WALLINGFORD.

A special meeting of ths board of bur- gesses was held last evening to take action on the disposition of the surplus crushed stone thrown out from the electric road bed. Superintendent Gray of the electric road was present, and the matter was dis cussed and an agreement was amicably ar ranged that was satisfactory to all parties. Superintendent Gray agreed that no more of the crushed stone would be carried out of the borough, and what remained would be placed by the electric road teams on the line of Center and Quinnipiac streets at the point where the roadway needs widening, according to the judgment of the road committee, which means that most of the stone will be used near Northrop's bridge on Center street and east of Wallace's race bridge on Quinnipisc street. The matter of continuing the track to the original des- tination at Simpson. Hall, Miller & Co.'s factory was discussed. Superintendent Gray stated that he was ready and anxious to lay the track at once, ,as the plans called for, providing the objection of crossing the bridge at Northrop's brook was with drawn. Burgess Barber stated that Select man Mix had found that he had no voice in the matter according to the layout accepted and withdrew his objections. MT. Gray stated that he should complete the work at once, and then the entire line from Simp- son'a to Wallacs's bridge would bs finished up in manner that ceuld not fail to give satisfaction to the public. The meeting was harmonious throughout. All that was asked by the burgesses regarding the dis trfbution of the stone was cheerfully agreed to by Superintendent Gray. The road committee with Superintendent Gray Will go over the line to-day and see where tho stone shall be placed.

HIGH SCHOOL NEWS.

Annual Exam. ordeal Ends To-Oay-
 Results Announced On Friday -
 That Petition HOnored-The Class
 Day Program and Tickets - Good
 Bassos in ProfusIon.
 The annual examinations at the high school end to-day at 12 o'clock, having commenced ten days ago. The result of the examinations will be made known on Friday to the graduating class, and proba- ply to the whole school.
 The petition sent to the board of educa- tion by the senior boys asking leave to keep certain text books with which to pre- pare for the Yale entrance examinations has been recognized. The boys will be permitted to take the books home pro- vided they supply written pledge signed by parents, to return all books.
 Anyone of the graduating class who has lost any books and has net made them good, will not be allowed to participate fin the commencement exercises.
 The class historians have been examined by the supervising committee which was appointed early in the year, consisting of Misses Sheridan and Whitney and Mir. Zimmerman. The class day program will soon be announced. All class. day tickets have been distributed to the members of the class. numbering 140. Owing to the greater sizs of the class this year each member does not receive quite as many | tickets as those in previous years. The | class day music Is of a superior order this year, ss has been evidenced by the rehear- sals up to the present time.
 At recent rehearsal of graduation musfc Professor Jepson remarked that the chorus | of bass singers this year excelled any oi 1 previous years, and was equally as good st | the Gounod chorus. This is moet extravs gsnt praise for high school singers, but the | boys gre determined to maintain their rep utation.
 The retraction made by the Palladium yesterday concerning that much talked -ot | high school debsuch did not sesm to satis fy the victims of the accusations. One o the number went up to Hartford yester day and obtained from the manager o Proctor's opera house a written statement | signed by the manager himself, stating
 that the following article which appeared
 in the Hartford Post is entirely true;
 The New Haven Palladium Monday mad, its leading story frightful account O
 dissraceful drunken orgies indulged by th
 Hillhouse high school boys in this cit.
 Saturday evening after the interscholasti
 games st the park. The boys were chsrg
 ed with having besn evicted, thirty O
 forty in number, from Proctor's oper
 house by the police. There is no trutl
 whatever to the statement, the boys con
 ducting themselves very soberly and mak
 ing no disturbance during their stay here
 The boys were much pleased when the
 read this article, as this evidence Is ss con
 elusive ss any one would desire, that tn
 Hillhouse boys do know how to behav
 themselves when away from home. | Other Hartford papers contained simifa
 articles and none spoke in an unsavor
 manner of the boys. Each contained posi-
 tive denials of disgrsceful conduct in th
 Capital City. Further developments i
 the case are expected today, ss the ps
