DANElSON

The carcass Of beautiful 10-point buck has been salvaged from the waters of Quinebaug lake, in which the animal drowned few days ago while attempting to make his way across on ice that was too frail to bear his weight
 A shadowy form showing through the ice first attracted attention the past week end and as the ice grew heavler an investigation was pos sible and established that the buck was floating on top of the water underneath the ice
 Deputy Game Warden F. B. Kies Of Danielson was notified and with other men went to the lake, secured a rowboa+ from near the pumping station at the southeriy end of the lake and with the boat as a safeguard against the entire crew breaking through the still rather light ice made their way out to the ea-- eass and eventually got it ashore
 The carcass was turned over to General ]. Walter Atwood, agent of the Waure- gan company asi a former member of the state fish and game commission The Wauregan company owns the land around the lake, the waters of which stretch over an area mile in length.
 It was on the easte-fy side of the lake about two-third of the way down from the north shore that tho buck broke through. The accident was not seen by anyone and it is believed that the buck had been in the water two or three days before being taken out

PUTNAM

Putnam is having an experience with suit clubs such as other towns and cit ies of the state have experienced dur ing the past few months. It appears that a suit club was formed here ear Her in the fall and nearly two score members obtained. The usual system of collecting so much each week from these club members was instituted and in due time club members began to re- ceive suits. At the present time there seems to be feeling of unrest and ap- prehension among the club members as to whether the venture on which they have engaged will continue successfully until each and every member has re- eeived his suit It is represented that no collections have been made here by suit club agents for fortnight
 The matter has been called to the at tention of representatives of the Cham Der of Commerce, but it was authorita- lively stated here Tuesday that the chamber will not officially concern t. self with the matter. An amusing point is that individuals who intended enter ing suit club protested to members of the chamber when formation of the club was being discussed against pros pective opposition to the club by the chamber. Now some of these same in dtviduaE are clamorlng for the cham Der to institute some action that it $ hoped will save them from any poss:- ble loss that might result from the suit club promoters failing to carry eut their agreement. It is a very lovely little situation.
 Clothing dealers here are entitled to broad grin or two over the discom- | fture of those who fear the suit club will not suit in the long run. The sit uation over which some of the club members are said to be doing consider able worrying becomes Of more or less general interest.
 An official of the chamber of com merce said Tuesday that should the SUI; club promoters fail to carry out thei1 agreement with the club members that action to force them to do so might be taken through invoking a federal stat

UNE DEAD, TWO
 OVERCOME BY GAS
 Special to The Bulletin)
 Putnam, Dec. 12.-Tuesday the body of Howard I. Botham was forwarded from undertaking rooms in Main street to his home in New Britain. Gotham died of asphyxfation Monday at farm where he had been employed in Dudley Mass. He was only IT years of age, but upwards of six feet in height and remarkably developed, facts that make his death by gas in a room in which a window was thrown wide open an un- usual occurrence, but due, a physician said to his having had a weak heart.
 The farm at which Botham has been employed is between Webster and Dud- ley and gas for the farmhouse is fed in from main running between those two places. When Bothaan retired Sunday night he left a window of his room open, but apparently did not fully shut off the gas. During the night Mrs. Es- terbrook. wife of the owner of the farm, was awakened by illness and upon aris- ing and starting for water tell to the floor unconscious. The crash awakened her husband and while hurrying to his wife's assistance he, too, fell to the floor in a sWoon. Both had been overcome by gas that had permeated the entirs house. MT. Esterhrook finally recover ing sufficiently to put in a call for a physician. Upon his arrival he found MT. and Mrs Esterbroek in quite seri- ous condition from gas poisoning, but they were revived. Botham, the phys clan found upon ascending to his room was dead, but a pulmotor was applied in the hope that there might be some small chance of resusicating him.
 Botham's body was taken charge hy local undertaking firm and brought tc this city and Tuesday afternoon wal sent to his home in New Britain.
