PULBIC WORKS BOARD
Recommend That l4O Acres Be
 Bought Near the Branch.

The board of public works met last
 night. Mayor Thoms presiding, and all the members being present except Mir Dennlson.
 On recommendation of the city en- gineer It was voted to recommend to the aldermen that the Unger place. so called, at the West Branch. con- sisting of 40 acres, be purchased by the city for $1,800. The following es- inmates were submitted: Grading South Main street from the angle be- low the Buckle shop to City Corners, $6,50O; sewer in South Brooklyn, $775; water main in Long Hill road, 2.45O. A hearing was set for the layout of Fuller street from Emerald street about 900 feet southerly, was set for July 9. On the same evening the petit tiop of Thomas Bahan for divis- ional fence between his property and that of Frederick Leavenworth and Helen McGill, Bridge street, will be considered.
 Property owners on Howard and Walnut streets were heard regarding the construction of sewers. The pro- jects were fayorably reported to the aldermen. The superintendent of streets was instructed to make such repairs on the Middlebury road as can be done for the 5000 percentage due Contractor Pidgeon and to pave the gutters on Highland avenue where people have set curbing. The peti- tion of Mrs Fred Yolkner to make a special connection with the sewer on Dublin street was granted on petition that she pay an assessment of $50. All this property paid the regular sewer assessment of S1.50 foot on its entire frontage, but even so MT Cairns thought that houses built in the rear should be assessed.
 The petition of John Gilman for a water main and fire hydrant i'll Newell place and of residents of Arch street for larger water main were referred to the engineer for an estimate of ex- pense, similar action was taken re- garding the construction of retain ing wall on Baldwin street south of No 5's engine house. Permission was granted to open North Main street at two different points to make new water connections.
 The engineer reported that the trouble from water In the cellar of the building at 51 Washington street was not due to leakage from any city main.
 The board had long chat about the expense of retaining wall at Cole street, and after being ques- toned closely the engineer finally ad- mitted that the estimate of $2,000 might be pared $100 or more, but he wasn't really sure of that It was decided to recommend to the alder men that hearings be authorized sor the laying of permanent pavement on Benedict street, from Liberty street to Jewelry street, and in Jew elry street from Benedict street to South Main street. The board has decided to pave Benedict street from the termination of the present pave- ment in that street to Liberty street, but last night Superintendent Kill duff suggested that the work be car ried clear down to Jewelry street The board thought fayorably of this, whereupon MT Cairns said it would be a move In the right direction to lay permanent pavement on Jewelry street. The board thought this all right, too, and both projects were fa- yorably reported to the aldermen.

OLANOFF FINED s1OO
He Took an Appeal Under Bonds
 of $500.

The case against Morris M. Olan- off for keeping house where dis orderly persons congregate, which has been pending in the city court the past few days was heard before Judge Peasley to-day. The main evidence was obtained from the po- lice department and Olanoff was de- fended by Attorney Russell. The evidence of Sergeant Cahey, Detec- tive Xeegan. Officers John Donahue and J. B. Walsh was to the effect that they had seen women. some of them with police records entering the place by the rear entrance which took them through a livery stable and out onto South Main street. The women never entered by the front entrance.
 It was always in a back room they sat and drank. There was a woman bartender in the place and the po- lice saw her throw dice with men customers both at the bar and in the back rooms.
 Invariably there were also men in this back room with the women. The woman bartender's name was Allen. Some of the other women seen there were Grace Lancaster, one Stapleton or Winship and Lizzie Cullen an i'm portation from New Haven.
 F. J. Walsh said the Cullen wo- man was known as Crooked Neck" He happened to be in the vicinity of the place last Saturday and heard some women squabbling in the back room. Later he saw two women is- sue from the place.
 After consultation with his client Attorney Russell announced there was no defense and moved for dis charge. The motion was denied and a fine of $100 and costs was imposed. An appeal under bail of $500 was taken.

BEER GOING UP
Patrons of the Schooner Are Set
 Worrying By Report.

A very annoying rumor is now going the rounds of the town and un- less it Is explained and shown to be a mere fabrication many will be like ly to worry over it so that they will be laid up. It is to the effect that the price of beer is to be advanced from five cents glass to ten cents and whiskey from ten cents to fifteen cents. Do you thing there is any truth in all this talk?" inquired man to-day who likes a little of both, the big one to keep the little one down. ''I heard It." he added, dejectedly, Gin half a dozen places this morning and it seems that there must be some ground for the rumor." It is bad enough to have flour and other things in that line going up, but If the schooner" and the nip" go skyward then the situation will be we'll nigh uncomfortable and there will not be much left for a man to live for,

THAT RETAINING WALL.
Building Must Determine What Ma
 terial Will Be Used.

That's live horse and you'll get grass" remarked Commissioner Finn of the department of public works last night when a communication was read from the superintendent of streets limiting that it might not be 'amiss to wait until 1t can be deter mined what sort of buildings will be put on the old Donahue property on Baldwin street before deciding to construct retaining wall there. If stones should be put in no wall would be needed. MT Finn didn't take kindly to this idea and gave express sion to the old saw quoted above and then said 1t was in the same dilapidated condition it now is to his own personal knowledge for the past twenty-five years and he thought it time something was done with it.

 Acting Speaker Gum got more work out of the house after recess yesterday than it has accomplished in the same period of time in any other day of the session. When he called the house to order he had an attendance of about twenty-five, but when it was discovered that he was passing bills at rate of three to the minute regardless of the absence of chairman the hall filled up rapidly.

farmers to learn and come in touch with
the college, which is trying in every way
possible to help them.

and old, women as we'll as men, will be
! interested.

the school, thatit resulted int the establish
ment of a private school by their late
principal, Mr.. S p. Barnett, and the
closing of the public school, pending the
settlement of their differences. At the
close of the school year Mr.. Barnett en-
gagged in a new field in Pennsylvania a,
where he is now at work.
AT the August meeting of the county
school board, steps were taken looking
to the reorganization of the school but
they were unable to secure public support
and at the September meeting, the
question still being open, the following
resolution was passed:
Resolved, That it is the sense OF this
Board that the Public School at Ia
Norrisville should be promptly opened
and it hereby places itself upon record as
DESTROYS to do so as soon as the patrons
of said school express willingness to
support the same.
Recent assurances of cooperation and
support having reached the Board. the
school will now be opened as soon as
possible, and 1t Is to be sincerely hoped
that its future usefulness will not be in
any way impaired by previous factions.

sistant Chief of Staff has just been pro-
NOTED by President Roosevelt to the
position of major general, being the
