The Kind You Have Always Bought ens (T < £4 TIGERS NO STRANGERS IN EAST HAVEN Selectmen Have Had Previous Protests Regarding “Blind Tigers” on . East Shore Resort. New Haven, May 26.—It is said to be unlikely that the East Haven se- lectmen will take any action concern. ing the presence of a number of jungle animals on a farm in South End, unless someone sees fit to make a complaint. It takes more than a few lions and tigers in captivity to arouse the East Haven authorities to action and they refuse to become ex- cited over the newspaper stories of the menagerie at the Coyne farm, that is within the limits of East Haven. The fact is that nearly everyone who lives in East' Haven keeps some kind of animals and the selectmen fail to see how they can differentiate be- tween wild animals in captivity and dogs, cats, cows and chickens, which are kept in abundance by nearly everyone in the old town. An at- tempt fo slap a license fee on the Kkeeper of the wild beasts would re- sult' in a retaliatory measure against the keeper of chickens, cats, cows, horses and dogs. An East Haven resident who jour- neyed to town yesterday, declared that it was a well known fact that tigers were no, strangers to East Haven or the East Haven selectmen. “Why, it is no secret in East Ha- ven and elsewhere,” said the FEast Havenite, “‘that there have »een ‘blind tigers’ on the South End shore and all along the east shore and some- times inland for years. The pres- ence of these ‘tigers’ has been known to the selectmen. Sometimes there havp been mild protests but they have always been met with the explanation that these ‘tigers’ were very well be- haved and so isolatd that they really did no harm. Therefore they have been permitted to exist. - Having winked. at the ‘blind tigers’ for years, it would certainly be inconsistent for the East Haven selectmen to abject to a few real live, wide-open_eved tigers, also lions in our midst. The ‘blind tigers’ are said to have been very tame and docile, so much so that there has never been any fear on the part of the East Haven officials or residents of venturing into the terri tory where they were located.” “TOO MANY NOTES AND NO ACTION” “Uncle Joe” Cannon Declares, Com- menting Upon American Protest to Germany of Sinking of Lusitania, San Francisco, Cal., May ,26.—Con- gressman Joseph G. Cannon of Illinois and twelve colleagues arrived here yesterday from Honolulu. Mr. Can- non said he had not read the gov- ernment’s note to Germuny about the Lusitania. “But,” Nie added, “there are many notes and no action.” Party lines, those arriving today sald, remain unbroken on the question of free sugar, Most of the contingent said they favored additional fortifi- cations on the islands. Twenty-nine members of the con- gressional party of 140 persons, which left several weeks ago for a tour of the islands, returned yesterday. too LUTHER LEAGUE MEETS.
