FEW CRIMINAL CASES On Windham County Superior Court Docket for September Term.

There are a few held at the county jail in Brook lyn to answer to criminal charges and Q few more who are there on appeal from lower courts in county towns, but the serious cases are very lew.

Given Satisfactory Test Under Direc ton of GaIford Smith,

watched the try-out of the sfeamer of the South Windham fire department in that village. Guilford Smith superin- tended the tests, assisted by the of ncers and a number of the members of the South Windham fire department. A most satisfactory test of the fine steamer was made, showing that wa ter could easily be thrown over the nishest tree in the village There were three men on the nozzle that was on the end of. line of hose attached to a hNrant. The water was taken faster than 1t could be fed from the hydrant ana IL IS believed that when the sue tion pipe is placed in the pond the fest will be even more satisfactory. as the water will be fed in greater quantity.
 The people of the village have more confident feeling now that they are so well provided with good fire apparatus.
