SHORTENING HOURS
English Interests in Thread company's Plant Tinaid, Although There Are Many Orders on Hand.

The plant of the American Thread company, which has been on short time for 2 number of weeks, will not resume. full time as hoped, but on, the other hand, this week will see a fur ther reduction in the working hours.
 The manufacturing department goes upon a S2-haurs a week schedule, be- ginning Tuesday morning. The hours will be from 30 to F and from l to 4: 30 on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thurs days and Fridays. They have not been working Mondays and Saturdays for several weeks. The larger part of the finishing department will work 36 1-2 hours, putting in the same hours as the manufacturing department, but working Saturday mornings. The San Silk and printing departments will work A 1-2 hours.
 The reason is said to be that the English interests in charge of the plant do not care to take changes on con, fiscation or other troubles in foreign shipments, although tthe company has a lot of orders on hand. It is not ex- pected, however, that. the new short time will last for long, as conditions are generally better, and the demand exists for the company's output.

 The cost of cutting and harvesting the city ice amounted to $S,000.S5 and the city has received up to November 6, 1914, the sum of $2,T61-2U from the sale of the same. There arc two houses now filled with ice, most or which will be disposed of before the new crop is gathered. and the amount received from the sale of the same will prob ably make the total receipts greater than the original cost of harvestgni. The late spring and private competi- tion materially reduced the demand foi city ice. The people, how ever. have been furnuished with ice at lower cost to them than at any time during the existence of the city, and indirect ly the oity and it's inhabitants Paye all ready been greatly benefited by the installation of the ice plant.
 Streets
 At tho last annual city meeting the sum of $15.o00 was appropriated for streets: of that amount $l4.5J4.SS has been incurred for permanent street construction, and of the amount ex- pended for streets, $6,so3 98 only can and .repairs, the balance having been utilized for the construction of cul- verts, the laying of crosewalks, the flushing of storm sewers and block paving, taking care of snow storms and sanding sidewalks, and such other items as are incidentally chargeable to the street department. The block pavement on Main street while originally laid at considerable ! expense, has proven a great saving to the city in the matter of repairs as well as desirable for it's cleanliness and ! the substantial chars cter of it's con- Struction.
 Fire Department 4 The fire department is in excellent condition. The salary of it's members l has been increased, practically all of the improvements called for have been made and the members of the de- partment appear to appreciate the manner in which their requests have cen granted.
 Police Department l The police fund of this department i has been increased during the past year by the addition of the sum ot l $6a9.6s, making tlss total amount of the police fund at present $4,64S.51. The l excellent efficiency of this department has been fully maintained during the past year.
 ] Financial
 It is pleasing toa state that at the end of the fiscal year the net liabili- 1 ties of the city show a decrease ot l $1,11O.27 over that of the previous year. The present net liabilities are SIP, against $113,932.22 as shown N 1vember 1, 1913. The actual expense for maintaining ! thet several departments of the city | during the year last past amounted to SS4, 4,S94.69, which includes several items of unusual expenditure, the sum of

 The $5.000 issue of water bonds that became due October 1,1914, was re- tired. To do this. the sum of $3S, ,6f4.02 of the water bonds sinking fund was utilized, the sum of s4,SS5.9S being earnings of the water department dur ing the year was added tfereto, and the balance, $6,500, was borrowed for that purpose, which latter sum and indebtedness it is anticipated will be paid up during the ensuing year from the earnings of the water department.
 The present bonded indebtedness of the city consists of $75,000 water bonds due October 1,1924. $50,00O water bondsd due October 1,1929, $100,000 municipal bonds due October 1,1925, and $100o00 municipal bonds due Au- gust 1,1934.

The first jury case ever arranged to be tried before the Putnam city court and a civil action, too-;s assigned to be heard before Judge J. Harry Mann Nov. 16. The jury of six will be drawn tomorrow afternoon from the list of city jurors, for there is such list, though most of the citizens here may have forgotten the fact, their ap- pointInent being generally regarded even by those who do remember as merely a perfunctory proceeding in keeping with the provisions of the city charter. Those whose names appear In the list are liable for service, however, and a sufficient number of them to hear this case will be drawn in ac- cordance with law.
 The case to be heard is that of Jo- seph J. Burke Vs. Samuel Ankotol, Morris Fisher and Joseph Wolff, the plaintiff claiming damages against them in the sum of $76.08, an amount alleged due him for building a body for an automobile truck represented as being owned by the defendants. At torney Charles L. Torrey represents the plaintiff, Attorney J. F. Carpenter the defendants.
 Putnam's city court was established in 1896. Its functions have been ex- clusively devoted since that time to the disposition of criminal eases, and many offenders-petty and otherwise, SOluS oA them nuIueI CIT nave pScAi arraigned before it. A civil case has been almost unheard of there, a jury case never. The court has civil juris- diction, though, through provisions in the city charter, litigants having a right to appeal from any decision rem dered therein in a civil case involving more than S10O, on an error in law, direct to the supreme court of the state. In cases of sufficient impor- tance the charter provides for a jury of twelve, as in the superior court, but in an action of civil nature in- volving less than S100. as the one to be tried, the jury shall consist of six.
 During the coming trial the city court will be invested, in outward ap- pearance as well as otherwise, with much of the dignity that surrounds the higher courts, and the case to be heard will attract much more attention than otherwise would be the case.

 lection for Red Cross.

Fine success was achieved, under the auspices of Elizabeth Porter Put nam chapter, D. A. R., Saturday in their canvass for funds to be devoted to the aid of the European war suf- ferers through the American Red Cross. Tiny American flags were be- slowed upon contributors to the fund, which was solicited after the same manner as Tag day campaigns. Active workers in numbers visited homes, the mills, stores and various other places of activity, and found a generous spirit prevailing, gew neglecting to give something. Scouts met the trains at the station. The trolley cars were also kept under supervision by the canvassers, so few persons who ap- peared in town, even as transients, were overlooked in the getting of quar- ters and dimes, and smaller coins. About everyone was Tagged" at least once, and many persons wore a num-
