A record breaking caucus was that held py the democrats in the town hall onMonday evening, the crowd re- sembling one of the sessions last year when the water question was under discussion. Every seat in the hall was taken long before 8 o'clock, and when the caucus was called to order prompt- ly at 8 o'clock by Town Chairman E, C. Lillibridge there were as many more standing as odeupied seats. The caucus was an orderly one and there was but one contest that amount- ed to anything, that being_betwesn C. J. Downes and Martin Keough for Tegistrar of voters. ' It was a close contest, but was won by the former. When - Town Chairman Lillibridge called for nominations for moderator Henry Gebrath nominated Joseph T. Fanning, who was unanimously chosen and took the platform amidst ap- plause. He said that the large gath- ering indicated an enthusiastic interest on your part in the business affairs of the town and your desire to have nom- inated for public office the very best men that can be selected to be voted for at the October election.

All this had to be discharged by the democratic ad- ministration. It is now cleared away and every bill against the town has been paid. The present administration will ask from this town the laying of the small- est tax rate called for in 10 vears. 1 wish to leave it to you and the people of this town as to what should be the political complexion of those who should administer the town affairs. If there is to be any contest for office you -should approach that duty in a conscientious way and do it straight. He warnad that there is a law of the state against anyone voting twice or attempting to thwart the will of the public in caucus. The contest should be waged in all fairness. He |thanked the caucus for the honor of Dbeing made presiding dfficer and urgad them not to let their enthusi- asm drop until after election, and you will be doing what is being done all over the country—Kkeeping the demo- cratic party in power for two more years. (Appladse.) For clerks, M. J. Coscoran named Thomas J. Kelly and J. J. Shugrue nominated S. Spalding, and both were selected. Lillibridge and Wilcox. Nominations for selectmen being call- ed for, J. J. Corkery took the floor and said that it had been well stated that in_politics one good term deserves an- other, and this can be well said of the present democratic members of the board of selectmen. Two years ago vou_elected A. W. Lillibridge and W. B. Wilcox and the financial manage- ment of the town was then handed over to the democratic party. Mr. Corkery stated that he had some work_in the selectmen’s office during the first part of the first vear. In October, 1909, the finances of the town of Norwich were in bad condition. The reports of -the selectmen showed it in very bad_condition, but did not show it all. There were $30,000 of out- standing notes, borrowed without au- thority, appropriations had been ex ceeded and outstanding bills of $10,000 were contracted without the semblance of authority. Under those conditions the democrats took charge under a 10 mill tax. If there had not been a change of administration the 10 mill tax would not have been sufficient. The second year a 9 1-4 mill tax was voted. There has been paid $30.000 of outstanding notes and $10,000 of out- standing bills, and every dollar of the bills of the administration have been paid. They will come before vou and recommend a lower tax rate than ever before. (Applause.) ‘When things get bad they turn to the democrats for relief, and they get it. Tt would be a shame to take away the office from the men who have been a success thera for the past two yvears. They have done the business weil and deserve the vote of every democrat and every Independent voter in the town. He nominated Albert W.

