ZONE SYSTEM NOT TO
 AFFECT LOCAL FARES
When Put in Operation on Norwich
 Trolley Lines.

There was quite persistent rumor on Thursday that with the introduc- tion of the copper zone system of fares on the Norwich trolley lines, there was to be a. change in the local fares, but President Robert w, Perkins of the Shore Line Electric Railway com pany said on Thursday evening that this idea was an error.
 When the copper zone system is made applicable here, which will not be for some time yet, there will be no change in fares on the city line, meaning the Yantic line and the Taft vile. Beyond Taftville it will mean some change, but it win work, as it does in other places, for the benefit of the persons who ride varying short distances beyond the Taftville fare terminal As for instance there will probably be a cent rate to the Durr's S blacksmith shop stop and an cent rate to Occum Now passengers from Franklin square to either of these points pay 10 cents

Not Bell Alarm in the Ten Calls
 They Responded To.

Although the fire department made of November none of them were bell alarms and the total loss in the city, It is estimated, would not exceed $500. The department twice went outside the city limits in answer to calls for help, both these being for the fires ia Preston, where a number of cattle and a barn were burned.
 Most of the fire calls in the city were for trif1ing cases where there was not much hazard of a big fire, though there was one that had in it the elements of a bad fire if it had got a start when a cigarette smoker dropped his cigarette into a barrel of hay and other combustible material in the cellar of the City Lunch on the afternoon of Nov g.

pressed regret In the house OF lords
