Under is provisions three members Of the present Joard of Trustees will hold over another y e a r; hrce trustees and a president, will be elected it the coming election. This is a valuable leature -nd of great benefit to the village. In other respects, also, the new charter'seem* to xi an improvement upon the old one. The statements of the Treasurer and ‘Cluer -DKiaeer, herewith, published, are maa» ajpart f Hi is rei>ort. They contain the items of re- ^elptS' and expenditure,, and the amount on land, a t the present time, of both money and roperty. , . Bonded Indebtedness.— The bonded' ln- ebtedness of tlie vUlage is §31,000, bearing in terest a t the rate of 7 per cent, per annuni. The bonds have six years to run. I WATER WofeKS.—Bixtyieight hydrants are used by the village, costing S55 per annum for dacli. The contract under which this price is baid has twelve years-to-run'. The cost of the water works is reported a t $140,000. I ana m- iormed the village has the^ ri^ht to purchaso the water works at any time by paying the dctual cost. The water is quite generally used tiy the citizens, and I am of the opinion that if the village owned tlie works, the income re- cfeived'from tlie sale of the water, would in Slie not very distant future,_ help to pay ,the purchase price besides keeping the .works in properrepair.i ' 'I ** yjj'WJEltA.OE.— Our village has reached ^that point in its growth where proper-provisions sliould be made for a system of sewerage that will meet not only the demands of the present but also of the future. I therefore recom mend the appropriation of $700 as per resolu tion Iso. 6 subnutted by the trustees. If the work proposed is properly carried out, all the citizens may be well informed on the subject. T The Stone Q u a r ry and Stone C rusher.— In accordance with a resolution passed at the last election the trustees purchased astone quarry of William Buttwrlield, of thertown' 'of Verona, and in-order to get tliefull benefit of the purchase for our streets it is necessary to lmve a stone crusher. I therefore recommend tne’passage of resolution No. 8, as-submitted by thetrustees. ‘ ► S t OHINQ of F ire A pparatds .—During the. past year. tlie village has been indebted to the charity of one of our citizens for a place to store its hose and hose cart in the’ southern piu-t of the village. In order that the fire ap- plaratus stored iii that locality may be properly protected and cared for in the future, an ap propriation of §1,500 is asked for as appropriat- e :l in resolution No. 12. E l e c t r i c L i g h t s . — Particular attention is exiled to No. 5, appropriating 33,000/for; light- fig the streets with forty-one, or more, -.elec tric lights. No contract has been made with a ly company, but it is proposed to advertise for bids, and for the new board of trustees to accept the lowest bid. This is a m atter that should receive tlie careful attention of our cit izens. . . . _ , The other special aDDropriations submitted will no doubt receive that attention whlcn tneir importance deserves. L it i g a t i o n s . — The village has three law suits on hand. The case of Rhetta Rounds Vusdtaided adversely, the jury awarding her $1,008. From that decision an appeal has been tsikeh which has not yet been argued. The case of Hannah Stebbins against tlie vil- .ge, in which she recovered a verdict of 5200 , still on appeal and. undetermined. _ - The case of Elizabeth Nelson against the .llago is still pending in Justice Court, a trial )t having been reached. All these cases are to recover damages re ceived from alleged defective sidewalks. Tho tizens are required to keep their sidewalks n a safe and proper condition, and any neg- lffot on their p art is sure to bring, sooner or liter, cost and trouble not only for them, but Mr the whole village as well. D e s t r u c t i v e F i r e s . —We have suffered from- number of small fires, which, by the efficient re department and a plentiful supply of wa- r were prevented from becoming dangerous and destructive conflagrations. The most dis- astrous was the destruction of the J, L. open-- c£r & Co. carriage and sleigh manufactory. [P r o g r e s s o f O n e i d a .— Generally, the vil lage and its citizens have been prosperous, the village has grown -in population and material vvealtli, and the prospect for the future was never brighter hanking the trustees, officers and citizens for their valuable aid and advice in the man agement of the village affairs the past year, tfi° ^ 01 c h 1 r ^ es ^ p o l l e y , CHIEF ENGINEER’S REPORT. To the President and Trustees of the village of ?have the honor to herewith submit the fol- 1 (Swing report to March 8 ,1HS7.

The expenses the past vear.were twenty-one hun dred and sixty dollars (§2,1150), and the appro' llriation only four hundred and fifty dollars («450), leading seventeen hundred and ten dol lars (&1,710) that has been raised by subscrip tions from a few of our public-spirited citi zens It is my opinion that all money needed ;j,v the department should be raised by taxa tion, and then all tax payers bear an equal Jhare of the expense, I would — this onelda, N.

In five ^ninutes by the watch they were dead. There was poison enough in the perspiration that came out of a man washed as clean as possible to kill them.
