The West Arlington Improvement Club
will meet Thursday evening. This club
Is greatly incensed at a threat that has
been made against them by an official,
and it is expected that the club VIII plan
q defence.
The commission on Cranston street cost
5000, and yet all the small bills for max
ing estimates are not IN. Two commits
sions on Aliens avenue, and two at Gran
ston street at an average cost OF $lOUO,
means f4000-s sum that would go far
toward paving the worst section of Gran
ston street.
Spirited conversation and echoing laugh
ter from q stage coach full of boys and
girls attracts notice as the coach wends
its way morning and evening over Park
avenue. The party consists OF "a girls
and boys from Cranston, knightsville
ana Oak Lawn, on the way to the Gran
ston High School, Auburn.
This scene is new one, for hereto
fore the electric cars and the steam cars
were the conveyances used. The trip for
the KING htsville and Oaklawn pupils oc-
cupied more than an hour, necessitating
an early start, and was also expensive, cost
ing % cents daily for each pupil from
Knightsville and little more for each
Oaklswn pupil.
stage coach run by Mr.. John W. Palmer,
takes about 20 minutes TO make the trip
from KING btsvilie to Auburn, and costs
each pupil from 10 cents per day. The
town pays one-half the mileage, leaving a
total cost per pupil, each day, of cents.
With railroad punctuality, the spacious
coach starts up Park avenue toward the
Knightsville station, picking up q few
pupils on the way. The 800 train adds
the Oaklawn pupils to the number, and
the remaining mem bers OF the party are
taken In at Cranston.
On most any bright morning as Mr..
Palmer is guiding his horses over the
smooth surface OF Park avenue, and the
bass rumbling OF the heavy coach sounds
an accompaniment TO the merry chatter
OF the brightf faced boys and girls, one
might see inside the coach: Misses Ma
bel Chandler, Laura Crooker, Julia S. Ha-
ven, Susie A. Haven, Alice Hopkins, Nell
lie Hines, Annie L. Hunt, Irene L. Pal
mer, Matte Roberts, Grace Searle, Ger
tie Stafford, Ethel II. Yeaw and Messrs.

Edward NJ. Hayes, James Hines. Gar
field Highland, John S. NARROW, Thomas
j. O'Dowd, Thomas A. Prior, Joseph IL.
Roberts, Joseph w. Sullivan, Fred Stone
ana Harry Whitman.
Besides saving time and money, this
method of conveyance IL healthful and
presents social advantages that educate In
a practical way.

THE EXODUS FROM WARREN.

The exodus of mill help from Warren
has already set in. This morning two
families of French-Canadian nationality,
numbering about fifteen persons, boarded
the z O'Clock accommodation train from
Warren to this city, en- route for Canada.
When informed by a NEWS reporter
that the Warren Manufacturing Company
intended to rebuild their plant immedi-
ately, he replied In somewhat broken En-
glish, yet plain enough to be understood,
that he intended TO return to Canada for
the winter, having managed by living
very economically 10 save little money,
by which he said that he and his family
could live longer than they could in this
country, where the bare necessities of life
cost much more than in Canada.
Replying to aNquestion rs to whether
or not he and his family would again re-
turn, he said that he thought II likely
that they would.
When asked IL he thought that others
OF his nationality intended returning to
Canada for the winter, he said that quite
a number had already signifed their In
tention Of doing so, although the major
portion of them, SO he states, will remove
TO Fall River, New Bedford and other
large cotton manufacturing centers.

EAST PROVIDENCE.

1t 10 thought by many now that the
East Providence Water Company will
soon be making proposition TO the
watchemoket FIRE district. There will be
more opposition TO this sale OF this dis
trict than there was to the sale of the
East Providence district. What the pro-
position will be is a mystery, as there is
no wafer privilege or pumping station In
this district. All there Is 10 purchase Is
the pipes and hydrants, with what few
tools the district owns. IL has been
stated that Pawtucket will not make a
new contract with Watchemoket district
when this one expires. IL Is hardly to
be presumed that Pawtucket will be will
ing to lose as good a customer as this
district is, unless some unforeseen causes
come up, or there is some heavy pressure
brought to bear upon the Pawtucket peo-
pie.

and II. GOgrieve. of 200 Broadway.
They caught this curiosity at the Rig.

was puzzled ut It, None like It has ever
been seen here before. 1t Is claimed,
but one old sailor says that he saw one
In distant sea nineteen years ago ana
that 1t was called the hoghsh. The
head Of the fish strongly resembles II
hog, and the flesh looks like pork. There
are three tail fins. but they are unlike
those Of the ordinary fish. The front
part Of the curiosity Is deep blue In
color and the rear Is a bright yellow.
These colOrs are SO pronounced that ut
first sight they appear to have been put
on with a brush. When 1t was caught
there We're several other hues, but
these disappeared, and the blue and
| yellow We're fading when 1t was
brought to the Times Democrat Office.
Mr.. Markell said that the fish was
swimming on Its side. like founder,
In the reeds nearly half mile from
the bridge when he saw 1t. 1t would
not bite the bait, but nibbled at 1t, so
he was compelled to hook 1t by sud
den jerk of the line. When the gentle
men left the Office they expressed their
intention Of having 1t frozen In block
Of ice and exhibiting 1t In front Of the
