He was a physician who brought sun shine and good cheer to every sick room visited, was careful and gentle in manner, making a largo number ol friends among those who called upon him for aid in time of illness. Dr. Hills, who was a direct descend ant of William Hills, one of the found ers of Hartford, was born at Lovell, Me., May 12, 1839. His father was the Rev. Israel Hills, who died at Bolton, Sept. 6, 1874, and was buried in Willi mantic cemetery. Rev, Mr. Hills had been a clergyman of distinction, in Maine, and the doctor came from that state with him, locating in Bolton in 1854, the elder Hills' health having be come impaired after twenty-flve years of confining ecclesiastical work. Dr. Hills prepared for college at East Windsor Hill academy, and hav ing decided upon his life work, went to Staffordville and put in nine months' study with Dr. S. F. Pomeroy, who lat er moved to Springfield, Mass. Dr. Hills entered Yale Medical school, nd at the end of the first course of lec tures became office assistant to Dr. P. A. Jewett and Dr. T. B. Townsend, em inent surgeons, with offices1 at the Ton tine hotel. Dr. Jewett was a professor of midwifery and diseases of women at lale, and both he and Dr. Townsend had had large experience in surgical work. Dr. Jewett was in charge of the Knight military hospital at New Ha7 ven and Dr. Hills was his assistant there. Thus Dr. Hills had a most ex cellent opportunity of securing valuable surgical training, an experience that was later put to a most worthy use. October 27. 1S62. Dr. Hills received his appointment as assistant surgeon in the Twenty-seventh Connecticut volunteers at New Haven, and with that regiment saw active service, and was highly complimented for his work at Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville and Gettysburg. At the first named place tients brought in by the ambulance korps. The last patient was taken across me ttappananr ock river ivionat-y night to the general hospital. At 3 o'clock the following morning orders were received to move on, and then ithe brave little band of three surgeons. ithree hospital stewards and three am- bulance drivers, started across -the pontoon bridge, that was destroyed be hind them. Dr. Hills was dismissed from the service February 2, 183. In that year he received his medical degree and started for Norfolk. Va., in answer to a call from the mayor of that city for physicians. He locked his office door at Norfolk in May, 1S64, and became chief surgeon and agent for Drs. Brown and Alexander, government embalmers to armies operating against Richmond. He opened at office for them at Bermuda Hundred, City Point, and later went near the Petersburg front. On the day of the fall of Richmond Dr. Hills, having made up his mind to locate there, accepted an invitation to rrom Bermuda Hundred to the fall !en capital of the Confederacy, on th over torpedoes, through obstructing Bpillng, between 'sunken ves-els, and past the recently destroyed monitors of the Confederacy. Dr. Hiiis was engaged in private practice in Richmond for a year, and was connected with Freedmen's bureau, having charge of the Chimborazo hos pital. Becoming dissatisfied with those lately in the rebellion because of their I spirit, he left the south and came to I Willimantic, and had since resided here. Dr. Hills was a member of the Wind ;ham County Medical society, and in l8i7 was president of tho Connecticut Medical society. His daughter, who is nr,Hr1r. tlI,vai.r,.an tM Ait,, rauroacis. ur.

Heatli or Magothy, Anne Arundel county, Md., and to this union there were born lour children Arthur Thomas, who died at Baltimore in 18!8; William Morton, who died in this city in 1886: Mary Lucinda, now I.Irs. Dickerson G. Baker, and Dr. Laura Heath Hills, both of this city. Politically the doctor was always a republican. He cast his first vote for Abraham Lincoln, and he took great interest in the party's success. Dr. Hills had two" grandchildren, the children of Mr. and Mrs. D. G. Baker. He was a member of the First Congre gational church and the Willimantic board of trade. One of his hobbies was history, particularly tho history of this town and state, and he possessed a large collection of historical books and documents. Gardening and horti culture also came in for considerable attention, the doctor having had a tine garden Just north of Bolivia street for a number of years, where he spent much of his time when pot engaged in his professional duties. He owned a large orange grove in the south, where he passed a number of winters. He was one of the best read men in the city, thoroughly posted on topics of the day, and having an excellent knowledge or many or the deeper scientific sub jects. He was universally known for has genial courtesy and charity that was far-reaching and Judiciously dis pensed. An Associate's Tribute. An associate pays him this tribute: Thomas Morton Hills was the dean of the medical profession of this vi cinity, having been a permanent resi dent here since 1866. in the uninter rupted pursuit of his chosen profession. He has made a specialty cf gyneciol- t'Lll '!v.;, .''1' ir LV i"- i was especially noted for his inventive suo.ess and genius, having made many kinds of splints and surgical dressings, in his own workshop and under his personal supervision. He was a member of the County, State and American Medical associa tions and the Willimantic City Medical society. He was president of the Con necticut State Medical society in 1887. He was wedded to his profession rath er tluin to social life, but was public spirited locally in many ways to his fellow townsmen. He was of high standing professionally, of excellent character and dlscreat Judgment In his daily Intercourse with his associates. Naturally endowed with a pleasing manner, a commanding physique and a gentlemanlv presence, these all render ed more striking the charms of his per sonality. "A whiter soul, a fairer mind.

