SETTLEMENT MADE IN WATT CASE Brought In Superior Court For Aggregate of $15,000 Dam- ages Through Death of Montville Girl—Estate of Late Louise Parker of This City Was Made Defendant—Hora- | witz vs Haskell Now On Trial. When the superior court opened at New l.ondon Tuesday, Judge Reed presiding with a jury, the first case | called was that of George and Mary Watt of Montville against Danfel S. Guile, administrator of the estate of Louisa Parker, late of Norwich. In this suit the plaintiffs claimed dam- ages for the loss of services of and expenses on behalf of their minor caughter, Agnes Watt, who it was al- ieged died at the age of eighteen years and eight months, in October, 1912, as ihe result of an alleged illegal opera- tion by the defendant’s Intestate, During the morning session of the court, both of the plaintiffs, the father and mother ‘of the deceased girl, tes- tified, stating that the doctor’s bill amounted to $52, and the undertaker’s bill about $130 and the Lawrence hos- pital bill $3, and that their daughter was earning in the Palmer bedquilt mill $6 a week at the time of her death. Dr. Harry Lee of New Lon- don testified, as medical examiner, to being called to the Lawrence hos- pital at New London just before the girl died, and to being present at the time of her death, and also to per- forming an autopsy . The plaintiffs alleged that Mrs. Parker was not a physician or sur- geon, that she was ignorant and un- skilled and that she had advised and was performing a criminal and illegal operation on the girl, who died gt the Lawrence hospital, Saturday, ct. 5, 1912. The plaintiffs also alleged in their complaint that they were put to considerable expense financially and that they were incipacitated and made 1il by the death of their daughter and that they were deprived of her ser- vices. The defense was that ithe relation of master and servant did not exist between Mr. and Mrs. Watt and their daughter at the time of her death or for some time before Mrs. Watt testified that she was not informed of the nature of her daugh- ter’s illness, but was told that there would be a slight operation at the hospital and that her daughter would be home in a week. untll after her what was the nature of that had caused her death Mr. Watt followed Dr, Lee and his testimony was in corroboraticn of that given by Mrs, Watt, When court came in again at two o'clock Judge Reed gave the attorneys interested an oppertunity to imparle, and shortly before 2.20 o’clock the court was informed that the case had been settled upon satisfactory tearms, together with another suit arising out of “the same circumstances, for dam- daughter dead illness was the WE CAN NOW SUPPLY THIS HAIR PREPARATION Our big Harmony Laboratories in Boston have caught up with their orders now and so we won't have to disappoint any who are using Harmony Hair Beautifier and want more of it or any who have been advised by your friends to use it.

HATS, COATS, SUITS, Early Spring Offerings in the Most Desirable Modeis—Pretty Things Noted Tuesday. What color shall the spring hat be? That is the question with the aver- age woman just now. Purples, reseda green, tango, are first favorites in shades the present season. Sulphur is a well liked hue and there are new tints in blue, ocean, in particular Dbeing extremely good. Black, and black and white remain in favor, while black with jet is a top- liner in ¥ashion’s list. Looking about at the opening Tues- day, one hat which attracted atten- tion was a boat-shaped model in brass tinted hemp, with old blue plaiting about the edge and a brass and shaded blue plume. Especially appealing was a Leghorn plateau of straw, faced with pink sat- in veiled with chiffon, banded with plaited cream lace and having a gar- land of pink roses interlaced with wheat. A tango hemp with high wing side was trimmed with a plaiting of tango tints, its finish paradise agrettes. Very attractive was a white Leg- horn with Delft plue facing, Delft os- trich fancy and knot of gay Mexican flowers. A shepardess model in black horse- hair had Delft velvet ribbon across the front. It was banked under the had two smart blue velvet streamers. New and handsome was a French sailor in the fashionable beetroot tints, with narrow ostrich band at the foot of the erown. It was finished back and front with shaded ostrich plumes. Suits, Coats and Dresses. The spring offerings in wraps and suits were never more enticing.

JULIAN L. HARRIS TELLS OF MOHEGANS. | Gives Brief History of Tribe and Tells of Some of tha Well Known Mem- | bers. It was an interesting address which Julian L. Harris gave to the Red Men of Hartford when he told of the Mo- hegan' Indians of which he is a d scendant.. Mr. Harris wore a pictur- esque costume of his tribe with head dress of feathers that fell below his | walst at the back. He was introduced by Sachem Joseph B. Harris and prefaced his address with & brief historical sketch of the tribe and with a story of the battle between the Moheg,\s and the Nar- rangansetts in whi¢h the Norwich In- | dians were nearly annihilated and of | the great Pow Wow which Uncas planned and the subsequent death of his foe Miantonomah at Uncas Gap. He told, too, of Uncas giving the site of Norwich to the whites, retaining only one acre of land for himself, of the land agents who preyed upon the credulity of the Indians, invarialfy beginning their operations as poor men and ending as rich ones, and of the at- tempt to recover the value of their lands from the government. The first chapel for the Indjans and the early religious work among them was briefly described and then Mr. Harris took up the lives of those Indi- | ans whom he had personally known. H!s grandfather was a mechanic and a carpenter and the walls of houses which he bullt 40 years gao in Nor- | wich are in perfect condition, testify- ing to the worth of his work. His aunt, Mrs. Emma Baker, who is still living near Norwich, was the first Indian squaw to learn Latin and she was for many years a teacher. Ehe ! was also president of the historic Wigwam sewing - circle for 40 years. She is now 85 years old and very | feeble. g the other Tndians whose lives the speaker described weres Old Deacon Henry Matthews, who spent most of his life whittling; Oid Sam Brussels, who, it was sald, could whis- tle two tunes at once, and Zachariah Nomnesuch. Zachariah Nonesuch was the old- est and meanest Indian I ever knew.” said the speaker. “One of his peculi- aritles was a fondness for cayenne per. “At every meal he would cover his meat or bread or potatoes with cay- enne pepper in such quantities that if you or I should have tried to eat | it we would have choked to death.” | Perhaps the most interesting char- | acter described by Mr, Harris was | that of his uncle Meses Fielding who | was marvelously skilled in wood crafi | and was known as a crack hunter iu‘ the early days. In an hour’s hunt he would bag & dozen partridges or quail ‘ and he never shot at a bird without | bringing it dewn, Indeed so skilled was he in the seunds of the woods that if & bird rose from its cover he would fire through the bushes and | bring it dewn without having seen it, | se accurate was his ability to locate | sound. “Uncle Moses was the first person i to bring an Irish setter into that part ' of the ceuntry and he and his dog would ge into the woods hunting evey | morning, One time I saw him sheot at-a quail that was flying towards | him. then he held out his game bag | “One of his favorite sports was fox hunting, New a fox can smeill & man at several reds amd unless you know | from which of the tricks of the fox is to stop at | | sun. the secrets of woodcraft you won't be able to get near enough to a fox to shoot it.

For early in the morning they all get out for warmth in the Later in the day they go back to cover.” PLAINFIELD MAN ACQUITTED. Jury Out But Half an Hour in Hopkins Case. H. O.
