made an additional charge of $500
each for work in connection with the build
ing of the sewers. Mr.. Snow, first select
man, made a brief explanation of his
charges. Mr.. Mitchell made extended re-
marks, saying that he was engaged by the
other members of the board to superintend
the work of constructing the sewers; that
he put in all his time and that his compen-
sation was fixed at $500. This aroused .
lively fusilade of talk. The meeting voted
to leave the compensation of the selectmen
as fxed by Law, and that if any selectman
performed work for the town, outside his
regular duties or for which he thought he
should receive extra compensation, he
should have the right to lay the bill before
the town, at its annual meeting, for accept
ance or r jsc.ion.
The following officers were elected: As
set sors and overseers, L. C. Emery, K. +.
