Additional operatives for the plan of the Danielson Cotton company ar- rived here Tuesday. All of the com- pany’s tenements are about to be fill- ed and more homes than are available are to be needed to house the peopie ‘who will be required to run the plant. It is understood that some of the dwellings of the Quinebaug company may be made available for the new- comers, as there are a few vacant tenements in the West Side of the village. The Danielson Cotton company is to start several hundred new looms that are being made ready to run on large orders received and it is expected to soon have the plant working to ca- pacity. This mill was entirely equipped with new machinery two or three years ago and it now looks as if all will be run- ning in a very short time. This good news means additional prosperi- ty for the borough, which gets some fayors as well as a few knocks as the. old world continues to roll around. Incre; in Town" $5,000 Figures that haye been compiled, Ty officials of different departments of the town indicate that the increase in the indebtedness of the town will not be shown by the forthcoming town reports as was expected fo rthe fiscal vear that closed July 31. In the early part of the fiscal ymr it was certain that the increase debt would amount to $10,000. This figure was too high, it was stated by one of the members of the board of selectmen in discussing the madtter Tuesday. An estimate of the increase in debt is about $5,000, though it may b less or somewhat more than this sum. In every department of the town rigid economy has been practice@ dur- ing the past year. Only very neces- sary repairs have been made to high- ways and notwithstanding the roads wore well until the heavy rains of the past fe wweeks. Eventually, however, what was saved on the highways this year will have to be paid out again When expensive repairs begin to be needd. Another feature that has help- ed keep expense down this vear has been the ‘lesser amount paid for out- side poor. On the whole, it is said that the town reports will show a very satis- factory yvear of town administration, considering the handicaps of a finan- cial neture under which the ‘officials have been obliged to labor. L. J. COBURN AGAIN Former Local Promoter Turns Up in Maine Town Boom Relatives to an inquiry that came to him relative to the purchase of the stock of the Glencoe Woolen company, the editor of a well known textile journal in the issue of August 12 gives some interesting advice to a subscrib- er who wrote him for information cn the subject.~ The matter become of local interest because ome of the new men in the Glencoe organization is L. J. Coburn, head of the Industrial and Manufact. uring company, which boomed dustrial place in Danielson. The Glencoe company’s plant is at Sangerville, Me. One of its recent ad- vertisements relative to selling the stock of the organization,, reads in part as follows: “Seven per cent at home in the good old State of Maine. The Glencoe Woolen Company, recently incorpo- rated under the laws of Maine, is about to purchase all the assets of the Sangerville Woolen Sangerville, Maine, including two fine- Iy built and well equipped woolen mills together with a very valuable water power, developing at both mills about 150 horse power. These mills are ready to run’ when the working capital is raised. The town of San- gerville has shown its confidente in this enterprise by voting on July 12 to exempt this property from taxation for a period of ten years, which means many thousands of dellars in divi- dends for the people who invest money to operate these mills. The pmpany included in this pur- chase has been very conservatively valued at $200,000, but the ‘Woolen Company is in a position to secure this property at a ery iow figure, therefore the company in order to secure this property and have sufficient working capital is placing on the market ns‘m worth of 7 t ‘nd dividends also cumulative.

It is said that the new manufac- turing concern that is to locate in this city is negotiating for the pur- chase of dwelling houses for the use of employes. More than $100 has been pledged by business and-professional men toward the purchase from Mansfield Hose com- pany of the hose truck that the mem- bers bought a number of years ago and placed in the service of the city. Indications are that Putnam will have one of the low death rates of the state during August, this being in great contrast to the high mortality records here during the late winter and spring months. Elijah Saunders Before Thompson Court. Blijah Saunders, known in Danfel- son, East Killingly and across the Rhode Island border, was taken into custody here Tuesday morning by Captain_Murray upon request from Deputy Sheriff W. N. Bates, who want- ed the man to face a charge in the town of Thompson. Saunders was turned over to Sheriff Bates, who took him to the neighboring town. There were no developments of special in- terest, however, and Saunders return- ed here in the afternoon. Activity in Library Contest. The scramble for votes in the li- rary contest has grown more acute in this city within the past few days and is now at its height. A special drive is being made by friends of the high school and they are now talking in millions when the vote-getting con- test is up for discussion. The F. O. Eagles are also out hustling and ex- tending their campaign outside of the city and_throush eastern Windham county. St. Mary’s school supporters are also busy as bees in getting votes from all quarters. e MAY GET TAFTVILLE For Saturday’s Game—Webster Man- ager Fails to Post Challenge Money. To guard against the possibility of having no_game here for Saturday next, the Webster management bav- ing failed to come across up to early Tuesday evening with the necessary sum to cover Manager Teddy Cassent’s $200 posted with the sporting editor of a Worcester paper, Mr Cassent has opened negotiations With the Taftville team to take the date provisionally. Something definite will probdably be decided today. I Taftville comes here Saturday it will be with a greatly strengthened team, for Manager John Benoit has agreed with Manager Cassent to bring a real live wire organization here. Welsh wil] probably do the pitching for the visitors if Taftville comes here. The Putnam battery will be made up of McLean and Leddy or Williams,| the latter a real smoke artist, VOTES $10,000 APPROPRIATION. Special City Meeting Favors Per- manent Paving for Several Streets. By a vote of 233 to 33 the special city meeeting of Tuesday voted in favor of making an appropriation of $10,000 for laying permanent paving in Union square, Union street, Elm street from May to Providence street and the entire length of Providence street from School street to Wood- stock avenue. It was also voted to lay curbing on the southerly side of Prov- idence street from Marshall to Lamont street. The majority in favoer of the im- provement shows that the greater part of the opposition that previously de- layed the favorable action for per- manent paving in these streets, or in some of the sections to be improved, has been dissipated by the conferences and the consideration relative to the matter during the past few weeks. Whea the work 1a finished Pm:mm will have main thoroughfares in the central and northern part of the city in as fine condition as any New Eng- land city. The entire length of Elm street will then be paved @s well as the entire length of Providence street, where there is a great deal of traffic. John A. Dady, alderman-at-large, presided at the meeting.
