Commander Waltér F. Jacobs, U. S. N., is included in a list of naval offi- cers recommended by Josephus Dan- fels, secretary of the navy. for dec- aration with distinguished service medals. Commander Jacobs, now of the United States naval war college at Newport, is the son of Hon. and Mrs. Frederick A. Jacobs of Danielson, and only recently returned from overseas after months of highly perilous ser- vice in clearing .the North sea of mines. L] Relative to the awards, a press des- patch says: In his letter to Chairman page, the secretary of the navy says this list of citations and decorations was not act- ed upon by the board of awards. “The majority of the officers and men in the attached list,” Mr. Daniels informed Senator Page, “as you will note from the citations, were those en- gazed in minesweeping in the North sea, and their work was not completea at the time the board of awards ad- jowrned. I consider this service as ex- ceptionally meritorious, and one of the most hazardous in which any of our forces were engaged during the war, end it appeared to me that a just rec- ognition was due those engaged in this work. The atfached list, marked B, were awarded the navy cross for ex- ceptionally meritorious and distin- guished service in a position of great responsibility as commanding officers of the mine sweepers and submarine chagers in the exacting and hazardous service of ridding the North sea of mines.” 3 The seven officers who have been awarded distinguished service medals, named in L% additional list ‘of dec- orations. are: Beck, Williamr L., commander.

Commander Jacobs was the com- manding officer of a Al on of the minesweeping fleet and personal in charge of the Elder, flagship of the first division. In navaj circles the work performed by the mine sweepers Is réearded as among the most laudable of the forces efisat during and after the war. The danger was ertreme and the officers and men of the sweeners were en- gaged in their task for months. Over in the town ‘of Brooklyn the asessors, when information that they are seeking is denied them, go after it on their own account. A case in point is that of the Crysiai Water company, the concern whose reservoirs are with- in’ the town of Killingly and from which the supply for the borough of Danielson and a part of the West Side In_East Brooklyn is obtained, Recently assessors of Brooklyn, en- ged in making a general revaluation of property in their town, in accord with a state law, inquired of a refire- sentative of the Crystal Water com- pany. what the eompany’s income is annually from the service is furnishes to its subscribers in that town. One of these assessors stated ou Thursday that he did not get the information he was after as the result of the inter- view with the water company repre- gentative, so he said nothing at the time, but an idea formulated in his mind. That idea Wwas te make a canvass of the West ‘Side and wvisit every place that buys service fgom the Crystal Water cempany, ascertain how much eac hsybscriber s . the company each year and thereby arrive atthe eompany’s me in that seetion of the town of rooklyn each year.

Fred Carpenter were at Willimantic Thursday to attend a session of the superior court. James E. York, a bellboy at the Hotel Warren, in Worcester, former- ly at the Putnam inn as an employe, was arraigned before Deputy Judege Archibald Macdonald, Jr., in the city court and pleaded guilty to having driven, without permission, an au- tomobile that was stgred in the ga- rage at the Putnam inn. Judge Mac- donald fined York $50 and costs and imposed a sentence of three ‘months in jail, suspending 'execution of the sentence and- giving him time in which to pay the fine. York hdd driv- en the car, which belongs to a Good- year man, several times during the past few weeks. York is 19.

Announcements are being received by a number of Putnam citizens o the annual banquet of the Connecti- cut McKinley association to be held at Stueck’s tavern, Middletown, on the evening of January 27. This week marks tNe passing of one of Putnam’s most respected organ- izations—A. G. Warner post, G. A. R.. which has surrendered its charter and gone out of existence. The gradual reduction of membership of the post through deaths and removals from the city ind the steadily advancing age and feebleness of the veterns who fought in the great war for freedom made necessary the'taking of a sten that is a cause of real regret to all the small group of brave men who re- main here and who wore the blue dur- ing the stirring days of the Civil war. i Wt For the past year or more the. vet- erans have heen meeting at the home of Deputy eriff Georee F. Holbrook, but there has been difficulty in get- ting a quorum at times and it was fin- ally thought best to take the step— surrendering the charter—that marks the final diésolution of the post. The years that have swepjt on since the days when the few veterans who remain here came back from the war have been marked by many happen- ——————— have fairly accurate information.on that particular subject, and it is sug- gested that the assessment against the company, insofar as Brooklyn is con- icerned, will be made accordingly. Employes of the Shere Line Electric Railway - company hauled the closed car that does service between Moosup and Central Village across the steam road tracks at that place Thursday morning and brought it north to Day- ville to nundergo an overhauling. An- other car was run across thed steam road tracks to replace the one that is to undergo repairs, Thursday morning the icshouses of the Quinebaug Lake Ice company at Quinebaug lake were aboyt half filled with ice, and the force of men that has been laboritig there since Monday was steadily at work rushing more of the fine ice that is being stored -into the heuses.
