' The loss in killed included one commissioned officer, five enlisted men and the wounded, seven commissioned officers and 93 enlisted men. One enlisted man was missing. RN SR T C. A. C.

One Ought to Have a Good Appetite. A good appetite is the best sauce. It goes a long way toward helping in the digestive process, and that is abso- lutely essential to health and strength. Many persons have found that Grape- Nuts food is not only nourishing but is a great appetizer, and children like the taste of it and grow strong and rosy from its use. It is especially the food to make a weak stomech strong and create an appetite for dinner. “I am 57 years old,” writes a Tenn. grandmother, “and have had a weak stomach from childhood. By great care as to my diet I enjoyed a reasonable degree of health, but never found eny- thing to equal Grape-Nuts as a stand- ¥ “When I have no appetite for break- fast and just eat to keep up my strength, I take 4 teaspoonfuls of Grape-Nuts with good rich milk, and when dinner comes I am hu 3 ‘While if I go without any breakfast 1 never feel like eating dinner.

COURT AND JURY VIEWED AUTO Gordon Machine That Was in Accident Was Brought to Court House—First Argument is Made in $10,000 Suit Brought for Death of Arthur Desmarais—Further Argu- ments Next Wednesday. The '$10,000 damage suit for the death of Arthur Desmarais, formerly of Salem, Mass., brought by C. A. Geger, Jr., the administrator of his estate, against Jacob Gordon, reached the third day of the trial here on Thursday in the superior court before Judge Gardiner Greene and a jury. ‘When court adjourned at 4.30 Attorney J. J. Desmond had spoken half an hour in making the first argument for the plaintiff, The arguments will be re- sumed on Wednesday morning, as the court is to Le oceup on Tuesday with a naturalization session, One of the incidents of the trial on Thursday afternoon was the viewing of the Gordon automobile by the judge, jurors and attorneys, which was done at the suggestion of Attorney Hadlai A. Hull for the defendant. The auto- mobile was in front of the courthouse at the time, and when the body of men trooped out to inspect it they quickly had an attendant crowd of consider- able size, as the impression spread that there had been an automobile ac- cident, especiaily when Dr. W. K. Ting- ley dr up in his machine, coming in response to a summons to testify in the case. Major Hull, with Attorney C. V. James, who is with him in the case, explained the mechanism of the Gor- don eutomobile,which was the machine that Mr. Gordon was using at the time Desmarais received the injuries on Aug. 18 last, his death in the hospital following on Sept. 3. When court came in Thursday morging the first witness called by the defense was Dr. Rush W. Kimball, who told of methods of dressing wounds, and said he used a special kind of catgut for sewing and sald he did not care for the kind used at the hospital, as it is prepared by young doctors in another hospital. He told of the prob- able effect of wounds and was cross examined by Attorney Desmond. The doctor said he did not see Mr. Des- marais until after he was dead. Dr. Kimball was followed by Peter Cicarelli, an automobile driver and garage proprietor, who testified to the operation of automobiles, and said the Gordon machine could have been stop- ped in four feet if traveling at ten miles per hour on first speed. Rachel Gordon, Abraham Levine and John Evans were also witnesses in the morning, and just before court ad- journed for the noon recess Jacob Gordon, owner and driver of the car and defendant in thif case, was called to the stand and testified that he was not going more than ten miles an hour when the accident occurred. In the afternoon session of court witnesses for the defense were Israel A. Cohen, Maranda Brodar, George E. Green and Mrs. Rose A. Davidson. The last named is the daughter of Mr. Gordon and was sitting on the front seat beside Mr. Gordon at the time of the aczident, She testified that they had been to Ocean Beach that evening, where they had stayed about half an hour, and drove at such a speed that it took them about an hour to travel each way. When they ap- proached the Thames square corner, she said, there were two women stand- ing on the crosswalk which runs east- erly from the Francis store corner. The automobile bell was rung to warn these women and the automobile was traveling at a moderate rate of She saw Herbert H. Brown clinging to the front of the machine when the automobile struck the Rathbone drug storeg window, but she did not see Deléo.ra.im One of her knees was hurt, but she was not thrown out of the machine, and she was able to get out herself, although a man who was there helped her. A physician attend- ed to the injury to her knee after she had gone ‘home that night. This closed the testimony for the defense, and in rebuttal Attorney Des- mond called Dr, W. K. Tingley to the stand. The doctor sald he is surgeon and gynecologist at the Backus hos- ital and has been connected with the ospital from the beginning. He was asked if Desmarais had ever talked with him about the accident, answering that the injured men had done so. When .Attorney Desmond asked the doctor what Desmarais had said, At- torney Hull objected to an answer be- ing given to this question, and Judge Greene sustained the objection. The doctor was asked what the quality of the catgut used at the hospital was and he answered A-1, and that they were proud of it. Attorney Hull ob- jected to the last statement about be- ing proud of it, and the court ruled that the pride could be left out. Both sides rested at 8.56 and Attor- ney Desmond opened the arguments at 3.59, after Major Hull said he had some requests to charge to present, but they were not ready yet as he had not anticipated that the arguments would be reached on Thursday. The judge told him that he would endeavor to give them fair comsideration if Ma- Jjor Hull would prepare them and hand them in later. N. A. GIBBS ON TRIP WITH BANKERS.

Rawscn of Killingly has an old book compiled 150 years ago entitled Young Man's Best Companion, or In- struction for Youth in True English. Beginning with the alphabet, it in- cludes spelling, reading, writing, arith- metic, geography, astronomy and book- keeping, with forms for many legal pa- pers. It is a medium size book, but it also tells how to make sundials, how to preserve and make wine from com- mon fruits, medicines for different dis- eases and gives extended garden in- formation, telling what to do in the orchard, fruit and kitchen gardens ev- ery month in the year. Mr. Rawson prizes the book very highly and intends to present it to some of the descendants of a person ‘whose name is in the book. Warned Not to Block Hydrants. Automobilists are asked by Fire Chief Howard L. Stanton to use care in parking their machines alongside curbs and not. allow them to stand di- rectly in front of fire hydrants. The department might be called out at any minute and valuable time is lost if the firemen have to wait until someone starts his engine and rolls his machine away from a hydrant where the fire- men are to couple hose. On several occasions lately Chief Stanton has come across machines stopped right in front of hydrants in the business section of the city. In many cities there is an ordinance prohibiting this practice and in Hartford offenders are fined $3. Provides Piano For Nurse’s Home. A gift of $25 towards a piano at the nurses’ home at the Backus hospital, as first announced in The Bulletin a short time ago has impelled another business man to set things moving and the nurses’ home is now rejoicing in a fine ebony cased piano which is just the thing that was needed. After the superintendent of the hos- pital and a piano man had examined the piano, which the business man knew of, finding it to be just suited to the use for which it was suggested, the business man promptly interested seven others, all contributing _equal amount toe make up the price of $200, and the piano is now at the hospital which 1t is more than appreciated.

Fire Chief Stanton and a number of the department men were busy all day Thursday investigating conditions in cellars about the business section of the ecity, thus cooperating with the City Beautiful committee in the gener- al clean-up campaign belng on this week. Chief Stanton reports that the condition of the city in zeneral !s good as only two or three violatiqns were dlscovered. When the attent! of the occupants of the premises where the violations occurred, was called to the fact the matter was quickly recti- fled.
