The ship safely at anchor paid little heed to the blow, but the. little white and gray steara launches running between ship and shore were buffeted by wind and waves. 1 Roadstead Choked With Fighting Craft That part of the roadstead running west from the Old Point pier Veemed fairly clicked with fighting crafttoday. The two long; lines of the combined ouadrons of Admirals Sperry and Ar nold strotched, away from the dock, almost as far as the eye could reach, the gray ships of the stay-at-home fleet fading away in the rain and mist which overspread the harbor. The ships were made snug and tight for the etorm and: only a email American ensign at the after flagstaff and the commanding officers' flags at the peaks wore to be seen today in place of the rainbow streamers which yesterday clothed the vessels of the fleet in gala attire. Ships Begin Coaling, Nearly one-half of the ships began coaling today In spite of the weather. All of the vesielp came In with bunkers jiearlv omrtv after the long and stormy ruff from Gibraltar.

One of the most Interesting sights today was the departure of a large number of enlisted men whose terms of service had expired. As they left the side of the vessel on which they had served, they were given luaty cheers by the sailors. Stiil attired in their sailor togs, the men reached the government dock loaded down with all manner of luggage. Many of them had their belongings and souvenirs of the long trip stawed away in canvas bags, while others were equipped with natty leather suit cases. The latter were in variably plastered all over with labels from foreign hotels and transportation companies. The first class liberty men of the fleet made many side excursions from the various ports visitcd.and they j also were entertained at the best ho- by every nation. On these visits the men accumulated many of the travel ing labeis. Negro boys and porters loitering about the dock reaped a har vest from the home going sailors, who, disdaininar to carry their own satchels and bundles, handed them over to the boys to be taken to the railroad sta tion or trolley cars. The bluejackets brought home all manner or souvenirs from every country visited. Have Saved Considerable Money. A number of the sailors who left to day were long enllstrrent men, who undoubtedly will come back into the service before three months have elapsed. They have saved considerable money on the trip and are anxious to go home and tell of their experiences. Ball at the Chamberlin. A reception tendered in the Fort Monroe club by the army officers sta tioned here to the officers of the fleet and their wives was one of the social events of the day. Tonight there was a ball at the Chamberlin. Entertaining for the offi cers will continue almost incessantly wliile the ships are here, and the hos pitalities ashore will be returned aboard ship as soon as coaling and in spection days are over. NEW LONDON COURT HOUSE TO BE REPAIRED. No Building to Be Erected for Joint Use of City and County New London County Meeting. (Special to The Bulletin.) Hartford, Feb. 23. The long contin ued matter of improvements to the New London court house or a new building for the county and the city of New London came up at the New Lon don county meeting for some sort of settlement this afternoon. Representa tive Whiton of New London submitted a resolution which gave the county commissioners the right to go ahead with repairs to the present court house, after declaring that there s-hould be built no Joint building for the use oF county and city. The repairs are to cost not more than J50.000, the sum originally provided for by the legislature of 1905 and which it was expected to spend when this matter was up during the session of 1907. The county commissioners are to go forward with the work at once, and have, the right to appoint two other gentlemen as a committee to assist them in the work. This gives the citi zens of New London some sort of voice in the matter. Senator Latimer of Groton opposed his feature of resolution on tha ground that the responsibility for the expendi ture of the money rested finally in the county commissioners, and he thought It unwise to even seem to hamper them in the matter, but the county meeting took the view that Mr. Whi ton's resolution was In the proper firm and pissed it. No other business was done. NINTH SCHOOL DISTRICT IN TOWN OF STONINGTON Bill Authorizing $45,000 Bond Is3ue Before Joint Committee on Finance. (Special to Tho Bulletin.) Hartford, Feb. 23. Representative Broughton's bill authorizing a $45,000 bond issue for the Ninth school dis trict In the town of Stonington came before the joint committee on finance this afternoon, but it was not possi ble for the committee to hear the mat ter because the district has not voted to ask for a bond Issue. It voted some time since to allow Its officials to raise money on notes or in some other manner to meet the payments on the $48,000 school building which has re cently been built, but no vote to ask the legislature for the bond issue was ever taken. The matter has been postponed two weeks for this formality to be com puied with. INTERESTING HEARING On Closing of Fishing in Williams' Pond, Lebanon, December to April. (Special to The Bulletin.) Hartford, Feb. 23. An interesting hearing in regard to the closln? of Williams' pond in th,e town of Leba non from all fishing from the first of December to the first of April each year was held by the committee on fisheries and game today. Represent ative Larkln introduced the bill in question and spoke in favor of it, hav ing the support of Messrs. Cheney, Al len, Hasen and" F, J. Brown of Lebanon and J. P. Porter of Manchester, who owns one of the Islands in the pond and has a summer home there. It seems that fishing through the Ice is doing away with the numbers of pickerel and perch which formerly inhabited the waters there and thus killing the warm weather fishing. Mr. Field of Bozrah opposed the bill, first because he thought there -as Includ ed In it some prohibition against the inhabitants of his town and later on general principles- Cabled Paragraph Belgrade.

Infantry Shoots Himself at Governors) Island. New Tork, Feb. 23. Speculation was rife in army circles today over the motives which drove Lieut. John J. Moller of the Eighth infantry to commit suicide by shooting last night. A story was current that Moller had been jilted less than a year ago by a young woman with whom he had be come acquainted while stationed at Governors island and to whom he had been attentive up to the time of his departure for the Philippines. While stationed in the islands Lieu tenant Moller was courtmartialled on a charge of having condoned cruelties on the part of Filipino chiefs, but the verdict of the court exonerated him, and when he returned from the far east it was with the idea of renewing his suit of the young woman. Upon landing at San Francisco, however, he learned that the lady was married. This preyed on his mind, his friends declare. The name of the young woman is not given, but she is said to have married some months ago a noted ath lete of an eastern university, who. in his college days, was one of the heroes of the football field.

Speech by Admiral Sperry at Luncheon in Richmond Hotel. Richmond, Va Feb. 23. Graceful homage was paid by the southland to day to the globe-girdling American battleship fleet in this old capital ot the Confederacy. "We welcosne you to the hearts of a people who yield to no one in devo tion to the American navy or in loyal ty to 'our' flag." This sentiment, freely expressed at a luncheon in the Jefferson hotel this afternoon by Mayor Richardson, In welcoming Rear Admiral Sperry, Rear Admiral Wainwright and fifty-four of the offlcerr under the former's com mand to thi city, found echo In words of gallant Admiral Sperry when he said: "On the world's cruise I have had about me a splendid corps of offlcera. In my personal staff of seven men, six of them are commonly known in the ships as 'arrant' rebels. Georgia, Flor ida, South Carolina, all are represented among my personal aides, while my old sour apple state of Connecticut Is left out entirely. With these men at the wheel. Is It any wonder that we have gotten here, and have gotten here on time." The luncheon, at which men of all walks of civil life, of all ages and of unyielding loyalty to the cause of Lee and Jefferson fraternized in staunch fellowship with the fighting men of the navy, was given by the Richmond chamber of commerce. Admiral Sperry received an ovation. He referred to "this first separate welcome elnce we have retu-ned to our phores," and said hr bt,i uw .-?ad hU ffc1al mall inc arriving on the American side, and smilingly added: "I don't know where the secretary of the navy is. and what Is more, I don't care." The admiral pointed out that the voyage around the world was no junk et. "While we have been encircling the globe," he said, "we have doubled the score of last year's target practice. The fleet's efficiency has Increased 28 per cent, by economy of coal consump tion duo to hard and faithful men be low decks. When a contest comes a navy must know how to get there and how to stay there when it gets there. Now that the world Is governed by the people and for the people, it is not suf ficient that a aolitary arbitrary ruler shpuld know on paper the possibilities of a contest and the questions at issue. Under the constitutional forms which rule the world today, even In Russia, public sentiment may force a ruler Into a war or keep him out of it. And since the people penerally are only impress ed by what they see, it is necessary, if you desire the peace of the world, that you show your fleet."

