HOW THE SEAMEN’'S LAW WORKS There have been many illustrations of the manner in which the provis- ions of the LaFollette law concerning seamen operate, and they have in- variably shown that it was a detri- ment to the shipping of this country to have such a law on its statute books. The legislation was enacted for the purpose of helping the seamey and providing greater protection on steamships, but it is found that many of the requirements are entirely un- g;fi!gili.a other night at dinner the blow fell at our house. “No, thank you!” mur- cheese any more! 8ot bacteria in it!” “I reminded her that she had eaten it all her life and still lived, and that bacteria in cheese were really no news to the world. She remained firm. She said that she did not see how any human being could devour any- thing so terrible as dheese. She knew what she was talking about, because she had seen bacteria under the mic- roscope and she thought something ought to be done about it. She com- pleted her argument by asserting that one square inch of cheese contained one thousand billion more or less bac- teria.

This vessel had left its dock and was on its way down the harbor at New York on its way to Burope when the firemen’s demands were pre- sented. The captain was helpless and was forced to anchor his ship and ap- peal to the authorities because of what formerly would have been considered mutiny only to find out that the men were justified in such a course under the seamen's law. This is only what has happened to other ships under like circumstanees, to say nothing of the embarrassment ‘which has been caused to shipping by the difficulty in securing the proper number of men to meet the other pro- visions of the law. Delays of that kind are not only aggravating but un- called for and are particularly dis- tressing at a time when the country suffers from lack of ships to handle its foreign business. In this case the firemen were Spaniards on a British ship, but there have been numerous instances on both coasts where Amer- ican ships have been forced to wait for days and weeks at a time because of this {ll considered legisiation.

Germany places much stress upon being starved into surrender, when it ‘was not long since that the world was :‘um that no such thing was possi- e, Verdun—"“A sinister destiny seems to have selecied Verdun as one of the rocks of history around which the storms of battle between France and Germany -shall rage repeatedly,” says 2 bulletin issued today by the Nation- al Geographic_Soclety, whose head- quarters is in Washington. “It was in this city, for the posses- sion of which the greatest battle in the annals of civilized man has been waged for.weeks, that the treaty was signed which divided the empire of Charlemagne and established the nucleus of Germany as a nation sep- arate from France,” continues the bul- letin. “The Treaty of Verdun was ex- ecuted in the ninth century by the three grandsons of the great emperor. By its provisions the Carolingian do- mains were partitioned, never again to be united under one ruler. That territory lying east of Rhine and in- ciuding Bavaria, Franconia, Thuringia, Eaxony and the districts around Spires, Worms and Mainz fell to the lot of Louts, who very properly is known to history as Louis the German, for he may be considered the real founder of the German empire. Lothair, the eldest son of Louis the Plous, Charle- magne's successor, assumed the title of emperor and secured the kingdom of Italy, together with Lorraine, Prov- ence and Lyonnals. To Charies the Bald, half brother of Louis and Lo- thair, were allotted Aquitania, Neus tria and that part of Spain which had Dbeen wrested from the Moors. To Charles fell the distinction of founding the French dynasty. “But long before this treaty of 843, Verdun was assured a place on his- tory’s page. The basin on the banks of the Meuse was known in the days of the Roman empire as the camp of Virodunum. It was destroyed in the barbarian invasions which occurred curing the decadence of the Caesar: and did not recover until the fifth cen- tury. In 502 it was seized by Clovis, who, actuated by religious zeal, en- deavored to subjugate all the non- Christian Frankish princes. “In having become a German city, was the scene of a bitter struggle between the burghers and the bishops of that see, the former finally winning important concession. After the ity had risen to the dignity of a free imperial town, it was captured by the French, in 158! and a hundred years later was formal Iy given to France, in whose posses- sion it has remained, with the ex- ception of the two occasions when it was besieged and conquered by the Teutons. “During the war of 1792 Verdun fell before the Germans after a battle last- ing only a few hours. When the con- querors entered the town they were hospitably received, the city fathers baving sent a group of beautiful young &irls to greet the strangers and to offer them dragees, the confection for which the place was and still is famous.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Plainfield in the Past. Mr. Editor:—A few months ago i heard a man say (speaking of the good old tgwn of Plainfield) ‘I can’t find that Plainfield has much of any his tory; never produced either a presi- dent or a United States senator. Ac- cording to Miss L.s history of Wind- ham county, the most noted man who ever went out from Plainfield was a quack doctor and even his name has been forgotten.” And as I had never read that history carefully I just kept quiet but I could not get the impres- sion from my mind that Rev. H. T. Arnold got some of ghe facts for his history of Plainfield church from that same book, and Rev. Mr. Benedict will be remembered as long as the Bene- dict library stands: and the man who gave that library (Prof. Wm. Kinney) will never be forgotten as long as there is a child graduated from the public schools to try for the Kinney prize. T thought of Rev. Charles Spalding, D. D., of Boston; and I wondered what his brother Frank (who was the idol of his native town 35 years ago) would have said at the suggestion of Plain- field having “no history.” I thought of George J. Corey, a student of the old Academy and a for- mer United States consul to Amster- dam, who has had such a prominent part in making China a modern na- tion. And he told us only last August that the name of Plainfield Academy was well known in that distant land and it must have reached South Amer- ica in the height of its popularity or students would not have come from there. I looked up our war record and I found that Plainfield took part in the old French and Indian War in 1755, and during the long struggle for In- dependence the town did her full share and right royally did Landlord Eaton and his good wife entertain Washing- ton and Lafayette, when they pamssea through Plamnfield and stopped at the o0ld Eaton Tavern. Again in 1812 when England made a second attempt to subdue her lost colonies a regiment of Plainfleld men was sent to the de- fense of New London. In the stirring days of anti-slavery the Burleighs of of Plainfleld took an active part, Charles Burleigh being with Elder Frost of Canterbury and Wm. Llova Garison, when the latter was dragged by the hair of his head in Boston be- cause of his anti-slavery views and his companions did not escape the vio- lence of the mob. During _the great Civil War our “boys in blue” gave us nd cause for shame, a student of Plainefild Acad- emy being among the 335 men who marched up to Fort Hudson, when only 176 survived the march. ~We sent some of our sons to défend our country from Spain and at the pres- ent time a few are at their posts of duty. Among the names of men who have made and enforced the laws of our land I found the name of Judge Daniel W. Bond; also a sketch from the pen of Hon. A. Pavne of Provi- dence, in which (speaking of his school days at Plainfield Academy) he ; tells of Edward A. Bradford, who in | 1844 was a leading lawyer in_New | Orleans, and was nominated by Presi- | dent Fillmore, to fill a vacancy upon | the bench of the Supreme Court of the ; United States and only his whig poli- tics (unpopular in the South in those days) kept his nomination from be- ing confirmed by the senate. He speaks of one of his teachers at the_Academy, James Humphrey, a son of President Humphrey of Amherst College, who finally “fell into congress.

