Ri 3 Beard announced a gift of §25 Austin C. Dunham of Hartford, for- merly president of the Willimantic Thread company. The climax of the large gifts came when Rev. Mr. Beard | read a letter from Mrs. Anna H. Still- man of this city in which she said it | was an “infinite pleasure” for her to cnclose a check for $1,000 for the new parish house, or, as Rev. Mr. Croft preferred to have it called, the Con- gregational church or community house. Rev. Mr. Beard said while the parish were about this good work he hoped the pledges would yeach $13,000 or $14,000, to’insure the installation of a new heating plant, new carpets and the redecorating of the church, new sidewalks, and there is no doubt his | hopes will be realized. Rev. Mr. Croft and Rev. Mr. Beard each added $25 tc their gifts, Captain Shepard added $50 to his donation and Fred D. Jor- dan and Mrs. George S.

What Went on of Street Committee—Bidding Firm Wants $120 Rent for The executive session of the street committee Monday night after the heated discussion of the teaming con- tract was the toplc of general con- vefsation Tuesday. Alderman Jackson is the only repubiican member of the street’ committee. At the executive session which lasted about two hours, Alderman Ahearn made a motion that Foley & Henry, who now have the teaming contract ang whose horses for hauling the fire truck are housed in the only available stable on the west side of Bank street be given the com- tract for city teaming in accordance with their bid as reported in Tues- day’s Bulletin. Alderman Jackson seconded the motion as he thought it to sign the contract unless the city would agree to pay, in addition to their_bid, a $120 veariy rental. for the Bank street barn they now oc- cupy. Alderman O'Conner moved that {he street committee agree to this demand. Alderman Jacksgn objected to this and as a resdlt the committee finally voted to submit a new contract for bids with the provision that the horses shall be housed in some barn “a reasonable distance from the Bank street fire station.” Citizens who have learned of these facts state that in effect the new agreement would be no less objectionable than the first con- tract, for the street committee, Alder- men ' O’Conner, -David Ahearn and Frank R. Jackson would still be the supreme court to decide what was “a reasonable distance” from the Bank street fire station. As Aldermen O’Conner ang David Ahearn, the dem- otratic members of the committce, fa- vored giving Foley & Henry the con- tract and Alderman O'Conner made the proposition for the city -to even go so far as to pay $120 a year rent for the barn on the west side of Bank street now occupied by Foley & Henry, citizens say they believe that that firm would still be the only teamsters that could land the clty teaming contract under the proposed new agreement. The democratic members of the com.- mittee and the municipal machine con- tend that the original contract that roused such a protest was a copy of the teaming agreement of one or two years ago, prepared by a republican corporation counsel at the instance of a republican chairman of the street committee and they say that shifts any responsibllity from Corporation Kel- lex’s shoulders. On the other hand the | appreciated the effect and unfairnéss S0 generally discussed as this team- ing agreement. The democratic mem- bers of the city council are airing their Monday that he believed competitive bids weuld-be submitted: that in his opinion the city could get its teaming done for figures that will be no higher at least than the city has paid the past yéar and that if the street com- mittes gives the contractors and city a fair chance theré will be'no trouble in executing a contract that will in- cludé botH the streat téaming and thé hauiing of the fire apparatus at a rea- <onable price.

It is now apparent that the election of next Tuesday will be a wholly per- functory affair. All of the nominees will undoubtedly be elected without op- position. The annual business meet- ing’ of the borough will be of Interest, however. Caught Fine Trout. Henry Lague and Dr. M. S Warren have shown best 'strings of trout brought into Danielson since the sea- son opened. Mr. Lague had a string of fine fish, while Dr. Warren showed two that would weigh about a pound each. To Keep Streets Free From Dedgers. The Business Men's association has become interested in endeavoring to eliminate the practice of littering the business section of Danielson through the promiscuous distribution of her- alds. The matter will be referred to the officials of the borough. streis a Big Success. Many very complimentary things were said Wednesday relative to the minstrel entertainment given by mem- bers of the Sacred Heart parish in Wauregan, and congratulations were extended to the cast on the exception- ally fine showing made. The pastor, Rev. J. E. McCarthy, and the coach, William Brennan, Danielson, share in the praise over the success of the ven- ture. Sanitary Drinking System. At the mill of the Danielson Cotton company a sanitary drinking system is bein installed. A piping system for conveying drinking water to all parts of the plant is being installe& this including coils of pipe upon which ive may be placed at drinking stations. Heretofore operatives have . secured their drinking water from pails dis- tributed at vantage points in the va- rious departments. Forest Fires. Forest fires that broke out during the morning hours of Wednesday in the southern and northern scctions of the town of Killingly gave the fire- fighters their first qifficulty of tHat na- ture this year. One fire that origin- ated near Attawaugan crossing gave rige to considerable concern, for a high wind made the progress of the flames rapld and destructive. On Trip South. Charles Edwin Blake, teacher at Barrington. whose home is in Brook- 1yn, is spending this week on a trip to Norfolk and Old Point Comfort, Va. Mr. Blake is teacher in a school where some cases of illness have developed during the past few days among the students, so is recruiting his health after a nervous strain. Firt and Final Dividend. Local creditors received Wednesday checks from the attorneys for the re- ceiver, A, J. Broughal, in part payment of their claims against the .Danielson ‘Worsted company, which has been in the hands of a receiver for some time. The checks represent a first and final dividend of 911 per cent. The Wor- sted company occupied the mil] at the head of Water street, the plant now the property of F. A. Jacobs, who pur- chased it at a sale some time since. Officers of Baptist Church. Following are the newly elected offi- cers of the Baptist church: Trustees, Frank T. Preston, E. H. Hammett, J. W.

Douglas Swaffield; that all of the bills of the church and of the societies have been paid and that thers are satisfactory balances in the treasuries of the ehurch and its socisties. About 125 responded to their names at the annual! rell call and about 100 were presemt for the annual supper. The decorations were especially at- tractive and daintily arranged, credit for this being due to Miss Grace Spald- ing. Possibility of Good Baseball Team. ‘While Danielson has béen without a representative baseball team for a number of years, ciroumstances have S0 shaped themselves as to indicate that there is a chance for buildin, players now resident here and in thé vicinity. If the old spirit and love for the game is not uttérly dead Daniel- son can have a real baseball club this summer. All that is needed is a little push and ginger—and some money not enough of the last nameq to banl rupt anyons, however. Arthur W. Williams, known to every real baseball enthusiast in this part of the state, is now in business here. A little talk with him on Wednesday in- dicated that he is ready for the fray if any interest can be drummed up. He would make an ideal and widely ex- perienced leader for a local club, His record in Jewett City, Plainfield and other nearby towns is a guarantee of that. Then there is Labelle, formerly of Dayville; Robertson, formerly of Jewett City: Flynn, a crackerjack player recently arrived here from New Hempshire, and some other good ma- terfal. Raseball would bring crowds to Dan- ielson Saturday, and crowds bring money to spend. Dbaseball year for the old town. A little | nustle for an organization will make it sa.

All of the great tree, excepting a stump about 20 feet in height, has been taken down during the past ‘wo days, and this stump will eventually be re- moved. Mr. Adams has had nearly a dozen men at work on the dismem- berment process, which was a big job. The estimates of the amount of mate- riai in the parts of the tree already taken down vary from 12 to 20 cords. FUNERAL. Mrs. Mary M.