NEEDS OF THE CONNECTICUT AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE, Hearing on Appropriation by the State of $10,000 for a Road Between the College and Eaglsville Railroad Sta tion. (Special to The Bulletin.) Hartford, Feb. 23. "The gentlemen ot the committee may think that the grwth of the Connectitut Agricultural college has Just about reached its maximum," remarked Dr. Higgina of Coventry to the joint committee on roads, bridges and rivers this after noon, during the hearing on the ap propriation by the state of $10,000 for a road between the college and the railroad station at iOagleville, "but this is far from the fact. It is only within recent years that it has begun to prow and now it is growing rapidly, surely and to the great benefit of the young I eople of the state. "It is growing so rapidly as to be very much hampered by its lack of proper facilities for approach by per sons and freight. This three miles of road between the college and the rail road is used little or none by the pe plo of Mansfield, but is vital to the life of tho college and has two heavy grades along its length which render it of little vi'ue now. There are prece dents for asking the state to assume entirely the burden f a new road and under the law the appropriation can not come out of the general fund ap propriatad for the new system of good roads." President Beach of the college was present and spoke eloquently of the needs of the Institution, which hag asked for a new dining hall, four cot tages for members of the faculty now quartered in buildings formerly used for dormitories and which it is dcsiTt' to use so again, and for money to buy the Valentine farm, which it needs and Which can be bought very reason ably at this time.

WARNER Speaks at Congregational Congress in New Hampshire on Importance of Prayer. At the second Congregational con gress in Manchester, N. 11., on Tues day. Judge Edgar M. Warner of Put nam was one of the speakers, his top- it; being To Restore the Habit of Pray er by Study. Juds Warner said in part: Study of prayer is the thought 1 would emphasize. The wlreiess tele graph operator must study electricity, get his machine In tune, and carefully comply with all conditions. Just so with messages to Heaven. We must learn to get into tune with the Infln ite. Why should we learn to pray? Because Christ taught prayer and be cause it is the method of God to con vert the world. Make it a chosen elec tive, no loncer- a forgotten secret. If we have a study we should iiave a teacher. Christ Is the only Teacher and the Bible the text book. I feel quite sure that we should treat this subject of prayer with utmost freedom and reverent familiarity. I have great sympatny lor the settlement child who, when the leader said "Let us pray, responded cheerfully at once. "Yes. let's." Tho Tale ball player who prayed God to help him win tho game and after victory for bis side mod estly told of his prayer, giving God tnanKS. is very much to mv llkine. The great object of prayer Is the conversion of the world. Intercessory prayer is the vital breath of the live Christian. It Is a great thing to pray for another soul and It Is an impera tive duty. Do we have this kind of prayer to any extent In our New Eng land churches 7 How manv members of your church spend a half-hour each Cay in secret prayer? Churches ara not growing. We cannot shut our eyes to the situation. Four hundred churches In New England, about one quarter oi me wnoie number did not receive one soul Into their membership in ivvi on conression. in 1906 total membership In 1,644 churches was 255.- 914. In 1907 additions reported were 8,036, so that It took 28 members one whole year to add one soul to the fellowship think of that. Surely that crowd of 255.000 Christians have not been praying ag we should. The need of prayer was never more urgent than at present. Materialism rampant on all sides, apathy in the church and aggressive evil everywhere. The pow ers of darkness can only be overcome and defeated by earnest wrestling In prayer by the whole church for the help and strength of the Almighty. The speaker briefly discussed three kinds of prayer: I. Secret prayer, the source of all other kinds of honest prayer. II. Family prayer, the usual result of secret prayer. III. Public prayer, or the prayers f JJ im am ls7n ff iCiill VII i C&Wt?m sock ana nmis I BssnsTed ey the Hew rriaoipla it mm. prfcrtttsfU way to faMirtj bur.

FINANCIAL AND MARKET VERY WEAK. Values Brought Down With a Crash Closing Prices the Lowest. rill New York, Feb. 23. 'Suspicion and latlva positinn in spread with rapid growth today, and brought the fabric ot values down with a crash. The con vlstlon was quick in forming after the throwing open of the steel market to competition last week that the stock market position was an artificial one and bad been brought about by fal.se assumptions of the trade position. Va rious factors combined to accentuate the weakness today, and it gained cu mutative force. The serious view tak en by the London market of our dis turbances aa shown by the heavy de clines effected there yesterday during the New York holiday paved the way tor a reversal o tne downward course, London sent very heavy selling orders to tne isew xork market -lor execution as soon as trading began, and this helped the downward rush of prices whioJt began after the opening. There waa considerable accumulation of sell Ing orders from domestic sources also. The weak early market which resulted lrom tnese oonaiuons was no more than had DSen expected, 'and alert iraanrs eiooa reaay to taite aavantage of the decline to take stocks, eoine to cover shiwt contracts put out last weok ana omB I0 n upward reaction, in view' 018 considerable extent to lng steadied the market momentnrilv ......u.. u.v.iii. uau lull. J. in:, uv but It proved a weakening fartor when the decline was removed, m il- these purchases were pressed for liquidation along with the eonfinued outside sell ing. The new set of weakening factors came in the lnferenoes drawn from the reconvening or the supreme court in Washington.

Jack Johnson, heavyweight chanrnlon. has written a letter to a friend in Richmond, Va,, from which the follow ing are a few extracts. The champion v rues: concerning the "go with Burns, as I wrote you. I knew it was a cinch, and I could have won easily in the first two or three rounds, but I wanted to shew I watn't the "yellow dog with the yenow streak" that Tom called me. As to your suggestion that I don t fight Langford in the event I whipped Burns, I will say that I am open to all comers, and would not call myself the cnampion if I cannot defend the title. ham Is the bct today In the game out side of myself, but when we fight get a big buncn on tne. for 1 11 deliver the goods." If I fight Jeff, or If he will flrht me (and I believe he's bluffing). I would prefer the fight takin? rilace in Svdnev. as Australia Is the greatest country for a ngnt i ever saw. The game here is on the square and very ooDular. With the exception of the English people, the Australians are about the squarest I have ever seen. I feel at times as if 1 would like to be an Australian or an Englishman instead of Jack Johnson. Galveston, Texas, U. e. A., champion neavyweignt of the world. However. I am from dear oid Amer ica, and while press reports state that I am not taken seriously by my own country, I assure you that the fellow that gets the title from me will have to do some "tall fbrhtlng." indeed. Mv one ambition iijw is to return to Amer ica the champion and after a short stoii In Friwo will visit New York, Chicago ana a few other cities, when, after a call on the president, I will visit my oia name town own in Texas and af- ter a cnat witn tne mayor will give a public reception to every little Ameri can boy, botn wnr.e ana colored, in my town. In the event of Jeffries returning to tne ring, i would prefer Bghitng bim in Austral-la. Should I fight- him in America, I shall .have something to say, especially concerning the third man in the ring, and shall Insist that he be one of my own color, as there are plenty of good men among the coiored fighters who could act as ref eree. If we fight in Australia I am not so particular as to who the referee will be. As to the purse, I'll fight for jdo.uou or jioo.ooo, with a JIO.OOO side pet, winner take all. TEMPERATURE FOR SWIMMING.

