IN THE COMMONS,

During the session of the house of
commons Mr.. Balfour referred briefly to
the Brussels sugar convention which,
he reiterated did not interfere with the
most favored nation clause of other
treaties. He also announced that the
government had decided not to penalize
sugar for any OF the colonies. In re-
gard to the conditions prevailing in
Macedonia, Mr.. Balfour said they were
a constant menace to the peace of Eu-
rope. The administration Of the laws
was defective there. An incorruptible
government was needed to introduce the
primary elements of order in Macedo-
mia.
He defended the action of the govern
ment toward Venezuela and commended
that it was impossible to lay the papers
before the house at present.
Broadly speaking, continued Mr.. Bal
four, the negotiations were carried out
with the greatest regard, not only for
the feelings of the American people and
government, but for the feelings of
Venezuela.
The debate was then suspended.

The snow fell Monday night over a
big area Of territory. About one foot
of snow on the average fell in this
state. The temperature at the weather
bureau here did not fall below 20 de-
grees. and it was at that point at day
break.
A unique feature of the storm was
the effect on the trolley strike situation
in Waterbury. There the strikers
buses were unable to run, while troll
leys were running. as snow plows had
been kept at work over night. All cars
that ran were well patronized.
Aside from the delay to traffic, the
storm did little damage in Meriden.
The electric cars were kept running.

thought it suffered. other places were
far worse off. At New Orleans Mon

ANAEM0TROPHY.
Do You Recognize 1t ?

When land is used and not fortified
it soon becomes worked out and the
crops will be poor and small. So when
poor or not well selected food is used,
the body runs down and the blood be-
comes impoverished.
Physicians call it Anaemotrophy. 1t
may show itself in the form of rheuma-
tism, dyspepsia and bowel troubles, gen.
eral weakness. fainting spells or other
ways, all accompanied by nervousness.
"About two months ago my wife not
having been fed on properly selected
food became very i'll and her physician,
after a thorough examination, declared
her to be suffering from Anaemotrophy,
deficient blood. 1t was necessary to
change the food to enrich the blood and
strengthen the organs and muscles and
brace up the nerves with a good diet.
Her stomach and entire system were in
revolt against pasty indigestible COM
pounds and partly cooked cereals and
the overworked organs protested against
being longer overburdened.
Zone day I bought package of
Grape-Nuts and she began using them
at once. Not only did she relish the
delicate flavor but her stomach received
them without protest.
"At breakfast and supper this was her
only Good save occasionally cracker
with jelly. In a week or so her cheeks
had taken on a tinge Of red and her
strength had visibly increased. The
doctor congratulated himself and her
upon her recovery. He could hardly be-
1ieve 1t possible then. but now he is a
steady user of Grape-Nuts himself.
To-day her general health is vastly i'm
proved, her weight has increased eleven
pounds and she is eating whatever she
likes, her digestion being perfect.
Il attribute this to the increased
nourishment and rest given to the di-
gestive organs by the use. Of Grape
Nuts. We cannot say too much in hon.
est and well merited praise of it,"

STORM COSTS CITY $4,000.

Street Cleaning Account a Heavy One
Much Work Remains.
The present STOW storm will cost the
city about $4,000 on the cleaning snow
account.
The department of public works had
about 200 men and 50 teams engaged in
snow cleaning yesterday. Every man
who came along was given job. The
men were employed on the central
streets for the most part of the day.
The snow at first cleared off was
dumped on the Green back of the
North church, Waterside park, York
street park and other places will prob
ably be used as dumping grounds also.
The snow cleaning force will prob
ably be kept on the streets for some
days yet.

IN THE LORDS

The Duke of Devonshire, lord presi-
dent said difficulties might still arise
in connection with Venezuela, as the
latter at present apparently had no set
tied government. He trusted, however,
that the result of the reference to arbi-
tration would be satisfactory.
Continuing, the Duke Of Devonshire
said that Great Britain accepted the
Monroe doctrine unreservedly, but to
have abstained from enforcing claims
which she believed to be just and es-
sential to her honor would be to make
the Monroe dictrine an object of dislike
for every civilized power.

the night as comfortable as possible
under the circumstances. They got
stuck at 1850 p. m. and it was O'clock

and John Gallagher, the two crews,
spent the night on the cars. The small

South Norwalk, Feb. 1.-THE storm
here delayed all traffic by trolleys I'M

some of the lines were not open. A
pole on which was placed four wires
of the municipal electric plant fell over
and crashed through the window of the
second story of a house on Franklin
street, badly frightening the inmates,
but no damage was done.
South Manchester, Feb. 1.-THE
storm was very severe here. Consid-
erably over foot, of snow fell. The
town teams and a force of Cheney
Brothers men broke paths, but travel
was limited during the day. The tram
way company had it's cars out early,
and the line was opened as fast as pos
sible. During the early morning they
could not get beyond Burnside toward
Hartford. The trains on the Highland
division were late. The schools were
not in session. No mail had arrived
here up to 10 o'clock.
Hartford, Feb. 17.--"It isn't always
the depth of snow that counts; it's the
kind, and to-days Is the worst kind
for tying up trolley lines. We are pre-
pared for just this sort of thing about
as we'll as any road could be, but this
storm has bothered us more than any
this winter"
This was the expression Of a street
railroad man shortly before II o'clock
this morning as he noted the arrival of
cars at the city hall, some on time, 9TH
ers from ten to thirty minutes late.
Many more cars which should have
been passing the city hall did not show
up at all, the lines on which they run
being completely or partially tied up
by the storm.
1t was a hard night for the trolley
men. The storm, which had been an in
termittent one all day yesterday, start
ed in again about 1880 o'clock last even
ing and began to make trouble for the
trolley lines very soon. By the time the
theaters were out the schedules on
some Of the suburban lines were seri-
ously interfered with, and the last
night cars pulled into the barns quite
late.
In few instances they did not pull in
at all. The last car on the South Wind
sor line, which meets a Springfield car
at the East Hartford railroad crossing,
stayed in East Hartford all night, the
conductor and motorman making the
best of an uncomfortable situation.

outlying districts it was necessary to
run two cars trailer-fashion to get
enough electric power. On the main
lines, and where the cars were kept
running all the time, the schedules were

Jealous Husband Killed.

Frank Griffith, brakeman, was shot and killed at a boarding house in North Little Rock by Jesse Clark, an other railroad man The boarding house is run by Mrs Griffith, and the killing was due to jealousy on the part of Griffith. Clark it seems, had on several occasions assisted the land lady, who did most of her own work, and several days before the tragedy the wto men had a fight Griffith then got on a spree, and when he came into the dining room about 9 o'clock at night. and seeing Clark and his wife seated at a table, struck the latter a stinging blow in the face. He then struck Clark and they closed in desperate struggle. Clark managed to reach his pistol and shot Griffith through the left lung. the man dying in a few minutes.
