At a meeting of the republican town committee Monday evening all the offi- cers were recommended to the caucus for renomination. In lieu of the argu- ment set forth by Judge Thomas H. Peabody, it was voted as a precaution- ary measure that Judge Edward Burke be recommended to the caucus as the republican nominee for judge of pro- bate. The caucus is to be held Thurs- day evening. There was recent dispute as to the control of the so-called Watch Hill wharf at Watch Hill when Capt. Ho- bart Babcock, owner of steamer Watch Hill, which plies between Stonington and the hill, proposed adding to the wharf and placing a building thereon for express and freight purposes. A/ meeting of the Watch Hill fire distr was called and it was voted that inas much as John Champlin, proprietor of the Ocean house, had been the chief contributor towards the building and maintenance of the wharf, he be de- ciared the managing owner. TFe then entered into an agreement with Cap- tain Babcock which permitted the en— largement of the whart and the erec- tion of a building thereon, provided Captain Babcock would sign a lease that contained stipulations relative to the proposed changes and uses of the whart. J Captain Babcock has failed to sign this lease and agreement and Mr. Champlin has enjoined him from mak- ing any changes in the wharf property The work, which had been commenced, has been stopped wuntil such time as there is adjustment of the ipulations to” the satisfaction of Mr. Champlin. The demolition of the Hoxie and Barber buildings on Sunday, which were located on leased ground at Watch HIill, is considered by some to be a bit of sharp practice, as no notice of injudetion could be legally served on that day. The buildings were taken down upon the direction of the West- which acquired the erly fire district, : s by purchase in connection with other waterside property along Bay HAPPY RESULTS Have Made Many Norwich Residents Enthusiastic. No wonder scores of Norwich citi- zens grow enthusiastic. It is enough to make anyone happy to find relief after years of suffering. Public state- ments like the following are but truth- ful representations of the daily work done in Norwich by Doan's Kidney Pills, Miss Amy M. WHeox, 38 McKinley Avenue, Norwich, Conn., says: “Doan’s Kidney Pills are entitled to my strongest recommendation. Of and on for some time I was annoyed to quite an extent by a dull, heavy ache across my loins and kidneys. Those who have had similar experiences will realize how much misery and incon- venience this complaint will cause. A friend, knowing how I was troubled, recommended Doan’s Kidney Pills and I procured them from N. D. Sevin & Sen’'s drug store.

The owners of these two buildings claimed that the buildings should have been bought with the land under vote of the fire district and - that buildings were unlawfuly razed. Messrs. Hoxie and Barber warned Con- traetor .Charles P. Ecclestone not to disturb the buildings when he arrived from Ashaway Sunday morning with a large force of men, but no heed was taken of the warning. Contractor Beclestone is a Seventh- day Baptist and a strict observer of Saturday, but he gives as a reason for doing the work at Watch Hill on Sun- day that he did mot want to disturb services on Sunday in an Ashaway church, near which he has work at present for a large force of men. He denies that he did the work at Watch Hill on Sunday to dodge the process server. A lawsuit may result from the demolition of the buildings. Prominent members of the junior class of Brown university, seventeen in number, are before the undergrad- uate body as candidates for election to the Cammarian club, the student gov- erning body for the year. Twelve of the number will be elected on May 28 by the members of the three upper classes. The successtul candidates will be “tapped” according to the cus- tom in chapel May 31. President Johnson of the present Cammarian eclub, upon reading the names ‘in chapel last Friday, urged the undergraduates to tonsider the candi- dates carefully. He warned asgainst politics entering iInto the election of the new club. C. Clarence-Maxson, Jr. of Westerly is among the candidates nominated. - Westerly will be represented at the annual reunion of the Twenty-first regiment, Connectiout volunteers, in Norwich today (Tuesday). Five sur— vivors of that regiment, all members of Company G, of North Stonington, are now residents of Westerly. They are First Lieut. Court G. Stanton, Paul H. Hillard, John B. Brown, Michael Welch, Albert F. Crumb and Charles A. Clark. There are other survivors of the regiment in_ this section, all of whom are active in matters pertaining to the Grand Army of the Republic. Migelo Boyer of weatuck visited some of his compatriots in Westerly Sunday evening and mede effort to col- lect some cash alleged to be due him. A row followed, in which the man from across the river was roughly handled. He claims there were fifteen men pounding him at the same time and as he was retreating from the attack- ing party he was struck in the head with a. clothespole. Migelo’s most se- vere injury was a cut in the forehead which required two stitches to close. He was bruised about the head and body and was so well satisfied with escaping serious injury that he filed no complaint with the police, It has been the oustom of the West- erly town council to elect a judge of probate, or for the council to act as a probate court when no judge was elected by that body or when the judge was personally interested in some spe- cial case, Therefore it was a surprise when the recent prohibition caucus nominated a candidate for judge of probate, naming Judge Thomas H. Pea- body for that office. Judge Peabody in explanation states plainly that the judgeship is an office that must be elected by the people and not by the seven men elected to the town council This disputed question will be fefinite- ly determined before the June election. Local Laconics. A. Cloran and family of Norwich for the J. have arrived at Pleasant View season. Insurance adjusters are in Westerly examining the claims for losses by the Barber Memorial building fire. Tce cream peddlers are forbidden to ring gongs in the streeis, but fisher- men are permitted to toot their horns. Councilman ang@ Mre. Albert H.