Deep Interest in County Caucus at Hartford Tomorrow Booming ex Mayor Fuller for City Court Judge Prosperous Year in St. Mary's Parish. There will be a lively caucus at Hartford tomorrow (Tuesday) when the republican senators and represent atives from Windham county will con vene to nominate a candidate for the vacancy to occur In the board of coun ty commissioners. E. H. Cortiss of Thompson is a candidate to succeed himself and the indications at present are that the fight will be principally between Mr. Cortiss and Leon T. Wil son ef this city. Other candidates for the place are W. P. Kelley of Day ville and George O. Brown of Daniel son, and Oliver Hitchcock of Wood stock. Mr. Wilson has been making a very active canvass around the coun ty. Mr. Cortiss may be depended on to make a hot tight for reappointment. All the candidates have been pledged some portion of the twenty-one votes In the county and if there should hap pen to. be no choice on the first ballot it may. take several more to decide the matter1. Several of those entitled to vote have, it Is believed, made no pledge or promise to support any of the candidates. Mr. Cortiss will com plete his third term in July and has made an excellent record. The argu ments advanced against hi3 re-election are to the general effect that twelve years of service are sufficient for one man. NEW CITY JUDGE And Assistant Judge Desired by One Local Faction. There was a quiet meeting In this city Saturday morning which was at tended by a group of citizens, for the most part prominent, to consider in troducing a resolution in the legisla ture recommending; ex-Mayor L. H. Fuller for appointment as Judge of the city court to succeed the present incumbent, Judge F. K. Russell, and also recommending the appointment of Attorney M. H. Geiisler to be as sistant Judge, succeeding I H. Fuller. The resolution will probably be pre sented, as will also one recommend ing that Judge F. w. Russell be re appointed. The incident is looked up on by many as a bit of political play between local factions. There was lit tle said about the meeting in advance and only a few besides those invited to attend were aware of the gather ing, which was held In the select men's rooms in the Union block. A prominent citizen said Saturday that he believed that Judge Russell, whose term does not expire until January il 10, would be reappointed. Transplanting Big Trees at Pomfret. At Pomfret street this cold weather and frozen ground are being taken advantage of as favorable assets for assisting in the transplanting of dozens of big trees that cannot be safely moved at any other time of year. The trees are being moved to more desirable locations about Pomfret school, and on some of the fine coun try estates of New York and Washing ton residents, who spend their sum mers at Pomfret. Some of the trees moved are a foot In diameter, and fifty feet high. The method employed is to cut a circle of liberal diameter about the tree. A trench is then dug around the circumference of the circle, allow ing the excavators to pry under the roots and free the tree from its fasten ings in the ground. The frozen earth clings about and protects the roots while the tree 13 being lifted out of its original place and moved on a drag to its new location where a hole has been dug for its reception. Supported by guy3, the tree Is carefully manoeu vred into the new station, new earth solidly packed about such parts of the roots as may be exnosed and the work completed by carefully restoring the turf surface.

Burns' Birthday Celebration State President Addresses Endeavor Meet ing Democratic Nominations I. O. O. F. Installation. The 150th anniversary of the fclrth of Robert Burns was fittingly cele brated in Odd Fellows' hall by a party of loyal Scots and a few guests. The proceedings opened with a line ban quet, on the table being many dishes peculiar to the Land o' Cakes.

Sunday afternoon a union meeting of the Christian Endeavor societies of Jewett City, Pachaug and Lisbon was held in the Congregational church. Rev. E. W. Potter, pastor of the Bap tist church, conducted the service, which was opened by a praise service led by the choir. Mr. Potter read the Scriptures from Eph. 6 and Rev. W. H. Gane offered prayer. Rev. C. K. Flan ders sang most impressively His Eye on the Sparrow. President Mansfield Speaks. Mr. Potter Introduced J. H. Mans field, state president of the Connecti cut Christian Endeavor union. He drew attention to tho fact that funds will be needed to help erect the build ing for this work at an early date and spoke of the convention at St. Paul In July and the observance of Chris tian Endeavor day February 7. Ha emphasized what he was to say by de claring the Christian Endeavor cannot be separated from the church. His topic was How Can I Help Make the Work of My Society More Effec tive? First, certainly not by unjust criticism. The society's plan is within the church. It may be Improved but never abolished. It is a living, draw ing, developing movement, adapted to the needs of any church. It depends greatly on the atmosphere with which it is surrounded. Christian Endeavor Is not thecause of religious Indiffer ence. It needs more enthusiastic sup port from pastors, churches and par ents. As the Sunday school Is for teaching, so is the C. E. society for training. It Is a training school fur the church. It directs the surplus energy of the young people. Its principle, which is devotion to Christ and the church. Is sound. No organization can seem as a substitute for individual activity. March with the closest fellowship with the Master, and do what each one be lieves Is God's will. Things Needful. In order to do the best work, some things are necessary. First, fellow ship with the Christ; second, know the living book, God's Word. It is essen tial to the best life. Third, live up to the prayer meeting covenant pledge. Fourth, a faith that the true worker has in God. 1 he future of the church is In the Christian Endeavor society of today, In the boys and girls. The future of Christian Endeavor depends on the Individual life. To have a part in the upbulldln-r of a church, spiritually. Is a great privi lege. Training is of no real value, un less used. Form large plans and carry them out. There is no complete serv ice without some sacrifice. Rigid dis cipline makes good soldiers. Keep the Ideals high and strive to live up to them. Junior Department Valuable. He asked "How to get the young people to Join the socletv?" and thought the best way was to have a Junior Endeavor society, where the children are trained for Christian En deavor. Place upon the members some responsibility. Each one should prog ress spiritually, not merely "hold their own." The Saviour-hood of Christ means service to humanity. Don't wait for something to turn ur turn it up. Be cordial to newcomers visit the shut-ins, offer services to the Sun. day school superintendent, go to the pastor and offer to do what no one else will do. Christian Endeavor is a means to an end. Be loyal to the pas tor, and awake to responsibility. In terest yourself In any form of work that will interest young people. Make the prayer meeting Interesting, and do not go without preparation. Plan, pray and participate. No one can do the best work unless his life Is wrought into the life of Christ. There is no radiance without, unless there is radi ance within. Introduce new blood and develop new methods. Be real, earn est and loyal. The world needs not so much logic as it does loyalty. Do not measure yourself by someone else's pattern. Create skill and experience. Do not be afraid of enthusiasm. Keep step with the Master. His closing admonition was stand in your place and help lift. Rev. Mr. Potter closed the service by quoting a remark made by Dr. Klnr of Oberlin college: "Everyone has some work in the world which he can do better than anyone else." NORWICH OFFICERS Assisted at Installation of Lodge. Reliance The new officers of Reliance lodge. No. 29, I. O. O. F.. who were installed on Friday evening, were James A.

