FmEB Y TR Az NORWICH BULLETIN, SATURDA APRIL 13, 1912 NEW LONDON BANK BURGLAR ALARM Worked Successful When Tested But the Police Fail- ed to Respond to Signal THE STATE POLICE RAID WAS FRUSTRATED Local Force Able to Cope With the Violators of the Law— New Haven Road to Help in Beautification of the City Billboard Takes Place of Dilapidated Building Which Council Ordered Razed. New Lol dev police officer and Had there been an e banks in 1 with electrical the bank ctual hold-up wit! offictal. their faithful assistants, and those who planned for the raids. There were men enough to effectually surround every house that had bad reputation in the city and the state police did not intend that any guilty person should escape. The next night the members of the local police reported for duty as usual and started out on their regular tour. A few hours later a half dozen of the | officers were called to the station one at a time and retired to the patrol room for orders. When all was in veadiness Police Lieutenant Jeffers ordered them to raid the houses of il repute, assigning the men at his com- mand to the very best advantage. When the small band of policemen re_ turned they brought in the proprietors of nine of the places and twenty of the inmates, but no visitors, as only one man was found by the raiding parties and he was taking a snooze in an easy chair when the officers entered. In the police court all those taken in were fined, the keepers promised to discon- tinue the illegal practice and the fre- quenters were given thirty-six hours to get out of the city to stay out, until at least thoroughly reformed. They were warned that if they defled the orders of the court and were brought in again they would all receive prison 1 | sentenc This demonstrates that the local po- h hat are f purpose of | successful result, the fault would not | lice can do all that is required of them burglaries and ning | have been with the signal system. without, the aid of the state police ups such as Aisias |and it 'is understood that hereafter broad day- | Speaking of the local police that ' they will be expected to do their full the fe with the gun | was not a very bad one they put over | duty, or authorities even higher will makes exclamation “money | the state police recently, when the lat- | know the reason why.

Since Ive been telling the women how to wash clothes with Fels-Naptha in cool or lukewarm water, without boiling, all kinds of washboilers have gone out of style. Good day.” ' Fels-Naptha will take grease out of clothes in cool or lukewarm water. It loosens all kinds of grease quick asa wink, and takes out every trace of the spot. ['hat’s why butchers’, and painters’, and machinists’ clothing can be washed better with Fels-Naptha than any otherway. It's easier, too; in summer or winter, requires no boiling, hot water nor hard rubbing, and makes a better job of it. Because Fels-Naptha dissolves grease almost instantly, women who have tried it prefer Fels-Naptha to any other soap for washing dishes. I'here is no necessity for putting the hands in hot water. Puts a fine polish on glass and china. Tt is likewise superior in cleaning coats, or rugs, or curtains, or anything else .that has become spotted or soiled. In fact, you will find that anything cleanable can be cleaned quicker and better and easier with Fels-Naptha. And for laundry purposes, Fels-Naptha is a revelation to women who have always washed in the old-fashioned, washboiler- and-hard-rubbing way.
