Brittany is _al- ways the “Land of Pardons,” a bleak, wind-swept peninsula full of silent, undemonstrative folk who live by the harvest of the sea. Dauphine, whose Alpine sierras saw the horizon with the snowy teeth, burns with glorious sunsets that fire its savage grandeur; Burgundy, of the Champagne of the ‘liquid sunshine’; Auvergne, of the dead volcanoes, like glant 'bee- hives, and Touraine, that was and still is the playground of France, are all characteristic and easily remem- bered. “Not less s0 is Normandy, with its shimmering streams and its wide- spread orchards of cider apples—acres and clouds of pink and white and quick with the thin, sweet, subtile fra- grance.

Woodward encountered an unappreciative prisoner in the town court Monday morning in the person of Christopher Anderson, a holiday. period celebrator. The court, after listening to much of the prisoner's talk, proposed to permit the defendant to go upon payment of costs of $8.09. Anderson started to bargain, wanted to pay $5 and get credit for the re- mainder and finally said he would think over the proposition of paying. JFudge ward gave him 30 days in jail, during which period it is ex- pected he will have ample time to ar- rive at a decision. LEASE ORPHEUM AGAIN. J. F. Lewis and 8. D. Brown Acquire Control for Five Extra Years. Announcement is made that J. F. Lewis, residemt manager, and S. Brown, Providence, have 'again maed the Ofpheum theater of William S. Brown, this time for a period of five years, ‘in addition to the year from about this date that the present lease has to run. As mnnfier here Mr. Lewis has given the public high ciass service—sverything ihat could be rea- ly expected, size of the town and its drawing territory considered—and he has been successful in building up a theater service that has been ap- preciated and generously patronized. During the next six years, Mr. Lewis says, the same plan of providing high grade service will be followed. No opportupnity to give Danielson and the surrounding towns the best that can be given in this territory will be overlooked. THIRTEENTH CO. EXAMINATIONS. Artillerymen Put to the Test Monday Evening. Captain E. L. Darbie, Captain Beorse E. Church and Lieutenant Hugh M. Bell, oon-utuun‘ the gunners’ exam- ‘board for this Brooklyn with dirsc- Hoas relative 1 the depositing of sinking fund of the town as were ou lined in .the While it will always be my aim to steer our city’s -destinies along the road to progress, I have ~refrained from making any _recommendations requiring n great outlay of money, for I honestly fes! that our citizens are alrendy too heavily burdemed by tax- ation: Some of you gentiemen are not new to the reguirements and _duties _of wyour office ag public servants. ' But whether new or.old, let us-ail unite for the common good, and while we shonld be ever mindful that pro- gress is essential, let economy be the watchword, remembering that every ounce of waste makes the burden so much harder for. the fellows who al- ways have. to settle the bills. I earnestly fnvite all our citizens who wish, te“come and listen to' the de- iiberations of this council; and should any wish fo be heard on maiters per- taining’ to the city’s welfaze, .1 will guarantee them a hearing in so far as the powers ve: in my office will allow. Submits Six Rmmm-ndlfiom. Citizens all, and fellow members of thig eouncil, your, héarty cooperation and support, and will conclwae by .submitting these appended recommendations: 1. I would recommend that the council take such action that every verson receiving compensation for any reason from the city, be paid by in- dividval. check direct from and by the treasurer in person. It is more business-like, and will help to elim- inate chances of mistakes. has been rumored that there have been persons within the city !imits, - who have improperly appro- priated the city's water service to avoid paying the usual water charges, thereby defrauding our citizens. I would recommend that an ordinance be enacted, requiring that all plumb- ers be licensed before being allowed to do work within'the city limits; and that they be required to make a full and proper report of any and all work of whatever nature done by them, and pertaining to our water system to the water commissioners, or ' other proper committes. 3.1 think that greater efficiency would be obtained by the consolida- tion of the sewsfage and water de- partments. I would recommend that you give this matter your early and earnest consideration. Post your- selves thoroughly on matters pertain- ing to these two departments; so that, if in your judgment a change should be made, you.can act the more under- standingly in drafting the - proper ordinance. 4. My attentlon has been called to the fact that our citizens are liable to great danger should we have a storm severe enough to cross any high tension wires with our fire alarm sys- tem, owing to the fact that our alarm system is not properly grounded. The fact that this condition may have ex- Isted since the system was installed would lessen the city's mspomlbillty in case of accident. I would recommend that the prop- er committee take this matter up with the scperintendent of alarms, and if it should be found that great danger is Hable, then the conditions should be righted with the greatest possible . While this matter will re- quire an outlay of money, it should not be compared With the danger to human life, which is the most valuable thing on this earth. 5. Several reputable, and to my mind strictly honest citizens have warned me that liquor is being dis- pensed within our police jurisdfction on Sundays, which is contrary to law, ang prejudicial to the good order of this, or any kindred evil bling and the like ex- ut ‘I hope our citizens have beén mistaken), the practice must stop This is the right now. that I will issue. = All the power that fall mnn‘n -will, be grateful for.| Special Atfe—tion to Every Detail. Joseph Ryan, who was appointed chief of police, resigned as democratic member of the common council ftom the Second ward. His successor will be elected at a meeting of the common council this evening, and it is said that Charles Miron will be the choice. Republican City Cour Judge Again. Monday was a great day for chang- es and rumors of changes in regard to political offices in Putnam. It mark- ed the advent of the democratic ma- Jority into power in the common § council and a change of judges of! the city court, but in this latter trans- action the democrats ‘did not figure. Monday morning Judge - Mahlon H. Gelssler, who Las been filling the office of judge for more than a year, retired and administered theé oath of office to his successor, Judge L. H. Fuller, republican, who comes back to his former position after an ab- | sence of two years, during a part of which Judge J. Harry Mann, a demo- crat, filled the place. The appoint- | menrit of judge of the. city court rests [ with the legislature and Judge Ful- ler's appointment is .for a team ot two years. Crowds at Theater. Hundreds who saw the Birth of A Nation for the first time at the Brad- les theater Monday afternoon and ev- lering did what every other audience and all of the millions ¢f people who iave- heretofore seen it have -donep- proclaimed it an extraordinary sereen production add. fully meriting all the praise that has been showered upon it. The picture was given complets hera. Parts that were. censored out of the picture following protests to oficials of some of the larger cities were thown here and added to the in- terest and compléteness of a story’ that js_remarkable in -its conception and production. . An orchestra ot wore than a dozen trained musicians piaying the special music written for the picture added greatly to the effect of the production. There were some in the audlence whose emotions were S0, touched by the stirring scenes as te cause them to shed -tears and ome White-Luired old lady who had the horiors of war. vididly recalled t> her mind and the loss of relatives brought back to her mind left after the great battle scene.

Corbin, night police re- porter on Worcester's leading paper and at one timo city editor of The Observer here, figired in a heroic_role at the Putnam-Thurston fire in Wor- cester. His own paper had the fol- lowing to say on Monday relative to his disregard for_danger in his effort to aid others: When the fire broke out Harold S. Corbin was one of the first on the scene in answer to the alarm. Corbin rushed into the smoke and flame-filled bullding and materi- ally aided police clearing upper fioors of inmates. His work was especiall dangerous, as there were times when the veterans were forced to retreat before stifiing smoke. He aided in taking. sev of the rescued people gut of the danger zone.
