no higher aim in life than tramping
about the country. Occasionally there
is one who appears to be honest and
unfortunate and is looking for work, as
he claims.

WILL EXTEND LINE TO BANTAM
LAKE.

The directors of the Pennington and
Torrington Electric railway company
have decided to extend their railway
whose proposed termination was at Tor
rington, about twelve miles farther on,
to Bantam Lake. They will introduce
a bill into the legislature at the present
session giving them the right to extend
their lines from Pennington down along
the river to East Litchfleld, then around
the hill to Litchfleld and thence to Ban
tam Lake. The distance from Torrng-
ton to bantam Lake is about twelve
miles, Nand the estimated cost of build
ing this part of the road is from eight
to ten thousand dollars a mile, making
the additional cost of the road from
100000 to 100000. This addition will
open up fine country and one of the
most popular resorts in the Litchfield
hills.

and lynching in Greenwood county, last
November ended in the Federal court to-
day with verdict of not guilty. The

him to leave and telling him they would
nothe responsible for his life. though they
would protect him for thirty six hours.

they had remained voluntarily, perform

which was more than the ordinary duty

expressed that our commission will not

that his sole effort Is to shift RESPONSE
