It certainly was a relief on Thurs day to the traveling public to be able to get aboard a Shore Line trolley that was on time and be assured of reaching one's destination on schgd- ule. The past two davs under the rile which prohibited motormen from mak- ing up lost time have been nightmares to both the pubiic and the men op- erating _the cars. On Thursday the company modified the rule and now it is left to the dis- cretion of the motormen to make up as much time as can be made safe- iv without endangerong the live: of the passengers. Of course the mo- torman is not supposed to race his car down hill or around curves but may increase his speed on the straight stretches where it is perfectly safe. The company has made another ar- rangement for the accommodation of its patrons. On Sunday an early car leaving Norwich at 5.45 o'clock will be run to New London so that those desiring to take the government transport to the island forts where the local boys are stationed may have plenty of time to catch the boat.

Belgian Consul General Makes Offer of 66 2-3 Per Cent. in Behalf of His Government. Tt became known in this city on Thursday that Plerre Mali, Delgian counsel general, New York. acting for and in behalf of the Belgian govern- ment, has offered to purchase creditors claims against the Hopkins and Allen Arms ‘Company, of Norwich, paving for such claims'66 2-3 per cent. of the mount claimed. The purchase and payment are, lyawever, .subject to the agreement be- tveen the Belgian government and the Marlin-Rockwell Corporation for the completion of the unfinished portion of a contract dated August 4, 1915, he- iween the H. and A. Company and Pierre Mali and Rene Lewniilo ing foy and in behalf of the Fe government, becoming effective through thg transfer to the Marlin- Rockwell Corporation of the Norwich plant of the H. and A. company. Payment of the 66 2-3 per cent. is to be made within ten transfer of the plant to the Marlin people, and upon assignment to Mr. Mali or his nominee of the claims against the H. and A. company. With reference to the Hopkins & Allen activities, the New Haven Union on Thursday said 2 Application was made to Judge Thomas in tha U. S. district court in this city today by the receivers of the Hopkins & Allen Arms company of Norwich for an order of sale of the property. They state that up to the time of their zppointment as receivers the. company was engaged in the pro- duction of Belgian Mauser rifles un- der a contract with the Belgian go ernment whicl contracted for 150,000 rifles at $27 each. The receivers eay that any sale of the property would be subject to the mortzages of $3,850.000. No purchaser of the company equity can be found except one who by agreement with the represeniatives of the Belgian gov- ernment will undertake to complete the rifles. Pierre Mail represants that he has made such agreemen: with the Marlin-Rockwell corporation of New York and proposals are being made for the purchase of the company’s claims and for the assumption of all contracts. Judze Thomas set Sept. 1 as the time for a hearing in Hartford of the peti- tion for the proposed sale. The Berthier machine gun. which 1s made by the Hopkins & Ailen Arms company has passed its final test suc. cessfully and it is strongly recom mended for use in the naval service because of its simplicity. On Aug. 9 a test was made of ths there remain many more to be finish- ed. The cement between the car tracks has also been laid. Sun at Quantice, Va. Improvements have been added from time to time since the gun was first tested for the days after the | ordnance department of the navy at Winthrop, Md., in March, The gun was tested by the joint army and navy board at Springfield, Mass., in and was rated after the Lewis Since that the May and Browning (light type). test changes have boen made in ejector, in the extractor, in the f= of the 'bolt, in the location of the gas port, and a new cooling device pat- ented by Hookham has been install- ed. The gun is now a very satisfac- tory, light tvpe machine gun, an offi- cial says. Its mechanism is the simplest of any gun known to those who have tested many malkes and the new cool- ing process does away with the ne- cessity of having to change the bar- rel in action. It is probable that with the cooling as it is at present the Lewis coolifig device is superior, but the mechanism of this gun is much simpier than the Lewis, says one re- port. The most perfect gun of the light type that could be turned out would be a combination of the Berthier gun with the Lewis cooling device. This statement is made with a full under- standing of the desirability of ihe Lewis flat_magazine, but the simpiic- ity to the Berthier gun would counter- balance the undesirability of the ver tical top feed magazine. The differ ence in cost between the Lewis mas azine and the Berthier s all in favor of the latter. The Berthier system of feed does away with an intricate feed mechanism, which the Lewis re- quires. The Berthier gun, as tested, weigh- ed 20 pounds. It was gcod for a burst of 500 rounds without difficulty. A minor change in the character of the radiator casing would improve the cooling device. By the use of different type cool- ing devices the Berthier gun could be made to range in durability of barrel life from that of the Lewis gun to that of the lightest automatic rifle. If_sufficient radiator mass should be added to the Hookham cooling device to equal the welzht of the Lewis cool- ing device there would be very little difference in the durability of the bar rels between the Lewis and the Der- thier gun. This should not inerga the present 20 pound gun to nfore than 22 pounds of this gun Owing to the simplic it is strons ommended for use of the naval service, especially for the use of the line of the navy for land- ing The marine corps ls th Lewis guns, which are a very satisfactory weapon, but the marine corps is also organized into machine gun companies -and all men handling machine guns are trained to their use almost exclusively. This is not a fact in the line of the navy, and a simple zun like the Berthier would be remend improvement over any gun that they are now handling. The gun e no difficalt manu- facturing proposition and should be turned out very re e rate. WEDDING. Lord—Preston.

Al Sways ask for and get the genuine that it may be ascertained what ani- mals or persons have, or mav have been, in contact with the rabid dog. All dogs and cats bitten by a rabid dog should be immediately killed. Fifth, 1hat names of all pacsons bit- ten by a rabid dog or cat be reported to the health officer so that he may advise the first selectman to provide proper Pasteur treatment in a reason- the bilis for the same to tho state able be s ‘manner, approved and surer. xth, in view of the fact that many dogs affected with rabies and running .wild are unregistered and therefore cannot e traced, it is urged that the health officers uge their influence to- wards securing the complete registra- tion of dogs within their jurisdiction and also to insist as a health measuro paid by that the officials responsible for the enforcement of muzzling arnd quaran- tining orders perform their duties thoroughly. It Js Loped that the department of heaith, in formulating its sanitary code, wiil incorporate the requirement that all dog and cat bites be reported by the attending physicians to the health officer. Had a regulation of this nature been in force this summer, one of the three deaths referred to bove might have been prevented, There are in Connecticut approxi- mately 72,000 registered dogs. The damage paid by the state treasurer on dog accounts, including amounts for Pasteur treatments, for the ending April 1, 1917, approximated $11.500. From an economic point of View and from the standpoint of the ervation of food supplies, it seems justify the existence of impossible to this number of dogs.
