Attorney Bill on Appeal Board. Governor Marcus H. Holcomb has desiznated Attornev Arthur G. Bill as fhe special representative in this ex- ‘mption district of Provost Marshall General E. Crowder, In accordance with a provision of the selective draft law, Attorney Bill to take such appeals as may be found necessary from rul- ings of the local exemption board, as to discharges, and to watch for frauds of any nature in comnection with the operation of the draft law. Such ap- pointments are being made throughout The countr: Mr. Bill may appeal to the district hoard on all cases of exemption based upon the fact that those who are ex- cmpted have dependants. Mr. Bill serves in this office without compensation. SURPRISED SECOND CALL A Number Unprepared for It—V ing at Distant Points—Married Man | Speeds After Wife. The second call of the exemption board in this district for more men to take the physical examination came unexpectedly, it is now apparent, to a considerable number of men who are called and there was much Scurrying about Tuesday to get in touch with | men who are away on vacation or business trips, that they may be able to return here in time to answer the call for the physical examination. Sev- eral men who are called and who are residents of this town are in Canada. Some of these may have difficulty zetting out of the Dominion, es- pecially those who have never taken out their citizenship papers in this country. Tuesday telegrams were being sent by relatives to these men, advising them of the time of the call and to return at _once. As all avenues of departure from Canada for the United | States are dow closely watched by | Britsh immigration authorities, the men who are not American citizens will be up against it unless they con- vince the representatives of the Do- minion government that they are re- turning here to take their physical ex- aminations. Two local men, citizens, who were coming out of Canada Friday morning of last week, found themselves in the official quizz line and had to talk pretiy stronz before they were allow- ed_to proceed on their journey. Exemption boards are powerless to aliens who are refused permis- to return, the only course left open to them being to certify those who fail to appear as ordered as qual- ified for military service and add them to_this district’s quota. The new order of the war depart- ment ordering all married men who have been found phwsically fit, but who have claimed exemption, to ap- pear before the board to further sub- stantiate the claims op which they hope to be exempted was causing a flurry here Tuesday. Hurried effort for additional supporting evidence was being made. One man who wanted his_wife to testify in his behalf, as to their financial circumstances, ' could not reach her where she was visiting in a distant New England city, so hired a machine and made an all- night trip to get her and return here for Tuesday afternoon. CORONER'S INVESTIGATION Completed Tuesday—Newport, Killed by Trelley Car, Was Intoxicated. Coroner A. G. Bill completed his in- estization of tha death of Henry Her- hert Newport,” who was killed by a trolley car, near Plainfield, Sunday night. % Coroner Bill found that Newport had Deen drinking and that the man was intoxicated when he went on to the track where he was to meet his death. Mr. Bill_located a brother of New- port’s in Providence, where the dead man has been living for some time. The body remained during Tues- day at the undertaking rooms of Louis E. Kennedy.

The names of 26 men who had ciaimed exemption were added to the roll that will make up the quota of men from this district, when the ex- emption board met Tuesday in the superior court library to hold hearings on the claims as = presented. This brings the number of men £o0 far ob- tained for the quota up to a total of 73 of the 131 that will be required. The district’s quota is 119, but the war department has ordered that 110 per cent. of the quota be secured, in or- der to allow for possible rejections by federal inspection officials. Those who claimed exemptions that were not allowed, the men being pass- ed Tuesday by the board and added to the quota are: Alvin Martin, Pui nam; Armand Lizotte, Putnam; Moses Lussier, Putnam: Harry C. Meinken, Putnam; Charles A. Ryan, Putnam William Batchard, Putnam: Ernest Tetreault, Putnam: Wilfred Archam- beault, Putnam: Pierre H. Myers, Put- nah; Willlam F. Penny, Putnam: Geo. T.

Claims Allowed, Those whose exemption claims were ailowed by the board Tuesday and who may be considered as conditionally dlscharged are: Bdward F. Girard, of Putnam: Marcel Kennette, Putnam; Philip Brouneau, Putnam: Joseph Ko- lat, Putnam; Armand Turenne, Put- nam; Armand Benoit. Putnam: An- toin ‘Michon, Putnam: Sidney P.

