This announcement is of spe- ciaI interest. for the citizens who go to see the inspection will have their first opportunity of Inspecting the building since the remodeling was completed. The armory is now greatly improved in many ways and provides additional comfort for the members of the command.
 Among the many changes made in tho building was the tearing off of the old metal-covered roof and replacing it with one of a. different type. New rooms have been added to the interior new floors laid and shower baths in- stalled. The interior of the building is greatly improved. The company now has a larger membership than for several years past and will probably continue to grow. for the armOry now offers number of attractions suffi- cient to induce men to enlist.

No More Dry Wells.

Those who have been asking for rain have had their fill, it would seem in the copious amount with which this city has been favored in the past 24 hours The streets leading from the hill section to Main street have been like brooks, and it is safe to say that if there were any dry wells in the inn mediate neighborhood of Willimantic, they are so no longer. On lower Church street, at point where a trench had been dug a few weeks ago to reach a gas main. the water leaked through and flooded a portion of the basement of the Church-Reed oonn- pany's store. but the leakage was stop ped before any damage to the stock resulted.

 How Pennsylvania Settled the Deer
 Question.
 \ despatch from Williamsport, Pa.. to a New York Sunday paper relative to the finding of the carcass of a deer ands the disposition that was ordered made of it by the Pennsylvania State Fish and Game commission is of spe- cial interest here, because of the su- perior court case that has grown out of Attorney Charles L. Torrey's ac- tion in insisting that the county game warden had no authority to take from his possession tho carcass of Q dee- which he found in the highway near Putnam Heights a few weeks ago.
 In the Pennsylvania case the deer found was frozen in the ice covering a lake in the Pine Creek region. I1e finder a trapper, reported to the fish and game commission, which decided that the carcass was the property of the finder. How that decision would apply to a Connecticut case is, of course, a debatable question. fJr Penn sylvania is another state and mas laws different from those of this state. Blessing of Rain Appreciated.
 Somebody must have told the weatn- CT man that Putnam has been short on water for the past few months, so short that some of it's manufa curing concerns, as have others in nearby towns have been forced onto ShCrG time scheduleS-and made a hit with him, for Mondays contribution of rain l was ample in the fullest sense of that term. The city was saturated. from early Sunday evening until well into Monday night. The blessing of a heavy ! rain was greatly appreciated, and while the full benefits of the storm will not be realized until tomorrow prob ably, reservoirs and mill ponds were reported Monday night as tillinS rapid 1 ly. At dark Monday night the Nuine- baug river had reached the highest level i'll months past and 1t will prob ably be higher today.

 In the past Putnam people have paid up to $150 to see this show in this city, but they never saw it more ably i produced than on Monday, when. they ] paid 10 and 20 cents.
