Putnam Woodward, registrar of ers, was inclined to be indignant ursday morning when he read The lletin's story relative to how the sliots displayed in the window of a stwich store were regarded by some the voters and oMeials down ther claims that they are incorrect narked ls not true, he declares. The assumption that the ballots in sestion are Improperly marked and \isteading is due simply to the over- sight of the Norwich people who have riticised them to remember that some towns in this state vote for five se- ectmen Instead of three. Registrar Woodward acceded to a wquest that the ballots in question, whieh were prepared for instruction the v n Kiliingly before the annual town meeting in October, be aned to a Norwich man, that other like those to be used in Nor- the approaching state election » marked for display accord- ng to the rules he had followed. If s assumption be true that no new set of ballots wers marked in Nor- ich, but the Killingly ballets i plaved instead, it I8 easy to under- tand why they have been adversely ommented upon. Killingly elects five selectmen each year and the electors this town are entitled to vote for three of the six candidates nominated r places on the board. In a town hat elects only three selectmen it is ot allowable, of course, to vote for re _than two of the nominees. Therefore the criticism. The ballots are correctly marked for use in Kill- wich ngly If the same cannot be said of hem relative to the use of them in orwich. LETTER TO THE EDITOR. Registrar Woodward’'s Statement.

After being out for four and one-half hours, the longest time that any jury has deliberated in this city since the Manson murder trial, eral years ago, the twelve men who heard the evidence in the case of Louis H. Gobin vs. George Frink, commenced Wed- nesday, returned to the court room at 5.3 Thirsday afternoon and reported a | disagreement. None of the jurors had had anything to eat since morning and | they were a fired and hungry group when they finally agreed to disagree. | As a matter of fact. Judge FHolcomb, the court officials and the attorneys | also want without their lunch, and the first bite that they got to appease their appetites was hurriedly taken just be- fore the § o'clock trains pulled out. It was about five minutes of 1 when the jury first retired. They stayed out an hour before returning the first time | to report a disagreement. Judge Hol- | comb ordered them to return for fur- ther consideration of the case. After a time the jury again returned, this time to ask for Instructions as to cer- tain evidence that had been submitted. Their .next appearance was for the purpose of geiting a report in conne tion with the request above indicated. Then they went out and stayeisout un- til they finally disagreed for good and all. It is understood that there was a deadlock, the jury being divided 6 and It was cision of finally decided that the de- the case be made by Judge Holcomb, which decision he will later file. The &nit is a relatively unimpor- tant action growing out of a oollision in Jun> of 1909 in this city between an automebdile driven by George Frink of Worcester an da top carriage to which Louis Gobin was driving a horse, that ran away and threw him out when the aceident happened. Gobin_ the plain- tiff, lives in Putnam. The jurors in the case were George M. Flint, Wind- ham: Lucien White, Ashford: Michael | P. Shea, Canterbury: Castius S.

With the passing of the west, its romance has faded. Its trappers and frontiersmen are found only in works of fiction. In the picture show the fea- tures of the strolling actor are seen beneath the paint of the Indian chief. the aborigine for warmth and the The deerslayer has lost his cunning and is caught napping by the redskin of the Bowery. Buffalo Bill has made his last farewell and there now re- mains only the cheap and gaudy im tation censored and approved by a committee of respectable citizens. Old John Deitz up on Thornapple creek tried his best to revive the wan- ing glories of the frontier and the good old days when every man was a law unto himself, but they shot him up with steel nosed bullets and rattled him with smokeless powder. It was an enfeebled echo of a heroic past. From up the same way there comes the story of how the 5-year-old daughter of Herman Bilgren, who lives two miles from Marshfield, saved her little brother’s life when a big timber wolf leaped in the yard and seized the child and_dashed off in the woods. She chased the wolf and screamed with such force that the “varmint” became frightened and dropped its prey “prac- tically unhurt” as the veracious chronicler tells us in his special des- patch. The wonders time works! It seems only yesterday that the eagle measur- ing 7 feet from tip to tip swooped of the woods and grasping In its tal- ons the creeping infant at the doorway sailed away to its nest, leaving behind a distracted mother and a father fran- tically dashing through the underbrush with rifle in hand. The panther in those days made night hideous with its cries. The black bear descended upon the settler's hogoen and stole his win- ter's pork. Ever and anon, the Indian, filled with firewater or righteous in- dignation at the wrongs suffered by his tribe, stole down upon the lonely cabin to slaughter its sleeping inmates Civilization has invaded the forest fastness. The panther no longer cries like a mewling infant nor roars like an enraged lion. The black bear has ceased to trouble and the farmer now has to apply to Washington for an in- junction against the Chicago por! packers, where formerly he could sit up o' nights and trust to his musket to_guard his pig-pen The past grows dim. night are falling.

Thursday night at the Mystic Hook and Ladder company the house had been decorated by the committee and a fine time was given. Grinnell's or- chestra furnished music for the first part of the evening. At 9 o'clock all | ware notified that the Woman’s Relief corps had prepared a fine supper in the G. A. R. banquet hall and aboout . ninety members and visitors enjoyed the New England supper.

Purdy, George Heydecker, Frank Balty and others. At the close a vote of thanks was extend- ed the committee, Stanton King, Wil- Ham Van Pelt and Edgar Williams, for the fine way the whole affair was car- ried out. Addressed by District President.

Thursday morning the new fire el gine that is being built at the J. D Lathrop Co. was demonstrated in front of his shop. A seven-eighths inch hosz was attached and a good stream of water was thrown over tha red build- ing across the street from his works. This does not seem to be satisfactory yet, but in ali probabllity Mr. Lathrop will make it right before it is finished.
