three years old, son Of Joseph Capsar,

of everyone she met for her little boy.
A picket guard, armed with lanterns,
was thrown out and some secured the

wells and cisterns; others examined
clothes lines to see If by any mis-
chance he had been used as clothes

Lyman might have got partment" If this is true, friends of Judge Arnold think it substantiates their suspicion that the head of the police department is favorable to Judge Shea's appointment because, as they assert, Judge Arnold himself controls the decisions in the police court. It was clear at the capitol observers thought, that if hearings have any weight with the judiciary committee, Judge Ar holds chances of a reappointment are excellent. It was also noted that eX- Senator Gates and Judge Shea were very busy men at the capitol and in the city and that neither was present at the hearing Democratic observers close to the practical workings of the committee stated after the hearing they believed Attorney HarveY's chances of winning the judgeship race were very strong. Representative Bugbee, con- trarv to the expectations of Judge Ar holds and Attorney Harvey'S adher- ents, did not attend the hearing to eX- press the sentiment of his constituency on this matter that citizens believe of so much importance. The sentiment is expressed by many that if either Judge Arnold or Attorney Harvey is not reported favorably to the 1egis lature it would be "a disgrace to the judiciary committee and an insult to Wi1linantic"

Engineer A. H. Greenwood, of Greenwood and Noerr, consulting en- gineers of Hartford, Tuesday report ed to the selectmen of Windham their findings concerning the condition of the bridges in this town on April IS.
 The Natchaug River bridge was de- clared unsafe and 8 new and modern bridge to take it's place was recom- be repaired at considerable expense but a new bridge was considered the wise and economical solution of this problem.
