The prevalling - opinion Wag that the plan, possibly with some modifications, should be carried out again, and a committee wes appointed to report again in a week with a plan for another Merchants' week this year. Representatives of 15 business houses were present when John M. Lee called the meeting to order shortly after 4 o'clock, and Frank J. King was_elected chairman, with erbert B. Cary as secretary. In a brief way Mr. King sald that the gemeral opinion among the business men, he believed, was that the Merchants' week had been a satisfactory experience and he called upon Mr. Lee to speak upon the pur- pose of this meeting. Not only at the time of Merchants’ weel, but later, sald Mr. Lee, the town had experienced much benefit from the plan carried out last year, and it seem- ed to be the opinion of manythat the special week ought to be made an an- nual event. Each time would profit by the experience of the year gone before and the plan could be carried out from year to year with increasing success and satisfaction. C. M. Hutaler, W. T. McGarry and Abner Schwartz spoke in approval of another similar week, with Mr. Mc- Garry giving the opinfon that it would probably be possible to reduce ex- penses this time. Albert Boardman ‘was another who thought it was worth while to carry out the plan again. "FRIDAY, MARCH 25, R ANOTHER MERGHANTS 1915 WEEK A a R. F. Smith made the suggestion that a rebate ought to be given to all customers, whether local or out of town, and that it would be advisable to follow_that plan, H. B. Cary, C. Edward Sr'ith and George Greenberger were others to speak in general favor of another Mer- chants' week, and J. E. Marchessault gave it as his opinion that many cus- tomers objected to the necessity of go- ing to the central clearing house to get their rebate on purchases and he thought the plan ought to be made so that the rebate could be given right at the store, instead of through the clear- ing house. The crux of the whole matter, said ‘Mr. Lee, when he spoke again, was in the rebate, and wherever a Merchants’ week had been carried out this had always been done through a central clearing house. There were complica- tions that arose through the giving of rebates at the stores, and he had known of very few who had made any objections to the clearing house plan, which he argued would be shown to be the best for the merchants themselves when looked at from a financial stand- point. It was voted that it was the senti- ment of the meeting that another Mer- chants’ week should be had and Chair- man' King was directed by vote of the meeting to name a committee of five to take the matter into consideration and fo Teport a plan at a meeting to be held next Thursday afternoon at 4 o'clock at the Board of Trade rooms. The committee appointed was John M. Lee, C. M. Hutzler, Willlam T. Mc~ Garry, Daniel T. Shea and Samuel Kronig. All present were invited to assist the committee with suggestions. STORM CENTER IN THAMES SQUARE. Fight Microbes Were in the Air on Thursday Afternoon. Peter Boletski, u young man about 21 years old, wearing a red sweater, Wwus a storm center in Thames square on Thursday afternoon about 5 o'clqck, engaging in two fights and finally fall- ing Into the hands of Policeman Frank £." Henderson, who was on his way home after his day's work. At the same time the policeman had ‘on his hands another man who was intoxicat- ed and who clung fast to the railing of the West Slde bridge so that Boletski had a chance to break away while the policeman was trying to dislodge tho other man from his attachment to the bridge. The young fellow in the red sweater started off at a racing gait to escape through Falls avenue and up the tracks past the Central Vermont railroad sta- tion, but was chased and caught by Harry Crumb, who started off after him at the request of the policeman, who handed over his other prisoner to a bystander. Boletski was a good sprinter, but Crumb was a better one and he caught the fugitive above the Central Vermont freight station, where he held him for the arrival of the policeman, who was coming close behind on the run. While the throe men were walking down the railroad track Boletski sud- denly swung on Crumb and landed a heavy punch on Crumb's eye, but the fighter went down in a heap as Police: man Henderson retaliated with a right- hander on the young fellow’s mouth. Thereafter he was docile and was walked to the police station by the police officer and Crumb, where he was locked up on charges of breach of the peace, intoxication and resisting an of- ficer. ' Harry Levine also rendered as- sistance in the case, The other man who had been handed over to a citizen had reached the police station before this. He was too much muddled with drink to be able to, tell his name before he was locked up. Boletski_was bailed out during the evening. Before his arrest he had been in a fight with a colored man whom he punched in the back of the head while the colored man was not looking. The two had off their coats in a minute and Boletski went to the with a stiff punch to the head. The crowd which was gathered on the side- walk at the corner of Thames and West Main streets pulled the colored man off, but Boletski went back at him and more blows were exchanged before a big moulder who is foreman in a foundry got hold of the fighters and pushed them apart. About that time the colored man decided it was time to leave and he ran off down Thames street, leaving his coat in the hands of a friend. END OF HIS FINGER WAS BITTEN OFF m Schachter ‘Accuses Tutselofski After Fight, Bennle Tutselofski was arrested at his home on Cove street Thursday night about 10 o'clock by Sergeant A. C. Matthews and Policeman Tom Mur- phy, as he was wanted for breach of the ‘peace after a fight on Thursday afternoon with Willlam Schachter of No. 179 Franklin street. The fight happened on Falls avenue during the afternoon and it is claimed [ Tutselofski bit the end of Schachter's little finger off. It is understood the dispute was over the question of who was to pay Tutselofski for some work his _cousins, Hiss Alice-Manning, bou- quet from Mrs. Ophelia Roddy. N Mr. Riley was the son of the late Michael and Bridget Banning Riley, and died in New York-on Monday. Dennis F. Powers. The funeral of Dennis F. Powers was held at 1.30 o'clock Thursday af- ternoon from his late home on West Town street and at 2 o'clock at Sacred Heart church. Services were read by Rey. Thomas A. Grumbly.

