Cairns of 11 Fremont street, New London, well known locally as the local representative of the National Cash Register company, was almost in- stantly killed Thursday afternoon in Waterford, near the New London line, on the East Lyme road, when the automo- bile in which he was riding with Charles Humphreys, also of New London, over- turned as they were endeavering to pass several automobiles. Mr, Cairns and Mr. Humphreys had been out to Oswegatchie in a new ma- chine which Mr. Humphreys was demon- strating. As they ' were returning to New London, Mr, Humphreys, who was driving, attempted to pass several ma- chines ahead of him. As he was about half way by, another car coming in the opposite direction suddenly appeared. To avoid hitting the omcoming machine, Mr. Humphreys swung his car sharply to the left, going over the trolley tracks and climbing part way up the bank on the side of the road. The machine toppled over, throwing Mr. Humphreys clear of the wreck, but pinning Mr. Cairns un- derneath. Mr. Cairns was freed from the wreck and immediately rushed to the Lawrence- Memorial hospital in a passing automo- bile, but died just about as he was being taken into the hospital. Dr. Cheney, who attended the injured man, found PUTNAM HANDLE FACTORY BURNED WITH $36,000 LOSS (Special to The Bulletin.) Putnam, July 29.—Fire that was dis- covered at 10.30 Thursday night com- Dletely destrowed the plant of J. B. Tatem and Son, handle manufacturers, George street, and resulted in a loss that is placed by members of the firm at $36,~ 000. The building, a two stery wooden,| structure, 85 feet long, burned ltke tinder and the large supply of dry oak, hickory and ash wood that is used in making the tool handles served as fuel for one of the most spectacular fires in Putnam for many years. The members of -he fire department were helpless, as far as saving the building was concerned, ana the most that they could do was to prevent the spread of the flames. At times it looked as though the entire neighborhool would catch, sparks fallirg as thick as snow for blocks around. i* was only the most heroic kind of work by the firemen that kept the blaze con- fined to one buoldi: The fire was discovered by Wilton Greene, who lives nearby. As he sat his home he saw flames pouring from the structure at the northwest corner. He rang Box 13 at Ring and Grove streets. Although the department arrived quickly the building was doomed. The fire spread almost instantly from one end to the oth- er and in less than 20 minutes th® place was a roaring furnace. Three lines of hose were used in the attempt to control the blaze. While the fire was at its height the flames were curling 60 feet into the air and could be seen for miles. Peovle at Pomfret and Wildwood were attracted by the bril- liant “ky and hundreds gzathered on Farrow street'to watch the builing burn. The origin of the fire has not been de- termined. It was at first thought that 1t might have started in the boiler room, but those first on the scene state that the fire was not in that part of the building on their arrival, but spread there aft- erward. Practically nothing except th office furnishings and books were saved, all of the valuable wood turning ma. chinery and stock of wood in the main building being a total loss. The buildirg itself was completely destroyed. Mr. Tatem said early this (Friday) morning that he valued the plant at $36,- 000 and that he is well instred. The plant which manufactures handles of ali kinds has been running five days a week lately and employing sixteen hands. When running full time aboyt 31 hands are employed. The Tatem plant was almost_ entirely destroyed in 1913 in a fire alleged to have been set by Frank Howarth now serving a term for arson. A few years later there was an- other fire which destoyed the boiler room. NORWICH FISHERMEN MAKE ANNUAL PICNIC PLANS Plans for r picnic and preparations to receive a shipment of 10,000 finger- ling trout were discuzsed at a meeting of the Norwich Fishermen's Association held Thursday evening at the office of Dr. J. J. Donohue with A. C. Brown, the president, in the chair. The date selected for the plenic was August 14th and the place is to be at Gardner's lake, the same place where the very successful picnic was held last year. This is on property of Pres- ident Brown. The complete plans will, be announced to the membership by the committee that was appointed. The trout shipment is expected here next Thursday and ten different persons will distribute the fish in streams in this vicinity. The fish were bought by the association. Notice has been received from a breed- er of bass that none can be sent to fill the order put in by the Norwich asso- cnation because this breeder’s bass crop was a failure this year.

Mr. Humphreys escaped with a few bruises and a bad cut on his head. Mr. Cairns was well known and well liked in Norwich, much of His business being in this city. He was a member of the New Londons Rotary club and a fre- quent and welcome visitor at the weekly noonday- luncheons of the local club. It was with a shock and sincere feeling of regret that the mews of his sudden end was learned here on Thursday afternoon by his host of friends in Norwich. He was one of those who attended the Ro- tary outing at Ludlow farm Wednesday afternoon, and little did his brother Ro- tarians of this city think as they saw his smile of solid enjoyment that it was the last time they would see him. He. was an ald-time profession=" base- ball player and al%ays took positive de- light in the games between the New Lon- don Rotary club and the Norwich Rotary club, he being the captain of the New London team.. He was 42 years of age and a man of sterling qualities, one whem it was Indeed a pleasure to meet and a’ person one was glad to count as a friend.

