The entire day was spent on We'd nesday by the commission appointed by Judge Case to hear the objectors in the appeal from the sewer assessments for the Roath. Division and North Cliff street sewer. The hearing was held in the common council chamber, opening at 10 O'Clock. The commission includes General w. A. Aikn, Alonzo R. Aborn and Walton c. Davenport. Those who object to the assessments are Charles F. Reynolds Ernest A. Cherry, Eliz- abeth M. Cherry and Jeanette Cherry. and the amounts they were assessed were respectively ss5.7o. s22.34. s22.s4. and S45.32.
 Corporation Counsel Briscoe appear ed for the city, and Attorneys Barnes and Thresher for the plaintiffs.
 Civil Engineer Chandler was called and showed blue print of the prem ises and explained it.
 When questioned by Attorney Barnes, Mir. Chandler said that the plans were made on request of the committee on public works. In reply to the Ques- tion whether the city had acquired the right to go across the property of John Donovan. John Dcdd and others on Roath street, with the new sewer. Mir. Chandler was finally allowed to say that it was considered that the people AAC@~AA~@A nor damaged. He did not think that the cost of the sewer to the various people was estimated separately.
 City Clerk Crowell read the records of the court and told the councils action. Lawyer Briscoe did likewise. < Civil Engineer G. E. Pitcher affirmed that the sewer is a detriment to the above people, that the old culvert that formerly drained the place was broken, that the surface water was not taken off, and the residents asked for relief. When the street was raised some time later the water flooded the Reynolds and Cherry lands, and because the sewer manhoIe is IS inches above the surface of the ground 1t is useless. He said that it interferes with Mrs. Cher rvs planting her large garden, upon which she depends greatly for her liv- ing. The conditions at present are worse than ever and Mir. Pitcher ad-

TOWN MANAGEMENT
 OF PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
New Law Went Into Effect July IS Which Concerns All Towns Without Chartered Districts or Cities.

There is being sent throughout the state by the state board of education chapter 146 of the public acts of 1909. an act concerning the town manage ment of public schools. which is of in terest to many towns in this vicinity, as 1t affects all towns without char tered school districts or all towns which do not have a city within its limits.
 Tn such towns the districts are all consolidated and all business formerly done in the districts must be done in town meeting. Probably the same schools will be maintained. but the dis trict lines amount to nothing, the com mittee being given the power of the town board of school visitors. The board of school visitors will become the town school committee. From the 18th of July, 1909, until the next an- nual town meeting the school visitors and the chairmen of the committees of the district within the town shall con- stitute a joint board.
 The school committee shall. in gen. eral, have all the powers and perform the duties both of district committees and boards of school visitors, except in so far as such powers and duties are inconsistent with the provisions of this act They shall maintain in their sev- eral towns good common schools, of the different grades, at such places and times as in their Judgment shall best subserve the interests of education. and as shall give all the scholars of the town as nearly equal advantages as may be practicable; they shall have charge of schools heretofore organ ized or maintained by their respective towns; they shall appoint a chairman and secretary, who shall respectively perform the duties and exercise the powers now pertaining to the chair man and secretary of the boards of school visitors; they shall appoint one or more acting visitors or superin- tendent to exercise under their discre- ton, a supervision over schools; they shall have the care and management of buildings, lands, apparatus and other property used for school purposes: they shall determine the number and qualifications of the scholars to be ad- mitted into each school; they shall em- ploy requisite number of qualified teachers, but shall make no contract for a longer period than one year; they shall designate the schools which shall be attended by the various children make such provisions as will enable every child of school age residing in the town, who is of proper mental and physical condition, to attend some pub Tic day school for the period required by law. and they may provide for the transportation of children wherever transportation may seem reasonable and desirable, and they may arrange. if they see fit. with the committee of an adjoining town for the instruction therein of such children as can attend school in such adjoining town more conveniently.
 Norwich is not affected by the act, but can take advantage of it if 1t is de- sired.

Hearing on Appeal from Sewer Assessments Occupied
 the Entire Day--visit Made to the Properly.

mitted that this area could be drained into Reynolds street. MT. Pitcher said that the city had no right to go through the land in the rear of Roath street. MT. Pitcher said a good catch basin would drain the land, and though ne admitted no one could repair the oiu drain, the objectors desire relief and not sewer.
 Ernest E. Cherry said that the sewer is of no use at all at present and not as good as the old drain, because the catch basin is too high. By changing the catch basin the sewer might be made of use. If the garden were used for a building lot the conditions would be acceptable.
 frontage, said there was no trouble un- til the old drain broke and Contractor Dodd raised the street. The water kept him from planting his garden un- til late and the sewer is no good to him. he claims. The assessment he does not consider fair. He wanted a sewer in Roath street.
 It was testified to by John Dodd that he allowed the sewer to go through his land, understanding that he would have no assessment
 Corporation Counsel Briscoe explain ed that there are no deeds for the land through which the sewer was laid, but there is bill of sale for drain pipe bought there by the city.
 At the afternoon session MT. Chand- Ter was called to the stand again and explained the size of the sewer, the construction and the assessment He claimed the assessments were just as regards the Cherry and Reynolds prop erty Their land can be drained by two short drains or by bringing the land up to the street level The sew CT had nothing to do with the water on the land, he said.
 The commission and attorneys with MT. Chandler drove to the locality in the afternoon, and after looking over the property and the location of the sewer they returned and the argu- ments were made by the attorneys, be- ing completed late in the afternoon.
 After hearing the arguments the commissioners reserved their decision.
