THREE Development of Boston, Poflhndvnnd New Boston Men on Trade Extension Trip—Mayor Murphy and Party of 2 Dozen Went From Here to New London Meeting. Mayor T. C. Murphy and a of ten members of the,Norwich Business Men'’s association made up a local del- egation that went to New London on Thursday morning by the 9.45 trolley car for the purpose of meeting a party of members from the Boston chamber of commercé who were touring a num- ber of cities of New England on what was styled a trade extension trip. Tha Norwich men besides the mayor to go to New London were President Frank H. Smith, Vice President Herbert R. Branche, Secretary C. W. Pearson, W. H Otto F. Ernst, B. C. Jewett, E. J. Hunt, William E. Woods, A. R Grover and D. T. Shea. The time of the Boston party in New London was so short that the visitors were compelled to get right down to business and have the meet- ing they propesed to hold at the rooms of the Business Men's association and in the hall of the German club on the upper floor of the Brainurd building. President Rogers of the New London association opened the meeting in a brief introduction and told of the pur- pose of the visitors in coming to New Iaondon. He was followed by C. W. Barron of the Boston News Bureau, George H. Carter, vice president of the Shawmaut bank, J. B. Holden, chairman of the committee which arranged the trip. and Secretary Cummings. Develop the Harbors. Trade extension was the theme of the addresses of the speakers and they handled them so well that everyone was pleased and educated by the facts brought out. The three great harbors of New England are New London, Bos- ton and Portland, and these, the speakers heid, should be developed so that - the great advantages that are possible may be attained. Mr. Barron gave a symposium of the advantages of New England and invited the gen- tlemen present to ask any questions they desired to. He asked the co-oper- ation of all commercial bodies in the effort to secure what was sought— trade extension. London Urged by The chamber of commerce men told the delegations that some time during the year all the organizations visited on this trip were to be invited to visit Boston. 3 Other speakers included Mayor Mur- phy of Norwich, A. L. Pitcher of Mys- tie, J. T. Cruttenden of Niantic and Theodore Bodenwein of New London. The special car with its, party left New London at 12.565, the party being escorted to the rallway station by & large delegation. The train bearing the Bostonians mained there till 6 o'clock Thursday evening. Thelr purpose i3 outlined in the following statement: “Believing that business prosperity in general depends largely upon the good will and confidence which can be established only through the medium of personal acquaintanceship and real- izing the mutual interdependence of Boston and New England in business affairs, this delegation of Boston busi- ness men is journeying through south- ern Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut for the purpose of getting better acquainted with your men ‘of affairs.” Business Meesting. After the Boston party had left New London the delegation from Norwich, Willimantic, Putnam and Danielson met at.an informal luncheon at the Crocker house€, where further arrange- ments were made about the eastern Connecticut magazine which is to be published. The subject of an industrial map of this region was also under discussion, and it was arranged to work towards this and to obtain one of the rural free delivery route maps from the postal department as a means of getting at the territory which is to be covered. Visited Manual Training School. After the business was over one of the particularly interesting experiences of the trip for the out of town delega- tions was given in a visit to the New London Manual Training school. i AS TO TAX EXEMPTIONS. Memorandum Concerning Uncertain Paragraph Given Out by Collector. An additional ruling of the intgrnal revenue, department concerning ex- emptions from being subject to the application of the income tax was given out by Collector Walsh Thurs- day on receipt of information from the federal department.

The criminal terms of the superior iourt convened at the courthouse in New London Thursday morning, but edjourned -‘immediately to Monday morning at 10 o'clock in Norwich. —_— BETTER THAN BAlllMElr Thousands Have Discovered Edwards’ Olive Tablets are a Harmless Substitute. Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets—the sub- stitute for calomel—are a mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver is almost instantaneous. They are the resuit of Dr. Edwards’ determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel. His efforts to banish it brought out these little olivewolored tablets. These pleasant little tablets do the good that calomel does but have no bad after effects. They don’t injure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. Bo do strong liquids. It is best not to take calomel, but to let Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets take its place. Most headaches, “dullness” and that lazy feeling come from constipation and a disordered liver. Take Dr. Ed- wards’ Olive Tablets when you feel loggy” and “heavy”. Note how they 2l clouded brain and how they perk up” the spirits. At 10c and 25c P pox. The Olive Tablet Company, Columbus, O.

