It was not a pleasant occasion. Men Who had pitted themselves against seach other in the past year said fare- well with sincere regret. ©Old scars ‘were healed by the hand of friendship angd the parting was made a solemn and sorrowful occasion. To Mayor Joseph M. Halloran, who has presided over the deliberations of the council for the past four years, all paid tribute and while welcoming the new starin the legislatuve firma- ment they gave the hand of friend- ship to him who was leaving for the léss turbulent role of private citizen. They extended to him their best wishes for future successes and as- sured him that they would always re- call their association with him as one of the bright features of their lives. ‘The farewell was the silvery lining to the .cloud of politics. There was none who did not feel the solemnity of the occasion. Sincerity rang true in every word spoken and the part- ing of the ways was shown to be a matter of deep regret. Quigley Lauds Halloran. Alderman George A. Quigley, who succeeds to the sceptre which Mayor Halloran relinquishes, was among those Who extended his tnanks for the <ourtesy and fairneds shown by Mayor Halloran, during, his incumbency of the magistracy..

Ald. Christ Speaks For Council Alderman E. W. Christ, the floor leader of the republican party, voiced the sentiments of the council, he said, in extending to Mayor Halloran its appreciation of his courtesy and fairness as presiding officer of the body. He said he was sincere when he told Mayor Halloran that he ré- gretted the fortunes of politics that took him from their midst. He said the council had tried to do its best | by Mayor Halloran and he asked that any errors in that respect be forgiv- ien. He /4also asked that the council extend the same spirit to Mayor-elect | Quigley when he assumed office, Al- ;derman Christ bade farewell to the | retiring members of the council and i expressed the best wishes of those who are to remain. be Mayor Halioran Says Good-bye, In reply, Mayor Halloran said: “I have now finished eleven years continuous service as a member of the common council of New Britain at this time to extend my sincere thanks for the considera- tion shown me since I have peen may- or by both the democrats and repub- 1 have tried to be fair and I sponsibilities of the office. 1 will carry with me the kindest remem- brances of my associations with the council and will always recall the spent with you.” In reply to what Alderman Christ said, Alderman M. T. Kerwin, the floor leader of the democrats, said his party stood for squareness and would accord a fair deal to the new mayor. Mayor-Elect to Mayor. “I have served in the common council for two years under your honor,” said Mayor-elect Quigley ad- dressing Mayor Halloran, “and while there have been some stormy periods d know that that is forgotten. Your honor has had the regard of this common council and I hope when [ am mayor I will be treated similarly. I don’t want anyone to consider me as the mayor of the republican party —1I will be the mayor of .all the peo- ple and of the whole city. “I wish to thank your honor for the courtesies you have extended me in the past two years. In the com- ing two years I will do all ‘in my power to promote the welfare of the city and I hope for the support of the common council. I wish to thank your honor also for your man- ly offer to assist me in matters re- garding the office of mavor.” Alderman Ohlson’s Ideal City. One of the most striking farewell speeches was that delivered by Al- derman Ohlson of the fourth ward, who has filled that position for seven years. After expressing his gratitude for the treatment accorded him he said: “I am proud of New Britain. I love New Britain. This city stands well in comparison to other municipali- ties yet there is room for improve- ment. I have in mind an ideal city. The doors of the saloons should be closed. Moving pictures should not be permitted as they are harmful to children and aduilts. And we should have a close observance of the Sab- bath and obey the law of God above City Clerk A. L. Thompson ex- pressed his thanks of the treatment accorded him by Mayor Halloran and members of the council. In conclusion the council ‘thanked City Clerk Thompson, John Heming- way, superintendent of the city building, ‘and representatives of the press who are assigned to cover the council meetings.

Grape Juice Habit Strong in Texas. It is interesting to know that the largest single shipment of Grape Juice ever made is now enroute from the factory of Armour and Company, at Westfleld, N. Y., to be distributed among the markets of our State. This shipment consists of a solid train of twenty-five carloads of Grape Juice, and is a very convincing proof that the favorite beverage of -Secretary Bryan, and other notables, is algo fast becoming the favorite drink of the masses. . It is marvelous to note with what strides the grape juice habit has de- veloped. One does not have to go very far back to find when it first commenced to take hold. That it has become so firmly established in so short a time is undoubtedly due to its proven advantages as a healthful beverage and its thirst-satisfying qualities, backed up by judicious ad- vertising through all mediums. Nat- urally, a progressive state like Texas has recelved its full share of adver- tising expenditures, and is well in, the van of the grape juice procession. This shipment only furnishes &4 sug- gestion of what Texas will do to grape Juice next summer, But there is some underlying cause 'in all of this, immeasureably greater than mere advertising and the genius of the sales manager. It is taste— just popular taste. Grape Juice is destined to become the Great Ameri- can Drink!—advt. “TI" GLADDENS SORE, TIRED FEET “TIZ” makes sore, burning, tired feet fairly dance with delight.

Judge William F. Mangan has a unique question which he puts to! prisoners in police court who are; brought before him immediately after they have served terms in jail. “How did you like it up in jail?"” he asked two prisoners this morning. Foth admitted that life on Seyms street could be improved upon. Gustave Dahlstrom, who was brought down from jail this morning, informed the-judge that he was ready | to reform and not allow his feet to : stray from the straight and narrow path. He was placed on pmobation. Margos Margosian, whose daughter | made a rope of stockings and climbed down from a third story window to inform the police that the family was in terror of her father, told Judge Mangan that he didn't like jail, either. He was told that he must re- main away from his family, as they do not want him. At this he ap- peared deeply dejected, but would not agree to abide by the court’s in- structions to stay away from his wife and children. He was told that he would have to go back to jail if he did not promise to follow instructions and he said he would prefer jail to being continually absent from his family. He was taken back this af- ternoon. JOSE ORTIZ DEAD.
