Fun Galore When
 Folks Buy Pigs In Bags Al Adams Sale

' Persons attracted to the rummage sale being conducted at Broad and State streets by the Adams Express Company were both pleased and pain ed last night and the night before, but the pain was greatly in the minority as the packages which were bid upon were mostly containers of valuable articles.
 Under the happy smile of Arthur Elwood. the local auctioneer, a host of parcels, packages and weighty trunks were disposed of amidst the laughter and congratulations of the crowd of bidders.
 The sale which is being conducted according to the provisions of the law, embraces all packages unde1fvered in Connecticut which have been held for a period of over one year and have gfnal wrappings are intact and none knows what is inside. The bidding is open to all and the very uncertainty and the desire to get something for nothing fills the large room to over flowing.
