Our rates are no higher—our service expert. ISAAC S. JONES Insurance and Real Estate Agent Richards B Street COVENTRY A large number from here went to Mansfield Depot Sunday evening to meet the government train of war relics. There was a large crowd and everyone Wag much interested in the speakers, who were soldiers who had been wounded in service in France. The relics were very interesting, espe- cially to those who had never seen the equipment used by the Germans and allies in this war. The local Red Cress has sent out a call for material, sheets, towels, nap- kins, handkerchiefs. etc. h The Ladies’ society met in the chapel Wednesday for work. In the evening they gave a play called Aunt Deborah’s Pocketbook. Mrs. L. J. Loomis and Miss Zoetje Bchell have been chosen delegates to the Woman's Missionary society con- vention which meets in Middletown. ‘The chairman of the republican town tommittee met the state central com- mittee for the 35th district at the Hotel Rockville Friday, the 4th, at 11 v'clock.

ALL BOSTON SALOONS AND SODA FOUNTAINS CLOSED Boston, Oct. 4.—The Boston board of health in an effort to stop the spread of influenza issued an order tonight closing from midnight Sunday until further notice all saloons, bowling al- leys, pool rooms, billiard halls, slot machine parlors, soda fountains and auction rooms. Governor McCall and the state em- srgency public health committee made public a request that church services be temporarily abandoned. No order was issued prohibiting services but the committee is confident that vir- tually every church in Massachusetts will be closed next Sunday. The death rate in Boston continues high, reports at 10 o'clock tonight for the last 24 hours showed 154 deaths from influenza and 29 from pneumo- nia. The epidemic is spreading rapidly in the western part cf the state but is being held in check in the tern por- tion, where most of the drganized work against it has beep done. D Bernard Walsh, state epidemiologist, tonight estimated that 175,000 cases of influenza had developed outside of Boston, with more than 5,000 deaths. Cardinal O’'Connell, in a letier to the clergy and parishioners of the arch- diocese tonigh urged them to co-oper- ate with the authorities in checking the epidemi CIVILIZED WORLD A UNIT IN CONDEMNING BOLSHEVIKI Washington, Oct, 4.—The -civilized world virtually is a unit in condemn- ing the Bolsheviki and the reign of terror in that part of Russia under their control. Replies have been re- ceived by the state department from most of the countries of the world heartily endorsing the recent ngte ad- cressed to them Secretary Lans- irg calling for an expression of con- in cdemnation of the lawless clement Russia. The eutral nations, represe of which 1 are in Petrograd cr Moscow, were placed in a somewhat delicate position as a resuit of the Lansing note but it is. known that they agree with the American gov- ernmeént’s positlan, In fact two of them—Norway an§ - Holland—throuch their diplomatic and consular repre- sentatives in Bolshevik-controlled Russia, voiced a joint protest at the *onduct of the Folsheviki soon after the American note w: dispatched. A CALL FOR ECONOMY J IN THE USE OF COAL Boston, Oct. 4—A renewed warn- ing to householders to practice econ- omy in the use of coai was given by James J. Storrow, New England fuel administrator, in a staiemen’ tonight. “1 f"\n=ldPr it very doubtful” he said, “if householders will be able to get their usual fall allotment of an- thracite coal. I urge them to go care- fully and save every poind they can. We have recéived more household coal up to now than a year ago, but our stocks on hand at the end of the winter were abnormally low “We are now in good shape for th season of lh!‘ Yyear on bituminous or Ul-fitting Ideals.

The wind- fall was the reward from the recent world series. It was the prize for fourth position in the American league share from .the series amounted 5.60. Each of the players with the club throughout tke season received one full share of $174.- 10 and each of the others a half share. ARMY'S FOOTBALL SCHEDULE RIDDLED BY CANCELLATIONS The Army's October schedule is shot to pieces as a result of the war de- partment's order barring overnight trips before November 1. Deston Col- lege, due here next Saturday, and Syracuse, due a week iater, have both been cancelled. The Army's oth- er October date, formerly given to Tufts, also is open, so the West Point- ers are looking for games to flll in all the remaining Saturdays of this month. Such was the announcement of the athletic authorities. BASEBALL COMMISSION TO DISCIPLINE PLAYERS Chicago, Oct. 4-—The National Base- ball Commission has decided to disci- pline members of the champion Bos- ton American club, who, after the world's series, engaged in a trip un- der the name of the Red Sox, Presi- dent Johnson of the American League announced tonight. Bush, Schang, Strunk and Mayer are among the players under investiga- tion, President Johnson said, but he did not indicate what measures would be taken to punish them. Exhibition games were played in violation of the commission’s orders to disband at the close of the world's series. Fresident Johnson said that the com- mission had about decided to deprive the Boston players of the individual FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL MARKET WAS STRONG. New York, Oct. 4.—In its chief characteristics, today’s stock market presented no new features of interest. Shares likely to be adverseiy affected by an early termination of the war again denoted pressure, in contrast to the strength of many other issues. Backwardness ‘ of rails again was disappointing and combined with the heaviness of U. S. Steel detracted to ro small extent from what otherwise afforded a substantial basis for a for- ward movement of wide proportions. U, S. Steel reacted a point from its slight gain at the opening, made more than full recovery, but lost ground in in the last hour with _related equipments and leathers, also miscel- laneous issues, including Industrial Alcohol. Speculative commitments by trad- ers again comprehended for the most part shippings, cils, motors, coppers, tchaccos, sugars and numerous utili- ties, the latter group probably deriv- ing their strength from the better out- look for financial assistance. Many of these stocks registered best quotations of the curren ard a few mounted to hi of the year, although extreme of 2 to 10 points were generall at_the irregular close, hea following another sharp r pings. alas were 600,000 shares.

