Theory That Blow Was Intended For Her Husband, For some time an nvestigation has been quietly made to discover the identity of a person who wickedly as- saulted Mrs. Chester Codding at her home. She was called-to the door one evening and told to notify her hus- band that his cows were loose, Mr. Codding was in another part of thd house and Mrs. Codding went and told him about the matter. As she was re- turning a blow was aimed at her and struck with such farce as to painfully injure her. It is believed that her as- sailant intended {he blow for her hus- band and in the darkness mistook the woman for the man. The fellow made his ' escape. The story about the cows being loose was a hoax. Court of Inquiry. . CHAMBER OF COMMERCE Thanked by Eclipse Company of Bos- ton for Aid—Over $500 Pledged in Dues—Meeting Thursday Evening. The Putnam Chamber of Commerce moved into its new office Thursday, held a directors’ meeting there Friday, and received many new applications for membership during the week just past. The meeting of the body Thurs- day night will have much important business laid defore it as a result of the activity of the The membership campaign has b ively carried on by the mem. bers. Since the dues were raised this year, the present mi as well as many new applicants are signing up to indicate how much they will pay. The dues now are $2, $5. $10 and $25 an- nually, the privileges being the same, and the only difference being the amount of momey that the individual feels able and willing to give to ad- vance the work of the organization, By Saturday night over $500 in dues had been pledged, with about half of the present members yet to hear from, and scores -of good prospects not yet seen. This is gratifying to the officers, be- cause that sum had been set as the minimum on which it would be possi- ble to do business, and the chances appear good for enough money to go forward with & more comprehensive Pprogramme. ‘The new offices in the Union block, above the postoffice, formerly occupied by B. M. Barney, are already proving their usefulness. W. C. Kennedy, county farm agent, has his desk there, as the rooms are used jointly by the Chamber of Commerce and the Wind- ham County Farmers’ association. Jo- seph L. Ryan is in charge and keeps the offices open all day and is avail- able both as stenographer and clerk for the two assoclations. A private wire has been installed by the tele- phone company, No. 380, with a listing for each orgenization. Several meet- ings have already been held there, and the location has proved convenient for informal conferences. A letter was received Saturday from the Eclipse Manufacturing company of Boston thanking the Chamber of Commerce for the help given the com- pany in locating in Putnam. They will take possession in e few days of at least one room of the shop, and the rest at-a very early date, Neither of the partners will reside here for the present, but the man engaged in N¢ York as an instructor of helpwill move here at once, and so will about a dozen skilled workmien, all married men. It appears as if an impetus to building houses might result. At the meeting of the directors Fri- day evening reports were made by A. D..Lown and C. S. Andem of the vis- its made to the textile schools at Low- ell, Fall River and New Bedford. A committee consisting of these two and J. W. Sherry, Alexander Gilman and Archibald Macdonald was appointed some time ago to study the trade school situation and offer suggestions for its development. Some definite ac- tion will be proposed soon. Thursday evening the principal bus- iness before the meeting will probably be deciding what is the most important thing for the Chamber of Commerce to turn its hand to first. There are a number of subjects under discussion, including proposals for a mew charter for the city, possibly involving consoli- dation with the town and a commission form of government. The president was instructed by the last meeting of the association to eppoint as strong a committee as possible to take this question up. Revaluation of taxable property has also been urged as a most important subject. The opinion has been put forward that Putnam would present even more obvious advantages to prospective new industries if the veluation was made lower, so that the tax rate should not appear to be higher than it really is as compared to actual values. Others urge that questions of more immediate return, like garbage disposal, should receive attention first. ‘The officers take the stand that they ere the servants of the members and that questions of such importance should be decided in opem meeting. Therefore they say that they. will ask the members to decide what should be Prosecuting Attorney A. G.
