There was a small blaze in the tick- et office at the local station afternoon about two o'clock, which destroyed a large number of blank tickets and other material before it was extinguished. The attentlon of Car Inspector J, P, Carlson was drawn to the station by the reflection of the fire on the office window. With the assistance of Jack Healey and E. Her- rick an entrance to the ticket'office was forced by breaking the window. The two young men quickly extin- guished the blaze with palls of water handed -in to them by Mr. Carison and Charles Dondero. The cause of the fire, which was directly over a radiator, and scorched ) the woodwork of the office clear to the ceiling, is not kmown. When Ticket Agent Moulton went to his dinner, he had left everything as usual, and smok- ing is never permitted in the office, so the officials are at a loss to ac- count fer the blage. J.

Frederick Baker, latg of Willi- mantic, but later of New Haven. You know him, dom’t you A stolid iittle party with an assumed air of oddity who makes very dry cracks, smiles broadly and perpetually and seems to have the gossip of this particular planet at his tongue’s end. J. Frederick first saw the light of day some 25 vears ago in Willimantic and at an early age was discovered by his fond { parents making queer inscriptions in the family album with a stick of lico- rice and giving vent to strange mut- terings in an odd tongue approaching Latin. That he was destined to be a writer and a scholar was the immediate conclusion and he had hardly emerged from short pants when fate found him a student at Yale and a hustling jour- halist on the New Haven papers. Well Fred went through Yale on the high speed and then suppiemented it by a course through the Law school, work- ing his way through with credit to himself, his university and his work in_the newspaper fleld. That the greatest national game is politics and not baseball is Freddie's conviction and the graduation day parade had no sooner halted two years ago than he looked around for a polit- ical future, saw that he was in the First ward and grabbed the First ward republican chairmanship. There are those -who predict it will be “Jedge Baker” in the dim future, FUNERAL. Mrs. Roscoe H. Wright. The funeral of Annie, wife of Ros- coe H. Wright of Warrenville, who died Tuesday at St. Joseph's hospital, was held at the Warrenville Baptist church at 1 o'clock Friday afternoon.

Frost and Ryder of Water- bury, Fred Wright of Warrenville and Leander Wright of Ashford. Burial was in the Knowliton cemetery in West Ashford, in charge of Undertaker J. M. Shepard.

Harry Mann Judge of City Court—Claim of Biga- my Made by Wife No. 1—Man Re- vived and Sent to Jail. Alderman J. Harry Mann, democratic member of the common council, was named Friday by Governor Simeon E. ! Baldwin to be judge of the city court of Putnam. Alderman Mann will suc- ceed Judge L. H. Fuller, who will com- plete a term of six years this Satur- day, when he will hold his last session of court. Governor Baldwin on Friday also reappointed Attorney Mahlon H. Geissler as deputy judge of the ecity court. Attorney Geissler is a repub- lican, Alderman Mann will begin his term as judge next week. His appointment was in a sense anticipated, for he re- ceived the approval of the senate of 1913 as a candldate for the office, but failed of approval in the house, which body was favorable to the reappoint- ment of Judge L. H. Fuller, republi- can. On account of the disagreeing action no appointment was made and the matter has been in abeyance until thig time. Alderman Mann is one of the prom- inent democrats of the city. FHe has been a resident of this city for about 33 years, coming here in 1831. He is a native of New Orleans, where he was born about 62 years ago. His father was killed by guerillas during the Civil war. When a youth Alderman Mann went to Richmond, Ind, to live with relatives. It was in 1869 that he went to New York and became an insurance agent, & line of business with which he has been identifieq for many vears. It was as a special agent of an insurance company that he first came to Put- nam. During his residence here he has been prominent in the social and fra- ternal life of the city. He has been a city officlal for a number of years, serving as auditor and as a_ member of the common council. Re-elected to succeed himseif as alderman in the cit. election of Dec. 1, Mr. Mann wouid have been called upon to begin his new term of office next week, but he will resign the place, which vacancy will be fliled by the members of the common council. Deputy Judge Mahlon H. Geissler, member of the law firm of Torrey & Geissler, will serve his third term as deputy under Governor Baldwin's ap- pointment. Judge Geissler is a grad- vate of Putnam High school and of George Washington university. He was admitted as a member of the ‘Windham county bar when he was 21 years of age and is regarded as one of the most able young lawyers in the eastern part of the state. LOOKING FOR HUSBAND. Albert Florek Claims He Has Married a Second Time. Mrs, Albert Florek is represented as be- ing a polygamist by a woman who claims to be his first wife and who has interviewed Town Clerk David Flagg relative to a license to wed that Florek took out here on Nov. 18, and which license Florek used to wed Selka Kasinlawski. Mrs. Florek No. 1 comes from New Bedford. She says that her husband deserted her and their three small children and that in making a search for him and in investigating his record she has found out that he has three other wive: ‘When_ Florek took out the marriage license he gave his residence as Put- nam and his occupation as a weaver. He said that he was 27 years of age. His bride-to-be gave her age as 24 and her occupation as & spinper. In November the couple were employed in a local mill. but they have disappeared since that time, going to some other mill town, probably, but where is not Enown here. Mrs. Florek No. 1 will take action to have her husband prosecuted as soon as she can find him.

