About 1.30 o'clock Tuesday afternoon Milton Carolan, 4 1-2 year old’son of ._and Mrs. Morris Carolan, of No, 31 West Main street, was struck and almost _instantly killed by a touring car owned and driven by IFrank Farn- ham of Gardner Lake. The accident happened almost in front of the child's home. , Mr. and Mrs. Farnham, with their two children, were on their way to Norwich, and as they were driving through West Main street they met an approaching ice cart. Not knowing that there were children following in the wake of the ice cart, Mr. Farnham did not slacken his speed, and when the boy darted from behind the cart right in front of the auto it was im- possible to stop. Mr, Farpham said the first thing he saw was the radiator strike the child, so suddenly did he dart in front of the touring car. Mr. Farnham - immediately . stopped his car and picking the chfld up in his arms carried him to the piazza of the residence of Mr. and Mrs. M. V. B. Pierson, where he laid him on a settee. As Mr. Farnham laid the child down a tremor passed over his body and death came. A hurry call was sent in for the auto-ambulance and for Dr. Louis T. Cassidy. Dr. Cassidy hurried to the scene of the accident, arriving there within two minutes after he received the call. Dr. Cassidy made a super- ficlal examination and satisfied him- self that the boy was dead. No bruises were found on the body, but there were two wounds on the head and a flow of blood from the mouth, nose and left ear and en apparent fracture at the base of the skull. . Medical Exam- iner Rush W. Kimball was called and wing the body gave Under- hurch & Allen permission to remove it to their morgue. An autopsy was held at the morgue and death was found to have been caused by a frac- ture at the base of the skull. The child was in the habit, it is said, of climbing on the step in the rear of ice carts as they passed the house and was continually playing in the street. His fatier, Morris Carolan, is employ- ed as a teamster by Morris Sussman. STOLEN SILVERWARE QUICKLY RECOVERED Thief Got Into John J. Harrington's Home on Hinckley Hill, While John J.

It con- sisted of nine forks and a nickle fork, three ladles, _seven tablespoons and ten teaspoons. AT RIFLE RANGE, Two Norwich Companies and New London Company Were at Preston. The Fifth Co.

The attempt to have Dr. Louis Cas- sldy answer a question as to his opinion as to how tetanus, or lockjaw, infection entered the system of the late Arthur Desmarals was engaging the attention of the superior court at the time of adjournment here on Tuesday afternoon in the trial of the suit ofC. A. Gager, Jr. administrator o the estate of Arfhur Desmarais, against Jecob Gordon. "The suit is brought for the statutory sum of $10,000. In the complaint it is alleged that on August 18, 1914, Jacob Gordon was running his automobile on West Main street at Thames square at a greater than reasonable and prop- er speed, exceeding 25 miles per hour for a distance of more than one eighth of a mile, in consequence of which it ran upon the sidewalk, striking Arthur Desmarais and causing the injuries from which Desmarais died on Sep- tember 3rd. Dr. Cassidy was the last witness on the stand on Tuesday and in the course of his testimony as to the in- juries to Desmarais stated that his death at the Backus hospital occur- red from tetanus, or lockjaw. Attor- ney J. J. Desmond, who with Attor- ney James J. Ronan of Salem, Mass. is counsel for the plaintiff, had the witness describe the lockjaw g erm, which the doctor said he found in gar- den soil or in road beds where manure had been scattered and which secures entrance into the human system through an open wound into which dirt_has been introduced. ‘When Attorney Desmond asked for the doctor's opinion as to how the tetanus germ had been Introduced in the case of Desmarais, Attorney Had- lai A. Hull objected on the ground that the question ought not to Ue al- lowed unless it could be shown that the doctor had knowledge of all the opportunities for infection _which might have occurred in this case. The attorneys argued at length over this matter and Judge Gardiner Greene offered suggestions as to what might be shown and when court adjourned questions were still being asked by Attorney Desmond to prepare the way for claiming the admission of the doctor’s, opinion. Attorney C, V. James is counsel with Attorney Hull for the defendant When the trial of the case was started on Tuesday morning, the fol- lowing jury for the case was chosen: ‘William 'S, Geer, John T. Clark, Daniel Preston, Norwich: Thomas McClimon, Charles C. Zabriskie, Ed- win R. Scott, Preston; Myron R. Abel, Colchester; John G. Perkins, Lebanon; Charles H, Philiips, tah; Géorge A.

