Fifty years ago this week in Nor wich was a rather peaceful and har- monious one although an aged Put nam man was brought before the court on the charge of appropr1at1ng cnlck- ems that were not his. Delegates were elected to the Union state con- vention ;n aHrtford and the New Lon don Baptist Association convened here. Following are extracts from the Bull letin files of 1864.
 Mcclellan Flag Fell.
 Monday, Sept. F, 1s64-The Me Ciellan-Pendleton flag hung out in front of the Aurora office came to grief and mud on Saturday, pulling down a chimney in its fall. Whether it broke down from the fact that Me- C1ellan's letter was too much of strain on it or some other cause we can't say. AS the rebs say of the fall of Atlanta, It's of no sort of conse- quence."
 An aged man haling from Putnam with five chickens whose united ages were not half so much as his own ap- peared in the Wauregan Sunday even ing with a proposition for the sale of the poultry. Failing to sell the poul- try he went to hesWatch house. Any body in Norwich Town who has miss ed chickens will do the Putnam gen. tleman and public justice a great fav- or by appearing at the police court room this morning and proving pro- perty. He was willing to sell them for a dollar and a. quarter. The owp- CT can have them for nothing. Our old friend Smith of New Lon- don. he that keeps the market near the depot, reminded us of his exhibition the other day in the shape of a bunch of those nice little blue bellied mack erel that occur to a good appetite so much like the the shadow of a great rock in weary land.," We only wait now another reminder in the shape of some solf shelled crabs to think-well no matter what-Wait till he sendS them.

STEAMER DOLLAR CAN
 COME NORTH SOON,
Can Leave Brazil When Registry Is Changed from British to American,

Washington despatciaes state that the British government has not opposed the transfer of steamship Robert Dol lar from British to American registry. Clearance papers have been refused by the Brazilian government for the de- parture of the Dollar from Rio De Janeiro for New London. The excuse given was that the British minister to Brazil had withheld his consent to the transfer.
 The state department and the British embassy at Washington took up the matter and learned that no opposition had been offered to the registering of the Robert Dollar. It is believed that once the British minister in Brazil has made his position clear, the Dollar will be permitted to poreeed,
 The Dollar bears a record shipment of lumber which is consigned to Toron- to for haT'bor improvements. The ium- ber will be discharged at New London and freighted to Toronto,

Horse Ran Away.

About 9.30 Friday morning horse owned by a man by the name of St. Onge ran away and caused much ex- citement while 1t was on it's wild rampage, Mir. St. Onge had left the horse and wagon in front of the Peo- ple's store and was inside talking with one of the clerks when the animal all of a sudden started off on dead run down Providence street headed for Cow hill. When in front of the post office the wagon skidded and hit a tel ephone pole and turned over, the horse freed itself from the wagon and start ed at a terrific pace and was not stopped until it reached the rolling pin mills. On reaching here the animal was somewhat tired out and Nathan Bushnell succeeded in capturing 1t. Il is a mystery as to what scared the horse. The wagon was quite badly damaged and the horse got a small cut on the leg.

 While he was walking toward his home about 5 o'clock. Principal Ham mond states that MT. Wheeler drove up behind him and struck me twice with the horsewhip" and then made considerable talk. With Mfr. Wheeler, says the teacher, were F. J. Brainard of Brainard Island and another man.

Not only that, but he tried to make the two brothers punch each other. He grabbed the older by the arm and twisted it so that 1t was sprained and he cannot use 1t today.'' Mir.

THE AUDITORIUM.

z Incredible as 1t may seem, Sig. An- thony Novelli, the famous Italian ac- tor who has taken the principal role in the majority of the Chimes photo dramas produced by George Kleine, has become quite a matinee idol in this country. Managers of the theatres in which Quo Vadis, and Antony and Cleopatra, were presented declare that .t Is not frequently that women call at the office and ask if it is possible to secure a photograph of the handsome Italian actor. In most cases they are referred to the Kleine headquarters in New York and Chicago, which are overwhelmed with similar requests.
 In the first two stupendous photo dramas in which Noveli was starred he appeared in the role of a Roman patrician soldier; but in For Napoleon and France George I[leine's latest photo dramatic success, he demon strates his versatility by acQuitting himself with credit as young cap tain of the army of France. Novelli is still more fascinating to the fair sex in the modern role of a courageous young lieutenant in Between Savage and Tiger
