Plaintiff and defend- ant were married Nov. 23, 1398. It is charged in the complaint that the hus- band had committed adultery in Hart- ford and other places between May 1, 1911, and March 1, 1912, with a party unknown, and that he deserted his w! on Jupe 13, 1909. The suit is return- able before the superior court on the first Tuesday of September. The plain- tiff asks the custody of two minor children, girls aged 11 and_6. Clerk Parsons has received from Judge Joel H.

Mortgage loans amounted to $15,342, while a year ago the total was $27,481, Sales of real estate in ihe towns re- ported in the Commercial Record for the week are well fn advance of the record made in the like week of a year ago, the total for the week being 401, which compares with 315 last year. The mortgage loans for the week amounted to $2. 187 which com- pares with $746,4%0 for the previous Year. The record of petitions in bankruptey filed in this state during the week compares unfavorably with the same week of late years. . The four bank- rupts have average assets of $1195, es of $3,488.

SCHOOL'S 'DAILY PROGRAMME. Reading the Most Important Subject in School Work, Says Secretary Hine. In the course in school management conducted by Secretary C. D. Hine at the Dambury summer school the sub- ject for Wednesday morning was the dai'y programme as used in the school. Mr. Hine sald that the pro- gramme should reflect the combined Judgment of the teacher and super- visor. In.planning a programme one must keep the object and value -of each subject in mind, “Reading,” sald Mr. Hine, “is the most Important of school work, Reading opens up the e world to the child, Children should d informailonal stories and should cultivate a taste for good liter- ature.” Other subjects mentioned by Mr. Hine are spelling and penman- ship. Miss Katherine T. Harty of Danbury talked to the teachers on the subject of methods. She had time only to mention briefly the main consideration in each subje Geography, reading, language and spelling are the branch- es_considered. During this period some of the pu- pils from the New street school pre- sented three interesting dramas—the first entitled Christopher Columbus at the Court of Spain, the second Paul Revere and the Battle of Lexington, and the third was ecalled Patrick Henry. These dramas as presented by the pupils proved v interesting, and the teachers who enjoyed them were impressed with their value as school exercises. The children appar- ently enjoyed acting their parts, and it was also evident that they were im- pressed with the historical facts pre- ! sented. As language and histori exercises these dramas furnish valva- ble adjuncis to the equipment of the school. The dramas have been ecare- fully prepared by Miss Gertrude Hand of Danbury, one of the teachers in the model gchool. The course in penmanship, which is in charge of Harry Houston of New Haven, has proved so pepular that it is impaessible for all wishing to take the work to get into one reom. For this reason Mr. Houston has decided to give two lectures dally and to con- duct the class exercises as usual, Connectiout Patents.

Chapman. The case w»s continued until July 16, when Garuner pleaded not guilty, and probable cause was found for binding him over to the su- perior court. In default of $500 bonds he was committed to jail in this city. Commitment papers have also been filed in the case of Alfred Hurst on the charge of breaking into the saloon of Joseph A. Brown at Plainfield at about 3 a. m. on July 19 and stealing a pint bottle of whiskey, Hurst plead- ed guilty to statutory burglary and in default of $1,000 bonds was committed to jail here. In a per curiam opinion from the suprethe court of errors in the suit of Frank A. Case and others vs. the Connecticut company it is stated thai the evidence so clearly failed to show that the injury complained of was caused by the defendant’s negligence and that the plaintiff's own negligence was not a proximate cause of it tha. there was no error in setting the ver- dict aside. This was an action to recover dam- ages for injury alleged to have been caused to an automobile through the defendant’s negligence. It was tried before Judge Joel E. Reed and a jury here. A verdict for the plaintiff was set aside by the court, from which the plaintiffs appealed. The supreme court found ne error. MeCRUM PRESIDENT FILES IN BANKRUPTCY.