Railroad men ard factory employes will be invited to the car, which seats 70 people. Agent G.

JEWETT CiTY Fox Hunters Waiting for Light Snow- fall—Congregational Pastor’s ~ Last Message Distributed—Guests in Bor- ough Homes. Fox hunters are out most every day now. There are some fine dogs in town and there is generally no trouble about starting a fox. New Year's morning Shep. Brown and his party started three Hill. A light snowfall is all that is needed to make the sport complete. Every season there is the story that some one has shot a silver gray and | received a fabulous price for its skin, but so far it has always proven to be a gray or southern tree fox . The name silver fox as commonly used by hunters includes the dark phases of the ordinary red fox, vari- ously called silver. silver gray, silver black or black. The animal is the common fox (Vulpes fulvus) of north- ern North America. The gray or tree fox is an entirely different species, the fur of which has comparatively little value. Two of these last sort have been shot in this vicinity, one by Amos Phillips last winter and one a few weeks ago by Chauncy Robie. Probably no local hunter has a more successful fox hunting record than N C. Bliven, and extremely interesting are some of his stories about the fine figuring of crafty Reynard. When chased by hounds a fox will rarely leave the district where he is started. In almost every case he will circle about some mountain or hill, going from one to another and back. It often has happened in Lisbon and Griswold | that a fox has finally been run down and captured when not 20 rods from where he was originally started. This is one of his great mistakes, one that| generally costs him his life. A fox| will often run 50 or more miles before he is taken. If instead of circling he would strike off on one course and continue it no hunter would chase him 50 miles from home. This town and Lisbon pay a good bounty on foxes. A red fox skin in prime condition brings from $3.50 to $5. and $500 has been paid for a true silver gray. Not long ago two men dug out seven little foxes in Lisbon and shot the mother. They received a bounty of $20. New Year's festivities at the Con- gregational church Thursday evening were not without their tinge of sad- ness, inasmuch as at that time the pastor, Rev. W. H. Gane, had distrib- | uted at the close of the gathering hls last annual message, in printed form. The message was to the members a.nd adherents of the Congregational | | church,and was under the caption The | Passing of Today. On another page of the foider is printed an original poem, The Changing Years, signed Will Henry Gane. Dr. Gane has been in charge of this pastorate over six years, and has made very many warm and sympathetic friends. No date is vet public when he will close his labors here. Pulpit Themes. At the Methodist Episcopal church next Sunday morning the Lord's sup- per will be administered, and several new members wlii unite with the church. In the evening the pastor's subject will be New Year Accompani- ments. At the Beptist church the pastor, Rev. Allan Spidell, will preach morn- ing and evening.

Gane will preach on | sale of stamps, Keep Troubles to Yourself. To think about cur own troubles is excusable, sometimes It fs a neces- sity; to speak about them is a so- cial offense.