His chances for recovery were considered fairly good. Mr. Schwarner is advanced in years but he had been feeling as well is us- ual. He went to the bathroom and when he did not emerge within a reasonable time, an investigation re- Yealed that he 'had been stricken in the tub.

" Frank J. King of Norwich, big man in the business promotion ~of that city, writes a letter to New London in commendation of an effort at road improvement between Groton and Norwich, by directing attention.

George L. Paine of St. Pa Church Preaches on The True Chril tian Life. The True Christian Life was the theme of the sernion delivered at Trin- ity Eptscopal church on Thursday eve- ning by Rev. George L. Paine, rector of St, Paul's church, New Haven. The service was the h of the united Lenten services being held by Trinity and Christ Episcopal churches and there was a good sized congrega- tion. The first lesson, taken from H Sam- uel, was read by Rev. Richard R. Gra- ham, rector of Christ church, and as the second lesson he read a part of the first chapter of St. Luke. Arch- deacon J. Eldred Brown, rector of Trinity church, offered prayer. The text taken by Rev. Mr. Paine was Galations 3: 2: “Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law or by the hearing of faith?’ “To the Hebrew, said Mr. Paine, the end of history was moral. The Greeks, Syrians, Romans and _Babylonians cared for other things, but the He- brew's great hope was that God would establish his kingdom on earth, The Hebrews felt there was to be some time, a kingdom over which God would rule. The Israelite had one conviction and that was that before God would send the Messiah it was necessary that the people recognize and live up to God's law. If you follow the history of the Hebrews you will recognize that their great leaders laid down the fundamental principle that the Israel- ites were a separate people and that they must confine themselves to the carrying out of the holy law. The Jew tried to keep the law and his whole life came to be ome of the most in- finite detail in order to expedite the coming of the kingdom through the keeping of the law. One of the most vigorous of these men who tried to keep the-law was Saul of Tarsus. Saul of Tarsus lived a miserable life be- cause he realized he failed day by day. It was impossible to keep all the laws. If he broke one, he knew how the law read. he was guilty of them all. When Paul realized that the Naz- arene was really the Christ, his the- ology was overthrown. He began life anew. God had not waited until the people kept the law: He sent His Son to save them. Some asked Paul “Is the law then sin?’ In answer Paul said, “The law is_essential in its way. It has taught us the difference between good ang evil. The law has been the schoolmaster to bring us to Christ.” That is the kind of gospel we want today. Many are satisfied with their lives if they live an honest life. We are satisfled to try to keep letter A and B and C of the law. The Chris- tian life is totally different from that. If Paul was dissatisfied with himself we, in the 20th century, ought to real- ize there is something different in the Christian life. In order to get a clear- er understanding of the Christian life we must study the epistles to the Ro- man. Until a man lives in the spirit of Jjesus Christ he is no Christian. Many do not go to church because they think that all that is necessary is to keep the law. The religious com- munity needs today a sense of the reality, the truth and the power of God. The united service next week, which is the final one of the series, will be held at Christ church and the preach- er will be Rev. Alvin P. Knell, rector of Trinity church, Brooklyn, Conn, INFECTED CATTLE KILLED.

Proposed Old Nor- Changing Town Many S8igners wich — Against Lines. Since the city meeting this week two new petitions’ against having any change made in the present lines of the town of Norwich have been in cir- culation and have boen receiving many signatures in the section which would be set off into the town of Old Nor- wich, according 1o the bill coming be- fore the legislature. Both petitions protest against any change in the present town lines.

Lord George Bentinck's record of political work, as set out by his blogra- pher, seems even more striking than that’ accomplished by Wellington in 1834, “It is very diMcult,” writes Dis- raeli “to convey a complete picture of the laborious life of Lord George Ben- tinck during the sitting of Parliament. At 9.30 began his elaborate and me- thodical correspondence, all of which portance is the warning to allow no one in stables or about cattle except government or state inspectors, as hu- man beings can very easily carry the germs of the disease. By a_strictly enforced quarantine, quick destruction of infected herds and observances of the rules laid down by the state cattle commissioner, it is hoped that the disease may be stamped out in a short time. Inas- much as the cause of the disease is unknown, and the germ has never been isolated, the work of the govrnment, state and local officials is made doubly difficult, even under the most favorable condltions, Kosher Meat. The foot and mouth quarantine which forbids the driving of any cat- tle along the highways will make it impossible now for the Hebrew butch- ers who supply the trade in “Kosher” meat to drive any cattle to the city for slaughtering, as is their custom. Dr. Ingram sald Thursday evening that the animals for ‘“kosher”: meat would have to be slaughtered on the farms and the meat brought in dress- ed. It is estimated by butchers in the business that the “kosher” trade in Norwich rquires the slaughtering of about 20 to 25 head of cattle per ‘week. Incidents in Society Mrs. Channing M. Huntington has returned from Atlantic City. After several months' stay in Eng- land, Mrs. Harry Harland reached Sentry Hill, the Harland home at Norwich Town, this week.
