MADE A NUISANCE.
Barre Man Pleaded Guilty to Violating
a City Ordinance.

In. L. GhidelIa pleaded guilty in the
city court Saturday to violating the
city ordinance by dumping waste into
the Potash brook, which runs back Of
his house ON Merchant street. He was
fined $40 and costs Of $500, which he
paid. The case was prosecuted by City
Attorney j, Ward Carver, who had re-
ceiyed complaints several times that the
brook was being used for swill barrel
by some of the people living near the
brook, which is not covered over between
the Nichols block and Summer street
A turn in the brook where it runs under
the Nichols block was the lodging plaes
for the waste which was being thrown
into the brook and caused very I'm
healthy state of affairs.
The case is the result Of efforts on
the part of the city attorney to put o
stop to this practice, which is not only
a violation of the city ordinances, but
dangerous to the health of the coms
munity.
