For variety of subjects discussed
session of our Town Council probably
equals that of any legislative body on
earth. They had an extra session or
special meeting, on Tuesday evening,
lasting from 5 to 1889 p N. at which.
through reports Of committees or other
wise every corner of the town was talk
ei about. but the subject that came last
the report Of the Finance Committee.
held over from last meeting was prob
ably OF most interest to the public
In apportiouiug the prospective rev
eEues Of the town for this year The
Finance Committee gave the Light
Committee $1,000. and the Street Com
mittee $ll0u. with 500 for bridges.

examining the condition Of those streets
that were injured by the late food, and
it viii need about $4,000 to repair them,
one member of the Street Committee
proposed taking $1,000 Of the Light
Committees money, bat Is the Light
Committee owes $1,000 to the Electric
Light Co. now, that proposition was
antagonized and half hours discus
sion resulted in the determination to
take q popular vote on a special tax for
lighting purposes, next Fall, and IN the
present situation being let rest until
next regular meeting.
Another matter OF general interest IS
the condition of the embankment Of
Centre Ave. on the west side of the
bridge. The wall Is giving away. and
Mr.. NcNamee's house is threatened
VITA destruction. which would mean a
damage suit, and the temporary closing
of the street, but Mr.. McNamee pro
poses selling his lot to the R. r. Co.
