VIII Restore Child to Mother.

Dispositions were taken Tuesday before
Justice +. ID. r. Stowe is relation TO the
divorce proceedings brought by Mrs
Edna +. Townshend against her husband
Charles q. TOwnshend, and her suit for
alleged alienation Of affections brought
against Mr.. Townsheud's parents. Mr.
and Mrs. George Townshend, who live
on the ShOles farm in Dummerston. The
interest in the case centres around the
custody Of Minerva, 3, daughter Of Mr..
ana Mrs Townshend. The divorce suit
was brought in August, 1903, and at that
time Judge +. l.. Waterman granted an
injunction restraining Mr.. Townshend
from interfering with his wife in the
custody of the two children Before the
papers were served on Mr.. Townshend
he left the state, taking the little girl
with him. Attorneys for Mrs. Towns
bend made diligent search for him
and located him near Boston. Judge A.
a. Hall issued an order allowing service
of the papers in any other state or by
publication. Before steps could be taken
to get the child from his custody he
left for the South and was located later
in Georgia. He returned recently to the
home of his parents in Dummerston, and
he has agreed to surrender the child to
the mother. The little girl is i'll at
present, but as soon as she is well enough
she will come to BrattlebOro to live with
her mother Mrs. Townshend has visited
her several times since she returned
home. The deposition of Thomas
Hickey was taken for the plaintiff and
the deposition of John Clancy was taken
in behalf of the defendant The suit for
alleged alienation of affections is sci

were within less than Is feet of one of
the main thOroughfares of the city, which
is brightly lighted at all hours of the
night. No dynamite was used. Box after
box of stamps was removed from the

been used to bear OFF the booty. Two
men, charged with being implicated in
the robbery, were arrested by postoffice
inspectors in the Grand Central station

arrest, trunks containing $4,000 worth OF

NEW SCHEME FOR LAYING DUST.
Push Carts viii Be Equipped with Hose
to Be Attached to Hydrants, but Mrs.
Hamilton viii Run Water Wagons.

Dust on Main street will be hard to
find this season If all the plans for wet
ting down the street are carried into
effect. The dust became troublesome
early in the week and frequent complaints
were made about it, In former years the
watering carts began their regular trips
about April Is and the subscription which
was made by people along the street was
on basis of a season beginning at that
time. J. =. Nichols owned the watering
carts and carried on the watering bust
ness the past 10 years, but he has sold
the carts to Mrs. Fremont Hamilton of
the Crystal Springs Ice company Mr..
Nichols watered the streets at the rate
of $3.50 a day for each team and he
called the season 20 weeks. Mrs. Hamil
ton thinks that $3.50 is the right price
under present conditions, and she has
made her calculations on that basis.
The selectmen and Road Commissioner
| David r. Perry considered the street
| watering question as soon as the dust
! began to blow and when they found that
! Mrs Hamilton was going to charge more
| this year than had been charged In for
mer years they decided to have the work
/ done themselves. On Tuesday morning
/ Mr.. Perry got out the fire hose ana gave
Main street "A bath which changed the
dust into mud Within half an hour the
! first watering cart made its appearance
and gave the street another wetting down.
| About noon 200 feet of one-inch hose
arrived at the store of First Selectman
| John Calvin for use in another street
watering scheme. This scheme is to
| give each of the men who have charge
of the street cleaning push carts length
of hose with instructions to couple it
to the nearest hydrant and lay the dust
on any section of Main street where II
is needed Ii is believed that a little
personal attention to particular spots
would result in much better conditions
than a less frequent general sprinkling
This plan will be put into effect at once
Mr.. Perry intends to give Main street
a thorough bath about twice a week and
Mrs Hamilton has made arrangements
with all the old subscribers to the street
watering fund so that she will go ahead
and sprinkle the streets as though nothing
else was being done to lay the dust Be
tween these three methods the street
should be freer from dust than it has
been in many years There is demand
for watering cart on Prospect hill and
on Forest Square and 1t is probable that
Mrs Hamilton will put on another cart
