GOING INTO TRAINING
AS 'MAN'-O' WARS MEN
Twelve Civilians of Washington to
Learn the Art Of Coast
Defense.

Twelve Washingtonians have re-
sponded to their country's call to go
to sea with battleships, cruisers and
other vessels of the Atlantic fleet and
the reserve fleets and learn how to be
prospective man-o-war's-men. Their
intention, as civilians, and that of
Uncle Sans is that the government of
the United States. whom they are try
ing to assist, may some day have
number of men familiar with national
defense from a sea-fighting point of
view, as well as a land-ighting point
of view, such, as, in the latter case,
the Washington civilians who have
been and are being trained at the
Plattsburgh and other army camps.

ment to be used on shipboard.

BGGesEss3Es fa a<*%afS AUSTIN REFUSES TO [. TURN OVER BOOKS
Will Not Obey Mandate Of Town .'''' Meeting
WISHES BOND RELEASED
He and Tax Collector Disagree on In- q sterpretation of Law of EaSt Iegis- 
 Best Fair Ever Gi'ven-Briefs.

Acting under the instructions re- ceived from the last town meeting, Tax Collector c. F. Lewis called on Elmer E Austin last night and made formal demand upon the latter for the tax books, which MT. Austin used during his regime in the office. MT. Austin refused to turn them over to ; MT. Lewis and the matter rests that 3way at present. The report of the new board of finance presented at the recent town meeting showed that S6,- eco was still due the town from back taxes and that board recommended that the present collector. MT. Lewis, be instructed to procure all former tax books and proceed to collect tho amounts due. The board also recom- mended that the collector be allowed five per cent of the taxes collected IS compensation. This was done under a law passed by the 1915 legislature.
 Mr Lewis received notice of the 9action of the town meeting and last night, accompanied by Charles Brad bury as witness, made formal de- fhand on MT. Austin for the books of 4the year 1902 and from 1908 to 1914 inclusive These were the years MT. Austin filled the position MT. Austin refused to comply with the demand of kkAe tax collector and offered the fol- Awing reasons: we could not agree 1pn the interpretation of the law. As s1he act in question was not passed sshy the legislature until after my term sof office had expired, I do not think It applies to former collectors, but gather to changes in the office in the suture. Secondly, there are several suits pending, which were brought be- fore that act went into effect, and as will be called as q witness I must have my records. Thirdly. the bond I took out when l assumed the office is sKtill in force. and I feel as though it tDught to he released before l turn over the books. as they contain the Wonly records l have of the work have accomplished.' The matter rested this way this morning and what khe next step will be is a matter of conjecture.
 '"Tabs'' Fair CI0~c,
 The most successful fair in every way, ever given by St. Paul's T. A. & B. society, was brought to a close last 2 night.

 New Road Bed Desired.
 Once more the thoughts of those who reside here and are called to other places by their daily labor, are criticising the Connecticut company. The cause of the latest complaint IS the condition of the road bed of the tracks between the residence of J. c. Lincoln and Flannery's Hill. This is a level stretch of road and forms an ideal place for the motormen, who may or may not be a trif1e behind in schedule, to make up lost time. The cars sway back and forth, and one riding in them feels that it will topple over every instant. Several citizens discussed the matter recently with the idea of presenting a petition to the  haired. It has been rumored about town that the paper will be presented shortly and sent to the officials of the company.
 Modcsty. Another disciple has joined the ranks of modesty lately. A story was anoat yesterday that there had been a hoId-up on one of the back roads of the town Tuesday. The tale was to the effect that man of the town, who has charge of delivery, was held LID by two rather tough looking char acters, while pursuing his duties. , They demanded his money, but in stead of complying the man in ques- i tion used his whip with such telling ! effect that the supposed followers of l Jesse James took to flight. When 1 interviewed this morning the hero de- nied the occurrence of the event, but the fact remains that new whip pur- 1 chased last Saturday was found in the l bottom of the wagon, broken in two i pieces.
 To Hold Tournament. A setback tournament has been ar l ranged between teams representing the Globe cafe and the Kilby House i in Kensington. The first of the series, which will consist of six evenings of l play, will be held tonight in the Globe i cafe. At the conclusion of the tourna- supper to the victors. The Kilby House team consists of MessrG. Hart, DeMars, Burnes, JefIreys and Willle.