No intercollegiate foot- tall games will be played and ath- letic contests among Yale men will be Leld ony on Saturday afternoons, this being the only free time according to Professor Robert M. Corwin, ch: man of the board of control el t!‘e Yale Athletic association. “Intercollegiate games as %racticed in the past are impossible. but inter- uhit impromptu contests may be pro- moted” Profcksor Corwin eaid. He pointed qut the importance of discarding everything non-essential for those things which are in line of war training and expressed his belief ir the necessity for athletics whicl have been demonstrated at trainin cumps as providing recreation in its most healthful form. In a formal statement yesterday Professor Corwin said in part: “The war department s assigned to colleges and universities the task of discovering and developing officer material for the United States army. This new task will involve radical and far reaching changes in mest matters which concern college life. The need is pressing and the work must be in- tensive * * ¢ “We, therefore, do not know what place in this new regim= can be as- signed to athletics * * * Any insist- ence upon a continuance of our usual practice in these matters could only embarrass those charged with the ac- complishment of the prasent great task. Although the men in all units have full schedules—some fifty odd bours a week—Saturday afternoons will be free, and it ought to be pos ble to have numerous inter-unit im-’ promptu contests which would be fun for both participants and the specta- tors, “All of our athletic 7ycilities have been placed at the disposal of the commandant.” ARMY’S FOOTBALL SCHEDULE BADLY UPSET West Point, N. Y, Oct. 4 — The army's footballe game with Boston College scheduled to be plaved here tomorrow, has been called off, it was announced tonight, because of the war department’s order that the two upper classes be graduated November The whole football situation here now is badly upset, and all games may be cancelled for lack of gridiron ma- terial. Of the 400 cadets who will re- main after ahe graduation, only twen- ty are in the football squad.

There will be a Red Cross event in the Pinehurst 'tournament in January, ,and the Philadelphia | Trapshooters “League has decided to give a half cent on every target; thrown to the Red Cross. Last year this league threw 172,000 tar- gets. There is considerable falk about the organization of professional trapshooting teams touring the country for the benefit of the Red,| Cross. It is hoped this idea will be put through. It is a big thing and; should attract considerable money for the greatest of all war charities. 500 FOOTBALL UNIFORMS 7 " WANTED FOR SOLDIERS “Big Bill” Edwards has received | from Johnny Evers, now in France, the following cable: “Need 500 football uniforms.” BEdwards is -hustling to make good, and has already appointed alarge football committee to co-operate with him throughout tehwhole country and has written letters to the man- agers of the different college foot- ball teams urging them to co-oper- ate in this most important collec- tion of material. Donations can be sent by express, prepaid, to W. H. Edwards, at the Custom House, New York City. PLAY BENEFIT GAME Jack Kearney's Amqican Chain gridiron gladiators will open their 1918 season Sunday, October 6, play- that Kearney will select for the in- auguration of the season. After alll expenses are paid, the profits will be turned over to the Army Field hos- pital, No. 16, which is located in West Haven . Both Kearney and Coach McCarthy are confident of having a champion- ship eleven representing the Chain company this year. With the major- ity of last years’ stars and a flock of candidates, including college and prep school stars, it is the opinion of some that a faster eleven than last year’s will be on the field this season. MAJOR BASEBALL TO HAVE OFFICIAL END Major league baseball in so far as it concerns the National league, will be officially terminated at the annual meeting of the association to be held in New York on December 10. At the gathering the senior organization will formally wind up the business affairs of the season just closed and enter upon a hiatus whick will re- main undisturbed until such time as international affairs appear to war- rant a revical of the professional end of the national game. This, at least, is the intention of the owners at the present time, aud nothing short of a most sensational change in the war status within the next two months will cause a shift in the plans of the league. It requires a, long period of prep- aration and much detail work prior to the opening ofjeach pennant race, and it is.recognized that in the pres- ent unsettled state of baseball af- fairs it would be impossible to re- new the operation of the circuit without ample time in which to for- mulate plans. Players of the various teams will be scattered to the four points of the compass and some of the beseball parks will have been adapted to other forms of busine SPORTING NOTES. Pete Harman. who had difficulty in tpointing Young Zulu Kid, seems disinclined to meet Dick Loadman of Buffalo. In responding to a challenge Herman stipulated that Loadman, who is a 125-pound boy, should make 110 ringside, while the champion goes into the ring at catchweight. Mike Gibbons, called the St. Paul phantom,” and without doubt the cleverest middleweight the world has known. may shortly be made a j in Upcle Sam’s great army. Mike was one of the first to offer his vices to the great cause and his instruction has been of such value as to suggest him for higher honor: Although never possessed of a terrific punch, he has nevertheless sent several boxers to dreamland. His wonderful speed, however has been his main asset. and he probably has never met his match for speed. Now that the war department has decided to allow football teams of the different universities under cen- trol of the government to i away from Friday until Sunday night, the gridiron game is bound to thrive.
