St | president of the Woman ed four horses to a large moving van preparatory to leaving for Norwich early with a load and went to the hay loft to get some grain for the horses’ dinner and discovered that the hay was ablaze. He hastened for water, but realized that he could not do any- thing singlehanded and therefore pull- ed in the alarm. The Alerts, Monties and Excelsior Hook and Ladder com- pany responded quickly and under the leadership of Chief Webster did ef- fective word and confined the flames to the bulldings above enumerated and soon got them under control by vigor— ous fighting from all sides. The furnishings of the house were removed guickly and the burning hay pulled out after quite a struggle to the yard. Mr. Boucher, who occupied the upper tenement, lost a fine power boat that he had just completed and was about to launch. He valued it at about $1,000 and he had no insurance upon it. He had $600 of insurance upon his household effects. The boat was on the roof of the wagon shed connecting the house and barn. Mr. Boucher worked until 11.30 o'clock Thursday evening finishing up his hand-made boat and was to have taken it to South Coventry and launched it in Lake Wangumbaug Friday. The north end of the house was somewhat damaged upstairs and the interior flooded with avater. The loft where the hay was stored is a_total loss and the shed between the house and barn is pretty badly scorched. The T. R. Sadd company had insur- ance of $1,000 on the place. Foley & Henry carried no insurance upon their stock and were unable to estimate their loss Friday. Mr. Stimpson had no insurance and his loss is principal- Iy by water and is only slight in com- parison to the others. Mr. Boucher figures that his loss to household ef- fects is in the neighborhood of $300 and the boat is a total loss, as it was not insured. . ‘Chief Webster, who is also fire mar- shal, has been investigating the prob- able cause of the fire and was in con- ference with the police Friday. No cause for the fire could be assigned Friday, although some are of the opin- ion that it was of incendiary origin. Ready for the Motorists. Everything is in readiness locally for the Ali-Connecticut reliability contest and it is expected that a large crowd of auto enthuslasts will congregate along Main street about noon. Alder- man E. F. Whitmore of the committee has been very painstaking in the small— est details. Press badges were jssued Friday. PUTNAM BANKRUPT | Ordered to Make Full Disclosure of best vacation that you ever; His Assets. At the examination of Morris Dia- mond of Putnam by Attorney G. W. Melony in the local bankruptcy court Thursday it was brought out that the bankrupt had owned a horse and wagon not aceounted for in his sched- and he said he sold the rig on 21, five days before the petition in bankruptcy was filed, for $195, and that he used $65_of the proceeds in paving a lawyer for instituting bank- proceedings, the lawyer paying ual court fee and taking the re- mainder for his services. Diamond also said that with some of the money he had paid a grocery'bill. He has assets of about $1,000 and liabilities of about $1,900. An order was issued for him to produce his bankbook and any other papers bearing on his business that he might have in his possession, TO CELEBRATE -FOURTH. Preliminary Meeting Looking Toward General Organization of Committees. The general committee appointed at Wednesday night's informal .confer- ence at the home of M Capen, . held a meeting Thursday night at the home of Mrs. C. C.

At the meeting Wednesday night, at which representatives of the city and town governments, schools, churches, the Central Labor union, Board of Trade, Business Men’s association, Woman's club and other organizations were present, two different plans were suggested, one the organization of a large civic improvement society, to in- clude in its membership all citizens who might be willing to join, and the other the formation of a “community council,” its members to be the presi. dents or other representatives of or- ganizations already existing. These iwo plans were under comnsideration Thursday evening, ag was the matter of appointing various sub-committees, including one to arrange for a Fourth of July celebration. It is planned to hold a big mass meeting in either the town hall or the opera house, later, when the plans for the proposed organization will be ful- 1y disclosed and an appeal for support from the public made.
