How much more tban the maximum of $1,250,000 has been raised in this city\to help make the world safe for democracy could not be learned on Thursday night but it is considerable and the Liberty Loan committee is thinking serlously of bullding an addition, to the thermome- ter so that the mercury can tell its own story to the patriofic sons and daughters of Norwich. The New Lon- don-Norwich Sign company who built the thermometer have generously con- sented to build an extension and it is possible that this wili be done to- days Although the maximum has now been raised in this city the number of subscribers is much smaller than in the first Liberty Loan campaign and about 1500 more subscriptions are needed in order to reach the number of subscribers obtained in the first campaign. The local committee is looking for an avalanche of $560 sub- scriptions today and tomorrow. Thursday in the Boy Scout cam- paign was a sort of “calm before the storm,” the total subscriptions being only 63 for an amount of $6,550. Many of the boys, however, report many sub- scriptions In sight for . Friday, when the campaign for individual subscrip- tions will close at 9 o'clock. The re- ports are as follows: here.

Joint trials of the suits was started Wednes- day morning. Mrs. Smethurst was on the stand Thursday morning, resuming her testi- mony from Wednesday afternoon. She declared that while her husband had accused her repeatedly of unfaithful- ness, there was no foundation and no truth in the accusation. Although he had threatened her, cursed uer and abused her, there had been no occa- sion for it except His own vile tem- per. He had struck he:r on severgl oc- casions and had frequently ordered her out of the house. She denied that she had ever had any improper relations with femes E. Mann, as alleged by her husbana and said that she had never violated her marriage vows. She said that on the night of Aug. 2 when her husband had testifled that he had gone home and found his wife and Mann in a bedroom, Mann had come to the house lookinwr for her husband.

The Trojan Women of Euripides. The “Trojan Women” of uripides will be given in English at the col- lege gymnasium on Friday and Satur- day evenings. Every possible effort has been been put forth by the faculty and stugent body to make the play a great success and neither time nor money has been sparcd. The members of the cast have been selected from the Greck and Latin department, and have worked untiringly in their e¥orts to make the presentation worthy of the college. Mrs. J. H. Wells, has devoted her time to the training of the mem- bers of the cast, and it is dre to her that the presentation promises to be a very good one. Henry Bill Selden, of the Art degrtment of the college, is supervising and working out the details of lighting, scenery and stage effects. The costumes have been de- signed and stenciled by members of the advanced class in design and are very artistic and praiseworthy. Dr. L. A. Coerne has composed special mu- sic’ for the play and trained the chor- us, which plays so important a part Indians and Germans. How simple, compared to German barbarisms, were the methods of the Indian savage. He did a neat job of scalping and let it go at that—Toledo Blade. in Greek plays.

Hundreds of dollars of damage was done there, the most conspicuous of which was to the : new dike built a year or so ago, and the cinder walk laid along its top. Wearves and boats suffered also and the big nmew diving raft, left in place long after the usual time of the year, was swept from its moorings, taking most of those with it, and carried up Alewife creek mearly to the Appleby cottaga. where the boardwalk ends. A smaller raft and what is left of the high diving structure accompanied it te_this resting place. The highest tide in recent years swept across the lower beach, filling ali the streets and lots over two feet Ceep in water. People returning late | vellow pussy willow taffeta and ocar- in the afternoon to the 13 cottages in tkat section still occupied had to wade to reach their doors. The only path above water was the boardwalk on the beach front, and waves occasionally dashed, over that in some places. The “dike was completely hiaden by the high waters and as they receded they carried off the entire dike struc- ture and filling behind it for a distance of about 25 feet at the end of Bast- erly place and for a smaller stretch near the end of Ocean View place. The slabs of bog turf used as a facing for the dike floated off in chunks from all along the dike and the big clods are scattered along the length of Bentley avenue and the cross streets. in the lots and dooryards and even in base- ments of cottages where open doors allowed the debris to float in. Beard walks, garbage receptacles and miscellaneous rubbish strew. the colony from one end to the other, and anyone minus a garbage can is liable te find it an eighth of a mile away. One cottager's galvanized iron swiil container obligingly cruised about and finally partly climbed the stairs of his | cottage so it could be reached without ‘the owner wetting his feet. About a house recently shingled were scattered all the old shingles the carpenters removed. These were taken away in their entirety and the lot cleaned up better than a hired man would have done it. The shingles are scattered here and there or gathered in heaps in neighboring lots. 5 On the beach front proper the dam- ze was less than might have been ex- Pected. Many planks were loosened from the public wharf and the landing platform on one side of it was heaved six inches out of level. Judge Alfred Coit’s sharpie was smashed and a mo- torboat which broke adrift in a dtorm a few days ago and was hauled high on Osprey beach was on Wednesday pounded to splinters. The private wharf of the Guthrie place just above Osprey beach was crumpled. Several garages had automobiles in them and the water rose to the floors of the cars. The flood came so sud- denly there was no warning and no precautiéns against damage could be taken. The breach of the dike at Easterly and Ocean View places makes the most serious damage, as, unless repairs are promvtly made, even an ordinary tide can sweep through the breaks and do continued damage to that part of the colony. FUNERALS. William H. Bennett. The funeral of William H. Bennett was held Wednesday afternoon at 1 o'clock from nis late home in Preston City with a large number of relatives and friends in attendance. There were many beautiful floral forms grouped about the casket. The services were conducted by Rev. Mr. Tholen, pastor of the Preston City church. Asleep in Jesus and My Jesus as Thou Wiit were rendered by Rev and Mrs. Tholen. The bearers were A. P. Bennett, Earl Ben- nett, C. H. Bennett, W. A. Bennett, John Pheiffer and P. A. Brown. Burial was in the Preston City cemetery, where a compmittal service was read by Rev. Mr. Tholen. Undertakers Church & Allen had charge of the funeral arrangements. Henry O. Woodworth, The funeral of Henry O. Wood- worth was held Thursday afternoon at 2.30 o'clock at the home of his son, Oliver Woodworth, No. 17 Alger street, New London, and was attended by a large gathering of mourners and sym- pathizing acquaintances of members of the family.
