Let us show you how. Western City. There is a romance, far removed from the ordinary, everyday prosaic course of affairs, in the marriage that the black-robed Greek priest perform- ed Sunday evening in the modest tene- ment house at 218 West Main street. It is a romance started on the far-off isle of Crete, south of Greece, in the midst of the blue waters of the Med- iterranean, but its course has led over the ocean and across the American continent and back, 50 that there is a Story behind the wedding of James Doulas of Spokane, Wash., and pretty Ellen Scaverlio, who two months ago came to Norwich from her native isle, here to meet her lover and become his bride. : Ten years ago the happy bridegroom of this week was living a simple peas- ant’s life near city of Arkanos, in Crete, the abode of the fabled Minotaur of old and the birthplace of much that is important In art and literature and civilization. And neighbors and friends of his in the city were the families of the Scaverllos, John the father with his wife and his budding daughters. But sweetest of all of them was little Ellen, then a light-haired lass of 12. To John Doundalakos—for that is the way he writes the name that he has since, for business convenience, shortened to Doulas—came ons that were too large to be kept within the limits of little Crete. He had :he spirit, bold and adventurous, of his QGreek ancestors beating in his veins. And so seven years agé he left that little world behind him and presently, all alone, he found himself facipg New York. He spent two years in the big city; then he felt the call of the west. For the last five years he has been in Spokane, and there he has built up a James Doulas Wedded Here to Girl He Loved in Crete— * Parted for Seven Years While He Came to Seek His Fortune in America—Is Prosperous Merchant in the TOTAL ABSTINENCE SOCIETIES state president. flourishing business for a Greek res- |*'38 PriRderc = taurant and a grocery store besides. But all the time he did not forget litle Ellen and the Scaverlios. The competition of American business life was not *keen enough for that. He sent back his photograph, and his old Cretan friends admired the progress- ing young business man in his dapper American_clothes. Little Ellen even found a place for him in her heart. He really is a fine looking man of 34, dark halr, rich eyes, and a manner open and inviting. And she is 22, and a fetching blond. Ten months ago the father, John Scaverlio, with two of his daughters, came to this country, and $o it hap- pened to Norwich to blaze the way for the coming of the rest of his family. And when he had prepared a place— and the young man in Spokane kept in close touch with all developments— the mother and her other daughter and a young son completed the family circle on this side of the water. Then, having prospered and stored up money enough to start them with econom James Ddulas started from the Pacific coast several weeks ago. The wed- ding was performed at § o'clock Sun- duy evening by Father Agadaz Gala- deinos, and the documents, all in Greek, are safely put away. For on Wednesday the groom takes his young bride from her kin at 218 West Main street and goes back to his business on the coast. ing is broken by his plans to come back east in a year—for he thinks he can have an even better hnciness here than in the west—and by the strenstn of their love. For, aiwe all, it is a mistake, a profound one, to even think of love as a prosaic thing. No. 460 Main street. evil. Willlam P. of his mother.

The splash of water from the projectile on the first shot by that company put out the Jantern on the pyramidal target. The seventh and final shot struck the tar- get_and completely demolished it. The Eighty-Seventh made but one miss in its string. The shots were fired with ten-inch guns at ranges of from 6,700 yards to 5,000 yards. The seventh shot,_that which Rit the little target, was fired at a range of 5100 yards. All of the other shots, except the fifth fell withip the distance of the target allowed for the size of a battleship and were “hits” Steamer General J. M.

The direction of the firing was a general southerly one and Was advised to avoid that locality. AT THE AUDITORIUM. Vaudeville and Motion Picture: A musical treat was in store for the patrons of the Auditorium on Monday by reason of the appearance there of Armand De Caesar, a talented young Violinist from New York, who has been passing some time with friends at Gardner Lake this summer. It was his first appearance on the vaudeville stage, although he has had much ex- perience in concert work and at so- clety functions, but he executed his numbers with a smoothness of tech- nique that left nothing to offend the most critical of his audiences. In fact, he was called back by repeated bursts of applause half a dozen times after his first appearance Monday evening. A large number of his Gardner Lake friends were in the house to assist in glving him an enthusiastic reception. Monsleur DeCaesar combined classical themes with a rendition of popular medleys, and it was a performance that augured well for a successful fu- ture. He has been a pupil of L. J. Cornu of New York, and although he is now well advanced, he is and will continue to be a learner. For that is the secret of achievement. With & touch of comedy. Devereaux and Milburn made a worthy contribu- tion to the bill, and in gems of grand opera. D'Orva and DeLeon helped make up the delightful musical programme. The pictures included the serial Trey o' Hearts and were well received. FUNERALS. Theron E. Brown. From the mortuary chapel of Henry Allen and Son, the funeral of Theron E.

Fur- ther particulars will be suppiled at the county agent’s office, for this is surely a subject that every dairyman In Con- necticut is interested An. The first of the purchasing agencies that the county agent intends to in- augurate before the coming season is to be carried out. At the request of several of the farmers throughout the county, the county agent is arranging to purchase several carloads of lime for seeding_ this fall and next spring. It enough farmers are ready to pur- chase this fail the order will be sent in next week: if not, it will be left till next spring. Much inconvenience was found this year in the fact that the lime conerns could not fill their orders and orders at this time will therefore avoid the rush, and since it will 1ot deteriorate the county agent is ad- vising that now is the chance to gec together and obtain the advantage of buying in large quantities. No land in this county that has not been limed within the last few years will fall to pay a profit on any amount of lime up to two tons per acre. A large share of the farmer's trouble with his land is in its acidity.

Senator Brandegee is pleased with the Republican outlook in Connecticut. He says the Brilgeport meeting was a great success. The Bull Moose strength in Connecticut has decreased greatly since 1912, he says. Mr. Bran- degee predicts that his former rival for senatorial honors, ex-Representa- tive E._J. Hill of Norwalk, will be nominated for congress by the Repub.- licans of Fairfield county and elected in November. As for legislative situation here, Mr. Brandegee said that the trade commission will be held up in the conference committee between the two houses of congress until after the Clayton omnibus anti-trust bill has passed the senate, so that the putting of the two into final form can be con- sidered together,, owing to their in- terrelated provisions. “It makes little difference what the republican sena- tors do or the senate does with the so-called anti-trust bills”, said ir. Brandegee. “The actual laws wil be written in the conference committees and the president wil practically write them.” Mr. Brandeges voted against an amendment to the so-called war risk intsurance bill, to anthorize the gov- ernment insurance bureau to insure the lives of members of the crews of merchant ships that might be imper- iled by war conditions in Europe.
