FOXES, sKUNks STOLEN Trial of $1 .ooo Suit of Smith vs. Tracy for Alleged Thefts From Fur Farm

A jury was promptly selected for the case of Smith vs. Tracy. a civil action in which the plaintiff sues for 1000, alleging that the defendant was responsible for the theft of fox pelts and skunks taken from animals that kept at what is known as Rob's fur farm, at East Killingly, on the night of December 2O-21, 1915.
 The charge was denied by Attorney c. L. Torrey, counsel for Tracy. Smith is represented by Attorneys A. J. Bill and Harry E. Back.
 Henry H. Heath, resident at East Killingly, asked to be excused from service Ion the jury because he lives in the neighborhood of the fur farm and Alfred A. Ennis, Killingly, was cha1- lenged off the jury by Attorney Torrey.
 The jury as completed is as follows: Dwight E. Lyman, Eugene B. Hanna Windham; Roscoe H. Wright, Ash ford; Joseph F. Burton, Brooklyn; Willard F. Avery, Hampton; Caleb An- thony Scotland: Joseph Plessis, Put nam; William A. Johnson. George H. Munyan, Thompson; Chester E. May, John Perrin, Woodstock; George w. Fuller, Willis Covell, Pomfret.
 In the information the plaintiff claims that four Canadian foxes, each of a value of $20, and 15 skunks, each of a value of s5, were taken from the yards and houses at the fur farm on the night of December 20-21 last. The total value was fixed at $155, and tre- ble dama age-$456-is asked.

BROOKLYN FAIR
Tuesday Was Entry Day-Exhibits
 Promise to be Varied and Excellent

Tuesday was entry day for this years Brooklyn fair and all day long those who are to show the people of the county what has been done on the farms during the discouraging sum- ner season that is at it's close were busy all day long arranging exhibits that are of surprising interest to those who have a hankering to know about agricultural things.
 In the late afternoon of Tuesday there came over the roads that lead to the fair ground from the four points of the compass herds of cattle that are the pride of the county, and assem- bled in the long, low cattle sheds that made a fine and impressive sight, sug- gestive, possibly that a railroad strike would not leave this section as desti- ute of milk and cream and butter not to mention beef-as many com mpnities whose people live far away from nature feared they would be left to feel the privation of being cut off from the land of plenty.
 In the exhibition building and in the building of the ladies' department there were many hustlers at work.

Rev. c. H. Barber has resigned as pastor of the Westfeld Congrega- tiona1 church. The announcement is source of deep regret, not onlp to the members of the church and those who have been in the habit of attending service there. but as well for the com munity.
 During the eleven years that Rev. MT. Barber has been in his present pastorate he has always been held in the very highest regard by the mem bers of all denominations and the af- lection in which he is held is a trib- ute to his splendid fitness for his life work and the fairmindedness with which he has approached all of the many phases of church work and pub lie affairs with which he has been identified.
 The condition of Rev. MT Barber's health is the reason for his resigna- ton. He is slowly recovering from a serious illness of many months du- ration and it is expected that he will eventually regain his strength. but he feels unable for the present to carry the full burden of his pastorate, so has filed his resignation.
 His plans for the future are not de- finitely decided.
 That the resignation may be acted upon, there is to be a special church meeting at the prayer service hour to- morrow (Thursday) evening.

 There is more joy for Danie1son and its boosters in the announcement that the Connecticut Mills company has de- cided that the addition for which ex- cavating was commenced a few weeks ago and for which the foundations are now nearly completed is to be made of brick and four stories in height.
 The construction work is to be rush. ed with the greatest possible rapidity and the aim now is to have the struc- ture completed and ready to receive machinery by Dec. 1. Damase Boulais, who has the contract for the work, has advertised for 40 bricklayers and carpenters to add to the large force he now has engaged at Industrial place on mill and dwelling construction.
 The new addition with it's heating, plumbing and sprinkling systems, ex- elusive of machinery will cost in the neighborhood of $75,000. It will con- meet the two mills, making one plant nearly 800 feet in length.
 The new addition means a decided increase in production, more employees, greatly increased payrol1s. additional dwellings and all the other happy fea- lures attendant upon the growth of a plant that is pushing.

Towns like Putnam, Killingly and Windham, having municipal governments within their limits, will have to pay a larger proportion of the tax than the other towns. It is understood that the exact proportion for each town will be fig- ured out in the tax commissioners of- fee at Hartford and that it may amount to from one-quarter to one third of mill on the grand list of
