DANIELSON ANP PUTNAM NEWS DANIELSON Biftective next Sunday, there is to be a in the running time of passenger trains that make Danfelson stops. On and after that date north-bound trains will leave here at 5.59 a. m., 8.36 a. m. and m., the last north-bound train of the day. South<bound trains will leave here At 9.25 a. m.. 1.10 . m. and 6.51 P m. All of these trains will run ap- proximately an hour earlier than train: serving the local public under the present sthedule. € On Sunday tho early morning north-- bound train will leave here at .59 a. m. the same as on week days. Another north-hound train will leave hers at 5.03 P m. Bouthbound, the Sunday service: will provide a train at 9.25 a. m. and. the boat traln at 7.56 a little more than an heur later than_the last south-bound traiv on week and the time for so doing, to eseape an ex- tra assessment of one dollar, expires next Monday. Up to Tuesday afternoon only 125 dogs out of the 350 owned in the town, according to last year's figures, had been registered. The remaining days of th: week are expected to bring in a regis- tratior rush, however, this being accord- ing to experience of the past. Unregistered dogs are (o be sharply look- ed after this year. . Owners of them will face penalties that would make a regis- tration fee look cheap. No change will be made in the running time of trolley ears operating over the local division on account of the change in steam road time, it was stated by a resi- dent official of the Conecticut company. As the trolleys here operate on an hourly zchedule and the running time of the steam road trains are to be advanced about an hour, the two system will furnish such connections as are available on the same relative basis as at present. g The latest gossip in military circles in towns is that the members of the Danici- son service battery of the 192nd field ar- tillery may be sent to a camp in Georgia for thefr annual summer tcur of duty. This has not been verified, an order assigning the battery to Montauk Point still standing. Recruits receivd by the company dur- ing the past week and this week bring the membership to the full local quota of 70, in addition to the 31 bandsmen who belong to the Danielson battery, but are residents of New London. Five drills each month will be the rule until the battery leave for camp, on July days. Fire Warden C. 8. Hyde, of the town of Broklyn, has {ssued a warning against setting of brush or grass fires in that township, unless the gerson who does xo has a permit. Four fires have oceurred in Brooklyn during the past three weeks, and Mr. Hyde is anxious that the menace of such affalrs be removed. Permits may be obtainad of Mr. Hyde at Brooklyn village, of C. F. Rainvills of Bast Brooklyn, of Stephen Coffey of south- west Brooklyn. of John Myers 6f north- west Brooklyn. These men are deputy fire wardens and are authorized to issue permits. 1t was stated here Tuesday tat Albert 8.

It appears that Hart had attempted to back the horses around at a point near the river bank where he felt he had suf- ficlent Toom to execute the manoeuvre, but a wheel of the wagon went off the wall, allowing the whole outfit to slide over and into the river. which is deep at that point.

Horses and the wagon to which they were attached disappeared in the depths of the stream, from which they were later removed. The horses were fine animals and said to be valued at several | dollars. The accident was one of the most un- usual that has occurred in this city for a long time and attracted the attention of numbers of operatives of mills in the vieinity. Mr. Hart was taken to his home. It was stated that no untoward results are expected from the affair in which he figured. The following is taken from the New York Evening World of Tuesday: Cables from Paris today announce that a woman has appeared there claiming to be the first wife of Anastace Andreivitch Vonsiatsky-Vonsiatsky, the 23 year old Pole who created a sensation in New York, Philadelphia and Chicago society last February by marrying Mrs. Marion Buckingham Ream-Stephens, 45, daugh- ter of the late Norman B.

In a great many cities and towns clean-up week is an annual event, and in all these places its benefits ave been definitely proven, from the | standpoint of public health, fire preven- tion and general appearance. Local conditions seemed to compel the setting of May Sth to 13th as the date for Putnam’s Clean-up week, although it is f< that much of the work can be more easily donggat a somewhat earlier time. Thus many property owners have taken advantage of the few fair days re. centiy to rake over lawns, remove rub- bish heaps and scattered debrls, and to trim up the general appearance of their prem’ses. This work already done makes so much lighter the general task to be completed during the week of May. 8th to 13th. Several city officials have expressed their approval of the project and faver C: ete co-operation on the part of the city zovernment. It is expected that the | mill corporations will also do their part eby putting in trim mill grounds, tene- ments, etc, and the owners of public buildings are being especially appealed to for their interest and co-operation.

While there seems not the slightest hope of daylight saving being officially adopted by the city of Putnam, it is a fact that hundreds of operatives in plants of local manufacturing concerns would like to see these places on the “saving” basis of time.