As we have reached an era in life when the fear of disease is intense and tho most contagious and most acute disease are daily exploited by the press, It Is not strange that Governor Lllley wa Impressed to call the at tention, of the people to the cruel re sult of these agitations and of our obligation "to a special class of Inva lids. The Bulletin fully endorses the (statement made by governor Ulley when be said: "As a matter ot fact, all that we have dona, heretofore, we have done from the most selfish of motives, that of self-preservation. But there is an other aids to the question. Because of our work, toocause of onr Incessant shouting about the contagiousness of th disease, the poor consumptive of Connecticut Is dropped from the pay roll m face or factory months before Ms earning capacity ceases, and be cause of our work ha receives every year If not less of love, at least less of that aflectlonate, tender attention that ho expected m bis last sad days. "We forbid his wife to kiss him. We warn bis children to avoid hira. We put Jilm on public record as a dangtr to the community. We shrink from him In public plaoea and gatherings. Wo tdvlse hotels, hospitals, sanatoria, and boarding houses to refuse, him ad mission. We make an outcast of him. Ta simple Justice we owe him a place of refuse. We owe him a place of refngo whether wo get our money back or not. If tie were a oat or a dog we would kill him. But he Is our brother our sick brother. To preserve our self-reopeot we must give him a place of refuge. That the children who will grow up In Connecticut In the coming years may not grow up utterly .plflh and hard of heart, we must let this campaign s gainst tuberculosis go no further antil we have provided a refuge for the poor consumptive whom we have mad an outcast." Why are we alarming people about disease Instead of teaching them the law of life which are the laws of health? Onr obligations are clear to us now with reference to those our methods have made pariahs, or out casts, but why are we not obligated to ono another to keep God's earth clean and the atmosphere purs and oorselve temperate? EY11 and most of the diseases of life aro traceable direct to Ignorance- and intemperance In Its manifold forms. What the people need is wholesome In struction In health rules not the exci tation of fear through the presentation of the danger of contagious diseases, many of which are preventable Just by cleanliness a thing declared by every standard doctor's book In print. The day Is dawning when our meth ods with reference to disease will be reversed, and the art of keeping well will be so firmly Installed that the fear of Being sick will be abolished. Those i we have wronged by our methods, should be given the succor which is asked for them. WHAT 13 THE MATTER? What is the matter with city gov ernments? From one end of the country to the other new charters and new methods are being tried, but as yet there have been no startling or very commenda ble results whether the experiment is Government by commission after the CJalveston plan, government by an in creased body of elective officers after the plan of Newburyport, Mass., or with the operative referendum or re call to put en obnoxious or (neff.cient public official out of office after the plan of Los Angeles, Cal. Everywhere the old rut Is easier to follow with all its incongruities than It Is to take the Initiative and really do something new on business princi ples, rather than to stand and meas ure the effect of everything by polit ical policy. Over in Newport, R. I, the committee- of twenty-five, which was expect d to revolutionize things to ms-ka a twentieth-century standard, are now being charged by The News of that tlty with not realizing that municipal rovernment there is on trial before the whole country and informed that Jrlendshipe should not stand in the path Jf needed economies, that the public business should, be done in a business-Ilka way, that the city of New port should be made "a model of econ my and efficiency as a business ln Ititutton managed in the interests of I he people!" This ia the right kind of talk; and It is the talk of the cltijens not in office most everywhere and the thing not being done by politicians in of fice anywhere. Newburyporfs new city charter pro files for an Increase of the city fa thers to 144. and it Is a little busy New England city" like Norwich, and doesn't need such a change any more thsn the groundhog needs a summer and a winter abode. What can 114 officials accomplish that ten or twen ty official could not? They can wran gle more, they can scare up more ob structionists, they are very likely to dally longer and to accomplish less than the lesr.er number. Good city government, points out The News of that city, is not in num bers, but In capability and honesty. The city government which is made up of aole men who do things right and conscientiously will be a good, economical and progressive govern ment whether a commission of ten men direct affairs or a council and board of aldermen composed of thirty. There id nothing to numbers or form, there is everything in the force and character of. the men chosen to govern. When it comes to President Roose velt, a right smart cheer and tiger from the crew of a battleship made him confess that he lacked reciprocal power; but he got right into the hearts of the men and officers by this admls. slon and good nature. When Dr. Lorlmrr said that to send a bright boy to college was to make a bright man of him, while to send a fool there -wa to make a greater fool, he hitl the bulls-eye. The Massachusetts telephone kiss is not always the simon-pure article, for tho wires got crossed, you know. JOHN MITCHELL GOING TO JAIL, John Mitchell, the greatest labor leader of the present time, does noth ing foolish he makes fame In lii work, not notoriety. lie says that If the edict of Judge Wright stands, he Is going to Jail and serve out his sentence. There is oo defy in this roan of the people; he will abide by the law whether it la good or bad. Going to Jail would not make a orlm lnal of John Mitchell any more than a prison could put a mark of degra dation Upon Paul or Galileo, or Bun ran or Milton, or any other of the noble men who have suffered for their knowledge and manliness or for their mistakes. This country does not want to see John Mitchell go to Jail. It doesn't need to have men like him In JaiL but it needs a great many more of them out of Jail a great many mors stand ing against the oppression of the peo ple. The Bulletin hopes that John Mitch ell will not have to go to Jail that a way will be found to save a man of such excellent character and nota ble example. If he thinks he is right he can only stand for It In conscience, and he can win only respect for his willingness to suffer that others may have larger liberty or larger opportunities in life. THE PRICE OF ICE. "The rapidly Increasing and tremen dous demand for ice," says the New Haven Palladium, "makes It almost necessary for something to be done towards keeping down the price when nature falls to provide the normal crop which might be possible If the matter were given a thorough and sci entlflo study, it might be possible to so reduce the cost of manufacturing ica that It would take the place of the natural crop and be offered con sumers at a price more within the reaoh of the modest pocketbook than that which Is asked for the natural commodity In failing seasons. It would be a great hardship upon every class of people to be compelled to have re peated In the ice situation such price fluctuations as have taken place In the coal traffio. It is something to be avoided and something worthy of careful study." This is a popular topic which ap peals to the people, but the price of Ice does not fluctuate as much as the price of beef or of grain, and a thou sand and one other things. Hasn't Ice cream been ten cents a plate for half a century? The Ice barons have never yet knocked ice cream from its pedes tal, although It rmit be admitted that they have at times seriously affected the sire ot the dab of cream brought on the plate. When ice gathering is cheap and the crop large the icemen have to make up their past losses; and when it is dear they have to figure to keep their customers and the cus tomers all have to figure to get along with half the usual amount of ice. ,lt Is not easy to tell who has the worst side of the ice problem the men who sell or those who buy. THE BUTTON BECOMING CLASSIC The idea of having Tale buttons for Tale men seems likely to be carried out and to be well guarded against Infringements by some who are not true blue. It is a matter in which college men themselves would observe the proprieties, without any particular restraint being enforced. The size of a collepe, or the choice of a college color has never dictated college loy alty, nor will a college button. Would a Yale man wear a Harvard badge? Xo. Nor would a Harvard man mas querade with a Yale button. And the same principle holds true among the alumni of other colleges. Each is loy al to his own. The infringements would come from the outsider. An sonia fentinel. But these Infringements may be guarded against by law. The state of Vermont has a law which makes an Impostor of any citizen who shall wear the Grand Army button or the symbol of any civic association, for a deceptive purpose, and as a check to such dishonesty and false pretence a fine of fifty dollars is the limit. Of course, there will be Infringements by outsiders and negligence of the button by those who are entitled to wear it, but who do not care for this special kind of distinction, not because it isn't honorable but because these Identify ing signs always have their draw backs. If Yale men want to wear an Identifying badge there is nothing to be said against it; and the Yale badge and every other society badge should be given the protection of law. EDITORIAL NOTES. Senator LaFollctte is a little man, but he makes more noise in the polit ical world than some of the giants. The woman who can capture a bur glar and not faint when he is secure is suspected of being absent-minded. Five girls took prize- medals In the Ne-w Britain Herald's Lincoln day let ter contest, In which eleven were giv en out. Happy thought for today: Hurrah for the bluejackets, may they find a warm welcome In the hearts of all the people. William Jennings Bryan may suc ced in getting Darwin into the Anan ias cub, but he cannot make a mon key of him. i When we look at what It costs to inaugurate a president, how can we talk of the vanity and extravagance of the women? When remnant sales are the vogue It is queer that some of the gold bricks that have been bought do not come to the front. A bride's exchange offer is this: A nice gold-plated set of candelabra for a washing machine. That ia getting down to the practical. John D. Rockefeller has given $43,- 000.000 toward educating the south and he has the distinction of having a "solid gouth" all his own. The doom of the man who banquets too much and too long is to starve in tho midst of plenty. Foolish men go to their doom regularly in turn, too. There 'was distributed to the re turning fleetmen on Monday eight Jiundred thousand dollars in brlgrft new gold coins right from Uncle Sam's mint. It was the strangest thing in the world that Charles Frohman tried to make a "stage star" out of a wife who was Just yearning to stay home and darn socks. The cruiser Yankton was the errand hoy of the world-encircling fleet, and she got into port several days ahead THE BULLETIN'S r GLADYS GOT "I wonder," said Miss Rlordan, seat ing herself In one of tho restroom rocking chairs and giving a. vigorous push' with both feet, "where Gladys MeGoi igle is today." "Hasn't ehe sent any wont?" asked Miss Hanson, likewise establishing herself in a rocking chair and urging it into action. "Wot es I know ot" replied Mis Riordan. "Maybe she's sick," suggested Miss Gohegan. Miss Spinks gave a slight rnlff. "She was all right ster A loud shriek from Miss Weibergw, who was glancing over a newspaper, cut short Miss Spinks' remarks. "What's the matter T cried all tho others, as Miss Weinberger held up both hands. "Look at that," ehe commanded dra matically, pointing to the list of mar riage licenses. Four heads gathered about the sheet and four pairs of eyes eagerly ran down the column indicated until some one caught the names: "John Lonni-gan-Gladys McGonlgle." Well, what do you think; of that!" cried Miss Riordan and Miss Spinks. "Well, what do you know about 1hat!" cried Miss Gohegan and Miss Hansen. "9r,e certainly was foxy," declared r.Siss Gohegan when she felt herself sufllcifntly recovered to talk. "That's the reason she's been getting half days off every once in so often," said Miss Hansen, pointing an accus ing finger at nobody In particular. "i?he's been wearing out all her old i lothes. too. Yon know, she didn't get a new hat or a new suit this winter." Miss Riordan settled back into her chair ag.iiri. "That's so." said Mis Gohegan. "And, come to think of it, girls, she was cleaning up her desk yesterday. It' a wonder some of us didn't catch on." "What's the ages?" inquired Miss Riordan, reaching for the paper. "Twenty-four former and 28 for him!" "Humph!" remarked Miss Spinks. "Guess they've got them turned around." "Oh. Gladys aint so old," said Mis Goheg-an. "But there' ten In the family younger than her, and when you've got to help bring up a family of young ones like that it kinder wears on a person." "You bet 'it does," agreed Miso Wein berger. "Gladys was always an awful good girl at home." "Her boing the oldest daughter, seems like they'd of had a wedding," remarked Mis Spink. "Not for her," exclaimed Miss Gohe gan. "Gladys says to me after her Bister Maude was married last rum mer, she says: 'That' the last wed cf time and took the gold out to pay the men off. It is said that William H. Taft has his doubles in different parts of the country. This may, in a way, bo true, but the president-elect cannot be duplicated. The New York Judge who decided that a man is the ruler of his own house, may have doubts as to who Is boss in his own place of domicile, If lie a benedict. THE RULE OF TAXATION As Disclosed to the Provldenoe Eve ning Tribune. For the real estate holders there is no escape under the elaborate, minute and carefully systematized system of inquisition which has been developed In the tax department for collecting, tabulating and applying knowledge re garding this particular class of taxa ble property. It is property that can not be kept from the eyes of the as sessors, and the assessor are not lenient in assessing it. They cannot be lenient in the case of real estate because the fact that they discover so small a portion of personal property makes it absolutely necessary, in order to raise anywhere near the amount of money that is ex r feted of them, that in the case of Buch property as they do discover they shall show no mercy. Tax the property you can see to the limit in order to make up for the revenue you do not get from property that escapes taxation because you can not so readily see it. That seems to be the rule. And here are some examples: There is a house and lot in a good residence district on the East Side which cost J7.000 nine -ars ago. The house has been deteriorating rather rapidly because of poor construction. The property Is mortgaged for 14,000, and it has been put upon the market in vain at J 6.00 0. It Is assessed S8.S00. There Is another piece of residence property in that same part of the city which was bought for $9,800 three years ago and has ever since been assessed $16,600. Sold too cheap, you say? Well, the purchaser, who made an advance payment of $500, tried hard to get out of the bargain after he had looked Into It more carefully, but the broker in the case was so relieved to 1 iEoriESDAY fi-rr iuedfjesday f T EiUfiSDAY F "'7 r r c....yM j THURSDAY MOHICAN METHODS MAKE LOW PRICES 1 FRESH I SIRLOIN I HAMBURG I BEST LAMB SHOULDERS STEAK STEAK CHOPS 71c lb. 14c lb. 8c lb. 121c lb.

