Norwich aerie No. 367 entertained Eagles. and friends in_numbers which filled both the Hagles hall and the ad- joining Hibernian hall, to thelr capa- city Monday evening at the annual smcker of ihe aerle; all enjoved the finest kind of a time. The feature of the programme to which all looked forward with the greatest interest was entertaining, though somewhat tame. In the preliminary between Young Bateson of Providence and Young Giynn of New London Referee Martin Keough stopped the bout in the sec- ond round as the former was unable to_continue, The main bout was of eight rounds between Danny Dowd and Young Pha- len, both of Waterbury. The men used big gloves and although both seemed clever, neither showed any inclina- tion fo mix it up until the last two rounds, which -were fairly lively. There was little to choose between the two in the showing they made, Mr. Burke of Waterbury did the announc- ing and Captain Danny Murphy of the Athletics held the watch, exhibit- ing his vocal accomplishments in_the absence of a gang. Buddy Faulkes and Young Shugrue were at the ring- side and were introduced. It was announced that Jack Monty had been matched to meet his old enemy, Young Hammond of New Ha- ven al New London on the 20th and Jack starts training today for the bout. Bateson stated that he would fight Young Glynn 12 rounds at Baltic later in_the month. é There were entertaining selections by Dougherty’s orchestra and pleas- ing solos were rendered by Willlam Delancy, Raymond O'Neil and Mr. McDonoush. “Red” Malcom receibed a big hand for his exhibition of danc- ing. Through the kindness of the man- agement of the Auditorium and the Davis the singers from both theatres were present and save an entertain- ing programme. Refreshments of sandwiches and soda were served. Dr. J. J. Donohue presided during the pro. gramme.

New York, Jan. 6.—Quotations moved | in an uncertain way on the stock ex- | change today and speculative senti- | ment was confused, becoming more bearish as the session advanced. The tone of the market was firm in the early part of the day, but the supreme court ruling against the Union Pacific cific ctock had a depressing effect. Union Pacific was the feature of the day’s dealings. In the fore part of the session it was the strongest of the favorite stocks,. rising two points, There was said to be some buyir- of | this stock on the expéctation that the supreme court would sanction the dis- tribution plan, and the veneral market moved up fractionally, Reading and Northern Pacific showing considerable strength. Some time before the su- preme court's ruling was announced, however, there was & bear drive at Union Pacific, which depressed it sharply, but after a brief interval of unsettiement the market grew steadle: Hardly had the effect of this drive worn off when word came of the court’s decision, and Union Pacific once more slumped quickly, falling more than four points below the high nrice of the day. Traders were uncertain as to the ultimate effects of the de- cision by the court and hesitated to take a definite stand, but as the day drew toward the close <tocks were sold more heavily, and the low prices of 1600 Com Products * Delaware & Tindson.. .

By o decisively defeating Sam’Mec- Vey in Australia Langford has established his_title to coneideration as a candidate for championship He is certainly. with Jack Johnson. But there is mot much’ prospect for a meeting between them, except in Australia, and, ac- cording "to reports.from there, that country Is closed to the big Texan. It is possible that Langford will re- turn to America and try to get on matches with some of the big “white hope” alvision now becoming prom- inent. It is rather surprising how public opinion Will change i & short ime. When Langford . left this country, only a short time ago, he was popular with the followers of boxing, and there would have been little difficulty in get- ting matches for him if men_good enough to fight him could be found. Since he went away a number of big white men have come to the fromt, but in that same time there has arisen a feeling in sporting circles that the color line shoulg be drawn in ring affairs, Boxing promoters no longer care to match white and k men in_their clubs. The New York Box- infl commission has set its face against such contests and will not permit in- ter-raciol bouts. One of the big clubs in Philadelphia started out with that announcement. Gradually all over the country the same eort of thing is com- ing into vogue. Jack Johnson is part- 1y responsible for this state of af- fairs,_ but not entirely, for the feeling has been growing for some years nst letting black men meet White men in glove contests. This has been the custom for years in the south, and it has spread gradually all over the land. One of the conditions of the deed of gift of the belt offered by Tom McCarey of Los Angeles for heavywelght competition is that only white men shall be allowed to con- test for it. Hence when Langford comes back to America he will find that his field of endeavor will be great- ly limited. He will be compelled to fight men of his own race, for it is ot likely that he will be able to ar- | ange matches with any big white men, as most of the latter have fallen in with the proposition of drawing the color line. BRITTON GETTING RICH. He's Said to Be Clearing Thousands Under Morgan. Jack Britton, the Chicago youth, made a wise move when he placed himself under the management of Dan Morgan, who mode K. O. Brown fa- mous, ‘In the four months that he has been with Morgan, Britton has taken part In fifteen contests and his earnings in that time, as figured out by Morgan, have been $11,300. Britton never got very far in the financial world until lately. He was as good a boxer four years ago as he is now but he seemingly was unlucky and it took Dumb Dan to get him the opening and the prestige. Jack hasn’t made as mugh during his whole career as he has accumuloted in the past four months. In twenty-two contests in 1912 K. O. Brown cleared $24,266. Farrell Leaves to Meet Chance. New York, Jan. 6.—Frank Farrell, president of ‘the New York American league team left here this afternoon for Chicago, where he will confer with Frank L. Chance, former manager of the Chicago Nationals, and endeavor to obtain Chance's signature to a.con. tract to manage his team next season. Mr. Farrell was in a povial mood when he departed and declared he felt confident his mission would result sat- istactorily. Cicotte a Holdout. Detroit, Jan. 6.—Pitcher Eddie Ci- cotte of the American Jeague baseball club said today that he had returned his 1913 contract to President Comis- key unsigned. He sald he was not quite satisfied with the salary, but ex- pected an adjustment. Tryouts at Princeton. . Princeton, N.

