George Knowles. aged 10, who was riding in an express wagon owned by Wilcox of Quiambaug was severely in
 jured when in Mechanic street, Monday
 morning. The horse shied at a trolley
 car and the boy was thrown out, two
 wheels of the wagon passing over his
 left leg. The trolley car, which was
 in charge of Conductor William J.
 Graham with Frank Bailey, motor
 man, was quickly stopped. The in-
 jured boy was taken on and the car
 backed to the boys home down the
 street, where he was attended by Dr.
 F. c. Pagan. Although the leg is bad-
 ly crushed, no bones are broken.
 Edward G. CrandaII and his son,
 Constant T. CrandaII, have purchased
 a large tract of land in Lester street
 from Mrs. Orson Rogers. The tract
 comprises three large building lots
 and adjoins the property of Miss Mat
 tie P. Babcock at the corner of West
 most desirable building sites in that
 section. It is probable that the Messrs.
 Crandall will have constructed fine residence on the premises, as the prop
 erty now bought for their own use, rather than for speculative purposes.
 After delay of two weeks the town
 councilmen of Westerly will hold special session today (Tuesday) to act upon the vote adopted at the financial town meeting which provided for the cutting down of Cookey hill l. e.. changing the grade of Union street. A delegation waited upon President Will fam L. Clarke and urged upon him the calling of a special meeting of the town council as required under the vote adopted in town meeting. This President Clarke consented to do and. after consulta ton with others, fixed the time for Tuesday
 There is said to be some council men who are opposed to this improve ment, even if the town meeting did favor it. and who propose to place ob- of delay in the expectation that the vote of the town meeting will be rescinded.
 An injustice has been done Lorenzo l D. Fairbrother, manager of the Ston- 1 ington baseball team, in connecting | him with the attempt to disqualify l Frank Foley, catcher for the champion | Westerly High school team, in the ] game with Hartford for the state championship in New Haven, last Fri day When the players and the friends ] who accompanied them returned to | Westerly, they reported that MT.

AIr. Fairbrother was strongly censured for this al eged action. some of the high school adherents stating that even were all hat Mr. F'afrbrother stated actual | facts, H would be still a mean act for lim to voluntarily butt into the af- airs of another league just to get even with Foley and endanger the ,hance of the Westerly team winning he championship pennant.
