NOK, SHORE, BREEZE 
MANCHESTER-BY-THE-SEA. 
The warm weather has put a new 
aspect on the summer colony who 
have been late in arriving thus far, 
and there has been quite an influx 
this week. It is about this time, 
Memorial Day and June 1, that the 
heaviest part of the excdus from the 
city is on. Manchester, with the rest 
of the North Shore, is getting her 
share of it. 
M. P. Hamlin, C. E. Cotting and 
F. W. Fabyan were among the ar- 
rivals Thursday. 
Henry S. Grew, 2d, came down to 
the Spaulding house at West Man- 
chester Wednesday. The Spauldings, 
who have been here all, winter, 
started the first of the week for 
Maine, where they will spend some 
time with Mrs. Spanlding’s family. 
B. F. Warden and family of Wash- 
ington are among the new comers to 
the North Shore this year. They 
have rented the Samuel Carr cottage 
at West Manchester and are expected 
to be on from the capitol next week 
to occepy it. The Carr’s, it is under- 
stood, are going abroad this summer. 
Mr. and Mrs. Thornton K. Lothrop 
are expected to arrive at the ‘ Hill 
House,” West Manchester, for the 
summer today. 
Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Wyman are 
at West Manchester for the summer. 
They arrived Wednesday. 
Other arrivals on Wednesday in- 
clude Mrs. Dr. W..S. Fitz, .G. M: 
Black and Lester Leland.

The Essex County club will open 
for the season next week. 
George C. Leach and family has 
been at his Central street house dur- 
ing the past week. It is understood 
Mr. Leach has let the house to 
George L. Allen of this town who 
will occupy it next month. 
Much interest is being evidenced 
in the proposed extension on Des- 
mond avenue. The question, which 
came up at the annual town meeting 
last winter, will be decided at a spe- 
cial meeting called for a week from 
Monday night. On the sixth of 
June, the day of the meeting, the 
selectmen will receive bids for the 
stone bridge, which will be built 
across the little brook, and also for 
the building of the road should the 
town decide to extend the street. The 
issue at hand is, whether the town 
shall extend Desmond avenue from 
the Daniel Sheehan estate, where it 
ends at present, across the brook to 
Vine street.

A Quick Return. 
That Chief Peabody has his eyes 
open for scorching autos and autos 
without numbers, as well, was evident 
last Sunday morning when he held 
up a Gloucester party on their way to 
Beverly. 
A brand new car, one of the real 
“red devil”? brand, with a party of 
three Gloucesterites, came puff-puff- 
ing through the town about 100’clock 
Sunday morning. The sharp eyes of 
the chief discovered a vacant spot in 
the place where the number is usually 
found, and forthwith he signalled 
them to stop. 
Despite the fact the party carried 
their license, the chief thought it un- 
wise to have an auto prowling about 
without a number, so homeward he 
advised them to turn. Back to the 
fish city they went without further 
adieu. 
This is the first occasion the local 
authorities have had to hold up an 
auto thus far this year. But Chief 
Peabody and his men have their eyes 
wide open, and from casual observa- 
tion it would seem that the law is to 
be kept to a letter in Manchester this 
season. 
Good Progress. 
Work on the Manchester electric 
light plant is progressing most favor- 
ably and in perfect accord with the 
plans of the company, according to 
the statement of an official of the 
company this week. The work will 
in all probability be completed and 
the roads back to their normal condi- 
tion by the middle of July, the date 
when the highway contract expires. 
The company have changed their 
original plans slightly, and for the 
time being will not lay the conduits 
on all the streets specified at the 
start. The calls for the use of elec- 
tricity do not necessitate placing con- 
duits on these streets just at present. 
The streets that wiJl not be touched 
for the time being include Pleasant, 
Lincoln, Vine streets, Rosedale av- 
enue, and Beach street from the rail- 
road crossing to Masconomo street. 
The work of laying the wires from 
the main conduits to private property 
has been sub-contracted to G. M. Gest. 
It is understood that parties having 
their property wired must pay the 
cost of laying the wires from the 
manholes. In laying a water-pipe it 
is customary for the customer to pay 
the cost of laying pipe on his own 
property, but in laying the wires for 
lights: the customer must pay cost 
from time wires leaves manhole, 
whether it be in center of street or on 
the side opposite to his property.
