s~entatives of American fertilizer cNm-

out result.
The German government owns five
potash mines and a government Off
cial, Herr Paxmann. is chairman of the
syndicate. Both the imperial and the
Prussian governments are embarrassed
by the attitude and the threats of the
, syndicate anager who are backed
by a group of the principal banks Of

and bonds OF the potash companies.
These urge the passing of imperial le-
gislation at the next session of the
fillment of the American contracts by
levying a producing tax to come into
! operation after the mines are sold.
The view of the government is that
no discriminating legislation against
American interests should be passed

two countries are in suspense.

It was Halloween and Sam and Peggy went out to call on thelr friends, Sam had intended to take Peggy for an auto ride but hls chauffeur had run the auto into a pair of bars and was stranded, so they decided to walk. The kids had to go along too, although they did present a forlorn appearance, one had a broken nose, two were so sleepy they had to keep winking and blinking their eyes to keep awake, another was a real Indian kid in all his war paint. Nevertheless Sam and Peggy had a good time. Peggy wore a handsome black skirt and lavender colored waist with auto hat to match. Her bright hair set on the hat to perfection, which was tied on with ribbons and a bow under her chin. Sam had fine black suit, hut his hat and coat seemed to cause him quite a little trouble. His hat was all the time in the way, not ouite as large as a cart wheel but very tall and decidedly top heavy: Their costumes were so unique and with their shiny black faces their friends did not recognize them and me Inf the kids took it upon himself act as informant.

The Halloween social given on Monday eveninga the home of Jerome Nichols was as unique and enjoyable affair as one could imagine. Alice's Wonderland was not more wonderful. Queerer figures were never seen. There were ghosts as white as sheets. There were witches. masculine and feminine. Horrid shapes fitted here and there. Little old women sat primly against the wall Little old men were as noisy as. Hendrix Hudson's rollicking crew. A family of colored friends were present. A wandering min strel, an adept with the violin, furnished untold amusement. A handsome colored bridearoom with his beaming bride ap- peared last of all. The prizes for the most ridiculous costume worn by the ladies was awarded to Mrs hoyal Curtlss ana for the most ridiculous garb among the gentlemen to Harry Powell. A short program was rendered consist ing of a sketch by MT Trail and Jer- ome Nichols, reading by Miss Esther !1ustafson and instrumental music by Messrs Powell and Nichols.

FOOTBALL.
High School Team Victorious

Last Saturday the Newtown High School football eleven met the New Milford High School team on the Fair Grounds. This was the third game of the season, the first being with the sophomores of Bridgeport High, when neither team scored, the second with the New Milford boys at New Milford which also resulted in a scoreless tie. Last Saturday, how ever, our boys carried off the victory with score of 8 to 0. Horace Smith distinguished himself by making the first score of the season by putting the ball over the goal line while it was in the hands of an opponent, and Herman Tiemann made the first touchdown by an end run from the S5 yeard line. The local team are to be greatly commended for their excellent work, especially ase they have had no coach.

LITCHFIELD LICENSE CASE. No-License Vote Declared Void.

Judge George w. Wheeler of the Superior court on Tuesdya handed down a decision declaring void the Litchfield vote on license, last month, which declared for No license" by a substantial majority. Judge Wheelers decision is lengthy and goes into detail. The principal req sons for his findings, however, are that the warning of the town meet ing was not published prior to the election according to the law, and also that the selectmen gave no mo- tice that a vote on the license ques- tion was to be taken at the annual town meeting.
