NICKEL WORKS MOVING 10 NEW YORK

business reasons that ths transfer is to be made now. One of the reasons given by Mir. Tracy was labor condi- tions here. The lure of iaish wages in munitions manufactures here has made it hard to keep help and there has been gradual cutting down of the number of men employed in the Norwich factory for the last few months The normal number employ ed is about 4G or 50 but they have been growing less lately.
 Since 1885 the Norwich Nickel & Brass company, which before that was only in the nickel plating business. en- tered the display fixtures field and has been leader ever since and has en- ioyed continuous prosperity.
 It will be with regret that it is learned that Norwich is to lost this industry, which had pursued a con- sistently pronerous career under the management of local men and capital It's annual rayroll amounted to from s3o0G0 to $4eo0O and will be loss that will be felt in the citF
 It has not yet been definitely de termined it is stated whether the en- ployes here will go to New York though all will have that opportunity if they care to do so. The Norwich plant will. be moved into the factory on West 3sth street

LIEUT.. T. L. ToBiN FILLS
 FRlScc'Ss PENNY BOTTLES

. In San Francisco they have started a scheme of Penny Bottles, the con- tributions going to help feed the Bel glan babies. A paper of that city had special writeup recently of the big success this plan had proved at the city prison, which institution is in charge of Lieut.. T. l.. Tobin, whose wife was Miss Nellie Shugruc of Nor wich.
 Mention is made of the fact that the first two bottles returned filled con tained $56.0s and $79.19, respectively. The third yielded $157.55 and the fourth $11S.30.
 The paper explains the method as follows:
 Every morning when the drunks of tine night before, file out in properly chastened spirit Lieut. Tobin and his associates call attention to the Penny Bottle, and
 It isn't a penny the Morning After person puts in but a good big green back, or an iron man, or, if the bottles he had the night before took all his ready, check; and, just to prove this is democracy, the officers on duty poke something through the slot on pay day, and visitors (being steered against the Penny Bottle and told the story) see their duty and do it also. Ten dollar bills have gone in-one from the over exhilarated gentleman that was brought in with $500 he had not blown yet; a s5 check from the man who had money in bank but not enough on. his person to get a morn l ing bracer; something from everyone 1 except the women-the women not be- l ing invited to contribute because 2 Lieut.. Tobin says, those that come here have hard enough time as it is.'
 And the best of it is-it's all given l willingly and heartily.