Herbert H, Brown, who was caught and pinned up against the window of the Rathbone drug store by the Gor- don automoblle at the same time as Desmarais was hurt, testified regard- ing the accident, was badly hurt about the legs at the time and was in the Backus hospital for a considerable time. —~ Lindsey G. Smith, the - playwrisht, who was an evewitness of the acci- dent, followed Mr. Brown on the stand and after him Miss Madeline M. Fields, a student nurse ‘at the Backus hos. pital, told of the care given My Des- marais while he was there, Charles Delaware Turner, colored, who helped carry Desmarais into the drug store after the accident, was also put on the stand. Desmarais was taken from under the auto unconscious and it was a day or two before his identity was established. He formerly came from Salem, Ma: Jacob Gordon, owner and driver of the automobile, who had his daugh- ter, Mrs. Barnet Davidson, with him at the time, was put on the stapd and described the accident, saying that it was unavoldable and that he was not driving at a_dangerous rate of speed. Dr. Louis T. Cassidy testified to be- ing called to Rathbone'’s drug store by telephone and finding Herbert H. Brown there injured. He gave him some_treatment and then went into the back room, where another man was stretched out uncomscious, with an extensive cut across his forehead, Dr. Patrick Cassidy and Dr. H. E. Higgins also came, The ambulance was called and Mr, Brown and the other man, who was Desmarais, were both sent 'to the Backus hospital in the ambulance. Desmarais also had a cut on his leg. The cuts were sewed by Doctors Cassidy and Tingley and a doctor at the hospital. The witness testified that Desmarais was getting along nicely for nine or ten days, when lockjaw developed and the man’ died three or four days after that from lockjaw. The doctor said Desmarals appeared to be a strons, robust man, in good general health. A deposition is probably to be taken from Dr. Patrick Cassidy, who is not well enough to be In court. Breach of Contract Settled. When the superior court came in in the morning Judge Greene was in- formed that the case of Walter O. Whitaker vs. Thames River Specialties company had been adjusted out of court. It was a claim for $12,000 for breach of contract, but the amount paid could not be learned. The case was tried some time ago and the jury disagreed. The caSe oc- cupied about two weeks of the court time, MILITARY WEDDING AT FORT WRIGHT. Captain Floyd Kramer and Miss Dor- othy M.

D. of Hartford and the gruemntlun of tableaux upgn the iblical story of Ruth were given on Sunday evening before & crowded house "at the Colonial theatre under the auspices of Norwich camp, No. 75, Order Bons of Zion, the Ji Bible school and the United Zionist clubs. The address, given in both Hebrew and English, was upon the subject of Scieatific- Zionism and proved particu- larly interesting during the hour in whieh Dr, Cohen spoke. He was in- troduced by Charles M. Gorden, chair- man of the education committee of the camp. Seven Factions. Dr, Cohen pointed out seven Jewish factions, all trying to eolve the Jewish problem. Of these he described first the orthodox Jew, who maintains that the Je wis everlasting, indestructible, and that no power on earth will van- quish him, and salvation and restora- tion will only come from God. Th reformed Jews argue that we are Py here in America. We have ohr temple and our rabbi. Why should we worry for the Jews in Russia and Rou- mania? Twenty-five years ago they even decided to omit all prayers which relate to Palestine and Zion and pro- claimed that the United States is Palestine and Washington is Jerusa- em. __Another faction is the assimilation ist who says assimilate, amalgamate in other words, cease to be Jews and there will be no Jewish problem, Such a proposal was never made to any other nation, to cease to be themselvea. Then there is the socialist who tries to solve the problem by having the Jew to accept his doctrine, but that is too long to wait. It might be all right in the long run. and it might not be, and why should you wait for an ex- periment? There is also the territorialist, who says take your Uganda which is offer- ed by Great Britain or the territory that was offered by Jacob H. Schiff in this country. The territorialist idea was expounded by Israel Zangwill, and after advocating it for 12 years he has just announced that territorialism is bankrupt. And Jacob Schiff had to give up his Galveston bureau for the same reason. It has remained for the Ziomist to offer and sive the only correct solu- tion of the problem, and that is ac- quire legally again the land that for- merly belonged to us in Palestine, made sacred by our blood and hallow- ed by our prophets. Palestine is no more a dream, it is a reality. There are 41 prosperous colonies that have grown up in the past 20 years, all through the work of concentratlo Colonies Self Supporting. Among other things that Dr. Cohen l EVEN CURES ULCERS Remarkable Results from Skin Remedy That Costs Almest Nathing.

