The parties favoring the inJunction at that time, also favored the removal oi the dam.
 The Connecticut side of this dam was carried away about a year ago, the "es- tarIv Woolen mill has passed away and possibly the conditions then and now have been materially changed It may he that the permanent 1nJunetlon mas heeu lifted, that the proposed improve rr,ent may go forward without litigation and thai those who contemplate the building have all the rights required to erect buildings along that bridge front age. They surely would not make the undertaking, with the expenditure 1t car ries. without knowing jlSst where they are at A row of stores along the bridge front would greatly improve the appear ance of that section.
 bag of gold was found in the pond off the Watch Hill road, not far from the artificial ice plant. Thursday morn Ing by two sons of Harvey Arzamarskle, farmer in the Avondale district.

So they hauled it into their boat, and were surprised to find that the bag contained finished and unfinished Watch and neck chains, of varied sizes and pat terms.
 Police Chief Brown was notified and Policeman Curtin was detailed to lnves- tirate The bag had been in the water so long that il was on the verge of decay so baV and contents were lifted into box and taken to the police station. A tag among the chains bore the mark: ..T 4 K Co. 14k---10 gold-filled." The recovered chains were not >Isty. were ln good condition and weigh about twenty five pounds.
 chief Browns theory is that the chains were stolen from some jewelry manufacturing concern, and to avoid de- lection. the thieves threw the bag and plunder into the pond. Within the past year there have been several robberies of jsweIry plants in Providence and Vicin- ftv The chief has notified the Provi- dence police of the recovery of the chains and if an owner apears, will suggest reward for the Arzarma sflie boys, Claude and Clinton