These steam- ers will add to the picturesque sea view from Watch Hill NEW APRIL RECORD. Freight Business in Waterbury Went Ahead of Anything Ever Before Known. April records for freight received and shipped from the local yards, exceeded all oth that are in the possession of the New Haven road. The business ded the record breaking figures of by a small percentage. ‘There have been months in the his- tory of the freight business of the ci when more cars were sent out and re- ceived, but these were at a season of the year when business was much bet- ter than it is in the early spring. No April record has come near to the present one. May business, too, is keeping up well and shows no inclination to rali below the excelient figures for the rest of the ar. There may be a slght slacking up later in the meonth, but it will not materially effect the month’s record. For the wegk ending May 6, of last year, incoming cars number 1,666, and the outgoing cars numbered 1,690. During the week ending May 6 in the present year the cars received num- bered 2,122 and the cars shipped from the city numbered 2.175. This is a total of 4,297, as compared with a total for the same week last year of 3,356. There is an improvement in the relative weekly business of the road of 941 cars. The ratio for the four weeks in April was about this figure, from 2,800 to considerably over .4,400 cars, so that it can be seen that there has been almost a twenty per cent. increase in the business of the road. The business done in the baggage rooms of the local station during the past week, incoming and outgoing, with transfers, amounted to 1,500 pieces. Raisirg Sheep in Meriden. Tyhe raising of sheep in Connecticut not be a lost art but it is certainly one which has not been cultivated to any great extent in recent years. Comparatively few people are aware that Walter I. Yale of this city has one of the largest flocks in the state For the past two years Mr. Yale has devoted himself éntirely to this indus- try and now has abeui 2300 head of &’ropooifion ‘on their stock on the beautifully situated Levi Yale farm on Yale avenue. LENGTHENING LIFE. In Connecticut_the Expectancy Has Greatly Increased. Dr. Joseph H. Townsend, of New Ha- ven, who is secretary of the state board of health, says that one of the most notable achievements of modern times has been the reduction of the death rate through sanitary science and the prevention of disease. In a recent lecture the physician eaid: “It is stat- ed that the death rate during the sev- enteenth and eighteenth centuries rang getnween 50 to 80 per 1;000 of popula- on. “To-day in such cities as New York, London and Berlin the average is 17 to 19 per 1,000; in Connecticut it 1s be- tween 15 and 16 per 1,000. This decrease is due chiefly to the protection from infectious diseases now given, and par- ticularly to children in the early years of their lives. While this reduction in the death rate has been going on, there lhus been a coincident lengthening of the average duration of life. “In the state of Connecticut in 1860 the expectation of life was only 30 years while in 1908 it has increased to 44 years, In New York city it has in- creased from ars in 1866 to 42 years in 1903. W this remarkable resultin the lengthening of human life, the work of lifesaving among infants has fallen far behind other bramches of sanitary work. If one compares the statistics of various preventable causes of death it is clear that nowhere, not even in the se of tuberculosis, is there such a needless waste of life of such numerical importance as that due to the deaths of children under one year of age. Fully one-half the waste is certainly preventable, and one of the most encouraging signs of the present interest in public health is the grow- in recognition of the importance of the campaign against infant mortal- ity.” Meriden.—Fire Marshal Lucas has isswed 104 building permits since the first of this v . This is an unsually Ilarge number for so short a period. -BOB VEAL. g Sold in Ansonia—Serious Offense The Ansonia Sentenil says: Information has reached the city health officer that “bobd” veal is being disposed of in Aneonia. An investiga- tion is to be made by Dr, P. O, Gold- stein and if the stories are true, the men who have been offendiug in this respect will be jrosecuted. Bob veal ix liable to appear at any time, but at this particular season of the year the temptation to sell the flesh of calves which are less than a month old, is too much for some people to resist. The health authorities agree that the eating of bob veal is detrimental to the health and in order to protect people against this sort of stuff, laws have heen pass- ed flna.kln‘ it a misdemeanor to seil bokh veal. The penalty is $100 fine or six montha in jail, or both. The seRing of the flesh of any animal or fowl which died or was killed when diseased is alsw prohibited. “The possession of bob veal or the flesh of any diseased animai or fowl is considered prima facie evi- dence of an intent to sell and is a violation of the law.
