been getting a few thousand ngerling
bass and trout each season for release
in local waters. fishermen in other
towns of the state. organized as clubs,
are getting millions of fry from the
state hatcheries. For example, in Ce-
dar Swamp lake, Wo1cott, in one
year, 100000 little bass were re-
leased.
Mr.. Morin's idea is to get the fish
ermen banded into a club. At an ex-
pense that might be no greater than
81 year millions of fish could be put
into the lakes and streams in Kill
ingly. Within a few years the fish
ing here would be so much better
than at the present time as to ridi-
Guile comparison. OF course, non-club
members could fish and get the fish
on equal terms with those who work
for the good results, but the cost to
each member would be SO small as to
more than offset that consideration.
The state officials will be more than
willing to work with the local men.
Mr.. NORM says he would be glad to
talk the matter over with everyone
interested; it is likely some action
toward the formation of a club will be
taken before long.

A SUMMER IN JAIL
Prospect for Daniel Maek-Onee Es'
capped From Brooklyn.

Daniel Mack, who has been employ
ed with one of the gangs working near
Webster. on the construction Of the
Grand Trunk railway extension, was
sentenced to served 80 days for hav-
ing been Intoxicated and 80 days for
doing injury to private property, upon
his presentation before Judge M. H.
Geissler in the city court Thursday
morning. His costs amounted to
about SIS, so he will be in Jail about
all summer.
Mack drifted in here to buy some
goods. He oiled up during his stay
and then got boisterous because he
couldn't get more stuff to drink at
Smiths place on South Main street.
Going outside he hurled a stone
through one Of the plate glass win
dows. He made a run for it, but was
captured in the railroad yards.
Mack is a character of special in
terest to the local police. Last win
ter he appeared here and made an
application to be returned to Brook
lyn Jail, from which he escaped he
said, while serving sentence i'm
posed upon him in the town court of
Killingly thirteen years ago. He was
accommodated and sent back to JAIL
from which he was released only a
few weeks ago. At the time he made
the request to be returned to Jail, he
gave his reason as wanting to get
papers which he left at the Jail, these
papers showing that he hadserved in
the United States army during the
SpaniSh-American war.

the subject and to get action upon it.
George S. Brown said Thursday that
he would be willing to put in some

greater than the cost of sprinkling
the street with water. It Is believed
that three applications Of oil would
be sufficient for a whole season one

near enough to that institution to en-
danger it, swept over several hundred
acres of land during the day and

had been wet down with water from
a nearby pond and other precautions
taken to protect the buildings. which
plan was aided by favorable change
in wind just at the opportune moment.
Boy Scouts and other high school

to take up the fight against the fire,
which spread with startling rapid

time over all the east side of Perrin

"Kindrcd was great friends with a
