SAVINGS BANK TO REOPEN.
Every Indication of Success and Public Confidence.

This (Monday) morning the Wind ham County Savings bank is to reopen for business, after having been closed since August 6, 1912, under a restrain ing order issued by Judge Gardiner Greene of the superior court at the re- quest of the state bank commissioners, and after having since passed through a court action that resulted in an agreement between all parties concern ed that the institution be allowed to go on and do business in the regular way. When seen Saturday, Hon. Frederick A. Jacobs, the banks new president, said that the institution has found it. self in a position to open with sur plus on hand, exclusive of any profit able transactions that have occurred.
 Reorganized and again ready to go on with it's business, those most close ly in touch with the bank give the most positive assurance of it's strong posi- tion and ability to go forward and be- come one of the most important of the the smaller savings institutions in the eastern part of the state
 On every hand in DanieIson and vii oinity there is a disposition to regard the troubles through which the insti- tuition has passed as unfortunate, but of a nature that will do no permanent injury and may eventually prove for the benefit of the bank, as has once be- fore been the case with bank in this town.
 Only 10 per cent Of withdrawal from any account is to be permitted under the agreement by which the bank is to reopen and 10 per cent. additional ev- cry three months succeeding until fur ther notice-this by the terms approV- ed by the court. The predictions Sat urday were that the withdrawals would not be heavy, and this belief was strengthened by calling attention to the matter of the interest money that will be received next April by those who permit their deposits to remain. On Saturday no decision had been reached as to who the new treasurer s to be- but an experienced bank man was one of several under consideration for the place, and with the likelihood of a selection being made at any min ute
 The new board of the bank will work faithfully in the interest of the insti- tuition, which is expected to be show ing a fourishing condition within a few months.

TWO PLACES ENTERED.
Burglars at Mill Office of Manhasset Company and HurIbut Store Got Only an Old Revolver.

Putnam citizens awoke Saturday morning to find that the city had again been visited by burglars. This time the mill office of the Manhasset company and the store of N. T. Hurl- but in the Peioquin building on Elm street were the places entered. In neither place did the thieves secure anything except an old revolver taken from the mill office.
 The burglars were frightened away from the Hurlbut store which was
 probably the second and last place entered, and they may have been
 obliged to leave the mill office before they were really ready to go.
 The presumption is that the break at the mill cffice was made with the
 idea of getting a part of the payroll from the safe, but the cash was not
 disturbed, which gives rise to the the-
 ory that something developed to cause the men to hurriedly leave the
 place.
 Entrance to the mill office was gain
 ed by breaking out pane of glass in one of the windows and releasing the catch The office was pretty thorough ly looked over, but the revolver is the only loss that was reported to the po- lice.
 At the Burlbut store the men got in side by breaking out a plate glass Tn the entrance, this, according 10 the idea of N Peloquin, owner of the building, being done because they could not release the locks. Joseph Langlois. who has an apartment in the building and over the store, was awakened by the barking of dog, probably disturbed by the men, and gave the alarm. Three men fled from l the store, two of them going through Buck street, the other continuing up 1 Elm street. This break was made be- l tween the hours of and 4 o'clock. When the interior of the Hurlbut l store was inspected it was found that | the men had prepared to make a good haul. Suitcases taken from stock to l the number of four had been opened | and laid on the floor, One suitcase had l been filled with suits. principally of

Sergeant Patrick Hayes was coming down the street from near the business center when the men started off and it is thought his footsteps were heard by the man on guard, he also realizing that MT. Langlois might be after them at any minute.
 During Saturday railroad men re- ported to the police that three men came into the local yards on 8 freight that reached here during the early morning hours. These men, who were driven away by the railroad employees, may have been responsible for the
 Quiet Election Forecasted.
 This is annual town election and town meeting day in Putnam The polls are to be opened in the munich pal building at 6.30 a. m.. the time for closing to be decided as is usually done.
 There is not a contest in sight on the town ticket this year; there is to be no vote on the license question, so the annual event promises to be a very quiet one. The only real inter est in the town meeting, which will be called upon to pass upon reports of the various town officers and to make the usual appropriations seems to be over the resolution providing for the reassessment of all of the property in the town.
