DANIELI®N l Agent D, F. O'Connell, of the New Ha- Yen road, announced that the Western Union Telegraph company has resiored to Daniolson the service that was discon- tinned some weeks ago. The service is how being maintained here for the re- ceipt and transmission of messages under the same arrangement that prevailed for many years prior to the change that broyght forth so many protests from the manufacturing concerns, business men and individuals. Interests that use the service are delighted over the restoration of the arangement under which a mess- age may be received here direct instead of being transmitted over the telephone from Putnam.

Armington was at the state armory Thursday evening o talk with proepective recruits relative to en- listment jn the new supply company of the mobile artillery regiment to be form- ed in Danlelson. "Captain Armington is to be at the armory again this evening. In addition to the ten emlistments an- nounced previously as having been ob- tained some more have come in. During the coming week it is hoped to obtain many new enlistments. Captaim Arm- ington has been informed that the maxi- mum number of men to be enlisted in the new company js 65, so the cnthmsiasts have their best chance mow of getting in before the company fs filled. Aanouncéments . of the marriage of Miss Bessie D. Westcott and Robert N. Griswold have been received this Week from Salt Lake City. The ceremony was jperformed at St. Mark’s Bpiscopal church in that eity by Rev. Mr. Fletwood. The groom is a native of Hartford, Conn.; and a graduate of Yale, class of '09. He was engaged in government work zlong -insurance lines during the World war and at present is an actuary and secretary for the Inter-mountain In- surance company at Sak Lake City. The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Westcott of Wauregan wWhere she spent her early years.

Carpenter of Willimantic will Address the meetings. Mrs. C. Alton Frost is to sing at each evening’s service: It was stated Thur: day that delegations are expected on di ferent evenings from churches in. Put- nam, East Killingly and other places. Next Sunday an attendance contest is to be inaugurated in the Sunday scheol. Team captains will be selected at that time. 1t has been agreed that the losing side shall meet the cost of banqueting @ll of those who participate in the con- test, which is expected to be very spirit- ( ed. Stockholders and hundreds of employes here of the Goodyear interests are well pleased over the announcement that the Morgan-] ont interests have agreed to finance thé Goodyear Tire and Rubber cmpany. This is taken as meaning that the financial troubles of this great rub- ber compacy are practically at an end and that the Goodyear industries will be} booming again within a short time. The press announcements relative to the entrance of the Morgan-DuPont in- terests in such a large way into the af- fairs of the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company indicate that the DuPonts will liquidate their interests in the Duniop Tire company for which a tremendous new plant had been erected at Buffalo, where several millions of dollars had been jnvested to boost that tire. 3 As the DuPont interests control the General Motors corporation, makers of several well known makes of automobiles it would appear that Goodyear will na- turally be proferred when it comes to placing orders for tires for the General Motors products. This in itself will pro- vide a tremendous outlet for new tires aside from the sales direct to the trade. A meeting of the stockholders of the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company -is scheduled to be held in Akron, today (Friday) and 1t was said here on Thurs- day that a statement relative to future plans may be expected, following this meeting. The Morgan-DuPont interests are so powerful financially that it appears that Goodyear will be able to go forward now with the tremenlious business that has been awaiting the readjustment that has been practically consummated. In the resumption of operations gn an increased scale that is looked for at the parent plants in Akron in the near future lingly is expected to share, as increased production means more e+fabric used, and much of this fabric comes Gioodyear and Connecticut Mil town. It will naturally take ti the business running to cavacity again, but the happy results of the refinancing program are bound to make themselves agreeably felt here in the near future. The prosperity of the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company is a most import- ant asset to business interests not only in the town of Killingly but as well in P‘:,:l‘m. Practically everyene in the two toWns has benefited directly or indirec ly from the tremendous business done by the big rubber company. The Manhasset | Manufacturing company, Putnam's most important single industry, was a big source ‘of fabric for Goodvear as were the two mills mentioned in Killingly. Stories are comstantly coming in from territory hereabouts relative to the theft of poultry. The thieves are-daring in their operations and are stealing in such quantities that it is indicated their ac- tivities are not so much to supply food for thamselves as to get poultry for sale, probably in Providence. Some method is. MOTION THAT BRINES CASE BE TAKEN FROM JURY Philadelphia, Jan. 27.—Willlam P. Brines, the University of Pennsylvania sophomore on trial charged with having killed Elmer C. Drewes, a Dartmouth college senior, was the author of the mysterious letter signed “Samuel Magee” which, it is contended, lured Drewes to his death, in the ovinion of two hand- writing exnerts who tesfified today. Comparing specimens of the defend- ant’s handwriting on three university ex- aminatién papers and twe applications for automobile licenses, the expert said it was the same as that in the “Magee” letter, which was sent from Reading, Pa., to Drewers at Dartmouth cellege, Hanover, N. H., and which . contained an offer to him an automobile. The bullet which killed Drewes was “almost certainly” fired from the pistol found in a deserted automobile alleged to belong to Brines. Dr. William C. Wadsworth, coroner’s physiciin, testified. The stain found en the door of the automobile was declafed to have been human blood by Dr. John Albert Kolmer, “True Thrift Lies Dollar Do The cold weather is here and Blankets and Comforts now as we firmly believe they will not be cheaper. $ 4.00 BLANKETS . $ 6.00 BLANKETS . $ 6.50 BLANKETS . $ 8.00 BLANKETS .. $ 9.00 BLANKETS ..... $11.00, $11.50 and $12.00 $13.50 BLANKETS ...... $15.00 BLANKETS ...... $19.50 BLANKETS ...... $ 3.00 COMFORTABLES $ 3.75 COMFORTABLES $ 5.50 COMFORTABLES $ 6.25 COMFORTABLES $ 8.25 COMFORTABLES $ 8.75 COMFORTABLES $16.50 COMFORTABLES $ 8.00 2-IN-1 COMFORTS .... $ 8.50 BEACON COMFORTS . $ 6.50 ESMOND COMFORTS .........

