New York, Jan. 29.KPersons who ar- | rivea here today from South America Em the steamship Calamares expressed surprise upon learning that Alfredo | Gonzales had been deposed as presic fdent of Costa Rica. Antonio Almar, { { e Costa Rican planter, attributed the isction of the military forces in re- moving the executive partly to their sympathy with the movement of many people of the country to bring about closer relations with the United States. i _*“There are men raising exports who | must have the Tnited States as a mar- {let and believe in having more Inti- { mate relations with the United States,” | Mr. Almar sald. “This General Gon- izalez was opposed- to as he was op- iposed to any friendly relations with [Zorelgn governments. The fact that he has been deposed will have no ef- lm on the country. The people of - F | Costa Rica have never had a revolu- tion nor do they desire ome, for we @0 not believe in the force of arms.” Rubber was first introduced | into { Burope in 1735 as erasers. $171,570 COLLECTED FOR LITHUANIAN RELIEF On November 3, the Day Set Aside by President Wilson for the Purpose.

The entrance to the subway on the east side is to be housed and in conformity with “the - surrounding architecture. With the entrance to the subway closed the frigidity of the waiting room will be ‘materially lessened and this change will be appreciated by patrons. When frost leaves the ground steam pipes will be laid from the heater in the basement of the railway station to the’l west side waiting station, and next winter it will be comfortably heated. Monday noon a freight car of the Shore Line Electric Railway company split a switch at the junction of Main ‘with Broad street. The car was head- ed for the Pawcatuck river bridge and the forward wheéls continued in that direction, but the rea:r wheels turned in the direction of Watch Hill. Within fifteen minutes the wrong was righted apd the passenger traffic was disturbed while the work on the freight car pro- gressed. The accident happened just as all the passenger cars were sched- uled to leave the Railroad avenue ter- minal and all were delayed excent the cars bound to Norwich and Ashaway and all way stations.

In the Congregational church, mext Monday evening, the Young Women's societies of Westerly, will hold a rally similar to that held in Calvary Baptist church last October. Since word has been passed along the line that there are no police ac- commodations for homeless men in acDonald, pastor Westerly a wide berth, It is an open question as:to whether it is ‘the duty of the town council or the highway 4committze to sand the iey sidewalkd in Wescerly, and ‘with the msuaily unsatisfactory result.

The noise of passing raflroad trains, the clatter of mill machinery and the narrowness of the river thickly settied along the banks, does not . prevent swarms of ‘sea gulls coming up the Pawcatuck river daily, almost to the Broad street bridge, which is a sort of feeding ground, the feed being fur- nished by a fish market and three res- taurants. 5 Jennie Louise Blake, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Daniel E. tlake of Ash- away, and Thomas Alitchison Gireve of Westerly, were married Sunday af- ternoon at the home of the -bride's parents, by Rev.

WHAT SCOUTS’ HONOR BADGE STANDS FOR. The Scout Pin Admits to the Compan- ionship of Clean, Decent Boys. One of the first requirements which a Boy Scout must comply with is that he shall know the significance of the scout badge, and in compllance _with this he learns that the trefoil refers to the three points in the scout oath; that the scroll with upturned ends susgests a smile, #r “a scout is cheer- ful” and the knot is. to remind the boy to do “a_good turn daily.” This ‘satisfies the requirements of the test, but it is in fact only a small part of the significance .of the scout badge. It is possible that when the first scout wore the first badge it meant not much more than is stated in the handbook. but with every year, as the movement builds up history and traditions and a record of things ac- complished, the signficance of the scout badge gro Today the boy Who goes to a strange place wearing a scout badge will not depend on chance in selecting his companjons. The scout badge and certificate give an entree to.the com- panionship of scouts; .in other -words, it leads to the companionship of boys who are trustworthy and loyal, who are courteous and clean and revehent— the type of boy with whom any parent is glad to have his boy assoclated. For ori® thing, which is of tremendous im- portance, it means clean. Sundays away from home. Russia has more blind people than the rest of the world, two to onme.

Buckland, vice president and general counsel for the New Haven road, throws important light- on cer- tain of the serious conditions con- fronting the road in an interview with a representative of the New Haven Journal-Courder. He says: “In_view of your recent editorial, The New Haven Management, permit me to state that the New York, New Haven. and Hartford Rallroad Co,-is striving to perform its duty to .the public by giving. adequate transporta- tion of both passengers and freight. “The quantity of freight to be moved, including that offered daily by connecting. lines, and the pressin~ ne- cessity of returninz empty freight cars to_connections under order of the In- terstate Commerce commission to re- lieve the serious car shortage in oth- er parts of the United States, have affected the punctuality of passenger trains. Another point has been the difficulty, now confronting all employ- ers of labor, of obtaininf and ma‘ntain- ing a force of reliable and competent employes and the difficulty cf obtain- ing a regular and uniform supply of fuel coal. The company has, lke its: neighbors, been required to use such coal as it can get, rather than what it would like to have. The lack of both quality and uniformity has seriously impaired the steaming efliciency of its locomotives. | con- | _“One of the great problems fronting tha ent is the rela- ' tive , the movement (i freight or the prompt movement of It 1s necessary that New shall be fed, ~ciothed and ‘warmed and: that- the weekly payrolls shall be met.
