Decision_Given by Judge Shumway— Bailey Lien Dissolved. In the matter of petitions presented in the receiver: the Fenton Building company, . A. Shum- way has handed down a decision deny- ing the petition of the Bradley & Hub- bard Manufacturing company, the Ber- lin Construction company, Moriarty & Rafferty of Windham and Hillnouse & Taylor of Windham, in which he fizds that all creditors should share alike and denies the petition of these four to ‘have their claims preferred over the other creditors. In his finding he says that he finds and holds that all the creditors of the Fenton Building company stand upon the same ground. If, as claimed by the petitioners, the contracts made with the town of Windham and the state of Connecticut give any creditor any lien upon the money withheld un- der the terms of the contract, it fol- lows that all creditors should share alike. The prayer of these four peti- tioners is denied and the amount due from the state of Connecticut should be paid to the receiver, and it is so or- dered. In the matter of the application of the receiver for the dissolution of the mechanic’s lien of Casper K. Bailey, the application is granted. The lien was not perfected within the time re- quired by the statyte. It is ordered that the lien be dissolved. These matters were argued in court for Receiver John A. Moran by Attor- ney C. V. James, and each of the peti- tioners were represented by attorneys. 8t. Patrick’s Day Masses. St. Patrick’s day at St Patrick’s church, mass at 7 o'clock’ was read by Rev. Myles P.

Maynard is in a serious condition from inhaling smoke at the fire last week, which destroyed the Maynard house. WHAT CATARRH IS It is said that every third person i troubled with catarrh in some form: Science has shown that nasal catarrk indicates a weakened condition of the body; that the secretions of the mu cous membranes are quickly affected. and local treatments in the form of snuffs and vapors, do little if any good. To correct catarrh you should treat its cause by enriching your blood anc¢ improving your general condition with the oil-food in Scott’s Emulsion whick isa medicinal-food and a building-tonic. free from alcohol or harmful drugs. Scott’s Emulsion is not a patent medicine but a concentrated medicinal food, prescribed by the best phy sicians for forty years. 14673 Scott & Bawne, Bloomfield, N. J.

M. Shay Fertilizer Co.—Judge Finds No Negligence Proven on Part of the Defendant. In the superior court at New Lon- don on Friday afternoon, Judge Will- jam L. Bennett directed the jury to return a verdict for the defendant, the C. M. Shay Fertilizer Co., of Groton, in the suit for $10,000 damages that Frank E. Hadley of Groton had brought against the company. In the complaint Hadley alleged that he received a fracture of the ribs and other injuries which had per- manently disabled him as the result of. being rolled between a freight car and a freight shed located on the de- fendant's property at the Navy Yard, while he was discharging his duties as brakeman for the New Haven road. Trial of the case was started Tuesday morning. Argued Motion to Direct Verdict. The case was resumed Wednesday morning and shortly after 12 o'clock both sides had completed their cases except for the arsument: At the conclusion of the testimony Attorney Avery made a motion that the court direct the verdict for the defendant and the motion was argued by Attor- neys Avery and Tracy Waller for the defendant company and _ Attorney Morgan for the plaintiff. When the arguments were completed Judge Bennett took the matter under consid- eration until the afternoon session. When court resumed at 2 o'clock Judge Bennett directed the jury to return a verdict for the defendant, stating that it was not only necessary for the plaintiff to show due care but also to show negligence on the part of the defendant. The plaintiff had proved care on their part but had not proved negligence on the part of the defendant for which reason he granted the motion. The jury then retired and after an absence of about five minutes it an- nounced its verdict through Foreman Clifforq E. Chapman. Testimony Wednesday Morning. When court came in Wednesday morning George K. Crandall, civil en- gineer, explained a map of the lay- out of the Shay plant, the siding, the freight shed and platform and other details. He was followed by Dr. Edmund P. Douglass of Groton, who testified that on Dec. 10, of last year he had made a physical examination of Hadley at the request of attorneys for the Shay Fertilizer Co. The examination was held in the office of Dr. F. W. Hewes, Hadley's physician, in Groton. Dr. Douglass examined all parts of the body which the plaintiff claimed had been injured in the accident, had ex- amined the chest and made a thor- ough examination as to his general condition at that time. The examin- ation revealed a well developed chest, a small scar on the left side which had entirely healed, with no adhe- sions, the whole chest was normal, the breathing was normal, there was no evidence of a fracture of any of the ribs, none of which showed any bony protuberances or prominences that would undoubtedly have been re- vealed had there been a fracture. He had_requested to be alowed to take an X-Ray picture of the ribs to make this examination, but Hadley had re- fused to submit to being X-rayed. Medical Examinations, Hadley had complained at the time of having suffered injuries to his eve- sight by the accident, but the witness made no examination of the eye- sight as he did not pretend to