Nobody Anxious to Make Trouble For Advertising Men— May Come to Norwich—Herbert Edmonds Leaves Hos- pital—Survivors Who Will Attend First Cavalry Re- union—Grange Field Day—Norwich Physicians Guests of Local Medical Society. — Messrg, Shannon and Sheridan, who have been canvassing for advertising in the Cathplic Church Directory, a scheme which they claim to be their own, were invited to the police station by . Police Sergeant West, upon com- plaint of Frank Sherman, who had given up $10, upon representation that the two men were at work upon the recemmendation of Rev. Peter McOs- car ‘of the Church of the Immaculate Comeeption and Rev. Dr. John Neale of 'St. Michael's church, and for the benefit of these churches. Besides Mr. Shefman, the men had collected $5 from Albert B, Smith, and $3 from Charles W, Willard, and were to re- ceivé a check for $12.50 from the C. B. Cottrell & Sons Co. Messrs. Sherman, Smith, Willard, and .a representative of the Cottrell company were sent for, and Messrs. Shannon and Sheridan questioned in thelr presence by Chief of Police Brown. Shannon and Sheridan said they were conducting a legitimate bus- tness and that their accusers were mistaken in their statements, although admission was made that the names of the priests imight have been men- tioned, but that there was no intent to misrepresent or defraud. They told conflicting stories in re- to their business, and Chief ywn was about to place the two men upder arrest and let the court pass upon the transactions, when an offer was made to return the money that bead been received if the customers de- stred to repudiate the contracts. The was agreeable to Messrs. Sherman ahd Smith and they were handed back the amounts they had paid. Mr. Wil- lard was satisfied to let the matter drop and for Sheridan and Shannon to keep his $3 towards paying their expenses provided the advertising seheme was a sham. The Cottrell com- pany had paid out no money and had oo desire to appear as & complainant in the case. In consequence the canvassers were mot piaced under arrest and left the police station, undertermined whether to go to New London or Norwich. Herbert Edwards, Jr, tiwgh was fractured and who was otherwise injured by the side frame of a press falling upon him while at work at the C. B, Cottrell & Sons plant has returned from the Rhode Island haspital, where he has been under treatment for nearly two months. With the aid of crutches, Mr, Edwards is able to move about, but it will be a lomg time before he can resume his eustomary work. Elmer Babcock and a local physician went to Providence and accompanied the young man to his home in Westerly. Mr. Edwards is in a very nervous condition and be- came so elated when he was leaving the institution that he fell on the hos- pital steps. Fortunately he struck on bts right side and without material effact. Had he fallen on his left side, whose left WEAR RUBBERS This Winter AWNINGS, Let me bave your order now. Any size and any color.

FBLAN | Rhode Island state grange, at the ode Island college, Kingston, Thurs- day. All departments of the college able industries of Westerly and the Stillman and Chapman dahlia farms in their aggregate acreage are prob- single dahlia farm in New England. Naturally there are many other grow- ers of that attractive flower, the great majority of the bulbs being obtained from Stillman or Chapmen, by those who do not grow dahlias as a busi- ness, Occasionally these amateur growers secure products that cause the experts to put a cinch on the laurels attained. Lyndon Taylor is one of the many amateurs and he has demonstrated that dahlias can be brought to bloom without soil of any kind. Mr. Taylor planted his bulbs at the usual time and in the usual way, and had several toes left over. These he put into a box and placed on a shelf in his cel- lar. Wednesday, in rearranging his cellar, he came upon the box of dahlia toes and was surprised to see that one of the toes had sprouted, matured and bore several dahlias in full bloom. The flowers were shown to Mr. Stillman and he declared that in all his dahlia experience he could not recall a sim- ilar instance. He had seen bulbs of many sizes and shapes, bearing Tre- semblance to fruits, vegetables and animals, but never before had he known a dahlia to bloom under like olrcumstances. Local Laconics. Mrs. Albert H. Longworthy enter- tained a party of ladies at her Week- apaug cottage Wednesday. The Rhode Island republican state and congressional conventions will be held in Providence Oct. 9.
