IPUSH NEW TROLLEY T0 COMPLETION Contracts Signed to Complete ford Road—Engineers on the Work Monday at East Hartford End—Will Finish This to East Glastonbury At an adjourned meeting of the Nor- wich, Colchester and Hartford Traction company held Friday afternoon ‘at i o'clock at the office of the company in ‘the Central building, with a large as- tendance of stockholders, plans were adopted which it is stated will effect the early completion and operation of the road. These consisted of the signing of contracts for financing, building and managing the road. The engineers, un- der the new contracts, will be on the line next Monday preparing for a con- struction force, which Wil begin work at Silver street, Bast Hartford, where there is already a section of the road graded. The contracts signed at the meeting were with A. W. Burchard, represent- ing the General Electric company, and MacArthur Brothers' company of New York city, and Allen & Peck, Inc, of Syracuse, N. Y. One New Director. The name of E. A. Robinson of Ad- dison was added to the board of direc- tors, to fill a vacancy, making the ‘board now consist of Costello Lippitt. Clinton E. Stark, Henry M. Polock of Norwich, C. H. Dawley of Colchester, E. A. Robinson, A. O. Crosby, W. A. Strickland of Glastonbury, Walter Garde of Hartford and W, V. N. Pow- elson of New York city. The meeting ‘was adjourned one week, at which time the annual election of directors will take place. Will Consider Bond Issue, Upon the matter of a bond issue, 10 take care of the er building of the road, it was stated by one in a position to know that this would be a matter for the directors to determine upon as the bullding of the road progressed. It was stated that the new arrange- ment was in no sence a sale of the road, which it had been reported was to be brought -about, and it was alsc affirmed that there was no resignation of either the Norwich or Hartford di- Tects ors. Besides the number of stock- holders present, there were also sev- eral of the New York gentlemen who are to become interest in the V. East Hartford to East Glastonbury. The work on the road to be pushed now will be hurried along with all pos- sible speed from Bast Hartford to East Glastonbury. This is a section which already has ten miles graded, and it is the plan to forward the construction of this stretch so that it can be in opera- tion probably some time before the ‘whole road is completed and running, Power can be obtained at the Hartford end before the road constructs its own power house, rtered in 1907. The charter of this company was granted by the legislature in June, 1907. The corporation was organized shortly after, but owing to the panic of 1907 and its attendant financial depression nothing done until the fall of 1809, ‘Wwhen su) 8 were made and the allgnment determined upon, It was found that the people living along and adfacent te the proposed line were enthusiastic that the line be built, and backed their enthusiasm by subscriptions te & large amount of the preferred stock, Franchises were ob- tained and private of way secur- ed, and in Septe , 1910, uc- tion was begun at the Hartfe end, OLD SOLDIERS HEAR THEIR DEPARTMENT FFICERS. Sedgwick Post, G. A. R., Opened Sea- son With Rousing Campfire—Depart- ment Commander, Patriotic Instruc- tor and Inspector Speak. Sedgwick post, No, 1, G. A, R, held its first campfire of the fall Friday evening in the Buckingham Memorial with a record attendance, including besides the veterans, department offi- cers, members of the Woman's Relief corps, Sons of Veterans, and the Citi- zens' corps. At 7 o'clock there was a reception to the guests in the parlors. The exercises, weich were held in the haun the second floor, opened short- 1y before 8 o'clock, Commander Henry Hovey presided and presented as the first speaker Mayor T, C. Murphy, who spoke of the pleasure he experienced at being abl: to address the gathering and welcom- ing the out of town guests to the city. In closing e mentioned the reverence ‘which he felt for the G. A. R. and said that in Norwich there was nothing too good for the Grand Army. Department Commander Dougal. Department Commander W. H. Dou- gal of New Haven was the next speak- er, and he gave an interesting account | of the national encampment, held at | Los Angeles, Cal. The Connecticut | headquarters, he said, it was universal- ly agreed, was the star camp of the ‘whole gathering. - Over 600 persons T at the Connecticut head- quarters,and of these by far the great- er number were former residents of | Connecticut or had relatives here. Ome of the interesting features of the| Connecticat headquarters was the dis- | tribution of wooden nutmegs, of which, however, the supply was far below the demand. The parade, sald Mr. Dougal, was one grand ovation for the veterans. For more than a mile he walked on noth- ing but flowers, the streets lined with men and women who cheered as we passed. Later in the evening Comrade Dou- gal gave an interesting account of his experiences during the war when he lost his right arm. Patriotic Instructor Potter. Department Patriotic Instructor C. A. Potter of Danielson also told of ex- periences during the bloody battles of | the north and south. In closing his | remarks he urged that the veterans, the | members of the Rellef corps and Sons | of Veterans visit the schools on every | possible occasion to instruct the chil- | dren as to just what it cost to uphold the American flag.. They can all read the ristory of the war, but what ap- peals to them is the personal touch of | the story as told by one closely con- nected with the war. Interesting addresses were also mads | by Department Inspector Starr of New | London, Rev. C. H. Ricketts, Com- ! mander C. O. Murphy of the Sons of | Veterans, Past Patriotic Instructor W. | L. Goss and Mrs. Dorothea W. Balcom, | president of the Woman's Relief corps. Musical Programme. Two delightful cornet duets we:e rendered by F. Larue Bliven and Rob- | ert W.

