Sargol, too, mixes with your food, to prepare it for "the blood in an easily assimilated form. Thin people tell how they have gained all the way from 10 to 25 pounds a month while taking Sargol and say that the new flesh stays put. Sargol tablets are a careful combination of six of the best assimilative elements known to chemistry. They come 40 tablets to a package, are pleasant, harmlcssvand in- expensive, and Lee & Osgood, Norwich, Chesbro’s Drug Store, Willimantic, and all other good druggists in this vicinity sell them subject to an absolute guar- antee of welght increase or money back as found in ery large packag TAFTVILLE Installing Machinery at Ponemah Mills—$123.60 for Benefit of Church Organ—Personals and Notes.

Chief Bielaski of the bureau of in- vestigation heard from his agents in New Orleans and New York that Diaz left tkis country. Mr. Bielaski was advised that, Diaa had prepared a proclamation for dis- tribution in Mexico and the United States announcing his reasons for be- ginning a new revolution, l‘nclndln‘ “the cause of humanity and justice.” The proclamaation, agents reported, is ot be issued tomorrow or Wednes- nesday. Two reports as to how Diaz left the United States were current. Accord- Ing to one he went by train to Los Angeles apd then into Mexico; ac- cording to another he sailed from New { Orleans as a passenger on a steamer that left there several days ago. The department, although uncertain which Is correct, believes Diaz went virtually alone and made no effort to take an armed expedition with him. DIAZ LEFT NEW ORLEANS LAST FRIDAY. Accompanled by Lee Chmistmas Os- tensibly Bound For Cuba. New Orleans, Feb. 28.—Information obtained from Mexican sources here today was that Felix Diaz left New Orleans by train last Friday for Key West, to take a steamer for Cuba. It was sald he was accompanied by Lee Christmas, American “soldier of for- tune,” who has been identifiled with a number of revolutjonary movements in Mexico and Latin-American repub- lics and who had been here several weeks. The passenger lists of steamers safl- ing from here' within the last ten days do not contain Diaz's name or Chrimt- mass’ names. Federal authorities sald they had an idea of Diaz’s whereabouts but declined to disclose their information. MOTION DAY LIST IN COMMON PLEAS.

WATERFORD MAN HELD. Robert Odgers Will Face Superior Court on Cruelty Charge. in; Robert Odgers of Waterford, who, it is alleged, cut three inches from a horse’s tongue, was arraigned before Justice Peter Taylor at Quaker Hill Saturday evening on the charge of cru- elty to animals. Justice Taylor found | probable cause and held Odgers for the May criminal term of the superior court. Bond was fixed at $500 and In { default Odgers went to jail. Attorney John J. Lawless of New London prosecuted. Odgers was not represented by counsel. He refused the offer of the court, saying he didn't want a lawyer. James Brigham of Waterford, em- ployer of Odgers at the time of the al- jleged offense, testified to the injury to his horse and of hearing Odgers tell that he had dome it. The horse | had balked anq Odgers had tied a half thitch around the horse’s mouth and pulled so viciously that the end of the tongue had been severed. TO WORK FOR APPROPRIATION. Congressman Freeman Wants New Project in Rivers and Harbors Bill. Congreesman Richard P. Freeman, who has returned to Washington after a business visit to Connecticut, says he is determined to secure an appropria- tion sufficient to carry out the proposed improvement at New London. The congressman intends to fight for that project. Representative Freeman says that inasmuch as the house committee on rivers and harbors has departed from its declared intention of not reporting in favor of any new projects in the proposed harbor and river bill, he shall offer an amendment to the bill appropriating sufficient money to car- ry_out the proposed work. If the committee declines to include his amendment, Congressman Freeman will offer it on the floor of the house when the bill comes up for considera tion. FREIGHT CONDUCTOR DIES FROM FRACTURED SKULL Fell From Rear Step of Locomotive on Bridge South of Groton Station | While riding home on the rear step of a locomotive, James F.

