see Mutual held at Corunna yesterday
drew the largest attendance for several
years and the meeting was an interest
ing one from start to tnish. The pro-
posed changes of the constitution and

ports showed the company affairs to be
in highly satisfactory condition. The
members voted to pay three claims

MAYOR INSPECTS
CONGRESS ST.
IMPROVEMENTS

The last epoch in the history Of
Congress street, long before patient
public, is about to be completed.
Within another month the street will
be in that state of improvement which
was. anticipated when the work was
first started, way,> way back. Today
the street department began moving
back the curbs two feet on each side,
while at the same time the Connecti-
cut Co. actually began to remove their
wooden poles intending to reset iron
standards.
Yesterday afternoon Mayor Bucking-
ham, Director Kenny and City Aud
itor Heating visited the street. and
completed the plans for the work
which was started today The Mayor
makes the announcement that at the
Logan Bros. corner, the southwest
corner of Middle and Congress streets,
the company is willing to give part of
their land to the city, about four feet
on the Middle street side and two feet
on the Congress street side. The
curbs will be moved back this dis
lance include the two feet distance or
dered, affording a better swing for the
fire apparatus in the Middle street
house.. Mayor Buckingham desires
publicly to thank the Logan Bros. for
the public spirit which they have
shown, and only wishes he could be
called upon more often to render
such service in behalf Of the city.
1t is the Mayors opinion that Con-
gress street, when completed, will be
of sufficient width for Years to come.
If it had been widened according to
the plans of some, the city would have
been out about $4,000 but as it is
now the street not only is widened,
but the city does not have to pay a
cent, the moving back of the curbs
being charged to the property own

Vote Buyer Now
George A. Barnes Faces
Jury in Criminal Superior
Court on Serious Charge

The trial of George A. Barnes, who
is charged with attempting to bride
voters in Sherman, last September,
was started this afternoon before
Judge NJ A. Shumway and a jury in
the criminal Superior court. The
court room was crowded when the
work of choosing jury started early
looking haggard and worn and his
voice could scarcely be heard when ne
pleaded not guilty.
His lawyers had made "a great eff
fort to have the case thrown out OF
court. They made plea to the jur-
isdiction, claiming that the Supreme
court had already declared parts OF
the corrupt practices act, under which
Barnes was arrested, unconstitutional.
Judge Shumway overruled the plea
and it was then necessary to proceed
to trial.
1t is charged that on September ~,
1908, Barnes offered money to Will
liam Hetterick and John Lunmark of
for Selectman in the Republican eau
Gus. The complaint did not state the
amount of money Barnes is alleged to
have offered. Barnes is a middle
aged man of prosperous appearance.
Former Deputy Sheriff Allen of Sher-
man was also arrested on the same
charge, and his case is still pending.
1t is expected that Barnes trial will
continue during the METRE after.
