the mouth of Pond creek has been
completed by Harvey Williams. chief
engineer for William Leckie and his
associates.
The property to be developed con-
tains 1000 acres on which there are
five marketable seams of coal. The
plans Of the owners have not been
announced in detail but it Is stated
that the N. & w. has contracted for
great deal of the output and that
a modern coaling plant will be erect
ed In the local yards.
The tract being developed is just
across the river from the yards and
it is said to be the intetion to

1 Althouqh the new town hall building ! has been occupied for month, the , section of the building owned by the state is not yet finished and it will
 probably be two weeks before even a
 session of the Third district court can be held in the rooms assigned to that court on the first floor of the building. The superior court room will be in
 readiness in ample time for the Sep tember session of the superior court for Washington county.
 While the Westerly police depart
 ment quarters. which are located in the basement of the state section of the building, are ready for occupation, the transfer from the old city hall
 building has not been made.
 There seems to be some hitch in re-
 gard to the transfer, said to be due to the unsettled question as to the
 right of the town police to occupy a
 part of the state building; it is be- lieved negotiation for a settlement of
 the matter is pending. and it is prob
 able that the town may be required to
 pay rental to the state. If that should
 be the result there will be general dis appointment, as it was understood that when completed the new town hall building would accommodate the police
 and all other departments of the town and that offices would be assigned to all town officers and town departments. AS it is, the town hall building has rooms for the town clerk. the town treasurer, the town council and the water commissioners and the town hall proper, and that is all. As the town clerk and the probate court is the. same individual. no distinct office is required
 and the probate court sessions are held in the council chamber when not used by the councilmen. The judge of pro- bate has no office in the building, neither have the assessors or the over seer of the poor. while the police de- partnent is assigned to another build ing. One side of the first floor of the town building is devoted to the water department and town council and the other side to the town clerk and town treasurer. There are no other town ] or other offices in the building, one of the handsomest and best furnished in the state
