Mrs. Sarah Carroll Jacobs, widow of the late Luther R. Case, who for years was identified with the business interests of Norwich, died at her res- idence, 148 Broad street, at 7 o'clock Monday evening. She had been stricken with a very severe attack of acute indigestion ten days ago, but rallied sufficlently to be able to be about her home and her complele recovery was confidently looked forward to. A sudden relapse, however, occur- red late Monday afternoon which re- sulted in her death. Mrs, Case was the daughter of the late Captain Joseph Dresser Jacobs and Sarah Carroll Jacobs and her ear- iy life was passed in Thompson, Conn., where she was born.

In 1870 she was united in marriage with the late Lu- ther R. Case. Two children were born on this union, a daughter, Emma Louise Case, who died in 1894, and James L. Case of this city, who sur- vives his mother. Edward J. Dray. Former Alderman Edward J.

The Davis theatre ushered in the New Year with four complete shows on Monday, and the program present- ed for the approval of the large sized houses was up to the usual high stan- dard. Dinglespiel's Night School, pre- sented by the Hippodrome Four, was one of the liveliest acts of its kind ever brought to Norwich, and the four succeeded in keeping the audience on the stir all the time they were before the footlights: They have several fine vocal numbers and their dancing ranks among the best. Their special scenery is appropriate to the act and they wmade quite a hit with the audiences. Another feature number in the vau- deville was the act presented by Force and Williams, who were seen in_an exclusive comedy novelty billed as Shi- high With Si. This proved an act of unusual merit and both received a shower of applause from the delighted audiences. ‘The Inebriate and the Bachelor was the third act and was presented by the Latoy Brothers, both natural com- edians and tumbling artists. 3 ‘The Devil's Double was the title of the Triangle feature, with William S. Hart in the leading role. The Key- stone comedy film was The Lion and the Girl. % % % - December 24, 1912 ......... Officer Jacob Vetter, for over 35 years a member of the local police department and one of the best known members of the force, was on Modday night, at his own request, placed on tne retired list by vote of the court of common council at the regular January meet-- ing in the council chamber. Officer Vetter's retirement dates from Jan. 1 and he will receive $41.82 monthly from that date. The vacancy caused by the placing of Officer Vetter on the retired | list was filled by the appointment of Supernumerary Bernard Keenan as a member of the reguiar force, his ap- pointment to date from Jan. 1. This appointment left a vacancy on the su- pernumerary list, and to fill this va- cancy Abraham Seigal was made a supernumerary. The meeting was called to order at .25 o'clock by Mayor Allyn L. Brown. The minutes of the previous meeting were approved and the reading omit- ter. The first matter to be taken up was the Thames street hearing. Clerk Arthur G. Crowell read the sheriff's return and the hearing was then de- clared open by Mayor Brown. Speaking for Laura S. Leach, James C. Leach said she did not care to lose any of the land and Mr. Leach ratsed a question as to what change is to be made in the grade. Shepard B. Palmer, city engineer, said thai there is no material change of grade con- templated. E. G. Willey raised the question as to whether it would be practical to change the grade. Mayor Brown said he had a copy of the blue prints pre- pared bv the engineers and welcomed inspection of the plans. There were no others to be heard and the hearing was declared closed. The resolutions were then adopted as follows: Resolved, That public necessity and convenience require that Thames street be widened by fixing new_ street lines on the westerly and ehsterly sides thereof. Resolved, That the land befween the new westerly line of said street and the present westerly line of said street at that place and between the new easterly line of said street and the present easterly line thereof at that rlace be, and hereby is, laid out as and made a parc of said Thames street, the damages thereby sustained by any person or persons to be paid out of the treasury of the city of Norwich.

Councilman Worth asked for a re- port from thé special committee ap- pointed to consider the need of a freight house on Shetucket street, the freight house to be established by the Shore Line Electric company. The committee was appointed to consider the matter on petition of wholesale dealers who ship. by trolley express, and they have had the matter under consideration since. Alderban Dol- beare, chairman of the committee, said that in the committee’s opinion this was a matter for a civic organization like the Chamber of Commerce to take up rather than the common council He said that the committee had not ir terviewed any of the Shore Line of- ficials in regard to the matter, but that It it was desired they would do so. Councilman Worth said that he was present at a meeting of the Chamber o. Commerce when the matter was taken up for discussion, but that ap- parently nothing had been accomplish- ed, and after waiting for some time he thought it proper to bring the mat- ter to the attention of the council. A petition signed by Elizabeth R. Huntington and J. P. Huntington ask- ing for the removal of ar old tree in front of their property at Broadway was referred to warden with power.

I.OSG WAS SMALL FOR LAST YEAR | Norwich Citizens Are Taking Fire Prevention More Seriously Than in the Past. . FIRE There were 152 alarms of fire with @ loss of $7155.93 in this city during the year 1916, according to the report of Fire Chief Howard L. Stanton of the local department which has been sent to the national board of fire un- derwriters. This report of losses is the smallest ever in the history of the local fira department and is attributed by Chief Stanton to the fact that the.citizens are taking measures towards fire pre- vention. The insurance loss was $6805.93, leaving a balance of $350 uninsured. The losses suffered in buildings was $4687.04 and in coptents $2118.89, and the amount involvéd in the fires was $139,374.60, a very unusual amount on account of the ~exceptionally small number of fires. In_ addition to the $250,000,000 suf- fered by fire losses in a year in the country a like amount is expended in maintaining fire departments in the country. This should instill a desire into the minds of the general public that fire prevention is the matter to be studied rather than the matter of fighting_fires. In July last vear there was no fire loss on either buildings or contents. For the preceding four years the losses in insured and uninsured prop- erty reported for the calendar year were as follows: 1915 $43,414.23; 1914 $33,609.31; 1913 $53,260.81; 1912 $142 422.03. During December there were but 14 calls for the local department and but $18 was paid. .