It makes a profuse suds, but that sua has little value as a cleanser. Clothes washed with ordinary naph. tha soaps are also clean and white, but it takes more soap, more time and more effort to accomplish the same results. A cake of ordinary naphtha soap is not as hard as a cake of P. Sc G. Naph tha Soap. It does not last as long; nor does it do as much work. Manufacturers of ordinary naphtha soaps will tell you their soap is "just as good" as P. G. Naphtha Soap. They cannot truthfully say it is better. The price of ordinary naphtha soap is 5 cents a cake. Cake Wortli More. TRAVELERS' DIRECTORY. TO NEW YORK NORWICH LINE The water way n comfortable way of traveling.

LOSING 1T8 PRESTIGt. Burdensome labor conditions and sharp competition promise to take from Brockton, Mass., the repute of being; the greatest shoe town in the nation of its population. Just as many years ago the same conditions -wrestea it from Lynn. Brockton of late has lost eleven large shoe Arms to other towns where shoes oan be produced cheaper and now oth ,er flrsns have given notice that they are contemplating removal because the labor organizations are maintain ing a standard wage which makes it impossible to manufacture the $2.50 and $8.50 grade of shoe and pay running expenses. The factories contend that the unions are demanding that the workmen who make the $3.00 shoe shall receive the same compensation as those employed to produce that which sells for twice that price. Man ufacturers make little secret of the fact that shoes which sold for three dollars la 1S90 are now selling for more. A Boston paper says: "While this exodus has operated promptly, this is not tc say that It has been a light matter with the large shoe firms. Most of them are too deeply rooted in Brockton to abandon their plants al together. But that part of the indus try which is being removed is caDable of damaging the prosperity of the city to a serious extent. The threat is not that in two months or two years Brockton will be seriously interfered with, but that the centralization of trade which gave her a certain lead ership among New England cities will have been lost If this comes to pass, it will not mean that the coveted title of "national hoe town' will descend upon another New England city, but that these industrial prizes will be di vided among a score of places, as they have already been distributed to Xashua, Augusta, North Adams, Brain trea, and so on." It would be a real benefit to some of our eastern Connecticut cities to capture a few of these shoe factories. There la no reason why shoes cannot be made as cheap here as anywhere. THE ANANIASES. Through the action of the president and Tillman and ot'bers of assigning their enemies to the Ananias club, the people are becoming familiar with the Ananlases of the New Testament, of whom there were three. It seems that a clergyman wrote to Speaker Cannon's private secretary to say that in and of itself the word Ananias was meaningless as being used by the politicians, because there was a lying Ananias and an Ananias who waa a devout man and kept the law. The Meriden Journal !s surprised that this minister overlooked a third Ananias, saying "there are at least three Ananlases referred to in the New Testament, the Ananias who was Sap phlra's husband, the Ananias who lived In Damascus, and who was a devout man aacording to the law,' and the hlgli priest Ananias who 'commanded them that stood by him to smite him on the mouth. Then said Paul unto him, God shall smite thee, thou whited wall; for slttest thou to Judge me aft er the law, and commandest me to be smitten contrary to the law?"' The Ananias talked most about by men waa the husband of Sapphira, but the one who is talked most about in the New Testament was the good An anias, who was instructed in a vision to "Arise and go into the street which Is called Straight, and inquire in the house of Judas for one, called Saul, of Tarsus; for, behold, he prayeth. And hath seen in a vision a man named Ananias coming in, and putting his hand on him, that he might re ceive his sight." But The Journal points out that Roosevelt has made no mistake in naming his club, as "the liar who up on being reproached by Peter for his hold-out In a certain land deal, 'fell down and gave up the ghost.' He be came a dead one. Just as in another cenee have many of those whom Pres ident Roosevelt has shown to be rrooked?" RESTOCKING CONNECTICUT WA TERS. Te fish and game commission in )heir annual report make a good show ing and give convincing reasons why had fishing should be restricted until lis mature fish do themselves begin to propagate. The report says: "The total catch If shad in 1908 Is reported as 64,874. elng an Increase of nearly 6,000 over Ihe preceding year, but the number of ripe shad taken for propagation was frAy 80, as against 80 In 1907. "The number of eggs obtained was 1191,000 In 1907 and 485,000 In 1908, nd the average hatch was a little elow 90 per cent, of the number of ggs. "After having fallen below 19.000 in 1902, the catch rose In consequence of sherd stocking to 67,000 In 1896, and, Is the policy was continued, increased k 124,947 In 1901, reached 176,085 in 1903 and did not fall off materially ntll 1908, when It waa 72,894. "In 1907 it cas 46,433, and in 1908 it was 64,874." The value Is herein shown of re stocking, as well as the folly of rash gobbling of the fruits of the commis tlon's work. Their recommendations should be enacted into law. Perhaps the heirs of George Wash ington ara not as