 Rev. M. A. Sullivan to Speak.
 The preliminary canvass for voters on the license question has commerce ed and will be continued until elec- tion day arrives. Public meetings are to be held by the no-hcense people, and at one of them Rev. M. A. Sulli- van of Hartford, president of the C. T. A. U., has been invited to speak.
 About the Borough.
 Hebrews of Danielson and surround ing villages attended the. New Year services in Norwich and Worcester on Thursday. The services will contin- ue until sunset this (Friday) evening. Miss Ruth E. Harrington of Day. vile, Miss Margaret Mcconnell of Ballouville, Miss Iva Babue of Mont vile and Miss M. Harries of Wilil- mantle are the teachers at the school at Attawaugan this year.
 Maude c. Lucas, formerly of Daniel son and Elmville, has filed suit for di- vorce from John ]. Lucas, whose pres ent whereabouts are unknown. The case will probably come up at this term of the Windham county superior court at Putnam.
 The Connecticut company has re- moved its line of telephone wires from the poles along it's right of way Com munication is now open to the car crews with the superintendent's of- flee at Dayville. but by a different sys- tenn.
 Cooler weather is attracting the at tention of the young men of Daniel son to the Y. M. c. A. and its work, and the probability is that during the winter months a great amount of good work will be accomplished.
 The approac hof the hunting sea- son finds the sportsmen thinking about the several new things that they will be required to remember in talk ing out their licenses this year. For one thing. the price has advanced from $1.10 to s1s25. Another thing to be re- membered this year Is that licenses are now issued for period of time between the beginning and closing of year, so that a license taken out this fall will be good only until Jan- uary 1, 1910.
 John A. Paine, administrator of the estate of John Waldo, has reached a point well toward the conclusion of his duties, which will include the sale of the Waldo block on Main street.
