Mr. Comoli was seventy years end without apparent cause, although of age and came to Westerly from Ttaly forty yvears ago. He was expert as a statue cuttel and carver, and was employed by local granit :oncerns, and was frequently called elsewhere to execute granite work of tho I grade. He is sur and a daughte George of Pee Elroy of Geneva, 2 Mr. Comoli was a member of Frank- lin lodse Free and Accepted Masons, Granite_Council, Royal Arcanum, and of the Westerly branch of the Granite TAG DAY MONDAY IN WESTERLY But it Was Inaugurated by Providence Visitors—Mansuelto Comoli of Pawcatuck Suicides by Shooting—Opening of proceedings ‘for a site for a new post office in"Néwport gave in ‘their report an idea of the folly of- assessors in placing value on property in Newport, which, is:apjlicable to _every other place ‘in ‘the” state, and that includes Westerly. The commissioners . state {hat in arriving at a fair. market value of. the properties condemned, they were not aided by the local assess- ments which were made before im- provements came and have not been revised to keep pace with growth and the increased value of real estate, and therefore bear very little relation to real value.. One of the six tracts cofi- demned now assessed at $13,380, was Eeld at $50,000 by the claimants and at $39.085.75 by the government represen- tatives. The commission was composed of Ex-Governor James H. Higgins, Her- bert L. Dyer and John H. Wetherell and they asked $3000 for their service, $1000 each.. This sum was protested at a hearing before Judge Arthur L. Brown in the United States court, by District Attorney Walter R. Stiness, acting under orders of the department of: justice. the amount being consid- ered: too. large. In reference to t pay, Mr. Hizgins told of the amount % | of Work involved and cited other cases and . the compensation that was pald to commissioners for similar service. Several women Westerly inauguratea young men ‘and young from Providence came to Monday, unheralded and 2 tag day for the bene- fit of the Rhode Island Departmént of United States Volunteer Life collected m: corps. They voted- to placing life-saving equipment at the shore resorts and rivers, lakes and parks of the state. The corps was not privileged to have a tag day in' Pawtucket, the application being officially denied on the ground that aiready two tag d are designated without permit and without sanction of the constituted local authoritigs. The management of the Washington county fair has engaged the East Greenwich band of Kent county to fur- nish the music for the four days of the annual fair at Kingston this month. In consequerice there is just a little bit of feeling among members of bands in ‘Washington county, who feel aggrieved that the county musicians should be ignored by a county organization whose purpose is the booming of Washing- ton county. There are four bands in the county, the Westerly, ~Carolina, Hope Valley and Wakefield, all the equal and some the superior of the Kent county band. It was suggested that ome of these four bands be en- gaged for each day of the fair, in fair- ness to the people of the county, but it was stated that such action would increase the appropriation made for music more than the management cared to pay. In response it was urged that by having a different band all of Washington county, for each day ‘of the fair, the increased cost would be more than balanced by increased attend- ance, a3 naturally friends of the bands would be attracted to the fair to hear their favorite band, and enough to make good the increased appropriation for music. The Past Greenwich band is the same that was engaged by the Cy- clone company of Westerly for the pa- rade in Stonington in connection with the centennial celebration of the battle of Stoninston. Michael J. Burke of Westerly was elected vice president of the Ancient Order of Hibernians of Rhode Island at the biennial convention held Sunday in Providence. Michael Martin of Provi- dence was elected president, John F. Conway of Providence secretary and Michael F. Kelley of Newport treas- urer. . The meeting was opened with State President Martin in the chair, after which Rt. Rev. Thomas F. Dorag of- fered prayer and made an address con- taining advice to the order. Thomas J. Mathews, national or, spoke about the national convent Mrs. Ellen Ryan Jolly, n. dent of the Ladies' auxiis Eliza- et Doyle, state president of the Tadles auxiliary, of Rhode Island, then made addresses pert to the bodies which they repr Mayor h H. Gainer made an address -edentials committee reported ates present. Reports of offi- cers since the last biennial convention annually for worthy objects, and no more would be permitted. The. work- ers came to Westerly and had tag day were read, showing the progress made since two years ago. The membership of the order now totals 2,300, making a met’ gain of 300 for the past two years. It was voted to hold the next state bicnnial convention in Provi- dence. An annual contribution to James Wilson of Central - Falls was voted. Mr. Wilson was one of a num- ber of Irish political prisoners who escaped from Australia some years ago. “The convention went ubon rec- ord as advocating the teaching of Irish history in public and parochial schools. Resolutions were passed by the con- vention as a society and as individuals pledging loyalty and devotion to the mother church and giving expression to deep and sincere sorrow in the loss of the holy father, Pope Pius X, whose recent death was the most conspicuous of all the deplorable consequences.of the terrible war conditions now exist- ing in Europe. The heartfelt gratitude of the con- vention was tendered Rev. Thomas F. Doran, vicar general of Providence dio- cese; Hon. Joseph H. Gainer, mayor of Providence, and Mrs. Ellen Ryan Jolly. The resolutions concluded: “While we deeply deplore the awful disorder caused by the present war in Europe, and while “we signalize with proper pride the fact that never has Ireland as a nation engaged in a war of ag- gression, yet we pledge anew our sym- pathy with the. military organization now known the world over as the Irish National volunteers.” Local Laconics.

Summer Heat Dangerous to Little Ones Whose Bowels Are Neglected. A mother cannét do better for her children than to teach them from their earliest days regularity of the bowels. Regularity can be promoted ‘without the child knowing it by watching its food and by so varying the food that all the elements of digestion are used, when nature will do the rest,- The Tuture health of the child depends upon this, But try as you will there are times when the little one will become con- stipated and bilious. In hot weather immediate attention is necessary as many serious disegses result from stuffed-up bowels. Don’t give salts or cathartics or purgatives, as they are too h: but give | & pleasant ng bowel stimulant like Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin.
