 Putnam seems due to face hard coal shortage throughout the winter, not to mention the prospect of a soft coal famine. Some hard coal is com
 ing into the city, but not enough to fill orders that nave been filed here for months, it was stated by one dealer on Monday. This particular firm is not booking any additional orders at present, deveting its energies to get ting enough coal to fill orders already on hand.
 Thompson, too, is short of coal. A dAaler up there has no coal on hand, but, it is understood, has been offered shipments if he. is willing to pay a premium of $1.75 per ton.
 The Putnam Light and Power com pany is one concern that will not have to worry much aobut coal this winter. for it's power producing plant at Mechanicsvilie is now equipped with oil burning boilers, so if the trains keep running this variety of fuel should come through.

 Sunday and Monday were bad days, as to accidents for automobiiists in towns in this section. There was a
 
 Kulingly avenue. In Pomfret another pair of ears came together. On the Chepachet road a Buick touring car was smashed when another machine skidded into it, and on the same road big motor truck came. to grief. All persons concerned in the accidents escaped without serious injuries, and all of them are reticant in talking about the wreelAs, preferEinE to es- cape publicity.

 Time eespensstee for losses as re- gards life as well as other things, it appears. If Rutnam continues to en- joy as good fortune during the re- | nainder of October as it has in the l days of the month that have passed, l! It's death rate will be unusually low l l6nfUru Reu Roor1 ct,,l;o<J
