Botsford, superintendent of the board of health of that city, that this could have been pre- vented had the knowledge become public i time. Dr. Botsford says: “I persomally favor the modification of the state law, and I should. like to see the requirements /made that, as in the case of non-residents, residents should be required to allow five days to elapse between the application for the marriage license and the date of the . ceremony, ' with the same publicity that is now given to the marriage appli- catlons_of non-residents.” Dr.. Botsford' further says: “T should like to see the law make it compulsory for both applicants for a marriage license to make statement under oath as to the information asked for. At present, when only one party is required to apply, per- jury is easy when it comes to answering for the other.” The law reads: “If neither of such persons is_a resident of said town. said registrar shall not issue such certificate |until the fifth day following, unless the judge of probate for the district in which the intended marriage is. to be celebrated, or the person who is to join such parties in marriage, after hearing such evidence as is presefited, renders a written de- the orchestra at the Breed theatre. MAY BE MEMBER OF HARDING'S ! CABINET Mrs Harriet Taylor Upton, ‘whom rumor has it ‘may even be a member of the new cabinet. -She has-been vice chairman of the Executive Committee of the Republican.-National Commit- tee. She is confident that enough.wo- | men will be appointed in various .of- | fices to make . governmental house- cleaning possible. cision that, in his opinion, public policy . . Tequires the marriage to be cele- brlted without delay. Upon receipt of such a decision, such registrar shail file same as a public document, and shall is- sue his certificate . . . . ete” ‘Even with this law designed to prevent couples skipping from ome town to an- other to get married off-hand, couples manage ‘to beat the law and get married withont waiting for five days in towns in which neither are residerits. Qne or the other will claim a residence and give an address in the town where the license is applied for, so that the town clerk, unless be knows the address is.false, has no rea- son for refusing to issue a license at ence. This is easily worked in the cities ‘where the registrar or town clerk cannot be presumed to know where everybody lives and camnmot always: verify addresses from the directory. Accommodating town clerks also at times assist the would-be wedding couples to keep their intentions secret by keeping the application out of sight un- til_after the five day limit has passed. In most cities of Connecticut all mar- rlage records are open to inspection by the press, and in many the licenses are published as issued. Publication of mar- riage licenszes when issued, however, has not been a custom in this city. COAL TRUCK WAS NEAR TAKING 70 FOOT PLUNGE A small iron fence saved the auto- mobile truck. of the Shetucket Coal Company from practically certain de- struction on Wednesday morning when it held the truck from crashing over the embankment at the rear of the PBroadway school and plunging down the steep embankment into Chestnut street, a drop of 70 to 100 feet. Michael Falcone, the driver, and his two - helpers had” gone to the school with a load of coal and were unloading {it,iny the school cellar when the ma- chine started to roll gently toward the embankment. - The two 'helpers were in the machine at the time and jumped to the ground just before the machine hit the fence. When the truck struck the fence it broke through it but the fence checked the machine so that it | came to rest with two wheels over the embankment and.the remainder on the firm ground. - What. started the ma- chine is not known as the driver stat- ed he had all his brakes set up and the motor still and the wheels block- ed.

Jan. 26.—Removal from office of Attorney-General Palmer “as an’ object lesson, althopgh he has only five weeks more to serve,” was demanded today by Samuel Untermyer. In a statement supplementing last night’s rejoinder fo Mr. Palmer's attempt to link Mr, Untermyer with the activi- ties of former German naval attache Boy-Ed, Mr. Untermyer declared the attorney-general should not be permitted “to .disappear into the sort of obscurity that his unfortunate administrations have so richly deserved.” “To this fanatical Anglo-maniac the war will never be over,” continued the statements. “He ‘even resents and sneers at my characterization as ‘unfort- unate people’ the German citizens who invested their hundreds of millions in this country and have had their property confiscated in violation of the world's best tradiions. 1 suppose he considers them as criminals for having trusted to our institutions, “He should he deported -to England where he might learn how a great and generous people knows how to heal the wounds of war—if it were possible to teach him anything.” Rental Raise Is Aanounced.

Nothing in France is more remark- able than the great wave of Anglo- Saxonism that is eweeping the coun- try. English words are being daily Adlnlttm into the colloquial language, and even by the academy into the literary language. Sngnhonrdn abound with English, and it is more than ever spoken in all the firstclass shops and hotels. Sports, until recently foreign to ‘the French nature, have taken a great hold on “Young France,” and fox-trotting has replaced the Jerky ¥rench waltz, Frenchmen, heretofore badly, even ludicrously, dressed in pompous frock coats, readymade ies and bats too small, are going in for twecds and shaving their beards.

Prices are now as low as they will be any time this winter and in most cases lower than next season’s prices. We have a few very nice Coats in stock, the savings on each are really wonderful. But it is America and not England that is entitled to feel flattered by this imitation. In spite of all reports to the contrary, the French have for us, as they decidediy have not for the English, a marked admiration and & considerable affection. I had heard & great deal of talk about our unpopu- larity in France from returned sol- diers (most of whom were fighting and living among Belgians, Flemings, Picards, Walloons and other northern peoples, which are not French, and where in some parts French is not even spoken), and from the type of American traveler whe counts a Frenchman’s love of his own country as hatred of all others. 1 therefore went to some pains to find out what I could about the French opinion of us, and I am conviriced that | we, not only stand high in their ‘esteem, but are even much overrated. The | worst reproach I heard came from a zirl who hated the Americans “he- cause. they are all thieves.” A soldier billeted in her house during the war had stolen fifty francs. On the other hand, I heard Americans praised and envied in ways that could have been nething but sincere, and I received a hundred little courtesies merely cause ] was an Aemrican. They seem to find everything from the “unbe- precision” of our of business and life admirable.
