Dr. W. P. 8. Keating, who has filled the office of city health officer for the past four years and is a candidate for reappointment,'took cxceptions to some things that were said anent the office and the manner in which the work had been done at the meeting of the board of aldermen Monday evening. mong_other things that Dr. Owen O'Neill sald was that the work of fumigation as being performed at the present time was “absolutely inade- quate,” for the reason it was not_ thor- oughly done, He said that these things could be and should be done right. Dr. that he does not agree eill and that the matter of disinfecting was done as well as it is possible under existing conditions. The work of tumigation is done half of the time by the physicians attend- img the cases and what he as heal of- | ficer did was done just as well as it could be. He used a formaldehyde candle that had the approval of the state board of health and which was used n many of the large cities of the F Besides he did this fumigating without compensation, aside from the salary as health officer. Regarding the quality of his work as health officer, he had endeavored to perform the duties as carefully and thoroughly as though there was a much larger salary attached to the of. fice. Tt was not a question of doing simply $25 worth of work each quarter but he did what there was to be done and took what the eity allowed for the work. Concerning any criticism that may have been made with reference to his’ work, the health officer said that the statement of the county health of- ficer, made at a recent mesting of the common council, to the effect that the work had been done faithfully and well and that he had been paid & ri- diculously low compensation, should be considered of some value.

Mt and was non-committal to a de- gree. It is said that one of the phy- sicians _present at the meeti had asked Dr. Keating if he would the office at $300 if he received the ap- pointment, and he replied that he would. He was then appointed & mem-— ber of the committee to appear before the board of aldermen Monday evening and ask for an iucrease in the salary, but later declined to serve on the com- mittee. The other members of the committee appointed to appear before the board were Dr. John Weldon and Dr. Louls 1. Mason. Dr. Keating said Tuesday that he was still a candidate for reappoint- ment as city health officer and was in the fight to the finish. He stated that he had worked hard for the best in- terests of the city during the past four years and with fear of no one and be- lieved that he had faithfully attended to the duties of the office; in every in- stance where he found conditions that he thought were not as they should be he had reported them to the board and recommended action.

Social Supper at Hooker House Hears Address by Tax Commissioner Corbin, ¥ A goodly number of the members of the Willimantic Board of Trade and thelr friends sat down to the second soclal supper for the season Tuesday evening that was served in the dining rooms of the Hotel Hooker. Landlord ‘Winter had provided an appetizing re— past that was thoroughly relished by those in attendance. The novelty of having the supper served in excellent shape was appreciated by the members and friends and it 1s intimated that some of the suppers to be held during the remainder of the winter may be served at the same place instead of in the banquet hall of the Board of Trade. After supper the company adjourned to the lecture room of the Board of ‘Trade in the opera house block and lis- tened to an able address on Taxation by State Tax Commissioner Willlam H. Corbin, who entertainingly and in- terestingly explained the perplexing subject in its varied phases. Among those who were present at the talk in the lecture room besides members were many citizens, especial- 1y taxpayers, who are vitally interested in the question. The evening's social time was one of the very best that has been given vnder the auspices of the local Board of Trade. Better Facilities at Town Clerk’s Dffice Men were busy Tuesday installing additional roller shelves and file cases in the vault room at the office of the town cleck. Tha installation of these fixtures will relieve the congestion that has considerably hampered attorneys and others who have had occasion to search the records. Grex Club to Play Manchester. Manager Harold Mott of the Grex club has everything in readiness for tonight's game in the Y. M. C. A. gym- nasium, when the local five will ‘stack up against the fast Manchester town team. Manchester has been playing fine ball so far this season and to- night's contest should prove an inter- esting exhibition. This will be the local five's second game of the season, but the members of the team have besn practicing hard and faithfully and are in condition to give a good account of themselves, At present it is not known how the {eam will line up, but Captain Burns will pick the team from the following list: Burns, Richmond, Jordan, Bradbury, Harrington, Mott and a number of others.