'Phene 321-2 Lady Assistant direction of Mrs. Herman Alofsin, 2nd, were creditably given. After the performance Dr. Cohen and the officers and wives of the Nor- wich Zion camp, the teachers from the Bible school, and those that parti- clpated in the pla as well as the officers of the Young Agulars and of the Maccabeans were all invited fo the home of Mr, and Mrs. Charles M.

Herman Alofsin 2nd was accepted as an honerary member of the Zion camp in recognition of the work he has done for them and the Bible school. Dr. Cohen had the honor of pre- senting the medals awarded on flag dey to four young ladies, who were, Miss Dinah Kadesh, Miss Goldie Sil- verman, Miss Fannie Levine and Miss Dora Crumb. Music was rendered by a Victrola loaned by the Plaut-Cadden Co.. Among these present were guests from Storrs, Nathan Cohen, Joseph said was that if we didn't have the pauper Jewish population who go there to dle, there would have been no need for shipping fcodstuffs to Palestine be- cause the colonists are well to do and able to take care of themselves if the war should last three years. He was loudly applauded as he close his stirring address. Ruth Tableaux, The Ruth tableaux were under the direction of Herman Alofsin, 2d, assist- ed by Miss Lena Shereshevsky and Miss Fannie Levine. They were ad- mirably carried out and wers given in appropriate costume and stage setting for the several scenes, so that the Biblical story of Ruth was given in a very clear and impressive manner. Scythes and sickles loaned by the Eaton Chase company and bundles of straw by Fire Chlef Howard L. Stan- ton were of use in the stage settings. The music was by Sweet's orchestra and the hall was decorated with Zion- ist flags and banners. lorhe characters were taken as fol- ows: oaz, Abraham Levine; Ruth, Miss nnie Levin. Orpah, Miss Eva Gold berg; Naomi, Miss Gussie Siegal; | cleaners, Miss Rose Goldberg, Miss Bessie Shereshevsky, Miss _Dora Crumb; Teapers, Max Hertz, Henry Levine. A symbolical tableau of the Jewish pational fund picturing a leaf of the golden book of the Jewish national fund was presented by Miss Dinah Kadesh, Paul Schwartz, Benjamin Ben- dett and Henry Levine. Jewish National Fund. At the conclusion of the tableaux, Israel Cohen gave a description of the work for the Jewish National fund and what has been accomplished so far. He spoke as follows: Tonight we are honoring at the same time the most ancient and the most modern institutions expressive of Jew- ish national life—Shabouth, the fes- tival of the first fruits of the land, and the Jewish national fund, the Zionist institution whose purpose it is to regain for the Jewish people that ancient soil of the first fruits of our history, our religion and our national ideals; The Jewish national fund is a fund raised by the Jewish people for the Jewish people. Its chief object is to acquire land in Palestine and its vi- cinity, which land becomes the per- manent and inalienable property of the Jewish people. The land bought by the Jewish national fund capnot be sold. It belongs to the Jewish people —to you and me—forever. It may be and is leased to Jewish farmers and to Jewish institutions, but it is own- ed by the whole Jewish people. Although founded by the Zionist congress as late as 1901, the Jewish national fund now amounts to nearly $1,000,000. Twenty-five per cent. of this is held in reserve for emergencies. The rest is to be devoted to the pur- chase of land in Palestine, and to its cultivation. The Jewish national fund has ac- quired many tracts of fertile land in Palestine. On this land there _are workmen's agricultural colonies; farm schools for men and women; the ag- ricultural experiment station; groves of olive and other fruit trees, and also workmen's dwellings, which have been built by the Jewish national fund with a fund especially raised for the pur- pose; the Bezalel Art school and other schools and institutions are built upon national fund land. The Jewish national fund is raised entirely by voluntary offerings from the Jewish people. It is the people's eternal capital.