I 'guess yes. In the first place, all them kids had to be rigged out in new clothe and then there was the supper and the Invitations and all that truck. An' they had to put now paper on her ma'e bedroom ao they could have the presents up there. But Gladys says the worst of all was the way her pa carried on. In the first place he acted up something terrible about having a wedding, and when the time come to got ready for the cere mony he vowed up and down he would nt put on a collar. Ha eald he hadn't had one on for twenty years and he wasn't goin to put it on for anybody's wedding. G.adys say to trie after ward, she ia: 'I wouldn't go through what ma and me went through with getting pa lnta that collar If the dook of Arabruzzy was to ast mo to marry him,' she says." "But then there's the presents," de murred Mis Hansen. "If you don't have a wedding you don't get any presents. That' the only way you have to get oven with all tho people you've given present to." "That's so. But land o' goodness! You could buy everything you'd get with what you'd save by not having a wedding." "Speaking of presents, what'll we Jo about Gladys?" askjd Miss RHordan. "Seem like he couldn't expect any thing going away like that and never saying a word to anybody," said Miss Spinks. "'Twould seem kinder mean not to give her anything." said Miss Riordan. "You bet it would," declared Miiss Gohegan, heartily. "Gladys was al ways the first one to start a list for anybody else for flowers, or wedding presents, and like that. I'll chip in double for anyone that aint willing to give," with a glance at Miss Spinks. "Of course we're ail going to chip in on Gladys' present," interposed Miss Weinberger, oothingly. "Then we can all go out and take It to her and find out whether they're going to house keep, and where she was married, and if they're going to have a house or a flat, and all." "Yes," chimed In Mlaa Riordan. "We'll heve to wait till tomorrow to decide what we're going to give her, though. If time to go down now." The girts all rose hastily, smoothing down their skirts and fluffing up their shirt waists. Mlrs Hansen paused a moment before the glass as she paesed. "By the way," he aid, casually, looking over her shoulder at the re flection of her back. "I wonder what kind of a fellow Gladys married." Chicago New. have a customer hooked that he would not release him. There ia a pieoe of business proper ty in the center of the city which is assessed $41,004, though it changed owner a few years ago for $26,000. Perhaps it ha Increased in value since? Well, the man who sold It, one of the shrewdest handlers of property In the city, say he- la mighty glad he sold it when he did for he never could have got a much for It since. There is a piece of land on the West Side which ia for sale at 0 cent a foot and on which a manufacturing company might have located a plant but for the discovery that It is assess ed on a valuation of $0 cent a foot. Now, these may bo very exceptional cases, and they are not offered as proof that the real estate of the city is generally overassessed. But they do Indicate that there Is no leniency shown in the assessment of real es tate. And as the owner of thi form of property must expect to pay taxes on pretty nearlv on the average, the full value of their holdings, rt is for their Interest especially that the tax rate should be kept down.

It has long been apparent that the time would surely come when this country, like other, would abandon It past policy of always ornamenting It coin with the head of nondescript lm personals (Mis Liberties, Mr. In dians, and others), and would replace them with the head of It heroes and nallon-makers of the past. If we dec orate our greenbacks with the heads of noted American, there is really no ar gument agalnBt extending the same custom to Dhe coins a welt It is fitting that a decision should have been reached at Washington which, if it is not revoked, will place the head of Abraham Lincoln upon our one-cent coins. It is particularly fit ting that thi decision should be reached and that the coins should first be struck off in the year of the centenary of his birth. It is safe to say that at no time in our history, surely not when ho was living and when the country was so rent with internal disagreements, have the achievements and worth of Lincoln been so generally recognized and ap preciated as at the (present moment. The centenary which has Just passed has resulted in bringing to light more Lincoln memorabilia than any event to date.

