The Jubilee Book, containing a complete record of the celebration of the 230th anniversary of the founding of the town of Norwleh, with complete illustrations, containing at least 100.- 000 words and 50 pages of portraits and scenes of decorated streets and sections of the parade, etc. The Bul- letin hopes to have the book ready for livery early in Deeember. If you Ziave not ordered one, fill out the cou- pon printed eisewhere and mail to the “Business Manager of The Bulle- tin, Norwich, Conn.” THE ELM SHORT LIVED. We do not think of the American elm_.as a short-lived tree, but those who have closely studled them say that the average life of an elm is 150 years, to 1,000 years and more for the ak, and 2,500 to 3,000 for the big ce- dars on thaePacific slope. The Boston Transcript, discoursing upon the age of the elms, calls at- tention to the fact that authorities question if any vestige of root or stump is In existence of an elm of three hundred years. The rapidity with which the elm grows and the great size it soon attains blind the world to its short term of New Englanders the “old elm temporancous with the old village, but when we reckon the age of our average old homestead, we find that the elm which was generally planted some Mttle time after the first settle- ment 18 little over two hundred years in_age. By measurements it has been found that during the first seventy-five years the annual Increase ranges from about two to seven-tenths of an inch in di- ameter. From this time up .to 125 years the annual increase ranges from two and a half to five-tenths of an inch in diameter. During the third period the annual increase is only from elght to ten-hundredths of an inch. A recent measurement found a tree seventeen feet and ten inches in circumference. As in 1888 it was sev- en inches less, it can readily be seen that in twenty-one years it has gained an average of a little more than ten- liundredths of ak inch In diameter. This shows that the only way in which these graceful trees can be Xept up Is by continuous planting, and that neglect to plant elms at inter- wvals means the final loss of these trees to roadsides and parks. THE FIRST AEROPLANE. We are right on the verge of an era of firsts. It appears to be a more distinctive thing to be the owner of the first flying machine in a city than to have been the owner of the first antomobile. Who do you sup- pose will be the first flylng man of Norwich? He must be & man of meoans and a man of pluck, of course, and perhaps he is thinking about this very venture now, Rodman Wanamaker s the first man to own an agroplane in Philadel- phia, and it Js not of American make, but Bleriot monoplane, built in France. Speaking of this acquire- ment, the Philadelphia Times says “Until the news of Mr. Wanamaker’s purchase r when Philadelphia’s initial interest aerial navigation would be shown. In fact, the appearance of things was that every other city was far in ad- vance of us in the ownership and op- eration of aeroplanes, “Every Philadelphian ought to be proud of a citizen like Mr. Wana- maker, who Is sufficientl interested in the most wonderful science of this generation to invest in one of the first flying machines on the market. Aviation is still in the experimental stage and by this purchase Mr. Wan- amaker becomes one of the experi- menters, “May ‘he have many pleasant flights.” The Pulletin might say as much as that for the citizen who first gets into the air in 1909 form. AN ATTRACTIVE COUNTRY. 1t is reported that when the British battleships salled away from New York after the Hudson-Fulton celebra- tion that they left 200 British tars be- Dind who found New York so attrac tive that they could not break away, while it is claimed that only three men from the French ships failed to re- turn. There Is rothing strange in the difference, since men of the same blood are attracted to one another naturally, and in this country theré is much which is inviting to a British sailor, for he finds large freedom and warm fellowship on every hand. Na- val men get the wanderlust and may easily become adventurers, and de- serters are common alike to all navies at times. It is probable that many of them will return to Great Britain, bat some of them may become per- manent citizens, and it would not be strange should a few enlist in the American navy where they would be an eflicient addition, THE HIGH PRICE OF FISH. The fish market like the meat mar- ket is fast becoming the place of high priced food—the day of cheap proven- der appears to have passed awa: Whoever thought that swordfish and Lalfbut would ‘sell for 19 cents and 40 cents 8 pound at the wharf. This is what is reported from Boston as hap- pening on Monday: “Halibut is scarce in Boston; there- fore when fishing schooner Elva L. Spurling, Capt. John Watson, came to T whart thls morning and her cap- tain apprised the fish merchants of the fact that he had on board 225 pounds of the fish, that there was nearly a riot on the wharf to pur- chase the halibut. There was push- ing, shouting and pandemonium gen- erally, which served to quicken the pace of the wharf policemen even. As a rule halibut is valued at twelve 1o fiftéen cents a pound, but this morr it was morth nearly three times a much to Captain Watson. He sold his | catch at forty cents a pound. The man who bought it, Michael O'Don- nell, made his bid while he had Cap- tain Watson's neck in his arm and by shouting his price into his ear at such close yuarters that some of the other Mids were indistinguishable. “Othes, kinds of fish bringing good prices at the whart are swordfish and | mackerel. During the past twenty- four hours 778 barrels of large and have been brought from Nova Scotia. The steamer Prince Arthur arrived this morning with 378 barrels and vesterday the fresh mackerel brought 400 barrels. bought at a rate of 18 cengs apiece, [ miration as they took in the picture. jnounce the onmeme;; it sold for nineteen whereas in season the average price is | And gleaming satin showed about twelve cents.” Nothing in th o : o ¢ surprise the public in these days.
