A Mg crowd of shoppers is expected here tomorrow (Satur night,which will be another carnival night, with band concerts, confetti by the peck, and all of the other features which gave the big street crowd such a happy time last Saturday evening. IMPOSTORS SPOTTED. Christmas Dinner Committee Pretty Certain Who Deserves Aid and Those | Who Are Fakirs. There has been some hesitation this year over dropping money in the box- es that have been placed in different stores for the reception of funds that will be used for bringing Christmas in fact to. the needy of Danielson. The complaint of those who object to giv- ing is that in past years people who have money have been helped from this fund, when they were perfectly able to look out for themselves, and, again, that other beneficiagies of the generosity of the local public seem to be able to find money enough to go to the theater two or three times a week, but look to the public to supply them with Yuletide cheer. These allegations can be backed by facts. Cases are known where people who have money in the bank have ac- cepted aid from the committee that has had the charitable work in charge and there are others who graciously accept the gift of a Christmas dinner and save their own money for use in attending the picture shows. But there is another and far more important gide of the story. Danielson has some people who real- ly need aid and who are entirely be- yond the position in which people are able to help themselves. They are old and helpless and lonely; they are with- out ‘money or friends. Left to their own resources, they must bend their poverty stricken heads in grim forti- tude, but with undiminished hope of something better somewhere at some time, as a joyous holiday for the many makes glad those of favored circum- stances hroughout the world. They are deserving of all that can be done for them by a liberal public. The committee in charge of the work know who these people are. Year by year they are finding out the impos- tors and fewer of the latter get as- sistance as years go by.- For the sake of the worthy poor an appeal now goes out to those who are hesitating over making contributions. There is not one chance in a hundred that money given to the fufld will go to the un- worhy, those who give may res+ ab- solutely sure of that. The weeds have about all been rooted out of the loeal garden of charity. One dollar given to the fund for the needy of Danielson will do more real good at Christmas time than can a dollar spent in almost any other way. PUINAM Fire Chief Wilson Determined to Re- sign—New Company Organized— Rodman-Melody Bout at Athlstic Club—No. 2 Mill Getting Out Sam- ples. Though appreciating the fine testi- monial of friendship and good will contained in the resolutions presented him on behalf of every member of the fire department, Chief Mark Wil- son sald Thursday afternoon that he had ‘not reconsidered his decision to resign as chief. His resignation hag not been accepted by - the commen council, which has the making of ap- pointments to the office. Chief Wilson says that his time is so fully occupied with business and other essential du- ties that he feels he cannot loager see his way clear to remain as chief of the department. New Company Incorporated. The Putnam Iron and Metal com- pany has been formed in this city and articles of incorporation filled with the secretary of state. The corporation has a capital stock of $15,000, of which $ 0 has been paid in. The incor- porators are Aaron Gordon of Dan- ielson, David H. Hatch and Etty La- vine, the two last named of Putnam. Mr. Gordon is president of the com- and treasurer. The company is to carry on a general junk business, with headquarters in this city. Theatre Patrons Liked Edith Montrose. An exceptionally fine act, one giving wide opportunity for the display of the histrionic abilities of the actress, W that given to the patrons of the ley theatre Thursday by Miss Edith A. Montrose, known as A Bun- dle of Art, an apt appellation. Miss Montrose is known as one of the coun- try’s greatest female quick change art- ists and during the twenty minutes that she is on the stage, portraying five different characters, she shows something that is out of the beaten path in vaudeville—an originality of theme and character that is superla- tively pleasing. Rodman—Melody Bout Arranged. J. T. McLellan, matchmaker for the Putnam Social and Athletic club, has arranged for the most important box- ing bout that has been offered at any | time to local lovers of the manly art. | He has signed up Frank Rodman of Webster to meet the famous Honey Melody, the man that beat the pre- | viously invincible Joe Walcott, the Bl Demon, for the welterweight championship of the world, which has since been lost by Melody, however, though he still remains one of the greatest men in the country at his weight. The men are to meet at 145 pounds and are to go 12 rounds. The bout is to be staged here in about three weeks, Christmas Sunday Evening Service. Following is the program arranged { for the services at the Baptist church on Sunday night: Prelude, The March of the Wide Men; doxology; invoca- tion; anthem, Glory to the Lord; re- sponsive scripture reading; hymn; prayer; response, The Begkoning Star; offertory, He Shall See His Flock; o fertory prayer; scripture lesso ; sermon; anthem, Sing and Re- ; benediction; postlude, Silver Trumpets. Good Season for Road Building. Road builders have been able to go along for an exceptional time this year on state work in towns in this part of Windham county, and today, the last day of the fall season, finds them still at it. The Trumbull Construc- tion company, which has the contract for building the state road from the Putnam town line to the village of Attawaugan, has been able, on ac- count of the unpsually mild weather of the past few' weeks, to do nearly all of the rough work, grading, filling, etc., on the section called for in their contract and they are still on the job. The cut-off through the Wheaton property has been made and the great- er part of the work upon it done, though it must be given some finish- ing attention. The company will be able to complete its contract early in the spring, giving an all-state road from Putnam to Danielson, something that has been long sought after, Edward 8. Thomas May Be Judge. It is hinted at Hartford that Edward 8. Thomas of New Haven and East- ford stands an excellent chance of re- celving one of the two appointments to the superior court bench that Gov- ernor Baldwin will have to make dur- ing the coming two years and those who know Mr, Thomas best know that such an honor would be fully deserved, as much for his ability to udequately fill a judgeship as for the services he has rendered to his party and to the state during the past few years. Grange Takes Action on Death, Ella R. Wood, Andrew J. Kennedy and Howard C. Bradford, as a com- mittee of Putnam grange, have framed resolutions of condolence in connec- tion with the death of J. Clinton Nich- ols, who was one of the prominent members of the organization. No, 2 Mill Gets Out Samples.
