THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, APRIL 3, 1928 TS BOWMANVILLE Melbourne E. Turner, Representative ' Phones: Office, 587; Res, 300 Bowmanville Council Passes Paving Program Estimated Cost of Pave. ments is $166,250 -- Dis- cuss Water Supply to the Cream of Barley Camp-- Much Routine Business is Disposed of (By Staff Reporter) Bowmanville, April 2.--The regular meeting of the town coun- ¢il was held in the Town Hall this evening with every member pres- ent. A feature of the session was the decision to go ahead with the paving project as recommended by the Streets Committee. It was out- lined by Councillor Caverly that the following streets be paved as soon as possible, the condition of the same in Spring and Fall war- ranting such an action. It was agreed by each councillor and the mayor that the paving project should be carried out. While this discussion was taking place, J. Breem, of Oshawa, who is a well- known authority on the subject of pavements addressed the mayor and council, having delayed in town for this purpose. It was de- cided therefore that a concrete pavement, as recommended by Mr. Breem, would fulfill the necessity, saving considerable money at the same time, The estimated cost of laying the pavements was stated at $68,000 for all streets under consideration, while the asphalt pavement would amount close on to $98,250, It was also shown that if the council in a few years wish to complete the roads with asphalt, it may do so, the laying of the concrete at pres- ent not interferring with the future operation, The matter was settled that the Roads and Streets Com- | fin NewYork | at the ABERDEEN HOTEL 4 West 820d Se, 5th Ave. to tation -- ™ $90 zz sohn F.

List of Streets Those streets which will be af- fected according to recommenda- tion are: Wellington street from Scugog to Liberty streets (petition ed); Church from Scugog to Lib- erty; Silver, from King to Welling- ton; Temperance, from King to Queen streets; Scugog from the C. P.R. station to King street; and Queen street from Temperance to Scugog streets. Another matter which took up a considerable portion of the even- ing was the issue concerning the supplying of water heads to the Cream of Barley Camp, on the Kingston road, just east of the town, This question has been in the hands of the council for some years and again brought forth to- night, A communication from J. J, Morden, in reference to this case was read. It stated that water con- nection from the town was desir- able, since so many tourists and even a large number of the town's own residents made use of the Camp as a source of recreation. The council realized this fact and Engineer Fred Palmer gave esti- mates concerning the running of a pipe to the Camp. It was stated that an inch line, or a three-quar- ter inch pipe would probably he too small to permit for a suitable pressure or volume, although the quotation on such lines would be much less that a larger pipe. For the inch line the price would be around $1,890. For a two inch pipe however, the cost would be raised to $2,345. It was mentioned ny Councillor Caverly, who took up the question in favor of the proposed water line extension, that Mr, Morden fully realizes the position that he is placed in and would meet the cur- rent costs of the water used, On the other hand, however, a four inch line was proposed to run to the Agricultural buildings so that a hydrant might be attached and that a two-inch pipe he extend- ed to the Camp from that point, The subject under debate was left to the Waterworks Committee to enquire for full details and to be brought up at a further session, Two matters of importance were dealt with concerning the installa- tion by residents Gasoline pumps. The first mentioned was from John Hately, Temperance street, who desired tio erect a pump and was advised that he be allowed to do 80. B. Furber, King street near Liberty, desired to erect a gas pump at an approximate cost of $6,000. The matter was tabled and Furber notified to send complete details and drawings of the pro- posed construction. Impassable A communication from George Mason, was read giving reasom for complaint about impassable condi- tions on High street. Councillor Caverly said the complaint had much foundation and the question was referred to the Roads and Streets Committee. Two trees seem to be in the way at the residence of F, C, Pethick, and accordingly the matter was referred to the Streets Committee with power to act. Charles A. Bartlett stated a de- sire in a communication to erect a canopy over the sidewalk on his property at King street, with other improvements. The move for this was carried. Support Highway Some discussion centered around the communication from the Oshawa City Council which stated that that body had passed a resolution giving their support to the lakeside Highway project, In detail the statement said that the new highway would be run through from Toronto along the lake and through the towns bordering the lake to the Quebec Boundary. The local council discussed the possi- bility of this new highway detract- ing interest and patronage from Bowmanville itself. It was left over until the matter might be more fully detailed, . The Finance report for March gave the amount of current ex- penditures as $1,007.18, Several issues regarding sewer conditions and recommended in- stallations of new sewers occupied a short period, George Weeks sent a letter to the effect that a sani- tary sewer on Duke street be in- stalled. The matter was tabled until the May meeting, Councillor Crombie raised a splendid point when he spoke about the need of a sewer on Wellington street, He stated that two new houses would be 'located at this section if the sewer were installed, declaring at the same time that new homes were on big asset to Bowmanville at present. Councillor Caverly and Reeve Thickson also favored the idea. Councillor Caverly treated a bix issue in an active way. He called attention to the fact that persons in wet weather crossing the Van- stone Bridge are splashed and covered with mud if caught when a car or vehicle on the bridge at the same time, The matter will he referred to the Department of Pub- lic Highways to make investiga- tion and if possible effect a remedy for the situation, The report on the Auditor's An- nual Statement was announced as one of the most satisfying yet pro- duced. It was read by Deputy Reeve Carrothers. One of the most im- pressive passages of the Audit reads: "There is the most noticeable improvement in the records and accounts of the Town since the first -- Pp rs of the Newest Undies OU'LL love the newest May garment is beautifully tailored from our own lovely odksticch rayon--so soft and fine--and cleyerl to fit graciously under the new frocks and sui ¥ The undies illustrated are but charming, practical May Belle obtainab) delicate, really washable Yad og May Belle Lin Belle undies!

