PROPOSES TO START NEW INDUSTRY
Business Mems Committee Investigate James D. Robert
 sons Plan-Old Ossawan Mill Building Suggested For Location-To Manufacture Electrical Work Speciates.

Tn the rooms of the Norwich Busi- ness Mems association in the shannon building members of the New Indus tries committee met on Thursday aft ernoon at 3.S0 o'clock to consider the possibility of starting new industry which is proposed by James D. Robert son. Chairman Frank H. Smith pre- sided, the members of tn ecommittee being A. E. Wulf, Mayor T. c. Murphy, ID. c. Jewett, w. T. Lane, W. F. Hill, D T. Shea, George w. Carroll, c. V. Pendleton, W. A. Somers, s. J. Colt, James A. Hiscox and c. J. Isbister.
 The committee meeting resulted in the appointment of a special commit tee consisting of c. V. Pendleton, D. T. Shea and James A. Hiscox, to investi- gate the matter and report at later meeting.
 MT. Robertson was invited to the meeting and was asked to explain what was proposed. He explained that he had plan to start an industry here for the manufacture of electric ma chinery fittings, beginning with a spark plug and terminal clip, and ca pablo of development in the manu- facture of various other parts for cleo the building on Broad street formerly occupied by the Ossawan mill and the new industry, if started, could be ac- commodated on the main floor and the floor below, not using the second floor of the building. Electric power would be used and he could be shipping the

BILL INTERESTS TEACHERS.
Bill Drawn Providing for Annual Meet
 ings in Four Places.

School teachers are greatly interest ed in bill drawn by Supt. Charles B. Jennings of New London, which pro- vides that on and after 1915 the an nual meeting of the Connecticut State Teachers association shall be held simultaneously in four places, two of tic, or Waterbury, or Norwall1, or New London or Norwich, or Williman- Danbury.
 The change is proposed for several reasons. Many teachers in north, east and western parts of the state do not and cannot attend the meetings of the association. They cannot arrive in time and would be obliged to leave before the close of the session. It would afford teachers in new places mentioned an opportunity to attend the convention for a moderate sum, whereas it now costs them from $3 to $5. It would please the smaller cities to have the convention meet with them and would, it is believed, be of great advantage to the cause of education if the distinguished speakers that have appeared before the convention could present to them the advanced ideas of education that have been heard at Hartford and New Haven Another argument set forth is that it seems unfair that the well-paid teachers of Hartford and New Haven should have the advantages of the convention ev- cry year for 25 cents, while all other teachers must pay from $2 to $5 for the same privilege.

PREPARING TO BUILD
 BRIDGE ACROSS THE THAMES. New Haven Road Will Have to Put in
 New Trestle at Winthrop Cove.

Work preliminary to the construc- ton of the new railroad bridge over the Thames river has been com menced by the New York, New Ha- the exception of the test borings which have been going on for some time by the T. A. Scott Co, the pres ent operations are the first tangible evidence of the nearness of the bridge building. The job that is now under way is the clearing up of the side tracks near Hallam street, in New Lon don, and the Winthrop Cove trestle in order to permit the relaying of the main lines, which will be required by the new location of the bridge.
 In connection with the construction of the new bridge it will become nec- essary to abandon the present trestle of market benefit in the operation of trains, the present sharp curve at the trstle being an unfavorable element with which an eSgine has to contend in addition to the bridge ahead and the formidable grade.
 The new treStle over Winthrop cove will be south of the present one. The main lines of track will be laid where the sidings were to the east of the present through tracks. There will be a long gradual curve of trackage from a point south of Hallam street CO 0IiS IT6Sti0 dI1u D0yOnu to the new bridge entrance, which will be to the north of the old one. In this manner an easy turn is obtained in place of the short and abrupt one now in use. As minutes and seconds. even, have definite monetary value to a, railroad company, the alterations planned will be distinctly an economical outlay.
 The changes in the EallaIn street yard at this time simply serve to bear out the statement made by President J. H. Hustfs of the New Haven road in a recent interview, in which he as- sured the public that the building of the bridge would be carried out with out delay notwithstanding rumors to the contrary. President Hustis sold then that the Scott Co. had completed about 50 per cent of its borfngs and that it would be necessary to wait until all were finished before the best location for the bridge piers could be determined. The Scott Co. has made excellent progress since then. and in view of the present activity in the Winthrop Cove section it is not at all unreasonable to assume that con struction work is near at hand. A person closely in touch with New Ha- ven road affairs stated Thursday that he expected to see the bridge underway in the spring.

FOUNDER AND FIRST
 PROPRIETOR OF COLCHESTER.
toricaI Address Upon Jeremy | Adams.


 In q paper read this week before the Connecticut Historical society Dr. Ar thur B. Adams, professor of English at Trinity college, Hartford, gave much thatJwas of historical value up- on the subject. Jeremy Adams and His Descendants. He said in part:
 Jeremy Adams chief claim to re- mernbrance. perhaps, Is the fact that he wa ga member of the immortal Hooker company, and so a founder of Hartford One of the first things Jeremy did after settling in Hartford was to marry, though the date of that important event cannot be deter mined with certainty. The lady of his choice was Rebecca, widow of Samuel Greenhill, another of the orig inal proprietors, and the mother of two children.
 holding what was then an important public office, that of constable. In this capacity he was both an officer of the court executing warrants, etc, and the assessor and tax collector of the town. He had charge of the watch and ward, and fulfilled many other functions.
 Founder of Colchester.
 Under date of March s1. 1861, we find the record of a grant of 300 acres of upland and forty acres of meadow in the piece where he kept cattle last winter, going to Mohegin, and in case there be plantation there settled, he is to have double portion according to his estate out of the land that Jeremy Adams is the founder and first proprietor of Colchester.
 Had a Monopoly.
 Tn May, 1860, the general court voted that mo person in Hartford ex- cept Jer. Adams shall sell wines un- der quart cask no liquors and under date of May 15, 1862. the court voted that ye house that the said Jer. doth now possess and improve for an ordinary, or house of common entertainment, shall be and remaine for the same end and use and occu- patton for the future, both to ye said Jeremiah and his successors" There fore, so far as I know, Jeremy Ad- ans was the first innkeeper in Hartford. We may judge from the legislation on the subject that the post of keeper of the Ordinary" was & dignified one, in fact it was a pub lie office, and was usually held in colonial times by persons of good so- cial position. The fact that Jeremy Adams was an agent of the general court and that the inn" was, in eff feet, a, colonial enterprise has not been fully recognized.
 III NdSS lOOO, 1nc genera dl COulI 0S- tablished Jeremy as customs master for Hartford. This was an honor able and somewhat important office, for trade was far from being free be- tween the towns and colonies, and in 1864 the court freed him from keeping watch and ward" he be- ing 60 years of age. This estab- fishes the approximate date of Jere- ny's birth Jeremy Adams died Au- gust II. 1883. and his inventory to- tailed PAS pounds, shitings and six pence.
 Painting of Bliss House.
 A small painting of the old Bliss house, which stood northeast of the Memorial arch in Bushnell park, Hart ford, sixty years or more ago, was re- ceived by the society as a gift from Miss Charlotte Tyler of Hartford, granddaughter of Isaac Bliss, who owned the house.