entitled to the $800, 100 on lands as Is the queen of the Sandwich Islands, but they will re ceive more popular sympathy. Congress declines to put out $12,000 for automobiles for the coming ad ministration. Perhaps It expects Taft with hill $100,000 salary to buy his own motor carriages. Congressman Hobson is surer' than ever that this country is going to war with Japan. What for? Simply to get a sstbac which would be Indefensi ble. Boston olalms to have had two Jan uary, thaws already, and is expecting a third. The people appear to have no doubt that President Taft will prove to be worth $100,400. THEIR NEW OCCUPATION. Lilley Is now on the records as "ex pelled," 1jut the government treasury is better off by some JS00.000 which he javed it on naval contracts by oppoa ing single-handed the house oligarchy. Reform in the navy 'yards, which lie agitated to the intense anger of the members in navy yard districts, is un der way. These things oujrht to offset the house's action on Wednesday. Having finished Lilley, the august house will jiow resume Its work of skinning the hide from Roosevelt. Lil ley Ik in good company. Waterbury American. The house has under Cannon's lead ership shown that it is opposed to ag gressive honesty. It has stood a great deal from Roosevelt; but now that he has only six weeks more of rule, policy does not require them to quietly sub mit to any more of his thrusts and striking has come to be the fashion and will be till the end. Is is not as senseless a battle as It seems and when the future historian comes to deal with the Issues and the conduct of congress and the chief executive, Roosevelt is not likely to suffer,much. He stands before the country and before the world as a man of honest purpose. ON CLOSING THE SCHOLo FOR LINCOLN. We note that in one of our sister cities it has been determined to close the public schools on the anniversary of the birth of Lincoln. We must be pardoned If we say that we think this is a mistake. We think, on the con trary, that they should be kept open, and that at least a part of the day should be utilized in Impressing upon the pupils the salient points in the great president's career, and especially the simplicity of his character, the hardships he combatted to win a place in the world, his patience and industry and warm-hea rtPdness, and many other qualities of mind and heart which he exemplified in so much greater and more conspicuous measure than we find them about us In the average everyday life. Lincoln was not a man of pomp. He lived simply, did his work quietly and conscientiously and even prayerfully and a "holiday" aspect given to the observance of his life and work is es sentially, and even sadly, incongruous In our humble opinion, to close schools and turn the children out Into the streets for play, as on a Fourth of July, Is to do the most possible to make the pupils forget that the day has any speoial significance for them Newburyport News. Honoring the memory of Lincoln bv any kind of idleness must seem absurd to any. Intelligent Interpreter of the man and his life. Lincoln's time was precious to his great, persistent soul all time was precious. He made good use of every moment and making good use of every moment is the only, wor thy memorial of him. A $10,000,000 memorial of Lincoln. If he had any thing to say about it, would be a li brary or an institution of learning not a magnificent art shaft of graven stone. EDITORIAL NOTES. The men who rise to argue against progress find it necessary to use ar guments 130 years old. The new fine of a million and a half against the oil trust ought to be re garded as a light matter. Think of an automobile canoe. That may go in France, but here in Amer ica the canoe with power is no canoe at all. If Roosevelt made as much fuss over a tanning as congress does he could do no business. He is having a bully old time." It has been discovered that Poe was a brilliant and successful editor, and that o.ught to be a solid bas:s for any man's fame. Happy thought for today The neglected snow shovel does not need any sympathy, but those who profit by its use miss it. The person who thinks that his neighbor's wife goes to church just to see who doesn't go, has a mind that needs cleaning. Massachusetts is moving for a pure clothing law. There Is nothing pure about the clothes with the smell of the shoddy upon them still. When Mrs. Annis asked: "Ig there no unwritten law for broken-hearted widows or fatherless children she made a respectful inquiry. If Queen Lil can show congress that the payment of her claims will be of fensive to Roosevelt she may succeed in getting them this time. Men who butt their heads against political stone walls do not need to be rescued. They are simply learning their lessons from experience. One day last week at Newbury, Vt, the temperature was 30 below zero and the next morning was 20 above. These are great winter shifts Put a beggar on horseback, it Is said, and he will ride to the devil. Some men are capable of doing that when they are just made assessors of. Unnecessary Ignorance. Certainly such a pretentious paper as the Boston Advertiser should be able to clscuss Governor Lillev's' case without making itself ridiculous bv a "'"i "-1 1,1 ignorance that invalidates al It says. It recently gave out the following mininformation with refer ence to the election of Governor Lil ley: "The election was held in his (Lil ley s) district, and his constituents voted for him, for the two offices of governor ahd congressman. It mav