RICHARD MANSFIELD OWNER OR LESSEE MUST ; WILL GIVE READING, PAY BILLBOARD TAX. Shows Her Interest in Connecticut | Attorney General Hinman Renders a College For Women. At the weekly convocation of the Connecticut College for Women- at New London, this week, the president, Dr. Frederick H. Sykes, announced that Mrs. Richard Mansfield had of- fered to give a reading and had ex- pressed her interest in the annotnce- ment that the college dramatic club was planning to give “Arms and the Man” by Bernard Shaw, saying it had heen a’ favorite of Mr. Mansfield’s.

The language of the law passed at the };ut session of the general assem- bly for the taxing of billboards at the rate of one cent a square foot does not make its interpretation easy. Sec- retary~of State Charles D. Burnes has found ‘it necessary to propound a ques- tion to Attorney General George E. Hinman for the elucidation of the act. The secretary asks as to whether in the case of advertisements displayed, on space owned or leased by another, the license required-by the act should be obtained and the fee paid by the owner or lessee of the advertising space or by the person- whose ‘adver- tisement is to be displayed thereon. In his answer to the question, the attorney general says that under the statUte the obligation to secure the li- cense for the display of advertisements is placed on the person, firm or cor- poration displaying the advertisement. In section 3, however, the secretary authorized to issue a license to pe sons owning or leasing space for ad- vertising upen payment of the fee and further provides that any advertise- ment placed upon any such space shall be exempt from the payment of any iicense fee during the period for which such space is so licensed. One proposing to_display advertise- ments coming within,_ the terms of the therefore, secure the re- guired license and pay. the fee, unless the space upon which such advertise. ment is to be displayed has been ex- empted by the owner or lessee thereof uring from your near-" est druggist or dealer a sup= ly of ’s Pure Malt . iskey, Itis reliablein | building up the system, as at- tested by several generations who have used it with uniform- 1y good results.

New London Pastor States Action Taken in State Convention. In a letter published in New London, Rev. J. A. Elder, pastor of the Hunt- ington street Baptist church of that city, writes that the Baptist state con- vention is not opposed to a parole for ‘William F. Walker, as had been ru- mored, but on the contrary has voted to petition the board of pardons to parole Mr. Walker from the state prison, where he has served nine and one-half years. Rev. Mr. Elder writes as follows: I noticed some rumors in the papers this week regarding the proposed parole of Willlam F. Walker from the state prison at Wethersfield, and espe- cially as to possible opposition on the part of the Baptist state convention. Perhaps, as 1 was present and took part in the discussion of the matte: in the convention board meeting in Mid- dletown, I ought to publicly state a few facts brought out there. Mr. lker received a sentence of from one to 20 years. He has served nire and a half years, besides several months in Mexico. He is now 70 years of age, and has lost weight, ru ning down from 146 to 120 pounds. His character and conduct in the prison is exemplary, Two witnesses who have visited him at times says that he is deeply penitent and speaks with emotion of his errors. All the securities taken by him have been ac- counteq for, the last lot of $100,000 in bonds having been regained from the sharpers into whose hands Walker fell, by compromising for $50,000 or $60,000. He tas no means left and has no buried loot which he hopes to enjoy on his release. The New Britain Savings to his release, but cannot act official- ly, as their depositors might criticize. Walker will never fill any position of trust again. He is old and broken down and will have to be cared for by relatives. The ignominy of his deeds and his sentence will rest on him to the last moment of his remaining life. No parole can change the public shame which he must still endure. To return him to his relatives, who have suffered so deplorably on his account, would seem but a slight boon to grant. The board of trustees of the Baptist state convention, after discussing this matter in two sessions, voted unani- mously to petition the board of parole for the release of William F. Walker. Rev. John R. Stubdert, D. D, and others who at first expressed doubts, withdrew all opposition. The Baptists are better off because of Walker's em- bezziements. They had $50,000 in 1906, Losing this through him, they restored it in a united campaign and kept on until today they have $235,000 invested funds of the state convention. I trust the above facts may help some to see the matter of Mr. Walk-- er's release as an act of mercy to an old, troken down, repentant man, who fell into the hands of stronger men than himself, and was led into a crime for which nearly ten years of impris- onment would seem enough. AT THE DAVLS. Vaudeville and Photoplays. At the Davis theatre on Thursday at the matinee, the vaudeville pro- gramme for the last half of the week Qrought on Peterson, Dick and Morris- on, a trio of singers, who presented an act full of variety and melody in their solos, duets and trio numbers, and all brought out generous applause that pronounced their act a favorite. The big feature on the picture screen was The Girl From His Town, a four part picture that was full of dramatic situations and conveved a moral that was worth seeing. The 18th chapter of the Diamond From the Sky was shown and brought this se- rial up to new interesting develop- ments Mrs. L. H. Smith's 87th hday. Monday, Oct. 25th, was the 87th birthday of Mre.

