If the proposed cut of nine feet was made, the Hibernia Il building would be seventeen feet above the street level.
 MT. Coy said he did not think the property owners in the street were as IL II, l.al1, as were the people of Westerly. The change in grade would be a public convenience and is a public necessity as it would relieve the congestion in Main street It was for the best in terests of the town that the grade be lowered, and he believed it was the duty of the council to establish a grade without further delay. As a property owner on the street, he was willing to accept any change of grade. James A. Welch had been seriously inconvenienced in his building oper- ations by the delay. and that now was the opportune time to establish the grade and the carrying out of the votes of the series of town meetings.
 MT. Burke stated that the Hibernian society had submitted a proposition to the original committee but had never been given hearing by that committee. If the extreme cut is to be made the Hibernians would expect the town to bear the expense of lowering the build ing to the same relative position as regard to grade as at present. He ob- jected to any change of grade until it was definitely known whether fair recompense was to be made for the damage. No action taken.
 Judge John w. Sweeney urged that something be done towards the new grade for Bay street. It was explained that there was unavoidable delay in the preparation of the plat and the matter was continued to the next reg ular meeting.

A SONG OF LIFE.

The day is too short for its pleasures
To fully unfold;
Night closes on partly grasped treas
And stories half told.
Awake! from your languor and
To gaze on the world
With wonders and happiness teeming,
Each blossoms unfurled.
To welcome the day that is dawning,
Oh, put away fears,
Forget all your sorrows and mourn
ing,
Complaining and tears!
For surely this vision of beauty,
The glorious voice
OF nature, proclaims it our duty
To work and rejoice!
To store in our hearts all the rapture
Fresh plucked in youths morn;
For, oh, we can never recapture
It, once it is gone.

EXCHANGE OF
COMPLIMENTS
Messrs. Pack and Hall Are Just as
Friendly as Before the Race.

The recent race for the Office of
district attorney between Hon. r. S.
Hall and Hon. w. j. Pack, was a
friendly contest throughout and has
LETT few, If any, sore spots. Both gen
tlemen were of irreproachable char
acter both ranked high in the legal
profession, both were good citizens
in every meaning of the word, and
both were popular. It simply devel-
oped into contest to see which
could gather in the most votes in a
friendly way, and in this Mr. Hall
was victor, due doubtless to the fact
that he had served year as district
attorney pro tenn and had made a
good RECORD in the Office.
That the same friendly spirit and
hearty cooperation still exists be
tween the two contestants is evidenc'
ed by the following correspondence,
which reflects credit upon both gen
tlemen:

been sent to other associations, and

tumn it is expected these changes
will be heard and recommended. The
