COUNTY FINANCES.
Annual Reports of Treasurer and
Commissioners.
Interesting Figures Showing What Was
Done Last Year and How Much
It Cost To 90 1t.

The reports of County Treasurer Ed
ward A. Brown and the county commits
sioners have been received from the
printer, Charles Hamilton, and comprise
SO pages of interesting statistics of
the county expenses. The reports are
the first to be published in accordance
with the acts of 1897.
Among the items of expenditure are
those for clerical assistance. In the clerk
of the courts office, the cost Of clerical
assistance was $4S03; probate office,
$1755; register of deeds, Worcester,
S6258O2; Fitchburg, $146129; indexing
office 13,30456. The clerical service in
the office of the treasurer has been but
$625, and that for a period of 10 months,
and it is noticeable in this connection
that Treasurer Brown has the most
economically managed office Of any
county treasurer in the state. The coun-
ty treasurer has had but one assistant
during the year. and this clerical assist
ance but a portion of the time
The salary list comprises: Col. Theo-
dore S. Johnson, clerk of the courts,
$685. 80; william r. Harlow, assistant
clerk, $4,000; Henry G. Taft, Emerson
Stone and George w. Cook, county com
missioners, each $3.50; Harvey B. Will
der, register of deeds, $3250; Edward A.
Brown, treasurer, $2200. The fees from
the clerk of the courts have been $685.
A; register of deeds, Worcester, $11,557.-
so. Labor at the house of correction at
Worcester netted the county $477610,
and at Fitchburg, S3367.96. The cost of
the central district court has been $13,-
7.7S
The report of the county commission
ers pays attention to the highways and
states course to be pursued, remarking
that 'all Of the relocations mentioned
were made substantially upon old lines.
They were all applied for by the petit
TONERS, and made by the commissioners
for the purpose Of establishing boundary
lines that had, by time, become uncer-
tain. Surveys were made, and perma-
nent stone monuments were imbedded
in the ground at the beginning and end
ing, and al all angles. In some instances
narrow strips of land were taken for the
purpose of Strengthening or widening
the way No grading or work of con-
struction was ordered in any of the re-
locations. In fact, the work mainly con-
sisted in the survey and setting the
monuments which, by order of the com
missioners, was done at the expense OF
the town or city. There being no other
work to complete, no time was fixed Tor
such completion. No highways or parts
of highways during the year past have
been laid out under PROVISIONS OF law
authorizing assessment of betterments,
and, such being the case, Of course no
reimbursements as betterments have
been made to the county"
A full list of the petitions presented
before the board is given, with brief
history of the court house competition,
and an itemized account of the expendi-
lures of the state highway commission
in Worcester county. The latter report
is as follows:

THEY WANT THEIR MONEY.
Misses Paul and NuttalI Anxious to Get
the Prizes Won in Ticket Contest.

The members of the Union Cycle Club
had ticket selling contest in
connection with their dance in
Father Mathew Hall Friday eve
ming, and thereby hangs a tale.
The prizes the club offered to the two
young ladies selling the greatest num-
Der Of tickets were $50 and $25 respec-
lively, but the successful contestants
have yet to receive their money, and be-
lieve their chances of ever getting it
are decidedly small
AT the dance it was announced that
Miss May Paul was first with $40 tick
cts, while Miss Nettie Nuttall had dis
posed of 1856 of the bits Of pasteboard,
and so was entitled to the second prize
of $25. The crowd applaudei the efforts
of the two young ladies', and suggested
many ways in which they could spend
the coin. But as yet the prizes have not
been forthcoming. and applications to
the president of the club meet with very
little encouragement.
1t seems that the cycle club encoun-
tered a counter attraction in the Nut
shells prize dance, and so the cyclers
did not have so large an attendance as
they had desired Instead of selling $40
and 3S5 tickets as announced, Misses
Paul and Nuttall disposed OF only 70
each The president now asserts that as
neither sold 200 tickets the club does
not intend to give them the prizes.

FREE FROM DEBT.
Rev. DIR. Tuttle's Plan w orks
Well at Union Church.
Several Hundred Dollars More Than the
Amount Needed Already
Pledged.

DR., John E. Tuttle's skill as a financial
leader and church debt raiser was fully
demonstrated Sunday morning, when ne
announced to his congregation that
more money than was needed to cover
the debt of Union Church had been
raised and a surplus would remain after
paying the debt. The entire sum raised
to the present time is $50, 746, all Of
which has been raised in just three
weeks time, and more is expected The
debt is $4,000.
Three weeks ago Sunday, DR.. Tuttle
announced to his church the fact that
he intended to accomplish this thing.
He said already two large contributions
had been made to him, and announced
scheme which would not prove bur-
densome by which the money was to be
raised. He promised to regard all con-
tr!butions made to him as confidential,
so that the man of small means would
feel at liberty to give the sum he could
afford, and not be Influenced in the
slightest degree by tine sum given by his
neighbor
To this plan the church has responded
with greatest loyalty, as will be seen by
the figures above given. The fact that
Sunday was the first anniversary of the
occupancy of the new church, made the
matter of clearance of debt doubly well
come to the parish
DIR. Tuttle in his sermon next Sunday
morning will give a few facts relative
to his work in raising this fund. The
parish feels that DR.. Tuttle in his one
year and two months pastorate has ac-
complished a valuable work, and con-
gratulate themselves upon the results
of so successful a campaign

MRS. c. H. HUTcHINs.
The Announcement of Her Death viii
Come AS a Shock TO Many Friends.

The announcement of the sudden
death, Sunday afternoon, of Mrs. Eliza
Evelina Hutchins, wife of C. Henry
Hutchins, president of the Crompton &
Knowles loom works, will come as
sudden shock to large circle Of friends
throughout the city. Mrs. Hutchins has
always enjoyed good health. She was
taken Ill early Sunday morning and died
few minutes before five in the after
noon. Her illness was not considered
critical, but she suddenly breathed her
last. Mrs. Hutchins was so years of
age. For years she has been an earn
est worker in Piedmont Church, and her
many acts of kindness have endeared
her to all with whom she has come in
contact. She took a keen interest in
the Congregational Club meetings and
was a member Of the Woman's Club.
She leaves husband and two chin
dren, Arthur K, a student at Worces-
ter Academy, and Helen NJ. a pupil at
DalZells.
Mr. Hutchins was in New York on a
business trip at the time of his wife's
death, and was unable to reach home
until o'clock this morning owing to
lack of trains. He was notified imme-

ton is Of great benefit to us. Out of 80
arbitrations in the world, America has
amicably settled At Of them.
F1fth-There is much to elicit the he
roic element of character without which
we would have no hope of enduring.
These opportunities are found not in
war; but in the -abnegation of hos
pital life during the rage of epidemics,
heroic deeds of firemen and other pub
lie servants. Therefore, heroism is in
culcated within us.
Sixth-The separation of church and
state Is of providential ordering. The
obvious and unmistakable lesson of his
tory is that their union tends to the cor
ruption of the church and tyranny in
the government.
Seventh-The seventh foundation is
the underlying one we have already
considered somewhat-the one expressed
by Moses in the text. Religion is our
reliance Conscience is our guard. The
church and school are our allies. Prayer
is our resource. If we forget God, we
shall surely perish. Our only hope is
in the God of nations.
