In January he had advanced to the rating of sergeant and then entered an offi- cers’ training school at Camp Devens.

To Decide Matter of Better Water Supply. date for a special city meeting at which time the matter of appropriat- ing $75,000 for the comstruction of a& 18-inch water main_line from pumping station to Church street wlll come up for the voters to decide. The people of the city remember the experience of last winter, when there was euch a shortage of water for weeks as to keep Putnam face to face with a fire hazard that was almost ex- treme. Conditions are better now, but officials who have investigated the city's negds as to water supply are almost a unit in agreeing that the situation here is such that something should be done to remedy conditions as they have been.

Conductor and engine man receiv- ing this card properly filled out and signed by the signal man may pro- ceed with the train under control pre- pared to stop short of any obstruction in the block. That the block referred to in_the caution card extends from Williflantic to Putnam. That as said trains were passing through Pomfret they were met by a freight train known as B. A. 3 running westerly on the west bound track. That the engineer of said train B. A. 3 on ob- serving that said two trains running easterly were running so near togeth- er that a collision seemed imminent, gave the usual warning signal with his_whistle. That the conductor on said train running westerly also ob- serving that a collision between said two trains appeared to be inevitable gave the rear train a stop signal with his lantern and which was answered by a lighted match or flash light. That the rear end of the forward train ex- tra 3200 was properly protected by the usual signals and that the head lights on both engines of the rear train A. P, 4 were lightsd and burning at the time of the collision. That the said train extra 3200 had made two short stops soon after leaving Willimantic near North Windham on aceount of trouble with the automatic. stoker and was running at so low jrate of speed that fuses should have been dropped by the flagman from the rear cf the train or some other cautionary signal given. I therefore find that all said de- ceased died at sald Pomfret on said 10th day of April 1918 from injuries received in said rear end collision be- tween sald two freight trains ds here- inbefore stated, and that said deaths were all caused by the criminal care- lcssness of Herbert N.

Thompson of Sarosota, Fla., is visiting at Pomfret with his Clearing Up Wreck. The undersigned, Coroner within and for the County of Windham, hav. ing received notice that John J. Sul livan had been killed in Pomfret on the 10th day of April 1913, about six o'clock p. mi, and that his body had been taken to the undertaking rooms of L. B. Smith in Putnam, Conn, 1 viewed the body of said deceased at ;|said undertaking rooms the following morning and held an inquest as.to the ]cause and manner of death of said John J. Sullivan at my office in Dan- elson, Conn., on the 26th day of April 1918 at tem o'clock in the forenoon. From the testimony taken at said Sullivan was engaged as a laborer in clearing away the wreckage caused by the collision of two freight trains in just north of Pomfret Station in the town of Pomfret on the 10th day of April, 1918, and while so engaged his head was caught between a large boulder on the eide of the mflroi\d track and a large steel coal car ‘which was being lowered by a der- rick, fracturing his skull and causing nstant death, ; Said John J. Sullivan with another laborer had been placing tiés under the car which was to be lowered by all sald deaths weré causéd by the derrick. After said ties had been placed in position the wrecking mas- ter inquired if all was clear, and hav- ing received a reply from some person . |standing on the opposite of the car that all was clear, but who evidently had not.taken the precaution to eee that Sullivan had come out from un- der the car and who had no authority to make such a ‘reply, he gave the signal for the car to be lowered, caus- ing the death of said Sullivan. 1 therefore find that said John J. r | Sullivan died at Pomfret on the 10th -|day of April 1918 from a fractured skull caused by his head being caught as hereinbefore stated and that 'hm death was due to the criminal inquest T find that the said John J.| brother, Judge Charles O.

Judging from the countless prepara- tions and treatments which are con- ng ugly hollows and angles by the BT kvl iinos ot haatth sog beauty, there are evidently thousands of men and women who keenly feel their ex- cessive thinness. Thinness and weakness are usually due to starved nerves. Our bodies need more phosphate_than is contained .in modern foods. Physicians claim there is nothing that will supply this defi- clency so well as the organic phosphate known among druggists as bitro-phos- phate, which is {nexpensive and is sold & Osgood and most all drug- gt ut‘) under a guarantee of satisfaction ey back. By feeding the nerves dlreeuy and by supplying the body cells with the necessary phosphoric food elements. bitro-phosphate quickly produces a weélcome transformation in the appearance, the Increase in weight frequently being astonishing. This increase in weight also carries with it a general improvement in the health. Nervousness, sleeplessness and lack of energy. which nearly always accompany excessive | thinness disappear, dull eyes become bright, and pale cheeks glow with the bloom of perfect health AUTION: Although _bitro-phos- phate is unsurpassed - for relieving nervousness, sleeplessness and general weakness, it should not, owing to its remarkable flesh-growing _properties, be used by anyone who does not desire to put on flesh. students of the college, to Camp Plattsburgh.
