MASSACHUSETTS NOTES.
The Trolley Question to be Fought Out
In Town Meeting In NorthfIeld.

There is to be a very lively fight over
trolley matters at the Mortified town
meeting, at which time the two factions
that dispute electric road matters will
lock horns. The promoters OF the Green
field scheme are very confident that they
will control the meeting. They have
promises of cordial support, not merely
from Mortified street, but from West
Northfield, Mortified Mountain and East
Mortified.
Mortified Farms people and some of
the people through the central part of
the town will oppose the plan on the
ground that 1t would tend to kill the
Milers Falls project
An article is to be Inserted in the
Mortified town warrant to see II the
town will instruct the selectmen to grant
franchise to the Mortified and Green
field road, the same to include a right
of way across the bridge, and to run TO
the Winchester line.
The trolley promoters will be ready by
town meeting day to present some kind
of proposition for terms for the use OF
the bridge by the proposed line. This
proposition Is not yet definitely determine
ed, but 1t Is supposed that IL may include
proposal for the payment Of about $500
year rental. 1t is not thought possible
that the town meeting will turn down a
project that provides for SUCH an in
come, together with franchise tax
amounting to about 5000 that would ac-
crue the town IL the road was built
The promoters have been sounding the
feeling of the leaders of the Mortified
schools and conference movement to see
how they were affected The manage
ments of these enterprises have always
been somewhat divided as to their own
minds. They recognize the towns great
need of a trolley, but they have in the
past had some fear that the building of
trolley might bring too large crowds to
the town, and might perhaps be particu-
larry Objectionable on Sundays.
The promoters as the result of their
interview with w r. Moody, understand
that Mr. Moody admits that Mortified
village needs a trolley. They do not
expect any opposition from that source.
unless possibly 1t should be proposed to
have the line run through the East
Mortified settlement.
About $4,000 has so far been pledged
for the stock in Mortified Not much
more canvassing will be done until after
town meeting.
The feeling over trolley matters may
AFFECT the elections to the board of select
men. OF the present board, Samuel Hol-
ton is favorable to the present scheme
and A. w. Proctor is opposed, while
Frank Montague OF the Farms, who
oppose II, is non-committal Mr.. Holton
may be opposed by the opponents of the
present scheme and Mr.. Proctor by the
friends OF the new road.

was spanked by Miss Harris with a light
slab OF wood. The committee claims that
Miss Malone and Miss Alta Dennison,
former teachers as well as Miss Harris,
have had friction with Mr. and Mrs. Car
penter and their children. and say the
family causes much unnecessary trouble
in the school district The version Of the
Carpenters as given Monday was that
they did not consider Miss Harris a
proper teacher for their children. that
they had employed competent instructor
for them and that lessons have been
taught to them regularly. Mr.. Carpenter
was found guilty, but the case was filed

Sufferers from ailments that have af.
aicted in regular succession one genera.
ton after another Of their family are, as
rule, inclined to submit to them as in
eVitable. The case which follows proves
that such hereditary difficulties are not
beyond the reach of curative forces and
should inspire hopefulness and a readi
ness to try remedies that have effected
signal cures, such as that which is here
given.
Mrs. Elizabeth Rannells, of No. 4O9
East Seventh street. Newton, Kansas, is
well-known resident, whose disinclina-
ton to make known her personal affairs
