It has now been settled that the institution will havo its headquarters on Cecil Rhodes old cstate at Groote Schuur. The ex- isting “‘South African college” will be the nucleus of the new university.

(Correspondence of The Assoclated Press.) *Dublin, Ireland, Nov. 16.—Emigra- tion from Ireland for the first nino months of this year shows 7,672 per- sons sailing, as against 17,057 for the first nine months of 1914, and the total ' figures of 30,967 for 1913 dropped to 20,314 in 1914. During the first four months of this year 4,653 emigrants went to the United States as compared with 12,609 in the same period of last year, while only 519 went to Canada as against 2,768. These figures, taken from the latest report of the Irish Registrar General, are interesting in view of the comn- troversy that has artsen about Irish emigration since the war. SOLDIERS FIND STATUE. (Correspondence of The Assoclated Press.) 10.—A mutilated statue of KEros, discovered by French troops in the course of trench dig- ging excrcises on the island of Lem- prove to be a find of great al importance. The statue was uncovered on the site of the ancient town of Haephestia, . which once boasted 60,000 inhabitants, and the condition of the statue is said to give conclusive evidence that the city was destroyed by a_ terrible earth- quake and not by an invader, as had herctofore been thought likely.

Plainville News FACTORIES RUSHED; CLOSE SINGLE DAY Business With Local Concerns In- dicative of Prosperity APPEAL CAUSES DELAY Cousins Will Contest Claims of Wil- liam Coughlin Against Uncle's Es- tate—Havtford Man Fined For Drunkenness—Chicken Thieves Busy Although local maufacturing cerns do not benefit directly con- by the huge war orders that have been placed in this country by the belligerents in Europe they have been favored by a most gratifying increase in business and the heads of the various compan- ics report that conditions at the pres- ent time indicate a winter of almost unparelleled prosperity for the factor. owners and the employes as well. Owing to the pressure of business the officers of local corporations have decided to close their plants for but a single day for Thanksgiving and all the shops will resume operations Fri- day morning. Some of the concerns have many rush orders on their books and they have to operate some depart- ments in their factories on overtime schedules. Seemingly there is plenty of work for all who are willing to enter the factories and there is a good demand for heip here as well as elsewhere. Un- less there is a sudden change in con- ditions the manufacturers expect to omit the Christmas vacation this year and it is likely that the plants will be shut down but a day .or two for the holiday, Thanksglving day will be observed here in the usual manner. The stores will be closed practically all day and there will be a general suspension of business. Grocers will have their places open a short time in the morn- ing to accommodate the trade. The barber shops will be open until 11 o'clock tonight and will be closed all day tomorrow. Many of the teachers in the local schools are planning to spend the day at their respective homes. The schools will not be in n until Mond g 1 family reunions planned in town and in many homes arrange- ments have been made to entertain large parties of relatives from other places. re Masons at Funeral.

Boynton, which will he held tomorrow afte at o'clock from his home on Broad str Mr. Boyn- ton wa a Mason for many vears and the lodge to which he belonged has arranged to pay respects to 'ais mem- ory tomorrow. The members will meet at Masonic temple on East Main street at 2:30 and will march in a rmoon body to the Boynton residence. The services at the house will be conducted by Rev. A. A. Houck, pas- tor of the Methodist church, with which Mr- Boynton was prominently identified for years. The funeral will be Masonic in character and at the grave in West cemetery the lodge will have committal services. ‘Will Prevent Distribution. The action of Charles F. Conlon in taking an appeal from the deci- sion of Judge Newell, accepting the report of James Gray as administrat- or on the estate of Patrick Coughlin, will again delay the distribution of the eccentric bachelor's wealth and it is likely that the numerous heirs will not receive their share for several months, unless the contest on certain claims is settled out of court. Bills aggregating $732, presented by M and Mrs. William J. Coughlin, which were approved by the adminis- trator, form the bone of contention, and Judge Newell's action in permit- ting their payment resulted in the ap- peal made yesterday. The Coughlins, who are to share in the distribution of the estate, Mr. Coughlin belng numbered among the nephews, want pay for forty-two weeks for board- They also seek com- pensation for caring for the eccentric old man and for the trouble and in- convenience they were put to while the body was at their home, Conlon’s appeal is supported by ITGHING ECZEMA COVERED ENTIRE BODY, RESINOL CURED Could Not Sleep. 8 Remedies had Failed. Resinol Stopped Itching Immediately. Boston, Mass., Aug. 11, 1914—“My entire body, even my eyelids, was com- pletely covered with blisters as large as & pea. When one would burst water would come from it, and then it would turn into a very painful sore. The burning and_itching were something terrible, and I COUL% NOT SLEEP nor rest. I think I had one of the worst cases of eczema a human being ever had. “I used eight different kinds of rem- edies without success. I then tried Rcsinpl Ointment and Resinol Soa; and it stopped the itching IMME- DIATELY. I gradually noticed a change for the better.

Relatives who were anticipating a stice of the Coughlin wealth as a Christmas gift now fear that they will have to continue to wait for their share of his fortune. Kined for Drunkenness. Charles Griffin of Hartford, arrested vesterday morning by Constable Downing, was fined $1 and costs for intoxication last evening by Justice E. P. Prior. The man was found on the sidewalk on West Main street in a helpless condition and was so drunk that he couldn’t tell his name. In court he revealed his identity and explained that he was on his way from Hartford to Bristol to work. He was making the trip by team. In New Britain he visited one of the sa- loons, he said, and had a few drinks. They had an unexpected effect and vhen got as far as Plainville he fudec nd fell from the carriage. He had a good reputation and Jus- tice Prior was inclined to be lenient with him. “The Newspaper Game. John J. Daly, editor of the Herald, gave an informal talk before the Holy Name society of the Church of Our Lady of Mercy at a social session held last evening in Grange hall. Mr. Daly's address concorned the growth of the newspaper since the Civil War. The speaker also related some interesting experiences in the lives of reporters in metropolitan cities, and gave some personal reminiscences that proved en- tertaining. There were brief talks by Rev. T. Walsh and Rev. W. P. Kilc and a musical program furnished the Holy Name Cl‘,urlls. The young men rendered a number of selections in most pleasing fashion and gener- ously responded with encores. Rivers Wants Compensation. Frank Rivers of Farmington ave- nue is planning to seek compensa- tion from (. S. Mason of Farmington for injuries which he sustained a few weeks ago while in the latter's em- ploy. Rivers was unloading goods from a wagon when a box fell on him, injuring his chest. He was at- tended by Dr. J. C. Tanner, Tt is understood that the Aetna Tn- surance company through which Mr. Mason is protected from claims un- der the employers’ 'lability act, will dispute any bill for compensation for Mr. Rivers on the grcunds that he went to work within ten days after the accident. They will advance the claim that he delivered vegetables about town five days after he was hurt. Chicken Thieves Busy. Chicken thieves are reported to be very active around town and the own- ers of hennerles are putting extra locks on their coops. Raids have been made in several yards during the past week and some choice birds have dis- appeared from their usual haunts. A Broad street resident reported to- day that twenty-seven birds were taken from his hennery Monday nigat.
