SATURDAY, MAY 12, 1906. 
Wanted: A warm wave. 
The railroad commissioners will pay 
their annual visit to the Gloucester 
branch next Wednesday, stopping at 
all the stations on the way. 
The investment of the many mil- 
lions of dollars of the money in the 
different sinking funds that the state 
is accumulating to pay off the different 
bond issues at maturity is one of the 
many duties of the state treasurer. 
That Manchester is not overlooked 
in these investments is shown in 
the treasurer's annual report which 
shows the following: State , Highway 
Loan Sinking Fund— Manchester 
note, $10,000; Metropolitan Water 
Loan Sinking Fund — Manchester 
bonds, $4000; Metropolitan Parks 
Loan Sinking Fund — Manchester 
notes, $10,000. 
Better Mail Service 
A better mail service is in store for 
Magnolia if the recommendations of 
Inspector Owings are carried out. He 
has recommended that the Post-office 
at Magnolia, Annisquam, Lanesville, 
Bay View and Pigeon Cove all be 
made sub-stations of the Gloucester 
Post-office, and that free delivery be 
granted to allthese communities. If 
this recommendation goes through it 
will place the postal business of the 
entire territory of Cape Ann, with the 
exception of Rockport, under Glouces- 
ter, and will be a great improvement 
in the way of increased mail facilities 
to the people of the places above 
mentioned. 
Another Auto Line 
The North Shore, it would seem, is 
to have plenty transportation service 
at its command this season. Besides 
the company recently organized in 
Gloucester torun an auto line between 
that city and Magnolia and Manches- 
ter, another company, known as the 
North Shore Auto-Passenger Co., was 
organized last Saturday evening, in 
Beverly, with a capitalization of. $50,- 
000. Alderman S. Harvey Dow was 
elected president and City Solicitor U. 
G. Haskell, treasurer. The company 
appointed a sub-committee of, expe- 
rienced directors to purchase the auto- 
mobiles to be used in a passenger ser- 
vice between Beverly and Manchester. 
The fare, it is understood, will be 25 
cents from Beverly to Manchester.
