Fitts—Found He had Boen Dishonorably Discharged. Deputy Sheriff John H. Fitts of Hampton arrested William Archibald a deserter from the United States ar my since October 2. 1910, Saturday morning. Sheriff Fitts has had the papers ever since October 12, 1910. Archibald never squaled when he was arrested by the deputy sheriff, but somewhat surprised him by saying: “Sheriff, cross my name off your wait- ing list. Me and Uncle Sam is square.” In one of Archibald’s pockets was found a dishonorable discharge from the army, duly signed and dated Marech 3, 1911. Sheriff Fitts released the man and later remarked that Un- cle Sam should be a bit considerate with officers here in the wilds of Wind- hain and tip them off when they can- cel a job like this. Archibald lived at one time in Hampton and enlisted April 16, 1908, but deserted from Fort Ogelthogue, Georgia. Since his desertion he had been roaming about the count All of his relatives have since left the town of Hampton. SUES FOR $10,000. Miss Sarah Griggs, 15, Whose Hand Was Crushed in Press.

NEW FIRE ALARM SYSTEM Finally Installed—How the Switch- board Looks and Works. At last the Willimantic fire depart- ment is fully equipped with the stor- age battery fire alarm system—one that has been the desire of Chief Wade U. Webster since he took office. The Gamewell switchboard of five circuits in all, installed in the Bank street engine house in place of the old sys- tem in use for many vears. The switchboard is oak in natural finish, ten feet high and six in width, fitted up with the latest in the line of electric fixtures. It has switches and meters together with all the other nec- essary equipment. In place of the four circuits that existed under for- mer conditions, there are now five, -h whi is in itself a great ad .mt_age. The 1l circuit” was broken into. These circuits alternate, one set of jars discharging while another set is being recharged, The battery jars are charged every forty-eight hour THere are meters for the reading of amperage and \l)l(uge on each cuit, then there is one switch controls all for each individual also a ground test for that five circuits and switches circuit. There is negative and positive sides of the five circuits. An automatic stop cuts off the current when required so that there is no leakage back from the batteries. A large fuse board nicely equipped with large and small fuses protects the switcnboard -in the event of lightning or too great a quantity of electricity. The batteries are wn stairs in sep- arate rooms on a specially construct- ed rack of iron The rack is seven and a half feet in length. and seven and a half feet higt and contains shelves with . glass rails upon ‘h the glass jars with porcelain holders rest. There are cighty jars in the racl The system means a great big sav- ing for the city in the cost of main- tenance over the former system. It will also give much more satisfactory results. Great credit is due Chief Webster for his untiring efforts in effecting the change that he has long advocated. Under the old system he had much to contend with and was up against continual trouble hunting, especially during a thunder storm, and had to work many extra hours trac- ing out the trouble. The new system was finally voted by the common coun- cil and Chief Webster has given his spare momeants to the installing of the new system and is thoroughly familiar with its every detail in its minutest particular. He knows the workings of the system thoroughly and his knowl- edze will be of great benefit to the city. . At the Opera House.

DAmELs_on ; Specimen Ballots for Object Lessons —First Regiment Wins in Rifle Match—Bishop ~ Nilan ~ Confirms Classes at Dayville and Ballouville. Specimen ballots, duplicates of the official ones that will be used in the town election next Monday, were to be had from the registrars and other town officials of Killingly on Satur- day. Every elector who expects to vote may find it to his advantage to secure one and find out just what he must do to use it properly. The bal- lot law has been amanded and some important changes in methods of marking have been made. For instance, hereafter there will be no cross placed in the circle at the head of the party column unless the elector wants to veote an absolutely straight ticket. On the other hand, if he wants to vote a “split” ticket, he positively must not put a cross in any of the circles at the top of the col- umns, but put a cross opposite the name of each individual candidate for whom he desires to vote, whether the individual's name appears in one col- umn or another; allowing that & man only votes for one candidate in the democratic column he must put a cross opposite the name of every re- publican candidate that he wants elected. The elector also has the privilege of writing in the “Blank Column” desig- nated for the office, the name of any person, not printed in the ballot, for whom he wishes to vote for such of- fice. If a man wishes to vote a split ticket for selectmen, he may designate his choice for first selectman by plac- ing the figure in the voting space at the left of such candidate's name and place @ cross-mark "X’ in the voting space at the left of the names of - the candidates for selectmen for whom he would vote, an elector of Killingly being allowed to vote for three candidates for selectmen. Any other mark than the cross-mark “X used for the purpose of voting (or th, figure “1” used for the purpose of d ignating choice for first selectman) will render a ballot void. With such a lovely mix-up as is now on in Killngly as regards sclecting members of the board of selectmen and the possibilities for making errors in splitting tickets, it is incumbent upon every voter who expects fs vote other than a straight ticket to familiariz himself with the changes here ind cated that he may be insured against disfranchisinz himself by illegal use of the new ballot. As was the case last vear, when the modified form of Australian ballot was first used in Killingly. there will be a separate Lox and a separate ballo the vote on the license question for the votz on the constitut amendments_ providing for a limited session of ihe seneral assembly and empowering the lientenant governor to act as governor in case of the disabil- ity of the chief executive. Both of these amendments will have general support in Killingly for FIRST REGIMENT WON, Capt. E. L. Darh»e Returns from State Rifle Match. Capt. Eibert L.

The compet- ing team represented the Second res- iment; the coast artiller 'ps was not represented this year. The fol- lowing is the score of both regimental teams over the various ranges Regiment—200 yards, 24; 1,000 yards, 263 skirmish, 491; total, 1, Second Regiment—200 vard 600 vards, 3 1,000 vards, 280; fire. 315; “skirmish, 469 total It will be noted that the scores were very close intotal, there being a dif- ference of only 16 points.
