Hilditch, Enfield’s new town clerk, took office January 1st, succeeding John K. Blissland, who ‘has held the office nearly a dozen Y)c*ars. His term of office is for two | years and he is probably the youngest town clerk in the state. Mr. HHditch |18 23 years old, and was elected town ' clerk, and town treasurer on a citizen- democrat ticket at the October elec- | tion, Mr. Hilditch was born in Thompsonville, August 10, 1888. He attended the local echools, and after being graduated from the high school entered Cushing academy, Ashburn- Lhnm, Mass, remalining one. year. Then he went to Yale Law school, and was graduated with the class of 1910. While at Yale he was a mem- ber of the Corbey Court I.aw School society, and of the editoriul board of the Yale Law Journal. He opened a law office in Thompsonville in Sep- terber, 1910, and has been success- ful in his practice. On June 17, 1811 he married Miss May E. Little of Wor- cester, Mass., a former resident Somers.

Including today, only 28 days remain in which to raise the necessary $§7 000 to insure the locating here of the American Thermos Bottie company, which means that subscriptions at the rate of $2,300 a day, inciuding Sun- days, must be received in order to secure the desired sum. Three More Subscribers. Practically that amount was raised on Thursday, as thre> shares of the industrial company which will buy the land and erect the building were subscribed, totaling $2, Eight cor- porations ch will he henefited by the locating here of the new concern were seen, but it was impossible for the officials to donate the sum with- out the action of the directors, whose attention the matter will immediately brought, and subsecrip- tions, it is believed, will follow from them. The members of the commit- tee who have charge of this matter are working faithfully and William K. Hill states that he finds a great inter- est in the plan and tie general expres- slon of hope and belief that it will be successful, There is a long list of business houses and citizeng to be seen yet so that steady progress is expected dally. What Committeemen Say. Messrs. Hill and Jewelt stated on Thursday that the members of the committee are being congratulated ev- ery day on the opportunity given Nor- wich, and at the same time many questions are being asked about the company. They state that the South Ameri- can rights for the bottle are help by the company but none in England and Germany, but an option on’ these rights !s held by the American Thermos Bot- tle company. This will make the whole western continent supplied from the Norwich factory. In their pres- ent quarters they are turning out over 450,000 bottles a year, being four years behnind in their orders, and have been unable up to the present time to look for foreign trade. The Thermos building which they now oecupy is a 12-story structure, the company occupying the 3d, 4th, P to be the pr operty and erect the building for | MORE SUBSCRIBERS TO BOTTLE CO. Total of $11,250 Thus Far Pledged, While Half as Much More is E;pected from Corporations Which Will Act Thereon—What Other Contributors Think. 9th, 10th and 11th floors. As all the goods have to be handled during the process of manufacture on all these floors it causes much inconvenience, and makes it understandable why they are asking for a factory that will have but one floor. As soon as factory roow will per- mit, they will begin blowing their own glass, and, in fact, make many parts that they are now depending on other industries t> make for ihem. The assembling under one roof of all the trades that enter into the manufac- ture of the many articles on which they hold patents will maike a plant that every citizen of Norwich will be proud of. On each bottle made will appear the words, “Made in Norwich, Conn.,” and the whole world will soon Jearn that Norwich is th: home of the Thermos bottle, The committee believe that every one in Norwich should do their best to help raise the money nccessary to get the company here, as it is the best opportunity ever had and by no means an experiment. iew London raiged over $100,000 for a woman's | college and Norwich can surely raise 375,000 for an industry which means mere in many ways than a colluge would. The only way to make the city grow, it is said, is through new industries, and tnis one is a winner. Some of the Benefits. A few instances of the benefit to the city the company used from $8,000 to $12,000 worth of gas a year, and they will use electricity for power. It will mean that all real estate will increase in value, hundreds of new houses will be built and the grand list will show a decided increase, What Some Contributors Think. Other contributors are of the fol- lowing opinions as to the great value of the company locating here: The Parkac-Davenpoert Ce.. by Hen- ry B. Davenport, says: No business now located in Norwich was started ith such bright prospects as this| beliave in the old adage, “nothing ventured, nothing gained,” and I am glad to subscribe to a fund to be used for such a good purpose. It 18 one of the greatest chances Nor- wich ever had. Shea & Burke, by Daniel T, Shea, says: We can't afford to lose it. It is more than needed now, and I hope we will land it, which will be the means of getting other. We are will- ing to do our share. Norwich citizens | ought not to neglect this opportunity now, and then be so Murphy & McGarry, Murphy, says: of the idea. ing for such an industry for many years and now that the opportunity presents itself for landing such a highly recommended concern, every citizen should take hold and boost it along. If we lose this it will bad blow. It's time now for everyone to pull together. C. Morgan Williams sa I en- dorse what others have said about it. I consider it a good thing and Nor- wich will regret it if it lets the oppor- tunity go by. I believe that the nec- essary amount will be raised Rutherford C. Plaut says: We are seeking a most commendable manu- turing concern. It is something which is worth mortgaging the town to obtain. afterwar@s. by Timothy C.

Agrangements have been made by Attorney Alling of New Haven where- by the case of the stale vs. Joseph Tyler and state vs. Ira F. Lewis will come before the criminal superior court on Tuesday.

The two remaining arguments will be given this morning and after Judge Wheeler has charged the jury they will have it for their consideration. Mrs. M. C. Miller testified that her three daughters attended the Miner lawn party and reached home between 10 and 10.30, she having seen them run across the green after the party. She said Gore had been calling on her daughter Clara for two years. Gore was at her house when Whitney Ver- gason called after the party. Both went away in about 10 minutes. She did not hear what Gore said when her daughter asked him where he had been. Mrs. Josephine McNally testified that her daughter attended the party, re- turning home about 10.19, no one being with her. Five minutes later the Jack- son girl came for her apron. She did | not appear out of breath, stayed two or three minutes and left. She said on cross examination it may have been 15 minutes after her daughter reached home that the Jackson girl called. Hazel M. Miller testified to being at the lawn party. Daniel H, Gore testified that he met three girls after the party, among whom was the Jackson girl, They walked along as far as the McNally house. From there, he said, he went to the Miller house, having left the girls at the McNally house. He had a talk there with Belle Miller. Others who testifled were Mrs. Susan G. Gore, Stephen E.

Assentbling at the home and forming in line in Main street, the members proceeded through a lane of red fire and Roman candles. Headed by Tubbg' band, with Casper K.

At the hall from the time the parade arrived and filed into the attractive gathering place all was bustle and ac- tivity, with a throng of busy Elks and their friends finding something enter- taining all through the evening.

The pleasing address of the acting mayor was greeted with & burs! of applause, and the way was then clear for the progrgmme of the even- ing, which began with a finely rendered concert by Lang’s rochestra, which later played for dancing until midnight Around the sides of the hall are ar- ranged the booths, which prove points of attraction for the wares thev offer, helped out by the persuasive eloquence of the booth tenders and their active assistants. To the right of the en- trance is found the booth for fancy goods, being in charge of Mrs. John Vetter, assisted by Miss May Ansell, Miss Rose Driscoll and Miss Annie Driscoll.
