The great ecouneil fire of the Im- proved Urder of Red Men of Connecti- cut was kindled in Putnam Phalanx hall Hartford Wednesday. There were 400 brayves repregenting the ferty tribes of the Connecticut reservation in attendanee. A pleasing feature of the gession of the couneil was the presentation to Great Bachem Bdward T. Bucking- ham of a solld gold watch and a double chain carrylng a white flint arrew head, mounted, the gitt coming from the great couneil and past sachems of the reeervation. In his address Great Sachem Buck- ingham said: During cold mooa I sent a speak leaf to the various tribes asking for their cooperation in making an increase in the membership of the order that would bring it over the 6,000 mark. The response was beyond my expeotation and I consider it a splendid testimonial to the loyalty of the mem- bers that the membership has increas- ed from 5790, December 31, 1911, to 6.420, May 1, 1912. The report of the chief of records will also show that there has been a very large increase in the wampum belts of the tribes. The Great Council of Connecticut, 1. O. R. M., t3s organized in Novermber, 1866, with™ne tribes and a member- ship of about 1,600; today there are forty tribes with a membership of more than 6,200 and each tribe Is in‘a flour- ishing condition. During the past year which has been one of the most pros- perous in the history of the order in Connecticut, the increase in mem- bership has been gratifying. Durl the year upwards of $15,000 was dis- bursed in relieving the afflicted, bury- ing the dead and looking after the living dependents of deceased warriors. The tribes constigution state have in their wampum beits approximately $75,000, a gain of $15,000 for the year ending January 1. The total membership of the order in the United States is 55,000. The amount of the benefits disbursed last vear in the United States was $1,477,- 322. The amount disbursed since 1847 for benefits ig approximately $14,500,- 000. UNITED AMERICAN MEéHANICS. America council, No. 84, of Montville, held a session Thursday night at which ex-Councillors Harry Auwood and ‘Willlam Watt, the latter as alternate for Delegate Orville B. Walden, pre- sented to the council the banner from the state council. The state council on Wednesday awarded in gain in membership banner to America coun- cil as it had made the greatest gain of any council ig the state. The in- crease was 38 pér cent of the mem- bership during 1911, twenty-two being admitted by initiation and two by transfer. The council voted to celebrate its nineteenth anniversary on June 13.

The irritant action by which it does this sometimes leads to still more harmful results. Its second ac- tion is narcetic; it lessens the connec- tion between nerve centres and the outside world. These two actions ac- count for all the good and all the bad effects of tobacco. As a narcotic, it temporarily abolishes anxiety and dis- comfort by making the smoker care less about what is happening to him. But it is a_well-known law of medi; cine that all the drugs which in the beginning lessen nerve action increase it in the end. Thus smoking finally causes apprehension, hyper-excitabili- ty and muscujar unrest. Here this inevitale law seems to give contra- dictory results. Every physician knows that an ‘enormous amount .of insomnia is relieved by smoking, even if it is at the expense of laziness the next day; at the same time every physician knows that most excessive smokers are troubled with insomnia. .

While this {nfermatien may have been in the pessession of the party dictaters it was net imparfed to tae delegates from the several wards to the city convention, nor even to all of the chairmen who represented the sev- eral wards on the nominating com- mittee.

The Road Salesman’s Auto. There arc nowadays men combiaing the work of advertising and selling goods who in going about in the city and in covering a territory within a radius of a hundred miles of town use an automobile, having a machine built and equipped for the work. An outfit of this character lately en- countered on a North river ferryboat consists of a trim looking machine with plenty of power and with a fold- ing carriage top and other accessories to make traveling comfortable in any sort of weather, while built up at the back in place of a tonneau is a boxed- in, weather-proof body of the capacity of about two good sized trunks and having doors opening at the rear end. In this boved-in body may be carried a supply of samples of the one line of goods that this salesman advertises and sells and also display cards and materials for window displays. ©n all his trips the salesman takes witn him a chaaffeur to drive and look after the machine while he attends to business. With such an vutfit he never has to wait for trains, as he would have to do if he were traveling by rail e can roll into a town and pht out samples and display material and take orders for goods and move right along whenever he's ready and im any di- rection. In this manner he ¥an get to a lot of places In the city in the course of a day and he can cover haif a dozen or a’ dosen tewns in Jersey and get back to the city the same day, or with goods for replenishing his stock shipped to him by rail te e convenient Inter- mediate point can, for instance, caver Long from end to end in fouy days, a trip that made by rail would take ten.—New York Sun.

Two thousand flyve hundred troops of all arms, including regulars, scouts and constabulary, lined the streets through which the governor | general passed on his way to the pier, | ferming a living avenue from Ayala | bridge to pier b, over Caile Concep- | clon, Bagunbayan, the Malecon and Sixteenth street. It was a cosmopolitan crowd. There were many from all walks of | life and there were men and women | of many nationalities. Only In Manila would one see such a crowd on such | an occasion. Local society had turned out en masse, and mingling with them Chinese, Filipinos and Japanese rub- bed shoulders. The launch met the tramsport in the stream and while the band of transport and the Con- stabulary Band played the governor general boarded the hoat which is to take him to Nagasaki, the first leg of | his journey through Europe and the United States. | éhildr en Or;r FOR FLETCHER'S 1 CASTORIA Explained by Anty Drudge.
