COUPLE WEDS AFTER
 72 HOUR COURTSHIP
Miss Bogardus Gains Parental Consent and Marries Dewey
 TetreauIt

Following a courtship that lasted but few days. Miss Ethelyn Lenore Bogardus. S, of Thompson and Dew ey ] Tetreault, 24. of Putnam, were married Wednesday evening at the Second Congregational church parson- age by Rev Simeon E. C0zad. An aunt of the bride, Mrs Alice Garside. was one of the witnesses to the cere- mony.
 There was parental opposition to the marriage for il time. the brides parents feeling that their daughter was a mite too young to shoulder the responsibilities of married life Their necessary consent to the marriage was eventually given, however.
 The bride on Saturday took up her new duties as salesgirl in the bakery on Front street. Next door, in the Colonial Restaurant. was Dewey J. Tetreault. busily engaged catering to the wishes of the customers tn this popular eating place. There was the first meeting of the two young people on Monday, and from then on their lives grew together with great swift ness, their love affair reaching the cli- max Wednesday night, when they were married.

SLEEPING SICKNESS
 CASE AT HOSPITAL
Windsor Clark, 30, Continues In Serious Condition After
 Months Illness
Firsl Case of Kind Reported In Put
 nam In Long Time

Stricken on Feb l4 with what phy- sieians characterized as sleeping sick ness, Windsor Clark of Woodstock avenue. now patient at the Day Kim ball Hospital. continues III with the malady. his serious condition showing little change from day 3o day. Every means known 10 medical silence in fighting the illness is being employed. and despite Mr. Clark's continued serious condition, there is daily hope that improvement will be noted and that recovery is in the not far distant future.
 Became Ill Month Age
 Mir Clark. who is 30 years old and married, came te Putnam q year ago last April from South Woodstock. He has a farm on Woodstock avenue. He was taken severely i'll on Feb. ii and was confined to his bed at his home, where he received every care and medical attention for 10 days, when fl was decided that he should be re- moved Co the Day himball Hospital, so serious had his condition become. He was removed to that institution on the 24th of last month, and continues q patient there.
 Although Mir. Clark carries tenn perature constantly, running from 99 to i01 tcharao terized as low gradel. this is not regarded us the most alarm ing aspect of his case, as serious as this surely is His long lapses into death-liko sleeping are the most alarm ing aspects of this. the first case of sleeping sickness that has come to public notice in Putnam.
 In his periods of wakefulness Mir. Clark is perfectly rational. He is re- ported as having an excellent appetite and eats generously of his food.

BONDING co. WANTS
 OFFICERS S2OO BRIBE
Hart, Accused Bootlegger, Gave Them to State Police.-
 Bond Is Forfeited
Now Company Demands Bills He Gave
 For Hush Money

4 judge of the Windham County Superior court may be called upon to decide the status of two one hundred dollar bills, good legal tender and coin of the realm, made and issued in the regular course from Uncle Sam's mint in Washington, D. C. There is no question as Co the genuineuess of the hundred dollar williams but a question has been raised as to who is entitled to their custody, possession and the property therein.
 The two bills. around which may be woven a net of legal allegations, counter claims and a final decision which will be of interest. especially to the legal fraternity, were given over to Albert Fields, officer in charge of the state police barracks in Daniel son, and Officer Merrill Keith, mem Der of the department. When given the donor. one Barnet Hart. believed and expected that 1t would be sufiici- ent consideration for the parties of the second part to close their eyes and. failing to do their sworn duty, allow the said Barnet Hart, party of Che first part. Co depart with one perfectly good motor truck loaded with a brew called beer and having an alcoholic content of more than the one half per cent permissible since q man named Nolstead became renown- ed as spreading the biggest drought this country has ever seen.
 Barnet City Guy"
 Barnet is ''one of them city fellers" and probably knows how to do things n f.ts how to tempt metropolitan officers of the law. He made his big mistake in thinking that out here in the country men who wear the uniform of the state police can be reached by the root of much evil
 The officers pleasantly accepted the two hundred dollar notes and gentle man Hart probably thought for the moment that 1t was the easiest fix ing that he had ever fixed. He was suddenly disillusioned by none other than the uniformed gents into whose pockets he had seen the two hundred disappear.
 Coming right to the action of ths little drama B. Hart was arrested. Charges were preferred against him that he had attempted with his riches to have the two officers slde-step their duty to their chief and to the state, which. in criminal parlance, is called attempt at bribery.
 B. Hart was taken over to the Winham County jail in the pretty little village of Brooklyn where once lived General Israel Putnam. after whom our little city is named. But this is history and aside from our story. Barnet Fl. finally managed to furnish a S3,000 bond and walked from the jail as free an agent as it Is possible to be with charges of bribery hanging over ones head. Where the city feller walked to Is not known it is known that he did not walk back again, that he was not back to appe'r in the Superior Court when his ease was called As his case could not be called in his absence his bond was call ed instead and recently the bonding company who promised and agreed

