 James Kenelly, who fell down stairas and injured himself badly g short time 5 ago, ls much Improved. but is still quite
 weak He has not yet recovered his
 mental balance and his mind wanders badly at times. Dr. Stearns of Hartford,
 an expert on brain troubles, in consulta- tion with Dr. Smith, examined the case g few days ago. It is thought that when the patient regains his health and strength he may recover from the mental ailment. s A meeting of those interested in an
 electric road from Warren to the Con- ) necticut line through Wales and Brook t field was held at Warren this morning. : The plan is to build the proposed road at r once and later to extend through Stafford and connect with Hartford. As he same
 parties are interested in the new road 3 who secured the Warren and Spencer and 8 the Southbridge lines there seems to be a T probability that the plan will be carried 8 out.
 . MR. EDITOR II see by last weeks : Press that some man wants the select e men prodded. While this is not a new
 want, few words in answer to the con- I munication may not be out of order, as
 Old Roadmaker" makes one or two P misstatements and shows ignorance of Q the possible action of the selectmen that g is lamentable. He wants the roads all
 repaired by tn middle of May. The
 town at rbssos meeting voted to buy t teams and work them all summer, as the s custom has been in former years. If
 < Old Roadmaker "~wants different sys-
 tenn adopted, the place for him to speak s his piece is at town meeting instead of D communicating with the newspapers.
 Ta soiectmen have had no instructions :. froffl the town to work the roller on the : dirt roads, and will not do so until they
 receive such instruction. Old Road
 maker" evidently wants work com menced on the roads right away, and is 8 little slow, as work was commenced sew , eral days before the communication ap-
 peared. The office hours of the select. 7 men for being tarred and feathered atN from a. m. to ii p. m., and it will be
 we'll to have several healthy " Old Road
 makers" in the party when the job is done. Another point, why not sign your
 name when you pose as a critic? MYRoN W. LEONARD.

Wiley having oc 70 o cured in Springfield last Saturday. if The first of the Episcopal services wal ,s held at the town hall last Sunday after ,, noon, and considering that 1t was thu first, the congregation was fair one d there being over fifty attending.

 One of the most important real estat,
 transactions of the year has been the pur .d chase of the Moulton residence by A. D I'd Cady. We believe that MT. Cady has no IS yet decided as to his plans in regard tC ID his late purchase, whether he will mak , it into two tenements, or let it remain a 1, at present. Probably he will remode O the stable somewhat and perhaps nov n the stock building little more to thu