Genovevo Rivas, commander of the 43rd regiment and several soldiers were 'also wounded. Military authorities declare the battle dealt a death blow to the uprising in the state of Guana- juato. One hundred and eighty horses and 67 rifles were captured from the Government forces during the combat. The insurgents, who num- bered 300, fought desperately for 29 hours under chieftain Anaya and the two unnamed priests against the 43rd regiment. The insurgents, strongly fortified in the San Isridro ranch, offered desper- ate resistance even to the end, when fighting spread to the roofs of buildings until it was confined to a church on the ranch, where the leaders succumbed. BODY FOUND IN PEMBROKE The body of Albert Court, 13- year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Al- bert Court of Pembroke, who had been missing since Friday last, when he went to slide on the bank of the Muskrat River, was found this afternoon - about 100 yards from the spot where his sleigh 'was discovered beside a hole in the ice. Searchers had been combing the countryside for trace of the boy for two days. The lad was a deaf mute.

Warren and their son, Jackson, whose charred bodies were found in .the ruins of the home Wednesday. Police said the walls of the make-shift gallery were nicked by thousands of bullets and a target placed on the wall showed more than 400 direct bulls eyes made with a 22-calibre pistol. Although Deputy Sheriff Jerry Collins reported that he was con- vinced that the son, possibly ment- ally deranged, was responsible for the triple tragedy, officials could not account for the burning of the home presumably after the mur- ders. When neighbors entered the home immediately after the fire they found the bodies of Warren and his wife, burned beyond recog- nition, and in an other room the body of their son, In his bed was the pistol with three shells missing. Neighbors said Jackson had been proud of his prowess as a gunner and had often boasted that he was a better shot than his father. This fact linked to the finding of the shooting gallery led officers to he- lieve his mania for guns had led to the triple shooting. Meanwhile citizens of the vil- lage made every effort to arrive at a solution of the mystery. All relatives, business associates, and persons said to be intimate with the family, were brought to head- quarters 'and thoroughly question- Despite the damaging evidence pointing toward the boy, citizens raised $10,000 to be offered as a reward for the capture and con- viction of the slayer or slayers of the family, This was held up un- til. investigators had completed When looking for a home See Westmount Heights, PLOT B Large Lots Easy Terms Bertrand Realty Phone 2654 their work and made a report om their findings.
