Bakery Produtts Invading Connecticut It is said there is an unusually largg number of journeymen bakers out »f work at the present time throughout the state. Various rea- sons are assigned. One is that com- petition with bakeries outside the state has grown to such proportions that it seriously interferes with the business of bread-making in Connec- ticut. It is said a concern in Rhode Islang sends enormous quantities of bread and pastry into Connecticut. An- other reason is that the consumption of pastry and other delicacies has fall- en off considerably in this state during the past few months. It is also said housekeepers make more bread than they formerly did, owing to the ne- cessity of being economical in house- hold expenses, There are nearly 500 bakeries in the state, State Bonds Legal Obligations.

For the first three days of this week the headliner on the programme at the Auditorium is an unusually attractive musical act which is presented by a quintette who appear on the bill as the Five Violin Beauties.

The next in line was Paul Perry, a skilful heavyweight _ juggler, who pleased his audiences Monday evening with a number of difficult feats in the jusgling line. Perry was unable to appear at the afternoon performance on Monday owing to the non-arrival of his baggage, which was delayed in transit between Putnam and Norwich.

SECURING NAMES ON PETITION For Setting Off Town From City of Norwich—New Town Proposed Would Take in Fourth and Fifth Voting Dis- tricts—No Bill to Come Before Legislature for Consol- idation of City and Town. A petition, which it is said is se- curing a number of signatures in the parts of the town affected is in active circulation at the present time to be presented before the legislature in favor of the proposed bill separating the city and town of Norwich. What would be made the town of Norwich, according to this bill, would be prac- tically the fourth and L.fth voting dis- tricts, which cover Norwich Town and Taftville respectively. Territorially this would be the larger part of the present town of Norwich. Those interested in ' the proposed saparation have figured out that a town constituted with the limits sug- gested would have a tax rate of 9 mills. The southern limit of the proposed town would be the present northern line of the city, starting on Lafayette street at the corner of Williams street and running thence easterly across Oneco street to”a point on Washing- ton street between Beech drive and the Waihing(on street entrance to Mohegan' park. From Washington street the dividing line runs northeast. S —— erly and easterly through Mohegan park at a distance of about a mile and a quarter from the center of the city. As the line continues it passes through Potter Manor in an easterly diregtion at the corner of Howard avenue 'and Russell road, then through the south- erly part of St. Joseph's cemetery, crossinz Boswell avenue diagonally above the Miantonomo monument till it reaches the Shetucket river. It was stated when the proposed separation bill was first mentioned that this measure was brought up as a counteracting influence to the bill for the consolidation of city and town which annually made its appearance in the legislature and which was to appear again. But this year the consolidation bill seems to have gone by the board, as there is none now before any legis- lative committee, according to _the statement of the representatives from this town, and there can be no such bill come up now. The only other bill affecting Nor- wich now before the legislature re- lates to authority for a bond issue. PROGRAMMES FOR INSTITUTES FOR FARMERS. Four Arranged For This Vicinity This Week.

