Through Attorney Seeks Help from the Board of Relief—Matter Goes Over to Tuesday Next. The American Thread company &ppeared before the board of re- lief and board of assessors in joint meeting convened Wednesday after- noon in the rooms of the board of se- lectmen through its repres ative, ex-Attorney Generai Wil- liam A. King. The attorney appeared before the two boards and sought re- lief for the American Thread company from the assessment as fixed on the company's holdings in the town of Windham. Attorney King alleged that in mak- ing the company’s assessment $2,500,- 000 the company’s.officials felt that there was a feeling against them. He admitted that it was not go much & question of money with them as of feeling. He maintained that the local plant—all that is here of a taxable nature—figured approximately $4,000,- 000, including the old plant purchased from the Willimantic Linen company, together with the new mills and addi- tions constructed since by the Ameri- can Thread company, and therefore he would not have felt at all hurt if their assessment had been fixed at $2,000,- 000, or 50 per cent. of the value of the plant. He further said-while the reso- lution passed at Tuesday evening's town meeting did not technically say that they should not pay a tax on their new bleach house that was built last year and was not completed on Oct. ist, the spirit of the resolution in- dicated this particular piece of prop- erty. The board informed him that if the American Thread company wanted to make a clean showdown of their real holdings in the town that they were ready to entertain them and if the re- sult indicated that the property was worth but $4,000,000 that it would be assessed at ,000, but if it should be shown that it was worth $6,000,000 it would be boosted to $3,000,000. At- torney King requested a little time to obtain a statement, If there was any to be given by the American Thread. company, and said he would acquaint the board of his findings in the matter not later than Tuesday next. May Have Relic of the Maine. A communication from the secretary of the navy has been received by Town Clerk Frank P. Fenton relative to the distribution of the relics from the bat tleship Maine. A blank was enclosed that must be filled out and forwarded to the navy department in conformity with an act of congress approved Dec. 22, 1911, and then the town of Wind- ham wiil get a portion of the wrecked battleship Malne. The town, under the provisions of the act, will have to pay the charges incident to the pack- ing and transportation of the relic that will be awarded the town. Town Clerk Fenton has been in touch with the navy department ever since t summer, when the question of securing a relic for the town of Windham was brought to the atten- tion of the board of selectmen, of which James J. Tew was chairman, by Attorney Thomas J. Kelley. ¢ It is expected that the town will se- cure the relic within a few weeks and then the matter of a place for the lo- cation of the same will have to be settled. OBITUARY. Mrs. Benjamin E.

Martin Waterhouse, who was ap- pointed trustee of the bankrupt estate of William R. Harrington, has de- clined to serve. Tuesday Attorneys | Thomas J. Kelley and George E. Hin- | man, representing the bankrupt and creditors, appeared before Referee in | Bankruptcy A. J. Bowen and suggested the appointment of Dwight A. Lyman. Referee Bowen said that he had every reason to believe that Judge Lyman would make a most admirable trustee and he would like to appoint him, but under the law in the matter he felt that there should be another meeting of the creditors before such an ap- pointment was made. It was therefore agreed that such a meeting should be held March 4th. Just as soon as an- TOLEDO, OF 0HIO, CITY OF s County, ss. rank- J. Cheney makes oath that he is senior partner of the firm of F.

These exemptions have been made in the past, but at the last session of the general assembly a bill was passed giving the veterans, or old soldiers, rather, 330 a year in lieu of that exemption from taxes. As there is a question as to the constitu- tionality »of the law in question, and the matter is now before thé supreme court of errors, Tax Commissioner W. H. Corbin has notified the boards of relief that he has been informed that a decision cannot be rendered before the March session of the court, and in view of this phase of the case sug- gests that the matter of exempting old soldiers or\veterans be carried out this year as heretofore. * There were no appearances up to noon before the board znd the time was spent by the members discussing varlous matters that had been called to their attention relative to the tax lists. The town meeting’s action on Tuesday evening came up for consid- eration and the members expressed their opinions as to its effect on the present board of relief. This was a strictly confidential question between the members of the board itself and was not given publicity in any form. Judgment for Plaintiff. Judgment by default was granted the plaintiff Wednesday morning in the action of Edward Skurka of this city vs. Banslaw Kopik of Eastford. The action was for the recovery of $100 that wag for a deposit for the sale of a farm. When the plaintiff discovered fraud in the claims concern- ing the acreage of the farm he asked for the return of his money, but the defendant refused to give it back to him. Attorney P. J.

Refrain- ing from attending any form of pub- lic entertainment is the _restriction that the greatest number of local peo- ple are found imposing on themselves until after Easter. Among the men | siving. up smoking, drinking or swear- | ing are leading habits cast into the discard. The number of women talked with showed that giving up candy and | fruit was their chosen penance. One man said that the beginning of Lent always encouraged him to stick by or renew his New Year's resolutions; that he found it a means of renewing his purpose to overcome himself. i There is much sympathy in Daniel- son for John Griffiths of North Ster- ling, who suffered a loss'of about $1,- 500 recently when his barn with all of its contents were destroved by fire.

CALENDAR SOCIAL Held in Congregational Church Par- lors Tuesday Evening—Novel and Amusing Feature: The Calendar Social held in the Con- gregational church parlors Tuesday evening proved @ great success in ev- ery detail, and the many who attend- ed spent a delightful’ evening. Each month of the year was designated by a banner or poster bearing something symbolic of the month thus marked off. Upon entering the chapel each per- son was ushered into the month of the year his birthday occurred, and given a souvenir appropriate to his birth month. Eric Johnson as master of ceremon- ies presided in a most entertaining manner, giving bits of poetry or prose as the introduction of each month. The month of January, in charge of Mrs, A, L. Mansfield, entprtained the assembly with New Year's resolutions written by Harold Corbin, which wera read by G. E. Shaw, Mrs. Rufus Chase, Miss Grace hild, and Miss Edna Mann. February, Mr, Johnson, made a few remarks, and Kenneth Sharpe gave a plano solo. Hearts were the favors for all born in February. March, in charge of Miss S. Eliza- beth Clarke and Mrs. S, M. Wheelock, bore favors of St. Patrick’s flags. Mrs. Wheelock rendered very sweetly two vocal solos with violin obligato played by Mrs, C. L. Torrey. April, the month of showers, was represented by people holding up small umbrellas. . May, the month of violets, was in charge of Mrs. Eric Johnson and Mrs. Helen Willey. Violets were the favors, and Miss Gladys Murfey rendered sweetly The May Song, end C. C. Spratt made an address. For those born in June pink roses were presented, and a very bright and entertaining story upon Labor Saving Devices was read by Mrs. -Johnson. Appropriate to Leap year, a drdll recipe, How to Catch and Cook a Hus- band, was read. July was designated by the decora- tions of red, white and blue, with tiny American flags and snappers as favors. Just as E M. Warner started to give 2 little talk suitable to July there was 2 snapping and cracking much resum- bling in a small way the noises one used to hear on the Fourth of July. Following Mr, Warner's patriotic ad- dress, the audience arose and joined in the singing of America. Mrs. Frank Thayer and Miss Bertha Sargent were | the hostesses of the month. August, the vacation month, the guests enjoyed themselves by fanning with the huge paim leaf fans presented them. Refreshments were served an them. Refreshments of ices and waf ers were served from the parlor, which had been transformed into a summer scene, with blossoms and pink lights | The young ladies acting as waitresses were Misses Marjorie Burgess, Fredell Randall, Louise Weatherhead, Ger- trude Perry and Grace Page.
