The special city meeting to take ac- Hen on appropriating $8,000 for a mu- nicipal h.en:hn( in Willimantic, Tues- ay evening, was very largely attend- ed, Tow nhall belnflau‘rgue’d Lawyer Kelley, in support of his resolution reviewed the legal rights of the city in the premises and thought it would be a good investment for Wil- limantic to try the experiment. H. A. Bugbee thought it would be impossible for the clty to build and equip the nec-. essary additionai city ice houses for 38,000 while Alderman-at-Large Mar- tin emphatically insisted it could be done and offered to make a contract with the city to do it. Mr, Vanderman questioned the wisdom of trying the experiment from a sanitary standpoint, M. E. Lincoln clearly reviewed the inadvisability of the measure, empha- sizing the competition reason saying ice could not be profitably harvested and delivered at 31 cents per hundred pounds if the city should give it away and it would be hard for the city to find & contractor who is responsibie to | buy the city ice with the probability of private competition. Mayor Dunn said dealers refused to harvest suf- ficient fce in order to keep the price up and cited Pittsfield as an example of where the people refused to be fooled. Mr. Israel spoke in favor of the measure. Someone asked Alder- man Martin who built the ice houses. but he made no reply. Another voter said if there was no ice to harvest the eity would have an expensive $8,000 HIRAM N. FENN CNDLATAKER amd EMBALMER §¢ Caurch St Willimantie, Ct Teleszone Ledy Ase JAY M.

Chief Richmond said the Smith boy entered the Kennerson house through a bulkhead, took the money from a sacked the rooms. the money, who Smith gave Jacobs rst hid it in a barn Cuief Richmond said the two boys also | visited Willimantic stores, where they bought knives, cigarettes and candy.

At 12:30 Tuesday morning Dr. J. 8. Chagnon was summoned to the home of Mr. Antaya, who lives in Carter street, and attended to the injuries of Mr. Antaya. How the accident came to happen is considerable of a mystery. The team, it is claimed, was being driven far over on the right hand side of the street, close to the trolley tracks, and carrying a light, as required under t| law that recently went into effect.

CORONER'S INQUEST IN ROZE SHOOTING Much Evidence of Value Secured from Many Witnesses—Continues Today. Coroner Arthur G. Bill of Danielson spent the day at the city court room in this city Tuesday conducting the inquest relative to the shooting of Frank Roze. Coroner Bill opened the inquest at 9 a. m. and it was after b o'clock when he had finished with the last witness of the day, but not with the inquest, which wili be continued this (Wednesday) morning. Among those who were summoned in and appeared before the coroner at Tuesday's session were George _A. Vaugnan. Jr. Benjamin D. Gagne, De- witt Arthur Ray, Arthur Tetreault, Howard V. James, John Lassey, Thom- as Gannon, Benolt Tetreaulf, Albert F. Hazen, Frank Pracciclano, D. De- sarino, Nicola Dinorfetto, Mrs. Frank Roze, widow of the man killed in the shooting affair. All of these helped the coroner to get needed facts in con- nection with the shooting and the events leading up to it. From the evi- dence submitted a clear understand- ing of Manery's movements from the time he left the shanty at the fair grounds, where he has ‘been stayving with the water pipe laying gang with which he came here from Boston three weeks ago, up to the time he was ar- rested, for intoxication, no suspicion at that time being directed against him as the slaver of Roze. Much Valuable Evidence. While nothing was given out by Cor- oner Bil], it was learned that much evi- dence of value was secured. Among the witnesses that were heard during the day were those who saw the flash- es from the revolvers of the men as they shot at each other under the Front street bridge and (liose who saw Manéry as he left the place and ran up South Main street and entered a saloon. » Right Name Is Minerva, Manery’s right name, as given to State Policeman Verilli, is Guiseppe Minerva. He was not presented before the coroner at the inquest on Tues- day, but may be this morning. It is understood that he has made a full confession to the state police, but the details of his statements, which have been set down, would not be released by the officers until they have been officially presented to the coroner. Quarrel Started in Livery Street Sa- loon. . The officérs admit, however, that Minerva has told them all. It appears that the quarrel between the man now dead and the prisoner developed from a trivial matter and that it had its inception in a Livery street saloon, where the men had been drinking. Neither man had seen the other, as far as can be learned, previous to Sat- urday night. Capt. Murray’s Suspicions. Captain Murray told Tuesday how he came to be suspicious that Minerva was connected with the shooting, al- though held only on a charge of in- toxication. In looking over the articles taken from his person when he was locked up at the station Captain Mur- ray found a little bottle of machine oil and a swabber for a revolver. This aroused the captain’s suspicions and started him on a trail of investigation that eventually, when many facts were put before the prisoner, led to his con- fession. The officers had some difficulty in making the members of the gang with which the prisoner has been at work admit that they knew him, but they finally did so and gave information of value as to his movements on Sat- urday night. Personal Mention. Mrs. G. Harold Gilpatric was the guest of relatives at Pleasant View, R. I, on Tuesday. Mrs. G. B. Shaw has returned from Pleasant View, R.

Soap used to provide King James\I with a c_lg;;fforuwe addition ;o his in- come. canny monarch granted the company of soapmakers of West- minster the monopoly for the making of soap in England in return for a payment of $30 a ton on &1l soap pro- duced. The importation of soap was forbidden and officers were appointed to deal with illicit soap bolling, its manufacture, even in private houses for domestic purposes, belng punish- able by heavy penalties. Moreover, a proclamation was issued that “the soap made by the company is good, sweet and serviceable for our people.” The annual revenue derived by the Kking from this source amounted to about $150,000. When cotton first came to Europe to make its principal center in Lan- cashire, 1t was the subject of the quaint and wonderful fable of the ‘vegetable lamb.” The fluffy white fibers of the bursting cotton pod so resembled ! sheeps' wool that travelers reported that in Tartary there grew a shrub,’ the fruit or boil of which contained | “withinne a lyttle Beaste in Flesche, in Bone and Eloode, as though it were a little Lambe with outer wool.” After the lamb had been eaten the wool was made into cloth, continued his story, which is the earliest European account of the manufacture of cotton. Glassmaking used at one time to be the most aristocratic of all industries. A French law passed under Louix IX allowed none but men of noble birth to set up glass blowing establishments or even to work therein. For many centuries this was the only trade no- blemen could venture to work in without any danger of losing caste. The art of glass making reached Enz- land through France and in its early days those engaged in it styled them- seives “gentlemen glass blowers.” nro of T Queer Bits of History. Rochdale, England, laid the founda- tion of its prosperity in the reign of Edward I1I, when a body of Flemish emigrants took up their abode there and introduced their craft as clothiers. Rochdale, in the time of Queen Eliza- beth, had become so famous for its woolen manufactures that the “aul- nager,” the official appointed by the qugen to measure all woolen cloth made for sale, had to appoint & spe- cial deputy thére to keep pace with its manufacture and gee that the crown was not robbed of its duties. It was his power of protesting that in the first place gave the speaker of the British house of commons his name. For the early members were not great at oratory and soon realized the desirability of choosing a spokesman with a ready tongue and the courage to argue with the king. Hence came the title of “speaker” which was first giv- en to Sir Thomas Hungerford in 1376. How many kinds of fairy werethere? A good many.
