group songs by each and a part of
the third act of "Pagliacci' in cos

der" and many other familiar songs.
Mr.. Howell sang in q pleasing
manner several songs among them'

This same scene of the opera "Pag-
liacci" was presented by Mrs. Wales

in Philadelphia which was given FOR
the benefit of the Wilson College

No small part of the artistic ef-
feet of the recital was due to the
accompaniment on the piano by Ellis
Clark Hamann. He was more than
lust a sympathetic accompanist. His
accompaniments alone were well
worth hearing for their splendid ar
tistry.

no objections to the proposed install
lation of the tank and pump on Con-
cord avenue, II he-agreed not TO op-

tion and moved that the town council

registered voters of the town at a spe-
cial election. This brought forth
storm of protest from the property
owners, who claimed that it would be

unfair to those who owned property
on which they paid taxes to let the
non-taxpayers vote. The motion was
then amended to read property own
ers instead of registered voters.
A motion was then made and car.
ried that committe of three be ap-
pointed by the chair to confer with
the town council regarding the cleo
tion and to submit routes to be paced
upon the ballots. Then the question
OF the number of routes that should be
placed upon the ballots came up, and
il was moved that a first and second
choice be designated If five routes
were placed on the ticket. An
amendment to this was to eliminate
second choice. The motion to amend
failed to carry and the original mo.
tion was then put and carried.
On the committee to confer with the
town council, the chair appointed X.
w. Sloan, w. E. Barnum and\W. r.
Chambers.
AT this point in the proceedings a
motion to adjourn failed to carry.
A suggestion was offered to the
committee that route number one
should contain the following lines
Beginning at the southeast corner of
town thence west to Center street.
thence north to Main; thence west to
court houes; thence north to the high
way at the Campbell corner This
suggestion was lost in a motion to
adjourn.
The question of the number OF
routes to be placed upon the ballot
was finally settled by leaving the
matter entirely with the committee
and the council.
The meeting then adjourned with
the request that the council call the
election at the earliest possible date,
as the time for making the selection
was becoming short.
