THE TERROR.

THE TERROR.
NGINEER JOHN JUDSON, dis
appearing at the moment when
the superintendent had sent him

appointing him constable from the ken
of those who were most anxious to
hear from him, was late I'm reporting.
But when he finally climbed the stair
OF the Crows Nest to tap ut Lidger-
woods door he brought the first au-

enemy.
When McCloskcy had come mt push

AGREEMENT NOT REACHED
BETWEEN TOWN AND ACADEMY.
Trustees Want All of the $500 and
Not SIS Term for Each PupiI-Duf-
ferent Than Was Intended by Prin-
cipals' Club Committee.

Principal F. j. Working, chairman
of the committee named by the Prin-
cipals' club to secure the payment of
the tuition of pupils of the town, at
the Academy by the town. stated on
Tuesday evening that the town and
trustees of the Academy had not been
able to come to an agreement in re-
gard to the matter. He stated that the
trustees of the Academy had declared
that they desired the town to turn
over the $500 appropriated by the
town meeting in payment for the tut
ton of the town pupils and that they
are not willing to accept IS a term for
each pupil believing that the full
amount should be turned over to
them.
Mr. Working stated that the inten-
ton of the Principals club and the
resolutions regarding the same which
had been adopted, and which was also
sanctioned by the board of trade, was
that the town should pay the tuition
of the pupils at the Academy. Not
knowing how many pupils there would
be, the amount was fixed at $500,
that being considered sufficient to pro-
vide for all the pupils of the town at
tending at the rate of SIS year for
the three terms. 1t is understood that
the sum is larger than the amount re-
CURED to pay the tuition at the rate
of SIS a term, and Mr. Working stated
that it was the desire of the town to
pay only the tuition regularly TGQuHeU
by the Academy.
At the town meeting that part of the
warning referring to the paying of the
tuition read as follows:
Also to act on the petition of F. j.
Working, Clifton H. Hobson and J, 3.
Stanton, as a committee of the Prin-
cipa1s' club, and twenty three others
asking that action be taken on the fol-
lowing proposition. viz: ITO make an
appropriation for the support of Nor
witch Free Academy to relieve the
pupils residing in the town of Norwich
of the customary term fees at said
Academy"
In the town meeting the petition of
F. j. Working G. H. Hobson and J. B.
Stanton, a committee of the Princi-
pals club, was presented by Mr.. Werk-
ing, providing that the town designate
the Norwich Free Academy as hign
school and make a contract with it for
a sum not to exceed $500 to receive
the pupils of the town. He explained
that Norwich was the only town in the
United States that did not offer its pu-
pills a high school education.
