A special and important meeting of
The Knob Outing Club, to consider the
situation which has arisen from‘the
increase of the lease price and the
doubling of the 'bus service cost, was
held last night at the Mahackemo Ho
tel, and after a discussion of the sub-
lwt from every point of view for two
hours, it. was voted to obtain the senti-
meat of the whole club upon the prop-
ositlon to increase the yearly dues to
820 per year. ‘
About sixty members of the club
were assembled with President Rich-
ard H. Golden In the chair. President
Golden at the outset explained that the
present crisis in The Knob's affairs.
due in part to the increase in the rental
price from 81,350 to 81,800, by reading
a letter from Ross Burchard, son of
the owner of the club property. This.
together with the increased price of
the 'bus service make a continuance
of the organization on the present barn,
is of $15 with the present membership.
prohibitive.
The ’bus service is estimated to be
81,200, as against about $600 last year.
Mr. Banks has not. raised the price per
team, but he Insists that he has been
working the horses too hard on the
service, and that hereafter he will in«
alst that there be two busses Instead
of one.
A number of interesting matters were
brought out at the meeting. The dues-o
tIon of how many members would re-
main in The Knob if thé proposed new
club at Dorion'e Point succeedes was
asked, and It was pointed out that the
result would probably be the dissoluv
tion of The Knob.
Ross Burchard, who was in atten-
dance, was asked if his father would
give a three years' lease of the proper-
ty at the increased price. and he re-
plied that he would. To make sure he
called his father over the telephone
and confirmed this statement. the only
stipulation being that the lease be
made subject to the sale of the prop
erty. Mr, Burchard, .lrL, stated In his
letter to President Golden that his
father has a party who wishes to hire
The Knob at a figure in excess of
$1.800 a year. but he did not wish to
make the change this year. 'Mr. Bur-
chard also said at last night's meeting
that the net income from The Knob
property had net boon large, To Illus-

in the Selectmen’s Office To-
night '
Another meeting of the lioard of
Intimate and Taxation will be held
this evening at. the ofilce of the select-
men to further discuss the legality of
the matter of appropriating 85,500 for
the town's third share oi the cost of
the new bridge which it is hoped will
be erected over Meadow street.
The only obstacle appears to be in
getting a favorable opinion from Town
Counsel Warner & oidsohmidt, and it
is understood that this has not yet
been received. Selectman John Del/Inc
this morning expressed the opinion
that the Board of Estimate and Taxa-

Last evening was the first in a series
