MANCHESTER. 
Mrs. J. 8S. Reed spent Tuesday in 
Boston and Auburndale. 
James W. Widger has resigned as 
janitor of the Memorial Library 
building on account of ill health. 
This has been convention week in 
Boston for the GAR, WRC, and S. 
of V. Delegates from each of the or- 
ders have been in attendance at the 
several conventions. 
Mystie Degree team of Lynn con- 
ferred the degrees upon five candi- 
dates for North Shore lodge, AOUW, 
Tuesday evening, the work being 
performed in a most creditable man- 
ner. Among the guests of the eve- 
ning was Grand Master Workman 
Albert Clements of Manchester, N. 
H., and DDGMW George Anderson 
of Gloucester, also members of Fern- 
wood lodge of Gloucester and Metro- 
politan lodge of Boston. The atten- 
dance was large and the evening 
proved a most delightful one for the 
members of the order. The member- 
ship of the local lodge is now very 
near the 100 mark. B. S. Bullock 
was the caterer. One new applica- 
tion for membership was also re- 
ceived at this meeting. The degree 
team came over the road from Lynn 
in a large auto. 
GORMAN RE-APPOINTED CHIEF OF POLIOE OF MANCHESTER. 
At their meeting last evening, the 
Manchester Board of Selectmen re- 
appointed M. E. Gorman chief of po- 
lice for the year. The three mem- 
bers of the board were present and 
the vote was unanimous. 
Mr. Gorman was appointed last 
December by the board to fill out 
the balance of the year, caused by 
the resignation of W. H. Sullivan. 
For several weeks it has been a 
matter of much conjecture on the 
part of the citizens as to who the 
new board would appoint, it being 
known there were several applica- 
tions for the position, one of whom 
was former Chief Sullivan. Last 
night’s action of the board will 
therefore be received with must in- 
terest by the people of the town. 
Under the civil service, the patrol- 
men are not appointed now from 
year to year, therefore no further 
police appointments were made. 
Neither were any special police of- 
ficers appointed last night. 
The board did re-appoint George 
D. Haskell janitor of the town hall 
building and offices, and Wilbur B. 
Paige, keeper of the almshouse, and 
Mrs. Paige, matron. 
Town Meeting Next Tuesday. 
The adjourned Manchester Town 
Meeting will be held next Tuesday 
evening at 7.30 o’clock. 
Fire at Beach Street Crossing. 
The Manchester fire’ department 
was called out late yesterday after- 
noon for a fire in a small building, 
at the Beach street crossing of the 
B. & M., recently moved there to 
be used as an engineer’s office in 
connection with the drawbridge im- 
provements now in process. The 
alarm was sounded at 4.58. The 
all-out rung in about 5.25. It is 
thought the fire started from matches 
in some of the workmen’s clothes in 
the shanty. A few instruments, 
some clothes, a few plans, which can 
be easily dupheated, four pairs of 
rubber boots, were among the things 
destroyed. The loss will amount to 
about $75, including the building.
