QUARANTINE NOW'EFFECTIVE Mayor Dunn Considers Present Health Precautions Sufficient. ¢ = Mayor Dunn stated Wednesday af- ternoon that there would be no meet- ing of the board of aldermen in regard to the quarantine that the city is now under. He also said that the system in vogue has met with success to date, as there has been no cases of the par- alysis reported to the health officer, nd he can see no reason for taking action at this time. The two deaths from infantile par- alysis that have occurred recently near the city line prompted Health Officer Jenkins to confer with the mayor on the matter. The former was of the opinion that the placing of guards about the city would more thoroughly guard it than is now the case. Dr. Danielson, health officer of Leb- anon, stated that there were no new cases in his district and that the homes of the two boys who recently died of the dlsease are under quaran- ne. Health Officer Newland Cobb, of Colchester _reports two cases of the disease. The patients are small chil- dren and seem to be improving. Health Officer C. E.

Deacon and Son File Voluntary Petition in Bankruptcy — Josephine Snow Figures in Brief Romance— Mayor J. J.

Deacon & Son have filed a volun- tary petition in bankruptcy with the clerk of the United States district court at Hartford, the papers being received there Wednesday. Harry Deacon and Howard Deacon, members of the firm, filed the petition, both as members of the firm and as individ- uals. The assets of the concern are siven as approxicately $5,400, $5,000 of which is represented by the stock in their store at Danielson, the remainder in money due the firm. The debts of the concern are given as about $20,000. Of this amount about $13,000 is due to wholesale firms with which the firm has done busi- ness. The other $7,000 represents bor- rowed money, secured by notes. After adjudication the matter will be referred to A. J. Bowen, of Willi- mantic, referee in bankruptcy, who will set a date for a hearing of the creditors. Deacon & Son commenced doing a dry goods business in this city in Oc- tober, 1914, moving from here to Dan- lelson March 1 of this year. ROMANCE RUDELY HALTED Josephine Shaw, 18, Who Left for Springfield to Follow Young White Man, Brbught Back at Mother’s Re- quest. A flash into the world of romance— and Josephine Shaw, 18, colored, was back on her job again Wednesday as a helper in tiie boarding house of Lo- rinda Laroux, Mill street. Her visions of bridal bliss were but short-lived, for it was not very long atter she left here Tuesday morning that an inquiry was instituted by her mother, through police channels, to locate ‘the missing girl, who was promptly located in Springfield. An officer accosted her as she stepped from a train in that city, freshly arrived from Putnam and informed her that she was wanted back home. Shortly afterwards the wires ticked Off a mes sage to Captain Joseph A. Ryan that the girl was being held, awaiting in- structions from Putnam. Josephine asked for a day off Tues- day, indicating that she wanted to spend the time at the Jackson farm, not far from the city. Not long after- wards it was learned that Josephine had left town, and this taken with the fact that a young white man with whom she has been friendly for some time was also among the missing, led to an investigation. Captain Ryan was prompt in ascer- taining that Josephine had bought at the railroad station here a ticket for Springfleld, and as her train had not then reached that city it was not a difficult matter to work the wires and have her held upon her arrival. The girl was much downcast when taken into custody and remained so during her stay in Springfield, which extended until such time as Captain Ryan could go there to escort her back home. Though the police of Spring- field had been asked to arrest the young white man also, action to_be taken under the Mann act, he had not been located up to the time of the departure of Captain Ryan and Jo- sephine for Putnam. The girl srieved over the cold gray mantle of restriction that had been dropped over her rose-colored dreams of the future and went so far as to say that if harm came to the missing young man she might figure much the same as one of the prominent fig- ures in the Lambert-Onpey case, and that her friends might be prepared to send her flowers. Upon arrival here she became more reconciled to the play of fortune, how- ever, and went back to work with at least pleasant remembrances of beau- tiful country scenery as viewed from the window of a raflroad coach and the not depressing experience of a cross-country run to Putnam in an automoble. MAYOR McGARRY TO BUILD to Erect Three-story Brick Store and Residence. Plans Mayor J. J. McGarry announced on Wednesday that he has practically decided to erect a three-story brick structure on the McGarry property at the corner of Grove and South Main streets. Blds for the work are to be asked for within a few days, and it is thought probable that the work of erecting the building may be under- taken at an early date. The building is to front on Grove street, facing the site that was pur- chased, a few years ago, by the gov- ernment for a postoffice building. The lower floor of the proposed structure will be used by the mavor for his business, which he established at the corner of Grove and South Main streets a few years ago, and which has flourished very satisfactorily. The two upper floors are to be used as a residence. The proposed building be 48 by 23 feet. Council Wants Taxes Collected. Following a report by Alfred Bonne- will ville, collector of city taxes, that a few persons liable for such assess- ment have refused to pay street sprinkling taxes, the common council voted that it is the sense of the coun- cil that the mayvor should take such steps as may be necessary to enforce the collection of taxes due the city, the council indicating that it would be solidly behind the chief executive in his effort to do so.
