BoARDMAN REQUEST.
Executors Must Pay $4,000 to Trinity
Church.

By decision handed down by Judge
Hall Of the supreme court at New Ha-
ven, Monday. the tangle between the
county, Trinity church and the execu-
tors of the estate of Mrs. Lucy Board
man is cleared up. This decision Or
ders that the executors OF the estate
pay to the church the $4,000 bequest
stipulated in Mrs. Boardman's will for
the erection of a Sunday school build
ing on Elm street property formerly
owned by the church but which was
recently condemned for the erection
of the new county building.
In the memorandum handed down
with the decision is the following
statement: THE inability of the church
to strictly perform the conditions of
the gift by spending the $4,000 in
precisely the manner stated in the
viii, Will neither reive the executors
OF Mrs. Boardman from the duty Of
paying the legacy nor furnish grounds
for claim of forfeiture or breach of
trust after payment
A recent decision handed down by
the supreme court upheld the report
of committee appointed by Judge
eager TO assess the property. The re-
port of this committee was to the ef-
feet that the county should pay
$5S,O00 for the property should the
church be able to receive the legacy.
but If unable the church should be re-
imbursed to the amount of the legacy
This last decision means that the
Trinity church will receive the legacy
of $4,000 and that the county will
only have to pay $4,000 for the prop-
erty

I. ]. O'Brien. living at 50 Franklin

ache was a source of much annoyance
to me, the nature of my work greatly
aggravating my. complaint. The strain
on my back while shoeing horses told
severely upon me in the form of pains
through my kidneys. BY spells my
back would fairly seem to give out,
and l was scarcely able to bend or
straighten. Trouble with the kidney
secretions. also existed. they being dark
in color and very irregular in action.
A friend advised me to try Doan's Kid
ney Pills, and ] accordingly procured
a box from N. d. SEWN & Sons drug
store. After using them a short time
1 was convinced that the claims made
in their favor were true. Doan's Kid

ness and corrected the fault that had
existed with the kidney secretions.

The crowds continue to go to Lin

liam Josh DAILY minstrel troup is sing
ing jolly songs, cracking new jokes and
furnishing royal entertainment for the
patrons of the rustic theater.
Joe Nelson, AL. Berger, Jack Welch
and William Oswald give their solos
in excellent voice and the chorus is
strong and even. Jack Welch's stories
and soRSs are laugh raisers. Stewart
and Browns dancing is clever, and
The Three of Us have tuneful must

Ed. Custer, the hand balancer, is a

Rnees on top of a pile of chairs are
both unique and daring. The Mozart
Trio is made up of three rarely good
musicians, whose versatility is shown
by their skilful handling of trombone,
cornet, violin, mandolin and banjo. The
chimes with which they end their act
are decidedly rich and harmonious.
Tonight after the last dance, or at II
o'clock, there will be a special car for
Westerly. More and more Granite City
people have been making it point to
come up, not once. but several times a
week, and these will appreciate the late

BREED THEATER.
"a Man Without a Country" Monster
Feature Picture.

Beginning with today's matinee, the
Breed theater will show for the re-
mainder of the week, the wonderful
patriotic motion picture entitled The
Man Without a Country. This is a
free dramatiZation of the famous nov
ell of Edward Everett Hale's by the
same name. In the adaptation of the
great novel, its splendid theme has
been well preserved, and its inspira-
tion infused in every scene. No one
can see it without being a better cit
1zen, a better man or woman, so deep
ly does the pictured drama inculcate
a nobler and higher patriotism. No
expense has been spared to make the
production notable and worthy of its
subject. The scene depicting the deck
of an old-time frigate during battle
at sea is particularly strong, and Will
rank, in point of action, fidelity to ac-
tual conditions and thoroughly sus-
tanned interest, among the notewor-
thy achievements of the film makers
art.
Among the other excellent subjects
is the one entitled Joan of Arc,
beautiful and wonderfully acted pic
ture of some of the principal incidents
connected with the eventful life of the
Maid of Orleans, besides numerous
others, including some of the very best
comedy seen this season.
Master Harry Noonan, the wonderful
boy soprano, will appear in an entire
new programme of songs for the re-
mainder of the week, singing one of
the greatest popular hits of the day,
handsomely illustrated. and a brand
new concert song in which he sings
several high notes, which are nothing
short of marvellous.

pERBYs MILK SUPPLY.
Prof. Conn Says It Is a Disgrace to
Permit Sale Of Samples Tested by

Health Offieers F. A. Elmes, in
working to improve the milk supply
of Derby, recently sent ten samples Of
milk to Prof Conn, the state chem
list, to have it analysed. One or two
of these samples were taken from the
carts from which other samples had
been taken and tested and had proved
impure They were sent on to see If
there had been any improvement. The
other samples were taken from retail
ers, and were the first forwarded from
these places.
Prof. Conn's tests were anything but
satisfactory In fact, so poor was
the quality of the milk in each case,
and so full of bacteria which is at the
bottom of summer complaint that in
his report to Health Officer Elmes,
Prof. Conn wrote that it was a dis
grace for such milk to be sold to the
public.
DR. Elmes says in view of the report
there is nothing for him to do but to
enforce the law regulating the sale of
milk and he proposes to enforce 1t.
