A Predicament.

1t was the night of nights. Isabella
had said yes" lsabella's father had
said 'yes." and Isabella's "young man"
was happy. So was Isabella.
Minutes licked away as they sat
hand-in-hand, not caring for coDver
sation, blissfully content to sit and
sit and sit in each others proximity.
But suddenly Isabella's young man
grew restless. He began to twitch and
pull fearsome faces. His facial con-
tortiOns got worse and worse, till at
last Isabella got scared and cried:
"What is 1t, beloved? Tell your Isa-

There are no children In this house

small dog, a lively little terrier. This
dog, as he is not permitted to assO-

has playthings of different kinds. much

bought for small boys and girls, says
the Indianapolis News.
The other day a new maid came into
the house. She was tidying up the liv-
ing room, and when drawing her broom

some carpenters were at work.
There's some kind of beast in
there" she said, land I'm scared al
most to death.
A gallant young carpenter offered to

He armed himself with strip OF
scantling and went in.
A moment later he was heard tc

The gallant young carpenter hac
been so fortunate as to cover the beast
with the board and was standing on
the scantling. When he had stood Cd
it for five minutes and thought life
must certainly be extinct, he stepped
off and removed the board
As he did so there was a strange
noise from the animal which jumped
at the carpenter, who ran out to gel
assistance. By this time the mistress
of the house had returned with the
dog

"what on earth is the matter? Why
all this excitement? Before the ques.

The recruit was having his first turn
on sentry duty.
"Now, remember your salutes,'' the
corporal warned him. IF you see q

arms. For captain with three stars
slope arms also. The major has a
crown on his straps, and you present

and q crown, you present arms and
then turn out the guard"
When he was left alone the recruit
went over these orders again and
again.
Suddenly his musing was interrupted
BY the approach Of an officer. Thie
was general, and the recruit did moi
know what to do for him.
"An' what might you be?' he asked

 Frank O. Davis, Pomfret. and Da v1d Beausorel, member of the com mon council, gave their opinion that the Franklin property was worth $2- 900 with the fence up; that before the fence was put up it was worth $2.5OO. They figured the damage due to lack Of as much light, air and other con Ven1ences as formerly.
 Arthur c. Stetson thought the price or the property had been depreciated $5OO on account of the fence
 MT. Bennor was the first witness Tor the defence. He said he had erect Cd the fence to protect his hens and fruit. The wire netting formerly there had become poor. He denied a conversation that he was accredited with having had with George Taylor On cross examination, he admitted that he had not spoken to the Frank lins for three years. He admitted that the boards of which he built the fence came from old tenement floors and old outhouSeS. He knew 1t would be in convenient to his neighbors, but did not know that it would injure or an- noy them.
 As to building the fence higher, he said he did that after a sign had been put up on the Franklin side reading 'U Bennor built this fence": he made the fence high enough so he couldn't see the sign.

SPITE FENCE CASE
 ON TRIAL TUESDAY
Ira L. Franklin Claims Property Dam aged by Fence, Erected by Uzam Bennor.

In the superior court here Tuesday Judge NJ. A. Shumway heard the suit of Ida l.. Franklin Vs. Uzam Bennor both plaintiff and defendant of this city.
 The action results from the erection of rough board fence by the defend ant on land adjoining that of the plaintiff, who claims damages of $500, and asks for a mandatory injunction that the fence be removed: in case the fence cannot be removed, s1,000 damages is asked
 The fence was erected in Septem- Der 1915, after the plaintiff had mo- tified the defendant to keep his hens off the Franklin property.
 Immediately after the case had been opened and it's nature explained to the court an adjournment was taken, that those in the case might visit the properties and view the fence.
 Mrs. Franklin was the first witness when the trial was resumed. She told of the erection of the original part of the fence and of the additions that were made to it in the following No- vember and December. She told of the defendant bringing old boards and ru bbish and piling them up near the Franklin property line. Last April, she said. Bennor added boards to the boards to the top of the fence to make it higher and when she asked him what he was going to do with the fence, she testified, he said he was going to will it to her.
 Mrs. Franklin testified that Ben nor's hens had walked her as early as 3.30 a. m., coming under her win dowS.

 Confident of Towns Rapid Growth.
 W. Irving Bullard's forecast of Kill lingly with a population of 16,0O0 peo- pie by 1922-only five years hence has aroused surprising interest in many quarters of the town, and i'm bued many citizens with exceptional optimism over Killingly's future. Ac- tivities now underway will give the population a big boost toward the fig ure named. during 1917. These visf- ble signs of what is coming have given birth to confidence in places where it has been lacking in the past and will result, it is already indicated, in the development of various little business enterprises that have been waiting on some such development such as the tire fabric industry has afforded.
