1t is understood that the Rutland rail-
road desires to use what is known as "The
Patch" at the north end OF the village for
new side tracks. The inhabitants of the
seven houses there have been induced to
locate elsewhere and some have moved to
the new houses on Hyde street. Five of
these houses were built about the time the
road was, some 50 years ago.
An addition, giving room to both the
upper and lower story, is being built at
the north end of Mrs. Horace Adams
house on Atkinson street. Some other
changes are also to be made to enlarge the
upper tenement, which, when completed,
will be occupied by Frank Adams and fam
lily, who for the past two or three years
have been living on Webb's Terrace.

Wednesday evening the young men o.
the Congregational church catered very
successfully to the wants Of large num-
Der of people who were present at the

been prepared for the patrons of the feast
who surmised from the excellence of the
repast that the young men must have al

feminine friends. After the supper came
a short program, consisting Of reading

Ada Williams and a couple of well-ren
dered selections by the ladies' quartet.
