EMERALDs WON FAST GAME.
Took the Measure of Co.,. of Man.
 chester in Basketball,

In fast and well played game on Friday night, in the Valley Street ar mory, the9 Emeralds took the measure of the crack Co. G basketball team of Manchester, and pushed themselves up on the road for the championship hon. ors, as the Manchester quintette only last week defeated last years state champions on their own floor in Mid dletown.
 Company G started off in the lead, the score standing s to a few min utes after the first half started but the local five, playing the game of their lives, outlasted the visitors, and closed the half F to 10 with their op- ponents tiring.
 In the second half the Emeralds ob- tained a substantial lead, but in the last few minutes Madden slipped through the lines for three tries, bringing Co. c within one basket of q tie score. For the last minute and ahalf the local boys successfully block ed their opponents and the whistle blew with a two point lead in their favor
 The shooting of Russell and Madden featured the game, which was an ex- ceptionally exciting one, and every man on the local five deserves great credit for the victory

 The tax list of the town. of Wind haelzas as -eenap1eteda 4yA-tAe board of assessors pr. F. E. Wilcox, James P.
 Mustard and JOCK Pickett. shows the sTand total of taxable property in the town for 1914 tt5 be $14,401, ,g2S, an in- crease over last years figures of $150,- ITS. The figures would have been larger. but for the fact that many of the holders of; stocks and bonds filed their returns with the state. a4vailing themselves thereby of the lower rate of taxation. The big gain during the year was nadine in the west division of the resident list, -but the increase does not appear in the totals as the property of the Cui1nick Windham company was transferred from the resident to the nonresident lists. The total amount of the list will no doubt be reduced by the board of relief, which goes into session on the first of February. Last year their reduc- tioz1s amounted to about $54,0o0. The total number of separate lists put in this year was 2,091, of which 1873 were resident. and 21S nonresident.

STOLEN SUIT CASE FOUND.
Packed With Goods Taken from the
 MiIot & Williams Store.

Four suit eases filled with goods stolen from the store of Milot & Will Hams by burglars that entered the place during Tuesday night have been recovered. As a matter of fact, they were recovered during Wednesday, but the fact was not released by the press in the hope that the suppression for the time being of the find would help in bringing about the arrest of the crooks. It didn't help, however.
 During Wednesday, the day after the break, section men working in the To- cal railroad yards had occa sion to go to the handcar house near the tracks and in the vicinity of the high school baseball grounds to get some material that vas wanted. This material is kept under the carhouse which is set up a bit above the ground. Looking under the little building. the section hand discovered the cases stolen the night before from the store mentioned. The cases. packed with goods taken, were turned over to the police. A watch was set Wednesday and Thursday nights in the hope that the thieves would come after their booty, but they evidently learned that the hiding place of the goods had been discovered and kept away.

First Issue Of New EpiseopaIian Pub
 Iication Out.

The first copies of the initial is sue of the Qulrebaug Churchnan, a monthly publication devoted to the in terests of the Episcopal churches be- low Putnam in the Quinebaug valley. made their appearance Friday. The new periodical is edited by Rev. James H. George, Jr., pastor of St. Alban's church here and in charge. of St. PauIs at Plainfield.
 In his foreBord, Rev. MT. George, 8 writer of grace and facility, says in part: No apology is offered for the name wherewith the apeper Is christined There are, il is true, other parishes in the Quineoaug valley besides St. Alban's and St. Pauls, just as there are other Americans besides the in- habitants of the United States. In like manner, there are plenty of Christians who belong to the univer- sal church of Christ who are not members of the Episcopal church. But the word ''Churchnan" has al- ways been used to distinguish ad- English speaking peoples from their brethren. Only the explanation is made that tine title does not indicate an offensive spirit, and it is hoped that It will not limit iSs usefulness. It Is hoped that eventually it may prove a bond of unity for ali Episcopalians be- tween Putnam and Norwich, the Con- neottcut line and Wiilimantic, and that all interested in the work in thIs particular region will Fead 1t with interest. And moreover while 1t Is an aVowed organ of the Episcopal church, 1t Is hoped that there will be enough of general interest to make 1t welcome in any Christian home.
 The first edition is ! niine of ih- formation and interest for all Episco- palians in this section. It contains many articles on religious subjects, a5 3ta NEoK, 1t deals especially. lists of church and church society officials and discus siens of numerous matters Of church interest,
