Ames of the schools in Killingly has filed with the | state board of education a report on school bulldings in - Killingly outside the borough of Danielson relative to fire escapes and the number of exits from the bulldings, as required by law. In addition to his report Super- visor Ames has invited inspection of the buildings by a representative of the state board of education. Plainfield Wants Town Hall. The erection of a town hall build- Ing suitable to the needs of the town is being agitated in Plainfield, the most rapidly growing town in Wind- ham county. The movement has not vet taken definite form, but is finding many supporters. The present town hall building in Central Village is con- sidered by some of the town people to be inadequate to present needs. In what is now a wooded section back of East Killingly, but formerly a center of population in this town, is a stone enclosure described by recent Danlelson visitors to the spot as a sheep pen. It was built a great many vears ago as a shelter for sheep from wild beasts that were prone to prev upon them. The pen, now withott the top that formerly covered it, is bullt on the top of a ledge, this precaution to prevent wild anin from burrow- ing under it. Money to Be Fumigated. For the protection of all of the peo- ple who do business there, the Wind- am County National bank is to in- all this week a fumigating system that will insure a thorough disinfect- ing of all money that passes through the institution, he device will be installed at once, probably today. RARE ANIMAL SHOT In Big Annual Hunt of Killingly Club —Two Coons Will Furnish Supper Later. Two coons and another animal of a kind never before shot in the woods of Windham county were taken Saturday night in the big annual hunt of the Killingly Hunting and Fishing club. About 60 went out to Camp Whippoor- will, the club’s headquarters near East Killingly, for the event, guests from Putnam, Hartford, Norwich and Prov- idence being inciuded in the party Using automobiles to get to bases of operations or going out on foot, the & party divided into several smaller ones and -was able to' cover a wic range of country. One of the coons was taken in the town of Brooklyn, the other one on the Rhode Island bo der Intervening territory supplied fresh trafls that were taken up by other dogs in the pack of coon hounds that gave the animals a lively chase, but without big final resuits. W. A Graves, Willlam J. Ross and a- party of Norwich men, J. L. Hub- bard, C. A. Thorpe and Richard John- son, and W. A. Colwell made up the arty that captured the coon in Brook- lvn, getting him out of a ledge after hours of hard work. James Kent Elmville and Dr. M. 8. Warren headed the party that brought in the coon from the Rhode Island section The big kill of the night, however, was made by King George Jacques. This came early in the evening, ju after the big party had done fuli ju tice to the roast plg supper served by the monarch, the feast being unani- mously declared the superfor of any erved the club at the camp, and have had some excellent ones Compliments on the fine. supper were being showered on the King when an excited member of the party rushed back from another nearby camp with the announcement that a coon had been treed a short distance from camp. There was a stampede of i terested hunters to the foot of the tree In question and there they found a guard keeping the animal from coming down out of the branches. Searchlights and lanterns plainly revealed the quar- ry perched on a limb, glaring down in terror at the group that collected. The honor of making the kill was awarded to King George, who leveled a shotgun at the beast's shining eyes. There was a flash and a crash and a tumbling from the branches of a torn and bleeding animal. It was a dead shot. There was a rush to plck up the victim, which was tossed out of the brush to the mighty hunter. In the glare of the lights it was at once discovered that the animal was not & coon. But there was no trouble in fdentifying it. It was a fine big Teddy bear. Mussed up and properly decorated for the part it was to play, the Teddy was some decelver. It fell a vietim to the King's deadly aid without a quiver, but bled sawdust f nearly five minutes after ‘“death” while the surprised royal artille gazed in wonder. What the King said is reserved for the royal archives In every way the hunt was a big suceess, 50 much so that the eiub will be eblé to have & coon supper next Saturday night, as the parties who took the eoons have very generously presented them to the club with their compliments, NORWICH HEALTH OFFICER'S VISIT Dr. N. B. Lewis, Dr. Fox of Uncasville and Dr. Black of New London Look Over Local Smallpox Condition: The health situation in Danielson aspect during ses of smallpox H. Judson, health officer, sald during the afternoon that he knew of none that was not more than four days' old. The quarantined arca was under rigld survelllance, with officers on gudrd. Vaccination went on apace during the day and will be continued until the orders of tha helth officers of Danlelson and Brook- Iyn are complied with, this for general vaceination. While it cannot be certainly pre- dicted at this time that there will bo no new cases, doctors sald Sunday, the drastic measures taken last week to confine and stamp out the disease are belleved to be proving very effec- this feeling |5 strengthened veloped up to Sunday since Wednesday of last week, Danielson people were so frightened by the discovery that the disease they gated—Pomona Meeting Arranged— had been regarding as chickenpox was something of a mere serious nature that/they have flocked to be vacci- nated. Fumigation and quarantine measures are heing supported in tho preper way, although some fow peogle ve had fo be shown, and there is & proper spirit for reporting any sus- Picious eases of illness to tho physi- clans in eharse of the situatiom, that investigation may be made, 2 r. Judson said Bunday afternoon that enly ene case of smallpox exists in what is regarded as the residential seotlon of Danielson. There arc some chickenpox cases in this area. The af- flicted area of the borough is the Dyer street section and others along the river bank. All of the houtes Wwhere patients are Qquarantined are under guard. \ Health Officer B. C, Babson has done everythin, in his power to control the situation on the West Side. There are 12 cases there, it is revealed by & house to house canyass that has covered all but two tenement blocks, these contalning 27 famiiles. ‘These will be looked at today. Kvery case i1s quarantined and the houses ntain. ing patients are under guard. Mr. Babson has startel in to fumigate every dwelling in the mill village and kept at work Sunday. The vaccina- tion of all of the mill operatives, more than 550 in number, has been arranged for and in many instances has been accomplished. All patients 11l with the disease are doing nicely, as the disease does not seem to be more virulent than has been the case with patients in this town. Most of the cases are very mild, but some are quite severa During Sunday Dr. N. B. Lewls, city | health officer of Norwish, Dr. M. E: Fox of Uncasville and Dr. J. T. Black city health officer of New London, mo- tored to Danielson to look over the situation. They sought information as to what is being done in Danielson and the West Side relative to preveniing and controlling the spread of the epi- demic and conferred with health au- thorities. It is understood that they saw none of the local c but se- cured as much information s possible relative to what is being done. BROKE QUARANTINE.