There was a representative gather ing of business men of Norwich at the annual banquet of the local board of trade on Tuesday evening at the W'au' regan house, when one of the most de lightful and Huccessful affairs of th organization resulted. ir a half hour following 7.30 there was a reception for the honored guests in the parlor and time was enjoyably spent in a social way. At 8.15 the large gathering entered the dining room, the guests and offi cials leading the way and occupying the head of tha table, where were seated President F. W. Cary, President Lucius Tuttle of the Boston Maine railroad. Mayor Costello Lippitt, May or Nathan P. Avery of Holyoke, Hon, Charles E. Searlg of Putnam, Rev. Ed ward S. Worcester, Charles E. Ca9e, Frank T. Brown, Edwin A. Tracy, Henry A. Tirrell Joseph D. Haviiand Henry W. Ttbbits, C. Leslie Hopkins, William B. Young, T. C. Murphy, S." A. Gilbert. The tables were arranged with the head across the front end at the dining room and four long tables running at right angles the length of the room. Covers were laid for 250 and practically every chair was occu pied. The tables were handsomely decorated with potted plants and a carnation was at each plate. Tubbs" orchestra In the alcov behind palms furnished music, of th kind which brought forth frequent applause through the banquet. After the members were seated, grace was said by Rev. Edward S. Worcester and the following irresti ble menu was served, the gathering standing as the Suir Spangled Ban ner was played: Llttie Neck Cocktail. Stuffed Olives Terrapin Soup Baltimore Soup Sticks Crab Flakes Xewburg-Mn Cases Celery Radishes Roast Turkey Oyster Dressing Mashed Brown Potatoes Canned Peas Banana Fritters Maraschino French Cream in Forms Fancy Cake Demi-tessa Cigars President Cary Speaks. After cigar had been lighted Pres ident Cary assumed the position of toastmaster, in which role he is ever a master, and addressed the gathering as follows, being received with and frequently interrupted throughout by applause: I count it as one of the pleasantest duties of tha president of tha Norwich Board of Trade to preside at the ban- v it. .ft. FREDERIC W. CART, President. .quet of this organization. Our annual "affairs are as dignified and brilliant as those of any organization In the country. This was the verdict of the trio of congressmen who were our guests a year ago. I feel this magnifi cent gathering here tonight is a wor thy tribute to the drawing power of the gifted gentlemen who occupy the speakers' table. I extend to them the warmest welcome that hospitable Nor wich can give and hope they may often in the future accept our hospitality. We are met so close to the anniver sary of the birth of Gen. George AVashington that I cannot refrain from alluding to him. On the evening of June 30, 1775, he came up the Thames river In a packet boat with horses and attendants and stopped for the night In the little, low brick building which stood on the corner now occupied by the Norwich savings bank. The next day he proceeded on his way to Boston to assume the command of the Ameri can army. Again in April, 177S, Washington re turned by way of Norwich and crossed the Shetucket river at the fording place in Greenevllle. He remained here long enough to have dinner with Col. Jedediah Huntington in the house now occupied by Mrs. William H. Fitch at Norwich Town. The board of trade has been very ac tive the past year. We have made several attempts to Induce desirable citizens to locate In our midst. Much of the work has been done quietly. The discouragements have been many. In a physiological experiment at aneer Signals Urinary troubles, lam back, head aches, swellings of th feet and ankle and pufflnee of the eye are mighty sure danger signals warning of the weak condition of the kidneys.

