I e What I8 Going On Tonight Natchaug Lodge, No. 22, K. of P, Jordan Block. - Yi'lUnSon St.” Jean Baptiste, St. Mary’s Hall. TODAY’S ELECTION CLOSE. No Progressive or Independent Tick- ot, So Contest a Straight Heat Be- tween Dunn and Taylor—Ward Prospect: The chief interest in the biennial city election to be held today is whether Danfel P. Dunn, mayor of the city for ten consecutive years, will continue in office for the next two years. With the addition of the term previous to Mayor Dunn's first election, when O. O. Tanner was elected, the democrats have held possession of the highest office in_the gift of the city for twelve years. George F. Tavlor, the candidate of the republicans two years ago, when he was defeated by only 99 votes, is again opposing Mayor Dunn, and 'his adherents say he has an excellent chance to win out. His work for the community as a member of the build- ing committee on_ the splendid new high school and Natchaus grammar school, and the prominent part taken Ly him in the successful Old Sehool and Home Week last june are pointed to by the republicans as showing his fitness for public office. On the other hand, the democrats claim that Mavor Dunn’s popularity, always to be reckoned with, fered no diminution during the past two vears, and that Danny will again breeze in o winner, as he has every time he has Deen 2 candidate. At the last eclection, Dr. George E. Wiicox ran as an independent candi- date, polling 142 votes, and J. C. Bar- stow, progressive, polled 36 The pro- gresiivo party has no candidate thi year, and there is no independent tick- e, So that the disposition of those 175 votes may decide the election. Ordinarily, the first, second and fourth wards are republican, tho third ward democratic, the last’ generally giving a large enough majority to the democratic ticket to elect the alder- men-at-iarge _and the mayor. This year considerable interest will center in the third ward, where Clifford L. Smith opposes William L. Jen present incumbent.

Y., to Begin Service at Thread Com- pany’s Plant. Jiiss Harriet A. Taber, of Brooklvn, N. Y., arrived in this city Saturday to take charge of the newly started first aid and .welfare work in connection | with the American Thread company. The company is about to start first aid stations in four of their mill build- ings, where any slight injuries may be taken care of, in order that they do not become more severe, and Where reg- ulation first aid work will be done. In addition, welfare work looking toward the prevention of accident and the bet- terment of conditions of sanitation and health will be conducted, in line with the policy of the company, which is most liberal in its plans for the benefit of its employes. iss Taber was for twelve years assistant to the district nursing com- mittee of Brooklyn, doing field work in connection with her duties there, and was for three years assistant su- perintendent of the organization. She also saw service at the Bush Ter- minal, where she did social service work for some months. VOTING LIST 2,083. Gain of But 17 Since the List of 1913 Was Corrected. The perfected voting lists to be used in today’s election shdw a total of 2,053 names, as compared with 2,036 in 1913, a gain of seventeen only. In the fourth ward there are 31 more names than two years ago. The other wards all show losses. as follsw : First ward 3, second ward 10, third ward 1. The lists have been carefully revised dur- ing €iie past yvear by Eimer D. Young and P. D. Donohue, the registrars, and all the “dead wood” eliminated, which accounts for the small apparent gain in the totals. Two hundred ninety- two voters have been made and added to the lists and there have been in the neighborhood of nine hundred changes in address. On the average, about 80, per cent. of the number on the list vote, although at the last town elec- tion the largest vote ever polled in an off year was recorded. Generally speak- ing, nine hundred votes means a win for the candidate receiving that num- ber today, although the actual number received by the winning candidate has less than that on ELKS’ LODGE OF SORROW.

For years and years we have been telling the people of Norwich that Vinol is a wonderful remedy for bron- chial troubles. Here is positive proof:— Tilden, Ill. “For five vears I suf- fered from bronchial asthma. In the winter time 1 was obliged to sit in a Morris chair all night, as I could not lie down, owing to that dreadful choking sensation. I tried nearly every known remedy, but nothing gave me any relief until one day I met the Station Agent at Willisville, 1ll, and he said he had been a suf- ferer for years, but had been cured by Vinol I at once commenced to take it, and the result is my cough is goné, my appetite has improved, and I can lie down and sleep all night, and my experience leads me to be- lieve that Vinol is a certain remedy for bronchial asthma.” John H. Con- dell, Tilden, Iil. The reason that cough syrups fail in such cases is because they are paliative only, while Vinol removes the cause, being a constitutional rem- edy in which are combined the heal- ing elements of fresh cod livers, to- gether with tonic iron and beef pep- tone. It strengthens and revitalizes the entire system and assists nature to expel the disease. G. G. Engler, Rroadwar Pharmacy. Nowwich )y DANIELSON Dr. and Mrs. Robinson at Asheville— K. H. 8.

Dr. and Mrs. Rienzi Robinson have been guests at the Battery Park hotel, Asheville, N. C. the past week, and expect to remain there until after the holidays. They report dry, sunny weather, much like spring days in the north, Roswell Moffitt in Jail. Roswell Moffitt is at Brooklyn jail for 90 days, sent up from the town of Plainfield by Justice George L. Torrey on charges of vagrancy, intoxication and camping. No more serious charge was placed against Moffitt, who has been under surveillance by officers for some time. Teddy Cassent has been considering the purchase of the Moosup hotel. Mr. Cassent at one time recently negotiat- ed for the purchase of the Central house property here, recently sold to C._H. Michael of Terryville. The week closed with 69 prisoners at the Brooklyn jail, the number in- carcerated there having mounted steadily during the past few weeks, as is ueually the case at the beginning of real cold weather. Dancing Popular as Ever. The dance fever is running as high as a star baseballist's batting average in Danlelson this season—and there is more than a passing excuse for it. The magnificent new floor at the state armory has them coming. There was a blg crowd out Saturday evening, when the Beacon Singing orchestra of Webster played for the dancers. Woodstock Academy Defeated. The Killingly High school team had an easy time defeating the Woodstock academy team in town hall, 47 to 4.

The death early Friday morning of Mrs. Herbert Moran at East Killingly followed an attack of illness that was unusual. Mrs. Moran had been out to a Thanksgiving eve entertainment and was on her way home when she fell to the ground unconscious. She was taken to her home and from then on her condition continued critical. There doesn't seem to be a very response to the call for new dweilings in Danielson, although their construction seems vitally important to the period of prosperity the bor- ough is enjoying, as mill concerns are having great difficulty in finding rents for families that could be employed here. Perhaps the “drive” like the long-delayed one of the allies, may come in the spring. The benefits of police patrol in Dan- ielson are at once apparent. The streets have been kept free of objec- tionable characters since the new ser- vice was introduced and the same has been true of the evening hours. The patrolmen have found their duties, so far as keeping order is concerned, de- cidedly light. Dayville a Freight-Receiving Point. As a receiving point for freight, Day- ville has been taking on prominence during the past few weeks.

The methods used were wsimilar to those employed by the burglars who entered Sede's Clothing store a few weeks ago and the work may have been done by the same gang. Sunday two old over- coats were found discarded near what is known as the Sand Bar, indicat- ing that the burglars went in that di- rection and that they had discarded the old for the new stolen garments.
