 Friends in this territory learn with regret of the death at Windsor Locks of Mrs Edward Gallagher, formerly of i Central Village, Mrs. Gallagher died Tuesday of this week, following a surgi-4 cal operation Mrs Gallagher had been | in poor health for a long time and was a patient in a worcester hospital for weeks nearly a year ago. She leaves l her husband and two daughters. Mir. Gallagher was with the Farnsworth- Pinney company at Central Village be fore removing to Windsor Locks a few months ago, and prominent in the so- cial and political life of the town of | Plainfeld
 Excav ations are going on in Center street in connection with the plan to extend a 6-inch gas main through that | thoroughfare, replacing small main now furnishing service to that street and points beyond.
 It was announced Thursday by Treas urer Clifford H. Starkweather, of The Danielson Trust company that the de- posits in it's savings department, started | in November of last year, had with the 1 opening of August passed the $200,00o mark, another proof that the people of Danielson and vicinity are still able to lay by something for a rainy day not | withstanding the constant cry of adverse business conditions and what not. Near ly a quarter of a million dollars in saw ings gathered in nine months by one of Danielson's banks is not so bad, and does not speak of diversity for this community or others hereabouts.
 thursday the flag on the central ofice building of the Southern New England Telephone company here was placed at , half-mast in respect to the memory of the inventor of the telephone, Alexan- , der Graham Bell. whose death was an nounced in Thursday mornings papers. After a Iay-off of more than two years, the General Putnam steamer, a fixture in the fire department for the past A years. demonstrated that it con- tinues to be capable of being a big as- set in fighting fire in case in emergency calling for its use occurs. While it may not match the modern motor driven bumper in efficiency, it really remains a very valuable piece of apparatus. Chief A. P. Woodward declared him self well satisfied on Thursday with the F test given the big machine Wednesday s night, when it was run for nearly 45 minutes, forcing two powerful streams
 
 lines of hose 500 feet in length. It was also demonstrated that the mo- e tor that hauls the hook and ladder out : fit is capable of hauling the steamer al Q least about the central portions of the : borough, where it is most apt to be q needed in case of emergency, and that esta ablishes the fact that the fire depart : ment is now entirely independent oi horses in getting all of it's apparatus tc fires. There is satisfaction in this, for it will be recalled. there have been times since horses became fewer about the borough when it has been difficult to get the necessary number to make quick response to alarms.

 Next Monday evening brings the ad | journed annual borough meeting a :, which, among other things, those wh, | attend will decide what the tax rat shall be for the ensuing year.
