Printed copies of the last biennial report of the state board of charities have been left in the office of the comptroller for distribution. The report says that with an esti- mated population of 1,200,000 there are 188 institutions “maintained for the restraint and care of delinquent, defective and dependent classes Two notable additions to the list of Connecticut institutions were made during the biennial period by the opening of the Connecticut reformatory at Cheshire in June, 1913, and the Colony for Epileptics at Mansfield Dq pot, in May, 1914. “The reformatory, says the report, “provides an excellent institution for the treatment of of- fenders between 16 and 25 years of age for whom there is some hope of re- generation. The Colony for Epileptics, with its limited initial capacity of 80 patients is already proving its useful- ness.” The report says of the hospitals in the state: “The general condition of these benevolent institutions throughout the state shows a high or- der of excellence in equipment, man- agement and the care of patients.” In commending the condition of the state prison at Wethersfield the re- says: “The blennial period under review has been marked by a number of improvements at the state prison, both in the discipline of the inmates and in the materfal condition of the in- stitution. Several innovations in_the treatment of the prisoners have been introduced, which are in line with the growing tendency among modern pris- ons to grant such reasonable privileges as are not incensistent with the main- tenance of good discipline. Among them may be mentioned liberty to talk during the noonday meal, certain im- provements in the arrangements for bathing and clean clothes, the develop- ment of the prisoners’ orchestra and the library and the discontinuance of the practice of carrying firearms by the inside guards. “No officer is allowed to strike a prisoner except in self defense.” GAGER _ Funeral Director and Embalmer Prompt serviceday or night Tel. 642-2.

