Withington reports that a fiock of wild geese alighted in Leavens pond hole, off Hutchins street, Wednesday night and at 10.30 were disturbing the quiet of the nelghborhood with their squawking. It is stated that the plan of the Co-operative Power company, which is seeking acharter from the present legislature, to develop water power sites in this particular town would be of great advantage to manufacturing interests. Taking water privileges along the Quinebaug river that are already developed and applying mod- ern methods of construction ~would mean an increase of 25 per cent. in the power generated, it is claimed. Children’s Day at the Bank.

On a special car run by the Shore Line Electric company from Putnam, the body of Michael ODonnell, who died in Manchester, was brought here Thursday for burial in St. James’ cem- etery. A numerous funeral party ac- companied the body of Danielson. There were many _ beautiful florai pleces. Louis E. Kennedy was in charge of the funeral arrangements. Cars to Have Double Running Boards. One of the big open cars of th Shore Line Electric company on the local division has been equipped with double running boards and has just been- given a test run over the route between Central Village and West Thompson to determine whether, with the new rig, it would clear all of the curves and other “tight” places on the line. The curves were all negotiated without difficulty, but at a few places on the line it will be necessary to fold the lower step, as can be done When required. The two-step open car will be s novelty in this section. It will be greeted by many persons, especially Svomen, who have had difficuity in taking ‘the high step necessary here- tofore in boarding open cars, with satisfaction. The lower step will clear the ground by about 16 inches, mak- ing boarding a car with the double steps an easy matter. It is under- stood that all of the open cars on this line are to be equipped with the new steps before the warm weather sets in. Talk of Sunday Baseball. There is & demand here for the priv- ilege of playing Sunday baseball dur- ing the ‘coming season. The propo- sition is one that popped up last sea- son, and @& quickly popped down egain. Advocates of Sunday playing say they cannot be blamed, however, for wanting the same privilege as is extended in other neighboring towns, all in Connecticut and amenable to its laws, ‘Why make fish of one and flesh of another? they ask, and why is a viplation of one Sunday law all right and the violation of another all wrong? In a word, they do not absorb the logic of the situation. Sunday base- bail is against the law, or_different laws, in Connecticut. In the towns where the officials allow games the advantage rests with those who wish to play and othiers who wish to Iook + PUTNAM Hospital Caring for Many Patients— County Farm Agent Secures Plot fo.

The open car equipped with Joabis running boards a. the Davville car- house was run through this city on trial trip. Many Patients at Hospital For several weeks past the Das Kimball hospital has been filled wear- 1y to the capacity for patients. Boy Scout patrols in Putham have plans for week end hikes during April. It is said that Massachusetts offi- oials are not over anxious to conduct the prosecution of young men arrested in that state for burglary, desiring to turn them over to Connecticut au- thorities to face similar charges. This would give this state the short end of the deal. Pomfret to Have Strong Team. Pomfret's school baseball team has commenced practice and indications are that it will be a strong and ag- gressive organization this season. The schedule of games shows contests ar- ranged with various well known pre paratory schools. Plot for Seeding Demonstration. W. C. Kennedy, agent of the County Farmers’ association, was at Brooklyn Thursday making arrangements for the yse of a plot of lavd at the Mrs T L. Cole place for a demonstration of rsed- ng of grass. Mr. Kennedy is to be at Scotland next Tuesday to condust an orchard pruning demonstration. The Hammond-Knowlton team of players and candidates are to be at the high school grounds Saturday after- on while the sport proceeds. If the officials of another town are not in- clined to be so acquiescent, the®Sun- day baseball proposition has run against a snag. That's what has hap- pened in the past in Danielson and the villages of Killingly. The advo- cates of Sabbath playing are going to investigate to determine if time has changed things. HEN AGED 27. Has Changed Feathers Four Times and Still Lays and Wants to Set— Winsted, N. B.! . Here's a story about a hen. It's a true story. Anybody that yips na- ture faker will have the truth of all set down -here on the subject demon- strated to his, or her, satisfaction. The hen is 27 years of age; no, we did not count the teeth to find out. We accepted the word of the man who knows. The hen is the property of James Blanchard, at Dayville, and has been ever since she was a chick. He knows all about her ahd her re- markable career. She’s a pure blooded black Spanish, an aristocrat of her line. In her youthful days she was as black as coal, her feathers of raven shade win- ning the admiration of all who looked at her. She was beautiful then, but save no Indication of An ambition to set up a new record for hen longevity. She lived on, doing her regular sea son’s stunt of laying and brooding un- til all of her contemporaries had pass- ed to the hen heaven. As the years rolled by her glossy jet black feathers began to underso 2 transformation until after succes- sive periods of moulting she present- ed a speckled appearance. Last year she was immaculate in a dress of pure white—the reproduction in adorn- ment of a white leghorn. This year the ‘white feathers are sprinkled with others of black, giving her something of the appearance of a Wyandotte. Although she is now In the great- great-great-grandmother class, and then some, the classic Black Spanish continues to be a regular hen, She has béen turning in his customary allotment of eggs this spring and is now making it definitely known that she is anxious to set. Roaming about the yard where Mr. Blanchard’s flocks are kept fhe seems much the same as the other fowl there and gives no in- dication of her extraordinary age. She is active and eats well. She may live for years more, though' the average of hens that are allowed to go' as far as they like is said to be not much mere than ten' years, Some time sinde Mr. Blanchard was. besought to permit the grand old lady to be taken to the big poultry show at Boston, but he refused, fearing risks to_her health that might prove fatal. Her photograph has been taken, however, and represents as much in her own royal line as do some shafts of granite erected in memory of some persons and things. _'HAS PNEUMONIA. Chisf of Police George M. Taken Seriousty 1, Chief George-M. Pilling of the police department was taken seriously il Thursday - and at night the trouble developed to.pneumonia, a disease that is afflicting an unusual number of per- gons here at present.

