He beautifully pictured the meaning of the colors of the service flag—the red for the patrioti's blood, willing to be shed, the white the purity of the patriot’s love, the blue for con- stancy and service, and again the red standing for the bleeding hearts of the fathers, the white for the purity of the mothér’s love and the biue for the hope that the boys may return. The State guard gave an exhibition drill upon the chyugh green, which closed the exercises.

This was a casé brought by Miss Richmond to recover demages as the result of being shot by a guard at the reservoir in Nor- wich about two years‘ago. In briefly giving his reasons he closes by saying: The belief by Matri | that the plaintiff and the chauffeur in- Mothers' | tended to harm the reservoir and dam League held in the Shetucket club, on new members were The league is for the pur- pose of. instruction in child welfare. is immaterial, the question to be tried is whether he had any grounds to ap- prehend such a result. Only in the latter event would he be justified, if at all_in shooting the plaintiff. Matri’'s intention not to wound, and his laek of knowledge as to whether the plain- tiff was in fact founded by his act all bear upon the question of his negli- gence or trespass, as may be claimed, and can be litigated prbperly under allegations of the complaint and de- cannot avail himself by virtue of the fArst defense. In the case of Charity and Relief case was a° contest over a right of way. In his decision Judge Keeler lets an in- Jjunction issué with a penalty of $1,000 réstraining the defendant from future obstruction of the right of way. Judgment for the defendant is given payment of a note.

In the 10th century, the history of France merges into that of the cru- sades when all Chrisendom began to be aroused by the wild eloquence of Peter the Hermit. This man’s soul wag fired with a holy passion—the land where Christ lived and toiled and then offereq up his life in the most with a burning eloquence, went up and down the 3 highways of France calling men to enlist in a holy war even in her desolation. The knights, springing, from their saddles wet the turf with tears of mingled joy and ¢orraw. There was temporary success but the crusades ended disastrousiy.
