The Man Who Did Wrong.

mere was man who did great
wrong and all the people rose up in
wrath against him and sought to be
avenged, crying to Him who was King
amongst them, Lo he hath transgress-
ed and we want to see him get all
that cometh to him.
And the King was a good and just
King and hearkened unto the words
of his people. And he called his couH-
selors about him. Now by the three
red boards of my seventh grandsire,
this man must suffer, saith the King.
And the counselors wagged their
fheads in accord, all holding their jobs
thereby.
And it came to pass that the Man
who had sinned was led forth from
the walls of the city in a garb of sack
cloth and with gives upon his wrists.
And Io, they were met by one called
the Doer of Gentle Deeds and his
heart wept at the sight and he smote
his breast, crying, Why is this man
to be slain? He hath an honest look.
And the people answered him, say
ing, He ever sat in the street car
thrusting his feet forth in the aisle
so that many were muddled and
tripped thereon,
And the man replied, Stay him
cruelty and with all my heart. He
deserveth more!

SPECIAL CITY MEETING.
To Decide on Aotaorizina $3.5oo to Provide Pumping Outfit For Fire Truck.

Acting on a petition signed by many citizens of Putnam. the cor1rSen coun- cii has authorized the calling of special city meeting for next Tues day to see if the voters will author ize an appropriation Of 3s.500 to meet the cost of equipping the American LaF'rance automobife chemical truck with d pumping outfit that will throw 500 gallons of water a minute.
 This propositfon comes before the voters of the city following the de- stf7Iction of the Wheaton home on Oak Hill on a Sunday a few weeks ago the high elevation to successfully fight such fire. Subsequent tests have shown that all the property on the high ridges in that section, of the city are subject to the same destruc- tion as was Visited upon the Wheaton home. 50 to protect against such a disaster the proposition of ouvirg pump and thereby getting adequate ground of the city is to be put before the voters.
 There was proposition to equip the big motor truck with a pump at the time when the city authorized the purchase of the first piece of motor apparatus for the department, but 1t was tuFr,ed down at the time on ac- count Of the expense. The eXpenst now. in view Of the danger that the city faces is regarded .as merely other citizens.

 Putnam suff1asistS were delighted over the winning Of suffrage by the women of the great state of New York. Leaders in the suffrage move n1ent here regard the winning of New York as the first great essential vic tory to sweeping tiae> eastern states. which they expect will follow in New York's footsteps. !
 Winning of New England state is ri rarded as the next step that is likely to come in the country wide sweep of the suffrage movement, and many of the workers here are of the opinion that Connecticut will be that state.