Frank Klause, the Pittsburgh mid- dleweight, who has been in France for some time, is expecied to arrive in America_in a few days for a short visit at his home here. He will then go back to France, where he is matched to box Billy Papke in March. Joe Rivers has settled down to hard training at Woodlawn Inn for his bout with Leach Cross at the Empire A, C. on January 14, and his workouts at- tract a large gathering to his training camp dally. The Mexican is a thor- ough worker in his training, and he keeps his sparting partners busy. Cross has also begun hard training, as | he regards the contest with Rivers one | of the rhost important in his career. One week after his match _with Freddie Hicks on January 8 Bddle McGoorty will figure in a bout with Jack McCarron and about three weeks fter this bout he is likely to take on Jimmy Clabby in the middle west. A bout between the winner of the Me- Goorty-Clabby contest and the Papke- Klause bout in Paris would clear up the middleweight tangle, as these are the sole survivors in this class whose LIVER TROUBLE Dull pains in the back, often under the shoulder blades, poor digestion, heartburn, flatulency, sour risings, pain or uneasiness after eating, I'll'..n liver trouble—and e yellow skin, & = ‘They correct all tendency to liver trouble, relleve the most stubborn cases, and give strength and tone to liver, sbomach and bowels. o 5 kS Fato % return he fails in this he would like to get a bout with Joe Rivers of their last bout . _Jess Willard, ' the Texas heavy- welght, who is Tecelving prominent mention as a contender for Luther McCarty’s new_title, is due for a ses- slon with the New York state athletic commission, according to advices from Buffalo. Willard was matched to box ten rounds with One Round Davis at the Queensbury A. C. of Buffalo New Year's. day. but he notified the club on December 30 that he would be un- able to fill the engagement owing to an injured hand. The club promoters are not satisfied with the excuse, and will make a formal complaint to the commission about Willard. As the boxer motifled the club in time for a substitute boxer to be obtained it is not likely that any punishment will be déalt out by the commission. In view of past rulings, however, it would not be surprising if he is ordered to box at that club before accepting any other engagement in this state.