An alarm brought out a chemical eom- peny, which quickly had the fine under control and extinguished béfore damage of any greater amount was done. In the meantime the fire was racing through the dried grass and making ite way toward the cemetery and South Main street. 1t caused no more real damage, however, before it was completely extin- guished. During the course of the fire grass blazed around the property of Byron D. Bugbee and threatened to envelope & small outbuilding in flame. This pros- pect was averted, though. and the Bug- bee property suffered no damage. A gain of over $400,000 in the assess- ed valuation of property in the town of Putnam i8 noted in the grand list of $6,574,718 compiled by the: agSessors. This is the gress amount and is subject ex- emptions of nen-taxable property to the amount of $566,300. 3 The valuation includes 1186 dwelling houses, 299 horses, 638 head of eattle and €70 automobiles. It is noted that the number of automobiles owned in town has increased from €0 six years ago to 670 this year. There is special Anterest In Potnam in the fact thst Aitormey Arthur 1.

Boynton Merrill, who was eper- ated on Tuesday for appendicitis at the Day Kimbail hospital was reported on Thursday as resting comfortably. The operation was entirely successful and rapid recovery 'is enticipated. Moderating weather caused the icemen to get a hustle on and make a vigorous effort on Thursday to complete the wors o fharvesting the ice crop. Hundreds of ftons o fice bad been stored in Putnam prior to Thursday, but many more tons were needed at that time to meet the city’s demande during the warm weather period. Nothing hag developed relative to the| recent break ‘at the Charles F. Swain place at Pomfret street. It Is believed that the thieves that made the raid were chiefly” concerned in getting warm cloth- ing to protect them fro mthe bitternees of the weather of the past few days, at least this is indicated by what was taken and the fact that the house was not ransacked.
