WESTERLY PROBATE COURT BUSINESS Guardians of Persons and Estates of Minor Children of the Late Francis Waller Named—Effort to Arbitrate Labor Troubles at Moore Plant—Town Meeting Thursday Evening. Judge Baward M. Burke in the West- erly probate .court Tuesday afternoon gave consideration to the estates of Frances Waller anq Mary J. Waller, minor children, and Hannah P. Waller, widow of Francis Waller, who was fa- telly injured by being struck by an au- tomobile. A petition was presented asking for the appointment of Fred- erick “A. Allen of Providence, brother of Mrs. Waller, as_guardian of the persons and the Washington Trust company as guardian of the estates. Judge Burke granted the petition and fixed the bond of the Washington Trust company at $1,000 and the bond of Mr. Allen at $600. Eugene B. Pendleton, guardian aq litem of the Waller chil- dren, made no objection to the pro- ceeding. Mr. Pendleton was appointed appraiser of the estates. The Wash- ington Trust company was directed to pay to the guardian of Mrs. Waller and her two children, for their main- tenance and support, the sum of $16 a month, $8 a month from the estate of Mrs. Waller and $4 from the estate of the two children. Mrs. Clara Carter Hyatt, adminis- tratrix of the estate of her mother, C Hunter Stanton, and the only heir-at-law, filed with the clerk of the court all claims against the estate as satisfied and paid, and also a general release from herself individually to herself as administratrix of the estate. The release was ordered filed with the te. Mrs. Stanton was a cottage tch Hill and died from injuries received while in an automo- bile by being struck with a trolley car at the Wequetequock crossing. Mrs. Anne Burnett, who was with Mrs. Stanton, also’ died from injuries re- ceived at the sanfe time. Cornelius Farrell was also injured, but not fatal- ly. The administratrix, through her attorney, Samuel H. Davis, settled a claim of Attorney A. B. Crafts for $500 against the estate of Mrs. Stanton for $50. James Jolly, administrator of the es- tate of Andrew M. Clark, was author- ized to sell at private sale a passbook of the Mechanics’ Savings bank, which the court valued at $1.50. This sale was necessary in order that the ad- ministrator could make a report of the final account of the estate. An effort is being made to arbitrate the labor disturbance at the George C. Moore plant by three disinterested citi- zens of Westerly as the board of arbi- tration. The proposition comes from the strikers and will be submitted to Mr. Moore. It is understood that Mr. Moore declines to treat with his disaf- fected former employes as an organiza- tion to reach a settlement, but is ready to act with them individually. It is also said that the strikers do not in- t that the Moore plant be classed as ctly union, the strikers being will- ing to give and take on that point. The itter of arbitration by that plan ma eolve the difficulty. The oft postponed town meeting is scheduled for Thursday of the present week and was called chiefly to con- sider the improvement of the bad con- dition of the Watch Hill road, and perhaps_its rebuilding in permanent form. The Board of Trade has had road building explained by two ex- perts, and the highway committee of the Westerly town council has been busy collecting data in relation to the proposed work, which will be explain- ed in town meeti As eide issues there has been placed in the call a proposition asking for a_ reduction in the charges for zas and electricity, and another for a reduction in water rates.

An important duty that devolves on parents is the regulation of their chil- dren’s bowels. Health in later life de- pends in large measure on early train- ing and a child should be taught from infancy to regular habits. ‘When from any cause the bowel be- comes congested with stomach waste a mild laxative should be employed to open up the passage gently and carry off the congested mass. A most effec- tive remedy for this purpose is the combination of simple laxative herbs known as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. Mrs., W. D. Bullg, of Reed, Okla., used Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin for he: baby boy, Harley Buren Bulls, and says | m more good than anythi we have given him. His bowels ar very stubborn about acting, but th act easily every time I give him Dr. Calawell’s Syrup Pepsin.” Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin contains no opiate or narcotic drug and ig a splendid remedy for children and older people as well.
