 The key which Katz used to open the meter is practically the same as the kind used by the Gas company and it was a handmade duplicate which had been filed from another key.

NEW LAW FOR AUTOS.
Now in Effect-some of the Important
 Changes.

Now in Blackstone of the Important
 Changes.
 The new automobile law now in ef- feet contains several sections that are of much importance to automobilists in the state.
 First, autos cannot run more than twelve miles an hour in town nor more than twenty miles outside. Secondly, all machines are to be relicensed and there is to be reassignment of num- bers. It is thought that owners can keep the numbers they have now if they notify the secretary of the state at an early date. The numbers must be placed on the body of cars fore and aft and must be bought from the sec retary of state at Hartford. They are to be sold at cost.
 It is not likely that there will be any prosecutions for violation of this portion of the law for month or so at least
 Another thing, horsemen may signal the autoist to stop if horses show fright and they must do it. The above are the more important points of the new law.

FOR IMPROVED ROADS.
Appropriation of, s459, 900 Made by tn
 Gfafa


 Appropriation of S459,o0o Made by the
 State. .
 Selectmen all oyer the state have re- ceived copies of the highway act res gently passed by the legislature and a circular letter from State Highway Commissioner James H. Macdonald, stating how application for state aid for road work should be made. As the appropriation is $459000 for the next two years, the applications for state aid will in all probability exceed the appropriation, and the scaling down process will have to be resorted to. The commissioner suggests that all towns apply for the maximum. He states that a special town meeting is necessary in securing a vote of a town to apply for the appropriation, and he supplies a form for the resolution to be passed. September 1, 1905, has been fixed as the final day for making appli' cation for state aid. s The law provides that where any town does not make an appropriation in excess of one thousand dollars in any one year ((and this would mean a total vote of two thousand dollars on the part of the town for the two years), such towns can have the work per- formed by citiens who reside in the town at a price arranged for by the commissioner and accepted by the town without any outside competition.
 The following towns are entitled to receive two-thirds of the cost of con- struction:

THE INTENSE HEAT
FROM EARLY MORN
 UNTIL LATE AT NIGHT.

No ProstratiOps Reported During the
 Day-ThermOmeter Jumped from 9s
 to 12O-LittIe or No Humidity--No
 Sign of Releasing Its Hold for the
 Next Twenty-fOur Hours.
 The intense heat which came down all day Monday and all last night making the day unbearabl4 and the night one of sleeplessness to the majority of peo- pie, did not relax its hold yesterday but If anything, came down f1ercer than it did the day before. Weather Observer Tarr from his abode on the top of the Malley building, said that the heat at ? o'clock rogistered@9S in the shade and this in as cool a spot as could be found around the cityts On the street people sweltered and panted with the ther- mometer standing at 100 and in places l where the sun struck it went up to at l least 120. Duringg the day there were no heat prostrations reported at either of the hospitals or1at the police station. I This can only be. accounted for from the fact that there was little or no humidity along with the heat. About 1 o'clock a heavy shower, which lasted about ten minutes, gave relief for a short time. but it was of brief duration for by $ o'clock the heat was as intense as. ever. There is little signs of any abatement in the heat for the next twenty-four hours at least. During the evening nearly every one made for the shore resorts in the hope of finding a cool spot l and the trolley cars carried an enor- nous crowd in all directions up to a very late hour.
