LORD METHUEN TO BE
HELD As A HOSTAGE

London, March 1.-THE importance
of the defeat and capture OF Lord
Methuen by General Delarey is en-
hanced by the fact That Methuen ranks
next to Lord Kitchener in South
Africa. Lady Methuen, who is now
en- route for home from Cape Town,
will not hear of the disaster until she
reaches Madeira, where SHE is due on
March Is. It is believed the Beers
will not fail to take advantage of Gen.
eral Methuen's prominence to hold him
as hostage for the safety Of Boer
leaders now in the hands of the Brit
ish.

Build wall that viii prevent every

what the people who live over Elev-
enth street are saying with one accord
An Evening Journal reporter inter
viewed q number of the people this
morning and the opinion OF all was
that the Street and Sewer Department
should take some action TO protect
their property and perhaps their lives.
All Want Retaining Wall
Tho following quotations are some
expressions that are heard: "We want
something done badly and we want IL
soon. Mrs. r. j. Coffin.
"Wo need a wall that will be higher
than any tide known in the Brandy

never signed any petition before but

that are to be heard on every side.

Mrs Gibson. at the corner OF Twelfth

flooded and she was in readiness To
move all her furniture to an upper
story tho night Of the flood.
Every heavy storm we have she

How the level of the street and here ths

"Then the pools mako a good breed

almost unbearable"
Almost Flooded Out
Tho daughter OF Mrs. Sarah Brown
who lives i'm a frame house at No. 1907
East Twelfth street said: "Our cellar
is always full of water. lt goes up and
down with the tide and last summer
wa thought we would have TO move on

running into tho cellar.

lgot up petitions and sent them
Ito the Street and Sewer Department

A wrong impression prevails through
typical errors. that Morris Levy, who
loperates the Levy Kumfort Shoe
House, is going TO move. This is not
so. The fact of tho matter is that Mr..
Levy owned the Diamond State Shoe
Company also. at No 226 Market
lstreet. This store he closed up and
lremoved the entire stock over to his
Kumfort Shoe House store, at No. 223

Speaking of the shrievalty contest,
the Wallingford correspondent of the
New Haven Register says that as far
as can be learned Wallingford is good
fighting ground for any of the candi-
dates for this coveted position. There
are plenty of Tomlinson men here to
land for delegates for the old war
horse Charlie Tomlinson. 1t is even
betting on the result of the election of
delegates with a good chance for a
third man whose name has not been
mentioned to win the local delegation.

MUNICIPAL

ten, particularly around election time
The other evening we heard three
'sheelers'' arguing the question; one
was a full-hedged gobbler Of all tran

tirely make up their minds. Wen.
the first spokesman was "corkef
with the gift of CAB. He showed
the others why the municipality
should own the gas, the railways, the
electric cars and electric lights ana
hundred and one other things, but ne
didn't seem to make the right impress
sion until he showed that by control
ling the breWeries it would be good
thing. That settled it. Just at TINS
stage of the conversation they took
walk and a certain tea man got 10

cries the heartier he laughed because
he knew it would be darn GOOD
thing if for no other reason than TO
make a vast majority of the voters
take a special interest about electlon.
It's queer the stuff they make IN brew
cries takes such hold on people.
How much better off they'd be if they
would drink nothing stronger than
