Mrs. Charles jameson of Norwich, has
started a cat farm. The biological de-
partment of Dartmouth college, across
the i,er, hiss for years past required
that every student in the course should
dissect one or more cats. Tbs cohse-
quent freq lncursions of students has
had disastrous effects upon the cat popu-
lation, and has for repeated times reused
the ire of the farmers. Now the Nor
wich woman has come to the rescue OF
cats on q humane principle and in what
promises to be IL very profitable business.
Some so students elect the course yearly,
and there will be good demand for the
comm odity.
The engagement is announced Of Presi-
dent Ezra Braincld Of Middlebury college
to Miss Mary E. Wright of New Haven.
Tho wedding will take place in January,