One of the Largest on Record—Lilli- “'bridge and Wilcox For Selectmen—Keough Put Up bridge and W. B. Wilcox for selectmen amidst loud applause. They were unanimously chosen. Assessors and Board of Relief. For first assessor, Charles E. Briggs placed in nomination Col. John P. Murphy for four years and he was chosen by acclamation, as was Jere- miah J. Donovan for a iike period. He was named by Adolphus Benoit of the Fifth district. As_a member of the board for two years to fill a vacancy Representative John F. Craney nominated M. J. Cur- ran and he was selected. For members of the board of rellef M. J. Coscoran nominated Frank Me- Laughlin of the Third district, who was chosen by acclamation, as was Edward Kirby, who was nominated by James Murphy. Town Clerk, Treasurer and Collector, Dr. P. H, Harriman said that judging from past history he believed that the taxpayers arc loath to change officials merely for party affiliations. In the past 25 years only three town clerks have held office and this has been an act of wisdom as the office demands ability, conscientious discharge of du- ty, freedom of taint of offensive par- tisanship and a courteous and patient official. Al these qualifications, he said, the present encumbent has and he named Charles S. Holbrook, who was unanimously chosen amidst ap- plause. He was also chosen for town treasurer, being nominated by Dr. Har- riman.: For collector Thomas A. Robinson was nominated, getting much ap- plause as his name was mentioned by Dr. Harriman, who claimed that it had been his’ pleasure for years to nominate him, . Other Nomines For"constables, John Fenton nomi- nated Dennis A. Donovan; John Shu- grue named Austin Furlong; and James Murphy nominated Marvin Sterry, and all _were unanimously chosen. For fourth place E. H. Pincus nominated Gustaye Thumm while the name of Frank Bushnell was also put forward. There was but little inter- est in-this contest and only 23 went in front of the desk to vote. There were 20 for Mr. Thumm, who was chosen, and three for Mr. Bushnell For agents of the town deposit fund Austin. A. Chapman, William H. Shields and Louis P. Roath were chos- en. For town school visitors W. W. Lang named Dr. E, J. Brophy and Henry Gebrath named Frank M. Green, both for three vears, and they were chos- en. The two fo begin office in 1912 for three years as named were Charles E. Briggs and John A. Brady, they havinig_been named by John J. Cork- ery and John Shugrue, respectively. Registrar of Voters For the office of registrar of voters, Edward T. Burke said- that it was not the least important one to come before the next election. The man in either party must be able to do cler cal work, be patient, be familiar with the election laws and ready and will- ing to impart information at all times. The presidential election comes next year and the registrar will have much to do in his line of duty, and much experience will be required. If a man has served you faithfully and well, is gentlemanly and courteous, painstak- ing and satisfactory, why make a change tonight? Some who are not democrats haye been named by you tonight because the people have de- manded it. Mr. Downes received high praise from the census bureau for his work taking the census; and he placed his name in nomination amidst great applause. John F. Coughlin urged the large gathering to do its duty and referred to the oft repeated phrase of the slate going through, It is for you to say hether the slate goes -through to- night or not, and you'll decide, for the nomination means the election, All that was said about the previons man can be said about my candidate. He is a young democrat, an earnest work- er for the party, capable, courteous, and with the time and ability. He is a resident and voter in the First dis- trict. He has desired to enter the field in all fairness and regardless of the result he will have no promise ex- cept the one I make to you that he will perform his duties to the best of his ability and aceording to law. He named Martin Keough, which caused another loud burst of applause. For twenty minutes the voters tug- ged and pulled to get in front of the clerks to cast their votes. There were 710 by the final count, who made the rounds, making it necessary for the winner to get 356, It was found that Mr. Downes had 396 and Mr. Keough 314 and Mr. Downes was declared the nominee, which caused much more applause. Mr. Keough thanked his supporters who had stood by him so loyally .and urged them to support the successful nominee, as he would do, and moved that the nomination be made unani- mous, which was done. Auditor and Tree Warden. For auditor Henry Gebrath named Coughlin and for tree wa John F. den Mayor Charles F. Thayer nomi- nated Albert W. Lillibridge and they were chosen: When the matter of naming a town committee came up, on motion of Councilman John Barry the same town committee was re-elected. After the town committee had been given pow- er to fill any vacancies the caucus ad- journed at 9.10 o'clock. SOCIALISTS’ TICKET. Named for Town Election With Three ‘Women Nominated.

AT POLI'S THEATER. Alias Jimmy Valentine. Alias Jimmy Valentine, which has been a sensational success in the big metropolitan theatrical centers and one of the strongest road attractions of re- cent years, was the second offering of the Poll Stock company at Monday night's performance, and held the audi- ence in rapt attention throughout. Dealing with a modern problem, and embracing striking contrasts in char- acter, it affords fine entertainment. The ' company gave a remarkably smooth performance and the full strength’ of the feminine contingent was exploited in.attractive gowns. Mr. Bostwick won new admirers in the rol2 of the criminal who could open safes by the sense of touch and whose redemption was accomplished through his love for a woman in the higher | walks of life, and Miss Pinckney, who was a striking brunette last week. was blonde and charming in the role of Rose Lane. Miss Emma Haynes, who has many loyal friends in Norwich, re- ceived an ovation on her first annear- | ance, and, though she h'as no great tax on her ability in the part of one of the “Gate of Hope,” sha exhibits her rip- ened talents to good effect. John Robb did an excellent bit of acting as Dick the Rat and was according a rousing hand on his exit. Adolph Lestina, Richard Calvert and Harlan Fox did fine work as convicts, and Carroll Daly was splendid as Detective Doyle. One of the hits of the evening was made by little Eileen Greiner, the child actress, and Miss Flora Dorset made a good impression on her first appearance in the part of a boy. Other roles were well taken by Miss Caroline Locke, George Roach, Nick Stark and . Tucker. The moving pictures and the illustrated songs add variety to a fina performanca. Suit for Divorce. Mabel Josephine Lewis of Norwich secks a divorce from Oscar Harrison Lewis of parts unknown. They wers married February 23, 1907, and on May 30, 1807, he deserted her. Her maiden name Mabelle Josephine Ander- son, and besides a divorce she wants to resume her maiden name. Fair Ex;:hange A New Back for An Old One—How It Is Done In Norwich. The back aches at times with a duil, indescribable fecling, making you weary and restless: piercing pains shoot across the region of the kidneys, and again the loins are so lame to stoop is agony. No use to rub or ap- ply a'plaster to the back in this condi- tion. You cannot reach the causa. Exchange the bad back for a new and stronger one. Follow the example of this Norwich citizen: Mrs. Henry Dearing, 489 East Main street, Norwich, Conn, says: I suf- fered terribly from pains in my back caused by disordered kidneys. I was unable to turn over in bed and sound sleep was out of the question. If I stooped, sharp twinges darted through my body and I could hardly straighten. My 'feet became swollen and other parts of my body bloated. I was tredted by doctors, but was not helped. When 1 learned of Doan’s Kidney Pills I began their use. They made me feel like a different person and for that reason I hold a high opinion of them.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.
