FUNERAL, The funeral of Louis Heneault, who died in Elmville, was held from St. James’ church Thursday mornimg at 9 morning at 9 o'cclock. Rev. J.

That lease is soon to expire, and it Is understood that a five vear remewal would be agreed to by the man now running the farm. There is a guestion, however, as to whether the giving of such a lease would be for the best interests of the borough, and the matter will not be decided until the board has fully in- vestigated the pros and cons of the sit- uation. It may prove desirable for the bor- ough to retain only such a part of the property as is needed for a. filtration plant, and if this proves to be the ~as: it may be decided to sell the remain.

MISSING EDWARD HARRIS. Well Known in Putnam—Family Sum- mer Residents of Putnam Heights. There is considerable interest in Putnam in the disappearance of Ed- ward T. Harris, son of Dr. Harris of Provigence, a wealthy restdent dur- ing the summer at Putnam Heights, and a voter in this town. Young Har. ris, suffering from a nervous break- down, nas been receiving treatment at a sanitarium near Kingston, N. Y. His mother recently visited him there and he accompanied her to the train when she was leaving. He did not re- turn to the institution: as it.was ex- pected he would and he has not since been seen. The boy is 17 years of age, Advertisements in New York papers of Thursday offer a reward of $1,000 for information as to his whereabouts. The advertisements deseribe him as quite tall and siender and of nervous disposition. He was well dressed when last seen. The published notices of his disappearance also suggest that he may possibly seek employment about some moving picture theater, as a ‘hotel bellboy, or perhaps as a farm- hand, Young Harris is well known in Putnam, where he is frequently seen during the summer months. Although he is accustomed to spend a part of each year here, he has not been or heard of hereabouts since his fI from the place where he was staying at Kingston. Not All Registered.

The area covered is in ex- cess of that included in a majarity of the teiephone divistons in the state, including, as it does, all the territory in the abolished Pomfret division. Pomfret, Pomfret Street. the Wood- stocks and Thompson all served from the Putnam office, the Massachusetts and Rhode Island lines being the lim- it of the division. Affects Local Property Owners. Putnam people are much interested in the announcement that the Dan- ielson Cotton company will abandon indefinitely the project of buflding a dam across the Quinebaug at Cotton’s bridge, because of the high prices ask- ed by river-abutting property own- ers for the damage that will result to their land by flowage. Many of these properties are in the town of Putnam, the town farm being one holding that was to be affected by the building of the dam. At Hartford Mesting. L. H. Healey of Woodstock, master of the state grange and secretary of the state association of tax collectors, was in Hartford Thursday to attend a meeting of the latter Erganization in the supreme court at the capitol.

All that we know about sleep is that we know nothing about it. The ven- erable John Bigelow—Poultney’s fath- er—wrote a book not long ago on “The Mystery of Sleep,” and left it more of a mystery than ever. A famous psy- chologist had lately considered the subject in a book that will cure the average case of insomnia if the victim attempts to read it. The effects of sleep are known, but mot its cause or conditions. = A medical journal says that brain workers should get all the sleep they possibly can, whether it is nine hours or only flve. Some men sleep slow and jothers fast. The sec- retary of a manufacturers’ association in Boston, a man verging on :middle age, has for years worked at high pressure amnd got along finely on an average of three hours' sleep a day. Most intellectually active men, how- ever, can’t knit up the raveled sleeve in less than eight or nine hours. They slaep slow. Everything is being investigated in this _‘nquisttive age.

Chili and Peru Quarreling. The withdrawal of the Peruvian le- gation from Chili creates once. more a critical situation between the South American republics mentioned. The relations of the two countries have been more or less strained for a con- e owing to the refusal of re the conquered proy- and Arica to Peru, as provided in the treaty of peace nego- tiated at the close of the war between the countries nearly 30 year ago. Dhe immediate cause of the renewal of the ill feeling was the expulsion of the Peruvian priests from the disputed provinces by the Chilian government. Whether the priests were interesting themselves in the political dispute be- tween the cBuntries or mot does not appear. but their expulsion has been undoubtedly construed by Peru as be- ing connected with the Tacu-Arica dispute. he trouble between the twe repub- lics, alfhough of long stdnding, is very difficult of adjustment. Although, ac- cording te the treaty, Chili was ob- ligated to restore the provinces to their old-time sovereignty at the end of a period long since past, the new inter- ests that have developed since the treaty was entered into have rendered the Chilans unwilling to release their hold on the rich prize they won by force of arms.—New Orleans Picayune.

French and his wife separated about a year ago. Just What Everybody Knew Before. ‘The inquiry at the statehouse into the high cost of living is getting about where we supposed it would. Men In various lines of trade come In and tes- tify as to the cost of articles in which they deal and ag to thelr theories con- cerning the reasons for any advance in prices there may be. Occasonally one comes along to assert that the prices of his »00ds have not risen. The man- ager of a department store was before the commission last week telling how many things which go to fAtUng wp house are as cheap as they were fve or ten vears ago and how some things are even cheaper. He allowed that a young couple could go to housekeeping as inexpensively as they could several years ago; but he aid not say, or If he did he’ was not reported, that the tendency to buy more things for the house is very marked, and that the shopkeepers are. not backward about encouraging it. But it need: mission, and no expenditure 000, to’ bring this truth befs public. The newspapers hav persistently calling attention to this phase of the cost of living probiem, as well 26 to everything which has so far been stated at the Boston hearing. By the way, one of the witnesses at that hearing laid the blame of the entire agitation on the newspapers, and no doubt_some of it belongs to them.— New Bedford Standard. Taft and Connecticut Boys. President Taft is_especially Connecticut boys. Whenever he meets with a clump of them there ls some- thing doing. A group of them was here this week from Hartford, where they attend the Noah Webster school They were presented to the president, and when Mr, Taft learned that they were from Connecticut he wag delight- ed. The president was insistent on learn- ing their names and made each boy answer up distinctly. Each was in- clined to say Harry, or John, or Reg- inald, as if none had another nam “You must speak out loud your other name, boys,” Insisted the presi- dent, and as each boy so introduced himself he heard with delight ti:e pre ident repeat his name. One boy was named Bulkeley. “Are vou related asked Mr. Taft. “I am his grand nephew,” said the boy “Good,” said Mr, Taft. Then he called Secretary Carpenter to him to give the boys cards of ad- mission to the White house, learning that the youths wanted to sée the in- terior of the building. “One thing we did not dare ask him to the senator?” and yvet we wanted Lo know very much,” said one of the boys on ‘eavi the executive offices, “and that wa that the president pose with us in a picture.

This is the time of year when person gets discontented with his sur- roundings and wants to flee to the seashore, the mountains, or the fishing pools. It is a good thing to do, good for the body and the soul. But every body cannot do that. It takes money and time, and most of us fellows are not smeared with the filthy lucre—(not to reflect upon those who are) and %o have to stay at home and court the blessing of one’s own penates. But we have a scheme for all those who are not doomed to some rampant summer resort; and that is to get up these mornings at 5 o'clock, and go forth in the gray dawn, when the birds are starting their songs, and the buds are beginning to break into bloom. Atlantic City and the White mountains are pale and insipid compared to an experience like this. These lovely mornings, now and on through the summer, are made for souls that can appreciate the beauty with which God has festooned this t world. Get up and see. Don't To® our word for it.
