BUILDERS EXCHANGE.
Atmosphere of Business Pervades Rooms
MANY Changes Are Taking Place.


MANY Changes Are Taking Place.
The delegates from the local Build
ers' Exchange to the 18th annual con-
vention of the National Association of
Builders, which is to be held in the city
of Milwaukee next week, left yesterday
afternoon.
The Worcester party was made up of
President Bertrand w. Stone, Alder
man Charles A. Vaughan Joseph G.
Vaudreuil, Elwood Adams, Oliver T.
Kendall, H. f. Marsh, E. J. Cross and
John Skehorne. The Worcester dele
gates joined the Boston party on it's
way westward over the Boston and
Albany railroad, leaving this city at $40
O'Clock. The party goes in q special
car direct to Chicago, where a stop will
be made over Sunday. At these con-
ventions methods of work for local ex-
changes are discussed, and measures
taken to promote the most successful
work. Beside this, papers and ad-
dresses on building matters of interest
to builders are read.
The delegates from the local exchange
are due to return next Saturday, but
their arrival may be delayed on ac-
count of side excursions after the ses-
sions of the convention.
With the advent Of new secretary
at the exchange, many changes are in
progress, and plans are rapidly being
formulated to make the exchange more
useful to the members. The desks
which have heretofore occupied posi-
tons on the Main street front of the
large hall are to be removed and
placed at regular intervals on the
Chatham street side. This will pro-
vide desk room for fifteen members.
h
hall from the directors room has been
moved forward, and an additional gate
has been provided. The smoking room
at the rear of the hall is to be tele~
/ phonically connected with the secre-
tary's desk, and the system of electric
lighting is to be extended. a light being
supplied with each desk. The new
members post Office, which has been
| in process of construction for several
months, is in position, the keys have
arrived and only the finishing touches
remain to make 1t ready for use.
| The visitors register, which has been
at the rear of the exhibition hall, is to
be removed, and henceforth will occupy
a position contiguous to the main en-
trance A new system Of registration
| is to be employed, which will be of
value to members of the exchange.
| Already the members of the ex-
change are beginning to note the eff
| feet and business-like aspect seems
to pervade the rooms. Yesterday Sec
rotary Fenner and his assistant, Ernest
Mosman, werS engaged in further
| clearing out the rooms and sent away
over five hundred weight Of waste pa
per and rubbish. Secretary Fenner
says that it is not merely the case of a
new broom sweeping clean but that
the good work is to go on until the
| Worcester Exchange is Of the utmost
| benefit to it's members and second to
none in the country.
| An inter communicating electric call
system is to be installed between the
general telephone room and the various
tenants of the exchange.

EMBRACE
In the Corridor of
Divorce Court.
HE LOVES HIS WIFE,
But Peter Deignan Can't
Forgive Her.

Two principals in a divorce suit met
in loving embrace just outside the
equity room in the court house yester-
day. Peter Deignan, who is libellant in
divorce suit against his wife, Mary
NJ Deignan, flung his arms around his
better half and kissed her affectionate-
ly To the beholders the couple appeared
like newly married pair plighting their
troth and swearing never tofpart. Then
they stepped inside the equity room and
proceeded with the more practical and
less pastoral occupation Of getting a
divorce.
Deignan says he loves his wife, but
she will drink Deignan is, or used to be
a liquor dealer But in his own home he
! is an advocate of temperance. He wants
nothing there to remind him of the
shop. He believes that if the wife of
Caesar should be above suspicion, the
wife Of a, liquor dealer should be as far
above cavil as a white ribboner.
Deignan married his wife under some
what romantic circumstances at the
seaside. H rs acquaintance with the lady
of his choice was brief. They were mar
ried at Providence and went to spend
! the honeymoon at Newport. His trou-
bles began, he says. the second day
after the ceremony. The honeymoon, he
says he soon discovered was a full
moon as far as his wife was concerned
Since that time, he swears she has been
intoxicated no less than so times. He
| left her the 10th of last August, and the
goth of the same month instituted pro-
ceedings of divorce. Mrs. Deignan has Of
| late been confined in an insane asylum
by order of the court. She came tC
court yesterday with an attendant.
The day was largely taken>up hearing
the testimony of officers who testified
to having arrested Mrs. Deignan at var.
ious times for drunkenness. Officer r. f
Matthews testified to seeing her once
lying on the floor intoxicated, with the
house In general disorder and witt
kitchen utensils lying about in grea
confusion.
M. M. Taylor and H. S. Haskell repre-
scented Mr.. Deignan, and Sullivan
lO'Connell and ]. F. McGovern appeared
| for the defendant.

