New Sisters Arrive

Monday the last of the Sisters of Mercy, that have been in Putnam so many years, departed for Hartford where they will enter upon duties at Mount St. Joseph s Seminary, Hamil- ton Heights. It was to this seminary that the pupils of Notre Dame Acade. my were transferred when that insti. tuition closed it's doors, so that the Sis. ters will have some of their old pupils under their charge.
 The Sisters of Mercy will be succeed ed by the Sisters of the Holy Ghost. Several arrived here Monday afternoon but they are only here for the sum mer. The regular staff will be ap- pointed August 22nd in Hartford. There will be fourteen in all and they will have charge of the pupils in the parochia schools.
 The renovation and alteration of the old convent building for parochial school purposes is being carried on rapidly and all Is expected to be in readiness for the opening of school at the fall term. IL Is expected that when completed the schools will be modern model ones and will be great improvement over the old crowded wooden buildings.

Found Two Rnnaways

Sergeant Patrick Hayes found two fourteen year-old boys wandering around in an alley way Monday night and upon inquiry found that they were runaways. He took one into custody, the other getting away.
 The boy who was locked up at the police station told the probation of- ficer an improbable story. He said three years ago, when he was but II years old, he left his home in New Bedford and had not been there since. He had worked in Worcesteriand later in Oxford. He came to this city day or two ago with the other boy whom he picked up in Worcester. lie said his name was Alfred Martin and that his parents lived in New Bedford. The other boy he said was Alfred Barnaby and his home was in Worcester but that his parents did not live together. He said they were looking for a place to sleep when the officer found them. The chief of police in New Bedford was called up and stated that he knew nothing about the boy but that he would communicate with his parents. Nothing further was heard during the day and no one came for the boy. The police and the probation officer are in a quandry of what disposition to make of their prisoner.
 Wednesday morning no word was received either from the police of New Bedford or from relatives of the boy so Probation Officer Bowen did some tel ephoning and found that the lad was charge of the Massachusetts State Board of Charities. Officials stated that if the boy could be held until this Thursday morning they would send for him which they did. The runaway did not seem to mind being locked up but on the contrary seemed rather to enjoy It.

Special Town Meeling

The special town meeting held Tor the purpose of seeing if the town would vote to build a concrete bridge over the Five Mile river and make an appropriation therefor was one Of the smallest ever held in the town. Besides the town clerk and two selectmen and a representative of the press there were only three other citizens present and these were men engaged about the town building.
 Selectman Pierce explained that the bridge in question was on trunk line between Putnam and Providence re- gently taken over by the state. That the state had built a number of small concrete bridges in carrying on the work but that the bridge in question was a larger one than the state would build The change of grade made some sort Of bridge necessary as the old one was inadequate. City Engi- neer Perry was employed to estimate the cost of constructing the bridge which has 33-foot span and esiimat- ed the cost at s2,S00. The selectmen had been informed by the highway commissioner that if the town would appropriate the sum of Sl ,50O the state would build the bridge, in other words the town was to furnish about half the money.
 On motion of w. 5. Johnson it was voted to build the bridge and the sum of Sl 300 was appropriated for the work. The work will be done by the state.

