WINDS0R. Crops Show Good Returns New Assessor Appointed. A result of the harvest of the various crops in this vicinity has been compiled. The tobacco crop is a bumper yield and of exceptionally fine quality, as has been noticed since some of the growers have commenced taking down and stripping the plants. The average weight is very heavy.

The potato crop is the largest in many years and the potatoes are of large size and free from grub, which is uncommon in case of a damp season. One of the proprietors of the Windsor Canning Company said that the tomato crop had yielded far beyond his expectations and 4,000 cases had already been packed and sold and many orders could not be filled. Also the apple crop was the finest and largest that he had seen in years and that the factory would run as long as it could get apples, there being such a demand for the canned fruit. Since the recent town meeting it appears that there were several things that were omitted that should have been attended to at the meeting, including the accepting of the reports of the various town officers, which in past years have been an Important factor of the meetings. Active work has been begun on making repairs on the covered bridge and the north end has been jacked up so as to remove the only pier In order to put the new pier in place.

The selectmen, Saturday morning, appointed Stanton F. Brown to fill the vacancy of assessor caused by the resignation of A. E. Holcomb. The selectmen were also waited upon by representatives of a Jewish society from Hartford which wished to obtain consent to locate a Jewish cemetery at Belmont Park, saying that they had the refusal of this section of ground for this purpose.

The opinion of the selectmen was that it would not be desirable for the townspeople to have a cemetery in this locality. The old Congregational Chapel is being converted into a two tenement house. This building was until recently occupied by the Bavler Novelty Company, which has moved to Hartford. George Nlles, son of Mr. and Mrs.

1 (Special to The Courant.) WILLIMANTIC, Monday, Oct 14. One of the most important town meetings for several years was held Saturday afternoon at the town building when the adjourned annual town meeting was held. At first the attendance was not large but as the meeting progressed many: more electors came In so that during the afternoon there was considerable of an attendance, more so than usual. Several matters of importance to the town were scheduled to come up for discussion and action. Lawyer Thomas J.

Kelley was moderator while Town Clerk Fenton acted as clerk. The first matter was the report of the special committee In relation to the widening of the South Main street stone arch bridge, this being brought be. fore the meeting at this point by motion. Mr. Eugene Lincoln spoke briefly telling that the estimates of probable cost ran from $11, 000 down to $3,300.

The $11,000 estimate was for a stone addition while the others were for reinforced concrete. There was considerable discussion among those present as to the selection of either stone or concrete for the addition. Some thought that the addition should be stone to conform woth the bridge. Others favored concrete for various reasons. Then there was some discussion as to the amount to be expended on the work.

Finally It was voted that the selectmen be Instructed to have the South Main street stone arch bridge enlarged to conform with the plans and report as submitted by the committee, and that the sum of $12,000 be expended for that purpose, that the selectmen sign no contract for any work until plans and specifications for both kinds of work, the tone and reinforced concrete, together with estimates, be furnished to a town meeting called for that purpose by the selectmen. The reports of the various town officers were accepted as printed and distributed. A tax of 10 mills was voted and the selectmen were authorized to borrow money during the year for town expenses. The new contract with the state of Connecticut in regard to the erection of a new building here on Windham street was the source of considerble discussion. Lawyer George E.

Hinman made the committee's report and read the proposed contract. The committee recommended the adoption of the contract with the state and it was done. He said that the treasurer of the Windham Manufacturing Company had written to the effect that he would recommend to the board of directors that the town of Windham be released of all conditions attached to the deed by which the town secured the land which has been used for school purposes and on which It Is Intended to build the new school. The report of the committee was accepted and it was voted to approve of the contract after an amendment had been accepted to the effect that all money received for tuition of children from other towns who attend the Windham Street School be made payable to the treasurer of the town of Windham. The selectmen were authorized to convey the Windham site to the state and pay one-third of $50,000 to the state.

The matter of an appropriation of $500 for St. Joseph's Hospital of this city was the cause of considerable discussion pro and con. R. H. Fenton moved thai no action be taken on that clause of the warning, on the ground that pub-lice money should not be expended for a private Institution.

This motion vaa defeated by a larsie majority." James Hapgarty moved that the town appropriate. $500 for the hospital for the coming year. There was considerable discussion and finally the motion was carried by a vote of 37 to The sum of $8,000 was appropriated for the schools of the town for the ensuing year. The sum of o0 was appropriated from a town missionary. The meeting lasted nearly three hours.

Purse Stolen. Miss Dora Heubner, who lives with her sister at No. 46 Church street, has reported to the police the loss of a purse containing $8, a garnet ring and a black hand bag. Miss Heubner kept the articles in her bureau nd miBsed them Thursday. The purse is believed to have been stolen a woman who had been stopping with them but a few days.

Preaches Farewell Be rmon. Rev. a. Broden, who for the past eight years has been pastor of the Ebenezer Lutheran Church in this city and the Salem Lutheran Church or Norwich, delivered his farewell sermon to his local parishioners yesterday morning.v He will leave town the latter part bf next week to have narRe of the Maria Lutheran Church Britain during the absence of s. Ohman, who Is to take a turopean trip.

His resignation was tendered much against the wishes of jne local parishioners who desired him remain, but Mr. Broden decided he "ned a change after having remain- one place- for so many years.

Tour common sense tells you that your house would burn faster If it caught underneath than If It caup-M on top. The same principle works with The Peck-WllllamHon underfeed Furnace.

Your coal burns on top and the heat Is radiating against the dome and shies of your furnace all the time. That is why you save mora than half of your coal bill. IVI. S. FIa 1183 MAIX STREET.
