Never allow the sand to dry out as

Pot OF the cuttings before the roots
have grown too long. When short
there is much less danger Of injury In
moving. One noted grower advises
potting almost as soon as roots are
formed, even when small as half an
inch. Delay usually means weak
plants and tho hardened roots take
less quickly to the soil.
Use small pots from two to two and

 The Spanish artillery continues to lombard Mt George. the headquarters of the Moor's positions. Several mod ern guns of French construction have arrived here. but the Spanish artil- lerymen are having considerable diffi- culty in learning how to manipulate them.

CONNECTICUT TROOPS DEPART.
Embarked at New Haven to Join the
 "Red Army"

New Haven. Aug. 14.-Not, perhaps, since the days of the Civil war has New Haven presented such a martial appearance as it assumed late last night and early this morning when the mill itiamen from all parts of the state rendezvoused here preparatory to em- barking for the Massachusetts coats where they will join the Red army in their attack on Boston, which is being defneded by the Blue army.
 With the exception of the Governors Foot Guard and the Coast Artillery the armories of the other organizations of the state began late yesterday aft ernoon to assume a warlike appearance that boded- ill for the army of the Blue in the coming conflict. A final inspection of uniforms and arms was made and much thought given to the necessities to be put in the blanket rolls, it being a hard problem to take everything that seemed necessary and yet have that part of the equipment as light as possible. A late order re- ceived today allowed the men to take blouses as a protection against cool weather. Another indication that the coming manoeuvres will not be all play was given the last thing before leaving the armorieS when the men were pre- sented with picks, shovels and axes
 The first of the Red army to leave was Troop A cavalry, under the com mand of Captain Luzerne Ludington. The troop accompanied by the field ar- tillery, the Branford battery and the Guilford Coast guards, boarded the steamer City of Taunton shortly after one o'clock. Troop A will join the cavalry division which will be com posed of New York and New Jersey companies and g. squadron of the Tenth cavalry U. s. A.. the colored troops v.o1or7f1rx al ha
 The main body of the First reg'- ment left Hartford shortly after twelve o'clock, being joined on their arrival here by Company M of Winsted. A special from Waterbury brought in Companies A and G of the Second regi- ment of that place and Company NJ of Torrington, of the same regiment. The Middle'cwn, Meriden and Walling- ford companies of the Second came in on special shortly after two o'clock.
 On the arrival of the troops they marched to Belle dock where they boarded the General Nathanael Greene and General Harvey Brown and were taken out to the transport Mead, an- chored about six miles out in the har- bor. The out of town troops were joined on the Mead by the local com- panies of the Second regiment and the start for the seat of war made

A KIDNAPPER CAPTURED.
After Exciting Chase Through Two
 New Hampshire Towns.

Laconia, N. H., Aug. 13.-An excit- ing chase for an alleged kidnapper. which led through three towns. ended tonight in the arrest at Hilton of Fred Sargent, formerly of this town, who is accused of having taken his young son from the custody of his former wife The child, Clarence, aged 1-2 years was returned to the home of it's moth CT in Laconia, and Sargent was brought here and locked up pending proceedings which County Attorney Frank P. Hilton vii institute in court tomorrow. Mrs. Sargent obtained a divorce from her husband on statu- tory grounds about a year ago, and the custody of the child was given her by the court at that time. Sar- gent is 30 years old, and has recently been living in Norfolk, Va. He was married here five years ago to Rose E. Gordon, daughter of D. T. Gordon, a farmer. and two children were born, Clarence, and a younger one named Lester. A year and a half ago Sargent disappeared. taking the older boy with him, and at the same time Mrs. Eva Gordon, Mrs. Sargents mother, departed mysteriously
 After Mrs. Sargent obtained her di- vorce, she learned some time last Jan uary that her husband and mother were living in Norfolk. Va. and go- ing to that city she secured their ar rest. After securing the child, Clar-. ence, Mrs. Sargent returned to La eonia and has since been living with her father.
 It was while the two children were playing on the lawn and the other members of the family were at dinner today that the elder boy suddenly vanished. It was learned that he had been carried off by a man in buggy The carriage was traced by the tele- phone and Sargent arrested

