U-BOATS SLIP PAST BRITISH SEA GUARD Reid on Channel Only a Blind to Hide Their Escape London, Nov. 10. man Six or more Ger- submarines broke through the British blockade and ring of defences ander cover of the recent raid by Ger- | man warships and have been operat- ing extensively off the southern coast of France. The raid carried out by enemy war- ships on the shipping route between | the Thames and Holland, on Novem- ber 1, this report says, /'was a blind to get half a dozen or more U-boats through the channel. That it suc- ceeded is evidenced by the unusual activity of submarines in these waters during the last few days. Their roll of victims this week has been excep- tionally high. The British naval authorities are making strenuous efforts to trap some of the raiders, it 18 said. The channel patrol has been augmented and a watch is being kept night and day for any sign of the submarinés. The few critics who share knowml- edge of the presence of thé enemy submersibles express the opinion that by now most of them must have és- caped and returned to their bases. The continued sinking of vessels in this region, however, suggests that a few ENIER, PICKHARDT & DUNN 77 AN STREET. OPPOSITE ARCH.

MEXICAN SITUATION I5 GROWING WORSE With Election Over, U. S. May Become Less Fatherly Washington, Nov. 10.—The situa- | tion in northern Mexico was described as ‘very bad” yesterday by Serremry' Lansing, who indicated that the whole Mexican problem will now be taken up energetically by the administra- | tion. The pre-election political atmos- phere admittedly caused this govern- | ment to refrain from making the se- riousness of the situation public. The state department’s chief con- | cern is the growing strength of the bandit bands operating in Chihuahua. Their increased strength constitutes a perpetual menace to the American border and blocks any efforts at real reform or consolidation of First Chief Carranza’s efforts to control the country. Although state department officials will not discuss the future prospects | of the joint American-Mexican com- mission, it is understood that Carran- 78’8 representatives will have to adopt a different course from that which they have hitherto pursued or this government will recommend theé suspension or abandonment of the commission. 1t will be made known definitely to Carranza that there will be no fur- ther discussion of the immediate withdrawal of Gen.

John Walsh, former mayor Britain and one of the best known members of the Hartford county bar, who for more than thirty years past has been an official ster ographer of the superior cour announced his intention of resigning. Because of his age, Judge Walsh failed of reappointment last June, but his continueq to serve since as his successor has not been anpointed. It is probable that Franklin T.

Mr. Brady has always been opposed to the Sunday closing law, particular- Iy as it is now enforced. It is com- mon knowledge that a Sunday night | rarely passes that the law is not vio- lated in one or more of the theaters | which give “sacred concerts” regular. Some times dancing acts are given, which is forbidden by the statute, often the players appear in costume and the curtain is raised and lowered and the settings changed, also against law. At their mecting Tuesday the man- agers will discuss the possibility of | having a special ruling made, giving ! them the right to present dramatic and musical plays in costume on the holiday eve.

His efforts to banish it brought out these little olive-colored tablets. These pleasant little tablets do the good that calomel does, but have no bad after effects. They don’t injure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. 30 do strong liquids. It is best not to take calomel, but to let Dr. Edwards’ Otive Tablets take its place, Most headaches, “dullness” and that lazy feeling come from constipation and a disordered liver.
