KETTLE BROOK CASE.
Mill Owners Arrive at a
Conclusion in the
Matter.

There may or may not be an inn
mediate settlement to the Kettle brook
controversy within week. At any rate
the mill owners will make an attempt
to have the matter of awards settled
satisfactorily to them.
The counsel for the mill owners have
been doing some big work in the mat
ter and have arrived at a conclusion
which they have proposed to the city,
through Solicitor Arthur p. Rugg.
1t is that the city add to the awards
already made up by the commission,
$4,000, for which the mill owners agree
to give up their rights to the waters Of
Peter brook, which otherwise would
always prove to be bone of conten-
ton.
This proposition will be made to the
city government at it's next meeting
Monday night City Solicitor Rugg
would not say whether he was ready
to put the proposition before the meet
ing in the form of a recommendation
that it be accepted or not. He is rather
reticent about the whole affair and Will
say little or nothing. He has gone on
record, though as having said that
since the city had filed its appeal with
the courts it held the whip hand and
did not propose giving away anything
that was not to it's liking.
The mill owners, he says, are not in a
position to dictate, but the city Is, and
it seems as though the city stood for
giving up as little as possible.
Ernest H. Vaughan, of the firm OF
Blackmer e. Vaughan, counsel for the
mill owners, is anxious to have the
mattered settled before he leaves this
country for his European tour for the
summer and has secured the names OF
all but one of two or the mill owners
to the contract, calling for an addi-
tional 500, 900 to the awards already
made by the commission. The latter
sum will be divided among the several
mill owners interested in the case in
ratio to the sums given each by the
commission. W
Most people not directly interested
in the case seem to think that the re-
cent proposition offered by the mil
owners counsel is a fair one and think
the city ought to accept it. 1t means
the saving of expenses of long ano
tedious litigation before the courts u
both sides Interested, and forever set
ties the matter of the ownership OF
the waters of Peter brook, which. az
things now stand, looks as though II
would be a constant source of conten-
ton between the mill owners ana the
city of Worcester.

LITTLE LEFT TO BE DONE.
carpeuters and Painters Putting on the
Finishing Touches.

Workmen were busy yesterday at the
new court house putting in position the
new metallic furniture for the registry
of deeds Office in the new building. The
furniture comes from the Cornell Com
pany of New York, and consists OF 40
cases, in all.
The furniture is in the line of stacks

ed a handsome shade of green ana
decorated with gilt trimmings. II Is
expected that it will take several weeks
to complete the work of setting them

tically completed. but it will take some
DAYS for the carpenters and painters
to put on the finishing touches Inc

A SECRET SOCIETY.
Holy cross Seniors Organize One and Call
1t the "styx Assembly"

Holy Cross College has a brand new
society, and for the first time in It's his
tory it has a secret society, or one
which partakes of the nature of secret
societies as they go in the college
world.
The society Is to be known as the
"Styx assembly" The membership IS
limited to the students of the senior
class Just now, not all the members
of that class belong, for it has but re-
Gently been organized. But before the
end Of the term all will have Joined.
This new organization has purpose.
1t partakes, besides it's secrecy, OF the
nature of the endless chain societies
which are now so popular among the
students of the colleges of this coun-
try. 1t is the intention of the members
to perpetuate a more firm relation be-
tween them after having passed
from beneath the shelter of their alma
mater, and they propose to do this by
means of the endless chain series OF
letters. That is, one student Will write
to another, and the recipient of the let
ter will tack on little something to it
and forward it to the next student in
line, and so on until the letter finally
returns to the first writer, who in turn
again begins a second letter which
again makes the round. This Will be
kept up as long as possible. The letter
writing will not begin till the end of
the fifth year after graduation, and as
each letter has completed the circle, 1t
is filed away by the secretary of the So
ciety for future reference as a class
history.
The society will be perpetuated each
year at the college by the succeeding
senior class whose members will be-
come its members. 'f5t
What the officers of the society are is
not known, and here begins its secrecy.
They are, however supposed to be j..
Fl. Gainor of Providence, r. J., Thomas
A. McCole of Freeland, Pa, Justin w.
Corcoran of Pittsfeld, and John T.,
Cassidy of Corning, N. Y. The other
charter members of the society are
Martin ]. Hennessey, Charles j. Con-
way, Francis ]. Maxwell Edward j.
Hussey and John e. Wickham. The
recently elected members are Francis
H. Doyle and A. c. Stable.
Up to the time Of graduation the
class will hold weekly meetings form
ing plans for the continuance Of ne
good fellowship which now exists be-
tween the members.

