The new building i8 ready in every detail for the four companies to make use of and it is.So greatly superior in all of its arrangements to tho stations now occupied by the different compa- nies of the fire department that the members are fearful that they may awaken some morning and find -that they have een dreaming. The station is modern in every par- ticular. The entire first floor is given over-to the apparatus, while the sec- ond and upper floors are divided into several rooms for use as social and business guarters.

Putnam was given an imitation Black Hand scare Wednesday when it was announced that Nicholas Rita, keeper of a local restaurant, had re- ceived a letter written in Italian and demanding that he, Charles Bore, and the Giraca Brothers, proprietors of a fruit_store, in_the court house block, get $50 of their good money together and have it ready for deliver- at an appointed place on Church street on ‘Wednesda-- evening. The letter, slgned by “An Assistant Secretary of the Black Hand.” was decorated with a drawing of a skull and crossbones, and contained the in- formation that if they did not de- liver at the appointed time they would be_roasted like meat. That was putting it strong, but the prospective vietims did not develop hysteria. over the ,matter. Instead, they, put it up,fo Captain Mu and Wednesday afternoon the cap came down to the police station with Charles Reno, 20, and locked him -up. Reno s a,cottoh mill operative and has been..in Putnam about three months. His boarding place is 224 Church street, He came here from Webster and from evidence obtained Wednesday eyening there is strong reason to believe that he is respon- sible for the threatening letter to Ri- Reno,_is a short, stocky fellow with a swarthy counmtenance and evil eve. He refused to talk very much, but what he did say contained several contradictory statements. He will be n.:remed in the city court this morn- 1 Two strong points that make the aecusation against Reno effective are that in his room on Church street Captain Murray found writing paper of the identical sort used in the Rita Jetter, and §n Reno’s pockets he found Jetters written in Italian which when translated established that the pris oner has previously tried this Blac Hand game in other places. ‘Another fact against Reno is that the Rita letter designates that the money was to be delivered to him. Reno explains this by saving that he was to be forced to deliver the money to some other mysterious third party under penalty of death. The letter was mailed ih Putnam and was post- marked 3.30 Monday afternoon. The threatened men are mot doing any worrying over the affair. FOUND DEAD. Body of William Webber Discovered in Cranberry Bog. ‘William Webber, an aged resident of ‘Woodstock, was found dead in a field near a eranberry bog in that town on Tuesday.
