OBITUARY. Michael Burns. The life of Michael Burns came to a peaceful end at his home, 234 Broad street, on Thursday afternoon at 4.30 o'clock, after two weeks' {llness. Born in Herbertstown, County Limerick,Irs- land, in the year of 1838 and coming to this country at 14 years of age, hg entered the employ of the late Ansel Clark, where he remained for 34 years. He was an ardent member of St Mary’s T. A. B. society, having joined some fifty years ago in the basement of St, Mary's church, Miss Margaret Mullin, who survives him, along with eight children—John C, of Cincinnati, Ohio, Thomas F., Michael S., Joseph E., Eligabeth, Mar- garet, Mary A. and Mrs. D. J. Sahan, all of this city. There are also nine grandehildren left to mourn his loss. He is the last of his immediae family, a sister having died in October ,1912, Arrested for Bridgeport Police. Chief of Police Linton was notified on Wednesday afternoon by ‘the Bridge- port police to locate a man by the name of Charles F. Wilson, @& bridge builder, who was supposed to be in this city and whe is wanted in Bridge- port for non-support of his wife and children. The police located the man ‘Wednesday evening in a rooming house on Franklin square, and took him to the police station. Wilson says he is 35 years old and claims that he was sending money home to his family, but on account of the cold wave he has been idle and could hardly meet his own needs. Thursday afternoon De- tective Hall came on from Bridgeport and took back the man with him on the 2.55 train. Buster Elionsky Sick. Henry Hlionsky, the swimmer, is sick at his home in New London.

It is on this law that the grow- ing demand for advertised arii- cles is baged. By experience many people have ceme to know that an arti- cle put cut ynder a definite name and backed up by advertising is, in a certain sense, a standard of value, It stands for something definite and tangible. It is to be preferred to an ar- ticle of “unknown ancestry.” This very same law is what is prompting so many national ad- vertisers to use the newspapers in preference to any other medi- um. They give a better standard of value or in other words produce quicker and more definite sales for a giwen cest, than would be produced through other thannels. Trade follows value as surely as night follows day. For evidence—watch the ever- growing volume of advertising in this newspaper. He was marrfed 63 years ago to Judge Juel B.

There is a difference between the attitude of Norwich audiences and New London, according to a conversa- tion pecently heard between a young Wwoman manager of an entertainment course and a man who was in the talk generally regarding entertainments that appealed to a particular class, and these above the level of the common run of humanity. For instance, she recgiled the gecent performance of | an orchestra from Philadelphia at Nor- wich, a costly undertaking in its ad- vance guarantee, and attended by many from New London. The partic- ular mention in regard to this attitude of an audience in contrast was thar at the conclusion of the last numbe: the applause was so persistent as to demand a final recoganition on the part of the players. | . “Now, in New London” said she { “by the time the last number is over | half the peaple are getting into their jam | coats and things, and the few who ! have the feeling to applaud are drown- | ed out in the general confusion of a hurried departure.” Come to think ahout it, the young woman speaks truly. Of course it iy not complimentary to the people who are on the program and they may be the best ever. It makes no difference. The getaway beging befors the last beat of the music or the last trill of the song. It is discourteous, an evi dence of ill manners, personal selfish.- ness, and so on. But there is nothing { vou can do about it. | " Anyhow, we doubt that people are any more refined in Norwich than in New London. Maybe it is becauge they move slower in Norwich, takes a longer time to get it through them— | do "not absorb things so quickly we do in New London.

From nine in the morning iill nine at night on Thursday the force of twenty-seven clerks at the F. A. Wells company store had a busy time as it was the opening day of the fire sale and they were glad of the half hour intervals that came at noon and from 5.30 to 6 when opportunty was given to arrange stock. Preparations for the sale were made in a suitable way and the windows were protected against breakage by a special heavy framework built in front of them, which also served as a sign- board. Policeman Myron O. Morgan was at the door and saw that the crowds were well handled as they were let in in relays. Patrons who attended the sale fdund bargains on all sides and there was an especially heavy sale on suits and on overcoats.