The second film showed the crude iron being refined by Bessemer pro- cess, in which the molten iron is pour- ed into a large pear-shaped vessels holding about ten tons, where the im- puritics are eliminated by ovidation, air zeing blown through the molten mass. The refined iron (so-called soft steel) made by elther of these process- es is much more ni ¥ pure iron than that made bv the old, hand-puddling process and Is also considerably stronger and more uniform. Follow- ing this was seen the highly refined iron—or soft steel, as it is termed— being cast into ingots, reheated, and rolled into biooms, slabs or billets, on various types of mills adopted to this purpose. In this form the materia! is ready for the rolling mill, where it is converted into =kelp, or sheets, from which the pipe is made. The new roll-knobbling process of working the metal (which is termed Spellerizing) was shown in detail. The metal is thereby given much adiitional mechanical kneading while hot, thus rendering the structure more dense and resistant to corrosion and pitting. There are two proces-n of making pipe, 1. e, butt-weld and lan-weid. The latter part of Film II showed the mak- ing of butt-weld pipe. First charging the flat strips of metal into the weld- ing furnace, then drawing out of the other end of the furnace throuch the welding bell. The first part of the third fi'm il- lustrated the method of maki: lap- weld pipe n large sizes. Th"‘b!nd- ing of the sheets, charging into weld- ing furnace, welding rolls, sizing rolls and finishing rolls were shown in or- der. Testing and inspection of pipe and threads follow. e same pro- cess applies to smaller lap-weld pipe and tubes. Details peculiar i0 the making and testing of small tubes were shown afterwards. A description of the butt-weld pro- cess follows: Skelp used in ing butt-weld pipe comes frcm the/ rolling department of the steel mills with a specified length, width and gage, according to the size pipe for which it is ocdered. The edges are slichtly beveled with the j face of the skelp, =0 that the surface of the plate which is to become ihe inside of the pipe is not quite as wide as that which forms the outside; thus when the cdges are brought together they meet squarely. The end of each Plate is turned up in a press and sheared to facilitate handling with the welding tongs. The skelp for all butt-weld pipe is heated uniformly to the weiding tem- perature. The strips of stee! when properly heated are seized by their ends with tongs and drawn fram the furnaces through bell-shaped Jles, or “bells’ as they are called. The Inside of the bell is so curved that the plate is gradually formed in the shape of a tube, the edges being forced squarely together and welded. For some sizes the pipe is drawn through twe bells consecutively at one heat, one bell be- ing just behind the other, the second one being of e slightly smaller dia- meter than the first. The pipe is then run through sizing and cross rolls similar to those used in the lap-weld p: to secure *he correct outside diameter and finish. After leaving the cross rolls the pipe passes to an inclined cooling table up which it rolls, thus preventing un- equal cooling. When cold, the ends of the pipe are cut off and the pipe is then threaded, if desired, after which it is tested. The lap-weld consists of two operations, bending and welding. The plate, rolled to the necessary width and gage for the size of pipe intended, is brought to a red ueat in a suitable furrace and then passed through a set of rolls which bevel the edges, so that when overlapped and welded the seam will be neat and smooth. It now pass- es immediately to the bending ma- chine, where it takes roughly the cv indrical shape of a pipe with the two edges overlapping, In this form it is again heated in another furnace, and when brought to the wel tempera-~ ture the bent skelp Is pushed out of the furnace into the welding rolls. Fach of these rolls has a semi circu- lar groove a circular corresponding to held in position welding yolls by a stout bar, servi to support the inside of the pipe as it is carried through. This “bhall” or mandrel is shaped like a projectile and the pipe slides over it on being drawn through the rolls. Thus every portion of the lapped edge is subjected to a compression the ball cn the inside and the on the ontside, which red: the lap to;the same thickness as rest of thd pipe, and ‘wel pping portions soMdly ds the overia; The pipe then enters similarly shaped rolls called the sizing rolls, which cor- Tect any in shaje and give the outside diameter re- quired.

The surfaces of these rolls are so curved that the tube is in contact with each for the whole length of the roll, and is passed for- ward and rapidly rotated when the rolis are revolved. The tube is made practicaily straight by the cros: rolls, and is also given a clean finish with a thin, firmly adhering scale. GIVES RULING ON APPLES IN BARRELS. Attorney General Answers Question Covering Standard Closed Pack- ages. Answering the request of State Dairy and Food Commissioner F. H. Stadt- mueller for an opinion, Attorney Gen- eral George E. Hinman has found that chapter 181 of the public acts of 1915 does not prohibit the use of packages, for the packing and sale of apples, of the same size of the standard closed package, when the package is not branded or sold as a standard closed package. Commissioner Stadtmueller proposed the following exampl If a flour barrel of the same di- mensions as the barrel prescribed by section 3 for a standard closed pack- age be filled with apples, closed, but not branded, and offered for sale merely as a barrel of apj does the person offering the same for sale vio- late said chapter 181, if the apples packed in the barrel fail to conform to the provisions of said act?™ Mr. Hinman decided that the pur- pose of the chapter is to provide a standard of packages. and grades which, when eold, or offered for sale, course, Norwich people know how well prepared we are to meet the demands of all who are looking for -the correct styles, colorings and fabrics in Fall Merchan- dise, and we want visitors to appreciate this fact also.
