Bijou UNWORTHY HUSBAND ARRESTED William Sweet Tries to Choke Wife and Flogs Children. William H. Sweet, a rounder, was arrested on complaint of his wife Sun- day forenoon by Chief of Police E. H. Richmond and locked up on charge of breach of the peace and assault. For some time past Sweet has not been living at home, but Saturday evening he decided to see his family. He did not: gain admission to the house oc- cupied by them in the usual way, how- ever, choosing to enter through a window. When entrance had been ef- fected_ his presence was obnoxious to his wife, and he thereupon assaulted her, it is said, attempting to choke her, and then commenced to flog the chil- dren. He will be arraigned i pullce court this (Monday) morning. STRIKE ENDING. Most of Dissatisfied Operatives Re- turn to Work at Thread Mills. Chief E. H. Richmond had men at the thread mill gates Saturday morn- ing, but they were not needed, as no attempt was made on the part of any- ane to interfere with people desiring to go to work. Many of the former strikers entered the " mills Saturday morning and were at thei® accustomed places at the various machines. The strike is practically settled, is believed, being brought about result of a conference between a com- mittee from the agzrieved workers and Gen. E. S. Boss, agent of the company, The agent told the committee that the company did not consider them any longer in its employ, and that as for acceding to their demands it was im- possible, as they were too unreasona- ble. He told them that many of the strikers had returned to work and that the rest would be given their places as soon as they were needed, it a 2% IN.

The returning process will be gradual, and it may be some days before all the employes are back at work. Agent Boss said that as far as he knew there would be no more trouble of any kind. Saturday evening the Polish people held a social and dance in their hall in Sodom in honor of the settlement of the so-called strike. All present ap- peared to have an enjoyable time and quietly discussed the matter of their return to work.

Wanted to Be Called Early, to Get to Norwich. Saturday evening about 10 o'clock a-tramp called at police headquarters and asked to be put up. After the tustomary questions had been asked and recorded by Lieut. Daniel Killou- rey, who was in charge of the desk, the ' weary Willie requested that he be given an early call Sunday morn- {ng ‘as he was very anxious to make Norwich as soon as possible. Lieutenant Killourey said: “This is no hotel, but T'll leave an order for a call and if a bell boy happens to be around you'll get your cahl all right.” The man. was released a little before 9 o'clock in the forenoon Sunday by Chief Richmond and the chief was somewhat mystified when the fellow remarked that the bell boy failed to ghow up.

Division, The rear eng collision of the two Worcester freight trains this side of Putnam Sunday blocked traffic be- tween that city and Willimantic for a few hours over the main line, and as a result the passenger train due in this city from Boston at 11.30 a. m. was sent here over the Norwich & Worcester division and via the Provi- dence division from Plainfield. The run over that route from Putnam to this city was made in-exactly forty- five minutes, which is considered some traveling for the distance. No stops were made after leaving Putnam, ex- cept at Plainfield to shift from one division to the other. Personals. Michael L. Hickey of Union street was in Hartford Saturday. Mrs. T. R.

BOROUGH’S POPULATION Not Always Correctly Stated—Fiqures Give Wrong Impression, When Brooklyn is Not Included. In many ways that the majority of Danieison people do not realize this borough is suffered to lose prestige on account of the population rating it re- ceives in many publications that are consulted for information about the place by people who are strangers [) it, but, for various business reaso want to know the number of thb- itants here. The population figures published are correct, but they give no inkling that across the Quinebaug bridge on what is, known as the West Side—in the town of Danielson, but to all practical purposes as much a part of Danielson as Broad or Hawkins Westfield section—there are about 1,500 more people. Ask any one or all of them ere they live and each will answer “Danielson.” This is true even though isn't Danielson is their home. They at- tend church on the Killingly get thefr public ufilities service of water and lighting from tions, do their trading there, their mail at the Dani are as much and as felson as Danielson i Only a bridge over a narrow ribbon of water and a legally made line of division, not visible in a sense, but potent, separates them. And vet on account of the pop- ulation figures that all strangers must consult when they want to know about Danfelson these 1,500 people are not accredited to Danielson, which suffers thereby. No one who does not know ever takes account of the Brooklyn fire district, the official title of the West Side, as being a part of Danlel- son, though it was once within the boroygh limits. Danlelson people who find state- ments of the borough’'s population are often surprised when they see the figures given for the third largest place in the whole county. Valus of County Fruit Crops. A recently issued government publi- cation has the following relative to the value of fruit crops in Windham county: Apples have been an fmportant crop for a great many years, but the indus- try was badly crippled during the period when the farms were abandon- ed or neglected. Trees that were healthy and bearing well soon became diseased and dwarfed, and the fruit became inferior and ceased to bring a profitable price. In 1860 the value of the orchard products was $52.320. In 1870 it was $33,250, and in 1380 it was $14.333. I'ndoubledlv there was a marked decrease in the output of the orchards covering this period, but no definite conclusions can be drawn from the fizures, The fact that the value of erchard son_office 2 T o of ey 145,455 Indicates | " James McKay, Abel Chatterton and the revival of interest taking vlace in the line of horticulture, though here again the imngrtant fact of season in- fluence may mask the true increase in | productive erchards. The total aeres in farms im the county in 1890 was 248,519, of which 151,117 acres were imoroved. The census of 1900 showed 270,711 acres in farms, with only 102,709 acres im- proved, a decrease of 48378 acres in improved lands in a period of ten years. There has apparently been a further decrease of lands in farms and in the preportion of improved land, the figurés as returned by the census of 1910 being 241,277 and 88,845, respec- tively. A difference in the epinion of the farmers making the returns as to what constitutes improved land may in part account for the marked decrease in this item. have buying | streets or the | rrmna’ | nam.

Ph.D, L Mattress Found Ablaze Early Satur- day Morning in Unoccupied Room in Old Quinebaug House. e e r| Putnam's fifth and latest fire of probably incendiary origin was claim- ing the attention and best detective efforts of the local and state police on Saturday. The city not only has a | firebug, but a defiant one ell, the e | police activity apparently having no - | effect on his nerve. The last fire was another midnight affair and, while it was extinguished - | before it had realiy got started, it proved a_startler people of the city. This time the old | Quinebaug house, in the rear of the - | Putnam inn, was the point of attack. The house is in part occupied on the lower fioor as a saloon by William F. - | Killian, other rooms on this floor are vacant, and on an upper floor em- ploves of the Putnam inn have sleep- ing quarters. ! It was close to the first minutes of Saturday morning when Frank Belle fontaine, porter at the inn elied smoke, having only a few min be- | f | fore gone to his room. Investigation showed a mattress ablaze in an unoc- cupled room on the ground floor in the rear. Bellefontaine says he passed - | by this room only a few minutes be- fore and there was no indication of f | fire. | /The blazing piece of be | immediately thrown out in t | | | a s those aroused.

The Quinebaug house is owned by - |E. C. Rogers, owner of the Putnam | inn. The first named building and the four other places where fires h l\“‘ occurred in that vicinity within the period since election night, are so - | close together that the whole area is & s | no more than an acre in extent. The - | properties attacked are owned by dif- e | ferent parties.
