The large collection of war pictures which are on free exhibition at the Museum of the New Britain Institute are attracting large crowds daily. The public in general, however, is not oware of the fact that these world famous cartoons are on exhibition in this city only for one week. On Saturday night the pictures will be packed and shipped to Bridgeport. One of' New Britain's leading cit- ~ s izens, on seeing the pictures last eve- ning, stated that he wished every man and woman ‘in the city could see them. “Nobody has any tonception of what the European war means,” h stated, “until one sees these picture: ‘These same cartoons have been ex- hibited in New Yorky Boston, Prov- idemce and other large cities, and New Britain is very fortunate in having them here, if only for one week. The Boston Transcript, in an editorial, says: “If the measure of the influ- ence wielded by a cartoonist is the extent and intensity of the emotion aroused by his work, then possibly there has never been a cartoonist in the history of the world who can be compared ywith Raemaeker's.” The press in every city where these cartoons have been shown has spoken of the artist’s work in the highest terms. . There are 125 cartoons on exhibi- tion at the Institute Museum, and they cover'the walls of the large art room. It is a really wonderful ex- hibition and all who can should make an effort to see it. The museum is open daily from 2 to 6 in the after- noon, and from 7 to 9 o'clock in the evening. . TIERNEY CADETS' MINSTRELS. Boy Singers Prepare to Furnish Over- ture at Church Bazar.

A little later people in office buildings as far north as Liber- ty street were choking from the smoke and others between City Hall park and the Battery were going from their of- fices to the street in the belief that, from the density of the smoke, the fire was probably on the same block as themselves. The narrow streets leading to the block where the fire was raging were soon jammed by thousands of people. When Chief Kenlon arrived at the second alarm he ordered the fire lines extended, and, giving up all hopes of saving the burning warehouse, began to concentrate his efforts on saving adjoining buildings. Several lines of hose were run up to the roofs and upper stories of nearby buildings on the other sides of the street. Without hoping to put the blaze out in the oil warehouse the firemen kept 'playing eleven streams on it to smother the flames so that they could not spread. Rivers of water were poured into the building from 4:45 until about 6:30 o’clock without making any apparent impression on the fire, which still con- tinued to ‘pour up smoke, which made it hard for the eye to penetrate more than 100 yards in any part of lower Manhattan and gave rise to the belief in Brooklyn that a conflagration was raging between the financial district and the water front. At 6:30 o’clock the roof and most of the flooring had fallen, so that there was little to feed the blaze above the street level. With thick walls of brick confining the fire on all sides and the blazing ofl and woodwork floating on water several feet deep into the base- ment, the fire was pronounced under control, although it was still produc- ing a great deal of smoke. The fire department gave out no estimate of the damage. $30,000 JEWELRY THEFT. lme\'es at Work While Funeral Services Are Held, New York, April 5.—Thieves, tak- ing advantage of the grief and con- fusion attending a funeral in the home of Edward Walsh Humphreys, at No. 9 East Sixty-fifth street, Tues- day afternoon, stole a casket of jewels from the bedroom of Mrs. Humphreys, on the second floor. The police said last night the stolen jewels were valued at more than $30,000, It is probable they were worth more than $65,000, the value for which they were insured against burglary. It was the second important jewel robbery in the Fifth avenue district in less than two weeks. The lome of Mrs. William McNair, at No, 5 East Seventy-ninth street, was robbed of Jewels valued at $38,700 on March 22. RECRUITING STATION HERE.

Exhilarated with a superfluous load of “jgv juice,” Don- lon entered Maxwell & Hill's lunch cart where he created a disturbance. After being ejected from the place he secured a large stone and without the formality of winding up he shot it high and fast, and as a result the door of the cart shows the effects of his aim. In ‘court this morning he pleaded guilty to the charge of drunkenness but disclaimed . any knowledge of the stone throwing episode. . Judge Meskill sentenced him to jail for thirty days. Charles Patkus of Hartford avenue can thank his aithful wife for escap- ing as lightly as he did this morning when arraigned on a charge of breach of peace and drunkepness. It was al- leged that the acclised went home yesterday and raised havoc for a time, until neighbors were forced to notify the police. This morning Mrs. Patkus pleaded for another chance for her husband. Judge Meskill gave patkus some straightforward talk, sus judgment and placing him in charge of ‘the probation officer. e ————————g BE PRETTY! TURN GRAY HAIR DARK Look young! Nobody can tell if you use Grandmother’s simple recipe of Sage Tea and Sulphur. Almost everyone. knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compound- ed, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was Yo make it at home, which is mussy and trouble- some. Nowadays, by asking at any drug store for “Wyeth’s Sage and Sul- phur Compound,” you will get a large bottle of this famous old recipe, im- proved by the addition of other ingre- dients, for about 50 cents. Don’t stay gray! Try it! No one can possibly tell that you darkened your' hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly.. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears and after another ap- plication or two, yourpy hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy and attrac- tive. Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Com- pound is a delgihtful toilet requisite for those who desire dark hair and a youthful appearance. It is not in- tended for the cure, mitigation or pre- vention of disease. ending | McMILLAN “Always STORE, Inc.

Chatip Clark Advises Enthusiasts in Galleries to Enlist. ‘Washington, April 5.—"You had better go downtown and enlist,” was the advice given to men in the house galleries by Speaker Clark yesterday in rebuking them for applauding .a speech by Representative Kahn of California. Mr. Kahn was saying that it was necessary to train American soldiers for at least one yedr before they were sent to the European trenches. The galleries’ applauded several times when Mr. Kahn told of the danger of the “slaughtering” of Americans if they were sent unpre- pared to European battlefields. “The rules of the house forbid the people in the galleries to applaud or show dissent or assent regarding any- thing said on the floor,” said Speaker Clark. ““The men up there who ap- plauded had better go downtown and enlist.” NEW SPORT BLOUSES Ten new numbers of the smartest popular priced Blouses of the season.
