Berlin, March 27 (By Wireless to Sayville) —“Despatches ~ from Stock- hoim,” says the Overseas News agency, |“quote the Russian newspaper Russ- koye Stovo as announcing that strikes among Russian workingmen are in- creasing and gradually taking the form of terrorism. A large number of workingmen have been arrested in Petrograd munition factories, the newspaper adds, and thirteen working- men were hanged.

One local liveryman, who has more than a score of horses, says that the past two months have been the hard- est winter periods for livery animals that he has experienced.

You have noticed, no doubt, that any cold aggravates nasal catarrh, and the flow of mucous amazes you that such objectionable matter could find lodg- ment in your head. To ignore this catarth when the cold subsides is because it continues to slowly injure the delicate linings of the nasal passages and clog them up. ‘To correct catarrh, cleanse the nos: trils frequently with a solution of warm water and salt, insert vaseline on re- tiring, and take a spoonful of Scott’s Emulsion after meals for one month. Scott's acts through the blood to feed the tissues, and contains soothing glycerine to check the inflammation and heal the sensitive membranes.

Ambrose L. Moriarty a West Point Graduaté=Funeral of Mrs. William Russell.’ Herbert. Knox Smith of Hartford is to be in the rooms of the Chamber of Commerce this morning at 11 o'clockto interview farmers coming here from various towns to tell something of their experiences in dealing with Boston milk contractors in preparation for the hearing to be held in this city Friday Dbefore representatives of the interstate commerce commission. Today’s meet- ing will be principally to prepare the case as it is to be presented to the government's representatives, who are to hold their only meeting, relative to the milk question, outside of Boston, in this city, they having been induced to come here by Mr. Smith. The farmers who are coming here are expected to be primed with facts and figures rela- tive to cost of milk production, what they have been receiving for their product and relative to what they con- sider improper restrictions or limita- tions on milk shipping facilities. There will not be a large number of farmers present, but they will be representa- tive of different sections of the county and men who are recognized in their communities as leaders in the milk- producing business. ,SILVER TROPHY CUP Presented Putnam High School Team as Champions in Basketball League. The silver trophy cup emblematic ot the champlonship of the Quinebaug Valley Basketball league was present- ed Putnam High school team, as play- ing representatives of the institution and to the school as a whole, by Supt. H. W. Files at the high school build- ing Monday morning. The cup is a beauty and is engraved with the legend of Putnam's victory after a season of strenuous competi- tion and one in which the team lost only one league game, believed to be the best record ever made by a Put- nam High school basketball team. The presentation of the cup foHowed the adjustment of the protest of Kil- lingly High school, which contested for the championship in two post-season games. Added to.the trophies at the high school, the cup was an object of ad- miration Monday, as it will be, and an inspiration, too, for the teams that are to follow through the coming years. A Spring Day—Overhead. Monday was another magnificent spring day—overhead. Monday was & sweet, balmy day—overhead. In fact, it was such a swell day—overhead— that most peopie spent at least a part of their time talking about it—over each other’s heads—but under foot— why, the worst that can be said about it isn't half sufficient. On the high- way between this city and South ‘Woodstock, only four miles away, ten men were engaged during the after- @oon in shoveling a right of way that was expected to finally rediscover the state road, which at present is buried in stretches under three feet of snow and slush. The difficulties of travel over it can be’imagined., Going south, to Daniel¥on, the state road is also submerged. One local man who tried to drive a machine through got as far as the David Clarke place, on the outskirts of this town, and had to return. His powerful machine could not drive its way through the terrible going. Much the same con- ditions prevail on other much traveled reads hereabouts. The advice of au- tomobile owners who have tried the roads to those who have not is ot leave the machines in the garages for a few days more. Then the going is expected to be tolerable. Lieut. A. L. Moriarty a West Pointer. The attention of The Bulletin cor- respondent is called to the fact that this city has a graduate of the United States Military academy at West Point in the person of Lieut. Ambrose I Moriarty, U. S. A, it having been stated that Putnam was without such a representative. Lieutenant Moriarty is an invalid, and has been for a long term of years, He makes his home in this city and through all his vears of enforced in- activity has kept in touch with the af- fairs of the world, his brilliant intel- lect not being affected by the pecullar ailment that keeps him in an invalid's chair. Mr. Moriarty studied in the schools of Putnam, entered West Point after competitive examination and eventual- ly was graduated and assigned to the cavalry branch of the service. FUNERAL. Mrs, William Russell. Funeral services for Mrs. Harrlet Underwood Russell, widow of William Russell, were held at her home in South Woodstock Monday afternoon, Rev. C. J. Harriman of this city con- ducting he service, which was attend- ed by relatives and friends from this city, Danielson and other places in this vicinity Burial was at Wabba- quaset.

Now employed in a local mill, he was only a vefy few years since discharged from the French army, having com- pleted his term of service, nearly all of which was spent as a soldier of the Verdun garrison. He is supremely confident that the fortress cannot be taken. His confi- dence is based not only on the negli- gible successes achieved after such tremendous effort, but as well on his intimate knowledge of the fortifica- tions vet to be approached. Not a map of the scores that have been printed in various periodicals, in Eng- lish and French, contains anywhere near a complete list of forts, he says. He witnessed and assisted at the con- struction of numerous forts, the ex- istence of which was not even known to French army officers prior to the out- break of the war. His descriptions of these secretly butlt nfz‘f are intensely interesting. They are approached by underground tunnels. One might stand directly over one, or any one, of them and be- lieve himself distant from any defen- sive work. But the turn of a wheel deep down in the bowels of the earth would force up through the earth crust on which he stood a great metal square, or cover, and close behind it would follow powerful batteries in- stantly ready to rain death and de- struction on any attacking force. None of these forts are shown on any pub- lished may, the narrator #hys, but they are there—deep-sunken, of con- crete, modern and splendidiy equip- ped with guns. These are amonz the inner defences and they were bullt with the greatest secrecy. Verdun will not be easy to take, one may imagine after hearing his de- sériptions.
