OBITUARY.
R. H. Carpenter.

The relatives and friends of Ransom H. Carpenter were shocked to learn Of his death from heart disease Monday afternoon. Mr. Carpenter was around as usual Monday morning, going To the polls and voting. Late in the fore noon he returned home and after nav, ing his dinner went to his room and lay down. where he was later found dead It is known by the family that he went to sleep after lying down, and it is thought that he did not awaken.
 Medical Examiner Dr. W. R. Tinker e South Manchester was called.
 MT. Carpenter was the son of Homer G. and Mary Dibble Carpenter and was born in Rochester. N. Y. 55 years ago. He spent nearly all of his life in Indiana until IS years ago, when he moved to Bolton with his parents and son, Roy T. Carpenter, whose mother had died in Indiana.
 MT. Carpenter is survived by a sister, Mrs. Louis H Levey, of Indianapolis, son, Roy T. Carpenter, of Hartford, four nieces, Miss Baker, Misses Mary, nephew. Joseph Heating, all residing in the west.
 MT. Carpenters habit of always mak- ing himself kind, helpful neighbor and his pleasing cordiaiity to all have made him many friends.
 The funeral was held from his late home Wednesday forenoon. Rev. c. W. Burt was the officiating clergyman. Burial was in the Center cemetery.
 Mir and Mrs. $. Peterson Sumner were in Hartford last week Friday at tending the funeral of Mrs. Summers s uncle, Henry Grant.
 Mir. and Mrs. Louis Beers have re- turned to New ork for the winter.

At the last meeting of the court of common council on election night, and just before the final retirement of Senior Alderman Stephen J. DoNney, after nine years of excellent service to the city, that retiring Fourth ward official for a second time suggested a change in the method of city advertis- ing, claiming that rates higher than charged to large individual advertis- CTS were being paid the local news papers. Just why the retiring alder man should endeavor to effect a change in regard to advertising at this late day in his political career is not plain, as the same system has been in exist ence ever since the alderman has been a member of the court of common council, and long before he cast his first city election ballot Mir Downey evidently believed that the city was paying a higher rate than was charged for advertising of similar character to individuals or corporations, which is not the ia t. The city is not reg ular advertiser for the intire year, but advertiseS only at such times as Is ob- ligatcry under the laws of the state or the city and is therefore a transient advertister called, and the charge is for transient or short time advertis- ing, the same as is charged to others.
 As the city of New London. through it's representatives, is unable to de- ternine just how much advertising will be required during the yse.r, and is therefore not in position to make con tract for any specified amount of ad- vertising for a yearly period, therefore the present way of advertising Is the most beneficial from a financial stand point for if a yearly rate was wanted the estimated space would have to be ample to meet all requirements, and then the city would be paying for ad- vertising space it did not receive, in case the space contracted for was not used. In the event of greater space

So far as known there will be no opposing candidates to the pres ent incumbents within the party that is in the majority, it being a sort or unWritten local law in the council that officeholders within the gift of that body are irremovable and would be candidates are given to understand that to file applications would be time wasted, and if even acted upon in the council would result in defeat, as it would be considered a political crime to fire one party worker from office to make way for even more active par ty worker.

New Haven Church Had No Room for
 Six MemcriaI Windows


 Because their acceptance would make it necessary to take down memo rial windows now in place in ' the church, the Ecclesiastical society of the Grand avenue Congregational church, New Haven. decided at a meet ing lastkweek not to accept six memo rial windows provided under the will of Mrs. Arietta Harrison.
 The will provided that there were to be inscriptions on all of the windows which were to be memorials of Mrs. Harrison and her husband Samuel. Whether the s3,o0o left for the win dows will go to the church or to the estate will now be taken to the courts to decide. 1 present there is me- mor1al window to pr. Hart and there are only five other windows. The only alternative was the removal of the present window or the cutting of a new one to fulfill the provisions of the bequest. This the society voted not to do.

Reese brought the diamonds with him on the train to New Haven ard unfortunately arrived after all the hanks had been closed. He went to q hotel. but when he started to go to bed he became so nervous that he decided to deposit the diamonds in safe place. Reese got the jewels again in the morning and that afternoon left the city with those of the jewels that he had not disposed of to his local customers.
 This deposit was the most valua ble ever left at the police station in the remembrance of members of the de- pertinent The little paper covered case which contains what would make two or three fortunes to an ordinary person was stuck into the little safe in back of the police railing, where it remained until Reese called for it.