And later Lieuten- ant-Governor George Summer of Con- necticut (son-in-law of Hon. David Gallup) made his home in Plainfield for several vears. Judge Asa Packer. founder of Pack- er University, in Pennsylvania, and sole owner and builder of the L. V. R.AR, left Packerville one morning in the early 30's with all his worldly possessions on his back and nine pence in his pocket. His pants were torn by a dog below Plainfleld and he went to bed while the mother of the late Charles Harrison, Sr., mended them. He tramped to Pennsylvania and worked a year for $100, was cheated out of the money and made to take land for pay. On that land he struck ofl and became one of the first “oil kings.” ‘When Prudence Crandall was in jail because of her colored school in Canterbury, Charles Burleigh and Rev. Levi Kneeland rode horseback to Mystic to Capt. Dan Packer and he got_her free. She told a Plainfield man who visited her at Elk Falls just before her death that her first church welcome after her- trouble was at the old Quaker meeting house at Black Hill: next at the Baptist church at Packer, both in the town of Plainfleld. The greatest machine builder at the time of his death was Wm. Marvin, builder of looms and mules, Taunton, Mass. He was bound out fo Packer 2nd Lester in the Plainfleld end of Packer in 1837 at $1.16 per week (and the original paper is in the hands of a Plainfield man). He built his first loom in the old stone building called the “wash house” at Packerville; also his firet mule model. A boyhood friend of “Bill” Mason and the late B. A. Packer, son of the founder of Packerville, was Galusha A. Grove. Both Enstford and Voluntown claim to be his birthplace, but the records do not show. He worked in Packer for $450 per week, boarded himself and slept upstairs in_the old stone wash house. Afterwards he was very close to President Lincoln and a congress- man from Pennsylvania for 30 vears. Then I glanced at the musical publi- cation and saw the name of Charles Bawin Prior, composer; also that of Fred Farland the banjo plaver (both Moosup boys) and my thoughts went back to the days when “All Ready, Mr. Cady!” was as common as “God Love the Queen!” T looked over a coMéction of poems from the pens of Charles H. Burlergn and Fannie Phipps Clark, and a book of ,travels by Henry P. Robinson; read a short story by the well-known au- thor George Weston (the scences and characters being decidedly local) and ended up with a newspaper article by C. B. Montgomery. Then I fell asleep and dreamed that some lady had blundered and slipped a volume of fiction “Stories of Plain- fleld, Ekonk, Tadpole, Moosup and Deckerville” into a binding _intended for Miss L’s History of Windham County—hence my friend’s mistake.

How a machine gun was forced to desert the German army is recounted in the story of the heroism of a six- teen-year-old Italian volunteer in the Russian army—Constantine Zepolli— whose part as the leading figure in the episode earned one of the two St. Georges crosses he has won. Overhearing his commander ex- pressing a wish that someone “would silence or capture” a gun which was stationd at troublesome proximity to the Russian trenches, Zapolli on his own initiative, crawled on_ his stom- ach for a hundred yards, located the position of the gun, Teturned from the danger zone and conferred with his trench-fellows, and crept forth once more, this time dragging a coil of stout rope. Reaching the gun, he tied one end around it without being dis- covered, and again reached his own lines, with the free end of the rope in his_clutch. Presently the Germans were aston- ished to observe the gun disappearing toward the Russian trenches. It was successfully dragged from their pos- session, a number of Germans being killed in an effort to prevent its de- parture. \ Week-end Letter Telegrams. To aid in communications between English soldiers at the front and_ their people at home, the government has arranged for a system of week-end letter telegrams, which may be ¥ent by the troops abroad or by their triends at home for about one-fourth the ordinary rate. The week-end rate to Egypt will be six cents a word; to Australia, 1 cents; and to South Afri- ca, 15 cents. - The new arrangement does not ap- ply, however, to the men in France and Belginm, who are only allowed to use the mails. The various departments of the Prussian government have issued dé- tailed instructions for the utmost economy of the use of paper in all public offices. Officials are ordered in all possible cases to use small sheets of paper, and also to amend the style of official communications by omitting all unnecessary phraseology.