Norwich, Colchester & Hart- Five miles of road was braded ready for the rails, and the bridges and cul- verts were in by December. It was thought best to suspend construction until such a time as the road should be effectually financed. Securing Financial Backing. To offset the sale of its securities, the services of Harry O. Hoyt were s He was made secretary of tl company and devoted his entire time to the securing of suftable financial backing. The closing of the present successful contract speaks for the thor- oughness of his labors. Owing to the amount of money involved and the uncertainty of financial conditions, the underwriting of the securities was a most difficult matter. At one time this summer the contracts on_practically | the same basis as those now signed were all ready when the death in an automobile accident of a New York business man who wasan jndispensa- ble factor in the mnegotiations set the ‘whole thing back for months. Realizing the importance of this road and its possibilities, the direc- tors felt that they should affiliate on- Jy with the strongest financial houses. Several opportunities to secure the sale of the bonds beth in this country and abroad were mot accepted, as they did not offer the financial strength de- sired. The firms signing the con- tracts are thtee of the strongest firms in their respéctive lines in this coun- try. The financial strength of the Gen- eral Electric company is well know as for MacArthur Brothers, it suffices to say that they have built roads in all parts of the world. A few of the mort notable in this country arethe Pennsylvania, Tilinois Central, W York Central, Union Pacific ang New York, New Haven & Hartford. Messrs Allen and Peck are managers and of erators of broad experience, having under their management traction lines in Albany, . Schenectady, Syracuse, Utica, and through the south. Predictions of Success. “Afiliating with these people insures the bullding of a high class road and 2 management which will develop large earnings. This road runs through the center of a valley, the area of which comprises one-fifth of the en- tire state. This district is well pop- ulated and has large manufacturing industries which today have no means of transportation except by team. The late A, M. Young, who planned and built probably more electrio roads in state than any other engineer, predicted that this road would within five years show the largest earning of any interurban road in Connecticut. The right of way will be sixty feet wide, allowing for double tracking of the line when required. It is pro- posed to run the entire distance from Norwich to Hartford over private right of way, except in the town cen- ters, thus making it possible to make the run between the terminals in a comparatively short time. The management is looking fer the hearty eo-operation of all those inter- ested in the success of the read) aided by this support very rapid prog- ress is expected to be made.

Such meetings do not happen, but are the result of xight living, coming from a changed hear) and Jite. A bright. and spirited paper on the ideal missionary meeting was given by Miss Stephenson. A meeting in the city of Boston was sketched with all the helps of moving pictures, letters from missionaries and a leader full of enthusigsm and vower. An invitation in taking riyme to aan appetizing supper was given by the social committee of the local society, to which all present responded. One Hundred at Supper. One hundred were seated at the at- tractive supper tables, 75 of whom were from the visiting societies, Near- Iy all the societies were heard from I answer to the rollcall as to the num- ber in each soclety and work done during the year. Three selections were rendered by the orchestra and a violin solo by Theodore Sterty. ‘I'he pro- grammes for the meciing were tast fully gotten h a fine etching of the First ( regational church. Evening Session. The audience room was comfortably filled for the evening session. Rev. G. H. Ewing led the pralse and devotiona. service. ~ Unfinished busines included appointing Miss M. E. Wattles junior superintendent of the Norwich union. Miss Alice Bishop of Bozrah was chosen delegate to represent the union | at the state C. E. convention held in Hartford next week. The speaker of the evening, Judge E. M. Warner, of Putnam, was then introduced. I was present in Hartford this morning, he said, where was the unveiling and dedication of memorials to Senators Platt and Hawley., An array of military, school children, citi- zens and veterans, all assembled to d» honor to these great men. Their steady deyotion to the Lord Jesus Christ was a lesson to every citizen of Connecti- cut and an inspiration. Senator Plats was credited with the foundation of the government in Cuba and the Phil- ippines. One strong peint made by the speak- er was that our New England people in their admiration of good schools put the intellectual above _the spiritual Parents, you are making the greatest mistake of your lives in not urging your children to arrange their studies With reference to going to the weekly prayer meeting of the church.

