DANIELSON AND PUTNAM NEWS - DANIELSON A horse that was taken away from here one afternoon early last week has been located in a sales stable at Boston. The police are still looking for Arnold Cor- bett, Arnold being the young man who departed this locality the same day the horse disappeared from the stables of Leon Shippee, who handles many horses in the course of a year and who was friendly ewith the missing young man, more of less trusted when he was here by Mr. Shippee. Deputy Sheriff Charles E. Ayer knows many men throughout the United States, a legacy of the many years during which he represented ome of the largest beef concerns in the country and traveled for them in every nook and corner of the United States. Among his acquaintances are many horse dealers—for he was a big buyer of horse flesh for the beef com- pany a few years back. This being true it was only natural that the owner of one of Boston's largest sales stables got in touch with Sheriff Ayer by telephone when a youth appeared there in Bostpn and offered a horse for sale—a saddle horse over which the owner’s suspicions aimost immediately were aroused—the circumstances being so peculiar. It appenrs that Corbett rede the borse trom Danielson ‘to Boston and attempted to turn the steed into cash at a well known sales stable. Owners of the stable, accepting the horse for keep, but not for sale, immediately sensed that all was not regular with the deal and after quizzimg the youth and wscertaining that he came from this place got in touch with Sheriff Ayer and learn- ed that officials here have been search- ing for Cofbett and the horse for nearly 2 week. - Mr. Shippee was notified of the where- abouts of the animal which probably will be allowed to remain in Boston—to be wid at auction, this process of dispos- ing of the animal being regarded as more profitable -than bringing it back to Danielson. In the meantime Corbett is being watch- ed for, and will be arrested if located and refurned here to answer to a charge of horse stealing. The young man rode away with the horse last Tuesday after- noon while Mr. Shippee was away on business. Charies Lannom of 205 street, Providence, was taken back to that address from Danlelson Monday after being held at the police station here from the early morning hours of Monday. Lannon was picked ' up by Officers Christopher Andrews and Arthur DeFor- st on night duty, about 3 o'clock Mon- day morning while the Providence man was wandering about in an aimless con- #ition. Upon being questioned during Monday by Chief John McFarland it was ascertained that Lannon had submitted about three months ago to the remowal of one of his eves. The operation seemed to have pecular effect on hism, and it was learned Monday that he wandered away from his home in Providence Sun- dxy afternoon and it is now evident walked all the way from that city to Danielson, arriving here during the sarly hours of Monday morning. Questioning by Chief McFarland de- weloped the necessary information to al- low of eommunicating with Mr. Lanmon’s relatives and his brother came here Mon- fay afternoon and took him back to Prowidence. More or less talk has doveloped from t charge that the Bartlett High school tem of Webster did not play an exclus- tvely student team when It appeared here against Killingly High school last Friday afternoon, and yet was held to 2 T to 7 tle. If all the stories are to be believed Bartlett played a combina- tion town and high scheol team against the Killingly high school organization. I this is true, and evidence seems to support the claim, Bartiett should have won. for Killingly High plays only reg- ular studemts of the school and . is not out to make records with ringers. Kill- Iogly has one of the best fostball teams of ahy high school in southern New England this fall, but it is not conceded that they are expected to beat semi-pro- fessional teams, and im Bartlett High is guilty of playing other than students n the school it should be strongly cen- sured for its tactics ij allowing other than bona fide ‘students to play. Wednesday aftrnoon of this = week James Sayles of Elmville will have the members of the Killingly Poultry club &t his home for a meeting. This club is one of the organizations formed as the result of the activities of the Windbam County Farmers and has been L benefit to the poultrymen in this town who are members of it. .

