Curtis Morgan, represent-. ing the accused, Judge Coit Wednes- day morning found John Mock, James Rowley and James Sullivan gufity of breach of the peace, and assessed fines of $20 each in the New London police ,court. Charges against John Newcomb and Daniel Devine, who fig- ured in connection with the drrests at the Mechanics club, 5 Bradley street, at an early hour Sunday morning, were nolled, at the suggestion of -Pros- ecuting Attorney Daniel M. Cronin. The trouble followed a {otitical dis- cussion of the merits and demerits of Secretary of the Navy Josephus Dan- iels, who some of those present thought had made a grievious mis- take when he put into effect the rul- ing that nothing stronger than grape juice should be permitted in the navy lockers. The arsument became more heated as the facts in the case were delved into and reached a climax when Dew- ey Devine was ejected from the club room and thrown down stairs because of his opposition to the popular view of the matter. Daniel Devine went to the assistance of Dewey and he, too, was set upon by the others and eject- ed. John Newcomb, a steward of the club, in the meantime sent a call to police headquarters for assistance in quelling the disturbance.

PLAINFIELD RECTOR SPOKE AT HOLY CROSS. Rev. William A. Keefe Urged Students to Forge Ahead. Rev. William A. Keefe of Plainfleld was oné of the principal speakers at the Holy Cross Night cetebration -held at Holy Cross college, Tuesday even- ing. Fr.

Ussher, a medical missionary of the American Board of Foreign Missions, was seriously in- jured in New York Wednesday when he fell while attempting to board a street car. His collar bone and three ribs were broken and his splne was injured, it was said at the hospital to_which he was taken.

He is well known to Norwich people. DEUTSCHLAND IS NOT YET READY TO SAIL ional Carge Was Stored Away in Freighter on Wednesday. The Deutschland is still in Ne London. The additional cargo was being stored away Wednesday morn- ing. Sacks of mail were included in the articles which found their way into the undersea freighter's interior. Up to afternoon no attempt was made to_submerge. That portion of the state steamship terminal occupied by the Eastern For- warding Co. was practically deserted ‘Wednesday morning. There was but a handful of visitors and these did not get much farther than the office door. One motion picture man from New York took a chance and boldly asked Captain Hinsch if he would not have the Deutschland submerge so he could get a picture. The captain told him Jjovially to come around in about three weeks and perhaps he would accem- modate him. Vice President Paul Hilken of the ‘Eastern Forwarding Co. went to New York on the Gilt Edge Tuesday even- ing and was accompanied as far as Bridgeport by Collector of Customs James L. McGovern of the Connecti- cut district. Before boarding the train Collector McGovern sald there was absolutely nothing doing in the way of a manifest of the Deutsch- land’s cargo or of her clearance pa- pers. A merchant is authority for the statement that one of the crew of the Deutschland went to his mmarket and asked the price of butter, saying he would like to take a few pounds home for friends in Germany. When he learned that the price of the best quality was 45 cents a pound, he re- fused to buy, saying he could do bet- ter in the Fatherland, even under war conditions. The submerging tests which took place Tuesday are reported as having been very satisfactory. In the final trial the Deutschland is sald to have disappeared beneath the surface in ten seconds and to have remained under water for an hour. Addi Has Sold Property. The property at No. 53 West Thames stret, owned Dr. E. J. Jones, has been sold through John A. Moran, real estate broker, to John D. Ruhaime, who will occupy it with his family.

Preparing this mixture, though, at home is mussy and troublesome. For 50 cents you can buy at any drug store the ready-to-use preparation, im- proved by the addition of other in- gredients, called “Wyeth’'s Sage and Sulphur Compound.” You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time.