T. Waliers, Danielso Frederick J. Froehlich, Killingly; Jo- seph Brisson, Killingly Center. Only a Few Unmarried. The majority of those whose claims for exemption were disallowed Tues- day are married men; in fact, only a few are single men. In cach case the information filed with the board as a basis for the ex- emption clalm was used by the board for proceedinz with its line of inquiry, ich had to do with the income of the claimant, his circumstances in a general way and inquiry as to many sidelights on his domestic life as re- gards the ability of his dependents tq De sufficiently provided for during the period of the war. Each man was given a more or less extended ques- tioning to bring out facts for which the board was seeking. Each man whose claim was disallowed has, of course, the right to appeal to the dis- triet board. Many of the men who appeared on Tuesday brought their wives. Some of the wives were questioned by the board Today the board will resume its hearings on exemption claims and it is- expected that this work will be completed early this afternoon. Hamilton Will Appeal. Some of the men whose exemption claims were not allowed later stated that they would appeal. Among this imber is Kenneth Hamilton, of Dan- ieison, who, only a few weeks ago. was discharged from the Thirteenth company, C. A. C. Danielson, in which he was a_sergeant, because he was married. Under its instructions, however, the local board could not do other than pass him on Tuesday. His appeal will form one of the interest- ing cases developed by the draft in this section of the state, Mr. Hamilton did not ask for a discharge irom the Thirteenth com- pany, and now faces the difficult po- sition of being accepted for the new army with loss of his rating in the service. SEVENTH REJECTION But Attorney George B. Thayer Keeps Right on Trying. Attorney George B. Thayer, father Charles T. Thayer, Grove street, again has been rejected for the ser- vice in the army, this being his sev- enth rejection. Attorney Thayer is a veteran of the Civil war and a well known globe trotter. He is highly de- sirous of getting back into this ser- vice, notwithstanding his advancing years. The ruling against letting him in has come from the headquarters of the department of the Northeast. He has made seven attempts to get into the serviee, but his refection has come each time because he is 20 years over the ‘maximum age for the ser- vice. Recently he learned that a man who has served in the regular army or national guard could re-enlist in the service regardless of age, but the rule has not been made operative in Lis case. Mr. Thayer put the matter up to the recruiting officers of the First reg- iment, Hartford, and they referrea the case to headquarters of the depart- ment of the Northeast. The_ruling was that volunteers for the Spanish war who are now over 45 years of age will not be accepted for service. This ruling has finally barred Mr. Thayer. “This is surely splitting hairs,” said Mr. Thayer when he was inform- ed of the decision. Instructors’ Cl Two Instructors in the state trade school in this city, one instructor in the_Tourtellotte Memorial High school at North Grosvenordale are among the men whose exemption claims were dis- allowed by the exemption board here Tuesday. of s Disallowed. Burnes—Main, Miss Mary Main, 33, and William Burnes, 37, both of Worcester, were married here Tuesday by Aftorney Eric H. Johnson, acting as a Jjustice of the peace. Red Cross Box Forwarded. Four boxes of goods—hospital sup- plies and zarments were forwarded to the national headquarters of the or- ganization by the Putnam chapter of the Red Cross. Miss Mary Powers and Miss Regi- na Lambert, injured in an automo- bile accident at Wilsonville last Sun- day, remained at the Day Kimball hos- pital Tuesday and were rzported as resting comfortably. “Adopt a soldier’ is a slogan that is zoing to get attention in Putnam. Each Putnam boy with the colors should have someone fonstantly think- ing of him at home—and sending him a little remembrance regularly. The Feast of the Assumption will be observed with special masses at St. Mary's church this morning. Quota Will be Filled Soon.

The people in this prosperous littie mill village, with a population of only about two thousand, feel proud of the wonderful showinz of local men in this present crisis. Saturday, Staff Sergeant Edward Marriott rcturned to his home her after being absent for three vears spent on the battlefields of Belginm, France and Flanders. This battle-scarred veteran has been en- gaged in fourteen battles of this great war and has seen the horrors and havoc that this great contest has heen in leveling upon the people enzaged ‘this conflict. Fighting for humanity sake. he yemained uninjured until r cently when flying schrapnel struck his Jeg. He has been_at the Battle of the Marne, at the Somme and in other important engazements. Having been in active service for two and a half vears he was slightly wounded and returned to Canada, where he has been statloned for some time. He has been drill instructor for . some time and recently was transferred to the recruiting branch. He {s now home on a month’s fur- lough. A Last Friday evening he spoke at the ‘Washington club, New Bedford, and speaks tomorrow evening in the Squantum Stree: club.
