PETER BROOK.
II stu Figures Prominently in the Kettle
Brook Damage Case.

Inc Kettle brook commissioners,
Judge e, c. Bumpus, William Whiting
ana George E. Evans, came to Worces.
ter yesterday to make an inspection of
the territory through which the brook
hows. Before the start was made an
INFORMAL discussion took place at the
city hall between CoL w. S. B. Hopkins,
representing the city, and e. l..
Vaughan, representing the petitioners.
IL was precipitated by Mr.. Vaughan,
and the subject which caused the dis
cusslon was Peter brook, which was a
source of trouble during the hearing.
The petitioners claimed during the
hearing that Peter brook. IL left alone
would naturally flow into Kent's pond.
which means that the city's liability
would be greater, as it would have to
pay Tor water the brook brings down.
The claim of the city was that the
brook would flow into Waite's reser-
voir II left alone. 1t was stated dur
ing the discussion yesterday that cul
vertS were choked up to affect the flow
OF the stream. Each side intimated the
choking up Of the brook was not in its
interest.
Another mooted point was the right
or the Leicester district to take 200, 900
Ballons a day from the Kettle brook
shed. Whether the conditions under
which the right was obtained have
been violated is matter Of dispute. If
the right was violated and the Leices-
ter district had no right, the petition
ers claim Worcester is responsible for
the 100000 gallons. If the right held
good, the mill owners would probably
seek payment from the Leicester water
district.
After the hearing yesterday the COM
misSioners went on their tour of in
spection, accompanied by Mr.. Vaughan
and Walter E. Hassam. The commits
sioners will remain in Worcester for
several days. They viii probably make
a tour of the brook from the Darling
shoddy mill to the Stevens grain mill
below Quinsigamond village.
The special purpose of the trip is to
inspect the stream on the claims of
pollution Of the waters. One of the
commissioners said yesterday the
awards Of damages might be expected
within a month.

LADIES' HE BREW AID.
Feast of Purim Observed
With Dancing.


Recalling the deliverance az their
forefathers in the olden time through
the intercession of Esther, the Hebrew
people of this city and several out of
town friends celebrated the advent of
Purim in horticultural Hall, last eve
ming, by q masquerade ball.
The celebration of the event was in
keeping with it's character. Every
thing was of a Joyful nature. None
were too old or too young to partici-
pate in the celebration of Purim and
keep alive the story of the drawing
of the lots by which the people of their
faith were condemned to death.
The ball last evening was under the
management of the Ladies' Hebrew
Aid and Literary Association, which for
several years past has taken unto it
The Worcester spy. [volume] (Worcester, Mass.) 1898-1904, 1899-02-24

self the anniversary of the delivery, to
make joyful observance and do honor
to the woman who was the deliverer
of her people.
For several weeks the ladies of the
society and the male members who
were entrusted with portion of the
work of preparation, have been ex-
tremely busy. The result of their la
bors were apparent at q glance into
the hall last evening.
In point of numbers, one standard by
which success is measured, the ball
goes on record as the best the organiza-
ton ever conducted and that is say
ing a great deal, for the Ladies' Aid
Society has managed several events Of
this kind which have reflected great
credit on its ability.
The party could not be improved on.
The older generation attended in num-
bers, and sat in the galleries and
rows of chairs around the hall, taking
pleasure in watching the enjoyment Of
the younger people. The latter had
the polished floor and sweet music to
keep them merry and with fantastic
costumes and identity hidden by

ing in his cell with all his clothes OF.
and he refused to put them on or go

A Pretty Window.

The palm in the art of window
decorating this season belongs to
the decorator at the Big Cash Store
of w. o. DustOn. The central
window of this great store has re-
Gently been trimmed IN all the col
Ors of the season. Two columns
from near the center rise midway
to the top. One is draped in blue
with a white ice wool fascinator,
the other in red with a black fasci-
nator. Two scrolls in black vel
vet, bound in yellow, extend from
the tops of the columns to either
side of the window.
A wax figure wearing a pearl
gray nat, light blue silk waist and
crepon skirt occupies the center.
On one side of the window is a
pattern of the navy blue Venetian
cloth with gloves to match. On
the other side is the same goods in
gray with the corresponding gloves.
A pattern of the favorite color,
castor, is also noticed. Perhaps
that which rivets most closely the
eye of every woman who chances
to pass, is the pattern of lovely
pink silk over which is thrown a
netting of sequince.
Fur muffs and collarettes are in
evidence.
Jardeniers of palms lend beauty
to the scene.

A Varied Stock. Carefully Selected and
AdvantsReousIy Displayed.


The most attractive business
house in the city during the past
week was the new store OF j. J.
Dabbs at the w. A. Harris old
stand, South side of Main street.
With that business pluck and abil-
ity that merits and wins success
Mr.. Dabbs has begun his business
career in Ardmore. His first annual
opening of fall and witner goods
was given Wednesday, Thursday
Friday and Saturday of last week,
and his store has been a favorite
during this time for the lovers of
artistic designs in millinery. His
stock of millinery is the largest in
the city and the lady trimmers en-
ployed by him possess the greatest
skill in making to order becoming
and stylish hats.
Besides the millinery that is in
cluded in the stock of this new and
popular stock is a splendid array
of handsome ready made skirts and
waists. In this line no other house
is more thoroughly equipped to
cater to the public than Mr.. Dabbs'.
Another very noticeable feature of
the store is the big display of shirts
and ties. They are in all the latest
colors and designs and when you
have purchased your tie or shirt at
this store you may rest assured
that 1t is in keeping with the pre-
vailing fashions.
His line of capes and wraps are
unexcelled in Ardmore for reason
in price and for qualities that wear