show a pretty low standard of political morals in Connecticut, but that is Just wnat happened." Nothing of the sort occurred. Mr. Lilley was already congressman at large and was candidate only for gov ernor. "His district" was the whole state, and Major Tilson. who ran for congressman at large, was elected by the stat.j and got the entire partv vote Governor Lilley ran for governor and nothing else, and the wise ignoramus of the Advertiser will do well to in form himself as to the facts when he undertakes to tell "Just what happen ed, especially when in doing so he pre sumes to pass upon "the standard of political morals" in a state. Com menting on the above extract from the Advertiser, the Hartford Courant says: "Just read and enjov the bit of fool sermonizing. What a flood of intelli gence it suggests on the part of the moralist who thus shows ur our po litical turptitude. 'But that Is just what happened.' The people of 'his district.' and he never had a district at all, but was congressman at large voted for him last fall for two offices at the same time. A critic who starts In against us thus armed is too absurd for serious consieratlon. and yet ,his fool talk may go on to poison somebody who knows no more about .the matter than he does." Bridgeport Standard. t 1 Woman in Life and in the Kitchen. NEEDLEWORK NOTES. Marking cotton in that soft, cool shade known as china is used a great deal in buttonholing and scajloping the edges of turnover collars. Pretty opera bags are always a wel come gift, and half a yard of hand some ribbon will make up into a most desired receptacle for glassts. Keep a small waste basket in which to throw clippins or withdrawn bast ing threads, near the machine or sew ing table. The sewing room is then easily straightened up after a day's work. v A ribbon-covered glove case Is simple of construction. It should be interlined with perfumed cotton and fitted with a soft silk lining. A pret ty finish is to turn back one cofner, holding down with a bow of ribbon. NEEDLEWORK SUGGESTIONS. Shoe-holder design, to be transferred to heavy ticking, on muslin, linen or Indian-head cutton and embroidered In outline stitch with red embroidery cot ton or heavy white mercerized cotton. The School Apron. Little girls are wearing a.rfns again, and a pretty and practical fash ion it is. The aprons save the wash dresses as well as the cloth ones, with the vir tue of being easier to launder then cotton frocks. They are made in one piece, and many of them are so constructed that they may be worn as a dress with separate guimps in warm weather. Most in use for the purpose are the pretty sheer lawns and plaid muslins, and the fine linens. If a more serviceable material is desired, there are the ginghams, chambrays, percales and colored lin ens. Lace filling Is pretty and childish, but not so serviceable for trimming neck and armhole as embroidery or buttonholed scallops. Corn Crisp. Boil together a cupful each of brown sugar and molasses, two tablespoons of butter and one tablespoon of vine gar. Cook until a little dropped into coid vater is hard, add a teaspoon of baking soda, beat for a moment anu pour Into a greased pan, the bottom of which is covered with chopped or ground popcorn. When cold break. Smothered and Fried Sweet Potatoes. Cut cold boiled sweet potatoes Into quite thick slices, dip tach slice in Demerara sugar, then fry in butter. Keep the frying pan covered, as it makes the potatoes mellow. Add a dash of nutmeg and serve. Ribbon for Muffs. It has become quite a fad to tie around the center, and even the ends of the muff, the same color ribbon velvet which is used on the mat. Fruit Cake. Two cups of molasses, two cups of sugar, three eggs, one cup of sour, cream, one teaspoon of soda, six cups of flour, one pound of raisins, one pound of curants, one-half pound of citron, one teaspoon all kinds of spioe. This makes two loaves. Jewels to Match Gown. It is now possible to get jewelry to match almost any shade of gown. The stones are dyed to the required color, and made up in a simple setting of oxidized silver. Such Jewelry- is mot effective. Agatep take dye better than any other stone and are generally used if a natural one of the required color is not available. Easily Done. Cleaning the entire stock of family silver has lost Its terror since it has been disco-ered that it may be accom plished in a comparatively short time by the use of soda. Place over the fire a clean tin dishran half full of water; when it has reached the boil ing point throw in a handful of or dinary washing soda: put in all the silver, boil ten minutes to loosen me tarnish, remove it and wash in hot. soapv water. Some of it may require a hasty scrub with moistened silver polish, and all of it will need the dry polish rubbed on with a flannel cloth. While this method may be safely employed for silver, it is a dubious process for plated and oxidized ware, since the very purpose of It is the loosening of the surface coating, be it dirt or plate. Sterling silver is not injured by it. To give silver the antique or satiny surface which is again in vogue, rub it with old-fashioned bar sand. Ground corundum Is not bar sand, although it often passes as such, and is to be avoided, having a sharpness that may be detected under a miroscope, and which Is much too rough for sliver. Use for Old Calendar, Some very useful and attractive match scratchers may be easily evolved. Frequently, when the year 1s over, one is obliged to discard a thorough ly artistic calendar. Instead