NEW SUITS FOR SUPERIOR COURT e ) Foreclosure of Three Mortgages On Water Street Property is Asked For—Divorce Sought by Thomas Budnick—Re- ceivership for Shetucket Coal and Wood Co—Waste and Mismanagement Now Alleged. Papers in three new suits Teturnable before the superior court on the first Tuesday in June. The domestio troubles of Thomas and Adelia Budnick of No. 464 North Main street, which have brought both man and wife into public notice re- cently, have resuited in a suit for di- vorce which is one of the three cases filed. It is brought by the husband alleging that his wife has committed a_statutory offense between April 6 and May 17, 1915, with Joseph Ray- nolds, and he also claims that his wife has been intolerably cruel to him since Dec. 25, 1914. The couple were mar- ried on May 3, 1913. Several weeks ago the husband had his wife before the city court on a charge of breach of the peace, and the following week she had him arrested for non-support. He was ordered to pay her $2 per week and that night she attempted suicide by drinking carbolic acid at their home. _ After treatment at the Backus hospital, she recovered from the ef- fects of the poison. In his divorce ac- tion Mr. BudnicK's attorney is John D. Hall. Foreclosure of three mortgages is asked in a suit brought through At- torney William H. Shields by Lewellyn J. Storrs_of Mansfield ageinst Mar- garet A. Driscoll and Mary J. Dorsey of Norwich, Mae McGuire of Newton, X. J. and Mae McGuire as executrix of the will of Anna M. Calvin, late of Newton. S5t 3 One mortgage was_originally given on April 13, 1389, for $2,500 from Elea- nor C. Keigwin to-Willlam H. Shields, and: is on real estate on Water street where Margaret ‘A. Driscoll and Mary J. Dorsey claim a lease of the prem ises. The second mortgage is for $1,000 on the same property and was given on Aug. 1, 1884, by Loren R. Jensen and ‘Anna M. Jensen to the plaintiff in this case. The third mortgage is for $1,000 and was given on April 8, 1895, from Jensen to Storrs. Reuben Shapiro, who is the owner of 2 shares of the capital stock of the Shetucket Coal and Wood company of this city, and the joint owner with Jacob Siosberg of one share, asks for a receiver for the company and the winding, up of its affairs. The com- pany’s stock issue is 45 shares, par $100. The plaintiff alleges .that the cor-)| poration is under the control _and management of Jacob and Hattie Slos- berg and that through the fraud and collusion of Jacob and Hattie Slosberg the corporation has exceeded its pow- ers_in issuing and delivering in April, 1915, ten shares of the capital stock, without the consent and authority of the stockholders and against the pro- test of the plaintiff. It is further alleged that Jacob Slos- berg as secretary and treasurer and his wife, Hattie Slosbers, who is presi- dent of ‘the company, have refused to let the plaintiff see the books and have grossly mismanaged the affairs of the company so that the assets are In danger of further waste under their management. Wrongful and fraudulent actions are charged in issuing checks and notes of the corporation. CAN TRANSFER EPILEPTICS FROM COUNTY HOMES. Opinion on Law Given by Attorney General Hinman. Attorney General George E. Hinman gave an opinion Monday to Dr. Donald L. Ross, superintendent of the Con- necticut colony for epileptics, relative to his power to remove a patient suf- fering from epilepsy to the Connecti- cut colony for epileptics by transfer from a county home, of which institu- tion the patient was an inmate, having been committed thereto by order of the probate court. The opinion reads: The general subject of transfers of this nature has been covered in two former opinions given you by this de- partment dated June 11, 1914, and Feb. 10, 1915, and the situation in’the pres- ent case appears to be similar, in most respects, to that covered by the last mentioned opinion. However, section 10 of chapter 207 of the public acts of 1909, under which such transfers are made, provides that epileptic patients may be transferred from any institu- tion in the state “upon the recom- mendation of the medical superintend- ent of the respective institutions from and to which it is desired to transfer such patient: The county home in question has no medical superintendent, in the gener- ally accepted sense of the term, but I do not think that the lack of an official bearing this specific title should or need prevent the operation of the law in _such a case. Section 89 of the general statutes provides that if, “in the opinion of the board of management of any such home, acting under the advice of the ph: ian employed by it,” any child admitted to such home be demented, idiotic, or suffering from an incurable or contagious disease, such child shall be removed from the home in the man- ner therein specified. In my opinion a physician sg em- ployed by the board of management may properly, for the purpose of such transfer as that under consideration, be regarded as the medical superin- tendent of the home, and that the fact that a transfer was so recommended would not in itself render the trans- fer invalid. It would not be improper, however, and might be wise, as an ad- ditional precaution, to refer any such application for transfer to the state board of charities, as permitted by said section 10 of chapter 207 of the public acts of 1909, and the recommendation of said board also secured before mak- ing the transfer. I would further suggest that, while there is no specific requirement in the law governing your institution to that effect, you notify the comptroller of all transfers made to and from the Con- necticut colony for epileptics in like manner as provided by section 2797 of the general statutes concerning trans- fers between county homes and reform and industrial schools. PROTECT AGAINST CUTWORM. Storrs Station Tells How to Sprinkle Poisoned Bran Mash. from the Experiment The following directions Connecticut Agricultural station have been issued: Cutworms are the caterpillars or larvae of ceratin moths, and have the habit of cutting off the stems of plants near the surface of the ground. Much injury is done by them to mearly all kinds of garden and field crops, and many inquiries ere sent to the station each year regarding remedies. Cut- worms naturally feed during their growth upon the roots of grass and other native plants and ordinarily are unnoticed. From the time the ground is plowed usually several days elapse Defore the plants appear, and during this time the worms are forced to go without food. The newly transplanted plants are thereforée attacked and greatly damaged. The name cutworm is applied to the larvae of several species of owlet or noctuid moths, all of which ere somber colored and fly at night. There is usually one brood each year, and the eggs are laid upon grasses during the latter part of sum- mer. One of the most satisfactory reme- dies is to.distribute a poisoned sweet- ened bran mash over the field, which bay be prepared as follows: Bran five pounds, paris green four ounces, lemon or orenge one fruit, molasses one pint, water seven pints. Mix the bran and paris green to- gother, dry. Squeeze juice of lemon into water, and then cut pulp end peel into. fine pieces-and add to water; then add molasses and stir. Add syrup to Schwartz, Rutl Beatrise Boyd, SR e bran and mix thoroushly, The mash should be scattered over the field just before dark, preferably e few days be- fore the plants are set. A fow plants in the garden may be protected by wrapping the stems with paper. Cutworms may also be trapped by placing small pieces of board on the ground. They will crawl under these, and can then be hunted and killed. Late fall plowing uncovers many cut- ‘worms, thus them to birds and other natural enemle: Contestants In Prize Readings.

