The roads and bridges committees reported favorably a bill taking over the Thames river railroad bridge for highway purposes and the report went to the appropria- tions commiteee in order o secure’ money to make operative the plan for taking over the bridge. The housc confirmed John F. Mc- Grath as judge at Waterbury to fill a vacancy and, concurring with the sen- ate, chose by ballot as judees of the superior court L. F. Burpee, E. B. Gager, Gardiner Greene, W. 8, Case and Donald T. Warner. All elections were unanimous except that of Judge Greene, against whom three votes were cast. The dules committee re- ported in the house unfavorably a pro- | posed change which was aimed byén. ference to exclude from the floor of the chamber any men who are promi- nent during the session by their pres- ence, but who have never been mem- bers of otheer branch. The house ac- cepted the report and rejected the pro- posed change. By agreement in conference the sen- | ate bill to raise a commission to inves- ! tifgate the jails of the state was sent to the judiciary committee and not to the committee on humane instituti- tions." . Commissioner Hall Praised. The senate agreed with the house in selecting the Rogers resoluhtion to have a sub-committee investigate' the conduct of Public Utllitles Commis- | sioner Hale in the matter of railroad facilities in Glastonbury.

Sl S N SRS CONSCIENCE FUND GROWS. War Has Tncreased Amount of Money Donater to Britain's Treasury. LOCAL MAN SAYS TROUBLES OF PAST YEARS ARE OVER AND IS CONSEQUENTLY VERY HAPPY Shou'd not one be happy and glad to have sickness that has laid a heavy hand on them for the past year or two disappear as if by magic? Such & man is Mr. Otfinowski of No. 4 Cemetery ‘Lane, this city. He says: “For the past year or two I have been a terrible sufferer from gas, bloat, sour acid stomach and chronic dyspep:ia. I was terribly constipat- ed and the mare medicines I took for it the more I seemed to. suffer. I had lost my appetite and felt run down and tired out and it seemed that as time went on it kept getting worse and worse. I am glad to say that I tried Herbal Lax-a-Tone and inuch to my surprise gand gratification' I am MR. JOHN O TFINOWSKI, E—————————————————————————————————————————————— today in excellent good health and | want to indorse this remedy to my friends in New Britain as I know it will give them wonderful resuits.” Many people in this city are exact- ly in the same condition as Mr. Ot finowsk! was and can get relief, said Mr. Martin the Lax-a-Tone expert at the Economy New England Drug Store, 365 Main street, the place where Lax-a-Tone is being introduced in 'New Britain and if the people will juct, take a few moments and run down and see Mr. Martin he can further convince them that Lax-a- Tone is the wonder of the century. He will remain until 10 p. m.

The Hew year promises even better, as inore than 4,000 pounds has come in during the past fortnight. The largest single contribution re- ceived by the Conscience Fund last year was 5,000 pounds. Even this payment does not constitute a record for in 1844 an envelope contalning 14,000 pounds in bank notes was re- ceived by the chancellor of the ex- chequer, with a memorandum stating that it represented profits derived from smuggling. BEST WAY IS TO STAY HOME. London, Feb. 9.—A white armlet for use at night time by pedestrians has been suggested by the London safety first council in its efforts to find a way to reduce the alarming in- arease in street accidents in Lon- don’s darkened thoroughfare. Other alternatives suggested were: A color scheme for street lamps and colored lighting for street safety isles, the use of luminous paint, and more ef- fective whitening mifiture for curbs. Cremation Advocated As Result | of Lack of Burial Cases London, Feb. 9.—A " new public danger threatens the country in tho | difficulties of burying the dead. takers, coffin-makers and grave-dig-- gers and has resulted in delaying fu- nerals for days, a condition which if aggravated by an epidemic would be- come very serious. .To forestall that danger and also to remedy the pyes- ent situation compulsory cremation is being advocated. The tribunals which sit in all parts of the country and hear appeals for exemptions from military service, have pressed into military service every man whose work is not indis- pensable to the existence of the na- tion. The result is that they have “combed out” the undertaking trade and taken most of the skilled grave- diggers for another sort of digging. It seems also that the shortage of coffins is countrywide. The head of the largest undertakingfirm in Lon- don which used to turh out between to add to the difficulties the railroad ! authorities have made a new regula- tion that nothing is to be sent over 112 pounds by passenger train. This means that coffing with a-few excep uons will have to be shipped on | freight trains. ‘“Bodies,” he said,’ “are walting at every London station for hours for lack of labor to fetch them away.” w | The Daily Mail has taken the lead in the campaign for cremation. It alsa sees a danger in toa many ceme- taries. “‘This reform of funeral pro- | cedure is long overdue,” says the pa- per. “It will have to extend evep ' more Important consideration of the ever-growing encroachment of ceme- taries upon land needed for building : It | or agticulture.” s caused by the scarcity of under. |°F 2 2 —e e BRIDES ARE'SAD. i | TLondon, Feb. 9.—The food con- | troller’'s ban on sugar-coated confec- tionary has made it necessary to get a special license for wedding cakes.

London, Feb. 9.—The ‘“hoarded treasure” of India is estimated By the financial review at over 400,000,000 pounds. Most of this is believed to 1 be hidden in comparatively sums. It is a financial axiom small in London that all the gold and silver which is sent to India annually by the British governmept ‘is immediate- ly absorbed and passes quickly out of; circulation. In India, however, this cxistence of any really important hid- den wealth is declared a myth. e The Great Western Market || ~USUAL BIG SATURDAY SALE ~ - §{ The Quality Store of Low Prices.
