Wiilimantic was a wet city Friday. The rain started in late Thursday night and continued all day soaking everything in good shape. The snow is about gone from the streets but plenty of ice remains, making it pret- ty slippery walking. Many cellars and basements were flooded there be- ing a couple of feet of water in the cellar of the opera house building this morning. The rain caused. the snow and ice which has gathered on the roofs of buildings to slide off, some of it coming down In bunches. A number were out with picks and chop- pers getting rid of the ice on the side- ‘walks. There were no sessions at the public schools, the fire alarg ring- Ing at the usual time.

At the local station there was a heated argument Friday morning. Sev- eral traveling selesmen from Hariford en route for Providence missed the 9.52 train and made things lively for a while for the local officials. Upon thefr arrival on the 9.35 from Hart- ford they were informed that the train for Providence would not leave until the Hartfdrd train pulled out.

It makes it difficult for pas- sengers to climb through the train on the first track so the train on the third track is supposed to wait until the other pulls out. These men walt- ed until the Hartford train left and to their surprise the Providence train had gone also. Train Announcer Killoury was as much surprised as they, as he was waiting to announce the leaving of the train. ‘The men turned on Yardmaster Palmer and de- manded an explanation. He seemed to think that it was due to careless- ness on their part that they had been left. However, he did all he could to straighten out matters and help them to their destinations. Most of them were bound for Providence and had to wait for the 12.14 going by way of Blackstone. One man was zoing to Lisbon and was to drive from there to Glasgo, a team having been engaged to meet the 9.52 train. Anoth- er said that he had used mileage for a number of years but this time he had bought a ticket.

PLAINFIELD Players of Loyal Livingstone Team Defeat New London Lodge at Nor- wich—Dangerous Crossing of River Before Bridge is Completed. The members of the Loyal Living- stone Lodge team journeyed to Nor- wich last Friday night and won the semi-final from the New London lodge thus playving in the final with Loyal maritan_lodge of Baltic. The 4th ay in March in Norwich. The fol- lowing players represented Living- stone lodge: Wm. H. Ridings, capt., Aibert Hilton, John Bottomley, James Royle, Arthur Royle, Joshua Peterson, Andrew Peterson, Fred Levin, Thos. Rhodes, Thos. Cooper, Wm. Judson, Wm. Hassler. The score was 12-0. Friday's rain storm made walking very dangerous. The ground is_cov ered with a solid sheet of ice. Near! all of the snow was washed away but the ice did not melt because of the cold, aithough there was a heavy rainfall. Dangerous Way of Crossing River. The pevple of Central Village who live across the river, have been in a bad fix since the bridge near Bragg's mill was torn down last summer. Workmen immediately began work on a new iron bridge and only the ce- ment foundations were completed and work on the bridge was put off until spring. Since then in order to cross the river people had to go over the ratlroad trestle or to go around by the state road. Many small school children cross over by means of this trestle and it is very dangerous for a child to do. Many mothers will be glad when the bridge is completed as it will take a deal of worry off their minds. Lee Norman of Taftville was a visi- tor here Friday. Dancing, Bijou, Jewett City, tonight.

Trying to Delve Into Past Life of Mrs. Eaton, the Complainant. Chicago, Feb. 25. — Frequent clashes between counsel for the accuser and accused marked today’'s hearings before the clvil service commission on Mrs. Page Waller Eaton’s charge that she was compelled to divide her with her Superior officer, Mrs. Louise E. Osborne Rowe, head of the city de- partment of public welfare. At one stage of the hearing Mrs. Rowe's attorney, while questioning Mrs. Eaton, touched on her acquaint- | ance with the late Dwight M. Sabin, former United States senator from Minnesota, and insisted that he be permitted to question the witness at length. Secretary Moore Steadman, Mrs. Eaton’s attorney, protested that the incidents were not germane to the in- vestigation, and declared that if the past was to be delved into he would insist on a complete inquiry which would include others besides his client. Mrs. Sabin, who had been summoned as a witness, did not take the stand. She sald she knew nothing about either Mrs. Eaton or Mrs. Rowe. ‘The Sabin incident was passed with- out further comment. . CLOSING EESSION NATIONAL EDUCATION ASSOCIATION. Superintendents Opposed to Compul- sory Military Training in Schools. Detroit, Mich., Feb. 25.—The depart- ment of superintendence of the Na- tional Education association, at its closing session here today, went on record as opposed to compulsory mili- tary training in the public schools. The educators, however, favored a plan whereby the “American youth” who wishes to receive military instruction can find special schools available. The action of the department was generally regarded as a compromise. It was said that although there were many advocates of a strong national system of preparedness, as well as many opponents of such an organiza- tion, the most generally accepted view was to keep militarism out of the graded high schools. Most of the dele- gates, it was sald, favored the special military school plan. AMBASSADOR MORGENTHAU TALKS WITH PRESIDENT.

They said it not only would be obliged to make certain experiments before un- | dertaking o construct undersea boats | of such proportions. Naval officials now are considering the question of recommending to con- gress a modification in the law to permit them to award contracts for a smaler type of vessel which mizht be built more quickly.

There is hardly a druggist but can you of many well known people in his ‘city who this remedy has restored to health, often after they have tried many other methods of treatment with little or no benefit. We really believe no other dyspepsia remedy has made so large a percentage of cures as Mi-o-na. It is so large that dealers who have sold it for years stand ready to refund the price to any customer whom it does not heip. The best kind of advertising s the praise of a pleased customer, and there are hundreds today praising Mi-o-na because it has done for them what it is advertised to do. A few months ago they could eat nothing without wonder- | ing what the result would be. Since using Mi-o-na they eat what they want | and when they want with no fear of | suffering. This medicine comes in the | form of a_tablet and Is very pleasant | to take.
