 It was said that States Attorney Alcorn refused % throw out the cases, but a compromise was made, the young men paying the costs of the local court, Justice Calor remittins the fines imposed against them.
 The other young men who were mixed up in the row paid their fines when they appeared in court.
 Expect UnfavorabIe Action.
 Judging from the attitude of many of the voters, residents of Westwoot park are liable to be disappointed next Monday when they appear at a special town meeting to request the making of a number of highway im- provements in. that district
 They want several passways in the section in which they live converted Into highways that will entitle them to continuance of the rural delivery service.
 There is an impression that the im- provements asked for would entail an expenditure out of proportion to the l requirements of the district especially In view of the fact that the town has already spent considerable in build Ing a highway in the Westwood park section
 The men who petitionel for tho l town meeting and others living 'n l WestWood park are planning to turn l out In forco 10 get favorable vote on the proposition but seemingly the l prospects are not very encouraging.
