No Decision as to Closing of Palace
 Street.-The Lamp Question
 A meeting of the residents of the bor- ough of West Haven was held in the town hall last night to take action on the request of the Fair Haven and Westville Railroad company for the closing of Palace street. which is locat- ed between the park and the grove at Savin Rock. The meeting was well at tended and much interest was mani fested in the matter in question. MT. Punderford appeared for the railroad company and stated, among other things, that the closing of the street would be very beneficial to the residents and that the road would not be partic- ularly benefited. If the same was closed much liability to accidents would be avoided
 Ex- Warden Peck did most of the talk ing for the residents and he opposed the proposed closing, he said, of the fact that the street is much much needed for ia. thoroughfare. No action was taken, and there was no motion for future meeting.
 At the conclusion of this meeting an- OtneT WAS HeIu anu tlle iidttel ol llSHl- ing was taken up. It is stated that the town can save money by the adoption of another system of lighting than that in use at present. and that they have plant of their own. A representative of a concern in Cleveland was present and talked for some time on the efficiency and economy of the system which hls firm manufactures. He has a couple of exhibition lamps on the West Haven green, and they are said to be very good.
 The meeting finally adjourned until next Wednesday night, when the lamp question will be again taken up and perhaps threshed out for the year,

The north side entrances hereafter will
be for the family only and guests of an
entirely personal and private nature. A
great deal of money has been spent In
making over the historic rooms that have
been open to the public from time imme-
mortal. But In addition to this there has
been thousands of dollars expended in
the underpinning and foundations where
it cannot be seen by the public. This
was rendered necessary by the insecure
condition of the building, which for some
time has been a source Of concern to
those who were acquainted with it, and
which made it necessary to exercise great
precaution at public receptions and other
functions where large crowds focked to
the White House. The living rooms Of
the Presidents family have all been gone
over and the gloomy old house has been
made habitable for those who by custom
are compelled to live in it for terms of
four years at time.
