Pin ney of the Business Mems association relative to the recent protest of their organization over the partial blocl<ad- ing of Lower Main street afternoons by the trolley freight car of the Rhode Island company.

The busi- ness men here are well pleased with the prompt action that has followed their calling of the matter to the att tention of the railroad officials.

JEWETT CITY.
Franchise Granted in 1927 to Incor- porate 0uinebaua Canal Bank in Nerwiet1-D. A. R. Lincoln Meeting -Masonie Banquet March 20.

Few in Jewett City or Norwich are aware that in 1927 a franchise was granted by the legislature to esta!b- lish and incorporate the Quinebaug Canal bank in Norwich. An extract from Private Acts, Vol. 1, owned by l.. D. Howe. reads that an act to incorporate the Quinebaug Canal bank was passed in the May session, A. D. 1927. The object of establishing this bank was to raise funds to defray the expense of building a canal up the Quinebaug from Norwich to the Mass achuSetts line Extracts from Miss Ellen B. Larned's History of Wind ham county reads: We highly approve of the contemplated canal on the Quin- turing and agricultural interests, open ing a ready market for our surplus Production and calling for our ener- gies and enterprise to be ready to take advantage of the expected opening
 The following officers were appointed by the association for the construction of a canal from Norwich to Massa- the river towns: President, Calvin Goddard, Esa.; vice president, John McClennan; secretary and treasurer, Adam White. Calvin Goddard has a son buried in the Jewett City ceme- tery; John McClennan was the father of George B. McClennan.
 Jewett City and Norwich were much omon Payne and Elisha Chaffee of Canterbury and Ebenezer and John Grover of Pqmfret were among the earnest petitioners with other towns Captain Butts was then a. prominent man in Canterbury and the bridge which spans the Quinebaug three miles north of the borough bears his name.

HORSE. WENT THROUGH BRIDGE.
Was Running Back to Stable Having
 Upset Sleighing Party.

The crew of a freight train running south of this city al about two o'clock Wednesday morning were startled to see large object on the track ahead of the locomotive Bringing the train to a standstill it was discovered that the object was a horse, stranded as it were on the overhead bridge at Whites crossing, the animals legs stuck down through the ties. The horse was extricated from it's position none the worse for wear if few scrapes and bruises are discounted.
 It was afterwards learned that the animal was the property of W. D. Kennedy, who has a stable here. The horse had been let to a small sleigh ing party Accounts of the affair in- dicate that the horse spilled the oc- cupants of the sleigh when it made a sharp turn at Attawaugan crossing, then ran on and up the track until it came to the bridge and got maroon ed. The horse was returned to it's owner after being taken off the bridge.

Four burglaries were reported from the town of Thompson Wednesday morning none of them resulting in great losses. Three of the breaks oc- cured at North GrosvenordaIe, where the two stores of Representative Chas- Johnson, a store run by Clarence Sea- yer and the railroad station were en- tered. The station at WilsonviIle, just north of North GrosVenorda1e, was al so broken into.
 As far as could be learned during Wednesday the total of the losses will not be much in excess of $100 ,and the most of this falls on Representa- tive Johnson. The burglars got in their work in the small hours of the morning No one saw enough of them to get a line on who they were but it was learned that they came in a of Webster.
 The two Johnson stores, one dry goods, the other grocery, are in the same building, but have separate en- frances. In each case the glass was broken out of the doors a hand thrust in and the spring lock released From the dry goods store a quantity of jew elry and wearing materials were taken and many goods disturbed. Just what the exact loss is has not been ascer- fectionery store candy was taken. The loss at the railroad station is believed to be confined to some cigars.
 The loss at Wilsonville was slight. Reports of the breaks, which at North Grosvenordale were not discovered until about five o'clock in the morn ing, were made to the local police, but they could get no trace of the burg lars, who are believed to have been amateurs.

5000 RUBBER WORKERS BACK
TO WORKING POINTS GAINED

Akron, O., March 17.-Five thou
sand rubber workers have returned
to work without gaining a single
point in their demands of the en-
ployers. They will still work ten
hours a day under the speeding-up
system.
Nine thousand men have refused
to go back to the shops. Their only
hope of concessions lies in the threat
of the Central Labor Union to call
a general strike of every industry i'm
the city if the rubber companies re-
fuse to treat with their men.
Officials of the central body today
asked the company heads to meet
them and confer on the tsrike. All
past requests of a like nature have
been turned down. A general strike
is probable in the event the compan-
les remain firm in this position.
