AT the special meeting Of the Board Of
Aldermen TO consider the affairs of con.
tractor Roy who made the improvements
to the water distribution system of Fred.
eriCk during the summer. Engineer
Boardman, under whose direction the
! Improvements were made, presented a
detailed statement concerning the work
1t was found that Mr.. Roy during the
summer did $I3,S46.7I of work and he
has been paid $I2 SI7.77. There is still
I.o28.o4 yet owing Mr.. Roy by the citv.
1t has been pointed out that Mr.. Roy
made no charge for extra work, and
there was additional work done to the
amount Of $657.74.
There are bills about the city which
Mr.. Roy owes, amounting to something
like $3.50 Bills to about this amount
have been presented at the office of the
City Register. and it is probable that a
few more are outstanding. Most of the
money is owed to local people, one firm
having bill of about $500 for hauling
done
The city officials desire to protect the
local people. but they are also of the be-
iei that Mr.. Roy will pay his bills in full.
They point to the fact that he made little
or no profit on the job, and that probably
some time will be needed for him to
make the settlement desired The city
states that it has no right to take the mon
ey vet owing Mr.. Roy and pay bills without
an order from him. His contract. how
ever, provides, hat he must first furnish
satisfactory release of all liens incurred
as result of the improvements to the
water system.
In view of the situation word has been
sent Mr.. Roy asking him to come to
Frederick and he will be paid what is
owing him upon complying with his con
tract by furnishing a release of all liens
Aldermen Rice moved that water
meters be placed about the city and that
the city advertise for bids for meters. Mr..
Rice explained that he did not think it
necessary to meter every place, but he
stated some meters should be purchased
| and put IN use. BY this means he thought
the amount of water used could be ascer-
tanned, and some basis made for increas-
ed rates. He explained he stood in favor
of metes on all the larger places.
Mayor Schell stated he had always
been opposed to meters.
Alderman Johnson also opposed the
meter system.
Mr. Rice's motion was lost
Mr.. Rice made statement that a
house in the city is being supplied with
electric light from the city plant without
payment. Referred to the committee on
lights

Suffering an attack OF heart trouble
while riding his horse on Jefferson street,
Middletown, this county, Mr.. Calvin l..
Gaver, one Of the best known horse and
cattle dealers of the county, fell uncon-
scious to the ground, on Friday evening,
January 10TH, and expired several min
utes afterwards. Since his brother, DIR.
William E. Gaver, of Mount Airy. died
several weeks ago, Mr.. Gaver has wor-
RED considerably and it is thought that

and unexpected death. While he had
been in good health apparently. Mr..
Gaver had complained during the day
and went to Doctor E. l.. Beckley for
medical attention, saving that he was
troubled with pains about the heart. In
the early part of the afternoon he took
his horse over to the blacksmith, Mr..
Charles Crone. in Middletown, to be
rough shod. He was leaving there, the
work having been finished, when he was
seized with the fatal attack.
