The dedicatory exercises and formal opening of the new church house of the First Congregational church of Willimantic. long looked forward to by the members of the church and of the various societies and clubs con- nected with it, all of which will have rooms devoted to their use in the spa cious and commodious building. took place Wednesday evening.
 Previous to the exercises the Ladies Society of the church served an ex- cellent supper in the main assembly room of the church house, which was enjoyed by about 300 people,
 The dedicatory exercises began at o'clock with the assembly room fill- ed to overfiowing. Rev. William s. Beard in his foreword welcomed the large number present and spoke of the church house as the realization or a dream and one which seemed almost like a dream still. He spoke some thing of the history of the inception of the work. from the first gift by the K. K. club to the gift of $5s000 by Mrs Holland and the raising of the balance of the sum necessary. This church house is for the service of the entire female population of Williman- tic in it's athletic equipment. At the present time there are 100 enrolled and its capacities are already out grown.

 Farmers Want Line.
 In an interview MT. Baldwin told of the interest that the farmers in Wood stock and EaStford and ali through that section are taking in the propo- sition to give them railroad service. MT. Baldwin says that he has already been offered a sufficient number of ties. in exchange for stock of the pro- posed corporation, to more than meet the demands for ties along the whole route. The farmers are extremely anxious to get a line up through country that they are certain would develop 100 per cent. faster with such an accommodation and would also provide them with facilities for profit ably disposing of lumber that cannot be hauled out now without sacrificing much of its value by increasing the cost of transportation over what they think it should be.

 G. N. Baldwin was named as per manent chairman of the temporary or as clerk. Sherin John O. Fox. George E.. Shaw, J. F. Carpenter C. F. Per rin and A. M. Bowen were named as a committee to secure articles of in corporation.

 Important Freight Tonnage. He told those present that he had been surprised when looking into the matter to find that one-fifth of the freight tonnage that comes into Put nam for local and sub-local distribu- ton goes into the territory that would be served by the proposed road. MT. Baldwin also called attention to the fact that the freight received here
 does not represent all that coms by rail to freight stations other than the one in Putnam. Southbridge, Quine- I baug and Webster, to some extent. are other stations where goods are re- ceived for persons who live in the various sections of Woodstock and other towns that would be served by the road that is being talked of. Other Sources of Revenue. Other sources of revenue for the road mentioned by Mir Baldwin in cluded United States mail contracts. estimated to be worth s5.o00 a year; milk shipments, which are heavy from the agricultural country through which the road would pass; lumber. of which there is great quantity in the tier of towns in the northeastern sec

ciean-Up Committee Hampered b,
 Bad Weather.

Rain has come again this week to interfere more or less with the work of the cleanup committee and their helpers. A great deal of work has been accomplished, however, and a great change effected in many unsight- ly spots about the city.
 Many places which should have re- ceived attention, nevertheless. have remained as before and at the next meeting of the committee. some meth cd of reaching those who are not touched by civic pride will be talked over. Whether the result will be the photographing of those places, and publication of the photographs, and the names of the owners, or whether some other method will be pursued, has not been definitely decided as yet.
