Norwich bulletin., 1912-10-03

at the time of the plans and estimates | of 1903
 l After a general discussion favorable | to a system of sewerage for Westerly,
 it was voted that Frederick c. Buffum and Thomas Mckenzie of the munich l pal improvement committee and Dr. John Champlin of the health commit tee be committee to investigate at I the expense of the Board of Trade the sewerage system in Worcester and other places and to gather information on the subject so as to intelligently decide which method in their opinion
 would be best for Westerly.
 President Alberti R. Stillman pre- sided at the meeting and there was a large attendaIce. Under suspension of the rules, D. o. Earle and w. ". Bromley were admitted to membership.
 pr. John F. Champlin, chairman ,t the committee or manufactures, re- ported that many inquiries in regard
 10 inducements for location were re- ceived from many prospective indus tries, and those worthy were receiving proper consideration and investigation Secretary Samuel H. Davis and Cliff ford w. Campbell. delegates to the iI- ternational congress of chambers O: commerce and kindred organizations,
 made interesting and lengthy reports
 of the proceedings.
 Just prior to adjournment there was
 general discussion as to the desira- bility of paving Broad street, but no action was taken.
 The brave soldier boys of an imag-
 mary invading army will hike from | Pawcatuck river and cross the bridge 1 into Connecticut this (Thursday)
 morning. They will be in regular marching order with the vicinity of Stony brook as destination, where it is planned to battle with some of their comrades who are to act as an army of defense. There will be 12 cOmnanies
 of coast artillery manoeuvring as in- 1 fantrymen in the three days of war | like exercises. The invading force is
 composed of eight companies and four companies will form the defense.
 Walter Johnson, employed in the I Broadfoot bakery, Canal street, re- ceived painful injury while attempt | ing to unlock the door of the bakery
 early Wednesday morning. He adjust | ed the key, but 1t did not work in the l lock readily, and in forcing the key
 to turn his hand slipped and went | d | A gash four inches long was cut in
 his left hand and the tendon of his | index finger severed. He went to the
 office of Dr. John L. May. just across l the street where he received medical Land surgical treatment.
 | The tendons were connected so that | the index finger could be controlled and then several stitches were taken
 to close the wound in the hand. By
 the exercise of care for time the ten | Ions may be strengthened sufficient to perform the customary part of the hu- man machinery, but should they
 lseless, an operation extending back
 to the wrist will be necessary. | The fact that the vote on liquor | license has been injected into the cleo sion in the town of Stoninqton will | ~esult in the polling of large vote, 1 md the license question has really l become the chief factor in the elec- | ion. It has been the rule on this l ~uestion, as goes Pawcatuck, so goes he rest of the town of Stonington. Roth sides have shown unusual activ- '+y and the license advocates claim | hat careful canvass shows that a majority of the voters are not opposed | the use of intoxicating drinks, but
 hat does not signify that they will . ote in favor of license.
 There are a number of clubs in the 1 town under different names, but they are in reality drinking clubs-places
 where the members can take their l friends and buy as many drinks of l that which intoxicates as their desire or cash warrants. It IS therefore prob
 able that these club members will not vote in favor of license in order to protect their club interests, This class
 of voters will not openly fuse with the prohibitionists, but will be with them in the battle against license.
