CITY FATHERS MET.
Board of Aldermen Held Secret Ses- sion Before Public Meeting-Health Survey of City.

The regular monthly meeting of the board of aldermen was held in t7sx council chamber Monday evening. Pre- ceding the meeting there was a secret session of the board in the office of Mayor Daniel P. Dunn. This meeting lasted about 30 minutes, after which the pubic meeting was called to or der. Clerk A. C. Scripture read the minutes of the last meeting and they were accepted by the board.
 George K. Anderson of the American Thread company was present at the meeting and spoke in favor of having Dr. Notion come to this city from Boston and make a health survey of the city and the surrounding suburbs It was estimated that the cost of get ting Dr. Notion to come to Williman- tic would not exceed $200, which would be paid for his expenses. The doctor would volunteer his services to the city free of charge. MT. Anderson thought that committee of the board could confer with the selectmen of the town in regard to the matter and the town would or could help bear the expense of the survey. When the matter was put up for discussion Andernan Nc IntOsh asked if the city was supplied with someone who could look out for the city's welfare and yet be connect ed with the city. He was of the opin- ion that these duties feTl upon the health officer. The matter was left to
