To KATE RICHMOND:

DEAR MADAME Replying to the
above questions I take the liberty to
speak for the Town Council AS to the
part ii took in the matter. The conf
uunieatiom was received and after con-
sideration il was thought bes; to have
the letter published and attem II 10 get
an expression from the people as to the
pOssihiiity of having the proposition
sdopted. That the CIReNICLE did,
and few if any opinions we're made
known to the members of Town CouD-
ell. either formally or OtherV ise a
copy of the paper with the article
marked was sent to the party in Texas.
No further consideration OF the sub
iert has been had The party or parties
making inquiry have never made any
gpeclfic proposition other than the one
uUblished in their first communication.
If there is anything good to come 10
this to IN by a change of its name, theIe
certainly would not be single ndWid-
ual within its incorporate limits VINO
would for one moment oppose the
change For one am willing to change
the name OF Milford to any respectable
name i'm the whole category az names,
IL bv so doing the town can be made
to grow and prosper in any marked
degree. We need some enterprise that
/ viii bring capital TO the town aud give
employ to our people, fer more than
we need merchants or any business
that will SIMPLY get its existence from
/ the amount of money now in circula'
tion. L trust some of those who may
read these lines may have sutlicienl
interest TO say word or offer sug
eestion ON this subject. The columns
of the CHRONICLE as well as Kate
( RichmOnd's department are open fo
full discussion,
THO. TOWNSEND,
Clerk of Council.

HAS WOMAN ARRESTED

Some days ago Lizzie Brown and
Florence Shenault cnga ged in a wordy
argument which led to more vigorous
proceedings. 1t is alleged that Lizzie
tore great handfuls of hair from Flor
ence's head, and that the latter re-
taliated by "walloping' Lizzie over
the eye.
Then there was some more blows
and hair-pulling. Both women retired
in good order and when their wounds
and bumps had healed the Shenault
woman, under the alias OF Florence
Christensen, swore out warrant
against the Brown woman on a charge
of assault and battery. She was ar
rested today.

are a watch. two chains, several

c. I. Johnson and II. NJ. Redma,
recent arrivals from Northport were
robbed last night by burglars who

that city, ostensibly to attend the
Elks' celebration, but in reality to

Portland, McKibben of Tacoma and

both leagues are preparing to play
their last cards. At the Tacoma
meeting the Pacific Northwest men
will hold q secret confab with Presi-
| dent Sexton of the Western league
| The meeting was scheduled for Sc
attic at first, but it was later thought
best to call the magnates to Tacoma,
where proper secrecy could be main
| tanned.
Probably the next big boxing con-
| test here will occur sometime after
Lent between the winner of the
Fredericks-Lewis fight and Perry
Queenan of Seattle. 1t Is believed the
match would be such a drawing card
that it would require the seating ca
pacity of one of the theaters to ac-
| commodate the attendance. A match
between Fredericks mo Jimmy Britt
of San Francisco is not impossible,
and an effort will also be made to
bring the Corbett- McGovern contest
to this city.
On Friday night the match between
the bowlers of the Spokane Amateur
Athletic club and the Jones e. Dilling-
ham team will take place and the
contest will be watched with interest
by those interested in the sport. The
match will undoubtedly be a goot
one and, as both teams are made VI
of capable players, there is an intense
rivalry.