St. Thom- as, en route from Honolulu to Manila, Second Lieut. Cecil G. Young wrote his mother, Mrs. Lilllan Young, of Norwich, the following interesting let- ter: I came upon deck and far in the distance saw the mountain islands of Hawail. They are much larger than you get any idea of from a map and the i2ands stretch out for many miles. As you approach Oahn the island seems to run right up out of the sea till its peaks reach the clouds. There is always a mist hanging on the high- est peaks. It is called “Liguid Sun- shine” and often drifts down near the plains. It took us six hours after seeing the land before we got to our port. There was no sign of it even then till about one hour before we got in as a big extinct crater shaped like a huge punch bowl cut off all view of Honolulu till we got around it. The U. S. S. Maryland, bringing the pontoons from San Francisco to raise the submarine F-4 followed in directly after us; the place where the submarine went down was marked by two black buoys on our left as we went in. It made one realize the tragedy more when looking at those two black markers. To think that underneath there was a submarine with 28 men who never got out. Sights of Honolulu. Honolulu lies in a plain surrounded on all sides by a chain of steep vol- canic peaks. As the ship approached the wharf Kennakl boys swam out to dive and get any money thrown over- board. We finally got tled up and a large number of people awaited us on the wharf carried off various hus- bands, wives, etc., etc. Surf-riding at Waikikl. Thursday afternoon I went down to Waikiki and went in swimming. This is where the famous surf riding is done. You get a board about 4 feet long and 2 feet wide and (if you are a native kanaki) you can come in riding on it at rallroad speed on the crest of a big wave. But no Ameri- can can do it. Thursday night we all put on white uniforms and attended a ball at the Alexander Youngs hotel (the biggest in Honolulu) on the roof garden. Sight-seeing by Automobile. Friday afternoon a party of us took an automobile trip over part of this island Oahn, going by beautiful bun- galows surrounded by all sorts of strange trees and flowers of all col- ors. We took a road which twisted and wound up one of the volcanic mountains till we reached a place called “the Pole” From here you could look far out over a valley below to_the indigo blue water of the Pa- cific. On both sfdes of this valley the rough peaks shot up. Some of their tops hung around with mist. Pali is Hawaiian for precipice, because the place where we were was at the top of a 1000 foot drop, a stone wall at the edge of the road being the only barrier. The wind blew there con- stantly in gusts which would almost turn you over. It is a historical place also, as two Hawallan chieftains had a big bat- tle there in which the fighters of King Kamehaha pushed all the opposing troops off over the precipice. We fi- nally left here, descending on another road and passed by miles of guavos growing wild banana_trees, off which | we picked some and fleld after field of pineapples. Pineapples Abundant. Pineapples grow in the ground. I found out. You can get all you want at 3 for 10 cents, delicious and sweet. We passed many Japanese and Chi- nese farmers. They dress just as in their own country. The woman, es- pecially the Japanese, wear all sorts of bright colored kimonas, with san- dals, etc, and carry their children around on their backs. We passed some of their rice patties, on which they were working in about two inches of water. We took pictures at various places which I will get de- veloped and printed as soon as I get a chance. We came back to the ship, put on white and went out to a place called Heinis, a pretty place on Wai- kiki beach. There we had dinner with a Hawailan orchestra playing, and the surf breaking right alongside us. Met Pretty Girls. We had three of the nicest girls T have met in army circles so far. One of them has lived in Virginia all her life practically, and has the Virginia drawl, which having one heard you would like to listen to as long as they will talk. Her sister, who was there, has it a little, is pretty and an interesting companion. The other one, Miss Frank, 1s pretty and very clever. A captain and my two roommates were there also. After dinner we danced: Visited Old Voicano. Saturday morning we took another trip up an old volcano side and Hono- lulu was spread out before us. It was a wonderful view. We came back down by prickly pear trees, sugar cane, lemon trees and dozens of plants and trees in bloom, of which I don't know the name. We went to the aquarium, & place where in tanks with glass sides they kept specimens of the fish that live in these waters, and such fish you never dreamed of—col- ored, indigo blue, scarlet, deep yel- low, striped and spotted in all com- bination of colors. You would almost think somebody must have taken a brush and painted them, the combi- nations were so startling and bril- liant. Tmagine for instance a tank full of deep blue colored fish with yellow dots on them, swimming around, or a bright yellow a rainbow-cdioved Tuesday, Feb. 29th-Pro , Mint of Time has coined for us an extra day in 1916—TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 29th—PROS| of the United States will become millions of dollars richer on account of the extra is day the hours of time.