In_ Union hall Sunday afteracon members of Putnam aerie, No. 1894, Eagles to Lease Union Hall. F. O. E, are to confer a degree upon alarge class. The lodge's membership is now at the 300 mark, making it one of the largest fraternal orsanizations in the city. The lodge has practicaliy completed negotiations for the lease of Union hall for a period of five years for use as a lodge room, giving them the most commodious quarters of the king in the city. The Eagles intend to sub-let the hall so that it will be avall~ able for the largely attended social events of the city. Lease Farm for Camp School. Local friends are interested in the announcement that Burt Leon Yorke, B. A, M. A, a graduate of both Am- herst and Yale, and Clara Olney Yorke, a teacher of wide experience, are to conduct the Yorke school at Overlook farm, Lake Winnepesaukee, N. H., this summer. Both are graduates of Put- nam High school. An estate of suitable buildings, with 235 acres of woodland, field and meadow, in a location which gives am- ple opportunity for the school to real- ize its ideals, has been secured. The school is the outgrowth of a summer vacation camp for girls estab- lished 11 years ago. So rapidly aid the camp-school grdw that “No” had to be said to 36 applicants last year. This demand for admission resulted in the securing of the fine estate that is hereafter to be the headquarters of the school. Farmers Want Market for Produce. Some of the leading farmers of the county who have been careful thought to the problems that it is hoped the newly formed Windham County Farm- ers' association will solve, have sug- gested that one great thing which the business men interested in the profect might do is to devote their energies to be expended in the interest of the association toward finding a market for the farmers' produce. “Show me a market where I can get $1.25 for every dollar's worth of produce that I can bring in, and I will show you a substantial increase in the amount of my produce,” said one of the best known farmers in the county while in this city Thursday afternoon, “and what applies to me in this case ap- plies to a great many other farmers that I know.” This man is anxious to see the as- sociation succeed. He belleves that if the interested business men can evelve some scheme that will give the farm- ers a better market, & market in which they can get in closer touch with the retail buyers, that a great triumph will have been achieved. It is under- stood that some of the business men who have promised to work with the association are studying various prop- ositions to meet this demand of the farmer and hope to reach some result that will produce the results sought. “ Were Norwich for Banquet About a score of members of the Putnam Business Men's association were at Norwich Thursday evening to attend the banquet given under the au- spices of the Eastern Connecticut De- velopment assoclation at the Y aure- gan house. The majority of those who attended the banquet returned here on the State of Maine express early this morning. Hopes State Farm Bill Support. Judge Edgar M. Warner of this city, father of the bill providing an appro- priation for the establishment of a state farm for inebriates, has been ex- pecting that the bill would be reported in the legislature by the committee on humane institutions this week. Judge ‘Warner and others who have the in- terest of the bill at heart have re- ceived a number of encouraging prom- ises of support for the measure when it comes up for consideration, and it may pass, as it did two years ago, fail- ing to become a law because Governor Simeon E. Baldwin did not affix his signature to the bill. Judge Warner ‘has heard one suggestion from mem- bers of the legislature for building ‘an annex to the state hospital for the in- sane at Norwich for the use of the in- ebriates, but it is hardly expected that such an’ amrangement would adequately solve the problems that the state farm for inebriates is intended to meet suc- cesstully. PLAINFIELD Wet Snow Still Packed Roads—Gale Breaks Flagpole. Robert Dawley recently visited his sister, Mrs. George Edwards, of ‘Washington, R. I Mrs. Allen E. Davis of Flat Rock, who has been seriously 1ll with pneu- monia for two weeks, is now suffering from an attack of the mumps. Mrs. Davis has nursed her four children and more than that number of grandchil- dren through the mumps and escaped them herself until the present time.

The Task That Lincoln Left is the subject of an address on the new non- partisan movement for a saloonless na- tion to be delivered by Rev. Walter E. Landphear, A. M., of Hartford, in the M. E. church next Sunday. Mr. Land- phear represents the Connecticut Tem- perance union and in his address will show that this movement for an amend- ment of the national constitution is the greatest of all temperance movements; that, as marking an epoch, it is com- parable to the emancipation movement and that the abolition of the liquor traffic was the next great question in the heart and mind of Lincoln; also it is shown that the saloon is fast going and that it is sure to be banished from the nation at no distant date.

The misery of poor health due to poor digestion is over —for those who kfiow Rheumasalts, the wonderful effervescent drink. E No more sour stomach, griping pains, rumbling of bowels and trembling limbs — nothing but a desire to eat what you want when you want it—without any “Kick back.” Your health depends largely upon what you eat and how it is digested. Undi- gested, fermenting, putrifying food is one of the greatest handicaps your body has. And it is\all unnecessary, if you let Rheu- masalts help you. i If you are bothered with indigestion, ask your drugist for about five ounces of Rheumasalts; take two teaspoonfuls in 3¢ glass of water before breakfast each morning and in & few days you will be able to digest your food in a perfect man- ner. Rheumasalts is very inexpensive. It does not cause nausea. It is delicious to Rheumabath Company, Minn. 25c. 50¢ and $1.00 Bottles. ERNEST M. ARNOLD PUTNAM, CONN.