Gahan, which | was stolen during the early hours of Sun- day morning from the place where it had been left parked near the passenger sta- tion of the N. Y., N. H. & H. railroad, while sons of Mr. Gahan who had used it to rush from their home to the central fire station in .answer to an alarm were out in the Woodstock avenue -section of the city. There are circumstances out of the or- dinary connected ‘with: the theft of the Gaban car. It seems there is a pessi- bility that erstwhile residents of the city ! have made off with it. Reports were cur- rent about the city Monday that the car ‘Wwas seen standing between the New Ha- ven road passenger station and the West- emn Union Telegraph company office, op- posite the station, at about 3 o'clock Sun- day morning. It is also related that it afterwards was started down the steep incline leading toward the old state ar- mory ; that it took on gas at a filling sta- tion and later was driven off. It seemed Monday as though there might be a chance of getting the car for its rightful owner. Some things that the police were confident of on Monday may not appear in print at the present time, but it seems quite clearly established that the car was taken away by people who are quite familiar with Putnam and who knew exactly what they were doing and what the chances of detection were when they made off with the missing car, which is a touring type of a well known make. When the school comimittes of the town of Thompson meets this week one of the important matters that it will consider will be that of erecting a new school building at Mechanicsville. In pressing for a building more suited emony, Miss Mary Delima Quintal of this place and Onesime Roy of*Goodyear were united in matrimony. The couple will make their home in Goodyear, where Mr. Roy is a resident. Repairs to the bridge over Snake Meadow brook near Meadow Brook Inn at South Killingly are now underway. This is one of the bridges put in last fall in connection with the building of the new state highway to Providence. The work being done is said to have been made necessary by the nature of the stream bridged and in no way inter- feres with traffic over the new route. It has beem demonstrated beyond doubt that fortune tellers continue to hold an unusual sway of scores of people of Danielson and that these people are will- ing to pay money to be told about the futore and what it holds for them. All of which is an invitation for any wise g22aboo who has no conscience to go out and get a trunk full of easy money if he is willing to exercise his imagination for the purpose of telling people what they are willing to pay money to have someone tell them. Theodore, the only Rassian wolt heund In this cormer of the state, has grown almost to the dimensions of a grand | duke of the czar's regime while ambling about the back yard down at the Longo property on Main street. He stands 30 inches high at the present time and is not a year oid. Michael Longo, owner of the dog, says that Theodore is be- coming a regular man-eater, as evidenced by his swallowing the hand and most of one forearm of a friendly merchant who essayed to feed him the other day. Teddy is not a vicious dog, however, and was merely anxious to fill up an elong- ated interior when he snapped out for a hunk of meat and swallowed a man’s arm and hand along with the lunch. The in- cident did not result in a casualty and Teddy remains the pet of the neighbar- hood. As soon as the fortune Christmas and Thrift club funds is released here about December 15, another drive will be inaugurated by Danielson banks for membership in sir#ir clubs for the 1923 period. Not much urging is neces- sary to get those who are to join again, but the bankers realize that there are thousands of people who have not been members of such chibs who would benefit themselves by coming in for next year, HE SUFFERED Until “Fruit-a-tives” Brought Perfect Health 49 AxpErsoX Srt., PorTLAND, MAINE, ““ I was troubled with Constipation ever since I can remember.

Educational Comedy Selznick News to the educational needs of the Mechan- icsville section of the town of Thompson its representative on.the town scnool committee has pointed out that the pres- ent building is inedequate to the needs of that community, that it.is antiquated, and that something should be dome to meet the requirements of the village just to the north of Putnam. It so happens that the town of Thomp- eon not only is out of debt but has a surplus of approximately $12.000 in its treasury. It so happens, also, that the little two-room brick schoo¥iouse at Me- chanicsville was built a great many years ago by the mill company in that village— at present known as'the French River Textile company—and that the town of Thompson has been getting by rather easy as to its: obligations in providing suitable school facilities for the children of a progressive manufacturing village. Up to the very recent past, the Mechan- icsville school has been worrying along without janitor service’ other than such ‘as was firnished for 'a very smafl sum per week. paid to thoee willing to volun- teer for very poorly paid work. It is understood that the Fremch River Textile company has interested itself, af- | ter soficitation, in the new school build- ing project and that it-may go so far as to donate a suitable site for the prgposed new schoolhouse if the town school com- mittee is favarably inclined toward doing something in the cducational interest of the village. There is an outside possi- bility; it appeared Monday, that the com- pany even may go bevond that point if the town of Thomoson will give Mechan- icsville a modern four-room schoolhouse such as it appears is required to meet the needs of that community. Among the matters claiming the atten- tion of the police on Monday was a break at the Motor Tire Service company's store on South Main street during the early hours of Sunday morning. This’ particu- lar raid seems to have been exclusively with the view of getting money. About $12.50 was taken from ths store, but there is nothing to indicaie that any at- tempt was made to carry off any tires, tubes, automobile accessories or other things from lines in which the firm deals. It appears that no great difficulty was experienced by the burglars in gaining access to the store. Whatever valuables were made available for them after get- ting in seem. to have been far over- shadowed by the interest in the eash in the till, which was cleaned out and other prospects for a clean-up left undisturbed. State Bank Commissioner John B. Byrne, whose home is in this city, was reported late Monday afternoon as favor- ably past the crisis in his illness with pneumonia at St. Francis’ hospital in Hartford. His sister, Miss Isabelle Byrne, superintendent of the Sloane Maternity hospital. in New . York, is with him at Hartford. Commissioner Byrne became seriously ill last Friday and was removed from the Hotel Heublein, where he makes his home so the banks’ announcements relative to next year's clubs will appear about mid- | December and are expected of being a means of inducing many new members to join. The novelty of seeing traffic rushing through Reynolds street over the new state highway route to Providence has not as yet worn off sufficiently to wean residents along that thoroughfare from the specialty of counting the cars that pass ever hour. ‘While New York is on tiptoe this week for a glimpse of Georges Clemenceau, the tiger of France,” Danielson residents ar peering every hour af the day for on look at a coal man with at least ons ladle of coal for the~ and their comfort.

The idea bf amortization was first ob- tained from Europe in 1913, Dr, Owens said, and incorporated in -the Federal Loan Act under which almost §1,- 000,000,000 has been loaned to Ameri- can farmers. While members of the trade commission were studying post war conditione in Egrope the plan of amortization of allied debts and repara- tions was broached and received the ap- proval of statesmen in almost every Eu- ropean country, he said. 2 Acting upon this idea, Dr. Owens had prepared. figures for the annual pay- ments of various debts, ranging from $12,000,000,000 down to $350,000,000, into the Woodstock avenue section of the city being fruitless insofar as the mission of the department is concerned.
