REUNION OF PUPILS.
Those Taught by Thomas Latham and
 Miss Allen at UneasVille.

A special session of Uncasville school will be held today to be in the form of a reunion of those who years ago. were taught in this school by Thomas Latham or Miss Lucy Allen. The announcement of this re- union was rather misleading, many old pupils thinking the reunion was only for some particular class. All who were pupils in the time these teachers were in charge are invited to attend.
 A large attendance is anticipated. Norwich will send quite a number and in Montville and New London there are many who trace their school days to that time. There will be a regular session, from g a. m. to p. m. Those who can only attend for a short period will be excused after presenta- ton of proper reason. Those who are able to stay all day are reminded that they ought to bring a basket lunch.
 During the years Mir. Latham and Miss Allyn taught this school there were many more pupils than at the present day. at times as many as six ty-seven being counted in the big room.

 A case similar to this happened sey- eral years ago and before fthe machin- cry was stopped the woman lost her entire scalp. It is thought that care lessness was the cause of the accident, since the shaft is far below the ma chine and 1t hardly seems as If proper caution was used when cleaning 1t.

Dunham, sailed from New Bedford May ,, 1908. for the Hatteras ground and returned July with a catch of $50 barrels of oil. which is a much larger catch than that of the Margaret and in shorter time.
 The Margaret is expected here Yin few days to -be put into, readiness for another voyage. Her tryworks are now being repaired. On her recent cruise she secured 270 barrels of sperm oil which marketed and brought ,S5 000

Miss Regina Leclair of Front street, Taftville, who is employed in the card room of the Ponemah mills. narrowly escaped losing her scalp in one of the machines Thursday morning while cleaning it. Miss Leclair was at work on one of the drawing machines when in some manner her hair caught in a nut on the set screw of the shaft which runs the machine. This pulled her hair into the gear of the machine and would have torn her scalp off if the machine had not been stopped. Martin Waldron saw the trouble and rushed over and knocked the belt off, thus stopping the machine and preventing a serious acci
 dent. He. then began to unwind the
