There was quite a number who went in in the morning, but the number was so small that it was de- cided after starting for the afternoon that the mul would be closed indefi- nitely and the help was thus informed of the action. When the bell rang at closing time the machinery stopped and there Is no telling when it will be started again. This was the state- ment of one of the officials of the mill. There was no trouble whatso- ever on Monday, but it would not be satisfactory to run the mill with those who did return.

It was stated that it was their opinion that the contractors would not be willing to give the men the half holiday, and would not agree to an advance in wages, but a meeting i3 to be held this week to take action on the demand made by teh employes National Vice President Thornton Ex- pected. _ Members of the union stated Mon- day that they expected their national Vice presidenf, George Thornton of Boston, to come here at once to ad- yise on the local situation.

Jones’ The Liars Given at Slater Hail Under Principals' Club Aus- pices. Another delighted audience was present at Slater ball on Monday evening to hear the sacond reading by Prof. Crosby of Brown university given under the auspices of the Principals’ ciub for the benefit of the Reading cir- cle. The drama presented last evening was Henry Albert Jones' play, The Liars, a very modern and very well written comedy in four acts. This might be classed as a modern edition of the famous School for Scandal of the sixteenth century and in its deli- cate treatment of morals and manners creates many amusing situations and phrases. Prof. Crosby enters into the full humor and spirit of the situation and_his impersonation of the various characters is given with an insight and comprehension that is vivid and illu- minating. The audience was axpecting much after the reading from the Mer- <hant of Venice last month and they were not disappointed. The greater variety and life possible in this other play was enjoyed to the utmost. Prof. Crosby is an artist in his lne of work and has made many friends among his hearers by the two_entertaining and instructive readings he has given. The Principals’ club are also living up to the traditions of the profession and giving only the best things to be ob- tained in an educative line and doing it for a most worthy object.

ARCANUM CLUB NIGHT. Pool Expert Entertained With His Long List of Fancy and Trick Shots. Joe Hood, the Napoleon of faney pool shots, was fhe enfertainer at the Ar- canum club on Monday evening at their club night, giving a marvelous exhibition of trick and faney shots with which the members and friends were highly entertained and pleased. Their approbation of Mr. Hood's dis play of skill was evident in the hearty applause that greeted his successful demonstration of what he can do with :eding each shot he explained just what was 1o be expected, and he rarely failed to make his shot on the first trial, although some of the more difficalt ones took several tries before he accomplished the shot. Some of the more spectacular shots included pock- eting the object ball from inside the triangle without disturbing the tri- angle, a fifteen ball combination for the corner pocket, and circiing a hat in the middle of the table to hit the object ball on a second stroke draw after the cue ball was returning fiom the upper bank. -One marvelous blind- fold shot pocketed six balls which had been placed in a group at the center of the table. Some of his prettiest work was in rapid fire shots, his best one shooting the whole fifteen balls off the side bank, leanding them all to- gether in a semi-circle in front of a corner pocket, after they had taken three banks. When the exhibition of trick shots was over, Mr. Hood played Louis R. Porteous of the club a 50 point game, running out when Porteous had 15 to £0. Hood's best frame was o -clean- up of the fable, while Porteous made his best with a 10 frame. There was a good sized attendance. Cigars were passed during the evening. The entertainment committee, W. T Stearns chairman, had the affair in charge. AT POLI'S, Arizona. For the last week of stock at Poli's theater for this season the four act western drama. Arizona, is the bill which is most capably presented by the company of players, who lea next week to play at Waterbury for the summer. There have been many changes, but the personnel at the pres- ent “time is excellent, two new faces being here this week. They carry the chafacter roles and are decidedly good in every instance. William Powell is cast as the ranch ewner in Arizona, a jolly good fellow who looks on ihe Dright, but the right side of life, while Louige Ripley as his wife, who likes 1o rule, gives a pleasing interprotation of the role of Mrs. Canby. George D. MacQuarric has the rart of Lieut. Denton, aginst whom fate seems to be directed, but by the help of sincere and trusting friends he is cleared of charges and gets the love Bonita Canby. despite a difference parental opinfon -4n that regard. Rlanche Douglass is the clever young lover, while Marguerite Starr as her sister and the mistrusted wife of Col Bonham, wins sympathy in her clever presentation of that role. John H Booth as Captain Hodgman plays the villgin to perfection. while Howard as Tony Mostano wins much favor by his active love match with Lena as played by Eleanor Parker. Thomas Hayden brings many a laugh in_his part as the Chinese servant. The four acts are finely staged by G. Socola, the courtyard being a partic- ularly pretty scene. OBITUARY. Charles W.