be an oculist. He caused three appoint- ments to be made between an oculist and Hadlev and the latter had kept none of them. The witness was told of injuries to the arm and leg but they were reported to have healed so that there was mno occasion for an examination of those members. The examination failed to reveal any”dis- ease of the kidneys or bladder as com- plained of; the pulse was 76 and beat with_normal regularity and pressure. Df, Douglass stated that Hadley ex- hibited symptems of hypersensibility, but these were not due to any other cause than a condition of nervous- ness brought about by the examina- tion. The physician was unable to detect any inflamation of the pleu- ra of the lungs or inside chest walls or_any pleuratic condition. Under cross examination by Attor- ney Morgan for the plaintiff, Dr. Douglass_insisted that in his opinion there had been no fracture of the rib which was alleged to have been frac- tured or any other rib, which would undoubtedly have been revealed under the examination. He testified that Hadley's chest expansion was not ab- normal to any great extent ,although there was a slight deficiency of per- haps half inch due to lack of ex- ercise of the chest. A report of Dr. Douglass submit- ted to Attorney Avery for the defense which was read to the jury, stated that Hadley was a robust healthy man at the time of the examination and contained the same information to which the -witness testified. Frank E. Hutchins superintend- ent for the defendant company, gave a general description of the freight shed, platform, plant, etc, of the Shay company, testifiying that he had supervised the construction of the present platform and shed in Febru- ary, 1918, For 85000 For Loss of Wife's Love. When the Hadley vs, Shay case had been disposed of the trial of the suit brought by Lucien M. Sheffield of Old Saybrook against Alva G. Beckwith of the same place for $5,000 damages on the clalm that Beckwith alienated the affections of Sheffield's wife, Cora, was T started. Sheffield alleges that he was mar- hied to Mrs. Sheffield Dec. 19, 1904, and up to about three or four years ago they lived happily. Then Beck- with entered their lives and by his acts and blandishments he seduced Mrs, Sheffield, causing him to lose the love and affections ,of his wife and causing kim great pain of body and distress of mind. He also charges adultery between the defendant and his wife at various times since Jan. 1, 1912, The dJefense make a general denial of the allegations. Wife’s Brother Told. _The witness had known Beckwith £or about 10 years, he having mar- ried a niece of his wife. Beckwith’s wife died in November, 1912. He first learned of the improper rela- tions between Beckwith and his wife in January, 1918, the knowledge com- ys-pep-lets contain the digestive prin- ciple of the gastric juice.

R he Dys-pep-lets sipsinte ing through his wife's brother, nest Hull. MHe confronted his wife with her infidelity and she denied it. He told her then and a short time afterwards that if she would give up Beckwith, he would forgive her and they could continue to live together happily, but she refused. Sheffield testified that he had dis- covered Leckwith at his home in March previous to his wife leaving him. The witness had started for his work but he went to lodge instead. Returning home about 12 o’clock he was unable to get an answer to his knocks and entering the house he found Beckwith lying on the couch. He was told that Beckwith had been summoned to take care of an old per- son in the house. The names of 21 jurors were called from which a jury to try the case was_selected, after Attorney Clayton B. Smith, counsel for the plaintiff, had cautioned them to make known if any of them were connected or re- lated to any of the parties involved or were acquainted with and corcum- stances of the case which would af- fect their views and prevent their trying the case impartially. Testimeny of Plaintiff, The plaintiff was the first witness and he testified that he w a_fore- man car inspector of the New Haven road. He said that he was married to his wife on Dec. 18, 1904, and that he had lived with her until April 14, 1913. For three or four years previous to his separation with his wife he had been employed at Midway nights, leaving home at 4.30 in the afternoon and returning about 8 o'clock in the morning. He and his wife had always lived together hap- pily. The witness recognized a letter shown him by his attorney as a let- ter writter to his wife by Beckwith. He found the letter in a_drawer of his secretary which his wife used for her private use in September of the year she left him. The letter was put in for identification, Took Part of Furniture. On the day she left him Mrs. Shef- field took part of the furniture. She went to Branford to live with a sister for a short time and later returned to live with tha defendant, with whom she bas been living for about a year and a half. HEAVY LOAD BREAKS BRIDGE IN WATERFORD. Autotruck With Load of Raised Havoec With Planking. The bridge at the head of the Jor- dar river, mn the town of Waterford, known as Straits bridge, was broken Tuesday so that trafiic had to be stop ped until repairs can be made. A large automobile truck owned by C. Brockett of Norwich went across the bridge with a heavy load of timbers and the sleepers on the Waterford side of the bridge were broken so that it was_deemed impossible for traffic to continue. This is not the first time that this bridge has broken and traffic stcpped. The constant travel of