Quiet, Orderly focrih

Putnam is in line with other cities all over the country and can put in the same report that is coming from all parts: "The safest and sanest Fourth ever" Never was a quieter Fourth of July observed in this city. Not an injury to a human being has been reported. There was slight property damage Thursday night set of sky rocket which whizzed across the street and hit the window in Douty's store making a hole and sending the broken glass the length of the store.
 For the most part the law regarding the use of explosives the night before was observed. Along about 10 o'clock some of the younger element could stand it no longer and had to let oil a few crackers to annoy the police and to show how smart they were to break the law, disregard the mayors request and get away with it. But they soon tired of this and throughout the re- mainder of the night all was peace and quiet.
 During the day there was but little noise. The streets were deserted and the city had the appearance of a Sun day and an unusually quiet Sunday at that. Many left the city by automo- bile or trolley and spent the day at some pleasure resort. The flake, Pom- fret athletic meet and the Oxford pa- gent all got good number. The stay-at-homes took in the moving pie ture shows. There was little drunken ness noticeable. No arrests were made the night before but during the day two intoxicated persons were picked up.
 From nearly all cities comes a simi- lar report. There were some accidents of course, but when New York city re- ports the fatality column blank there Is record never before equalled. Au- tomobile accidents were reported with some deaths. This is similar to every Monday mornings report of the day before and not strictly to be charged against the holiday. It is safe to as- sume that never again will this coun. try see the oId-fashioned barbaric Fourth of July celebration.

Body Fouud in River


 The police in this city received tel ephone call Sunday from the police of Providence stating that the body of man had been found floating in the Providence river and in his pocket was A railroad ticket from Putnam to Prov idence and asking for information con- corning him. He was described as about 50 years old, 5 feet inches tall, with dark brown striped suit, soft shirt, lavender tie, black shoes, cellu- Ibid collar and only one tooth in his mouth.
 Upon investigation 1t was found that Station Agent Baldwin and Charles Sabin at the depot remember ed the man. He arrived on the 3.27 train last Wednesday afternoon. He asked where he could get boat to go down the bay and upon heing told there was no bay he asked if he wasn't in Hartford. He acted queerly during the conversation. Upon being inform ed that he was not in Hartford he said he would go back to Providence and begin over again. He was told that he could get train from here to Hartford at 6 o'clock but he insisted that he must go back and start over again. The railroad officials saw him onto the 4 o'clock train for Providence and that was the last seen of him and the only thing known of him in Putnam.
 How he came to be in the river is not known. A coat and vest were found on wharf in Providence and when the body was found 1t was seen that the trousers matched the rest of ba afothaa

Fire On The Fourth

The Jepson house, so called because 1t was moved from the Jepson place to it's present site, one of the Ben Gros- venor cottages in Pomfret, was des- troyed by fire Fourth of July. The cottage was occupied by James Mann, head gardner for Mir. Grosvenor, and he and his family were spending the day in Woodstock. 1t is thought pos sible that fire crackers originated the fire.

Shot In Leg

At the Day ktmball hospital on tho afternoon of the Fourth & flattened bullet WAS removed from the left heel of Nicola Casale, about 24, who was brought to the institution from Gros- venordale, the village in which he was wounded, accidentally, while out with party of friends late on the might before.n
 An examination of Casale when he was brought to the hospital here showed that the bullet had entered the leg about half way between the knee and the ankle. An N-ray machine was brought into use to locate the bull let, which, 1t was discovered by pr. E. F. Perry, had lodged in the heel, evidently having glanced after strik- ing bone in the leg. The bullet was removed. 1t was of S2 ealibre.
 Casale does not know who shot him, as at the time when the accident oc- cured he was out with party that were enjoying themselves. A sting in the leg attracted his attention from the noise of discharging weapons and an examination showed the bullet wound. It is thought he received the bullet from revolver that was pointed tow ard the ground by someone who had no other intention than to help make a noisy welcome to the Fourth. The wound is not regarded as dangerous unless complications arise.
 Auto Hits Carnage Driver Doesn't Stop
 Late last Thursday night touring car ran into carriage near car barn just below;Alexsnder's Lake. The car riage was badly wrecked but the people in 1t escaped unhurt. The driver of the car did not stop to render assistance or to inquire as to the damage he had done but spurted ahead and succeeded in knocking bicyclist off his wheel before disappearing in the darkness. In the excitement the number of the auto was not observed and nothing has since been learned of the car.
 It Is statutory crime to run into person in the highway and not stop to ascertain the damage done and render assistance and if the person who com mitted the cowardly act had been caught little leniency would have been warrented and doubtless one license less would now be in eXistanee
