Whitmore Property Purchased by Na-

Nazaire Peloquin has purchased the Edmund T. Whitmore property, on the corner of Elm and Bullock streets. The transfer of the property Is one of the most Important real estate transac- tions that has occurred in this section for some time. MT. Peloquin is not prepared to say just what he will do in the way of making changes in the property but may decide to raise the present building about twelve feet and have four stores on the street level. The location is an excellent one for a busi- ness building, though it marks the en- croachment of the trade section. into the residential section in that part of the city. The location Is a very desir- able one and all the vicinity is bound to be ultimately absorbed for trade purposes as the city continues to grow
 MT. Whitmore will vacate the prop erty after residence of fifty years. He said Saturday that he was arrang- ing to leave Putnam, and would make his home in Willimantic.
 MT. Wllitmore is one of the best known of the city's citizens. and has been frequently honored by election to various public offices. He was for many years engaged in the shoe man ufacturing business, but of late years has been retired.

Mid the linotypes and presses
sits a minstrel who cartases
Dainty silhouettes Of fancy,
Subtle airs of neCromancy,
From the silent keys he hammers
In the vitals Of the din!
AS the papers headlight cusses
And the foreman fumes and fuses
At the swiftness of divorces
And the slowness of their forces,
Stlll he weaves his fairy fancies
In the wee small hours Of night!
Soft and low, In dulcet measures,
Sings the minstrel of the pleasures.
OF the purling stream that whimples
And the maiden's check that dim
pies
At the vortex of the babel,
He is singing sweet and low
On the morrow he is sleeping
As the waking horde comes sweeping
To the conflict OF the masses
Where the golden goblet passes.
And they read what he has fashioned
In the hurry and the din!
Some there are whose hearts are
lightened,
Some whose daily hopes are bright
ened,
Some who lose the blight OF sadness
In his minstrelsy OF gladness-
And the world Is touched with
laughter
BY the Minstrel of the Press!

III is quite in order to ask why
the solons at Springfield would so
change the revenue Jaw of the state
that counties may procure more
money from the general tax levy, but
ciiics can not. when the cities of the
state are in greater need of it than
the counties or at least in as great
need. Perhaps the statesmen feel
that If the cities need more revenue
they can get IL from saloon licenses
while counties have no such source,
to speak Of This is true in cities
where Prohibition has not deprived
the people of this source of revenue;
but cities which have been thus de-
prived will JUS have to beg. bunch.
steal base or run a sandy" unit;
something happens to relieve them.