auto- mobiles over the bridge always did raise havoc with the planking, causing it to be rebuilt several times in the past few years. It is the opinion of many about the towns of Waterford and East Lyme that a new and _substantial bridge should be built. It is understood that the automobile association of the state and the Waterford automobile owners prcpose a new bridge of steel and con- crete. bers HATS AND GARMENTS. Designs Favored by Fashion—Pretty Things for Children—War Note in Millinery — Two Distinctively New Models in Suit This season the designers appear to have surpassed all previous efforts in the beauty and taste of the hats pro- vided for children. The shapes are quaint and certain to be becoming, the trimming is emi- nently suitable, and, all told, the little folk are well provided for. A charming small hat seen yester- day was a mushroom in old rose Dres- der: crepe, with dainty flowers and cun- ning streamers. A'white helmet was tailored as care- fully as if for a grown-up, had a band of white grosgrain ribbon and for fin- ish fancy buttons and a chic bow. Belgian blue was the hue of a quaint hat which had cordings and flowers in the same tint. Near by, another in Alice blue and white was of braid and satin, its trimming a dear little wreath of forget-me-nots. Sand braid was utilized in forming a poke shape with light blue facings, pipings and bow of velvet, which would look charming on any sweet lit- tle wearer. The buying of handsome “pattern hats by the children’s elders continued throughout Wednesday. One smart model offered was a transparent black maline, with maline crown. A jet band and Jjet cupid wings on the edge of the brim made this one of the most strikingly elegant hats designed this_season. Effective was a Belgian cap of spun glass braid, the top of white and the brim black. An ostrich fancy in white was directly at the front. The war note was emphasized in one model shown, a battleship turban in cerise, which 'had small red wings rep- resenting guns on its brim of black rajd. This smart little hat was greatly admired. In marked contrast was a‘large white sailor of French crepe, its drooping brim edged with white satin. It had a beautiful wreath of emall moss rose- buds and was finished with a large rose at the front. Attracting especial attention was a sand and Gobelin blue mode] of sand- colored braid; this had Gobelin blue facing, and for trimming small flower knots in purple, sand and Gobelin, a dashing finish being a_skeleton bow combining the three colors. Tor dressy occaslons there was dis- played a sailor shape in flesh pink satin, with navy satin facing, navy ribbon and pearl buckles on top of the crown, and rose bouquets at front and back. A handsome hat which won instant attention was a white Milan with Georgette crepe facing. It was trimmed with white aigrets and white velvet daisies. Raspberry was the tint of a rolling sailor with crown of ottoman silk and brim of satin braid. For trimming it had pink and blue dahlias about the crown. The new liseret braid was developed in a tailored hat, a charming model for early spring. The tint was plum ard the trimming fancy wings in shad- gd plum and a tied bow of plum rib- on. Another natty offering was a boat- shaped, turban in_ bronze hemp, with moire self-tone facing. Two black Mercury wings with two smart Jjet spear pins formed the trimming. Elegance in Spring Garments. Locking about at the newest in coats suits, dresses, evening frocks and modish wraps, one ct that this season the designers have accomplished a number of dis- tinctively new effects. Also they have put upon the market some essentialiy new models, especially in suits. Preeminent is the new golf suit, smart, serviceable, practical and cer- tain to win immediate favor. Another novelty is the Tuxedo suit, choice in material, smartly tailored, quite as smartly vested, having all the essentials of correct garmenting. The golf suit comes in all the want- ed shades—rose, Copen, Oxford, fern, cardinal, ' Tipperary, emerald, Fite, coral, Madrid, sand, reseda and dreadnought gray. 'The material is Alpine cloth, a knitted fabric of purest wool yarn, well shrunk and shrink- Pproof. Three favorite tints are heather green, heather blue and heather brown. This bids fair to be the pop- ular suit of the season. The favBred ctats for spring are of pronounced flare and are belted to pro- duce the high waist effect. Scores of buttons are used and fancy collars are popular. But inspect these handsome hats and garments for yourself! Where they are to be found, all at. tractively priced, is told today by The Bulletin advertisers! Hearing Was Postponed. Harland D, Bryden, charged with falsifying accounts of the Adams Ex- press company at New London, and arrested on a warrant on March 12, when presented in police court there Wednesday, was held in $1,000 bonds for hearing on March 26.

Richard Morrissey to Deliver Lenten Sermon —Personal Interests. About the homestead on Sentry Hill in which Gen. Edward Harland passed his long life are historical associations as well as pleasant memories. The “tall ancestral trees” standing in front of the house were set out Sept. 6, 1781, the day the British burned New Lon don, by one of Thomas Harland's ap- prentices, Nathaniel Shipman. This Thomas Harland came from England to Boston in 1773 in one of the ships that brought over the tea to steep in the waters of Boston harbor. He came to Norwich at once and successfully established himself in his trade, which was that of clock and watchmaker, as well as jeweler.
