tically

the bill to provide at the Lowell state
normal school suitable apparatus AFT 4
cost Of $500. Prof Coburn was before
the committee and supported the bill.
The mill tax bill was then taken up
and discussed. Representative Newton
Of Everett was the first speaker. He
said this was a bill drawn to meet tine
objection made by Gov Wolcott in his
veto of the mill tax bill two years ago
This bill proposed to equalize the edu-
cational advantages in the state II
would provide for an education for the
children Of poor" towns as well as the
rich cities and towns. There was q. very
strong feeling in favor Of Lils measure
j. w. Mcdonald, an agent of the
state board of education, called atten-
ton to the inequalities Of the present
system. He said that Brookline, with
1890 pupils had 112 teachers; Quincy
with 4l01 had only lis.
AZ to the distribution Of the corpora
ton tax, he said there were great in
equalities and injustices. Brookline
with $4,000 population got S131,-
900, while BrOckton with 80, 900
got but $4,000 Fall River with
$4,000 got but $4,000, Nahant with
865 got $19,275, Manchester with 1876
population got $21, 900, Lynn with 1900

cester with $4,000 population got but
81 900.

ars. One part of the state including 30
cities and towns have 81, 1850 900 of this
sum, and all the rest Of the state was
valued at s1,340,000 The richer part of
the state, the 80 cities and towns, had
10000 school children, and the poorer
part 100000 The richer part raised
last by taxation for the schools 81, $780,

Woman Can't Vote on
License Question.
RESULT DECISIVE.
House Stood 81 to 81
Against Substituting Bill.

Boston, March 1T was women suf-
frase in the House today, and the gal
leries were well filed with the gentle
sex, who found some interest in the
lengthy debate on the question
whether women should be allowed to
vote on the license question.
If those in the gallery were a unit
on the question Of giving the suffrage
to women, they found cold comfort in
the action of the House, which refused
to substitute the bill for the adverse
report of the committee on election
laws, by the decisive vote of "a to
81
Similar action was taken On the bill
to allow women to vote in municipal
elections, so that, altogether, it was not
an entirely comforting day for the wo-
men suffragists.

commissioner for a fourth term. His
election is especially gratifying to his
friends, because he was the only DEM
ocratic candidate for an important Of
fee who pulled through. His election
more than all, a tribute to the con-
iidence placed in him by the people of
the town, because he has formerly filed
me ONCE of selectman. 1t is an axiom
here that a man cannot serve as select
man and be elected tc another office

DR.. John T. Worcester, who has been
elected to the health board, came to
this town from Bridgewater 10 years
ago. He is prominent as a homeo-
pathic physician. He enjoys the con-

It is said of Samuel Putnam and
George W. Wilson that they have only

auditor, whenever a republican ticket

eountants. Samuel Krauss, the third
member OF the board, is a well-known
and respected German citizen.
Universal regret prevails here today
over the defeat OF Abijah Brown for
constable
He has been candidate for consta,-
pie on the republican ticket for some
~ years. Part Of the time his name ap-
peared upon both republican and dem
ocratic tickets, Mr. Borwn is court Of
hcsr in the district court. The law pro-
woes that the court officer must be a.
constable Of one Of the towns in the
district in which the court Is held.
Mr.. Brown himself constructs the law
IN tais way, and there seems to be no
loophole Of escape.
His name was left of the ticket by
oversight. 1t was added on a repub-
hcan nomina tion paper. This gave the
republicans nine candidates for con-
stable instead Of eight, and the vote
distributed so that four republican can
dldates were defeated. Mr.. Brown was
min tn lowest on the list. He has "a
votes less than his nearest successful
neighbor

COLD STORAGE


the East Florida Ice Manufac-
turing Company, and citizen
who ever takes an interest IN
matters of public need, has just
had completed IN the ice factory
building a cold storage room for
meats, vegetables, and IN fact
anything that Ice will preserve
room capa BILE of caring for
thirty or forty thousand pounds
OF meat at one time. The room
is supplied with mammoth pigeon
holes, arranged all around the
walls; each has been numbered
and will hold five to eight hun
dred pounds of meat. The cold
air pipes are SO arranged that
when the door is closed and the
cold air turned on, the Temporal
ture of the room will in a very
short time be down to the desired
point.
Lew Alexander did the work
and it is one of the best con-
structed rooms of it's klnd IN the
country. The walls are eight in
number. There are four layers
Of water proof paper; twelve
inches of space filled with saw
dust, and a four-inch air cham Der
on each side; the entire wall be-
ing nearly three feet thick and Is
absolutely air proof.
Mr.. Benjamin is now ready to
care for meats of all kinds, and
any other article desired to be
Kept in cold storage
This room was built at consid.
cradle expense and it is to be
hoped that the patronage of the
people will Justify the venture.
The beauty of cold storage is
! that one need not wait for cold
weather to kill their meat, but
may do so at any time, summer
or winter, and place it there
safely.
The expense IS small enough,
practical men say, to justify saw
ing meat IN this manner, as Mr..
Benz amin>s idea is to give the
people the advantage of cold
storage at as slight a cost as will
justify him in maintaining it.
We give herewith Capt. Sam
r. Pyles' formula for preparing
pork for cold storage: "Cut and
trim to perfect shape, leaving
chine bones on hams and blade
bones on shoulders; salt IN the
usual manner; use ten pounds of
salt, two pounds of brown sugar,
two ounces of saltpeter and one
ounce of red pepper to each 100
pounds of pork. After this,
place in a cold storage room.'
In addition to the above men
TONED room, Mr.. Benjamin has
the one used last year, which will
hold several thousand pounds Of
meat, and also the big room in
which the ice is stored.
The Star hopes to see the entire
space filed with meats by the
last Of January, and if our pao-
pie know and appreciate a good
thing it Will be done.
