Stewart, who found for the town and gave a verdict for $100 damages and costs. Town Counsel H. H. Pettis appeared for the town while Joseph T. Fanning and John H. Barnes were counsel for Mr. Moran. They put in no corroboratory evidence for the defense in suppert of Mr. Mo- ran’s claim that he owned the barn. After the town had bought the Asylum street farm property. Mr. Mo- ran put in a_claim to First Select- man Casper K. Bailey that he owned the .barn on it sa: that he had ously from the Plainfield L.and com- pany. but had never removed it. He asked Mr. Bailer’s permission to re- move it then, but the first selectman told him the town had bought the land with all that was on it and he should certainly not let the barn go. Some days “later Superintendent Chapman of the almshouse - notified Selectman Bailey that workmen had | arrived at the barn and were prepar- ing to mave it off the lot. The se- {lectman arrived on the sceme in a hur- |ry and found the men were working for Mr. Moran. He ordered them to stop and told Mr. Moran to keen off |the property. but it was not many |days later when the superintendent |of the almshouse again - telephoned Mr. Bailey that r. Moran was at Wwork on the barn with a gang of men. | They had some of the stone founda- {tions and underpinning removed by the time Mr. Bailey got there. This| time the selectman made a police court case of it and later brought the suit to recover for the damage that | | had been dome in the attempt to move LAST MINUTE VOTERS CARRIED SUNDAY MOVIES Acting on what is gaid to be one of | |the cardinal precepts of Marshal! och. that the army with the last {punch will win the battle. won the pecial city meeting Wed- | nesday night for those who wanted to have Sunday movies here. For it was reserves rushed in at the last mi the meeting. When the crowd began t file |the ballot box to cast in their “Y fand “No” hallots, the flood of |ballots in the first half hour of voting | was ‘so vronounced that it looked like a Waterloo for the advocates of Sun- | day movies. Some of the leaders on [the “Yes” side were about ready to |admit defeat but others started out to, drum up the reserves, combing the| | streets and other places near to the | i movies. Their work was ef- . too, for during the last 20 minutes of the meeting there was a gradua! infifTation movement from {the hallway into the main hall and | pradtically all of the late voters cast “Yes” ballots. 1t was enough to overturn the evi- dent majority TRAT the other side held at the start. The great marshal's the- ory. proved a winner in.the Norwich Sunday movie fight just as it had on the fields of France. - |AUTO LOSES FRONT WHEEL IN CRASH AT MOHEGAN The Dedge touring car owned by {C.

Praduction of Grindstenes and Pulp- stones in 1918 To the man in the street the manu- facture of grindstonies and pulpstones seems to have little connection with war actiities. During 1918, however, this industry contributed alimost its! entire output directly or indirectly to the prosecution of “the war, This OuIpUL Was used in the ‘manufacture of cutlery, hardware, and toels, which were themselyes used “either directly as war material or in_the fanufacture of war materials. -Large numbers of gridstanes were also used for dress- iing and sharpening toels in the in- dustrial plants that made the host of articles required by military. opera- tions. The manufacture of pulp- stones, which is closely related to that of grindstones, is less patently connected with the prosecution of the war, but as pulpstones are used in the.'preparation of wood pulp, and as an adequate supply of pulp and paper ‘was _highly important, the pulpstone industry may also be regarded as hdving cantributed /its 'bit 'by main- taining 'and increasig its velume of| business. | | ."According to the fgures compiled from reports of producers to the .Unit- ed States Geoldgical Survey, Depart- which was' given them by their broth- er officers on the Park City force for the success with which they conducted the recent annual convention of the police association of the state Reld in | cent. in quantity and of $455,706, or the |56 per cent.i in ‘value. la gain of 2,122 s These officers were committee of arrangements Joseph Coughlin, Serg!
