Accident on c. V. Road Delays Pas
 seneers and Mail.

Bulletin readers awaited eagerly the arrival of their papers delayed until noon Thursday by an accident to a southbound freight train on the Cen tral Vermont road late Wednesday night. The tender left the rails just beyond Rourke's crossing a t the top of Dugway Hill. short distance from the city. The track was badly torn up for quarter of a mile and it was not until noon Thursday that passen- ger or freight traffic was able to reach the Willimantic station. Passengers on the early trains were delayed for sev- eral hours as were the mails. Much surprise was expressed that the Cen tral Vermont management did not run a short train to the place of the acci- dent to transfer passengers and mail matter to this city. No one was phys ically injured in the accident.

Ice Dealer Going Out of Business.

l.. N. Aver, ice, dealer, notified his customers Thursday that his recent attitude on the ice situation is no bluff and that he will retire from the business. This decision is the result of the city councils vote to establish q municipal ice plant and make Will Hmantic a competitor of the local dealers. It is reported that city off cials have stated they would go still further and favor action by the city that would prohibit any ice dealer re- tailing ice in Willimantic without a license that would also restrict the price to be charged by them to con sumers. The legality of such a meas ure is an open question Citizens are also asking whether the city would have the legal right to purchase. MT. Ayers stock of ice if he should give Willimantic the first option on his ice. Proprietors of hotels and markets are seriously considering installing pri- vate ice plants and the outcome of the municipal ownership policy or the city is conceded to mean but one thing. a high price for ice next summer. MT Aver stated yesterday that he would retire from the ice business the first of next month

Lamps and Safety,

Be sure that no bit of charred wick
or burned fly or moth is left in the
lower part Of the burner. There is
danger of these igniting and setting
fire to the oil in the reservoir. If a
lamp has been left standing with a
little oil in it, it should not be lighted
until filed and the burner carefully
wiped. It is possible that gas may
have formed, making the lamp unsafe
to light before ref1lling. ..