of consigning the backing to the waste basket, cover the place where the calendar ltelf was with a piece of sandpaper. You will have a match scratcher that Is really worth while. Fads and Fancies for Women Folk. Sleeves cannot grow any smaller. All the latest coats are D'irectorie. Millinery wings are larger than ever. Long lines characterize every gar ment. The big pillow muff supersedes all others. In belts, proper elastic will be the in popularity. Not for years has parted hair been so fashionable. The one-piece dresses lead all others in poularity. The neck outline of bodices Is likely to grow higher. Padded pipings with soutache are leading decorations. The sealskin coat Is more popular than for years. There is a fad for heavy embroidery on gauze stockings. Potato and Pea Soup. Peel and cook twelve small pota toes until tender, drain and wash, add a quart of canned green peas, a quart of milk, a tablespoon of butter rubbed into one of Hour, salt to taste and cook, strring until smooth. Should Wash New Stockings. New stockrings should be washed before being worn. This is done to remove a dressing which one finds In most new stock ings. If the stocking is worn without this dressing being removed the chances are very great that a hole will result the first day. T i Hominy Crumpets. Scald and cool one pint of milk, add one-half of a cake of compressed yeast dissolved In two tablespoons of warm water, one tablespoon or sugar, one scant cUDful of boiled hominy, four cupfuls of flour, two tablespoons of melted butter and one teaspoon of salt Beat well and let raise over night. In the morning add one quarter of a teaspoon of soda dis solved in a. sooonfuP of boiling water. Let stand for half an hour and bake in muffin rings on a hot greased grid dle. Lyonnaise Potatoes. Two cups of cold boiled potatoes, cut into dice, season with salt and pep per, fry one tablespoon minced onion in two tablespoons of buttter, until yellow; add th? potatoes and stir with a fork until they have absorbed all the butter, being careful not to break them; add one tablepoon of chopped parsley anl servo very hot. Southern Hominy Bread. Measure and cook one cupful of fine hominy. When tender take from the fire and let stand for ten minutes, then add two well-beaten eggs, one table spoon of butter, one cupful of milk, one-half a teaspoon of salt and two tablespoons of fine corn meal. Pour into a well-buttered earthen dish and bake In a hot oven in a good bottom heat Send to the table in the dtsn in -which it Is baked, serving -with a spoon. Delmonico Potatoes. For Delmonico potatoes to serve with the omelette, chop cold boiled pota toes quite fine. To each cup of potato add three-fourths of a cup of white sauce. Season well with salt and pep per, pour into a buttered baking dish, cover the top with buttered bread crumbs, and bake for 15 or 20 minutes in a hot oven. Stewed Mutton Kidnevs. Take one or two sheep's kidneys, cut In halves and remove the skin and core, dust with pepper and salt chop finely a teaspoon of onion and parsley, melt a piece of butter the size of a large walnut in a small sauce pan. When hot put In the kidntys, cut side down, also the onions and parsley. Fry quickly to a nice brown. Shake in two teaspoons of flour, stir It and let It brown. Pour in not quite a teacup of cold water or stock. Stir till it boils. Raised Dark Cake. Four cups of flour, one-half enp of butter, one-half cup of lard, one cup of sugar, one-half cup of milk, one teaspoon of salt, one-half yeast cake dissolved in one-half cup of water, one cup of raisins, one cup of currants, one cup of citron (if you like it). Mix all ingredients, except eggs and fruit. Raise over night. In the morning add eggs and fruit, cover and raise again. Pour into greased tins sprinkled with flour. Raiie another hour and bake in a moderate oven one and a half to two hour's. Sometimes omit eggs, and It Is very good without them. Cleaning Kid Shoes. To clean kid shoes, put In a saucer a half ounce of strong- ammonia, d4p in a clean flannel and rub it on cast ile soap. Then rub the shoes with this, chang ing the flannel when it becomes soiled. Dry and Stale Bread Crumbs. Stale bread crumbs and dry bread crumbs are quite different. Stale crumbs are the crumbs of stale bread made by rubbing the bread over a grater. They are to be used In puddings and escalloped dishes. Dry bread crumbs are the bits of stale bread dried In the oven until slightly brown, then rolled on a board and sifted. They are to he used as a covering for dishes which are used In crumbing croquettes, oysters, omelets, meat and fish, or as a covering for dishes which are to be baked. Whiting for Dishes. Cups and dishes which have become brown by constant baking In the oven may be brightened and made to look like new by rubbing them with a flan nel dipped in whiting. Brown Bread Sandwiches. Thin brown bread and butter sand wiches are the most appetizing accom paniments for fieh salad of any sort Cranberry Fritters. Beat one egg till foamy, then stir into it one and a half cups of milk, one teaspoon of sugar, one tablespoon (not teaspoon) of baking powder sifted with one cup of flour. Mix well and stir in one cup of cranberry sauce. Drop in spoonfuls on a hot ouiured griddle and serve at once with butter and powdered sugar. Very nice. Mending Crack in Range. To mend a crack on the Inside of a range use a filling made of equal parts of wood ashes and common salt moistened with water. This will prove hard and lasting. HOME GARMENT MAKING.

