Many Rumors Afioat. There are many rumors afloat re- garding sales of property and changes in the business portion of the city. Practically all of them are visionary ot the present time, although it is pos- sible a number will be made. Secre- tary and Treasurer C, B. Chapman of the Chelsea Savings bank stated on Tuesday evening that the bank had neither sold or purchased any prop- erty and that the Insurance would probably be settled by the end of the week.

After a social half hour Rev. Dr. V. A. Costabel was introduced by Rev. E. S. Worcester, and he spoke upon Me sina, where for six years he was | cated. He declared it to have been one of the dead cities of Italy, its business having gone elsewhere, there being very little of the frult marked from Messina which is really shipped from there now, American competition has hurt the fruit business there. He belleves the city will be rebulit mostiy from sentiment as thers are no indu tries there, Reinforced concrete w be used hereafter in construction w. and Japdnese engineers are on the wa there now to consult with the Itallans about reconstruction. The main street dropped thirty feet, and it was the sixth time the city had been destroyed. it will never be as large again as it was. He spoke highly of the Sicilians, believing them the best people in the world, He was given loud applause for his Interesting talk and answered many questions at the close. The Woman's assoclation served re- freshments at the close, consisting of sandwliches, cake and coftee, and a so- cial hour was spent, the affair-proving a.declded success.

By mortality reports received by the state board of health bulletin there were 1,359 deaths during the month of January. This was 80 more than in December and 193 less than in Janu- ry of last yvear, and 130 less than the verage number of deaths during Jan- uary for the five years preceding. The death rate was 15.8 for the large towns, for the small towns 15.7, and for the whole state 15.8. The deaths reported from infectious diseases wera 226, being 16.6 per cent. of the total mortallty. There were in Norwich 28 deaths during the month of Janary, repre- senting an annal death rate of 12 per thousand, four of the deaths, or 14.2 per cent. of the total mortality, being amcng children under § years. Deaths resulted from the following caus: Heart disease 7, diseases of the nerv ous system , consumption 4, la grippe 8, pneumonla 3, accidents or violence 1. all other causes 6, There were threo deathis in public institutions. In New London there were 29 deaths, Groton 10, Killingly 9, Plainfleld 9, Puinam 19, Stonington 16, Windham 13, Preston 1, Sprague 1, Brooklyn 1. Bast Lyme 1. There were no deaths in Franklin. Lebanon, Lisbon, North Stonington, Scotland or Chaplin. | During the month there was one case of searlet fever here, four of diphtheria and croup and two of con- sumption reported. Campaign for Better Ventilation. Dr. Townsend iIn his report says: The stato continues to enjoy excep: tionally good health, considering the season of the year. The death rate for the month of January Is about 12 per cent. lower than during the co.- responding month of last year and 9 per cent, lower than the average for. the past five years. The most gratifying feature of the month's report 1s the decline in deaths from the impure air diseases, pneu- monla, consumption and _bronchitls, there being about 40 less deaths from these dlseases than in January a year ago. This would seem to indicate that the campaign for better ventilation is producing some result, and that the practice of ventllation is becoming moré general, yet there is still room for great Improvement. Those who are occupying hot, stuffy living and working quarters run great risk of contracting lung diseases and should | know that an aburdant supply of purs fresh air 1s the most powerful agent for the prevention of these diseases. When the weather Is eold we should keep our bodies warm by clothing them properly and not by shutting out the fresh pure air. One of the crying needs of the pres. | ent day is better ventilation for our | steam ‘and trolley cars. No pertece | syetem for the ventflation of these cars | appears to have been yet devised, but conditions could be fmproved by more attention to the ventilators now in use. of the interurban trolleys are ularly bad iIn their ventilation, : conductors could to advantace be nstructed to pay some attention to this matter. The practice of allowing passengers 40 enter or leave a car by either the front or rear door aide bet- | ter to ksep up a cirenlation of pure air #han when only one exit Is used. Pas- sengers aleo should learn not to oblect to a little draft. but should remember that this draft will not injure them as much as breathing over and over again the stale alr in a crowded car. i % '$\ Surrounding Towns < e | ome | Groton.—Mrs. Willlam Welch of Wil- limantic is the guest of her son, M.

S. engineering de- partment by the New Haven railroad, reveals the fact that when the new ‘bridge is ‘érected the present bridge will have to be torn down. The new bridge is placed only 110 feet away from the old one, and the draw on the old bridge, if attempt should be made to open it, would not clear the new structure. It is evident from the plans sub- mitted that it is the intention of the company to build a new bridge very much one the same Hnes as the one now crossing the Connecticut river at Saybrook. = It would seem from this that if a highway for general travel or a pas- sage way for foot passengers on the new sbridge 4s to be had, it can only be secured at present through permis- sion of the New Haven railroad. Of course it s possible that If the requi- site amount of money to cover the cost of the work was forthcoming from the city or state, the rallroad company would consider the feasibility of add- ing a highway to the new bridge. It is understood that President Min- er of the New London Business Men's association will immediately appoint a committee of citizens to interview President Mellen as to his views upon the matter. Two bllls have been introduced be- fore the general assembly at this ses- glon relating to a bridge across the Thames. One {5 in the name of the city of New London petitioning for pow- cr to fssue bonds to the extent of $30.000 to pay for the acquirement and’ building of approaches to the present bridge crossing the river. This was drawn evldently for use in the event that the old bridge should be given to the towns of New London and Groton for the purpose of a public highway. 'This bill would make the users of the bridge, pay toll. The second measure, introduced by Representative Cronin, provides that whenever a new bridge is bullt across the Thames by a public service cor- poration that it shall contain a public highway. If this latter bill is prop- erly worded it would act as an amend- ment to the charter of the New Ha- ven railroad, and if passed by the general assembly would answer the purpose of compelling the road to add a public highway before it can build a bridge across the river. This atter bill provides that the cost of nilding the ‘additional section to al- Tow for a public highway be borne two-thirds by the state and one-third by the rallroad, and the maintenance of that art of the bridge fs provided or in the s Valentine Social at Congregational Church—Very Successful Affair Ar- ranged by Ladies’ Benevolent Socie- ty—Whist Party—Notes.

After the company Congregational chu were all present they were entertain- ed &t different games arranged about the room. At the fishpond, where Mis. Edward Hindle was in charge, hearts of gold were pulled out in great pro- fusion. Willlam Brierly showed the most dexterity and won a pretty valan- tine. Another attraction was a large heart in charge of Mrs. Charles Webster and the contest in pluning hearts upon this was exciting. Willlam Bailey pinned the heari nearest to the center and received a handsome double-heart pin for a prize. In guessing the names of flowers Miss Amy Pollard was first, and in the heert hunt Miss Mary Pol- lard secured the largest number. During the evening there were violin solos by Rev. D, B.