who were employed on the cars to be used in the Hudson tunnels in New York city, left their work refusing to work with the alleged strike breakers.
 The strike breakers were put to work at noon. They will receive from S1.75 to day. Tobacco will be furnished free and a hotel near tile car plant will furnish commissary sup plies.
 Claimed New Men Are Deserting.
 It is claimed by the strie leaders that assertions of the imported men began shortly after noon when a score or Ire strike breakers s> >aled the stock ade surrounding the car plant and joined the ranks of the striking men,
 Evictions Continus.
 The sheriff of Allegheny county. as- sisted by twenty negroes hired by the Pressed Steel Car company, resumed eviction proceedings late today and at dusk moved the late of the forty seven ericted strikers from ;he car cor pany houses. Over eighty loads of furniture and property of the evicted strikers and their families lies tonight unshel- tered in Schoenville. Rain will prob ably fall before morning.
 The state constabu1ary aided by deputy sheriffs established regular sentry beats about the car plant to- night Little trouble is anticipated bv the authorities, however. The general consensus of orininn is tEat the back bone of the strike is nearing an end. If the car company succeeds in filling the plant tonight and t:nurrow with strike breakers, the striking employees of the company have lost their only hold on the company, it is asserted.

LIST OF SUPERVISORS.
Approved by President Taft at Confer
 ence Last Niqht.

Beverly, Mass, Aug. 13.-At an ex- tended conference tonight with Sec retary Nagel of the department of commerce and labor, Postmaster Gen. eral Hitchcock and l.. Dana Durand, director of the census, President Taft approved the appointment of $50 super visors of the thirteenth census. The list had been prepared at Washington for the president and the qualifications of every man inquired into There were some vacant districts in Ken lucky, however, when the two cabinet officers and the director of the censu; arrived in Beverly this afternoon. and these were put up to the president for settlement.
 When 1t is considered that each cen- sus supervisor will have a tremendous field force of enumerators under him. the extent of the census patronage may be readily realized.
 Each of the supervisors will receive a salary of $2,000 and their work will extend over eight or ten months. The enumerators will not have so long a service.
 In most of the states supervisors are appointed in each congressional tns- trict. This system does not prevail in New England. Maine, for instance. has but two supervisors. while Massachu- setts, New Hampshire, Vermont and Rhode Island have but one each.
 Director Durand said today that he hoped to have, the supervisors actively al work by the middle of October.
 The conference at the Taft cottage did not begin until nearly g o'clock tonight and continued until a late hour

SLOWLY BECOMING PETRIFIED.
Two Cases in Worcester Puzzlins to
 Medical Fraternity.

Worcester, Mass, Aug. 1S.-The at- tention of the medical fraternity in this city is concentrated on the cases of two persons in Worcester hospitals. The most peculiar and bafling of the two is that of a man supposed to be Jan Mazoinkivecz. who is slowly be- coming petrifed at the City hospital, The man was taken into the hospital on Wednesday in a stupor, unable to speak or even move his features, and apparently with no sense of feeling. Since then he has not moved any part of his body. has taken no nourishment and is impregnable to pin thrusts. blows and other injuries to his body, and oblivious of his surroundings.
 The physicians are unable to dag nose his case. His case was first thought to be dementia preacox, but this theory is now doubted. Nothing is known about the man or tho where abouts of his friends or relatives. The physicians say that he may remain in this state for several months.
 The other case is that of Mrs Adolphus Lattrell of Winchendon, who is i'll at St. Vincents hospital with pellagra, rare disease in this country. although common in Europe, and par ticulary in Spain. In Lombardy there are 10000 cases of the disease, but 1t is only since 1907 that 1t has been known in this country.
 Pellagra is believed to be caused by fungus that grows on maize, also from inferior grades of cereal. while other cases are brought on by unhy- gienic home life. The disease is en- demic. often beginning in childhood, but is not contagious.
 It is not believed Mrs. Lattrell will recover

END OF ENcAMPMENT.
Grand Army Men Preparing to Leave for Their Homes-Next Encouragement at Atlantic City.

Salt Lake City, Utah, Aug. 1S.-The Grand Army of the Republic was en- gagged today in winding up the busi- ness of the annual encamrment prep aratory to the farewell handclasps to- morrow.
 It has yet to elect a national chap lain. Atlantic City was chosen for the encampment of 1910.
 An effectual attempt was made yes- terday to abolish the custom of elect ing a senior ice-commander from the department acting as host of the en- campment. The principal attack on the precedent was made by s. B. Beach. commander of the department of Pennsylvania. The convention elected ". M. Gostaph of Utah as senior vice commander
 In ratifying the nominations made yesterday the Daughters of Veterans will elect Minnie Prescott Guittard ot Alliance. Ohio, president, to succeed Clara F. Hoover, who declined a re- nomination.