During a period of 13 months end- ing Nov. 30, 1912, there were 48 strikes in Connecticuf, according to the bien- nial report of the Connecticut bureau of labor statistics just made public. The report says that classifying by occupations the persons involved it is found that the textile workers lead in number with 4,621, metal trades workers 979, bullding trades 725, la- borers 614, papermakers 260, cigar- makers 24, journeymen taflors and helpers 180, hat sizer~ 100, piano mak- ers 100, waiiters 8, printers 46, buffers 42, brewery workers 12, team drivers 8. The total number involved was 8,027, and 72,767 days’ work was lost pending settiement. Investigation as to the results of the strikes showed that 21 were successful, 20 unsuccess- ful, 5 partlally successful and 2 mnot settled when the report closed. Among those having the largest mumber of persons idie and the greatest number of days lost before a settlement was reported were the silk weavers of the Windham Silk company, Willimantic; the weavers at_the French River Tex— tile company, Mechanigsville, and the journeymen plumbers fn New Haven. Referring to trade agreement, the report says that “In Connecticut there is found ‘to exist more than 500 trade unions of the American Federation of Labor type, and several under the banner of the Industrial Workers of the World. On the other hand, is found powerful and well organized associations of manufacturers, formed for the protection of their Interests and working in opposition to the labor unions. This _condition _involves so many vast and - important Interests that if allowed to exist without intel- ligent and fair minded consideration being given to both sides, then the prospects for a continuance of indus- trial war seems inevitable. In Con- necticut among 204 trade unions in- vestigated at this time, 103 are found to have working agTeements in force between the members and their em- ployers and a study of the strike re- Ports reveals the fact that while 48 strikes occurred, 32 of them, or 67 per cent., began where no orzanization was found to exist. One of the principal features of the trade agreement is the settlement of all difficulties by arbitra- tion with no suspension of work pend- ing a settlement and notwithstanding the fact that the national association of manufacturers had adopted a reso- Iution declaring aszainst agreements made with organized labor, I believe them to be practical and recommend thelr adoption, feeling certain _that from among the many now on file in this bureau suitable ones can be found applicable to our various industries.” Tn the vear 1911, the report says, there were 515 labor organizations in the state. Little change in numbers occurred_in the vear following, there being 495 local and 22 district organ- izations, making a total of 517. BUFF LEGHORNS’ WEEK.

PLAINFIELD DEFEATED JEWETT CITY. First of Series of Whists Between Holy Name Societies of Jewett City, Moosup and Plainfield. The first of the series of whists that are being played in the tournament be- tween the Holy Name socicties of Jewett City Moosup and _Plainfield took place Monday evening in the basement of the Catholic church in Plainfield. The_ contesting societies were the Holy Name society of Plain- fleld and the Holy Name society of Jewett City. The whist resulted in a Victory for Plainfield by the score of 44 to 40. The next whist will be played between Mossup and Plainfield Friday evening. There are 24 players in the tournament, eight in each so- clety, and the winning team will be awarded a handsome cup. Radium in the Sea. Radioactive _ substances have been found by Professor Joly, the distin- guished physicidt of the University of Cambridge to be far more abundant in the deposits on the floor of the deep- er parts of the ocean than in any ter- restrial rocks or earths. This has been learned from an examination of sam- ples of the bottom mud brought home by recent deep-sea dredging expedi- tions, especially that lately conducted by John Murray in the Michael Sars. These radloact substances are malinly inherent in the red clay which constitutes the floor of the abysses, the .various other muds and oozes, which are more or less calcareous in their nature, forming at medium depths, because the carbonate of lime constituting the shells of molluscs and of many kinds of animalcules are wholly dissolved before they reach the greater depths. Hence oozes composed of limy materials can be laid down only in comparatively shallow water. This red clay, characteristic of the bot- tom wherever it is more than about two and one-half miles beneath the surface, Is a clay deposit derived principally from wind-carried volea- nic dust and pumice decomposed by long exposure to the chemical action of sea-water, it contains nodules of | manganese iron, certain crystals, round | particles of meteoric _origin, and | spicules from silicious animaleules (ra- | diolarians), and has imbedded in it a profusion of flinty sharks' teeth and the dense ear bones of whales, always coated with a mineral crust. Many of the sharks’ teeth are of extinct species known otherwise by fossil remains, which is one evidence of the extreme- 1y low rate of the deposition of this clay_where almost no material from the far-away land can be added to it. It seems impossible to get any data as to what the rate of deposit may be, but it must be incalculably slow; and to this fact is probably dus its exces- sive riehness in radium.—Harper's WeekKly.

This plan of moral sanitation, this society of the clean mouth, is needed mightily in this town. Outside of ‘Whitechapel, where profanity and ob- scenity have a redundant and over- powering lingo, due to generations of evil heredity an denvironment there can be few civilized regions—and aft- er all Whitechapel is merely savage— where profanity is as common and un- rebuked as in this town, and that in spite of all the honorable and fruit- ful effort of the Holy Name society and all the religious and moral in- struction given by churches and par- ents. The first words spoken by the for- eigner picking up our language in the streets are profane. A distinction of New York profanity perhaps of American profanity, is the unblushing and apparently unconscious use of it on the street, in cars ,in public places, by well-dressed. and prosperous men.

Perhaps there Is no cure for the care- less or viugar or merely unself-con- trolled persons who eject oaths in pub- lic; the sufferings of women from this “coarse expectoration of speech” must be acute and almost continual; the more imperative the need to train the children to clean speech. Some reformed hertoring and curs- ing fellows tell us that they have had much help from substitution of the mildest for the old, strong, rank, sul- phurous sort. of exclamation.