D Heard with Much Interest Yale university some time ago a frog was placed in cold water and the water heated a: the rate of one degree every five minutes. The- frog never moved and at the end oi two and a half hours was found to be dead. He had evi dently been boiled without noticing it. There are hundreds of business frogs. Men who are not sensitive to changing business conditions. They close their eyes and ears to any proposition in tended to bring about more friendly and profitable local conditions. They greet any new project generally with doubt as to its logical and safe char acter. One of the alms of a board of trade should be to encourage the pro gressive spirit, to venture on experi ments that give an even chance for success. There 'are many men In business who mix the past, present and future. They sem entirely taken up with their vain regret for yesterday's mistakes and their needless worry over the out come of the morrow. They seem not to realize that they need live but one day at a time. They are like the hun gry beggar Who when asked how long he had been without food replied; Three days yesterday, today an4 to morrow. This remark too truly ex presser I a far-reaching human feeling. We e ir have vain regrets that the men who made Norwich are la Yantic cemetery. We forget that the men in whose hands is the future gf Norwich are before me tonig'ht. It Is true that the conditions at the close of th Civil war were such as to mske many of our merchants and man ufacturers wealthy. The wealth that at that time was in the hands of a few Is. now distributed among the 40, 000 depositors of our savings banks. Furthermore, if Norwich appeared more prosperous forty years ago It was be cause ojr capitalists were investing their money at home. They have since had sonic experience Investing their capital abroad. The money washed on outside schemes in the past forty years would have been ample to double the number and extent of our local industries. Instead 'Of being the home of individual mills we might easily have become noted a the home of vast trusts. For two hundred years or more there ha3 existed a spirit of rivalry between tha terminal cities of the Thames river. Norwich, having gotten comfortably over her courthouse troubles, now sympathizes with New London in her ambition to provide equal facilities for court purposes. The argument has been used that unless New London ex pended several hundred thousand dol lars for a new building all the court business would be transacted at Nor wich. -New London need have no fear.? in this direction. The good citizens of Norwich who followed a recent trial in our city of a New London woman are perfectly satisfied to have New London's caseB tried at home. Norwich is earning an enviable rep utation as a convention city. Admira bly suited by natural attractions, abundantly endowed with historic in terest and easily the leader of the cities of the state in the hospitality and convenience of its social organ'za tions, Norwich offers superior induce ments to organizations which hold an annual gathering. During the past year we have entertained twelve state conventions. The 'impressions which one receives on entering a town are usually lasting ones. Hence a certain amount of civic pride is necessary in making our prin cipal thoroughfares clean and attrac tive. Norwich Wft3 one of the five cities Incorporate.! oy the legislature Of Con necticut in May, 1784. The mayor wfis at first chosen for an indefinite term. In the early days it was tiie custom for the mayor to serve twelve to fif teen years. In 1S14 a mayor was elected who held on to the office for seventeen years before he saw fit to resign. Other candidates for the may ors lity grew old waiting for a vacancy and finally rose up and declared that in the future the term of office should be limited to one year. There are those who believe that it is now an appropriate time to restore the ancient custom and continue the present mayor in office indefinitely. I have tho honor to present to you His Honor, the Mayor of Norwich, Costello Llppitt. Mayor Lippitt Pleased. JMayor Lippitt received a round of applause as he responded and said he was fc-lad the time had come, as he had been dreading it all the evening. Malt ing speeches he considered one of the drawbacks in helng mayor. Like the old Wauregan Hook and Ladder com pany, he 3ald his motto was Deeda Not Words. It Is easy tonig'ht to welcome our guests, as President Tuttle's wife was formerly of this city, while Mayor Avery's parents were residents of this city, as was he for some time. We have not as much to show here as there was two weeks ago. but there are some fine ruins and people go tc Egypt to see less in the shape of ruins than they are. The owners say that better buildings are to replace them in time for our 250th, anniversary celebration. He thought there would have to be some hustling, as he has had some ex perience with contractors. It Is a hlg undertaking, but one to rejoice in. Ha spoke highly of the board of trade and its work and value to the city. Nor wich owes much of Its prosperity and suV-cess to it. It has done ail It could and created public sentiment, which amounts to much in getting new and fostering old Industries. It is well that such men as calamity howlers do not fird a place in the board of trade. But for the work of the board of trade or its influence many industries would not be here and those industries must be conserved. They should not be gotten here and .then dropped. Years a;jo we lost such industries as Hmith Wesson and Allen Thurtjer, as well as others, because of a cold hand. He expressed gratitude to those who did so mu'ch to keep the Hopkins Allen Arms company going after the fire, an industry of great importance to the city. All honor is due those who re habilitated it and allowed their divi dends to be turned In to buiid up the business. It is. wise when we abate taTes for new Industries to be careful of the old ones. Taxes must be paid or the city departments cannot be carried on. The difficulty of the assessors is great and yet they have done remarkably well. Capital, however, cannot be coerced and when capital goes labor follows and then there is no one to ray taxes. He spoke of two concerns which were planning to enlarge, but now it is a question whether they can or not. It is well to be very careful of those wl ich are established. Our recent fire has fully established tho efficiency of the fire department. They saved In adjoining property so many times the amount of the appro printion last year for it and no one realized It more than the adjoining owners. He expressed obligations to the lady wlio promptly sent the Yan tic engine to help out our department The adjusters state that we need an other enpine, there being one impor tant section without an engine. We Khould show ciinflrlenee in the depart ment and they will show us how to protect property. With the several new buildings lin ing enacted now is the time to estab lish a building commission. (Applause.) He said he had no criticism of the past but now is a fitting time for such a commission. There 1 no better or ganization to bring it about than the board of trade and thu by it efforts In tha; as well as other directions the Rose of New England may become the faires-; in the bunch of New England cities.' (Applause.) president Tuttl Presented. In presenting President Tuttle o4, the Boston and Maine road. President Cary stated that he was connected with som'i of the leading families of Nor wieti hi wife being the daughter of the late George Martin of this city, and associated with him on. the direc torate is our corporation counsel, who prooably advised him to be present here tonight. Iresident Tuttle expressed pleasure in attending the banquet, and said he us')d to know more of Norwich twenty yens ago than at present. There were more attractions here then. The city 1W- knew was one of distinct New Eng land tone, peopled by those who used their gifts divinely; cltizef of wealth who used it In promoting good, which tit those days was considered creditable and probably is now. His subject was Transportation, One of .the Great Public Industrie of the Country, and he proceeded to give a brief history of transportation in a clean cut, interest ing style, which thoroughly delighted. In nothing has f.her been such a change, said Mr. Tuttle, in the past half century as in the methods of com merce and business. Telegraph, phon ograph, trepwriter, stenographer, elec tricity and many other things for the rapid transaction of the world' busi ness have been discovered or evolved within the memory of many now in active business. Our grandfather nev er thought of audi possibilities. Fifty years ago such thisgs would have been considered the product of if disordered mind. -.We have, however, taken them lik a natural Inheritance, but it is well to stop- and see that they ar not a vnatural Inheritance and need ome fostering care. ,The fundamental basis of all rapid transaction of the world's business is public transportation. He told of a sale involving twelv million dollars done by correspondence and telephone, the parties never seeing each other be fore or after, all done aa routine busi ness, whicti a few years ago would have been considered beyond-the limit of possibllly. As the result of these expeditious methods there has come impatience and a desire to regulate all but one's af fairs. We learn of great losses in dif ferent part of the country and we think there should be regulation and reformation. In none is it worse than in public transportation methods to day. Neither the railroad or railroad cor poration was discovered, by any one. It is today the result of evolution, from no intent beyond the carrying on of a purely private business. Follow ing the close of the wars in Europe after the banishment of Bonaparte, there was a chance for the develop ment of commerce, trade, Industry and farming In many countries. England started fist and soon the product was so great that it could not be gotten to market. McAdarn then gave better roads in ISIS and canals were dug between waterways which helped in breaking the congestion somewhat, but there was great need of public, uni form and facile transportation. Loco motion was only in the minds of In ventors, tho i tirst locomotive being tullt for drawing coal from mines. It worked effectively on a level, but not on an up grade. In 1814 Stevenson had one more effective and when the operation of coal mines, which re quired getting the cars over hills, was started he put Into operation two of his engiaes there, and that marked the beginning of public transportation by steam. Then sprung up great under takings in that line, and in 1836 in tli is country there were 1,000 miles of railroads. Since then the nunrber of miles has been greatly increased until now there are 230.000 miles of main linss to every section of the country. The railroads have changed the coun try from a wilderness or waste land to great rival states, spreading civil ization and making this the greatest nation on earth. Transportation Is the life of the bul ness of tha country. We must bear in mind that every corporation is an in dustrial enterprise, like all other In dustries, only its product Is trans portation. It Is purely a private en terprise and the existence of railroads has depended upon people placing therein their money, expecting a rea sonable return therefrom. When the return ceases they seek other chan nels. Every mile of the 230,000 miles has been built by such money, placed therein with the expectation of an adequate return, and out of this pe riod of impatience has come a desire to regulate and It has "become the strangulation of railroad product. It is aboot as impossible to get new money for railroads with an Idea of an adequate return as for a philosopher to try to lift himself by his flhoe straps. The repressive force of legislation has destroyed the .possibility of ade quate returns and caused the placing of money elsewhere. Stop for one year the necessary extension of trans portation to meet the demands of trade and commerce and decay sets it. The corporation is looked on as an inani mate thing which can be persecuted, which policy is an exemplification of the fa'ole of killing th iroose which laid the golden eeg. Isn't It time to stop and think on these great question which involve the well being of every Individual and community? Five million are needed to excand transportation systems to look after the business arising after the depression of the last year. Where Is It coming from? Will you put in vour money unless you know there will fc an adeq-uate return? The pub Uc servants should be given the chance to give this adequate return which Is erpeted. If the movement does not come the public and not the railroad wi:i be the greater eufferer. President Tuttle closed amidst much applause, having shown himself thor oughly versed in his subject. Poem by Charles E. Case. The next number was a poem ty Charles E. Case entitled The Old and the New. It referred to a visit of Major John' Mason, one of the settlers, to Norwich recently and the great sur prise he experienced from the many changes, the Merry Widow being one of the big surprises. The poem was givpn iy Mr. Case in his inimical tyle which 'thoroughly pleased and he was accorded much applause. Mayor Avery of Holyoke. President Cary introduced Nathan P. Avery, son of Edwin P. Avery, who in '62 was one of the 75 who responded from Greenevllle at Governor Bucking ham's call for troops.' The son Is now serving his fifth term as mayor of Hol yoke. Mayor Avery gave an Inspiring talk on The Duties of a Modern City, after expressing his pleasure at being pres ent and recalled the many delightful days of his early boyhood here. All who have left this cornsr of the state, he aid, retain an undiminished love and regard for it. Norwich is widely known for its beauty and facilities and Is full of memories and traditions. It is a modern city without losing the beauty of earlier years. Holyoke is modern, a bit of the west dropped into the Connecticut valley, and it is interesting that these new and old places have made the boldest plunge into municipal ownership of public utilities and have been successful. Seven years ago Holyoke was paying $100 for a street arc light. 20 cents for house electric lights and JI.35 for gas. Now arcs are $60 a year, house lights 6 cents and gas $1. and last ear their plant paid all Its expenses, depreciation, Interest and its own share of the hooded debt. So far it is a success there. It shows two things, that there is a new conception of th functions, purpose and uses of a city, OAaToniA. TL.

The city is the focus of the locality where it is plced. Every city has the advantages of every other city, the problems varying in intensity but not In kind. A few men did things in old en times, but while great men do their work now yet the modern city 1 not the product of a few Individual. New city charters are now occupying a big share in the work of the legislatures. Th future of th United States is not wrapped up in any one cit- but in all of them. The time has gone by when a city government can amount to anything except through scientific and economi cal principle. The reason is econom ical and not political. The cities are demanding ao much that unless hon esty and economies enter in it cannot be done. The future must be planned for, and tie told of public bath houses, play grounds and other great thines which ar being done there. The great est jumble, he said, is the liquor leg islation. People stay In a city where modern methods are pushed and in dustries can be secured for just that reason. Senator Searla Heard. The closing speaker was Senator Searls of Putnam, who interested in a few stories well told and spoke up on the work of the legislature. Therw are 800 bils introduced into the leg islature and of the number each ses sion, it can be fairly said one-quartei are vicious, one-haif useless and the remainder v -rth something. It is oft en the worthless ones are paused and the good ones turned down. He told of the workings and spoke on legisla tion In general, concluding with stat ing that Norwich has always had a glorious record in political or ocial circles. He recalled a a young man Governor Buckingham, Judge Foster, Jeremiah Halsey, Co. J. T. Waite and Judge Hovey. Any resident of Nor wich can proudly say "I am a citizen Of Norwich." 'Norwich will lead in all things good and b an uplift to the state. This concluded Mie speeches- and the gathering dispersed after a rising vote of thanks to the speakers. Tha successful affair was arranged t the officer and the entertainment an reception committed and was gen erallv a knowlerlped to be one of the organization most successfur affairs. 'i hc Board of Trade quarterlies were distributed, being the Washington number, and received mm-h favorable comment. The cream in forms had on top in red Board of Trade.