DEATH OF MRS. JULIA A. ADAMS Well Nigh Centenarian Passing of a True Daughter of New London County. In the death of Mrs. Julia A. Adams at Gales Ferry at the advanced age of 86 years, which occurred Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock, is to be noted the severing of another link w hich con nects the modern life of New London county, and of course of the state, with chapters of the interesting story of this country's past with the original set tlement of this section by the white men. with the Uma of the Indians and the Revolution the subsequent exten side trade of our local countryside to the West Indies, with the period when New England whalemen were supreme in this section, and with all that per tained to last-century life hereabouts. All of these features of the past Mrs. Adams was to a marked degree famil iar with. Her father, the late Guy C. Stoddard, state senator, a soldier of the war of 1S12, during her childhood days had to do with the settlement of In dian claims, the Stoddarda from whom she was a direct descendant having been among the first settlers in this section. In 1695 the first Stoddard took the John Gager tract of land in Grot on covering the present site of Gales Ferry. Since that time the Stod dards have always made their pres ence felt in that section, although very few of the decendants are now left on the east shore of the Thames river. They were active patriots in the Rev olutionary war. During the West Indian trade in the early part of the nineteenth century, the whaling Industry was developed at New London. Mystic, Stonlngton and New Bedford. Some of her family were Interested in the West India traffic. She married James Adams, late of Gales Ferry, who was one of the old est in term of service of New London whalers. Of sturdy Puritanical stock, she was one of the type of women who made the settlement of our country possible a woman of opinions and determina tion and of a high decree of intelli gence, who might be found relieving distress amongst the most dangerous of neighborhood illnesses, making great clothes for the men who sailed at sea or picking lint for the wounds of New London county's soldier boys in the terrl'ble Civil war. Active in church and social affairs, Mrs. Adams was always a public spir ited woman, and remained so until the last. The extension of the Norwich Worcester railroad through the town changed the characteristics of life in I.edyard and to a great degree, but Mrs. Adams adapted herself to them as far as her age would allow, and in these later days she was ever In sympathy with the idea of progress. Consequently sbe was a favorite with the young people of today, many of whom have visited her during her long illness. Two children. Mrs. William H. Mol throp (at whose home she died), and David S. Adams of the New Haven Palladium, were with her at the time of her death. She leaves relatives in very many of the cities and towns of the state, and, in fact, throughout the country.

Potter Bros. Known as the Harddigs Playing in Nova Scotia Vaudeville House. Badly iced up. her rails, decks and riggings showing the effects of her battle with the elements, the Plant line steamer Lady Sybil, Capt. M. B. Wrayton, twenty-two hours late, ar rived at Halifax. N. S., from Boston Monday night. The steamer sustained no damage, but all on'board were plad when she made port, as the trip was a very stormy one. For 14 hours in the ba,y of FurVdy the Sybil lay to; for it was Impossible to proceed against the mighty seas that prevailed. With the wind blow ing 60 miles an hour the Sybil rode out the storm, though she was con stantly washed by mountainous seas. On Sunday morning about three o'clock, in the middle of the ba" of Fundy, the gale became terrific, the steamer was tossed about in the heavy seas, made practically no headway and Captain Wrayton decided to lay to. From that time until four o'clock on Sunday afternoon she lay to, then the weather moderating somewhat she be gan to make headway. It was then hoped that Halifax would be reached early on Monday morning. But it was not to be. Off Cape Sable the Sybil ran Into a terrific hurricane, whiijh greatly retarded her progress. On the passenger list were W. L. and J. A. Potter of Norwich, and in writing home the former says it i3 needles, to say we will return by rail. Their act is taking fine up there and they have secured engagements in oth er cities for two weeks longer than their original bookings. FUNERALS. George C. Ripley. Funeral services for George Coit Ripley, who died in Minneapolis Tues day morning, were held at the Plym outh Congregational church, says the Minneapolis Journal. President North rup of the university of Minnesota, conducted the services. Representatives from the Morgan G. A. It. post, of which Colonel Ripley was a member, were present, and also a large number of the members of the Yale Alumni association of the northwest, of which association Colonel Ripley had been at one time president. The remains of the deceased have been placed temporarily in the receiv iner vault st Lakewood cemetery, and the final interment will be at Colonel Ripley's old home, Norwich, Conn. The pallbearers were John B. At water, Charles S. Jelley, Anson S. Brooks Rev. John E. Bushnell, Prof. Frederick S. Jones, Dr. Burnside Fos ter. Burt F. Lum and Wilbur F. Booth. Colonel Ripley was born in Norwich, Conn., August 24, 1S39. After the close of his military service, and aft er receiving his degree from Yale uni versity, he took up the study of law in the office of Jeremiah Haisey, one of the most prominent attorneys of his day in the state of Connecticut, and was admitted to the bar. He was for many years city attorney of Nor wich. Conn., and served two terms in the Connecticut legislature. In 1S53 he removed to Minneapolis, forming a partnership with H. G. O. Morrison. Subsequently he was at the head of the firm of Ripley, Brennan Booth, and later of the firm of Ripley Lum. He was the leading attorney bi the celebrated case of King vs. Remington, and largely through his efforts his client. Colonel King, re covered property amounting to about $1,500,000. Several years ago Colonel Tlpley had a severe attack of pernicious ane mia, and while seeming in the last year to have recovered somewhat, yet this was the immediate cause of