There was one less saloon doing business in the town of Windham and the city of Willimantic Tuesday, as the one situated at S1 Main street, near the fair grounds, was closed up Mon day evening.

Hast lngs for a judgment of $154 and costs obtained by a Hartford firm against GajewslIi for liquor sold to him and not settled for by payment There IS an interesting and peculiar condi- tion in connection with the affair. Ga JeWski sold out the stock in the salncn to his bartender and the latter had been conducting the place under Gajewskis license although it had never been transferred. Gajewsl1i went to Hartford Tuesday to ascertain what ne could about the predicament in x hich he finds himself. The saloon is closed tighter than a drum, however.

Karkorian was married in Put nam by a justice of the peace in Cc- tober, 1908, but it developed a lew weeks ago that he also had wife iiv- ing in Armenia, this fact being posi- lively known through the fact that a cousin of Karkorian, now residing in this city. was a witness at the cere- mony performed in the old country

\ Durham correspondent writes: The potato crop seems to be nearly a failure here this season, small in size few in the hill and a great ways apart. One of our farmers "a few days ago sold his two-acre field of potatoes 10 a party for Sl0. The party wishing to speculate q little sold them to another party for S11, accordingly the last pur- chaser sent his men with teams to harvest the crop. It is said that after they had worked faithfully for half A day they succeeded in digging half a bushel and gave up the job.