WANDERED AWAY.
Aged Woman Leaves BECKER Street Home
and is Found in North Grafton.

Mrs. Sansregret, an aged inmate of
the Franciscan Sisters home on Bleek-
err street, wandered away from that in
stitution Thursday afternoon, and as
she failed to return the police were no.
titled yesterday morning and asked to
look for her.
About o'clock Constable William A.
Getchell of North Grafton notified the
police that woman thought to belong
in Worcester was in that town. From
the description given, 1t was decided
that she was the missing woman, and
she was brought to this city and sent
home. From what could be learned,
the woman went toward the lake after
leaving the home, where she applied at
a house for shelter The lady of the
house thought the old woman lived in
Grafton, but was unable to understand
her, as the stranger could not speak
English.
She was taken to North Grafton,
where some French-speaking people
found out where she belonged.

NO WOMAN Is EXEMPT.

Regularityis matter of Importance
In every woman's life. Much pain is,
however, endured in the belief that it
is necessary and not alarming, when
in truth it is all wrong and indicates
arrangement that may cause serious
trouble.
Excessive monthly pain itself will
unsettle the nerves and make women
old before their time.
The foundation of woman's health Is
perfectly normal and regular per-
Torrance of natures function. The
statement we print from Miss GER
TRUDE SKIES, of Eldred, Pa, is echoed
in every city, town and hamlet in this
country. Read what she says:
DEAR MRS. PrNKHAM:-I feel like a
new person since following your ad-
vice, and think it is my duty to let the
public know the good your remedies
have done me. My troubles were pain
full menstruation and leucorrhea.
was nervous and had spells of being
confused. Before using your remedies
1 never had any faith in patent medi-
cines. 1now wish to say that l never
had anything do me so much good for
painful menstruation as Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compounds; also would
say that your Sanatiye Wash has cured
me of leucorrhea. / hope these few
words may help suffering women"
The present Mrs. Pinkham's expert
ence in treating female ills is unparal-
leled, for years she worked side by
side with Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham, and
for sometime past has had sole charge
of the correspondence department of
her great business, treating by letter
as many as hundred Thousand ailing
women during a single year.
All suffering women are invited to
write freely to Mrs. Pinlham, at Lynn,
Mass, for advice about their health.

and fruit and about Sc in small change
were taken.
Another case Of the same nature was
reported by Mrs. Frances b. Haley

CAR RAN AWAY.

An east-bound car on the west side
line got away from the motorman
shortly after noon yesterday and
dashed down Pleasant street. through
Harrington corner, at rate that
meant a serious accident in event Of a
collision.
Fortunately no cars were IN the way,
but a truck team owned by John Nc
Nulty was passing the foot of the
street when the car was noticed. II
was a matter of some doubt with the
driver as to whether the car would
take the tracks down Main or Front
streets. He finally decided to back his
horses off the Front street track. The
decision was not a minute too soon, for
the car struck the end of his pole,
throwing one of the horses to the
ground.
The car stopped after reaching level
tracks, and an investigation showed no
damage was done.

Leopold Strauss, Assignee, Sues Edward
L. Smith and Henry S. Pratt.
A bill in equity against Edward L.
Smith and Henry S. Pratt was filed by
Goulding and Mellish yesterday in be-
half of Leopold Strauss, assignee of the
Reliable Underwear Company. Smith
and Pratt, it is claimed in the bill
were assignees in voluntary assign
ment of the Reliable Underwear Com
pany made on or about July IA, 1897
They administered the affairs of the
company until the company was for
mally judged insolvent October 1
1897, when Pratt and Strauss were APP
pointed asSignees.
The bill then goes on to allege that
the defendants withheld $4,000 from
the new assignees, claiming that
amount for themselves in recompense
for personal services and for expenses
they claimed to have incurred on the
property. The plaintiff alleges that the
money was not spent in the manner
claimed by the defendants, and demands
its payment to the trustees in insol-
Vency.
