AR One of his countrymen, a ‘stranger, called at the store of Peter Lupinags20, rocently and made purchases to the amount of $8.84. When making pay- ment for the goods the stranger said he had but a $5 bill in cash, and offered in payment a check on the Westerly branch of the Industrial company. Mr. Lupinaszo accepted the check and gave the stranger $24.76 in ¢hange, the dif- ference between the purchase and the amount of the check. Mr. Lupinazzo held the cheek for several days, and then gave it to a Norwich salesman, with an- other check and currency in payyment for a of goods. fie‘:eck ‘was deposited in a Nor- wich bank and by regulat order came to the Industrial Trust company. Here tt was quickly discovered that the check was of no value, and Mr. Lupinazzo was required to make good the amount. Mr. Lupianzzo has a good discription of the whan who defrauded him and sleuths are an the trail of the offender. Willard .

He says the fire started in the attic and burned rapidly. Much of the furniture was saved, but articles of value were burned. Miss Bowman was not in the house at ihe time the fire was diseovered and sub- Eiquently she told Mr. York she regret- ted he did not save two trunks that were in her hoom, as thelr contents were val- sed at £500. This room was locked, ac- cording to Mr. York, and the fire was burning so briskly that the fire fighters had no time to force an entrance. The parks from the burning dwelling set fire to the barn, and as Mr. York put it: *There is nothing left of the Grant farm but the land.” Theer was a report that the fire was of incendiary origin and town and county officials are to make an Investightion. The loss is not stated, but « mortgage of $3,900 indicates the val- uation. It is said the property is insured.

A large auto truck highly laden hit that sign in passing Saturday morning and the sign flattened on top of the load as the truck passed, and then for a time it kept up a penduium-like motion. It is possible for that sign to be struck in like manner at some other time and be torn from its fastening, and perhaps fall upon & pedestriag or t and cause injury that would form the basis for a lawsuit nkx‘ln:l hth« town.

A small quantity of the main mixture is led into. this chamber upon the starting of the motor. This small charge is heated by sparks from a spark-plug, and exploded into hot dry gas. This hot gas is then drawn into the manifold, where it heats and dries the main mixture from the carbureter. Heat when it is wanted most, when engine is cold at starting.
