" PROVIDENCE - : BANIELSON Roseisu Back, father of Attorney' Harry E. Back, observed his =83rd birhday Wednesday. Mr. Back served as a member of the €onnecticut legis- lature in the sessions of 1891 and 1907, representing the town of Union. The funeral of Peter Kszeweda, 8, son of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Kszweda, was held from their home in Waure- gan, with services at Sacred Heart chyrch. Rev. J. C. Mathieu, the pas- tor, officiated. Burial was in the Sa- cred Heart cemetery. A. F. Wood was the funeral director. Mrs. E. H. Keach. will have . the members of the Civic Federation at her home for a meeting Friday aft- ernoon. ‘. Members of the Killingly Woman'’s club were interested Wednesday aft- ernoon in the address given at the assembly hall at the _high school building by Miss Lucy Wheelock, of Boston, - on the subjeet, “The Kinder- gartner.” Mrs. Abby Hopkins, operator at the telephone office, is ill at her home near Moosup. Approximately 20 appeals have been receivéd by the members of the board of relief of the town of Killingly, the largest number coming Monday of this week. All of the appeals will be care- fully investigated by the board. A Norwich truck. knocked over and damaged the silent cop that done duty near the junction of Main and Me, chanic streets, but the traffic guide was quickly repaired and put back in its position. The grip that has been attacking many Danielson people séemis o be subsiding. Many are confined to their homes by illness. but nonée are con- sidered as in dangerous condition. The improvement of Mrs. Charles Ray, Brooklyn, who has been a patient at the Day Kimball hospital for the past three weeks, is slow, but her re- covery is anticipated by her rela- tives and friends. Interviews with many taxpayers, whose assessments have been increas- ed, indicate that they will not greatly regret the advances made by the as- sessors if a ldwer tax rate is to be expected, and this now seems likely. Tt is probable that the improvement of the state highfay links between Hampton and Brookivn and between Danielson and Little Rest will proceed at the same time during the coming spring and summer, but months will be required to do the work that has been planned. Ice-covered stréets, deep with ruts, gave the automobilists a4 hard time of it mapaging their cars in Danielson on Wednesda Especially along streets through which the trolley line runs did the drivers of the motor \'Phirl?\ have their troubles when cafs came' along. In North Main street during the early afternoon four motor vehicles were in the ruts and could not get out [ when a trolley car came along until, after long effort, theyv managed ta crawl out and let the car pa Drivers desgcribe the condition of the streets due to the ice as the worst they have known. and the conditions exist all through this section. There much that can be done to relieve the condition. either, until the weather be- comes milder and a thaw of several day&"~duration sets in.

Calls sent out for nurses to other places brought fow satisfactory responses, for the services of the nurs* ez have heen as badly needed else- where as here. The report that new trolley cars are to be placed upon the local division at least gives encourazement that there is little present danger of abandon- ment of the service, about which so much has been said during the past vear. If new cars are to be sent here, | they will be appreciated by the travel- ing public, as the cars now in use are badly in need of general overhauling and repairs Arthur Walters, whose wife died a few days ago at their home on Barret Hill farm ‘in the town of Brooklyn, is to close out his interests here and re- turn tothe west. Mr. Walters was for a number of years in the United States army and saw active service in the Philippines. Records here show that there have been more real estate transactions in Killingly, and particularly Danielson, during the past twelve months than in any similar period for a number of vears. The chief selling has been of dwellings, many of which have chang- ed hands. A recent sale reported is that of a cottage dwelling on Acade- my street by Mrs. Eno Roberts to A ‘Weisberg,- who, with his family, has for yeéars occypied the home in ques- tion. .

A press des- patch sent out from Hartfcrd through a news agency'that serves many Con- state papens Wednesday and ' listed Putnam as having 33 new cases of in- fluenza. In proportion to the popula- tion of other cities included in the list and the number of neéw cases in each, ‘would@ appear from this despatch that Putnam is the worst afflicted of any Connecticut town of its size, It is true that many are ill here, but there is no certainty that all are ill with influenza, or what is this winter being called influenza. It is also true that fewer deaths are oeourring in Putnam and vicinity in two iweeks than occurred in single days during the real influenza epidemic in the fall of 1918 and {he early part of the win- ter of 1919. The fact is that Putnam’s people are no worse afflicted than are those of any other town in eastern Connecticut. Many who are ill are not seriously so, hut are remaining at home on the ad- vice of their physicians. The situation here, as regards public health, does not compare in any degree of seriousness ith the conditions that prevailed a little over a year ago, and it was be- ing pointed out Wednesday that there is not the slightest reason for alarm. State Automobile Inspector R. C. Young and Harry Luse, special agents of the Automobile Underwriters’ De- tective Bureau of New York, continued Wednesday their investigations along the lines that state officers have beén following here for several days rela- tive to cars that have been stolen from their - rigniul owners, brought into this territory and sold to 'unsus- pecting people who were in the market for machines. Each day’s inyestigation by the of- ficers has led to the discovery of much interesting information pertain- ing to this class of cars, which, it ap- pears, ha%e been unloaded wholesale in this part of eastern Connecticut during the past year. The investigators continue to locate cars on which iden- tification n'imbers have been obliter- ated and altered, and it seems strange indeed that someone of all of those who have come into possession of these cars has not noted the irregular- ity of the numbering and, in some cases. the patent fact that attempts had heen made to tamper with this, means of. positively following out the history of ownership of (each car. It pointed out, however, that very few automobile owners can tell off- hand the manufacturer's number of the car they are driving, even though they purchased the machine brand new, and there are many men who cannot tell you, without looking to assure themselves, just what the state registration number of their cars are. The investigations on Wednesday took the officials who are handling the case intée surrounding town. It is now believed that cars that in the past have been stolen will he located in Daniel- son, Pomfret, the Grosvenordales, Moosup and possibly other places in this section. Many cars that have heen handled in this city are now owned, of have been owned, in nearby towns and the search for them will not be stop- ped until each an devery one has heen raced ont and looked over. Tt may to complete the job. the course of the work the -of- Is have seized cars from Jocal men, each of whom had no suspicion that his car at sometime had been stolen. One of these a Cadillac, in con- nection with the sale of which Arthur Pepin, automobile dealer, was arrest- ed here, has been fraced as having ‘been sclen in New York ecity from Packard Automohile Bxchapge, Inc., on March 19, last. It came \nto this city from Massachusetts and the of- ficers would like to interview the man who brought it here.