MAIN ESTATE. Hearing Before Ledyard Judge of Pro- bate—$37,900 Now in Their Hands. Upon the citation issued by Judge of Probate Samuel. 8. Holdredge of town before him on Thursday morning upon the petition of John L. Main; old: est son of the late William L. Main, to have Jacob Gallup of this city and Willlam 1. Fanning show cause why they have not rendered their final ac- count as executors under the wiil of William L. Main. The hearing was a harmonious one and the (Wo executors ap: made a report of the present condition’ of the funds in their hands and agreed to render a final account and distribution at a hearig to be held on March 15ta. The court session occupled a good part of the morning and afternoon. Most of the interested heirs were present, and Attorney Allyn 1. Brown appeared for the petitioner, John L. Main, who is the oldest son of tae late William L. Main. _The executors were not represented by counsel. The executors reported that the as- ses of the estate had now all been re- duced to cash and now amounted to $37.900.45, with interest, which was in eight savings bank accounts, ineluding 3177792 which is tied up by Thames Loan and Trust company re: ceivership. By the will of William L. Main, who died June 20, 1890, the estate of over $100,000 was left to his several chil- dren and others, to be paid over by the executors at certain intervals, the final payment to be made six months after the death of Julia A. Main, the testa- tor's wife. Julia A. Main died in April, 1918, and no final distribution of the estate has yet been made. It was al- leged that no account of the (rust funds has been rendered to the pro- bate court since 1907. _By his will Willlam L. Main gave to his wife, besides personal property, the income of $3,000 and the use and in- come from the so-called Perkins and Pratt land, or, in lieu thereof, the in- come of $1,500, with an adequate sup- port for six months after his death. To his son, John L. he gave $5,000, which was to include a $2,000 note of John L. Main. To his son, Leeds Main, he gave $5,000, which was to include some indcbtecness to the testator, with a provision to carry the legacy along to the son's wife and children in case of the son's death. Other bequests were $1,000 to the testator’s grand- daughter, Mrs. Sarah A. Holdredg $1,000 to his grandson, James L, Har rington; $5,000 to his son, Ira Main; $3,000 to his daughter, Lourie Mal; land and bulldings in Milltown estl mated at $3.000 in value to his dauzh ter, Mrs. Frances A.

Willis Austin Writes to State Commis- sion—Thinks Littls of English Pheasants. Some timely inquiries are made re- garding the protection of game birds in a letter from Willis Austin to the fish and game commission of the state. He writes as follows: I am very much interested in the conditions of fish and game in this section, believing it to be, naturally, one of the best on the Atlantic coast, and in that I have ever shot over, This last season season) produced marny quail and ruf- fed grounse. Increase, as the previous year the co- verts were practically barren of game. | Not only game birds, but insectivorous birds have increased to a remarkable extent in the past year. We went into this winter, even after a very open shooting season, which, of ceurse, | means a great deal of shooting, with a | remarkable supply of game birds, in fact, more than at the close of a sea- son of 20 years ago. At the beginning of this week a very deep snow was ushered in, which crusted over, and I notice that even the birds that live around the houses are finding it living. it impertient if I ask vou what the New London county warden and his deputies. and game protectors are do- ing for the protection and preservation of a remarkably fine crop of game birds. 1 gave a great deal of time and at- |tnetion to the passage of the new game law, and would feel it gratifying, Pardon my entering a severe protest against this siate spending any time, energy or money on the rearing of the English ring necked pheasant. This is not a game bird, as shot in this coun- ery, except by Dr. Webb in Massachu- setfs, who has an_ annual drive, at which thousands of these birds are | Kkilled. | I think if you have ever shot this heasant, as I have, in Connectiout coverts, you will agree with me that it would bs in no way superior to hunting the Plymouth Rock rooster.

Hollis of New Hampshire; George K. Wickersham, | former United States attorney gen- eral, and Representative Carlin of Vir_ ginia were the principal speakers at a meeting of the Academy of Political Science here tonight. “The relation of the federal government to industrial | combinations” was the subject under | | discussion. Senator Hollis, | who classified him- | | self as “a radical democrat from a conservative state” acted as chair- man. He declared that the democratic party may still believe that federal control is an evil to be avoided when- ever possible, but it must recognize the need for eflicient control of pri- vate monopoly and insofar as present needs compel a departure from old policies, it must keep step with the | progress of events. Mr. Wickersham smilingly declared that if Senator Hollis had not an- | nounced himself a democrat he would ave thought that he was @ good re- ublican. The former attorney gen- | eral declared that the present Sherman anti-trust law is entirely adequate to reach any “private monopoly” which may exist and affect interstate com- | merce without resort to further legis- lative aid. Representative Carlin said: “There has been nothing proposed and in my judgment nothing will be proposed, which has for its object the destru tion of the game of business. We are simply _contemplating changing the | rules by which the game may be | played with greater fairness by all who | wish to enjoy its privileges and its pleasures.” Wilson's Policy Not Disapproved. Berlin, Feb. 26.—The German foreign office today emphatically denied a re- port published in America that Ger manv had expressed to the state de- partment in Washington its disapprov- | al of President Wilson’s policy in Mexico and had suggested that the United States was making a serious mistake in not recognizing Provisional President Huerta.