TWO SUITS AGAINST TOWN OF NORWICH. Tried in Common Pleas Court—Form- er Assessors Are Plaintiffs. The suits of Lewis R. Church and Alexander E. Reeves, two former as- sessors of the town of Norwich, were on trial together in the common pleas court here on Monday before Judge C. B. Waller. They are suing the town for a claim for pay for extra work they did while assessors about four vears ago. They make the claim that they work- ed at the request of the selectmen and did extra work in revising the list, putting in 57 extra days from 10 a. m. to 4 p. m. for which they claimed com- pensation of $800. The late Aron W. Dickey was the other assessor at that time. The two plaintiffs were witnesses, and_other witnesses were Selectman A, W. Lillibridge and W. B. Wilcox, and M. J. Curran who is now an as- sessor. Mr. Curran testified that he believed the work could be done in 30 days. Arguments in the case were made by Attorneys Fanning, Shields and Com- stock. The court took the papers. The following assignments were made at a short calendar session of PAPER BEFORE NORWICH ART STUDENTS’ ASSOCIATION Read by Miss Hannah Crowell Greek Archaeology. Upon The Norwich Art Students’ associa- tion held its regular monthly meeting Monday evening at the Slater Memo- rial. Miss Nancy Lucas, the presi- dent, conducted the business meeting. at which it was announced that at the April meeting a vote would be taken on some proposed changes in the constitution. It was voted to cel- ebrate the 20th anniversary of the as- sociation by giving a luncheon during the month of May. The paper for the meeting was by Miss Hannah Crowell upon the sub- ject of Greek Archaeology. Miss Crowell made her paper most interesting and insructive. She de- fined Green Aachaeology as that branch of knowledge which takes cognizance of past civilizations and invesitgates their history in all fields by means of the remains of art, architecture, monuments, customs, in- scriptions, literature and implements. ‘The most ancient monuments left on the soil of Greece date from the time when Greece had as yet no his- tor Although Greece owed its earl; ideas of art to the more ancient civ- ilizations, she completely overpowered external influences by the strength and vigor of her own _ development. For the most part Greek Archaeology is a product of the 19th century, al- though the modern treatment of an- cient art may be distinguished in three periods. 1 The artistic from 1450 to 1600. This was the period of the Renaisance. En- thusiasm spread for collection, ancient sulptures, loins and gems, not so much as historical monuments but en- josment was the object. At this time the beginning of the great Italian mu- seums were made. 2 The Antiguarian from 1600 to 1750. Antiquarianism deals with relics of the past rather as objects of mere curiosity, or interesting because of their antiquity. That period also at- tendedto the making of collections known. Rome was the central point of these studies. The Earl of Arundel in the reign of James I was the first Englishman to collect antiques from Italy. and Asia Minor. They are now in the Ashmolean museum in Oxford. Systematic travel for this discovery of buildings and works of art was be- gun by Spon and Wheeler (1675-1676), but the discovery of Pompeii in 1748 opened a new chapter in the history of arcient art. The first excavations were made in 1748 and were carried on for years with very limited success. By the excavations we are afforded a very realistic picture of life in a small provincial city of Italy during the first century after Christ. Many Years must elapse before the entire ¢ily can be laid bare. The city of Herculanennic now lies at a depth of 30 tc 120 feet below the surface. The art relics found here far exceed in \'s:;)e and interest those found in Pom- peii. The excavation of buried cities skirting Vesuvius and the unexpected great discovery of Etruscan Tombs ushered in a new era in archaelogical research dating from 1750. Winckelmann was the first to in- troduce the historical method into the treatment of an ancient art and to show how it embodied the ideas of the great people of the ancient world. He was succeeded by Lessing and Sir William Hamilton but it was Thomas Bruce, Lord Elgin, who first made Greek art really known in the court in the afternoon: March 20: At New London, W. A. Buddington vs. James W. Budding- ton. March 27: Norwich, Joseph Stone vs, Edwin Edwards and_wife. March 29: Norwich, Henry koy vs. Kike Olinyk. April Norwich, Daniel Kudlik vs. Harriet E. Stapleton. Answers were ordered in two weeks in the cases of Raymond Chartier vs. Ralph U. Urban and J. Frank Rogers and others vs the town of Salem. Franklin Chapter Made Visitation. About 50 members of Franklin chap- ter, No. 4, R. A. M., of this city paid a fraternal visit to Union chapter, No. 7, of New London on Monday evening, going down from Norwich on a special car at 5.15 o'clock. In all there were dbout 200 present at the gathering. Tlhree candidates were initiated. Grand Scribe Edwin W. Avery of South Windham made an official visit and affer the business of the meeting refreshments were served by the la- dies of the New London chapter of the Eastern Star. Bowled Against New Haven Elks. A. W. Tilly and James L. Crawford of this city bowled with the New Lon- don Elks against the Algonquin club of New Haven, at New London on Mcnday evening. The New London team was defeated by the score of 2725 to 2507. Elmore F. Newman, well known in both New London and Nor- wick, bowled with the New Haven club. Jvas- Stole an