BLOCK ISLAND CROWDED. Hotels Overflowing and Cottages Full —Fine Fishing and Delightful Weather. Not in several years has Block Isl- and had as many people at the last of July as are there this year. Sevemal of the cottages about the island that have not heen opened during July will be | opened during the coming week, and |{with but few exceptions all of the {available cottages will he occupied for lthe remainder of the season. The weather at the island for the pas week has been ve cool, with a north- west breeze blowing nearly all of the time. The beaches and walks ¢ thronged with people all day who ar: eager to reap the benefit of the clea sea breezes which always sweep the Isle of Manisses. Nearly all of the larger hotels have been d to ever- flowing for seversl days, and by the last of the week all rooms at the hotels that have not been engaged ahead will be taken. Fishing continues good, every da swordfish being landed at the old har- bor. Last week Captain Stinson of the sloop Lewls C. Totman came in with 2 large slzed swordfish, and other equally as good catehes have been made. The old familiar bluefish, which have been so much sought by the fishermen for the past few weeks, made their first appearance last week. Weakfish and flounders have also been very plentiful. Every day from 900 to 2,000 pounds of flounders have been caught by a single beat in the auto trawls. Tennis this vear {s one of the prin- eipal sports. and all of the courts at the various hotels are in constant use. Baseball games by teams from the dif- ferent hotels have been largely at- tended hy the summer colony, and several interesting games have been played on the Spring house grounds during the week. The war manoeuvres which have brought the Nerth Atlantic squadron into the neighboring waters has been an additional attraetion, and the sight of a2 dozen warships has become a common one in the past week or two.

The milk producers of the state, at least in the western part,-and there is no reason why the same tions do not obtain in eastern Co cut, al- though here they have engaged recently with another aspect of the milk question, are hard up against the problem of making a profit from the dairy business, as matters stand to- The Waterbury Milk Producefs’ as- sociation, for inst.nce, has just voted to raise the price of milk to retailers from 3 3-4 cents®a quart to 4 3-4 cents. The reason for the raise in price, they stated, was the increased cost of grain and labor. The increase will become effective Aug. 1. For Yu air i Skin, “Milady” There has never before been on the market, to our knowledge, v sub- stance that would bleach the skin un- less it contained injurious acids or cor- rosive sublimate. The enforcement o the Pure Food and Drugs Act has made marketing of these articles |ll¢!l.|A Therefore, we feel the readers of The Bulletin will welcome the news that The Lee & Osgood Co., our progressive druggists, bave secured the agancy for Norwlch of White's kynbleach, a eroxide cream, composed -mostly of rth Alkaline Peroxides, and which contains no ucld}: Dfll‘ injurfous sub- stances of any kind. ; It does its work by reason of thie fact that when rubbed on the skin, reviously moistened with warm water, he free and active oxygen which thereby becomes released, not _only bleaches the skin, but theroughly dis- intects as well. The person affiicted with discolored skin and wishing to Thi had been expected for some time, and consequently the retail deal- ers of Waterbury will jump their prices from 7 cents a quart to 8 cents a quart, while bottle milk will cost 9 cents a quart after the first of Au- gust instead of 8 cents. Three month contracts had been made by the re- tailers this year instead of the six month contracts and the farmers said they lost money last year by supplying mitk on contract from May until Octo- ber. because of the dry spell. The short cantracts will end July 31, so the raise in price can be made. A feature of the vote is that these prices are not temporary, but will be in force throughout the year, which may keep the price of milk 8 and 9 cents from August on. The retailers have no cholee but to put the price that high, as they cannot do business at cheaper rates, they say. When one of the largest retailers in the city was asked his opinion of the situation, he had the following to say: “The farmers have the situation in their own hands and we can do noth- ing but comply with thelr rulings. There was a time when we used to go up in the country and tell them how much we would pay for milk; now we go up te find out how much we can get it for. We either have to raise the price following their action or else go out of business. I don't expect that any retailers will be able to sell milk ss than 8 cents a quart regular or for bottled milk.” ett told of the rather gloomy prospects for the farmers unless they did something to increase the price of ilk so that they could make a living. Another prominent dealer gtated that there were 16,000 less cows in Connec- ticut at the present time than there was ten years ago, and that more of the farmers would be forced out of the dairy business unless they living price for their milk could get a TAFTVILLE General Doings of Interest About the Village—Personals.
