Property at 6S Fair Street Deeded to Her
 by Edward Burlington.
 A real estate transfer of more than usual interest and peculiar significance was recorded in the town clerks office yesterday. It was the transfer of the property at 63 Fair street from Ed ward Burlington to Mary Moran, alias Fitzpatrick. The property is deeded outright to Mrs. Moran, and simulta- neously with the receipt of this deed was received another of mortgage character from Mary Moran to Edward Burlington, mortgage deed for sS, GOO. Recently Mary Moran was arrested and fined $50 and costs in the city court for keeping a house of shady reputa- tion at 63 Fair street. Subsequently,
 the owner of the property, Edward Burlington, was arrested under the stat
 ute which provides penalty for the l owner of any building to rent it for i'm moral purposes. Burlington was charged with renting house for house of ill fame," pleaded guilty to the charge in the city court and fined SlOO and costs,
 which he paid.
 Now comes the real estate portion of the transaction. The deal was entered l into Wednesday when Burlington deed. ed to Mary Moran the land and build. ings thereon situated, bounded souther. ly by Fair street, easterly by land fifty feet, formerly owned by Samuel Higgins, northerly forty-two feet by
 land formerly, owned by John Mantle and westerly by land formerly owned by Newman Trowbridge, back to Tai, street. The price is not specified in the instrument, but simultaneously with this was filed another, mortgage deed for sS,000 on the same property from Mary Moran to Edward Budding. ton.
 The result of this transaction will be that while Burlington still retains a large financial interest in the property he cannot be arrested again and fined as he is no longer the owner of the property, Hereafter Mrs. Moran car continue to run notorious house there, of she so desires. and if arrested can only be fiued for keeping house of i'll fame" while no one can be fined for renting IL '. itxI..ts1a.s4lasf.fsa, k k sa,-

 At the weekly meeting of the board of finance yesterday afternoon several important petitions were considered and adverse action taken in executive ses- sion on each. Fire Commissioners Par sons. stannard. Mcdonald and Walker and Superintendent of Fire Alarm Smith and Fire Marshal Hubbard were present and strongly urged the peti- ton Of the Ire department for an ap- propriation Of 5000 with which to place the Ire alarm and police alarm wires underground.
 They claimed that this was an urgent necessity and should be done at once. especially as the telephone company was at present opening the streets to bury some of It's own wires and the work could all be done at the same time. The members of the board de- cided that they had no money with which they could appropriate and con sequently decided against the petition CTS. They also refused to grant permis- sion to the fire department to trans fer money from one account to another.
 A written request from the lamp de partment for an extra appropriation of $l.000 was also received and consid- cred. Adverse action was also taken on this petition on the ground of lack of funds.
