Chairman _ Manwaring _introduced Lieutenant Governor Tingier as the next governor, which brought out more applause. i ¥ In responding, Mr. Tingier, Who is the democratic candidate for gover- ner, spoke pleasantly of his feeling towards New London county and this congressional district, which he had had a considerable part in framing when he was in the legislature.

He hoped, too, that the delegates were satisfied with the state administration, which so far as the senate was con- rned had done almost cverything at the platform had promised.

Made the Nomination. After the applause had subsided Jo- seph T. Fanning made the nomination of Mr. Mahan in a ringing speech that ‘requently was applauded. He pointed out the differe s in the call to publio ser here and abroad at the present day, in one case calling to avenues of peace and Prosperity.and in the other to sorrow ind distress. The nation calls her sons to her service and in’the state zonvention for United States senator the 600 men gathered decided upon a nominee who has a state and national reputation. But there was another favorite son oresent, continued Mr. Fanning. who showed a political strength that he considered marvelous. It is now your duty to stand by your candidate in zongress who, as he has never shirked public duty, will consent to be con- scripted into service, and I know our nominee will be Bryan F. Mahan. In season and out of seasom, Mr. Mahan has done as much for the state as any man has ever dome, and we should send out an officfal cail for him to be our standard bearer. The republican ticket is laden down with democratic ‘deserters, but I will bardly call them expelled democrat:.

Many will say “How I wish I could but I have tried and every time it nearly kills me.” The real trouble is that people who suffer the untold agony of indigestion, do_not properly care for the stemach. Every stomach has a lot of work to perform in the food and if crowded with extra labor it rebels and kicks up a fearful disturbance. Mil-o-na, a simple, harmless, inex- pensive most _effective prescrip- Hon, easily ned at any drug store, quickly stop this disturbance. Mi-o-na was espeeially prepared to regulate out-of-order sto: It not only helps the over- ed digestive organs by increasing the flow of tric juices, but surely and safely ‘builds and strengthens the stom- ach walls so that the stomach can care for the food as nature intended. It's needless for you to suffer with indigestion, heartburn, bilious- Dess, sour, gassy or upset stomach, for Mi-o-na should give prompt and last- ing relief. Do not delay but get some of these health-restoring tablots from Lee & Osgood today. If Mi-o-na does not banish all stomach distress, there will not be a penny of expense.

MUNIGIPAL SUPPORT GF PLAY AND RECREATION Statistics Secured by Those Interest. ed in Plan for Norwich, One of the special petitions to come before the annual town meeting will De a petition which is| supported by the Norwich Flaygrounds association for an appropriation of $3,000. for the playgrounds work and for physical training in the pubMc schools. It will be proposed that the playgrounds work be assumed by the town hereafter and that it be in charge of the town school committee. n connection with this proposal, those interested in the petition have been ascertaining what other cities are doing in the way of municipal sup- port of play and recreation. In 1913, according to reports sent to the Playground and Recreation As- soclation of America, 57 New England towns and cities of ‘over 5,000 inhab- itants supported plavgrounds at pub- lic expense. Thirty-eight of those re- porting were in Massachusetts and 10 in IConnecticut. Thesa last were Bridgeport, Hartford, Naugatuck, New. Britain, New Haven, New London, Stamford and . Water- bury. Of thé 57 in New England, 26 have a population smaller than that of Norwich. The list includes prac- tically all the larger cities of Massa- chusetts. & The cities glven below of about the size of Norwich (above 15,000 and un- der 30,000), spent at least 31,500 for playgrounds. public appropriation less than $3,000 when the appropriation for physical culture is added, as proposed in Nor- wich.

By having a year-round director of recreation operating play and recrea- tion centers and instituting physical culture in the schools, Norwich can have a most efficient department ex- tending the benefits of health and good play conditions to every part of the town during all seasons of the year.

Shortly after the noon hour, Cher- jcal No.'1 went to Laurel Hill near |, Center street and laid about 400 feot of hose to reach the brush fire. They Were busy there about two hours. At 4.45 p. m, the autochemical and Chemical No, 2 from the West Side station reported to a call for a fire In the rear of No. 6§ High street, where chicken coops were on fire. The property was in the rear of a house owned by a man named Hilderbrand, formerly known as the Ayer mansion. ‘About 6.30 o'clock there was a call for a_chimney fire at the home of C. S. Johnson, corner of Washington and Williams streets. Shavings put in a fireplace to_start the fire along had set the soot in the chimney on fire. The chemical company from the Falls station and the .autochemical looked after this, A little after 8 o'clock when the auto- chemical was on the way to the Hinckley hill brush fire again, a tel- ephone call was sent in that smoke Was coming from the boiler room at the Hopkins & Allen Arms Co. on Franklin street. The chemicai company from _tho Main street station responded and an alarm from box 225 at Franklin and Willow streets was rung in by Po- liceman Daniel O'Nell, who saw the smoke. The smoke was caused by the char- ring of a lot of light wood that had Deen left on tap of the boilers to dry out. The wood is what is used in the shipping room. The firemen got into the boiler room and threw the wood to the floor. “hen the autochemical returned to the central station, after this, it start- ed out once more for the Hinckley hill brush fire, returning about 11.15.
