Grand Regent Bkmark is recelving ongratulations upon the resuit of the campaign which he began early in June, and which seems to have result- ed thus far in the Initiation of approx- imately fifty new members. During the course of this movement a joint meet- ing of the councils in New Haven re- sulted in the initiation of 24 candidates and the acceptance of a number of other applications who have been ini- tlated since that time. A similar meet- ing was held in Meriden with the coun- cils from Wallingford and Middle- town also present. Four candidates were initiated by the degree team of Alfred H. Hall council, No., 1423, and the ' foundations laid for additional work. Still later a union meeting of Hon, Newell Sanders, chairman of | the citizens' committee of the Chatta- | nooga Encampment association, h: returned to Chattanooga from a two | months' two to Burope and resumed, | in connection with Executive Director | John A. Patten, work on the Grand Army of the Republic arrangements | for the coming meeting. During_ the absence of Senator Sanders, Mr. Pat- ten directed the work alone, giving it his entire time. Chairman Sanders was well pleased with the great| amount of work done during his ab-| sence, and expects the coming en- | campment. to be one >f the most suc- | cessful the G. A. R. has ever ~eld. He: reports much interest in the eastern states over the meeting and thinks the | attendance will be large. H The encampment arrangements have | progressed to the .point where the greatest success is assured so far as Chattanoosa's preparedness is concern- | The committee charged with se- uring homes for all visitors who de- IN TORTURE WITH TERRIBLE ERUPTION Horriblyltching Pimples. Scratched Till Bled. Thoroughly Miserable. Used Cuticura Soap and Oint- | ment. Trouble Disappeared. Watkins Park, Edgewater-on-the-Hud- | son, N. J. — * About two years ago I had a terrible breaking out of horribly itching pimples all over the stom- ach and upper part of my legs. I was in torture and scratched till ‘T bled and could only sleep fitfully at night and was so glad o soo the day dawn. I was foverish and thoroughly mis- erable. The reddish pim- | ples had got a head on them | corpuscles. I rubbed them with a rough cloth, they itched so. They blended together and made sores about; the size of a nickel and scabbed over. My cloth- ing irritated the sores so that I put a damp handkerchief next to them. Some said it ‘was the ftch and others the hives. “1 took several treatments but got no relief. 1 was suffering for over six woeks when I began with the Cuticura Soap and Ontment. T washed myself with Cuticura Boap and hot water every night and when I had dried myself T rubbed the Cuticura Otntment thoroughly fn and to my astonish- ment by the end of a week the whole troubls bad disappeared and ths old skin brushed off. T have not had a ign of & spot on my body since.” (Signed) C. W. Charles, Nov. 9, 1912, Cuticura Scap 25¢. and Cuticura Ofntment 50c. are sold everywhere.

Not even those who are responsibie for putting the rail- road at the expense of erecting the bridge use the new route over the tracks. No ene denies that the cross- sing of itself is one of the most dangeroug in existence: vet it has been so safely guarded that not a single fatality has oceurred at that dangerous crossing since it has been in existence and that is a great many years ago. The real danger is removed by the alert crossing tenders, whe are on theix job every minute, and not hy reason of that new and useless everhead bridge. The railroad employes at and about the station are always on the lookout for the safety of the public and that's a reason why accidents do not occur in the vicinity. Here's a case in point. One evening less than a week ago, by the remarkably prompt action of James Finnegan, the night station agent and yard master, with like co-operation of Engineer George Watrous, the poph- lation of the world is not decreased by just one more man. This man with bag on back was hurrying to get to the boat for New York although he had a leeway of two and one-half hours. He started for the boat at a point about thirty feet below the crossing and in so doing he stumbled against a rail and fell on the track directly in front of the locomotive of the 8.5 train for Norwlch. The locomotive was bzcking down to take the. cross-over. and. go up. on another track to get at the head of the train.. Mr. Finnegan, lantern in band, was riding on the rear end of the tend- er,-as a precaution of public safety. He had lantern in hand and was pre- pared to signal Engineer Watrous in an emergency. That emergency came when Mr. Finnegan saw the man fall on the track not three feet from the slowly moving locomotive. He gave the signal to stop with such rapidity that the lantern light was extingulsh- ed, but the engineer heard the shout, saw the signal to stop, and that lece- motive did stop within six inches of that prostrate man, When the danger was over that man picked himself up, swung his bag oyer his shoulder, and soampered off in the direction of the boat just as if nothing out of the ordinary had happensd, When he reached the boat and was told of his narrow eseape by hig comrades in their netive tengus he mlmost fainted, In the meantime the efficient railroad em. ployes wers perf the werk re- ormin auired of them and witheut a werd of their timely action that saved the life of a eareless fellow man, The new Manwaring buiiding is new occupied and the beautiful steucture adds materiaily te that section of the street destined to be the handsomest biock i the whole city, with the Mo- hican building at one end and the First Congregational church at the ether. Adjoining the Mehican, Mr. Munsey has | struction of the new building. &iven contract for another building and it's a safe bet that the new structure will be in keeping with the best. With this building completed the only building that will be out of respectable company will be that occupied by the Young Men’s Christian association, the only wooden structure in the block. It is only a matter of time when this will be replaced by a modern structure, but perhaps not by the christian associa- tion, the present owners of the proper- ty. This association after many years of persistent effort has r: ed stantial building fund, about 000, almost enough to commence to build, but not on the site of the present building. It has been officially an- nounced that the new building will be erected elsewhere and the price real- ized frem the sale of the State street property will aid materially in the con- There sure has beem a big change in that | séetion of State street since Frank A, | Munsey came to tewn and extended | the territerial limit of that street and gave New London a real | citified appearanee. | That new municipal building is on the same side of the street and is | easily the handsomest building in the | whole couaty. The exterior is nearly | completed and just new -the building | is_belng cleaned and the scaffelding taken down as the cleaning process progresses. It has the appearance of white marble structure, and its mass- iveness and beauty is the pride of the city. As stated in this column' when the matter of building was under con- sideration, the cost will be more than was expected, but that makes little or no difference to New London people when full value is received for the coin expended. It was so with the new sidewalks and it is just the same with the new municipal building. Al- ready the building is occasionally re- fefred to as a monument to Mayor Mahan's progressive spirit. without which the city would have no decent ‘sidewalks, no adequate municipal bufld- ing, no harbor development with a million from the state and no nothing of public consequence. If the old con- servative business methods of figur- ing the cost to a cent and a farthing of public improvements had prevail- ed ‘the cfty would have continued in the same old rut and remained the same old New London. 2 Boston Policewomen.
