J. Becker and Dr. F. A. Ingram, deputy state cattle commissioner, with their staff of as- sistants, went to the farm of Samuel Clark in Preston on Sunday, where, after appraising the 31 cattle belong- ing to Mr. Clark, they Kkilled and burieq the animals among which it had been found the foot and mouth disease had developed. The herd,_had been in quarantine for the past two or three days under suspicion that the disease might be among them. The officers left here at 9.30 Sunday morning and were back at 230 in the afternoon after completing their work, It requires from 8 hours to 25 days for the disease to develop and on Fri- day it was found that an ox and a cow had developed the disease so that all the exposed animals were ordered killed. The Clark herd consisted of. 27 cows two oxen and two yearlings. Accord- ing to the usual method when cattle are to be killed, a trench about 8 feet deep and 6 feet wide was dug and the cattle were led into it and shot. Then the bodies are slashed open, lime thrown over them and covered with six feet of earth. While doing the work the men wear rubber hats, coats, gloves and boots, When cattle are condemned and slaughtered the state and federel of- ficers disinfect the premises, barns, shed and yards with formaldehyde gas and fumigate thoroughly. This expense is.met by the government and the state, oach paying half. The federal and state authoritles and the owner of the nattle killed make the appraisal in case there is a slaughter and they all three sign an agreement that the owner is satisfied with the appraisal. Dairy cattle are appraised at their dairy walue, but eheep, goats and other animais at ther meat value. Inspecting Dai Meanwhile the inspection of the dairies in the fifteen towns under quarantine is going on as fast as pos- sible anq the officers have all the men they are able to handle at work. As soon as the first round of inspection has been made it will be followed by a re-inspection. The inspectors of cattle take every precaution to prevent the carrying of the disease from one herd to another. They dress in a rubber hat, coat, gloves and boots and after making an inspection of a herd wash in a so- Suspicion—31 Had to be of Dairies is Going on. lutfon of 1 to 500 wash of mercury bichloride. If there is no trouble in a man’s herd the inspectors continue on their trip to the next house. Pro- vided there is any suspicion the cattle are quarantined and the man is for- bidden to distribute his milk. Mr. Clark is a cattle dealer and had Dbeen shipping his milk to a_ Provi- dence concern. On the day that the quarantine went into. effect he had a herd of nine cows on the way to New London, where they were to be slaugh- tered. They were held up in a pasture in Montville until they could be in- spected. They were given a clean bill of health and were later slaughtered for the market after they had been taken to_their destination in wagons, The Clark herd which was killed Sunday malkes the third which had been found affecteq with the disease and slaughtered for that reason, The first was Ernest Fargo's 8 head and two swine in Fitchville, and the sec- ond John H. Wilson's 2§ head in Pres- ton. Whether there is any connection be- tween the three herds affected has not yet been conclusively determined, Dr. Becker salq on Sunday, but that will be one of the things to be determined before the investigation is over. The officers will also attempt to discover the first source of infection, but just at the present time, the force of men is so busy inspecting for the purpose of checking the spread of the disease that these other matters have to be put aside temporarily, Symptoms of the Disease. Some of the symptoms of the dis- ease, inspectors say, are pustules in the mouths of the cattle or on the feet. These pustules have a form of matter and scab over. After the scabs are raised they leave an indentation on the foot. The animal has a_thick discharge from the mouth, thicker than is usual with cattle and the ani- mal refuses to eat, which naturally results in a lessening of the flow of milk. If the pustules appear on the feet the animal will go lame on first one foot and then the others as the disease spreads, There will be noticed a fever in the animal affected. The mortality from the disease has been greatly lessened within the past few years. Unless the disease is unusually ma- lignant the mortality is not. usually more than 5 per cent. CHARGED WITH ASSAULT WITH INTENT TO KILL Daisy Phillips, Formerly of Montville, Cut Her Husband with Razor. Daisy T. Phillips, formerly of Mont- ville, but recently residing on Main street, just above Richards, in New London, is in jail in New London, to appear ' before the court there on Thursday to answer a charge of as- sault with intent to kill her husband with a razor last Thursday night. Willlam E. Phillips, the husband, is in Memorial hospital, at New London, with a slashed head and face, cut