ASSESSORS ARE PREPARING TO RECEIVE TAX LISTS When the Norwich assessors sit this vear, beginning Oct .4, to Teceive the Teturns made by property owners of their tax lists, those having charge of prop- erty which is exempt from taxation will be required to hand in lists. Every four years it is required that lists of exempt Property must be handed in as well as lists of taxable property and this is the year to do so. Last year the Norwich assessors tried the plan of having evening hours on some days of the week in order to accommod- ate property owners who might not be able to get around in the day time. Although only a very small number of taxpayers took advantage of these even- ing hours, the assesors will put them into effect again this year, having selected Wednesday and Saturday evenings from 7 to 9 each week until the first of No- vember.

L The general subject of the conference, which will extend over a three day period, is the mission of the church, and the purpose is three-ofldi— first to give a clear idea of the need of the church in non-Christian lands; sec- ond, to show the laity in what way the church is fulfilling that need, and third, to show the responsibility which every in- dividual has in spreading farther the church's mission. The meeting was conducted by the Rt. Rev. Chauncey B. Brewster, bishop of Connecticut.

NOT T0 BUILD IN CITY ———— 28, 1921 ) mill has operated machinery there but the building is now standing idle. Next east cf this is a story and a half brick building now occupied by a junk busi- ness and farther east is the former Fox property running to the corner of Frank- lin street and now occupied by automo- bile salesrooms and service station. A small building to the west and fronting on Franklin street is included in the plot as well as what was the former Han- nis_property next west. Plans and specifications for a build- ing were prepared at one time for an addition to the velvet mill cn this site, it is understood, and figures showed that its approximate cost would have been half a million dollars. It will be with much regret that the business interests of the town learn that the velvet mill addition is not to be built on Willow street, as it had been a live- 1y hope in the community that the vel- vet mill would enlarge there and become even a more valuable contributor to the prosperity of the city and town, large as the mill's present importance in that respect is. TESTIFY TO HIGH SPEED HUMPHREY CAR WAS MAKING Six witnesses testified in the Water- ford town court Mbnday aftermoon to the high speed at which Charles H. Humphrey of New London was driving his car on the Waterford turnpike on July 28th last when the car uoset and John E. Cairns of New London was in- stantly killed and Humphrey was se- verely injured. Humphrey was given a hearing Mon- day before Justice of the Peace Joha A. Walkér who found probabls cause for binding Humphrey over to the Jan- uary term of the criminal superior court on ti'e charge of neglizent opera- tion of the automobile that caused the death ot Cairns. Bonds were placed $1500 which were furnishel by Patrick L. Shea of New London. At the hearing, which was largely at_ tended, the accused, through his coun- sel, Attorney John C. Geary, entered a plea of not guilty. Special Prosecuicr Thomas E. Troland, acting for the state attorney, placed seven witnesses on the stand, and retained several others in reserve. After hearing the evidence that was presented the defendant and his attorney conferred and it was de- cided not to present any witnesses for the defense. Charles E. Beebe of Waterford, em- Dployed@ at the Shore Line Electrlc Co. powerhouse, about a mile from the sceme of the crash, testified that a short time before he heard of the affair. the car driven by Humphrey had vpassed the powerhouse, bound e:st at what he estimated to le about iles Per hour. Witness was crtain that the car was golng ‘aster 'han zny he had ever ridden fn. Miss Grace Hallock, employed in Hen- Arickson’s.. store; [three-quarters of a mile distant from the scsne of the fa- tal mishap, testifisd that when the Humphiey car passed the stors going east, she ectimated the sneed at ahout 55-60 1ntles per hour. ihe stated that the car disappeared from her view very quickly. ; Mrs. L. M. Wright, who “resides a short distance west of the scene, ac- cording to her tes‘imony, saw the Hum- phrey car rcar past her house at a very rapid rate of speed and a few seconds later heard the crash. Mrs. Beatrice Glorig, residing right at the scene, sald that she had a glance of the car through a window, but so fast did it travel, that she did not get a second view of It and said that it seemed as though the car had Just swept past the window when she heard the crash. Her son, John, nine years of age, told the court that he was walking along the road a short distance away from where the car turned over and that it was going very fast. There Were several other cars on the road. Suddenly came the grinding of brakes and the red Dupont skidded, ran onto the trolley tracks, hit a telephone pole and turned over. Witness said that when he first noticed the speed of the car he called to his mother to come to the window to see it speed by. Wilbur Walker, ten years of age, was sitting up in a tree only a few feet from where the car turned over. He corroborated In detall the statements made by young Glorigz. The boys, owing to thelr vouth, were, of course. unable to estimate the speed of the Humphrey car. State Policeman Frank 1. Vickery testified to being called into the case by the state attorney and of the results of his investigations. Measurements and drawings made by the witness at the scene of the crash, showing the dis- tance from where the brakes were first applied, to the pole and from the pole to the noint where the car overturned. were submitted by the officer, as well as measurements as to tha range of clear vision, etc., in the immediate vi- cinity. Humphrey, since the accldent, it is sald, ‘has claimed that he would have been able to extricate his high-powered Dupont car, which he was demonstrat- fng to Calrns, from its vrecarious po. sition between two automobfles gofng in ©Opposite directions. had he been per- mitted to handle tha car alone. Cairns, he claims, evidently thinking that col- lsion was imminent, suddenly reached over and pulled on the emergency brake. thereby causing the rear wheels to lock and the car to skid and overturn.