Saw Queen Lil's Palace. We saw the palace of the former Queen Lil On another of these islands there is a real volcano with a live crater and molten lava, but it takes a day to get there from here, so we had to miss that.- Saturday afternoon for the second time we made our departure with an- other crowd saying goodbye. Whenever a ship leaves Honolulu everybody buys big ropes made of flowers, roses, chrysanthemums, etc., etc., sold by Hawaiian women, . and hangs them around their necks. So most everyone had these chains of ev- ery color ‘of sweet smelling flowers hung on them. As the ship elips out you throw them overboard to the friends you leave behind. It is sup- posed to be bad luck if you don’t throw the last one over before sunset. So now we are on our way for 12 days till Guam is reached. Pleasant Companions. There is a fine crowd on board. My captain is good natured and good all round. So many people got off at Hon- olulu that they moved us from the wireless tower into regular staterooms. French and I are in one and Johnson is in another with somebody else. I am satisfied with that, as Johnson is a little important. I think maybe be- cause he is a West Point graduate, and thinks he is so experienced. He was very hurt in Honolulu because I would not change a tour I had as officer of the deck on Friday morning with his on Friday afternoon. ‘While in port we have tours of four hours each as officer of the deck In rotation, during which we had to stay on board and check the troops coming off and on. Lost a Day. ‘We crossed the 180 degree meridian two nights ago, thereby losing the 19th of August, as at the 180 degree merid- ian going west you skip a day. So we jumped from Wednesday to Friday. Going east it stays the same day for two days when crossing. Every two or three days there is a dance on board at night, and we have a fine Filipino orchestra that plays. Two days out of Honolulu one of the girls, daughter of Colonel Shanks, had a birthday party with a cake, etc., and last night another girl had one with a dance, etc. We have a lively crowd which certainly keeps things moving. Enclosed are some pictures of the crowd taken on board the transport. Three of them got off at Honolulu and | a new girl got on there, Miss Lilah McDonald. She received at the boat 23 bunches of roses, etc.,, and 10 boxes of candy. Already Nicknamed. The meal service is keeping up as good as ever, with every imaginable thing to eat. I have acquireq the nickname Brigham, being named after the famous Brigham Young of many wives. Aug. 29th (Sunday here)—Yes- terday afternoon at 5 p. m. we left Guam. On Thursday morning we first sighted land, the island of Pota, which is one of this group of Ladrome or Mariana islands. Pota belonged to Germany before the war started, but Japan seized it and is keeping it in spite of the protests of the United States. Sixty miles beyond Pota we came to Guam, ‘which is an island about 40 miles long, with 12,000 natives living on it. All these islands are the tops of ome volcanic upheaval and are surrounded by coral reefs. This is the real tropics here. We came into a harbor and anchored about two miles away from a couple of little towns called Piti and Sumay. The island rose all around in cliffs about 100 feet high, these completely covered with dense jungle and palm trees. Visit from Medical Inspector. We were boarded by a medical officer and that night a big party of us went ashore at Piti by launch (there are no wharves or landing places for big ships). From Piti we went by auto- mobile to Argana, five miles distant, which is the capital of this island, and attended a dance there by the gover- nor general, navy and marine officers. The next day we took a daylight trip over the same road. It seemed all unreal, the scene was Fat Baby Boy Raw and Blistered—Healed by POWDER Hereis Proof and Nurse’s Letter: 2 Nuree Dudley, of Buffalo, N.Y.. seys, Every nurse and mother should now how gekl& Sykes Comfort Powder e skin. ~ After all other rere- s failed it healed the raw, blistercd skin of a fat baby boy.”’ This e he , 8ooth- is because of the healing, g‘l‘g medication combined and Sykes Comfort not in any other —— Almnfl.

