1t is proposed to build the Water bury-Milldale trolley road by popular subscription, provided of course .a charter will be granted, and 1t is ex- pected one will be as there has been no serious objection to the proposi- : uon. The legislative committee have not yet reported on the matter. The packers of the enterprise are Otis $. Northrop. John B. Mullings, r.. B. Rice, George F. Hughes, of ReiA X Hughes, and Dr c. s. Rodman.
 The layout runs from East Main street past Shell Hitchcock's pond, a famous fishing resort among local disciples of the rod, and on to Mill dale, and it is intended to develop the adjoining territory. "
 By building the road with popular subscriptions the idea is to make the stock as popular as possible. and to do that the price per share must be low enough to be within the reach of the . average investor.
 Attorney Cassidy, who had the en- gineering of the idea through the leg islature ill charge, said the stock will be sold ill the local market as far as possible and at $25 per share. with such men as F. B. Rice, John R. Null lings, o. s. Northrop, George F. Hughes and Dr Rodman, no one need be afraid to invest his money in this enterprise" said Mir Cassidy. MT Cassidy is confident charter will be granted and that work will be started on the proposed road as soon as possi- ble The distance to Milldale is not so far that the work should not be completed this summer.

 ficer Myers arrested him on Livery street where he was rolling around singing and bOthering the whole neigh horhoOd. Asked if he had anything to say for himself he said he had not, and that it was not worth while any way to say anything. He was sent back to Br0okside to work out fine of $1O and costs. Judge Cowell thinking 1t was only fair that he should give something in return for the easy time he had all winter Casey thought he was deserving of some consideration because he had not been intoxicated in four months He caused some laugh ter John Kelley was charged with breach of the peace Friday at his home, S16 Baldwin street.