Vrv-' SEVEN WESTERLY YOUNG MEN Ou Battleship Fleet -rown'j Endeavor to Secure New In- dustry Local Delegation at Big Banquet in Provi dence Sheriff Wilcox Receiving Many Inquiries About Albert Fuller" Jesse H. Noyes, of Stonington Found Dead in Well. A mill engineer of experience will before the week's and make examina tion of the two Bitot In Westerly and the sits in Bawcatuck, town of SLon ington, offered the Narrow Fabric com pany for the proposed new mill struc ture. Both the towns of Westerly and Stonington would exempt the industry from taxation for a term of ten years. It is probable that within a week the n.atter of location will be deflnltrly de cided. Strong- effort is being made to have the industry on one of the local sites, and indications favor that result, althougn strong bids for the factory have been received from Providence, Pawcatu-i-k, Hope Vallej) and other place in Rhode Island, also In Massa chusetts and Connecticut. However, considerable stock of the ceaipany is held in Westerly, and It is expected that the concern will, be added to the local industries. The rew I arrow fabric leom of the company is the product of "Merrill O Steere of Pawcatuck, whs after several years of study and labor has brought out and patented a quadruple loom, weaving- on both sides at the same time. The loom has one hundred shut tles, fifty on either side, and is capa ble of dolnt four kinds ef work at eix-e. It will also do anything- that can be dene on any loom of this nature. Eleven patents have been taken out, and others are pending;. Tfce loom has many improvements over the ordinary narrow fabric an vice. ani these eover the most import nt parts. The patent friction let-off, for instance, uses only one-eighth the amount of weight required in orner looms. The shuttle motion has many advai-tave over others, as all wires and straps are discarded and a num ber of gears are eliminated. With this device the shuttle mechanism is oper ated by a crank shaft arranged at on end of the loom. The patent harness motion Is anoth er feature, as all wires, straps, hooks. unks. lac lest raps and lacks are elim inate,. The cams run in oil and thus make a marked saving- in the amount of oil usod. also savin (j labor and wear of the cams themselves. The adjust ment of the harness is quickly aecom pli.Mied, saving- time and lalx r. and It I loe not get out of position after once being set properly, as the wire snd i Fti-up combinations are apt to do. The l luirness may be cliftnged In less than one-quarter of the time usually requir I cil on other looms. The patent warp stop motion and the mechanical stop slip motion are noteworthy feature. The friction drive is a great power raver, la that no power is lost when the loom is started. The loom requires only one-quarter the amount of time i-'-quired to chance the slip spools on Ihe ordinary loom, and the warps be ing overhead are always before the op erator. It has 865 pieces less than four ordinary looms raquire in their construction. This loom also has a patented dou- lbie crank, shaft which causes the lays to beat up tne laoric on Dotn sides at the samo time, thereby balancing the loom perfectly, which action pro duces a more even fabrlo, eliminating i-mashes. It has been In practical op eration for over a year and has proved to be even better than the inventor claimed It to be. A large delegation from Westerly at tended the Providenoe board of trade boom banquet In the city Tuesday night, and were prominent among the twenty-five hundred present.

The civil suDerlor court was in Per sic n -il New London Tuf.-:lay, when the divorce case of Joseph W. Maynard of Ncrwich -3. Ida May .Maynard of Fish er's Island was the only one heard. Judge Ralph Wheeler, who is sitting on this session, reserved decision In the Maynard case until Friday. The divorce is aked by Maynard on the grounds of desertion. The case was not a strongly contested one, Mrs. Maynard admitting the technical de sertion, but claim in? that it was made necessary by the abusiveness of her husband, and putting In merely a pro forma defense to lot the court know of the eirournst.inct's. Maynard testified that he was mar ried Oct. 28. 1S88, to Ida May exton. He said that they had lived together in Norwich, Massrvpeag and fisher's I.-land. On Jan. 6, 1U05, while they were at Fisher's Island, he said that Mrs. Maynard deserted him and had never returned. Maynard said that he explained this desertion by his wife's fondness for a Mr. EUridfie, from whom t'e Maynards had rented tne house they occupied on r lsner s Iii-nd. -)ne dav M'uvnardi said he Mrs. Mavnard kiss EldriJge and that he remonstrated with her, telling her that "it wasn't setting a very good example for the children." The same nisrht Mrs. Maynard. witness said, re fused to occupy the same room as the witness and from then on did not gtt his meals, make his bed or in any way tend to ms personal wants. Mrs. Maynard said in her behalf n the witness stand that she had been forced to drive Maynard from their house at Fisher's Island because lie was so abusive. She admitted that in so doing she had committed technical desertion, but that she had done n she had because It was best for he-elf and children. Mrs. Maynard said, that she had decided to enter a defense on the advice of friends, although she hoped tno decree would be granted for her own sake and for the children's interests. Both parents wish the custody of the second sin, Willard. who is now with the mother, and the contest was renllv over him. The case of Isabella Perry vs. Isa bella Rodero went off the assignment list, and so did the case of Jane L. Burrows, appeal from probate, as the appellant has died since the case was assigned. Today the slrisrle case of Lucy B. Col lins et al., appeal from probate, la down for trial. This case was started something over a year ago, when an application was made to Judge of Probato Alfred Colt of New London for the removal of William H. Penkham as administrator of the estate of Evelina B. Tinker. Al the time .of the death of Mrs. Tinker it was thought that the estate compiled the homestead at Four Corners, Jor dan, and several thousand dollars' worth of United States government bonds, purchased during the Civil war and deposited in a sal'sdeposit vault in one of the New London banks, and which tho administrator claimed he was unable to find. The will of the deceased was a peculiar document. It was claimed at the time that the alter ations were made in th? records at tl o probato court in that the names of Harry and Byron Tinker naa Deen in serted. Harry Tinker is at present at tlie Connecticut school for imheies at Lakeyillo and Byron Is at the Nor wich hospital for the insane. There ire sever?! wills ?.t present !.i existence, none of which, It is claimed. 15 the original, Which, after diligent searching, has not been brought to light. The will provides that Mr. Tinker, Who Is now 87 years of age, should be provided with means of support for the remainder of his life, and thi3 he claims he has never received. A. O. H.

