FRUIT PACKAGES.

An agent for the Western Basket and
Manufacturing Co., of Hoquiam, this
state, has made arrangements with the
San Juan Trading Co., to handle their
fruit packages and baskets. A number
of our local fruit growers, last year, used
their five and ten pound baskets for
green prunes with gooG success. The
fruit shows to better advantage in bas-
kets than i'm boxes. Their wood basket
is one of those indispensable articles,
especially where pitchy wood is used.
They also manufacture all kinds of
clothes baskets, hop baskets, market
baskets, etc.

The World Herald, of Fairhaven,
claims that tie Lydia Thompson is
running in the interests of Seattle ana
against Bellingham Bay towns, lnso-
much as she leaves Whatcom at four
in the morning, instead of six as she
formerly did. We can not see the point,
as the Thompson leaves Seattle at two
o'clock at night. Mr.. Thompson says
he is rot running in the interests OF
either Seattle or Bellinghan bay towns
but i'm the interests of the islands, anu

CITY COMPELLED TO PAY
DAMAGES SECURED BECAUSE OF FRRRY PATH CLOSING.

Mulcted for Twenty-six Hundred Dollars
 Consolidated Railroad to Pay Like
 AmOunt-Thomas No Longer Connected
 With City Auditors Office.
 At a special meeting Of the board of finance last evening four of the mem bers of the board, Aldermen Parish and Lambert and Couneilmen Dewell and Rourke were present and Mayor Hen drick presided. The most important business of the evening was the con- sideration of the question as to how an appropriation of about $25OO could be raised with which to pay off judg- ment for that amount secured against the city.
 Several years ago Ferry Path in Fair Haven was closed as a thoroughfare and the residents of the street brought suits for damages against the city and the Consolidated road. The case was carried to the supreme court, where decision was rendered for the residents to recover damages and costs amount ing in the whole to $5,20S.41. Ofa this amount the city is compelled to pay one-half and the railroad company ore- half. After discussion it~was decided to appropriate $2,601,70 and to take this amount from the sum recently paid to the city by the town for the maintenance of the city hall
 City Auditor Brown also called the attention of the board to the fact that on June 12 he had notified George s. Thomas who has been acting as an assistant to the auditor, that his ser vices were no longer required. MT Thomas claimed that he had been enl- ployed by the board of finance and declined to be removed until that body had taken action upon the matter
 January 3, 1895, the board of finance at regular meeting appointed Mir. Thomas a clerk in the department at salary not to exceed $1,000 per annum. Major Brown claimed that the city auditor alone had the right of ap- pointing assistants and based his claim on section 12 of the city charter.
 Corporation Counsel Ely was also present and gave 1t as his opinion that sound and that In effect the board of finance had exceeded its powers when it appointed Mir Thomas a clerk in the department. This seemed to be the opinion of all the members of the board present and while no action was taken on the matter other than to leave it in the hands Of the auditor the re- suit will be that MT. Thomas will no longer be connected with the auditors

A Special Town Meeting of Interest Held at
 New Britain.
 New Britain, June 20.-A special town meeting was held tonight for the pur- pose of acting on the appointment of John H. Peck, who has been principal of the high school here for thirty years. At the last meeting of the school board when the teachers were appointed for the year MT. Peck claimed to be reap pointed The action of the school board in not appointing him to the position he held so long aroused the indignation of many of the citizens and as a result of a petition the meeting was held to- night.
 The town hall was packed and the meeting lasted two hours and half. The members of the board stated that MT. Peck was not progressive enough and unable to maintain proper dfscf- pline in the schools, and 1t was for that reason that he was not reappointed Attrney P. J. Markley, chairman of the board, offered an amendment that the matter be submitted to the citizens at the polls and this was carried by a one third vote. The matter will be settled on Monday, the polls being open from g a. m, until in the afternoon.
 The vote on the amendment was 152 in favor and 264 against.

With one man out, Yale commenced to bat Highlands all over the field, and before the inning was over had made three singles and two home runs, bringing in six runs in all Harvard made two more runs in the ninth, and this was all she could do From Harvard's point of view 1t was the best game the team has put up in Cam bridge this year. and this, too, with second substitute shortstop.