30 TYPHOID CASES
 CAUSE MUCH ALARM
Malady Declared Epidemic In Quinebaug and Dudley
 Drinking Water Pure

Typhoid fever is declared to be epi- demic in Quinebaug and Dudley. be tween 70 and 30 people in the two communities being III with the mals- dy.
 Most of the sick ones are resident in Dudley, as Oscar Munyan, health officer for the town of Thompson. has had but five cases reported to him in Quinebaug.
 Massachusetts health authorities are in charge of the serious situation in Dudley. Practically everyone in the two communities has been vaccin- ated and the others are being so treat ed as rapidly as possible Health au- thorities feel that they have the situ- ation in hand and look for an abate. ment of the sickness from now on
 First Victims Fellow Workers
 The first six or seven people who were stricken with the fever were all employed in the same department of the mill at Dudley. The majority of the people who have since been taken ill are also employees of the mill
 The drinking water at the mill first fell under suspicion, but this has been analysed and has been declared free from typhoid and other germs. and is perfectly pure and healthfui. The water, as the cause of the epidemic. Is therefore eliminated from considera- ton. Authorities are endeavorinR Co find the cause.

FIVE PEOPLE FIX
 PUTNAM TAX RATE
Quintet of Voters Agree on 20 Mills As Necessary
 Rate
One and one-half Mills Greater Than Last Year.-County Tax the Cause

There were five people in attend anee Monday morning at the munich pal building when the adjourned an- nual town meeting was held for the purpose of considering and fixing the rate of taxation for the town of Put nam for this year. The meeting last ed barely five minutes. and while in progress the vote was passed fixing the tax rate at 20 mills. This Is an increase of one and one-haf mills over the rate of last year.
 \ few minutes before the hour set for this adjourned annual town meet ing there wasn't quorum present in the town hall Search of the building for legal voters in sufficient numbers to conduct the town meeting was im- mediately begun and resulted in rounding up two people. Having se- cured the necessary quorum, the meeting was started and transacted the business on the docket.
 County Tax Reason For Increase
 This increase in the tax rate, ae- eOrding to the seleetmen, Is wholly due to the fact that Putnam has q county tax of more than S9000 to pay this year, that the town did not have to pay last year The mill and q half advance will raise. on the grand list, barely enough to pay the county tax, but the seleetmen are confident that they will be able to meet this and all other expenses incurred during the coming year. with the money that will be available through collection of property taxes at the rate of 20 mills on the dollar. This 20 mills will raise approximately S1lS.000, which sum is estimated as the total of expenses for the year.
 Patrolman John T. Ryan served as chairman of the town meeting.

 Commerce Rooms Tuesday

Under the direction of Miss Belle Holcomb Johnson. state library visi- tor, fifteen librarians representing all of the towns in the immediate vicini- ~ of Putnam, met on Tuesday last in the rooms of the Putnam Chamber of Commerce for an all day session.

 At the afternoon session Robert K Shaw of the Worcester Public Library reviewed a number of recent non fiction works, and his wife, gave reviews of a number of works in fiction. Mrs NJ. E. S. Root. formerly in charge of the children's department of the Providence library, closed the afternoon with an interesting review of children's books
 The session, the first of its kind. proved entirely successful. In al most every case the librarians report ed their libraries as being widely used and regretted that only lack of funds prevented more extensive library work

PUTNAM MANS CAR FIGURES
 IN COLLISION WITH TROLLEY

Thomas J. Corcoran, Jr., of l6 Center street. had his automobile badly smashed up Monday while en- route from Putnam to his mill at Munsou, Mass. Details of the acci- dent are not available. but il is stat ed that Mir Corocran's car was in col- lision with an electric ear that. at the time, was hauling two coal ears. Though the automobile was smashed, Mr. Corocoran is reported as having escaped injury.
