Changes Pleasing—Jadeph D. Hall's Funeral— Observance of Memerial Day. In view of recent happenings in ‘Westerly, the conclusion is forcing it- seif upon Danielson people who have Known about the affair that the recent robbery of the office of Dr. O. C. Sharpe, dentist, was the work of the same persons 'who operated so suc- cessfully in the Rhode Isiand town. The local Tobbery wds reported to the police last week and investigation of the matter taken up by State Police- man Robert Hurley of Hartford, but because of certain circumstances and during the working ot of a theory by the officers in the hope that an arrest might be made, very little has been said about the matter, and it will no: ba generally known until this morn- ing. Approximately $100 worth of teeth and platinum were taken from Dr. Sharpe's office. As said in the West- erly correspondence of The Bulletin, it is evident that the thisves were well versed in all that pertains to the labo- ratory worlk of dentists, as they select- ed the teeth that were the most valua- ble on account 6f the platinum pins, piatinum being worth more than gold. Tt is probable that the robbery of Dr. Sharpe's office was committed dur- ing the noom hour. The doctor has heretofore made a- practice of leaving the outer door leading into his recep- tion roomr unlocked whilz he went ‘o lunch, locking the door leading from that room to the other rooms in his apartment. It would, therefore, be easy for a person to pass from the street into the reception room without arousing suspicion and work on the locked door at lelsure. It is not known that any of the other dentists in Ban- jelson have had visitations from the thieves. P. & D. PROSPECTS Encouraging to Borough Residents— Under New Control Road Business Might Double. There was more than passing inter- est in Danizlson Tuesday in the print- ed stories relative to ihe leasing by the New Haven road of the Providenca and Danielson line for a period of 599 vears. Particular notice was attracted from local peopls by the paragraph which stated that $250,000 would be made available for extensions and im- provements. This Providence and Danielson line has never had the amount of patronage it might have se- cured if the roadbed beiween East Killingly and Providence and the rails that stretch over the same distance had been of such a character as to per- mit of a reduction of the running timé Dbetween Danielson and the Rhode Isi- and capital. Danielson people and those of sur- rounding towns would naturally have turned to the P. and D as the most direct route of getting to Providence, but to sit for nearly three hours in a car that travaled much of the distnce at slow speed and over a rough road- bed has not proved attractive and the | great percentage of through passenzer business has followed the old channels of traffic. The fecling hére over the leasing of the road is one of satisfaction. Tt in- spires the hope that the P. and D. w:il be put upon the same footing as to equipment and efficiency as marks the operation of other elsetric ecastern Connecticut. It is railroad men that such changes and improvements as the new lessees may make would imply reducing the run- ng time to at least two hours be- tween Providence and Danielson. Wjtn such a probability put into effect the indicated results are very attractive to contemplate. The rate of fars b> tween Danielson -and _Providence, 65 cents, is 5o low that if the inconven- jences that now attend the making of the trip were removed passenser busi- ness would likely double in a short time. Much of this business, it may be =aid, would be new business, not traf- fic attracted from other roltes. The cheap fares would be the incentive. With the possibilities and probabili- ties of what may be expected under the new control further announcement as to plans will be awaited hers with great interest. The prospects are ac- cepted as altogether satis FUNERAL. said by Joseph D. Hal Funeral services for Joseph Davis Hall were hzld from his home on Hutchins street Memorial day at noon, Rev. Elliott F.

He fell in a steaming washboiler and was . © scalded.” Anty Drudge—*‘Yes, it is a pity. Why women will beil . clothes, when it is not only dangerous but a useless nuisance, I can’t see. Imust tell Mrs. Blank how much easier and better she can wash her clothes with Fels-Naptha in cool or lukewarm water without boiling.”” Have you the once-a-week backache? Do you know what causes it? Simply long, continued bending and straightening over a washboard. But you cannot afford to have a wasn~ erwoman or send clothes to a laundry. What are you going to do? Do your washing the Fels-Naptha way and Fels-Naptha will loosen the dirt so that ' a few light rubs will take it out easily. No boiling needed—only cool or luke- warm water, winter or summer.
