PUTNAM

Tomorrow Saturday is going to be |
a bad day for delinquent taxpayers who |
have not squared accounts with the city. |
All kinds Of warnings having failed !
Captain Remi Delage will start out on
their trail tomorrow, armed with papers
in civil actions that are to be instituted
against them, and when they pay there
will be the extra costs of the legal ac-
lions added and the bills will be much
heavier than otherwise would have been
the case. And they are going to pay, as
surance is given Of that.
The new common council recently gave
authority to Tax Collector Archibald
Macdonald to bring suit against the de-
linquents and he is now ready to go forl
ward with the work. Captain Delage will
assist him in details Of the work
An interesting claim has recently been
set up, it was stated Thursday, that
tracks Of the Connecticut Company at
one point on Park street are on land
owned by Dumas and Bull.
The locality involved in the claim is
at a point near the sub-station on Park
street, where the tracks swing around a
curve that cuts into land where there
| is a gravel bank.
| The tracks have been where they are
| now for years. and no suggestion previ-
| ously was heard as to their not being
there rightly. The Connecticut Company
| has deeds giving it right away through
| the place where the tracks are. yet the
| owners of the property, formerly land
! owned by Iscah Keech, say theat their
deeds cover the ground where the tracks
| are.
| A representative of the Connecticut
Company was in this city Thursday to
discuss the matter.
A considerable part Of the ice and
| snow that has chung to the streets and
sidewalks of this city for the past ten
days disappeared under a heavy fog
that prevailed all day Thursday. In the
business section parts of streets are now
free of ice. but in outlying sections Of the
city conditions. are not so much improv-
ed.