Umbrella, Not Money. Michael Renorck, who was arrested in Chappell’s lumber yvard Saturday night by Supernumerary John Dono- van, was found guilty of stealing an umbrella when he was presented in the Willimantic police court on Monday, but the theft of money with which he was - charged could not be proved against him. The man’'s arrest was made here when a Polander who knew him told the officer he was in the lumber yard. New London Chamber of Commerca. E. D, Steele was elected president of the New London Chamber of Com- merce at the annual meeting of the chamber held on Monday evening. Mr. Steele replaces Theodore Bodenwein who held the presidency the past year, modern times. Through him hundreds of cases filled with sculptures and casts which he was allowed to make were shipped to England. Bigin was denounced by many. Doubt- less in the removal of some of the marbles Elgin's workmen ‘wrought considerable damage to those that re- mained in the Parthenon after the ex- plosion of 1687 but a large portion of the sculptures were not in place and those that had fallen were a mark for destruction by the Turkish garri- son. Their present condition shows what would have been the fate of oth- ers had they been left behind. A considerable mass were burned to furnish 1hme for mortar. ‘While the Elgin marbles were await- ing their final disposition two other important series of Greek sculptures were added to the European museums. ‘These were obtained by the excava- ticns of the two sites Bassae, from which we have the Phigalian mar- bles, and Aegina, from which were taken the ruins of the temple of Aphaiae. ‘The sculptured frieze of the temple of Apollo was taken in 1814 to the British museum. After mentioning in detail the va- rious additions to our knowledge of Greek archaeology that have been made by the discoveries and explora- ticne carried .on, Miss Crowell pointed out how the great undertakings of the last few decades have been aided by pelitical events, but the increase in wealth and the greater ease and rapi- dity of travel, and by changes and progress in the organization of arch- aeological work. By the aid of pho- tography the archaelogist of today commands a more accurate acquaint- ance with the entire fleld than was atteinable without its aid when the entire fleld was vastly less extensive than it is now. Yet there is still im- portant work to be done in spite of the vast and rapid progress of the last two centuries, After the reading of the paper some real terra cottas were shown which were purchased in Greece by Harry Kent curator of the Slater Memorial. They were bought for the museum at the request of Dr. R. P. Keap, who was then principal of the Norwich Free academy./ A quantity of hay has been unload- ed of late back of the city barn, and great flocks of English sparrows have gathered to feast on the hayseed, The act of Lord|" NINETEEN WERE FINED AS RESULT OF RAID Bills Amounted to $19678—$50 and Costs for Keepers—$5 and Costs for Frequenters, Those arrested early Sunday morn- ing in the raid in the gambling place which Louis Manchester and Sigmund Stegal were accused of keeping in the Cooke building at No. 8 Broadway were arraigned in the police court Monday morning before Judge T. J. Kelly. The courtroom was filled with spectators interested in the case. In the cases of Manchester and Sle- gal, accused as keepers of the place demurrers were entered through At- torney Shields but were overruled and fines of $30 and costs were imposed In each case. The costs were divided and the bill amounted to $51.04 for one man and $51.05 for the other. Siegal pald, but Manchester was not able to do so. He provided a bond for_payment by April Ist. Seventeen of those who had been | booked on_the register after the raid accused of frequenting a gambling place, were fined $5 and costs each. The bill for each amounted to § the costs belng divided. All paid. Oné man_ who was arrested at his house on the West Side after the rald, was not presented in court. The entire bill for the keepers and frequenters amounted to $186.75 Nothing was done on Monday the court regarding the liquor wh was found in the gambling rooms. Many of the men who had been ar- rested made earnest efforts on Sun- day to prevent their names appear- ing in print. One alleged that he had only gone into the place to take a codt to & man who he knew was there. Another was_after a_key and others thought of their mothers, wives, sis- ters or sweethearts who would be scandalized by the appearance of the names. Still others thought of the jobs which they were holding or pros- Dective jobs which they expected to hold. Two local men and one man from Danielson were before the court on intoxication charges and all were giv- en fines with cos Two Norwich girls, one 14 and the 15, who had_been arrested by eman Myron Morgan for sleep- ing in a wagon, were put on proba- tion until April 1st, Wife Grateful and Congratulatory.

It tones up and in- vigorates the roots of the hair and furnishes the necessary elements tc make it grow long, soft, abundant and full of life. One application of this scientific tonic removes every trace of dandrufl and cleanses the hair of dust and ex- cess oil. Why not start now to beautify your hair by using Parisian Sage, the greaf tonic treatment? It is inexpensive and easily applied at home. It can be had from Lee & Osgood Co., or any drus counter, and will surely work a mira- cle even if the hair is dandruffy, oily, faded, streaked, dull and lifeless, UNITED § TES postoffice, Norwich Conn. _Office of custodian, March 8 1915.
