Warren Bliss of East Providence, K. | I, has come into possession of the his- toric Vernon Styles tavern in Thompson. The property was transferred from the former owner, E. S. Backus, Friday, and possession was taken Sunday. The tavern is over a hundred years old and after being renovated will be somewhat more modernized. Before the railroads had settled this section the tavern stood on the Boston- Hartford and Springfield-Providence pike and was a stopping place for the stage coaches. The tavern: has housed many famous men including. Lafayette. ‘While the hotel has been conducted under various managements has re- tained the name Vernon Styles, its owner and landlord, Josiah Styles, pion- eer pork packer of Chicago,.a native of Thompson. the children as affording them a place of amusement and of parents by affording a safe place for their children to skate and swim. A quarter of a century ago the Quinebaug river was used by the boys of Putnam as a swimming place but the increased manufacturing along the river and the increased population hos for years put an end to this stream as a place to swim, with the result that while 2 quarter of a century ago there was scarcely a boy in the town who did not kmow how to swim, today condi- tions are reversed and the number who cannot swim exceeds those who can. The only opportunity now afforded the boy of Putnam to learn to take care of himself in the water is when his par- ents are able to afford a vacation at the seashore or on the shore of some interior lake or pond or send him to some boys’ camp. The boy of today who misses the outdoor sports is not getting the physical development and the abili- ty to care for himself under physical difficulties that are his due. The cost of the proposed artificial pond would be small compared to the arvantages it would furnish. It was just half past sevem by the police station clock and it. was: Friday evening, a day said to be unlucky.

Members of Isrmel Putnam lodge of Odd Fellows left Putnam for Hartford in a special train shortly after five o'clock Saturday evening. In the evening™ the local lodge's excelient degree team work- ed the degree for Comnecticut lodge of the Capital City and received many compliments for their efficiency.

When “the conversa- tion was over the captain called up John Gahan, Main street, and informed him that hig stolen car had been recovered. ‘The captain, Mr. Gahan and his broth- er, Ralph, and Alfred Gagne, left ‘the city shortly afterward and at an early hour Saturday morning returned with the Gahan car. The automobile recovered was the one stolen from in front of fire head- quarters a week ago Sunday morning after its owner, a fireman, had driven there with it to answer an alarm. The alarm proved to be a false one but while the department was away from the heax quartrers the Gahan car disappear ed. The matler was reported to the police and Captain Delage immediately notifled all surrounding cities. As the days pass- ed hope of recovering the car grew less and less and had been nearly given up by the owner. In North. Attleboro the Putmam men learned that the car had“been driven in- to that city Frijday afternoon. Captain Delage got a good description of the man in the \machine. A motorcycle of- ficer drove toward the car and as he approached the awto driver jumped out and disappeared. A watch was kept but he did not return for the machine. The description of the man tallies somewhat with that of a prisoner who escaped.from Brooklyn jail some weeks ago after be- ing sent there from Putnam on a theft charge.