DR, KAUFMAN SPEAKS ON THE EMMANUEL MOVEMENT, Interesting Paper at Norwich District Ministers' Conference. At the second day of the Norwich District Methodist Mlmsters- comer' nio of VMos.m on Tuesday many in tisretting pa.per3 were heard. In the mnminir PrMtidina- Eider J. H. New- lnnri niki on Conversation on the

xw Tump I rt Mne. In the afternoon Dr. M. S. Kaufman spoke on The Emmanuel Movement ab f.,M..-j- I. What it Is. Two years ago last November the Rev. Dr. Elwood Wor cester, rector of Emmanuel Bpico;al cnuivh Boston, after extended consul tation 'with the leading neurologists of New England, Inaugurated a plan for fearing functional disorders of the nervous system. It has been carried on with marvelous results and with the endorsement of some eminent phy sicians. No organic diseases are at tacked these being wisely left to train ed physicians and skilled surgeons. Every patient applying for treatment ts required to bring a careful diasmosfs from an accredited physician, with an -rr.reecerl opinion that relief can be afforded by the Emmanuel forces. Rca Ir, Samuel MOComb, associated with Dr. Worcester defines the movement as an attempt to weld into friendly alliance the most advanced medico psychological knowledge of our time and a primitive New Testament Chiifc tianity, as scholarship has disclosed it, with a view to the relief of human suffering and the transformation of human character. He contends that it is nothing if not scientific that is in harmony with the latest discoveries and most rational inferences of true science. It rests upon a theistic basis and not pantheistic. It accepts per sonalism as the only correct explana tion r," cuA's universe, as Its ground and life Its guide and governor. And farther, its interpretation of the Bible and the facts of human experience accords with the evangelical view of Christianity. Its watchword Is "Back to Christ," and to the healing agencies so prominent in the apostolic church. It aims to unite the educated physi cian and the educated minister in such a way as to make them mutually help. much more serviceable to suf fering humanity than either could be alone without the assistance of the other. It ia proposed that each small supplement and reinforce the efforts of the other. Where one can c,hase a thousand, two may put ten thousand to fllThl3 movement' does not pretend to work miracles, but it does repon many hundreds of cures by very sim ple means. II. Its Methods. These ministers who undertake to help their patients meet them in a friendly way, -at the church, usually, and inquire sympa thetically but thoroughly Into the na ture of their troubles. Ascertaining as nearly as possible the real cause of the ailment, they seek in various ressonahle wavs to remove the cause. They aim to remove unfounded doubts and fears concerning God's goodness and His good will toward them. They also emphasize the healing efficacy of true faith and real prayer, to emi nent a psychologist as Prof. J. Wil liam James of Harvard says: "As regards prayers for the sick, if any medical fact can be considered to stand firm. It is that in certain en vironments prayer may contribute to recovery and should be encouraged as a therapeutic measure." This movement recognixes tho latest conclusions regarding the subconscious mind as a fertile field in which to employ suggestion and auto-suggestion. It aims to eliminate from the fcoul all Immoral, harmful, weakening elements and to strengthen within it all moral and spiritual forces in order to. ally It as closely ub possible with God and His saving, healing potency.. III. Its merits lie in its determina tion to keep in closest touch with the medical profession at its best; in ac cepting sanely the most approved sci ence of our day, its soundest philoso phy and the evangelical view of Chris tianity. Another high merit is Its dis interested character. The two chief leaders decline to ac-ept any remuner ation for their services. Up to the present time these clear headed, warm hearted, pure motived, humble minded men are loyal to the church and firm believers in the Deity of our Lord. There Is 'apparently providential merit in its name Emmanuel. "God with us." This is the inner inspiration of (he entire undertaking. This Is Its Godward side. It is also to Its credit that it dares use all means which ex perience has tested and proved effec tive in restoring health such as psy chology, medicine, mental suggestion Christian science, laitn cure, new thought and old, appropriating their strength discarding their weakness extracting their grain, throwing ftwav their chaff, and under the leadership tit Christ seek to accomplish a!; tnat is promised to His faithful followers. With all these merits it certainly has more to commend It to thoughtful Christian people than any healing cult outside of the church. IV. Its Perils. Doubtless these are many and serious. Every good thing is liable to be abused. 1. The nattering successes attend ing It may in time turn the heads of Its leaders and allure them into weak enlng follies. 2. It is liable to scandalous misuse by persons assuming its grave respon t.ib:':1ties, who are wanting in the nee essary qualineations. it is self-evident that only the exceptional minister could meet adequately the difficult and delicate demands of such service. 3. There is danger of it sufforin severely at the hands of those who will exploit it for financial advan tages 4. IiiKtead of bringing the two great professions of medicine and the minis try into closer harmony there is real danger of widening the space between them. 5. There Is also the peril of placing too much stress upon mere health and happiness, to the detriment of stal wart, robust self-sacrifice and consum ing service for all mankind. 6. Closely allied to the above Is the peril of magnifying the value of the body to the neglect of the more per manent part of man's Immortal personality. FEBRUARY 24V 1909. 7. The danger of substituting non essentials for life's true essentials. That the Emmanuel movement has decided merits when wisely directed there can he no candid question. Thht it is beset with serioua perils la equally evident. It is also significant that the attitude toward it of the medical pro fession and of the religious press is one of conservatism and criticism. Notwithstanding all this, It is -widening ltg Influence and .activities and multi plying Its victories. It ought to be ac corded the freest reasonable chance to demonstrate its claims without need less opposition. If it Is' of God It will triumph. If not It ought to fail. Time will tell.

Baker, who is featured in the role of CJrenfall Lorry, the ideal American in Oeorge Barr SlcCutch eon's play of "Graustark," or "A Love Behind a Throne." is an actor of wide experience who made his professional debut several years ago playing ieaa ir.g leading juveniles with Walker Whiteside, and later gained valuable experience as the leading man of the Bush Temple theater, Chicago, and Metropolitan theater, Minneapolis, dramatic .stock companies, afterward playing the lead in "Old Kentucky.' He later played Important roles with Mary Shaw, E. S. VVUlard and other prominent stars, attracting the atten tion of William A. Brady and Jos. P.. Grismer, who engaged hirn for the role of Rev. John St. John in their pro duction of "As Ye Sow," which part he played three hundred and thirty- six times. According to the critics. Mr. Baker k the ideal Grenfall Lorry, giving the part that depth and touch of comedy which is so ably depicted In the char acter in the book, and also posses sing the ability and requisite temper ament to tiortray the sentiment, love scenes and strong dramatic climaxes n n artistic manner. Mr. Baker is a native of Chicago, and until he entered the theatrical nifevsion v. as a student at the uni versity of Chicago, where he graduat ed, and later accepted a position as a cartoonist and artist on the Chicago Tribune, which occupation he followed until entering the theatrical profes sion. "Graustark" comes to the Broad way theater this evening. BREED THEATER. High Class Moving Pictures and Illus trated Songs. A most interesting picture shown at tKis popular theater last evening was the one entitled The Octoroon, and deals with race conditions in the south during slavery days. The costuming of the characters Is most accurate, and the scenery of that particular locality fs most clearly shown, giving one a very excellent idea of the conditions and characteristics of both races of this section. This is a very long film and the story is told very completely, while the interest is retained until the very last moment, when the story is ended very satisfactorily. Another picture dealing with condi tions of a different sort In the south is the one entitled The Feud and the Turkey, and is a story of heart inter est, utilizing as it does the love af fairs of two children of two opposing factions, with the- natural opoosition to such. The Poor Singing Girl is a story of a street singer, and gives the audience a chance to become acquaint ed with the -home conditions of a street singer and the varied incidents relative thereto. The comic field is covered by the two Alms entitled The Swimming Lesson and the Poster Chase; these have fairly convulsed the large audiences that have bene present at each performance. Madam Morelle has captivated her audiences with her magnetic singing and at every performance is greeted with hearty apnlause. She sang at lost night's performance the brilliant waltz song. Heart of My Heart, and followe-a by the- skating song. Roll Me Around, and was compelled to sing two encores as a result. George Coop er sang the new popular song. O, You Kid. which Is accompanied by a set of beautiful slides, superbly colored, nnd taken in and about an' extensive greenhouse. These attractions can be seen for the last time on Wednesday, and the nfw bill for Thursday bids fair to be one of the most excellent yet He Should Sift the Evidence. It is often pleasanter to theorize than to perform. A young law student, says a writer in the Philadelphia Inquirer noo manioc a siuoy or certain process es of his future profession. He s-howed an inclination to sit in the house and speculate idly, instead of doing some of the domestic tasks which stood waiting. "Deduction is an interesting process," declared the youth to his father. "For example, there is a heap of ashes In the yard. That is evidence that the family lias recently had fires." "Well, John," interposed his father, "suppose you pursue ypur studies a lit tle farther by going out and sifting that evidence." Senator Jonathan Bourne of Oregon, is a connoisseur of apples and coffee. He personally "bruises" and then brews his coffee on his dining table. The Del-Hoff, HAYES BROS, Proprietor. DroadnOT-.