They are not overdressed either! Their means of travel are caribous, or water buffaloes, with little carts, the wheels made of one piece of wood, with a hole in it for the axle. There were hundreds of cocoanut palms, banana trees and other tropical vegetation. Governor General’'s Reception. The next day the governor general gave a reception for us. The water is wonderfully clear and you can see far down into it. I went in swimming one morning, some men in the company rowing the boat out to a good place. Theer are 40 marines here and a few navy officers. The governor gen- eral is a navy officer. There are not more than 60 white poeple all together outside of the marines; the rest are the small size natives. A German cruiser, the Cormoran, is interned here, being chased by Japanese cruisers here. The monthly visit of an army transport is the only way they get mail and supplies here. Water Five Miles Deep. South of Guam the water is five miles deep. In Argana there is a Cath- olic church which has been worked on for 300 years. We were not sorry to leave Guam, as it was so hot anchored out; five more days to Manila now. Sept. 1—Tomorrow morning we will see land again, the eastern ehores of the Philippine Islands. Then through the San Bernardino Straits south of the island of Luzon we will go west and then north a distance till ave get off Corregidor, then by Corregldor to Manila, about the afternoon of Sept. 2d. Reaching Philippines. We have not had any news at all since about Aug. 18th, so all sorts of things could have happened. Sept. 1—Today we have been twist- ing and turning around among various Philippine Islands. I saw the two high- est volcanoes in'the Philippines, Mt. Bulascan and Mt. Mayon. Mt. Mayon is shaped like a perfect cone and its peak was so high that it was far above the clouds. In 1900 this volcano broke loose and ruined two towns and killed 300 people. We are now (10 o'clock in the evening) in the China sea and expect to get to Manila about 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon. As this letter has American stamps it will have to be mailed on board ship to use them; so I will close this leter and start another. I expect to be busy all tomorrow morning. The weather is fine here, cool breeze blowing ever a strong, since we struck the islands. Fort Dade was far|tempted to do radio work, worse than this is so far, for heat. ISLAND FORTS ARE OF MUCH IMPORTANCE Our Greatest Danger Lies in Attack From an Invading 8ea Force. In the general plan for the strength- ening of the coast defenses of the country, it is probable that much will be done at the forts In this artillery district of which Fort Wright is head- quarters. In the preparedness talk emphasis is laid on the fact that the greatest danger lles in attack by an invading sea force and the consequent talk is for more adequate coast de- fense and the coast defences of Long Island, guarding, as they do, one ap- proach to New York, are considered of utmost importance. Further light on the war depart- ment's plan for additional coast de- fenses also was obtained when testi- mony of Brig. Gen. William Crozsier, chief of army ordnance, before the fortifications committee became avail- able. The heaviest new fortifications, General Crozier said, will be placed at the mouth of Chesapeake bay, which he described as one of the several places where “fatilities for land op- erations are so good that it is worth while to fortify them especially to pre- vent that operation, notwithstanding that they are not places where inad- missible damage can be done by the suns of a fleet.” At other points, such as Rockaway Beach, N. Y., and San Francisco, he said 16-inch guns mounted in turrets would be added. CHARGED WITH CRUELTY TO A HORSE Alleged That Waterford Man Cut Two Inches Off Animal’'s Tongue. Robert Odgers of Waterford, who has an extensive police record, was arrested Friday afternoon, charged with cruelty to a horse. It is alleged that he cut two inches off the horse's tongue. The offense is alleged to have been committed Jan. 25. Odgers was work- ing for James Brigham, a Waterford farmer, and it is claimed became in- furiated when this horse balked and putting a half hitch on the horse's mouth, pulled until the rope sawed its way through the flesh of the ani- mal's tongue, severing two inches from the end. A few days after the occurrence, Odgers was picked up drunk by the New London police. him $10 and costs and Odgers being unable to pay, went to jail. While he was in jail, news of the cruelty to the horse reached the po- lice. Officer Charles P. Hammond in- vestigated and secured all the details Friday afternoon he arrested Odgers, who has been out of jeil but a_week. Officer Hammond turned Odgers over to Deputy Sheriff M. J. Martin, who had been working on the case. Saturday afternoon Sheriff Martin took Odgers to Waterford. | SIGNAL TROOPS WILL TRY WIRELESS. First Connecticut Field Company Will Abandon Wire Sections. Field company, Signal troops, will | abandon its wire carts and telegraphic apparatus and, outfitting with four field radio station equipments, devote its energies to this new branch of the signal service. Some time ago th company had two sections which a but the rather faulty apparatus provided did not encourage the effort, which was abandoned. Now, however, the newest type wireless equipment is to be sup- plied and a sergeant instructor from the regular army will be specially de- tailed to help the guardsmen. A signal corps company of the wire- less type has one fleld wagon, and four wireless station outfits, each packed on the back of two mules. There is a long, telescopic mast which carries the antennae, a powerful dynamo generator operated by hand and the sending and receiving apparatus, which is neatly and securely packed in a chest. Under favorable conditions a fleld wireless section, with the generator provided, can send distinctly at a distance of 25 miles. Under the best conditions the United States signal troops have sent to an even further radius. Judge Coft fined | After April 1 the First Connecticut amateurs to form two sections of the company, the wireless apparatus for one section was shipped to.the armory and set up. The Raria club of Hart- ford held a club meeting there and in- spected the apparatus. The war de- partment suggested that it might be ‘wise to change the entire compaay into a radio company, and the recent re- organization of the company by the present commanding officer, Captain G—eo1 ?e E.