with a razor which Mrs. Phillips told the police she used to ~defend _herself. Phillips never admitted that his wife slashed him, but claimed that he fell from the trestle that crosses Win- throp's cove. The facts regarding the case as learned from Mrs. Phillips are that Phillips went home with a good supply of liquor and that he was accom- panieq by “Blg Nick” a Pole, who works ang lives at Montville. Phillips had a bottle of whiskey and the pair wanted Mrs, Phillips to imbibe of it. This she declined to do. She wanted Bill to give her a dollar for she was going to the store to make Some pur- chases. He would not give the money to Daisy and before the matter was settled Mrs. Phillips was in her room dressing for the street. She had on a_ spotted waist and a black skirt. These Bill tore from her person. Mrs. Phillips sald that she was stripped by him. In the tussle that ensued Phil- lips grabbed for a razor that was in 2 bureau drawer, but Daisy was too quick for_him and she got the razor and hit Bill with it. Then Phillips went out on the sidewalk. and the Pole made a get-away and has mnot since been seen in New London. Phillips bled so. freely that there was a stream of red fluld running from the place on the walk where he rented to the gutter. He told Policemen Frank Howard and T. C. Sullivan that he had fallen from the railroad trestle, but they doubted this story and inves- tigated in the Phillips home, where they found evidence of the cutting in blood on the floor of the kitchen. Mrs. Phillips had endeavored to clear away the blood. She was arrested and taken to the police station. She was_pretty well intoxicated, but not what would be called drunk. PLAN TO REBUILD. Thames Dyeing and Bleaching Co. Will Resume Business. It is understood now that the Thames Dyeing_and Bleaching company . will begin immediately to rebuild the mill in Waterford, south of Montville, de- stroyed by fire early last week, and that the work will be pushed along with all possible haste. Modern ma- chinery will be installed in the mill so that it will have a greater productive power than before the fire. In the re- construction work it will be the pur- pose of the company to make fires im- Dossible so far as that result can be attained, though fires will occur no matter how cautiously they are guard- ed_against, though the parties that endeavor to escape them fare much better than the parties who are in some degree uncautious. The mill was most successful and it is hoped that its prosperity will continue when the mill is rebuilt. A. O, H. Societies Received Commu- nion, Members of Division No,_ 54, A. O.

The | GAITY OF CARTHAGE SHOWR BY ITS TREASURES. Described in Lecture in Washington by Frank Edward Johnson. - Members of the Washington chapter of the Archeological Institute of Amer- ica who heard Frank Edward Johnson talk about the Phoenician and Roman art treasures of Tunisia in the national museum in Washington needed but lit- tle imagination, says the Star, to step back two or three thousand years to place themselves squarely in the mid- dle of the Phoenician _cities whose ruins are shown by Mr. Johnson on the screen. Mr. Johnson's close intimacy with his subject, the fine choice of pic- tures and the rare coloring of many of the slides made it entirely possible to see in the mind's eye a swiftly run- ning history of northern Africa from the time the elusive Dido made her famous reaj estate deal with a bull's hide cut into strips down to the day when the Arabian hordes swept over the Roman cities of the northern Afri- can plains after that part of the empire had become soft and luxurious from a six hundred year peace. Mr. Johnson showed by pictures on the screen Byrsa as it now stands, créwned with a monastery of doubtful architecture. The Byrsa was Carthage, The New City, as it was called when the Phoeniclans were paddling up and down the short coast of the known world, and the bull's hide deal, as ev- ery high school boy knows, was getting as nuch land as could be covered by a bull's hide. The leather, cut in shoe- string lengths, was strefched out over a considerable area. 7 Traces of the three remarkable walls arcundy Carthage were shown by Mr. Johnson. The city was thrice engir- dled, for strategic and slege purposes, with wide zones between each wall, to permit agricultural operations within the walls in case a beleaguring force sat outside and occasionally threw a few tons of rocks at the gate. The walls were thick and contained armories for horses, war elephants and men, and also had granaries capable of holding a five-year food supply and yet Scipio tore up the city at the end of the three wars, and, acting on in- structions from the war office, wiped Rome's greatest and bitterest rival off the face of the earth, so that a plow liberally traversed the site of one: of the greatest towns of the world. This was 147 B. C., and after that, for sev- eral times as many