PUTNAM THIEF MAY BE WANTED IN LAWRENCE (Special to The Bulletin) Putnam, July 28.—Wednesday night, Robert Scott, employed at Allard’s pool room, listened to the hard luck story of a sailor, giving his name as Steve Robuck, and feeling sorry for the ypung man wio said he was stranded in Putnam and had Do placs to sleep offered to share his room with him for the night. Late in the ev- ening Scott and his guest went to Scott’s THINKS YOUNG TURNER HAS GONE TO HARWICH, MASS.| ¢ 4 Up to a late hour Thursday evening nothing had been heard from J. Ar- lington Turner, son of Mr. and Mrs.. Frank C. Turner of 15 Broad Street,’ the young man who was lured from the house on Wednesday evening by| a woman with whom he had become infatuated. 1t was thought at the Turner home on Thursday evening that the young man and the woman had gone to the woman's home in Harwich, Mass., where young Mr. Turner had met her during last summer. It seems that the young man who is a student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology had been the woman during the school year, she coming to Boston to visit him and he spending his week ends. in Harwich as her guest., The report that was current around town on Thursday that the woman in the case was a former Norwich wo- man was absolutely denied by Mr. Turner on Thursday evening. While declining to tell the woman's name, Mr. er said that she is about 29| years \old,ethat her home is in Har- wich, and *hat she was married six or seven years ago and recently obtained a divorce from her husband who is now paying her alimony of- $10 per week. It is also understood that another Norwich young man had been vamped by the woman but had broken with her about a year ago. ‘This is not the first time the wo- man has tried to lure Mr. Turner away from his parents, the other at- tempts being unsuccessful. Mr. Turner and his parents have been summer- ing at Harwichport on Cape Cod for severa] summers an dthis summer the Pacents seeing the trend of affairs de- cided to return home. The young man not to be foiled by this turn of paren- tal opposition, advanced money enough for the woman’s fare to New London Where, it is claimed she stopped at the mohican. Some friends of the Turner family knowing the circursiances no fied the Turners of the woman's arrival in New London and what she intend- ed to do. Mr. Turner did all he could to prevent his son from going with the woman and it is zaid that he stationed a guard in the Turner automobile on Wednesday afternoon to prevent him room over the Sandlowitz store, and went to bed. When Scott waked TTrursday morning he discoveral that the sailor had gone, also that nearly $50 in cash had disappeared with him. Some of this cash belonged to Scott personally and some of it be was kecping for wis em- ployer. The police were notified of the theft Thursday morning. Efforts to learn |how the sailor left Putnam early in the jmorning have not been successful, This man may be the one that the Law- rence police are looking for, according to a notice sent to the Norwich depart- ment on June 24, which described a Stephen Roebuck, alias Riebuck, wio was wanted in Lawreuce for larceny of $110 on June 20th. The Lawrence complaint stated that he had been employd in a :unch cart there and had disappeared with $110 while the lunoh cart pregrietor went giome to sup- per. Nothing was said in the description sent here about the man being a saitor but it was said he had a wie living on Franklin street and formerly worked in a Norwich grocery store. The man the Lawrence police were look- ing for was said to be about 23 years old, 5 feet 5 or 6 inches in height, weight 140 pounds, dark complexion, hair worn long and thrown back parts of three fingers of one hand cut off.

This is not the fault of the as- paragus, however, explained the Jocior. He did not condemn asparagus but ex- plained that when it does cause “the blues” it is because the person’s system is already clogged with its own im- purities. He said: “The asparagus is the last straw which, added to the toxic state of the system, produces a physical sate of the braim and nerves which is reflected as “the blues.” This happens because the me- chanistic state of the person's physical system is such that the organs of elim- ination have not been capable of doing their work well for such a long time that the system has become poisoned with its own debris. But had the system been kept in good mechanical condition, elim- ination would always have proceedea normally, the system would have kept clear of poisons, and no bad effects wonld have followed the eating of asparagus, for the normal mechanism would readily throw off the acid of the vegetable Mental functions, in other words, ac- cording to the speaker are markedly in- fluenced by the condition of the blood. He explain»d this as follows: “In the strubble that men's physical organism mus* constamtly keep up in or- der to grow, functio, and keep healthy, it is always that orgamtsm that is han- dicapped by the presence of obstruo- tions to the free flow of its nerve and blood currents that has the least chance to survice and Keep well. “A man's mental functions eannot keep clear and efficient and normal unless his brain and nerves are fed by copious streams of pure blood. The blood can- not be pure and circulate freely, so lorz as the organs of elimination are obstruct- “So it is that ‘what is oone man's meat becomes another man's ® poison.' Faulty diet is largely a matter relative to the mechanical :itatus of the physieal body of the individual.” NEGOTIATIONS OVER DATE OF DISARMAMENT CONFERENCE ‘Washington, July 28 (by the A.