Cross, announced the hymn, My Faith Looks Up to Thee, for the open- ing of the =devotional service at 3 o'clock. She read Psalm 50, and Mrs. H._Addie Rondall of Groton, county president,” offered praye! Interesting reports were made by the secretary, Mng. H. F. Palmer, and by the treasurer, " Mrs, S. Howard Mead. Mra. J. J. Flel perintondent of the L. T. L. and tHe Y.'s, reported on these two branches, telling of the visit made Dby the Y.'s to the county home off Eas- ter Sunday and to the almshouse on the following Sunday. Dr. Lucilie James, superintendent of the purity department, reported much encouragement from the last meeting, which was the third in the series of talks, and practically all the audience were new attendants at these meet- ings, showing the influence of the in- vitations given in the Sunday schools. She had distributed much literature and received subscriptions for the Purity Advocate. On the suggestion of the president it was voted that the union correspond with a Miss Whitman to arrange to have her come here and give an enter- tainment of recitations. Miss Cross also spoke of the playground work, which ‘was something the union had advocat- ed a number of years ago, and is now being taken up by the board of trade. She suggested that if a playground were secured, the union show its inter- esi in the matter by asking that they might have one day in the week, when they should take care of the entertain- ment provided. This suggéstion was endorsed by the meeting. The county' president, Mrs. Randall, then spoke at_length on the work of the W. C. T. U., mentioning that therc were some forty different departments, s0 that anyone disposed to worl could find some plage where she could fit in. She said that magazines might be sent for the soldiers at the forts off New London by sending them by freight to the government boat at New London, addressed to the commander of the fort. She recommended the wearing of the white ribbon at all times, as it always inspired respeot for the woman who was true to the cause. She spoke of the importance the silver medal contests could be to the children, arousing temperance instincts from which often the best workers develop- ed. Of the L. T. L. work she said that was the training of the ild that ould tell, as rescue work was good, but it was much more effective to train the child and keep it pure. She also said a word about the import- ance of parlor meetings in interesting people who might otherwise never be. come acquainted with the W. C. T. U work. On this last point Mrs. T. A. Perkins voiced her accord, instancing some of the results in this line from the last parlor meeting held in Taftville. As the meeting closed the president | gave to each member a membership card asking that she bring it in at the June meeting fillled out with a new name for membership. DEMURRER SUSTAINED BY JUDGE GARD!NER GREENE. Favors the Town of Norwich in Suit Against R. B. Morgan & Co. Judge Greene has handed down a decision on the second defense in the answer in the case of town of Nor wich vs. Ricaido R. Morgan et al, in an aetion on a bond. The second de- fense is that at the time of the hiring the plaintiff represented and agreed that the crusher was in good repair, whereas it was not; and that its de- fective condition caused the defend- ants loss of time and expenditureof money. The demurrer of the town says that it does not appear that there was any agreement that the plaintiff should pay for repairs or loss of time/caused b defects. There is also lack in the:sec- ond defense of definite allegations to the effect that the defendants were in- duced to hire by plaintiff's representa- tions therein alleged and that the de- fendants had any authority from plain- tiff to repair at plaintiff’s expense. The demurrer is sustained, on all its grounds. NORWICH TOWN Delegates Appointed to Jewett City Confsrence—S3udden Death of Addi- son C. Jackson—Counting of Mail Matter.