The Mizpah benediction brought to a close a service full of earnest thought and helpful suggestion. ASSESSORS HAVE ABOUT HALF THE LISTS ‘Pu'r Total Last Year Was 3,718—More Tax- payers Could Come in the Evening Hours Set Apart. The board of assessors for Norwich have now been in sesslon fifteey days and it was estimated by them on Fri- day that they have reeelved about half of the more than 3700 lists which have to be. handed h{‘ the property owners to the town. st year there was a_total of 8718 lists handed in. In the first week the assessors esti- mated that they recelved abeut 506 lists and the rate so far has been about 100 a day, Not se many people | have taken advantage of the evening | hours Wednesday and Saturday as the assessors expected would, but those whe find it hard to come around in the daytime can find the three ass: sors waiting for them on these two evenings in the week. There has been a very gemeral compilance with the request that the beard made that peo- ple weuld bring the figures to show the size of their lots and next yeag the task of the board will be greatly lightened in this respect.

Has Dissolved Partnership—Mill Here May Resume Under New Manage- ment. \ Givernaud Brothers' Bilk company, who consolidated with Rogers & Thompson Co., in February, 1911, and which has since been known as Rogers, Thompson, Givernaud Co., has dis- solved partnership, and the mill on Mechanic street was indefinitely clos- ed on Thursday. M. L. Bergstresser, superintendent of the local plant, reports that plans are being consummated by some mem- bers of Givernaud Brothers to organ— ize a mew company and operate the Norwich mill in the near future. When running full the mill has a wage dis- tribution of about $50,000 annually. Three years ago the plant here was refitted with 63 new looms and it has a dye house in which, could be placed | 40 more looms. When the Thompson and Givernaud interests consolidated, the Givernaud interests owned one mill in Pennsyl- vania and two in New Jersey. The Pennsylvania mill was sold two weeks ago and negotiations are now under way for the sale of the two New Jer- sey mills. composed the firm of Givernaud Bros. are working together, it is understood, to retain the Norwich plant and op- erate it. The Thompson interests owmP two | plants in New Jersey which they will continue to operate. JUDGE WARNER SPEAKS TO NORWICH C. E. UNION.

An account of the last union meeting held in Jeweli City in January, 1912, was given. The balance on hand in the treasury is $5.18. Half of the societles have not as vet sent in their pledged dues. Thc same officers were re-elected for the coming year with the addition of Miss Alice Brown of Newent, treasurer, The coming state convention in Har:- ford was spoken of and It was stated that no convention for ycars has been so well planned. Norwich Town Juniors. An exercise by the Norwica Town junjors comsisting of a recitation of the Shepherd Psalm and the sweet singing of Bring Them In was most pleasing. Papers descriptive of ideal C.

The college professor is considerably in evidence this year—Washington Herald. At another English church, that of Acton, in Cheshire, it was the prac- tice durimg the middle of the last century for one of the church wardens to proceed through the church service with & huge wand In his hand where- with If any one of the congregation was observed to be asleep he was in- stantly awakened by @ tap on the head. In Warwickshire a similar ¢ m prevailed. A warden bearing a stout wand, shaped like a hayfork at ite end, stepped stealthily up and down the nave and the aisles and whenever he saw an individual asleep he touch- ed him 8o effectively that the nap was broken—this being sometimes ac- complished by the application of the fork to the nape of the neck. A more playful method obtained in other church. The beadle went :svut during the service carrying long staff ,to one end of which was attached a fox's brush and to the oth- er a knob.
