Mr. Leeds furnished $500 bond required for his release while the young woman was held in custody. Press’ stories. of the affair set forth that Rev. Mr. Leeds and Miss Reid wert located through the efforts of the girl" mother, who came from New Haven in an effort to trace her daughter.

Trial of this case was firet undertaken last Juné and had proceeded at consid- erable length when it was halted for conferences that it was hoped at the time might lead to reconciliation, in view of ‘the "declardtion of ‘the plaintiff that she still loved: her husband. Nothing came ‘of the ‘conferences, in one of which Judge' Avery, then presid- ing in the superlor' court here, partici- pated. It -is expected that trial of the case will extend through today and Friday. At Stonington Manor inn Wednesday at noon Miss Hazel Davis, only daugh- ter of Ernest L.

Not in the memory of Superintendent C. Dwight Sharpe, of the city’s water system, has there been such a bountiful supply throughout a summer season as during the one just closed. The great surplus of water has been the means of saving the city many hundreds of dollars in that less power has been required for pumping than very generally is the case during the hot weather period.

The word jitney is not a dignified enough term for the automobile passenger transportation ser- vice, they claim. and for. this reason the officers of the new assoctation’ have de- cided to make an atf t to change the word from jitney to motor stage. The association is to be known as the Con- necticut Motor Stage association. In the matter of making the motor stage a state-wide convenience, plans are being made by the officers of the associa- tion whereby timetables are to be printed, showing times and prices, and a service established by which a person can travel all through the state by making the pro- per connections on the vatious lines of motor stages. Attorney ~and ex-Representative Pat- rick Healey of Waterbury is the president of the new association and in his opin- lon the word jitney brings to mind the thoughits of a “not-too-good” automobile which carries passengers a short distance for a five-cent fare. Such may have been the case when the business was in its infancy. The automobile transportation business. has now been developed to such a point that it becomes necessary for those who are interested to try to elcvate the business to a higher level according to ‘the officers of the association, The present association was formed about three weeks ago, in order to insure the rights of the members, to promote better service, and to obtain mutual ben- efits for the members, The officers of the association are: Patrick Healey, president; W. A. McCormick of Bridge- port, vice-president; Bdward J. Glidey of Danbury, secretary and Christopher Wells, treasurer. These four officers are also on the board of directors, and the other five men on the board are Joseph Woods of New Haven, W. H. Lyons of Thomaston ; Frank Biscont! of New Lon- don; C. H. Belden of New London, and George Pellett of Danielson. There are now 244 registered cars in the jitney business in this state and the owners of each one ol these cars iz to be approached and asked to join the as- sociation. When the association has ob- tained its full membership a large num- ber of planshat art now being made will be put into effect. - That the state-wide automobile pass- enger service will never replace either the trolleys or the railroad in carrying passengers, but that there is room for all to do a good business, is the opinion of the officers of the association. The ocon- sensus of opinfon of thess men is that the “motor stage” business-is here to stay, and that the cream of the busi- ness will be done by whichever form of transportation proves able-to- give ‘the best service, The idea -of timetables, - showing ‘the times and prices of the various trips; is now in effect on the Hartford-to-New London jitney 1line. This is the:line on which big 22-seat passenger busses are used. 'The various parts of these busses are manufactired dy various com- panies, With automobile companies and vari- ous other manufacturers catering to the Jitneurs, theindication ‘seems to be that the business is here to stay, and that there is a wonderful future for it, and WATCH FOR Thomas H. Ince’s HUMAN EPIC SUPREME “Hail the Woman” With the Greatest Cast Ever o Assembled BRrReeD ~ THEATRE : : -TODAY-— resenTs that the business opens up a very prom- ising field is the opinion of Mr. Healey. No official figures nave been prepared by any of the local jitneurs as far as can be learned but that the business is & paying one for the man who is careful of his car and gives good service is claimed. According to meny of the men who have been in the business for some time, -the expensive car is the best one in the long run. Wear and tear on the automobile is a large i%em in the busi- ness, and the hard wark that a machine is forced to perform soon puts it out of order unless it .is built to stand that kind of work. Only expensive cars are now being used by the men of experience, for the reason that although it entails a large outlay in the beginning it saves in the end, while the purchaser of an inexpensive automobile is generally think- ing of a new car after the old (?) one has gone through a year's hard work. The officers of the Connectiout Motor Stage association will meet again on the 25th of this month, and the meeting. according to the predicitions of jitneymen in this city, will mean the actual start on drawing up of plans to carry through many ideas for the elevation and im- provement of the business in this state. ASKS COURT TO ORDER . \ CONVEYANCE OF LAND Samuel McDonald of Colchester has brought suit in rhe superior court against Henry R.
