Besides several EVENTS OF FIFTY YEARS AGD Npfikh Experiences Hottest Day of. Year and Several Prostrations Result—Pollard Boiler Shop Destroyed by Fire—School Street School Hquse Started. Fifty years ago Norwich was sweltering with the hottest weather of the summer of ’68 with the mercury around the century mark. Work was started on the School street schooll house and a law was passed prohibiting the taking of oysters from the Thames except at certain seasons. There were two sudden deaths in one day, at least one of which was dué to the heat. A Colchester man was prostrated with the heat. The Pollard boiler shop at Thamesville was destroyed by fire set by a train. The annual contest among the Academy boys for the Newton- Perkins prize medal for declamation was held. Extracts from The Bulletin files of ’68 follow: Hottest Day of Year. July. 13, 1868:—The hottest day of the summer was Sunday. The ther- mometer ranged from 102 degrees to 104 degrees in the shade through the day and for some time after sunset marked nearly 100 degrees. The crop of grass to be cut in New London and Windham counties will be unusually large. But little was done last week on account of the cloudy weather but this week if the sun shines a very large amount will be secured. July 14:—The School street school house is being removed and blasting operations preparatory to laying the foundation for the new house. The House Monday passed a law prohibiting the taking of oysters from the Thames except between the first of November and the first of March. Died of Sunstroke. A young woman named Jane Loony employed as a servant at the home of Capt. Henry Phillips on Roath Ave- nue died suddenly Monday morning it is supposed from the effect of sun- stroke. A woman named Catherine O’Connell from Providence was taken suddenly ill Monday morning at the house of Jobn Shugrue on the West Side and died in a short time. July 15:—A large number of letters from members of the New York Seventh Regiment have en received at this office since thei nearly all of which speak in hearty | and enthusiastic languase of the trip and all its incident: The various re- ports published in New York papers confirm the suspicion en ined here that the boys enjoyed their visit. Beef Lower in Price. Beef is lower in price than it has been for the past few weeks. Cherries are scarce but currants are now be- coming plentiful. Pineapples and strawberries are also scarce. July 16:—In the Connecticut Senate vesterday the resolution” incorporating the Pachaug river railroad was passed. The road is to extend from Jewett City to Voluntown and will be about eight and one-half miles long. Henry Smith a laborer on the farm of Messrs. Peckham and Waterman of Bozrahville was eunstruck Monday morning ‘while in a field mowing. He was carried to the house and was immediately taken with spasms. It took three men to hold him. Boiler Shop Burned to Ground. July 17:—About two o'clock Thurs- day afternoon the roof of the Pollard’s boiler shop at Thamesville was found to be on fire, and as the building was of wood the flames spread rapidly and in a short time nothing was left of it save the chimney and a few supports. No‘general alarm was given and the occurence wos not known in the city until the building was almost destroy- ed. The loss by the fire cannot now be estimated as some of the ma- chinery was soid, The aggregate in- surance was $8,000 and it is thought the loss is something over that sum. 1t is supposed that the fire was caused by sparks from the engine of the 1.30 train as the fire was first noticed on the side of the roof nearest the track. The trotting a: the Fairgrounds Thursday between “Mack” owned by, W. T. Rawson of this city and “Tom Jones” owned by A. Abrams of New York was witnessed by a large crowd.

The patriotic citizens of the state are once more called upon to show their patriotism. The farmers in all sections of the state are urgently feel- ing the labor shortage and conse- quently there is a pinch on the pro- duction and haryesting of farm prod- ucts. To offset the big labor shortage, all able bodied citizens are asked to enroll as willing to do farm work during the season of 1918. There are enrollment cards and all necessary in- formation will be given at the rooms of the New London County Improve- ment league, Rooms 211 and 212, Thayer building. Last year crops in the vicinity were lost after brought to harvest by labor shortage. To allevi- ate such risks, it has been considered best to take an enroliment of emer- gency workers who will be willing to do a certain amount of work for a very few weeks if an emergency shall arise. It is the sole object at present to secure the names of people who will undertake to fill in at such an emergency, 1t will be arranged so that the worker may secure compen- sation at regular farm work rates if desired. If a person wishes to work, he may do so and arrange to have his earnings given to the Red Cross. A person may enroll for a continuous period, for any number of days-a week, for mornings or afternoons, or for any part of a morning or after- noon. Clerks or factory employes who get certain afternoons off may enroll for vacant afternoons if'so desired. The Improvement league is in constant touch with all the farmers of this sec- tion and can render a valuable ser- vice to the farmers as well as to the volunteer farm workers, provided there is a generous support to the move- ment. The greatest service will be rendered by registering at once. PIGS IN COUNTY ARE DOING WELL County Pig Clubs Visited by Assistant County Agent. During the last week Assistant County Agent R. J.