ADDRESS LETTERS RIGHT. Importance of Correct Addresses Em- phasied by Postoffice Department. Postmaster Caruthers has received a circular communication from First Assistant Postmaster Generai Roper asking his co-operation in relieving the postal service of the burden of incom- pletely and improperly addressed mail matter. The circular says: . “The delivery of letters, especially in the large cities, is frequently de- layed, and often times made impossi- ble, by the omission of an important part of the address, such as the street number, or the room number, when ad- dressed to an office Jbuilding. Not in- frequently the name of the street is omitted, only the name of the postoffice and state being given. Another source of trouble is the practice of giving an address at the intersection of two streets without giving the location of the corner, for, in some large cities, a number of carriers’ routes may ter- minate at that point, or it may be the dividing line between the respective territories of the malin postoffice and a station, or two stations, and, in the absence of the notation, N. E. N. W., €te., the-distributors are unable to de.. termine to which carrier the mail should be thrown. “The increasing carelessness on the part of the publit in addressing mail is no doubt aided and abetted by the practice of the department in supply- ing deficient addresses and also by the exploitation in newspapers of the abil- ity of some clerks to decipher ‘freak’ addresses. “Postmasters should advise their patrons that complete and accurate addresses are essential to prompt mail | delivery and that they should co-op- erate to the extent of seeing that all i mail originated by them bears a street | number, or room number, in the case of an office building. in addition to the name of the city and state.” | BROWNIE SOCIETY. Norwich Member of the Committee Which Arranged Colonial Ball. _Sayles gymnasium, Brown univer- | sity, was a gay sight on Wednesday { evening when the Brownie association i gave a Colonial ball. Some of the | students appeared as gallant youths ith powdered wigs, satin cloaks and knee breeches: others as courtly dames or dainty maidens with full skirts, @its and bouquets, The most attractive figures during the dancing were the grand march at the beginning, the minuet in the mid- die and the Virginia reel at the end. Miss King, Miss Ross, Miss Bates and Miss Danielson were the guests of honor and all «wore attractive eighteenth century gowns, The president of the society, Miss Crooks and the board members, Miss H, Sisson, Miss H.

Senator Frank B. Brandegee was in front of the Mohican at 5 o’clock yes- terday afterndon talking to a couple of friends. Anotter approached to re- mark that the newspapers were print- ing some nice things about Mr. Bran- degee, and just then he npticed the senator had a lighted <cigarette be- tween his fingers. “Better drop the cigarette, senator,” said he. “If the voters ever find out that you smoke cigarettes, it's all off.” “If 1 get the vote of all who do smoke cigarettes, there won't be any doubt of the result.”” he promptly reé- GORHAM STERLING SILVER and a choice selection of CUT GLASS, handsome designs and beautiful cutting, These make the best of Wedding Gifts.

