Town Sergeant Maynard Paid
an Early Visit to Waterford
Pool Room Yesterday.

After an early morning visit to the big
room at Waterford. yesterday. Town Ser
geant Herbert f. Maynard of North
Smithheid reports that he found nothing
there and that he will so report to the
town council AS 1t is a well known fact
In Waterford that operations usually
commence about p. m. after the express
from Boston arrives this early morning
visit OF the town sergeant is causing
quite a little comment. Af
The town sergeant when asked IL he
would make an afternoon call is credited
with the statement that he would have no
call TO go there as he had made his inves
tigation
The matter is closed said Mr. May
nard unless Sylvester Aldrich does
something, and | will make my report to
the town council on the last Saturday in
September. | will tell the council that I
found no evidence OF psol room existing
In Waterford
In a letter to a woonsocket paper Mr.
Maynard states. About the warmest
subject ever got mixed up in is the sup
posed existence OF an alleged horse pool
room at Waterford and I would like just
space enough 10 express myself on the
matter.
II very much regret these vile attacks
on the governor Of the state and upon the
HltHiptts VI the tOW0 COUNCIL OF NOftn
Smithheld
The whole thing is ascribed TO poll
tics pure and simple, by the newspapers.
Now, | want II distinctly understood that
the members OF the town council have
nothing whatever TO do with this alleged
horse pool room
The town sergeant is the one and the
only one who is to blame for its exist
ence 0f " does exist

tics. They are business ventures and they
are managed by very shrewd business
men II YOU are going 10 blame. blame the
right one. IL is n shame that a town mat
ter like this should he so exaggerated and

the next regular meeting of the council.

SO surprised was p j Hoelerer, an un-
dertaker OF No 1s9 Ludlow street, when
a caller addressed him in this manner
Monday. that he laughed as II it were a
great joke
The speaker was Emmanul Augred who
for eight years had lived just across the

sad the odors from his room when he
was making his candy were unbearable
and told him II he did not cease they

As the undertaken laughed the old man

and then took ms watch from his pocket
and put II beside them The undertaken
noticed the man had a small glass hidden

candy maker for many years he imagined
II was an idle threat
"Oh. go home and rest he said. You

"Ah want you to do is to bury me. :"
said the other; so / will say goodby

Then he left the place. Something
caused the undertaken 10 go 10 the door
and gaze after the man. He was a few
yards away. and as the undertaken look
ed he raised the glass to his lips drank.
threw the glass away and then sank to
the pavement
Some OF the neighbors who had said
they would complain about has candy
making ran to his aid. CARED him TO his
room and sent for a doctor But. when
the physician arrived the candy maker
was dead. He had taken enough of the
poison TO kill several men.
His body was at the undertaker's last
night: his watch and the insurance
papers were in the desk. But the under
taker was not laughing.
