Work on High Street Will be
Commenced at Once by
Public Works Board.

Have Anything to Do With

VETERAN FiREMENS MUSTER.
Dexter Street Needs Attention From the
Committee on Highways Party by
Ladies' Auxiliary Lost Her Cape.

Now that the High street matter has
come to head 1t Is the intention OF the
Committee on Highways and the Board Of
Public Works to Immediately take steps
to improve that thoroughfare. The veto
message of His Honor Mayor Gottschalk
acted as an incentive for the joint stand
ing Committee on Highways to bring the
Interstate officials to a realization OF the
fact that the city of Central Falls owns Its
streets and cannot be dictated to by for
eign corporation. The message has accom-
plished its object-namely, to compel the
aforesaid company to obey the mandates
of the City Council.
Since the veto message was sent to the
City Council the railroad officials have
placed their portion Of the road In proper
condition, and now the work of repairing
the remainder of the road can be started
Immediately The condition OF this
thoroughfare has long been menance to
public travel, and it has often been Won
dered that there have not been more
accidents. From Central street to Newell's
foundry deep gullies have been cut in the
road, in some places to quite depth, and
1t required careful navigation for driver
with a light team and heavy load to pass
over its surface without meeting with an
accident.
Twelve thousand dollars has been ap-
propriated for this purpose and as soon as
the resolution passes the Common Council
the work of improvement will be COM
menccd. The street will be put In first
class condition for travel, and this an
nouncement will be pleasant news to all
the citizens in that locality. From Gen.
tral street to the Pawtucket line is not in
as poor condition as the other portion of
the street, yet 1t is proposed to thoroughly
overhaul that portion. The street will be
dug up and foundation stones for good
bottom placed and rolled, after which the
top covering and dressing will receive the
same course of rolling. 1t Is thought that
the improvements will be completed by
the 1st of October.
Dexter Street Needs Repairs.
The recent heavy storm has exposed the
really bad condition in which Dexter street
Is at the present time. Only few days
ago this street was put In first class shape,
but time and neglect have played sad
havoc with 1t. The top dressing and COW
ering have been washed away leaving the
foundation stones In full view and subject
to the wear and tear Of the heavy teaming.

FOR THE BABY.
A Valuable Hint to Every Father and
Mother.

A Valuable Hint to Every Father and
Mother.
There are two kinds of babies In the
world; the kind who have too little nour-
ishment and the kind who have too much.
The first kind of babies starve because
their stomachs are too weak to digest the
amount of food necessary for their growth
and healthful developement and the other
kind are overfed with the result that the
delicate stomach and intestines are in
famed and as every mother knows, thous-
ands OF infants die yearly when warm
weather begins, from stomach and bowel
disorders.
Opiates, soothing syrups and cathartics,
however mild, are not what Is demanded.
Go to the root Of the trouble, assist the
child's digestion, give the little stomach
promptly digest its food and the little one
will thrive end grow and gladden. the
mothers heart.
To give perfect digestion to the child It
Is only necessary to give In q pleasant
form the harmless digestive contained In
the well-known tablets sold In drug stores
under the name Of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets. Stuart's Tablets contain no so
called drugs, but are composed of pepsin,
pure aseptic, fruit acids, starch digestives
and are put up In lozenge form, with
sugar OF milk, very pleasant to the taste
and have been used for years as the safest,
best remedy for any form of indigestion
xnd stomach troubles in adults, but re-
Gently many remarkable cures have been
made In the cases of weakly babies who
failed to grow and thrive as they should.
A Buffalo mother q short time ago
who despaired of the life of her babe was

the child these tablets that she went be-

UP THE VALLEY.
Blackstone Block Presents
a Dreary Sight Today.
Prospect Hill Hose Company Will
Hold a Bake Saturday.
lntercstIug Happenings In the Different Villages
Along the Blackstone Valley.

From o careful estimate It Is thought
that the loss by fire at the Blackstone
Block Monday evening will amount to
$4,000. The building az seen by daylight
presents sorry sight. The roof IL burned
away and the four chimneys stand upright
with nothing to prevent them from topling
over II high wind should arise. The two
upper stories are gutted, but some OF the
partitions remain standing. The sidewalk
Is Uttered with portions of the front of the
building which has fallen away, and the
full baroness of the interior is exposed to
full view.
Possibly something could be done with
the first story; but those conversant In
building work think 1t would be good
policy to tear down the whole structure
aud build new one.
In some Of the reports just credit has not
been given to the Central Falls Fire De-
partment, who were early upon the scene
and to whose fearless efforts Is due, In q
great measure, the heading off Of the flames
from spreading to adjoining proerty.
The building Is insured for $4,000 carry

tual Company, another OF $1,000 in the
Providence Mutual Company, and third
OF $1,000 in the Cambridge Mutual Company.

GETTING READY.

The beginning of the year finds all
Europe active again in military prepar-
alton. The adoption of new field
piece for the French artillery, known
as the "Canet' gun, which is said TO
throw five shrapnel shells a minute,
each containing 800 bullets, and TO
have range of 1000 metres about
4 Is miles, has impelled the German
government TO seek a grant of some
thing like 100000 marks from the
reichstag in order to provide the Ger
man artillery with new field guns in
vented by Krupp, and said TO be even
superior to the ''Canet" weapon. Doubt
less the plan of the French war minis
ter to add new battalions to the infant

that arm of the service by some $4,000
men, will call forth a. counter move of
similar character from the German war
Office. If anybody has been led To be-
lieve that the Alsace-L Lorraine question

of war material on both sides of the

A POP CHANCE.

Georgia has just set an example to
her sister states by passing an anti
trust law which is designed to cover all
cases and TO put an end to the trust
system so far as that state is concerned.
Among other provisions of the law is a
clause which authorizes any person who
may have been injured by a trust to
bring suit for damages in the courts.
AS the Pop legislature of Kansas is
about to enter upon n great career for
the reform of numberless abuses this
Georgia law might serve as a model for
study for.th fellows at Topeka. Trusts
not only extort, but they crush. The
people of Kansas have not only been
bled by the prices established by trusts
but trusts have systematically crushed
out a number of growing enterprises in
Kansas, enterprises which were well es-
tablished and doing well. Trusts are
merciiess and when they cannot close
any competitive concern found within
their field they simply buy it up and
close its doors. TO the hurt and loss of
the community not only but to the det-
riment of the consumer. Put the
clamps on them and afford the injured
to bring suit in the state courts for
damages.