WORKING ON BULLETIN. Expects to Publish Law in L-ngulgc Public Can Understand. The members of the workmen’s com- pensation commission appointed by Governor Baldwin to execute the pro- visions of the new compensation act for workingmen held a meeting Wed- nesday afternoon and evening in the office of Commissioner George B. Chandler in Hartford, continuing de- ilberations and preparations of forms for the filing and reporting of accidents and claims until after 11 o'clock at night. They met again ~Thursday morning and continued their’ work un- til a late hour in the afternoon. % Besides the legal forms which it is incumbent upon the commission to prepare, and on which all cases for the consideration of the commission must be reported by prrties complain- ing or filing claims for injuries sus- tained, the commission is engaged in, the writing of a bulletin of informa- | tion. Commissioner E, T. Buckingham of Bridgeport said: “The commission is working on-a bulletin which will give a summary of the law in language which the general public can easily understand, and which will give, simplified as much as possible, the relation of the law to employe and employer. Commission’s Power. The public should® understand that the commissioners are virtually judges of a new court, and that a great many cases will have to be judged upon their individual merits, after the evi- dence on both sides has been submit- ted and considered.” Practically a new judgeship is created by the bill, which will . be the court of first resort in cases that formerly would have been tried in the court of common pleas or the superior court. The commission may be said, in popular language, to constitute a ‘“‘compensation court,” from which an appeal may he taken in case of dissatisfaction with its decrees, to the superior court. All agréements between employer and employe in case of the settlement for an injury must be approved by the commissioner for the district in which the injury hap- pens. Each commissioner is a judge in his own district. The mere judicial duties of the members of the commis- sion in their several districts, outside of the stated hearings held by them, is going to cause much work for them, for they are presumed to inquire thor- oughly into the circumstances of each case before approving of any settle- ment. 2 The issuing of the legal forms is in itself a rather difficult task for the commission, since it has no precedent by which to be governed in making them out. s Working Hard. The commission, said Mr. Bucking- ham, has been working hard since Oct. 1. It has been meeting in sub- committees two and three times. each week in New Haven and Hartford, and in full meetings once a week, in order to have everything in readiness by Jan. 1, when the law goes into effect. The members of the commission are Dr. James J. Donohue of Norwich, E. T. Buckingham of Bridgeport, Talcott Russell of New Haven, Frederic Wil- llams of Waterbury and George B. Chandler of Rocky Hill INSURANCE COMPANY CANNOT FIND POLICY Complication Arises in Trial of Suit Before Superior Court. In tha superior court, civil side, at New London, Wednesday, the trial of the case of Mrs, Mary Longo against the City of New York Insur- ance Co. for damages for loss by fire to stock and fixtures of a grocery and meat store which she conducted at 19 Shaw street, Feb. 24, 1910, was re- sumed before Judge Gardiner Greene The plaintiff is sulng for $1,500 dam- ages, claiming fraud on the -part of the defendant company in not paying her the insurance. The defendant com- pany claims that a policy which she had with the company for $800 had been cancelled previous to the fire. When court opened shortly after 10 o’clock Augustus C. Stearns of Quaker Hill, agent for the defendant com- pany, was put on the stand. He said he knew Mrs. Longo before the policy was issued. On the day -the policy was issued he gave it to Patrick A. Sheridan, who was doing business with him, with Instructions to deliver and collect, * . He identified a letter from the home office of the company in New York, addressed to him, which stated that the company did not issue policies on stock of this charaecter in the names of married women and asking him ta take up the policy which he had is- sued, He made out another policy in the Security- Insurance company of New Haven for the same amount. ‘At this point in the witness’ testi- mony, Attorney Robbins for the de- fendant company stated that he would like to put W. A. Thomson of New Haven, cashier and superintendent of the Security Insurance Ceo., on the stand, stating that he had been sub- poenaed to come to court and bring the policy in question with: him. Mr. Thomson went on the stand and tes- tifled that the policy could not be found. Attorney Hadlai A, Hull for the plaintiff, questioned the witness as to the system of handling policies in the office, which was continued at length. The witness testified that he and the assistant secretary of the company had made careful search of the cabinet file where cancelled policies are kept and it could not be found. He sald that BACKACHE AND RHEUMA A} the blood, and drive it out of the sys- tem. A So sure—so positive—so quick lasting are the results obtained Croxone, that three doses a day for a few days, are often all that is required to end the worst backache, regulate the most annoying bladder disorders, and put the kidneys in healthy, active con- dition. It is practically impossible to take this quick-acting, effective preparation, without results. An original package costs but a trifle, and all druggists are authorized to re- turn the purchase price if Croxone fails to promptly give desired results, re- gardless of how old you are or how long you have suffered.

A request to suspend Mr. Stearns’ tes- timony temporarily to allow Miss Lucy F. Riley, a former clerk and steno- grapher of Mr. Stearns, who came here |' from Danbury to testify, was allowed and Miss Rilev went on the stand. She was employed in Mr. Stearns’ office at the time of the cancellation of the policy of the defendant company and the issuing of the new policy in the Security Insurance Co, and recollected cancelling the old and issuing the new policy at the request of her employer.
