SOLD FLOUR CHEAP. But Small Boys Who Peddled It Had Stolen It. The price of flour took & week end tumble in Danlelson. Don't ‘get over- enthusiastic about this, however, pros- pective huyers, because old prices have been restored. The flour that was sold here at 50 cents or thereabouts for an eighth barrel bag was stolen from H. H. Starkweather's warehouse on Fur- nace street, where a Hartford firm keeps a large supply for distribution to_local dealers as they order. Two_little Polish boys—aged re- spectively 10 and 7 years—have admit- ted the theft. The story they tell is that they were hired by a man who represepted himself to be the owner of the flour to break out a window in the warekouse, get the flour out and canvass for sales, they to-Teceive a commission for their work. They used a boy’s express wagon to transport the stuff and were doing a very good busi- ness indeed when rounded up. One woman bought 12 bags and their total of sales amounted to 32 bags. Th they say. and turned the remainder of the money over to the mysterious man. Much of the flour sold was recovered and returned to the warehouse. No action has been taken against the boys.

HUSBAND CLAIMED FRAUD. But Jackson Marriage Was Not An- nulled in Superior Court. Judge James H. Wel sitting in the -::eflor court here, o 'bb, deciined to annul the marriage ‘wrence H. Jackson of Portland, Conn., ang Mabel son, Mr. Jackson being the plaintift in the action. Mr. Jackson, through his attorney. claimed annulment. on the sround of fraudulent contract. Haddam, It was claimed for the that he at_that time Dbe- lelved as the result of*talks that had previously=taken place between him- self and/the woman who had become his bride that she was, so far as she knew, capable; plaintift it was charged, that previous to and in the interest of her heaith the defendant in the action had been obliged to submit to an' operation that preciuded any likel$hood of her Recoming & mother in the future. The plaintiff claimed that he was not informed of the operation previous to his marriage. On the ground that unfrulltfulness was not a_sufficlent ground by itmelf for the annulment of the marriage, Judge Webb did not order that it be annulled. Increase in School Enumeration. Evidence that Putnam is growing, h evidence coming from various sources of late, is contained in the enumeration figures just returned of the number of children of school age— 4 to 16 years—in the town at this 623, an increase ; for last year. The children are enumerated by di tricts as follows: Smith street, 781: Israel Putnam, 665; Sawyer, 9; Putnam Helgh! 26; total 1.623. The town of Putnam is allowed $2.25 | each year for ald in the education of | each child so enumerated. s0_that . the town will receive considerable more revenue than was the case in 1914. he greater part of the children enumerated in the Smith Street dis- trict are puplls atfending St. Mar; Parochial school. Apple Crop to Be Small. L. H. Healey, one of the best known farmers in the town of Woodstock, stated while in this eity Saturday aft- ernoon that the apples picked in that well known fruit section of Windham county will be very few this fall. On many farms three fourths of the apples grown during the season have fallen from the trees. The cause of this is difficult to determine, but it is a pe- culiar condition existing__throughout the state this vear, Mr. Healey. says. Cement Gutters For Union Street. Cement gutters six feet in width are being laid on both sides of Unfon street, which is to be paved with am- eisite. The gutters are really cob. bie stones ‘ald in cement, which is poured over them so as to completely cover the stones and then smoothed over. The idea of this is to protect the street from being torn up by horses that may be hitched there when the strest js reopened for use, Hitching posts are to be set on both sides of the street. As such posts hase been taken from the main thofoughfares in the business section it has been deem- ed advisable to make provision _for hitching horses in this side street, where the animals may pound the ce- ment and stone gutters with their hoofs wihtout doing damage. To Decide Trade School Matter T night. A large attendance is looked for this evening at the s town meeting that has been called to see if the town will vote to appropriate about 320,000 for the construction of a trade school buflding in this city. Men who are favorable to the plan have been doing some active work on this matter for the past few Gays. As a number of the prominent _citizens of the city are backing the plan, the opinion in Put- nam Saturday seemed to be that the appropriation would likely be made. County Sunday Schoel Convention.
