The war bulletins in the display window of the men’s dej ment of the Porteous and Mitchs store on Main street attracted a large crowd of spectators all day Friday and many were the favorable comments on the appearance of the “war window” #r- ranged by the store decorator Daniel J. Hinchey and his assistant Joseph i Farrell. In the “war ‘window” is a large war map of Europe, 6 feet by 5 feet, which is claimed to be the larg- est of that. counlry yet published and ‘which was procured from Edinburgh. Scotland. It is bound in a velvet frame and is lighted on all sides. But- tons denote the location of the armies engaged in the great conflict. Red for the English, lavender for the French, blue for the Russians, yellow for the Belgians, and €reen for the Austrians and Germans. War Bulletins furnish- ed by the Norwich Morning Bulletin are to be seen in the window. Includ- ed in-the display are a number of pic- tures and publications and also some of the very letest illustrated papers from England, Germany and France. The exhibit will continue for several From Eagleville. Residents from the neighborhood that would be benefitteq by bettex' transportation facilities to reach Connecticut _Agricultural college :.t Storrs attended a hearing given here Friday afternoon at 8 o'clock by the Eastern Connecticut Development Committee. The meeting was held in the rooms of the Norwich Business Men's association in the Transporta- tion company building on Shetucket street. Two ways of providing transporta- tlon to the college at Storrs were chiely discussed, one by a spur.track from the Central Vermont railroad line at Eagleville, and the other by a- trol- ley line from Willimantic ~through Mansfield Center. President Robert W, Perkins of Y.he Shore Line Electric Railway company and John McCraw, southern division superintendent for the Central Ver- mont railroad, were present, and when the matter had been sifted out con- siderably, the railroatl men: told the meeting ‘that it would be -larsely a matter of finances whether tramnspor-. tation service was provided by either trolley or railroad line and that neither had any money to build with. ‘When President Joseph T. Crutten- den of the committee called the meet- Ing to order, there was an attendance of 25 persons, of whom three were women from Mansfleld who had been interested in circulating a petition di- rected to Morton F. Plant and the Shore Line road directors. President Cruttenden said tht it now seemed to be the question wheth- er the time has not arrived when the state of Connecticut should provide some easier way of reaching Storrs, so that the people of Connecticut could bring away more of the valuable in- formation which has been accumu- lateq there and should be more -ufly available to the people, President Beach of Storrs. He invited President C.° L. Beach of the college to present his views on the subject. The_ president said that there are from 30 to 40 families resident in ‘the community and presumably 400 to 500 people, including the student body, ‘whe want a chance to get better com- munication with the outside world, presumably turning towards Willi- mantic. Besides passenger traffic there would be freight to be considered.- Their college useq 2000 tons of coal per year besides considerable miscel- laneous freight and in the course ‘of, the building operations there has been from 2000 to- 3000 tons of *building material. There is annually about 5000 tons of freight brought in. by way of Eagleville, which costs- $1.25 per ton to have. The college is in a position to grow, he said, and ‘if e state assists it will probably double its enrolment in the next two years or so. ADVOCATED TROLLEY TO STORRS Mansfield and Willimantic Residents Appeared ‘Before East- ern Connecticut Development Committee — Railroad Men Say It is a Question of Finances—Mansfield Trol- ley Route Favored Over Central Vermont Extension Petition from Mansfield. A petition from residents of Mans- fleld, signed by about 300 persons, was shown, directed to Mr. Plant and the Shore Line directors, asking to have the road built through Mansfield Cen- ter to the college, and stating that there was =a constantly increasing stream of passenger and freight traf- fice which warrants the extension of the line. The two railroad men present were requested to secure a report and pre- sent it at some future meeting on just what the roads they represented would do. * Measures Decided Upon. At a meeting of the eastern Connec- ticut development committee held after the hearing had been closed it was voted to bring this matter of the trans- portation facilities for Storrs before the annual ‘meeting of the State Busi- ness Men's association in Waterbury in October and ask for their support. C.-J. Isbister was appointed a com- mittee of one to get estimates on the ‘cost ‘of a’storage battery car and the laying of rails in connection with the Toute by way of Mansfi The next meeting of the committee is to be held in Willimantic on Fri day, Oct. '§th, and by that time a re- port will be made on a plan to secure a speaker who can make a tour of all the flve associations in eastern Con- necticut ifi ‘the same week. His sub- Ject will be Salesmanship. The committee also voted to have 50 coples of their Eastern Connecticu: ne bound up in cloth covers, 1¢ to be given to each association for dis- tribution to libraries and to other pub- e ormlnflonu.

He had been confined to his' hoom since the first of June. Mr. Burton was born in England but came here when a child having passed practically all his life in this city. On May 13, 1875 he was united in marriage in Norwich with Ruth Cosley who survives him. - For over 30 years Mr. Burton was employed at the plant of the Hopkins and Allen Firearms company on Franklin street, but he had led a re- tired life for the past half dozen years. He was a member of the Odd Fellows and attended Christ church. Besides his wife he leaves the following chil- dren, Frederick Burton Ledyard, Lor- enzo Burton of this city, Mrs. Charles Robinson of Norwich and Mrs. Marx Kristek of Worcester. William P. Greene. The noble life of Willlam Peckham Greene came to a sudden end Friday evening at 6 o'clock in his home at 263 Prospect street. He had been in poor health for 11 months with Bright’s _disease and became seriously i1l last Wednesday. Mr. Greene was born in Greeneville, Nov. 8, 1864, the son of the late Paul B. and Lucy Ann Card Greene and has been a resident of Greeneville all his life. On May 10, 1900 he was united in marriage with Mrs. Mercie Stebbins of this city. Mr, Greene joined the Third Bap- tist church during the pastorate of Rev. Charles L. Snow. Up to the time of his death he was assistant foreman in the bleaching department at the United States Finishing com- pany and had been in their employ for over 20 years. He was a member of Ionic camp, No. 7,694, Modern Woodmen of America, and was in the first c'ass that was initiated here. He took great interest in the affairs of the order and had held several chairs. He was an lLonorary member of the Greeneville Hook and Ladder Co., having served his time with that com- pany.

It could be run safely at high speed and by con- nection with Central Vermont trains might meet the passenger demand. Freight could be transferred in the usual way and would mean a saving of $5.000 to $8,000 a year possibly for the college. There would be no great physical “obstacles by the Eagleville route. He said he was not present to make any proposition. A. W. Buchanan of Mansfleld Center spoke for the Spring Hill route, which he said would have easy grades and would go by two churches, the largest mill in the town and two other mills, and the whole east side of Mansfleld would be benfited. L. J. Storrs of Mansfleld also advo- cated the Mansfleld Center route, and Rev. W. S. Beard of ‘Willimantic spoke for_this route. President. Perkins of the Shore Line road professed his' interest in seeing the college given better transportatios facilities, but said that on the figures presented there was not much encour- agement that the road could be pro- fitably operated. Just how to raise “~ge money would be the problem and didn't believe ten per cent could be raised in the territory where the road would run. It would cost not less than $200,000 for the eight miles of the Mansfleld route, not counting equip- ment and power house and no way had been shown even to pay the in- terest on $200,000. of his belief that the State Business Men's Association would be interested in this and would give it support.
