Circus Sues Animal Show. ‘The case of Wheeler Brothers’ Shows vs. LeTena's Animal circus, un% for itrial in the superior court for Wind- ham county, will recall to. the minds of loacl people that attachments in the suit were placed while the Le- Tena show was playing in Plainfield and Danielson last May.

If' John Doe orders liquor shipped to him. at Danielson—or any otheér kind of intoxicant—after XKillingly goes into the no-license column the must come here marked plain- ly on the outside as to its contents, must be addressed to John Doe and st be receipted for by John Doe efore it can be taken out of the pos- pession of the common carrier. Get- Ung booze into tewn is going to be more direectly supervised, under fed- eral laws, than was formerly the case during no-license. Trifling with these laws—federal laws—is mighty risky business, ‘too. The penalties include 1;10!15 terms of imprisonment and heavy nes. Coon ‘Supper for Twenty, Mr. and Mrs. Willam A. Keach of ‘Fast Franklin street entertained a party of 22 friends at a coon supper at - their home Tuesday evening. The coons were ‘the ones that fell in the hunt in which James Kent of Elm- ville figured during last Saturday night. Mr. and Mrs. Keach gave add- ed pleasure to their guests by pro- viding a program of music and other entertainment after the supper. Town Not to Be Divided. It is stated that there is absolutely no truth in a story being circulated in Brooklyn to the effect that an ef- fort is to be made at the coming ses- sion of the legislature to divide the town. This story has been revived from time to time for the past twenty vears, usually during political cam- paigns and principally for political purposes. There is not and never has been any indlcation that any number of Brooklyn people care for such a change. SENIORS’ SOCIAL. Annual Event Made Enjoyable by Sketch, -Hallowe’en Features and Story Telling. A very pleasing entertainment was given Thursday evening at the high school in connection with one of the principal events of the school year, the senior class social. Spooks and witches in the numbers they intro- duced gave the affair at times a dis- tinctively Hallowe’en touch, added wholesome variety and enhanced the reputation of the class members, and those assisting them, as entertainers. A special feature was the presentation of a sketch entitled The Man Haters, twenty-seven of the students having parts. Then there was a notable as- semblage of musicians, known in com- bination as the 1815 Symphony orches- tra, a most extraordinary collection of instruments entering into the pro- duction of the harmonies given. Cones, drums, horns, mandolins, brass instru- ments and piano were included. The possibilities of this combination would stir the geniug of a Wagner. In all serfousness, the orchestra, strange in the instrumental units that ‘composed it, played very well and was given justly earned recognition. Preceding the giving of the sketch there was a reception to members of the faculty and the parents of the class, members of the committee of arrangements, acting - as_ hostesses. The sketch'was followed by a finely executed drill of the witches, this giv- en weird scenic effects through the use of flares of red fire, which, for the time being, replaced the electric Hghting service. At intermission Miss Touise Danielosn, in costume told ghost stories and Miss Martha King gave readings. After the intermission thére was a delightful period for dancing, the gucsts of the evening joining with the Scudents. The cast of characters in the Man Faters, the fury and those having parts in the drill of the spooks and witchcs were as follows: Man Haters.

FISHING FOR CHICKENS. Thief Discovered Catching Rooster with a Hook and Line: Fishing for chickens with hook and line is ths newest pastime Iin Dan- ijelson. Thureday afternoon a man ose name cannot be given now be- cause- he pit led so hard he was let go, was caught practicing the new sport. On his kxees in a corn field near Henry Myers’' place, on the 'old Prentice farm, the man was fishing for buff rock chickens, with a line on worm.

Good -esults seem certain to accrue, how- aver, so patient waiting is a virtue be. ing urged upon the milkmen by those who have the investigation in charge. REPUBLICAN RALLY. Addressed Thursday Evening by Sen- ator Brandegee and Richard P. Free- man, Untted States Senator Frank B. Brandegee and Richarqd P.

The fair audionce that was present ted the candidates en- thusiastieally, L. H. Fuller was chalr- man of the meeting, and the musis was by the Putnam band. Both cand- idates gave straight party talks; scored the democratic administration, and had somethinng to say of the progressive movement. The . opinion was expressed that the democratic party rode Into power in 1912 on ac- count of the split In the Republican party dbut that this year the return of many republicans from that party will bring at the polls.

Thirty-fifth Street : WYANDDTTES CUT DOWN AMERICAN LEGHORN’S LEAD. Have a Chance to Tie for First Place in Egg Laying Contest. The fiftieth week of the laying con- test at Storrs saw the English Wyan- dotlu cut down the lead of the Amer- fcan Leghorns by elght eggs. At this writing the English birds are 17 eggs behind and there are 15 days to go. If the same pace 1s maintained. by the two leading pens for the remainder of the period as has prevaliled during the_ past week, the English birds will exactly tie for first place. The record of cither, however, is creditable enough for any hens bred anywhere, either in this country or abroad. The ‘two Wyandotte pens owned re- spectively by Merrythought Farm, Col- umbia, Conn., and Neale Bros., of Ap- ponau, R. I, that have swapped places so often during the year's work are again within four eggs of each other. It looks now as of ‘the Rhode island peen would probably win out In the matter of pen record but the Con- necticut pen certainly has the edge for Individual work, The No. 3 hen in this pen yielded six eggs last week, making her total to date 254 eggs, thus equalling the best individual record made in the first contest by a Rhode Island Red from Kentucky. Neale Bros. pen of White Wyandottes from Rhode Island won first place for the week with. 33 eggs to their credit The English Wyandottes were an ex- ceedingly close second with a yield of 32 egzs, and three Connecticut pens, namely: F. H. Benton's White Plymouth Rocks from Wallingford, A. B. Brundage's Reds from Danbury, and Glenview Poultry Farm’'s Leghorns from Rockville, all tied for third place with 29 eggs each. Lincoln's Leghorns from Mt. Carmel, Conn.,, and Dr. N. Sanborn’s Buff Wyandottes from Hold- en, Mass., followed these closely with 28 eggs each. Thus seven pens of birds laid 40 per cent.-or better in this the middle of October, when eggs are selling for more than fifty cents a dozen. Thirteen additional pens lald 21 eggs each or better, or a yleld of 30 per cent. On the other hand were three pens in the contest that laid “goose eggs” for the week. ‘The first pen of birds to arrive for the fourth competition which will open on Sunday, November 1st, was a pen of Black Leghorns from Jonathan Col- linson of Barnacre, Garstang, England. In spite of their long trip these birds arrived at Storrs in excellent condition and look now as if they would be right ready for business on the opening day. The ten leading pens to date are as follows: Francis F. Lincoln, Mt Carmel Conn., White Leghorns 2060; Tom Bar- ron, Catforth, England, White Wyan- dottes 2043; Tom Barron, Catforth, England, White Leghorns 1982; Mer- rythought - Farm, Columbla, Conn., White Wyandottes 1875; Neale Bros., Apponaug, R.
