pR. NEIL MAcPHATrER
Befriends Two Young Canadians Vic
 timized by Broadway Sharp.

The following story, containing men, ton of Dr. Neil Macphatter. son of Hon. G. A. Hammond and well known in Putnam, appeared in Fridays New York Evening World:
 Arthur and Eugene Sherbourne were at the Canadian club before it was opened this morning ready to take the jobs pr. Neil Macphatter hopes to get for them. They are badly in need of job, for they had no place to sleep last night except the police station, and their breakfast was paid for by sub scription taken up among the reserves at the West Thlrtieth street station.
 The two were taken to Lieut.. Thom- as Daly early last night by Policeman Wertheimer and the younger spake thus:
 If you please, your worship. I am Arthur Sherbourne, IS years old, and this is my brother, Eugene, 21. We hail from the province of Quebec. We've been working on a farm up there for five years, sir.
 We arrived here today. Tonight about 6 o'clock we were standing at Broadway and Thirty first street when a fine looking gentleman walks across the road and says to a man close by:
 Say, how would you like to get a good job?
 "I have a job replies the other chap.
 Eugene and I, sir, bricks up our ears at this and I says to him we would like jobs and he offers us SEQ a week each. Then the gentleman says he is going to hustle us up to the Grand Central depot and take us to q village in Connecticut state called Hartford. There he said he would put us to work in his motor car shop.
 Have you any money?' the gentle man asks next.
 q tell him l have s60 and Eugene has $25. Then he suggests it will be best for us to give him this money to take care of until we have worked long enough to open a bank account. He says he will put it in two envelopes and seal them. We give him the money and he goes into the Gilsey house to get the envelopes.
 Stay right where you are,' he says. Don't move. You might get lost
 We stand right there, sir. for three quarters of an hour, and he didn't come back"
 Dr. Neil Macphatter of No. 249 Madi- son avenue, president of the Canadian club, heard of the plight of the youths and sent word to the station that Eu- gene and Arthur should call on him this morning, when he would try to get them real job.

first story, and was first observed by the night men at work in the railroad yard. An alarm was pulled in about 3.30 a. m. from box 23, and by the time the firemen arrived the fire had work ed its way through the roof. The flames were bursting through the win dows on all floors. Five streams were played on the burning structure, but 1t was the worst fire that Putnam has seen since, the destruction of the mill of the Pine Tree Worsted company, in May of last year, and it was after 6 o'clock before it was under. control. The firemen made such a gallant fight that the impending total loss of the building was averted. Mansfield Hose company made the record Of having every member at the fire and on duty, which is exceptional in volunteer de- partments.
 The factory, at one time big shoe shop, is occupied by Cases slipper manufactory and by Dorsey x Bone wood turner's, a firm that recently came to Putnam. The amount of the loss had not been definitely determined Sunday, but 1t is mostly. covered by in- Surance.

for the death of one of their number
 The ruins will be searched today to determine this belief. There was no livestock in the barn, a fact which strengthens the belief that the odor of burning flesh was that of a human being The barn was filled with hay and farming implements, the property of Thomas O. Shea, who lived on the John Williams farm near Dayville Four Corners The barn was owned by the heirs of Edward Danielson. Whether the property was insured could not be learned Sunday evening. No alarm was given, as the fire was outside the bor- ough limits.

Rev. F. D. Sargent and Chester E. Cbild, who went to Minneapolis last week as delegates from the Putnam Congregational church, write home as follows:
 "When we reached Albion, Mich, we care into a snowstorm that increased in volume and severity so that long before we reached Chicago we were pas sing fields upon which there were trree or four inches of snow and the trees were so covered with snow that we were reminded of the days in Christmas week. The sight was all the more unusual because the vines in the garcens were not touched by the frost and some of the fields were as green as in midsummer"
 Rev. MT. Sargent and MT. Child are expected to return to Putnam about the middle of this week.

\ life may have been lost in a fire that totally destroyed the barn on the Edward Danieison estate near Vest field cemetery about II o'clock Sunday night. An odor like burning flesh came strongly to the nostrils of the few peo- pie that were able to reach the scene before the flaming structure fell in with a crash. The house on the prem ises has been unoccupied for long time and the barn has been a lodging place for tramps, who are believed to be responsible for the fire and maybe

VIOLATED GAME LAW.
Charles B. Salisbury and Son of Moos- up Found by Special Game Warden Pease-Fined $83 and $25.

Charles B. Salisbury and his son, Lester, a minor. both of Moosup, were found guilty and fined $S3 and s25, re- spectively, for unlawfully having an excessive number of partridge and woodcock in their possession after d hearing in a justice court in Central Village Saturday afternoon. Attorney Charles l.. Torrey of Putnam acted as justice, Deputy Judge John H. Barnes of the Norwich city court acting asi prosecutor and Attorney Donald G. Perkins of Norwich as counsel for the defendant. No defensive evidence was submitted at the hearing, and an ap- peal was taken to the superior court F. F. salisbury furnished he bond of S10O. The hearing was held in the town hall and was attended by nearly 300 people.
 Canterbury Man Sold the Game.
 The Salisburys were brought into court as the result of the activity of E.. Linn Pease, a special game protec- tor of Thompsonville. It appears that Pease, in the guise of hunter, came to Canterbury last Wednesday, hunted with a Louis Greenway of that place. whose father acted as host to Pease during hls stay, and learned that young Greenway had previously and was to deliver birds to Salisbury. Pease bought the birds from Greenway before the latter became aware of his true identity and the nature of his mission, and in the course of events agreed to allow Pease to go with him to Moosup, when other birds were to be delivered on Friday. It appears that Greenway had 20 partridge and three woodcock in bag when he entered the Salisbury place, and after depositing them on the floor left there.
 Salisbury picked the bag up and started with it for the cellar. Then Pease got busy, but when he attempted to secure the bag the elder Salisbury interfered. Pease recovered the birds, however, and the arrest followed

An aching back is instantly relieved by an application of Sloan's Eminent.
 This liniment takes the place of massage and is better than sticky plasters. It penetrates without rubbing through the skin and muscular tissue right to the bone, quickens the. blood, relieves congestion, and gives permanent as well as temporary relief.

An extra dividend of twenty cents share, in
addition to the regular quarterly dividend OF
thirty cents per share, was declared today by the
directors Of the Godfeld Consolidated Mines
company, payable January 81 to stockholders of
record December 81 The extra distribution is
approximately $4,000, which added to the
regular dividend of $1,O680O0 makes total OF
81, 100000 that will be disbursed to Consolidated
stockholders January 81 The grand total Of
Consolidated dividends that date will be
S., ,687 900.
Announcement was made that General Man
ager J. II. Mackenzie has resigned and will be
succeeded or January 1st by Mr.. j. II. Finlay,
formerly general manager of the Portland Gold
Mining company in Cripple Creek, but during
the last three years being engaged in private
business and examination work, with head
quarters in New York.
The extra dividend reflects in positive way the
splendid physical condition of the property, and
emphasizes the oft-repeated assertion that this Is
the greatest gold mine ever discovered in the his
tory Of the world. King Solomon, with all the
reputed wealth Of bis mines in the heyday OF his
glory would turn green with envy if he were or
earth today
Critics of Consolidated and of Goldfeld will find
but little consolation for themselves in the cold
statement Of fact regarding the earnings and
profits of this great property. And when 1T is re-
membered that this extra dividend was earned
with the Combination mill out of commission since
Sept 25, it makes the argument still stronger
and more convincing 1t takes hold with grip
that can not be shaken off.
