HUGH KELLEY MISSING.
River Drawn Low, as Suicide is Fear,

River Drawn Low, as Suicide is Feared
 Many GrosvenordaIe people, others from Wilsonville and other parts of the town of Thompson engaged Saturday afternoon in a search of the river in an endeavor to locate the body of Hugh Kelley, who disappeared during the very early hours of Thursday morn ing from the home of MT. and Mrs. James Welch, where he had been stay ing.
 Kelley had been in poor health for some time and had developed an ex- tremely nervous condition. It is be- lieved that he left the house wearing only his underclothing, a shirt and trousers. The fact that he removed money and other things of value from the pockets of his trousers led to the belief that he contemplated suicide More than a hundred men have been engaged at one time in the search for him, and numerous party remained out during all of Friday night, but without finding any trace of the miss ing man. That the river might be carefully searched, the water was drawn down as low as possible Saturday af- ternoon while the mills were stopped.

TEACHERS APPOINTED.
List as Arranged to Date-Vacancies to
 Be FiIIed-PossibIe School at County
 Home.

Nearly all the teachers who are to teach in the public schools of Putnam have returned their contracts for the 1915-16 school year. Among the places to be filled are the principalship of the high school Principal John Backus having resigned to go to Manchester; French and German teacher, to replace Miss Crescentia Beck of the high school faculty, resigned; kindergarten teacher in the Israel Putnam school, to replace Miss Edna M. Surpless, re- signed; a vacancy at the Smith street school, one in the Sawyer district and another at East Putnam. George T. Challoner and Everett D. Packard of the high school faculty are engaged under contracts which do not expire until Sept l, and which, it is expected, will be renewed.
 There is a probability that the Saw yer district school may, be discontin- ued after the present school year. Only @ few of the many pupils who attend there come from outside the Windham county temporary home for children. About nine-tenths of the total registra- tion in that school is from the county home. Members of the town school committee will confer with the county commissioners relative to a plan to have school at the home, which is within the limits of the town of Put nam, the few other children to be transported each school day to the Israel Putnam school, a plan that would mean a considerable saving to the town.
 The list of teachers so far engaged and their salaries for the coming school year is as follows:
 High school-Miss Abbie H. Keith, s850; Inez Bowler, $S50; Miss Louise Cushman, $500; Miss Mildred P. Pierce, $700, advance from $650.
 Israel Putnam school-Hermau F. Briggs, $500, advance from $7O0; M Etta Whiting, $500; Carrie B. Cas- coigne. $500; Emma J. Dutton, $500; Sara J. Burnett, $500; Gertrude L. Hall, $500; Jennie c. Johnson, $500; M. Bar bara Foxe, $500.
 Smith street school-Ruth F. F. FL liott $500; Clara A. Burril1, $500.
 Sawyer sditrict-Bertha O. White.
 Gary district-Grace L. Sumner, $3S0.
 Putnam Heights-Mildred K. Durfee, $41S.
 Consolidated eighth grade-Edith M. Kent, $635, advance from $500.
 Music-Caroline c. Lyman, $45S
 The school committee has arranged to have the consolidated eighth grade at the high school building, remain in session 40 weeks next year, instead of 3S, as has been the rule. This accounts for the advance in the teachers salary there

New Ronue Court.

The four roque courts in process of construction at Recreation park are coming along nicely. The borders, of reinforced concrete construction, are out of the forms, and will be ready to play on as soon as the grounds are in shape. A coating of 1oam has been put on all four grounds, and they will soon be ready for the wickets. The balls, which are of the usual hard rubber, have been ordered and mal- lets are geing made by the company in their shops.
 The four grounds are located just east of the mems dressing rooms near the river bank, two on the level with the ground in that locality and the other two stepped down slightly, to take advantage of the lay of the land, without too expensive cutting and fill- ing. The four grounds will be ready for play, it is hoped, in few weeks, and will not suffer in comparison with any in this vicinity when finally pre- pared.
