PUTNAM
City Has Quiet HoIiday-LocaI Team Loses to DayvilIe, 11-6-Bowen Cot tags at Woodstock Burned-Thurs- days Outings and Diversions.

The fine record for a safe and sane Fourth made during the past two or three years was repeated Thursday when if possible, the quietness was more noticeable than on any previous national holiday.
 There was some noise. of course, but it was as nothing in comparison to what used to be expected and realized The restricted use of explosives was in part responsible. No firecracker over five inches in length was offered for sale by the local dealers, and the police prohibited the use of blank cartridges in reVolVers. Other very dangerous explosives were also cut out of the list of things with which to'celebrate.
 The dealers in fireworks reported a brisk sale of little crackers and the harmless types of torpedoes.
 During the afternoon hours there was only an occasional sound from an explosion, the small boy evidently hay ing exhausted his supply of noise ma,1- CTS and the wherewtth for the pur- chasing of them. The business section of the city was deserted, the only peo- pie seen there being those waiting to take cars.
 The police had practically nothing to do during the day. There seemed to be a general disposition to remain or derly. Not an arrest had been made up to o'clock.
 The nearest approach to excitement resulted from the careless use of fire crackers and the consequent starting of two fires, one at a dwelling on Church street, the other in the Wood stock avenue section. both fires being extinguised before doing much damage.
 Miss Dorothy l.. Kennedy of Wood stock avenue is visiting her uncle and aunt, Mir. and Mrs N. Waldo Kennedy, at Waltham, Mass. The trip to the Watch city was made by auto.

POETRY
WHERE THE WEST BEeins.s .

 Out where the handclasp's . little
 stronger, Out where smile dwells . uttle
 longer,
 That's where the West begins. Out where the sun is a little briRhker, Where the snows that fall are . trine
 whiter, Where the bonds of home are q wee
 bit tighter,
 That's where the West bcgina. Out where the skies are a trihe biusr, Out where friendships little truer, That's where the West begins. Out where fresher breeze is blowing. Where there's laughter in every
 streamlet flowing, Where there's more of reaping and less
 of sowing
 That's where the West begins. out where the wor is In the making, Where s! fewer 4eaT with despair are That's where the West begins Where there's more of singing and less
 of signing, Where there's more of giving and less
 of buying, And a man makes friends without half
 trying
 That's where the West begins.

 False Alarm of Fire.
 A false alarm for fire was pulled in from box 13. corner of Cottage and Furnace streets, at 1.45 Thursday morning. Ira Warren, a member of the fire department, was quickly at the box, and, discovering the fake, pulled in the recall saving all of the com panies of the department from getting out This is the first false alarm ever registered since the fire alarm telegraph system was installed several years ago. The fool performance was a contribution to the hilarious stunts pulled off by some of the all-nighters' who cannot stay out and have a good time without stopping over. Such wretched ideas of fun!

Foolish Celebrators Took Big Chances,
 But Nothing Happened.


 We'll, it's all over for another year. Danielson's celebrators, as far as is generally known, have a full comple- ment of physical parts this morning, though some of those who handled ex- plosives seemed to be trying their darnedest to sacrifice themselves or others who were so unfortunate as to get within the danger zone that they set up. Burned fingers and narrow escapes from serious hurts were con- mon. however One man, not his nor nal self. kept the passengers on a big open car in state of frightened sus- pense while he waited for the fuse to burn on a big cannon cracker that he held in his hand. He announced that his hand was so tough that it would not be Injured if the cracker did ex- plode. He tossed 1t out of the car only the fraction of a second before it burst.