centuries as the Urited States has been alive, the Ro- mans held eway in Carthage, their traces being shown at the national museum_yesterday. According to the Phoeniclan things of Carthage which haye been found beneath the wreck left by Sciplo, it was a lively town, a Paris or a Vienna. Its women were loud dressers, and on the word of Mr. Johnson himself, used as much powder and rouge as the women of the modern city. Moreover, they were fine looking women, accord- ing to the likenesses in bronze and stone which have been found by arch- eologists, and, according to the lecturer yesterday, wore their hair in a marcel wave, with a sort of Psyche knot at the back. In things of luxury the’Car- thagians took great care; their artists had fine talent and some remarkable pictures of their ,handiwork were shown by Mr. Johnson. After Carthage fell, and the Romans took possession, the mark of Rome was placed on the Tunisian plains. Mr. Johnson showed picture after plcture of the well paved streets of northern Africa. As in many another old Ro- man town, one could see the grooves worn in the paving by the limousines of that day—chariots drawn by the finest horses the world had seen up to that time. Mr. Johnson showed the re- markable water system of that time, agueducts which carried to Roman Carthage 8,000,000,000 gallons of water a day, and also aqueduct bridges in other ‘parts of old Tunis which had withstood the high water of a score of centuries. The lecturer had taken remarkable care to obtain many pictures of the playhouses the Romans had built In Africa. These were amphitheatres in which the casts were .composed of Christians, prisoners, and the wild beasts of ‘the interior, their roles re- quiring them to perlsh for the pleasure of the populace. Onme of the amphi- theatres shown by Mr. Johnson, a re- markably impressive ruin, would have held more spectators than the Yale Powl or the Havard stadium. where from 50,000 to 0 gather to see more scientific and less brutal football.

Fourth De- gree. z Rev. Danlel Mullen assembly, Fourth Degree, Knights of Columbus, with Grand Knight J .Edward Driscoll pre- siding, held a_very interesting meet- ing Sunday afternoon in the_council chamber of the order, in the Sunlight bulding. Members were in attend- ance from Voluntown, Taftville and Central Village. A large number of applications for membership in the Fourth Degree section were received. The members voted to hold the next meeting of the assembly in Putnam the first Sunday in May. This action was taken upon the invitation of sev- eral members of the assembly who reside in Putnam. The Rev. Daniel Mullen assembly includes in its juris- diction the councils in Norwich, Taft- ville, Moosup, Danielson and Putnam. It is very probable that the trip will be made in automobiles, and a full attendance of the members is expect- Following the regular order of bus- iness, Rev. Richard P. Morrisey of Voluntown gave a very interesting address to the members, taking for his subject, The Knights of Old as Compared with the Knights of Today. The speaker said in part: The knights of old reached their greatest numeri- cal strength during the tenth century, with headquarters at Jerusalem. Their mission was to protect the faithful or their pllgrimages to the Holy Land. Another branch of the knights of old was known as the crusaders and their main purpose was to deliver the sep- ulchre of our Lord from the hands of the infidels. The knight of today has a different mission. His purpose is & peaceful one. He is called upon to extend the brotherhood of man, to conquer, not by the sword, but by love and service to mankind. The knights of today are called upon to extend a knowledge of Christianity and to stem the tide of infidelity. “Like the knights of old,” sald the speaker, “the grand order of Knights of Columbus, num- bering hundreds of thousands, are standing togethcs, throughout this American Republic, as a grand army of Christian men, advancing the prin- ciples of Christianity, instilling a spirit of patriotism in the minds of their members, and_ standing firm, at all times, for obedience-to all lawful au- thorlty.” At the close of his remarks, Father Morrisey was warmly applauded. PAPERS SERVED IN SUIT FOR $10,000. Irving J. Willis Makes Claim Against D. St. C Donnelly for Auto Acci- dent. In a suit brought by Irving J. Willis of this city for $10,000 damages, papers were served on Dudley St. Clare Don- nelly of New London on Saturday. This is the third suit based upon the same automobile accident in which the automobiles of Mr. Donnelly and George H. Pratt of this city collided at the tannery curve on North Main street about four months ago. Mr. Willis was a passenger in the Pratt car, which was driven by, Mr. Pratt’s chauffeur. Mr. Wilis was thrown about 40 feet through the air, landing so that his spine and other parts of his body were hurt, and he was confined to his home about three months.