This helped the builders of the sewer in the south section of Danlelson and some of their men were put to work excavating on the street surface where the frost has been. CAME FROM WILLIMANTIC. Fakir Who Said He Was Michael Shea of Norwich John Luccy. Michael Shea, arrested for panhand- ling in Putnam and Attawaugan last week and sent to the jail in Brook- Iyn under bonds of $1,000 to await trial at the March term of the su- perior court, is not Michael Shea of Norwich. He is_John Luccy, 17, of 207 Main, street, Willimantic, and the blitheful youth has nof concetved the idea that his mother may be anxious about him. This _information is contained in a letter that Chief Pilling received from Lucey at the jail on Tuesday morn- ing. In the létter Luccy writes that he has been thinking his predicament over and has decided to tell the truth about who he is and where he comes from, He writes that he has decided that it is better to tell the truth and has made a plea that the officers be lenfent with him. Luccy explains that he gave a fictitlous name because he was ashamed of what he had done, but now he sees the error of his ways and promises to do better. The tone of the letter would indicate that the boy has really been doing some thinking since he was locked up last week. When first arrested Luccy sald that his name was Shea and that he came from Norwich: later he told the officers that his home was in Co- lumbus, Ohio. This time he is proba- bly telling the truth. Luccy s the youngster to whom State Policeman Hurley. Capt. John Murray and Dr. E. F. Perry rostored speech, hearing and the use of a bad- Iv crippled arm and leg after about two minutes’ treatment under fire. It was one of the greatest mind cures on record, The cure was made In the olicep office_at Putnam Jjust before Lucey was brought to Danielson for trial. Officer Hurley was notified by Chief Pilling of what Luccy now has to say about himself but no action wa staken in the matter on Tuesday. Tax Collector Getting Busy.

City Engineer F. Walden Wright Is engaged at work in the cemetery on ‘Woodstock Hill making a record of the persons buried there. The Woodstock Hill cemetery 18 one of the oldest in this section and contains graves dat- ing back into the latter part of the sevantceth century. The scores upon scores of years that have passed since the cemetery was first used has caused a confusion of records as to the per- =sone burled there, and Engineer Wright is to make a new record. It will be impossible to secure a complete list of ail those resting in the quaint spot, as the inscriptions on many of the stones have -been eitirely obliterated. Re- fardless of this fact, the work of list- ing the mames that can be read has been commenced. The work will re- quire considerable time. A fund has been raised by Woodstock persons to defray the expense. NEW HIGH SCHOOL Recommended by Special Committee— Nightingale Lot as Site. The report of the speclal committee appointed at the annual town meeting in October to investigate the needs of Putnam relative to high school accom- modationg will -ecommend the con- struction of a new high school build- faz and that the Nightingale lot at the corner of Providence and School streets be secured as a site. Recommendations relative to the use of the present high school after the new school Is built is that it be used for town and ety offices. The recommendations are along the lincs that have heen previously sug- gested and which meet the approval of many eitizens of Putnam. The present high school is conduct- ed under congested conditions. as was shown by the report of a committee appointed to investigate the matter, and a report recommending a new huilding har been exvacted. The proposed site for a new school is a beautiful tract of level land in the northeast corner of the city, and has always been regarded as a proper site for such a building as it is now suggested be located there. Few Changes Expected. L After all is seid and done, it is ex- pected that the transition of the bal- ance of power in the city government from the democratic to the republican party will be made without any fuss or feathers or any great shakeup among the appointive offices. There are a few places in which changes may be made, but they are not important.

There was a rumor, which could not be vertified, about town on Tuesday to the effect that cars on the electric road were to be run through from Worces- ter to this city without change. Such an arrangement was tried a few years ago, but it did not give satisfactory re- sults and was abandoned. At that time the cars were run through to Daniel- son. The crews on the Putnam divi- slon now only run as far north as Webster, where the cars on the Wor- cester division reach the southern ter- minal of their run. Airships Which Pass in the Night. Byron Lamondy is among the many that have seen some moving object ov- erhead that may have been the Til- linghast airship of Worcester. M. J. Richards of Danielson is another who claims to have seen an airship pass- ing over one night during the late summer while he was driving home from Moosup. D. A. R.