his death. Philip Gallivan. The funeral of Philip Gallivan was held from the rooms of Shea Burke on Saturday afternoon, where a service was conducted by Rev. W. A. Gildea of St. Patrick's church. Burial was in St. Mary's cemetery. CASE SETTLED SATURDAY. Appeal to Supreme Court Was at Same Time Withdrawn. The case of Max Pelsachenkew vs. the .Hbpson Chapln company was settled Saturday morning by the de fendants for the amount of $5,500 awarded to the plaintiff by the superior court cn Dec. 17, 1908. The Hopson Chapin company or the Travelers' In surance company of Hartford, which Is the real defendant, took an appeal at that time and this was withdrawn on Saturday. Lucky or Unlucky 13. A party of local fishermen out after pickerel on Saturday was using a dip per to skim the small pieces of ice from the holes when the eagle eye of a veteran discovered that it had the marking "13" on the handle. Hoodoo! was the first thought of the follower of Izaak Walton. He communicated the fact to the captain in tho narty and at the same time expressed sur prise that with that handicap it was a wonder they found ice on the pond. The elder, who has an enviable repu tation for his cooking ability, then hastened to Ehore and began "to beat the dipper Into an unrecognizable bunch of tin. As soon as he had com pleted the obliteration and returned to the ico, up went the first tilt and there, after eleven of the prettiest pickerel were drawn forth. Vested Choir at Sheltering Arms. On Sunday afternoon at the Shelter ing Arms Rev. Nellson Poe Carey and the vested choir of Christ Episcopal church conducted a pleasing service. Rev. Mr. Carey spoke inspirlngly and the harmonious singing of the choir proved delightful. Harris Was High. Rolling a single of 124, Julian Harris was again the honor man for Satur day at the Rose alleys. The high three string for the week fell to Hill on a total of 327, which beat out a bunch of 321 made early in the week by Ca- Bringing the greetings of the state organization. President Mansfield said he should rpeak upon the subject "How Can I Make the Work of My Society More Effective?" Each member of a society can do this, he said, and them are three or four things necessary. First, through fellowship with Christ; second, by knowing the Book, God's word; third, a prayer meeting cove nant pledge, and, fourth, a definite line of work. The true society marsnam its forces for Christ and the church. It is a training school that is meeting the needs as no other organization has done. Any society can be a mighty force, and should attempt great things and expect great things. We need to get a larger vision of usefulness and ask ourselves for what purpose we are in this work. Christian Endeavor will be judged by its faithfulness to the standards it has set up. Hold fast to the religious side of life and make your prayer meetings more spiritual. Give to the work your best concentrat ed effort and stand in your place and lift for tha ri;rht. The henedlctiou was pronounced by Rev. Mr. Wright. PARTIES UNITED ON COUNTY CANDIDATE. Unique Distinction Held by C. D. Noyes as Result of Caucus. The republican senators and repre sentatives of New London county show ed a commendable spirit of fairness when, on Tuesday, after the county meeting, they invited the democrats to remain with them and take part in the caucus for the nomination of a candi date for county commissioner, says a Hartford correspondent. The motion to extend the invitation to the demo crats was made by Representative Whiton of New London in a happy lit tle speech. The invitation was accept ed by the democrats, who greatly ap preciated the courte', which was Ehown them. The caucus resulted in the nomination of Charles D. Noyes by a unanimous vote, in which the demo crats as well as the republicans were represented. Mr. Noyes will have tl3 unique distinction of being the choice of both political parties In New Lon don county. It Is not recalled just now that there Is another county commis sioner in the state who can say that he Is the unanimous choice of both parties in his county. It is not very often in the public life of this state that a can didate for a position receives the en dorsement of his county or town with out regard to party. AT BROADWAY THEATER. The Blue Mouse. On Saturday afternoon an I evening there were good sized audiences at the Broadway theater to see The Blue Mouse, one of Clyde Fitch's farcical comedies in three acts which was elaborately staged, with rich costumes and a company of clever people. It is one of those plays with com plicated situations, where people are passed off as someone else to overcome obstacles, but which results In all kinds of amusing incidents as the com plexity increases. A clerk in a rail road office, desiring the officie of di vision superintendent, knowing the weakness of his president hires a wo man to act as his wife and wheedle him Into appointing the clerk as super. It is the woman known as the Blue Mouse whom he hires, and in that role Elsa Ryan was vrry clever. As the president, Albert Gran was the foxy husband who liked lovely company and gave a pleasing interpretation of the role and the work of Robert Dempster as the clerk was likewise fine. The pe culiar situations that resulted from that alliance by proxy were highly en tertaining. The president's wife, in which part Lillian Hall made a pitia ble but loving yet distrustful wife, by force of circumstances was introduced to the clerks pseudo-wile as the real one. although she was on the warpath for the Blue Mouse, as she had heard her husband was fond of her. The pres ident himself 'mistook the clerk's real wife, the part which EfT.e Warner played with grace and finish, for the Blue Mouse, and paid her attention as such, i.ot having been acquainted with the famous person before. The real lover of the Blue Mouse was frantic when he was presented to her as the clerk's wife, this deception being made necessary to keep up the effort for the job. which was finally landed. Once secured, the mixture began to dissem ble and all was straightened out at last. The principals were given fine support, and the audience received the play with much enthusiasm, there be ing a number of curtain calls. PUTNAM PHALANX MAY ATTEND Invitation to Coast Artillery Ball to Be Considered This Evening.