Andre at Wor-
ter Theatre This
Evening.
GIVEN BY HOLY CROSS STUDENTS
Young Men are Thoroughly
Ready for the Task Set
Before Them.

Holy Cross College Thespians will
occupy the boards at the Worcester
Theatre this evening, presenting the
famous historical play, "Major Andre,
the British Spy"
For three months the students with
.hlstrionic proclivities have been zeal
ously p, pairing for the presentation
of this piece of revolutionary history In
drama form, and have reached high
stage of perfection under the care of
Rev. C. C. Jones, S. j., director of
dramatics at Holy Cross. He has
worked hard to place the play, with
all it's picturesqueness before the pub
lie, and there is promise of gratifying
success.
The story of the play carries one
back to revolutionary days 1t opens
with a scene in a hotel at New York,
in IT'S with Sir Henry Clinton review
ing the situation of England and the
colonies. In this scene is also an
nounced the plot. A letter from Bene-
dict Arnold is read offering the surren-
der of West Point.
Mai. Andre is summoned to carry the
The second act recalls the meeting of
Arnold and Andre, the latter's capture
and of the escape of the traitor. In
this scene the great generals Of the
war, including Washington, are pre-
scented.
Act portrays Andres trial, with
Nathaniel Green presiding. This act
also narrates the pleadings Of Andres
father for his son and Of the sentencing
VT aaf ia etrnnp
one and shows the spirit with which
Anolds perfidy is characterized by
the English soldier, Col Carleton, who
resigns his command when Arnold is
placed under him.
The last act tells the story of Andres
last night on earth; his sadness at the
approach of death; the entreaties of
his father to force him to fly; of Tai
IMAGES entry with a message for An
is hanged, after having been refused
a soldiers death His last words were;
Tell the world 1 died as became a
brave man"
The cast has been carefully selected,
and though sickness and death among
the families of the students at first
selected have made necessary a
change here and there in the dramatis
personae, yet it is strong The latest
acquisition is right fielder OReilly Of
the base ball team, who will assume
the role Of Gen. Knyphausen. O'Reilly
is an actor of no mean ability and has
a striking stage appearance.
The advance sale of seats has been
excellent and large crowd is expected,
but there are desirable seats to be Sc
cured at the theatre today
Word was received announcing that
the Harvard base ball team would
come to Worcester this evening.
They will be accompanied by large
delegation of students, who will attend
the play. The colors Of both colleges
will figure in the decorations. ...

THE MoULDERs' UNION.
The Strikers Not Satisfied With Condi-
tons at Rice, Barton & FaIes'.

The meeting of the Moulders' Union
in Labor headquarters last evening was
warmer than the weather. Seven APP
plications for membership were re-
ceived, and the result Of the arbitration
board session in Cleveland was mapped
out.
The conditions at Rice, Barton &
Fales' foundry are such that the union
Is far from satisfied. The firm is pay
ing on an average more than $2.75,
which the union demands, but Will not
recognize the union, and consequently
can get no union men in good standing
to work in the foundry. Members of
the union believe that the firm is pur-
suing a policy which in the end will be
costlier than months of hard fighting
in a strike. The union men who de-
serted the strikers say that the firm is
giving better wages and treating the
men more fairly than any foundry in
the city. The force of moulders in the
foundry is about half the usual one, as
only IS men are at work.