Washington, May 25.—Connecticut projects for new public buildings do not seem to be making much progress in_government circles these days. Inquiry, at the supervising archi- tect’s office developed the fact that the biggest public_building project in the state, that at New Haven, is get- ting along pretty well. The super- structure of the federal building in that city is sald to be nearly com- pleted. Plans are being prepared_for the interlor finish of the building. Bids on_this latter work will be called for before long. New Haven, however, seems to be an exception to the general rule. There is Branford, for instance, where a site and building was authorized by con- gress in 1913 at a cost of $55,000. No bid for furnishing Uncle Sam with a site has yet been accepted by the department. Four thousand dollars has been ap- propriated to buy a site at Mystic, where the comstruction of a building has been authorized by congress to 000, as long ago as 1913. Yet ject has made no advance prac- tically. At Middletown the construction of a building to cost $140,000 was author- ized two years ago. A site is al- ready owned there by the government. This project is only seventy-eighth on the list of projects to be taken up by the architect. These projects are taken up in order and it will be lucky if Middletown is reached before the Jond vice president, Mrs fall of 1916. Then it takes a long time to: prepare plans and specifica- tions, advertise for bids, consider the same, and award a contract. All of these steps, of course, must follow the acquirement of a site, which means a very long delay in the case of Mys- tic and Branford and other places. The Rockville building project must take its turn, the architect says. When that will be is not known. At Man- chester a site is owned, but no build- ing upon it has been authorized. The Putnam building case is being held up awaiting additional legisla- tion, thanks to the efforts of former Representative Mahan of New Lon- don to have the government site al- ready purchased there exchanged for another site. This delay is apt to con- tinue_for a year or more. An $80,000 building has been author- ed for Naugatuck, which is thirty- xth on the list. That means that work will begin on the plans of that structure some time after next Jan- uary. Still later will project, which come the Seymour involves & $60,000 building on a site owned by the gov- ernment. This is the fifty-sixth pro- ject on the list and may be reached in_the spring of 1916. The Danbury and Stamford build- ing projects, which were authorized years ago, are now under contract, but the Stamford building is not to be completed before September, 1916, The Danbury building will be a long time attaining completion, although $80,000 is available for work upon it. CONSTRUCTING FLOOR UNITS AT STATE PIER Entire. Work Will Require About Two Months More. One of the most notable develop- ments in the progress of the big new terminal pier at New London is the walling in of the outer end, which will be finished in a few days. This will completely surround the filled aree with a solid granite wall, ready for the pumping in of dredged material. The water within the enclosed space will be forced out as-the heavier substance is_pumped in, The chief feature of the activities at the present tlme is the construction of the massive concrete floor units which will constitute the surface of the pler. Nearly 100 men are now engaged in this work and in_laying the units after they have dried out a sufficient number of days. The con- tractor has increased his equipment S0 that now he is able to turn out an average of 70 units a week. A total of about 750 will be required for the entire pier and of these more than 150 have been constructed and lald. Thus at the present rate of output, the whole number will be com- pleted within a period of about two months. A layer of asphalt placed over the units will give a smooth, per- manent surfacesto the pler. The railroad trucks which will run in a double line the length of the pler, will be sunk sc that the doors of cars will be on a level with the freight platforms, thus greatly facili- Ptak T wiex of Jeaghig end on- oading.

COMING IN ANOTHER WEEK Monday, June 7th, Is Time for Them to ‘Arrive at Gales Ferry, Monday, June 7, has been set.as the date of departure for all the Harvard oarsmen who are going to Gales Ferry. The shells, coaching Jaunches and other equipment, will precede the men on Saturday, so that everything will be in readiness for the men to Tow on the Thames on thelr arrival on Monday. It has been decided that the junior race will be for second var- sity eights rather than fours, follow- ing the changed custom of last year. Harvard favored a return to varsity fours, but Yale was opposed, and Har- vard lost her point on a toss-up for choice. Accordingly the Harvard crews on the Thames will be a first and second varsity, with perhaps enough substi- tutes for the two to make a four-oar in additioh; and a freshman eight and four with enough substitutes to make a second four. The three important races on the programme are as usual, the four miles for first varsity eights, and the two-mile events for freshman eights and second varsity crews. The races of the varsity and freshman fours, made up of subs for the other crews, and the race for gentlemen’s eights, if one is arranged, are addi- tional ‘events of an informal nature.

If you have a bad taste in you mouth, ‘tongueé coated, appetite: poor, lazy, don’t-care feeling, no ambition or energy, troubled with undigested food, you should teke Olive Tablets, the sub- stitute for calomel.

Tablet Company, Colum- u: —_— TUNNEL TO CONNECT COLLEGE BUILDINGS Will Run- from Power and Heating Plant to Other Structures. | Award has just been made of the contract for the construction of the big underground tunnel at Connecti- cut College for Women, now_under construction at New London. It is to connect the dormitories, science hall and other structures with the power and heating plant. The tunnel, which is to be built of concrete and stone, measure seven feet in height and four in width. Through it will run all pipes, such as those containing light- ing and telephone wires, and steam. The conduit will be approximately 559 feet in length, Plant and Ailyn halls, as the dormi- tories are to be known, are ready for the finishing touches. 'The roofs are on and they are receiving their final coat of plaster. The window frames are also in place. Practically the dor- mitories appear as they will when the institution s formally opened in Sep- tember next. Slaters are now at work putting the roof on the science building, to be known as New London hall. Their operations will be finished before the end of the week. The heating §nd power plant has also reached the stage where the roof is being laid. Thus fodr of the college buildings are almost in readiness for use. By the terms of the contract Aug. 1 was the date set for finishing them but they will probably be completed considerably before that time. The next thing to be done will be the rebuilding of the Lee and Prentis dwelling houses on the college prop- erty into a temporary refectory or dining hall and the construction of an open air gymnasium as advocated by President Sykes, Ruth, .
