These twe trees, oné a ted oak and the other a white oak, were on the property of Jonathan Starr at 171 Broadway, in the Tear of his residence. In years gome by there was a fow of these oaks extending alowg the high em- bankment in the rear of the old Jenathan Trumbu 1 property and the properties ad- joining. As years passed, the number grew lss until only two remaiféd. These fell prey 10 old age and became a menace to the houses at the fopt of the bank on Che: nut street. Mr. Starr, reglizing the dan- ger, had them rémoved. The work was doné under difficulties, as one of th§ trees leaned far out over the baak. Several of the tree experts mfiud the task until one was found recently who weuld take the cantragt, with the remis thet they are fast becoming firewosd.

Of course, there is nothing unusual to see a person car- rying an oil stove, but when the oil stove is burning and the carrier stops to warm his hands on it, then it beeomes a curi- osity. That is what this man was doing, and when asked about it he said that he was carrying it over to have it repaired and he thought that he might as well put it to good use while in transit FINE OF $100 GIVEN IN NORWICH POLICE COURT In the eity eourt Thursday morning, John Kozug of 461 North’ Main street. who was arrested Wednesday evening for having liquor in his pessession above the legal aleoholic centent, was fined $100 and costs, hy bill ‘amounting to $109.30, which he paid.
