$25,eoo of High School Bonds to Be in
 Denominations of $500 for Local In- IVesters.

At the special town meeting Thurs day evening, Attorney c, A. Capen was chosen moderator The matter of ratifying the bond issue of the town Tor raising money for the erection of the new Natchaug and Windham High school buildings was considered. Town Counsel Kelley offered a resolution providing for their maturity Nov, 1, 1913, the interest to be 1-2 per cent. payable semi-annually. An amend ment to Lawyer Kelley's resolution was passed providing that S25,0e0 of the Windham High school bonds shall be issued in denominations of $500 each to give local investors an opportunity to purchase them. The legislative ac- tion relating to these bonds provides they shall be sold at not less than par. The selectmen and the town treasurer were authorized to place the bonds on the market, the town clerk to affix the town seal to the same. Chairman Capen insisted under the call for the meeting that the vote should be taken by check list and the meeting sustained Lawyer Capen's po- sition. M. E. Lincoln said if there were those present who had no legal right to vote it would not be the first time such had been the case in town and city meetings The matter of increasing the assessors pay was then considered. Dr. George k. Wilcox chairman of the town assessors, fla Vored the assessors receiving $500 for their services to be divided equally between the three members of the board George F. Taylor amended Dr. Wilcox's motion to that effect to read $70G. M. E. Lincoln thought $500 ($200 each) was sufficient remuneration and the meeting voted that amount. The class in civil government from the Willimantic Normal school were present to watch the proceedings in the special town meeting.
 The town also voted to add $990 to it's previous appropriation for a new bridge across the Natchaug river be- tween this city and North Windham. The roadbed of the bridge is to be of foot block paving. Selectmen Mitchell and Gelinas informed the voters that it was impossible to secure competi- tive bids on a concrete basis It was suggested by NJ. F. Lincoln that the selectmen. secure if possible separate bids on the abutments and iron work.

The National Trotting association will give its sanction to the horse races at the Wiilimantic fair that opens next Monday, The local track had been placed on the blacklist because of the alleged racing of the horse Billiken, owned by Truman II. Sadd. under false pretenees at the race meeting in this city. it was claimed. last year. As the days We're drawing near for the opening of the fair which occurs next week there was some concern whether or not the fair would be able to hold the horse races that have been boaked, as the ban had not been lifted,
 Secretary w: II. Gocher of the Ma
 tional TrottiHg association announced Wednesday that the track would n- ob- ably be admitted to the associat tieR once more and the stain on it's record removed, This anRouncement was due to the fact that, the association was in receipt of a letter from Truman H. Sadd of Wilimantic announcing his resignation as vice president and di
 rector of the Horseshoe Park Agri- cultural association. It was because of his utilization with the fair associa- ton that the track was under the ban of the association, the Billiken inci- dent having resulted in his suspension and that of the horse until he returns
