NORWICH BULLETIN, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 1914 Former Westeriy Principal Promoted vDr. W. H. Perry, Rejected by as Head of Leominster Schools—Coal Bin Fire Soon Ex- tinguished —Lights Shut tages. A special Stonington town meeting was called last month for the purpose of hearing the report of a special com- mittee previously appointed to invesil- gate the school conditions in the town make such recommendations as ged x::oember! saw fit. The several dras- tic measures taken resulted in askine the superintendent to resign. Noa comes the announcement that Dr. W. H. Perry, who has been superintendent of - Stonington’s schools for the past four years, or since the present school system has been put into practice, has Dbeen appointed superintendent of the schools of Leominster, Mass. In spite of the false impression that the schools of Stonington were being managed detrimental to the best interests of the community, the school committee from the Massachusetts town, which has a population of 18,000 (nearly twice the size of the town of Stonington) came on some timé ago to meet Superin- tendent Perry and also to meet a number of citizens of the borough fur the purpose of finding out just how the schools of the town had been man- eaged during the term of the present superintendent, and results that he and his teachers were securing. Short- ly after their return Dr. Perry was unanimously elected aupaflm.end.‘en:a;{ ‘the t ‘school committee, or until the !:’:u schools of the’ town had gotten under way for the year's work, to remain until the first of October, and has since his appointment sent in his resignation, to take effect The Stonington- superintendent, who is a graduate of Syracuse university. and hes no little experience in teach- ing_and the conduct of scho:na.u mt g ‘Westerly five years ago: to 2 2 t of the Westerly schools h Soto Seaduate work Holfmes, who was. e worl at Clark un‘llvgnl!y l%;m P;ll hd'octort:t hilosophy degree. le here, the Zown of Stoninglon adopted the pres- ent town school system and, appre- the work that Dr. Perry had aoccomplished during his brief stay in ‘Westerly, offered him, the place. of su- tendent, which he accepted.

For a number of years after her marriage to Willlam L Martin in 1869 she lived in Alton and Ashaway, removing to. Westerly about 15 years ago. Besides her two childrer, £tta and Edward, she is survived by a srother and sister who live in Gales- jurg. As a young girl Mrs. Martia as interested . in _religious. matters :d joined the Methodist church in Ever since her residence in Wester- ly she has suffered from rheumatism. Four years ago she fell and fractured her hip, with the result that she has not been able to leave her bed since. [ All during that period she has borne her suffering with Christian fortitude. The daughter, Etta; has been devoted to her:invalid mother, caring for her night and day.

Spontal combustion was the cause of a fire discovered early-Thurs- day morning in the coal bins of An- drews & company - on lower Main street. Both the Cyclone and Rhode Island Ones of the Westerly fire de- partment were quick to respond with the autotrucks and had water playing on-the blaze. It took only a few min- utes before the fire was under control, although President Oliver C. Andrews remained on the premises for the rest of the night, lest the "Dlaze should H_|again break out. Little damage was done to property. The ‘late fall suits residents of Pleasant View, and some 250 are still at the shore enjoying the fine weath- er. Now théy are disturbed because the electric light service that they have had for the past three or four months has been done away with for the remainder of the year. That the cottagers are much incensed over ‘the act of the Wesferly Light and Power company is- putting it mildly. Some. of the more wrought up members of the cottage colony, and there were a number, volunteered-to have an inter- view with the ment of the Westerly company, tried to investigate the matter and find out why they were being treated 80, but they received no satisfaction. Théy were informed that the light committee of the town had instructed the company to shut off the Power and they had simply followed instructions, It was learned that the extra lights used at Watch Hill during the summer had also_been shut off, but the lights at Weekapaug were still burning as brightly as though the sea- son was at its height. It has been customary to have light service at the shore resorts until the first of October, but for some unex- plained remson it has been taken off ‘the middle of the month. There are 58 cottagers still at- Pleasant View who had intended to remain until the first of October. Local Lacenics.

WILL BE HEAVY DEMAND FOR AMERICAN GOODS IN FRANCE. Machinery and Manufactured Goods of All Sorts Will_ Be Wanted. New York, Sept. 17.—Future demand for Ametican goods in France will be enormous, according. to an opinion ex- pressed in a cablegram received here today from Franklin Johnston, 'pub- lisher of The American Expo: message, which was dated Paris, Sept. 14, apparently was delaved in trans- mission. It reads as follows: “Business conditions here are re- markably good, considering all the cir- cumstances, and are improving day by day. - There has been an especially marked improvement this week. All shipping routes from France are open. Considerable manufacturing is stlil going on and exports of the specialties and luxuries which are typically. French continue good. “The future demand in France for American machinery and manufac- tured goods of all sorte will be simply enormous.™ 5 Frénch Mini: Rome, Sept, 17, by way of Paris, 7.31 p. m.—Marquls Antonio & San Guli- ano, the minister of foreign affairs, who ds ill, was reported to be much better and without a temperature to- day.

The-| of - Foreign Affairs I | FOREIGN EXCHANGE DEVELOPED 'WEAKNESS Lowest Quotations Since the Out- break of the War. New York, Sept. 17.—Weakness of foreign exchange which fell to the lowest quotations since the outbreak of the war, was the most significant development In the general financial situation today. Cables on London declined to .96 1-1 and demand to 4.96, chiefly ‘as a result of foreign buying of the new New' York city notes, Grain bills were in better supply ang offerings of cotton bills on Ber- lin constituted a new feature of the exchange market, which embraced more activity in francs and pesetas. Gossip cente largely around the new city loafl and its attendant fea- tures. The most conservative opinion was that Europe would take at least twenty per cent. of _the issue. De- mand’ from private investors and. big corporations, such as the insurance companies, was said to be gratifyingly large, g The better sentiment extended to the curb, private sales of Standard Ofl issues being reported at prices on a parity with those of July 30. As a partial offset. however, it was stated that bond prices were lower, fear of foreign liquidation in these securities being the most serious aspect, Other adverse news was contained in the passing of the International Harvester commen dividend, similar action by the Crucible Steel company on its preferred stock, reduction of the American Express quarterly dis- | bursement and more curtailment of operations by several of the Michigan copper companies. AUSTRIAN TROOPS IN PRECARIOUS SITUATION Rushed Blindly Against the Servians and Fell.in Masses. Venice, Sept. 17, 1.15 p. m., by way of Paris, 5.10 p. m.—Reports received here from trustworthy sources indi- cate that the situation of the Austrian 'troops in Galicia is most precarious. ~-During the fighting along the Ser- vian. frontier the Croatian regiments suffered enormous. losses. Owing to their racial hatred of the Servians they were chosen to lead the first at- ‘tack and carried-away with their en- thusiasm, they. did not wait for -the support of their artillery but rushed blindly against the Servi running instead of crawling across the fleld. ‘As a consequence they fell in masses before the Servian fire. Around Lem- berg the Austrian infantry sustained also terrible losses because the artil- lery was caught .in the marshes, The artillerymen stood for several hours in water and arrived at the scene of the fighting too late to afford the nec- essary. support for the infantry, It also is asserted here that the Aus- trian artillery decimated three cf their —— ach or bowels; how much your head aches, how miserable and uncomfort- able you are from constipation, indi- gestion, biliousness and clogged-up bowels—you always get the desired results with Cascarets. = ‘They end the headache, biliousness, nervousness, dizziness, sick, sour, FEEL FINE!
