man will Stop at the Wallace House.
There will be 40 lack of bands here
on Chadwick day to make Rome howl
and the musical part of the enter
tainment will be great. OF course
Rutters will be the finest in the pa
rade but there will be Others to keep
up the excitement. Among those
which have accepted the invitation
in the last few days are bands from
Falrmont, Enterprise and Terra Alta.
The latter will come in with the
company from that place. This or
ganization has just decided TO take
part. They will try to get special
train to bring them and the Piedmont
company with them. In case this
train comes in there will be great
many more people added to the crowds
that will be here. If it does not come
the Terra Alta lads will come in any
way leaving home about three O'Clock
i'll the morning.
The Fairmcnt company hasn't yet
decided whether or not it will come.
We hope that it will get in the push
and help US out as much as it can.
The military part of the parade ought
TO be very large.
General Spillman who is to have
charge of the parade on Chadwick day
will come in day or so before the
affair is TO come off and will make all
necessary arrangements for the con-
duct Of the parade. He will have
rooms at the Wallace House. His
aids have all promised to be here and
this feature of the occasion is already
an assured success.

HON. WIN. L. WILSON
Writes that He Cannot be here on the
10th.

lUtUs
The following letter from Hon.
VIM t. Wilson, President of Wash
ington & Lee University which ex-
plains itself:
WASHINGTON d LEE UNIVERSITY,
LEXINGTON. Virginia,
Sept. %, 1897
Hon. Geo. W. atkinson, and Messrs.
ElhinS, Camden, Scott and WhSte,
Commtttee..
| have the honor to acknowledge
receipt of invitation to be present at
the ceremonies attending the presen-
tation of sword to Captain F. E.
Chadwick, U. S. N, by the citizens
of West Virginia, at Morgantown, on
October 10th, 1899, and regret to
say that it will be impossible for me
to attend. Captain Chadwick well
deserves this honor from the people
of his native state, and, as a West
ginian, share fully in the spirit
which prompts it, adding to my adj
miration for the officer the express
sion of personal friendship for the
man. His whole career as naval
officer has been one of which his fel-
low citizens may be proud,
and his services in the late war were
so honorable and efficient, that we
cannot doubt, if the larger opportu-
mites which came to his ranking
officers had come to him, that he
would have met them with the same
readiness, mastery and success.
| am very truly yours,
VIM. l.. WILSON.

AGAIN AT LOGGERHEADs.

Members of the school committee on
school houses and hygiene, and Charles
I'll Peck, superintendent of public
buildings, are again at loggerheads
The school committee do not enjoy the
criticisms which have been frequently
maze by members of the city council
IN regard to the amount of money
which they ask for every year. 1t has
been common statement among mem
pers or the city council that the de-
mands of the school committe in regard
TO school houses should be curtailed,
The school committeeman consider
th2l Ihey are not entirely to blame, and
they shift some of it to Superintendent
IccK. They have taken no definite ac-
ton yet, but at their last meeting
Monday evening, they all but voted in
raYor of the appointment of superin-
tencent of school houses. They have
dec'ded not to endorse any expenses
made by the public buildings depart
meat. except what they have ordered.
!hey claim they do not countenance all
the repairing work which is being done
on schooi houses, and they also think
theY could have the work done more
economically than it is done at present
wlth the superintendent of public
bNlldlngS having full sway. They say
they can save the salary of a superin-
tendent in a year.
The plan is to have the superintend-
ent work under the direction of the
committee in repairing school houses
II the city council gives them such an
of11clal, they will be willing to shoulder
the plane for excessive expenditures
u, school house repairing, but unless
the city council gives them the official
they refuse TO stand the entire blame.
For the present they have decided they
VIII order all expenditures, or else they
will not endorse them.

TO REPORT
Tomorrow to the
Court.
GRAND JURY'S DUTY.
Is Completed With Seven
More Cases Heard.

The grand jury made good progress
yesterday in the consideration of the
cases which are to be presented before
it for the January criminal term, the
active trials of which begin Thursday.
Yesterday q cases We're heard, which
makes 40 thus far brought to the at
tention of the grand jury. Six cases are
left and these will be finished today, SO
that the grand jury will report to
Judge Hopkins Thursday morning at 10
o'clock.
Among the cases considered yester-
day We're those of Michael G. Calvin
and Thomas Hiney, the motorman and
conductor on the Worcester and Subur-
ban car at the time of the Leicester ac-
cident. These cases were heard yester-
day, and not Monday, as the "Only
blunderer' witlessly stated in order to
be sure of the news. Postmaster Nit
chell and Constable Getchell of North
Grafton, with Inspectors O'Day and
Stone, appeared in the North Grafton
post office burglary case, and the third
important case which was heard was
that of William Woods, bound over
from the district court for man
slaughter

PLUMBING INSPECTION.


John F. Mccartney and John F. Hur-
ley, inspectors of plumbing in Worces-
ter, will go to Boston today to attend
the quarterly meeting of the Massachu-
sets Plumbing Inspectors Association.
which will be held at the Quincy house
in that city. A dinner will be had al
so.
The main topic for consideration at
the meeting is the ACCESSIBILITY of form
irg uniform regulations under the state
law, so that the different cities will
work in harmony. The inspectors act
under statute, but the statute gives
each city permission to make ordin-
ances regulating plumbing, and on ac-
count of this permission the ordinances
and requirements vary greatly. Plumb
Gre going from one city to another are
not only handicapped by the different
variations of the requirements, but at
first are unable to properly accomplish
their work. Worcester is more strict
in it's regulations than the average city
Of the state, so that Worcester men in
working in another city get along we'll.
But plumbers coming from other cities
to Worcester are not able at first to do
the work properly.
1t is with the idea of making uniform
regulations so that this trouble will be
obviated that the meeting today is
called. The annual meeting will be
held In Worcester in June.

tate of Albert Curtis, pending settle
ment among the heirs, for permission

PARKER LIKES 1T.
Brockton System of induces Will Be Adopt
ed BY Worcester Assessors.

ed BY worcester Assessors.
Chairman Amos M Parker of the
board of assessors went to Brockton
yesterday to inspect the system of in
dices which the assessors of that city
have instituted. He returned last even
ing much pleased with the method of
doing the work of the assessors office
without books, and says the method
will ultimately be adopted in the Wor-
cester office.
Capt. Parker was in Brockton as early
as 9 o'clock yesterday morning and he
spent the entire day looking into the
system. He returned last evening full
of praise for the system. When seen by
The Spy man, he said: 1.-THE system is
on the same lines as we use in the Wor-
eester office in the transfer of real es-
tate, but 1T is carried much farther. In
Brockton it is used for poll taxes and
personal property taxes as we'll as real
estate, so that there is no need of books.
1t is an excellent system and will be
adopted by the Worcester office with a
few necessary changes and improve
ments
1T will not be adopted this year, how
ever, for lack of time. The Brockton
assessors could carry it farther than
we because with a board as large as
ours and a city only third the
size they had more time to devote to
perfecting the system.
The system can be placed in OPERA
ton IN the Worcester office next year
without increasing the appropriation
one cent, and after it Is in operation it
VIII save the city hundreds of dollars.
1t will save at least $1,000 a year and
possibly more A reduction in the cleri-
cal service can be made, and money
usually spent in the purchase of books
can be saved.

town AZ years ago, and began his bust
ness career in India. He had a severe
sickness while student at the Worces-

Tudor Ice Company. This resulted in
his taking position at Madras with the
company, which was then sending ice by
salllng vessels to eastern ports. He was
later transferred to Java, and remained
in the east until artificial ice-maxing
