That another effort may be made to get the voters to have the town join with the state and Connecticut com- pany in the extension of the perma- nent pavement area through Whiting street to the point where the trolley tracks turn onto private property, the amiesite to extend from curb to curb, was intimated today by citizens inteér- ested in the improvement. They talked of asking the selectmen to call a special town meeting at once to con- sider the question. Immediate action is necessary if the town is to order the contractors to have the pavement the full width of the highway, instead of a strip in the center, as the laying of the amiesite will probably be started in a week oy ‘| ten day The macadam is now being torn up for the improvement, and the paving material may be put in posi- tion before the town gets an oppor- tunity to lend its co-operation, ‘unless arrangements are made for immediate consideration of the making of an ap- propriation to cover a portion of the expense.

Interfering with constables in the performance of their duty caused the arrest last night of John Dobruck of New Britain, who is in the lock-up awaiting a hearing before Justice A. H. Condell. The young man, it is al- leged, attempted to prevent Officers Marino and Anderson from removing to a livery, stable a horse, which ap- parently had been overdriven, and which the owner had ordered them to ‘shelter. " With a young man named Farrell,. Dobruck hired a team at White's liv- ery stable in New Britain early last evening. They told the man in charge, the authorities claim, that they were going to Berlin. Instead they came to Plainville to attend the firemen’s fair. When the outfit ar- rived here the horse looked as if it had been driven too hard. It had lost a shoe and seemed to be in distress. The police communicated with the dwner who instructed them to take the animal from the young men. Do- bruck objected to the interference of the officers and remonstrated so for- cibly that they took him into custody.

Ossining, April 20.—Barely three hours before the time set for his exe- cution, Petrius C. Von Der Corput was snatched from the electric chair | today by a telephone order from Gov- ernor Whitman at Albany, when hc was to have paid the death penalty at 5:45 o'clock this morning for the murder of Mrs. Barbara Wright, whom he stabbed in New York city in October, 1914. Early last night the governor de- clined to interfere with the exegution, but at 2:30 a. m. today he gave his consent to have it postponed until Saturday morning.

The urine is cloudy, full of sediment. channels often get sore, water scalds and you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night. - Either consult a good, reliable phy- sician at once ar get from your phar- macgist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of ‘water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com- bined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize acids in the urine o it no longer ir- ritates, thus ending bladder weakn Jad Salts is a life saver for regular meat eaters.
