sence of any report from the um- pires, it was assumed that the fire had little effect. Report of the en- gagement reached here through Fort Wright, headquarters of the coast defenses of Long Islan sound as follows:
 "Fort Michie engaged for several minutes at about 11:5S Standard time) against DDS (frst line de- stroyers) in Lonb Island sound. Ves- sels displayed no lights. DDS no longer in sight. Am continuing search"
 Michie Is one of the strongest forts guarding the eastern approach to the sound. Giant disappearing guns and mortars are mounted on the concrete placements of the is- land. A confirmatory report, which cast some doubt on the identity of the vessels, however. was received from Fort Terry. Plum Island, a few

the coast last night had succeeded in steaming out to sea without de- lection by the enemy. The location of the major portion of the black fleet remained undetermined by the defenders this afternoon.
 The weather was very hay along the coast. The marine corps air plane squadron reported that its patrol had returned from . daylight flight without sighting the enemy.
 Concentration of black vessels moving on Block Island was re- ported by the blue vessels Gilmer and Lawrence in two further radio messages. The Gilmer sighted two mine layers. two aircraft carriers and four submarines 80 miles south east of the island at 8 o'clock (standard time) and half an hour later the Lawrence reported the same vessels with seven destroyers 50 miles from the island and still moving toward it.

 These boys say the girls haven't got it all their own way because, Didn't all boys win at the Camp school, and aren't four out of the six best spoilers at St. Mary's boys" 2"
 Thus the girls find. much to their surprise that the promised trip to Washington, D. C.. as the guest of the Herald, with the chance of win- ming $1,000 in gold, is not by any means sure of going to one of their sex. Out of nine school champions in two schools seven are boys.

miles away. There eight destroyera followed by four submarines were sighted at about the same time north of the fort.
 They soon disappeared and left observers in doubt whether they were Black (offensive) forces.
 The commander of tho Blue fleet. which has been searching for the main squadron of the Blacks. radio ed the air force commander of the Blues that much smoke' had been sighted west of Block Island (at the eastern end of the sound) and order ed him to investigate. Another re- port from an in shore patrol to Fort Wright told of a strange vessel of destroyer type.
 These movements were taken to mean that the Black fleet was att tempting to distract and confuse the Blue defenders by sending Night forces against several points under cover of which the Blacks hoped to accomplish their objective of land ing a theoretical force of 75,00O men to sack the rich industrial section.
 Claims Two Hits
 The blue squadron claimed that two hits were scored on the Lang- ley with six torpedoes launched at a range of 5000 yards.
 Another report. received from the U. s. Lawrence of the blue fleet. said that at 9:25 a. m., in latitude 40 degrees north, five battleships and one cruisers supposedly of the black fleet. had been sighted. The visibil- ity at that time was eight miles. The position was approximately that of the contact reported by the Gilmer.
 Until these reports had come in 1t had been believed that the Blue squadron which made softies from

 in NeWington

Newinstou, Oct. 1.-The adjourn d annual town meeting will be held in the Grange hall Wednesday eye ung 10 vote on the budget which has been prepared by the finance board. It is rumored that there is more than the usual interest in the meeting and several other items of importance will he brought up
 II is said that the matter of hiring an expert assessor for the town will be taken up. Residents who advocate this project feel that taxpayers would benefit by having an expert make the assessments this year. There Is also q movement on foot to have property assessed by the front on Main street, the same plan as Is in vogue in Berlin.
 The fact that the finance board refused to include an appropriation for fire house at the center, has aroused no little discussion. Resi- dents at the center who were in favor of having such q building erected feel that the petition asking for a similar one at Maple Hlll was presented with the idea Of blocking the original petition. They admit that the matter is purely a center fire district affair but they still insist that the town should bear the ex- penSc.
