A November, 1897, article of the "Electrical Worker" describes a dangerous situation in which Brother Albert E. Walsh of Nova Scotia was electrocuted in Dorchester while changing a 2,000-volt line for arc lighting, which was supposed to be dead in the daytime, and it is quite clear that our brother received the above-named rapid transit agent of death through bad insulation of another live circuit adjoining the one he was at work on of the Boston Electric Light Company.

"We have had two deaths within the month, Bro. Walsh and Bro. P. W. Flynn, who, I believe, was also killed while following his vocation."

A September 1898, article of the "Electrical Worker" reports Treasurer for the past five years, Dave Flynn, resigned his post on account of business calling him out of town. Morris Sheehan was elected to succeed him. The Vice President also resigned to follow his vocation out of town, and T. R. Melville, the Press Secretary, was elected Vice President.

Representatives from the Theatrical Mechanics Union of Boston stated their grievances before the Union meeting. After the delegates adjourned, it was voted that any brother of LU 35 caught patronizing the following boycotted theatres will be fined $5: The Park, Boston Museum, Hollis Street, Boston, Columbia and B. F. Keaths, and the fines be turned over to the Theatrical Mechanics Union.

The Boston Electric Light company has submitted a contract to the Mayor of Boston to furnish street lighting for the next 10 years. We have requested the Mayor to require Boston Electric Light to employ LU 35 men.
