our efforts to the utilization OF human
waste and apply ourselves to the training
and saving of the young from the tyranny
OF a debaSed organization and the con-
taminating blight of a pernicdous environ
ment.

been led to attribute the increasing evils

The engineer was then compelled TO light

into the car. When admission was
gained the robbers at once directed their
attention to the strong box. Five sticks

charge was insufficient and another one
with a larger capacity was used The

car and threw the safe 40 feet After

bers commanded the train crew TO remain
quiet and no harm would be done them

In the presence OF three newspaper men
and one lone taxpayer. that august body
known as the honorable town council,
with III. s. Babcock to fix the seal OF
approval on their official acts, met In
the town hall last evening and granted a
man or two from the vicinity of Constitu-
ton hill in this city permission TO come
into the town and buy what old rags and
bottles could be found for sale.
The council met for the purpose OF taxi
ing action on the application OF the liquor
license Of Byron r. Cheney. who, accord
Ing TO the latest tax book, is assessed
upon real estate to the sum OF $4,000,
which is about twice the sum credited to
the four members OF the board present
last evening.
While there are many OF the citizens
who would prefer that no liquor licenses
should be granted they claim that Mr..
Cheney should get license in pref
erence TO a resident OF Federal hfll In
the city. who has a, hotel and liquor
license in this town and granted by these
same men.
When the question OF the license came
up Mr.. Cady. stair builder and mem-
ber Of the council. who has known Mr..
Cheney for a dozen years or more and
has been employed by the latter on more
than one occasion. In a most innocent
way said: Lets see, that's the license
that was advertised. wasn't it?"
Some one was kind enough TO say
Yes" so Mr.. Cady made a motion that
the applicant be given leave to with
draw.
Mr.. Champlin was ready TO second the
motion and IL was passed.
The citizens claim that the town could
md ptnty Of ways 10 spend the $500 that
Mr.. Cheney would be obliged to pay for
a license, and that he is far more en-
titled TO IL than some who are now doing
business not many yards away from the
property that he owns.
The only other item OF importance
transacted was that permission was
given the Rhode Island company to in
stall turnout on Pawtucket avenue
