An amendment was urged on the seed

lost crops by hail. Governor Burke be-
lieves the law should include aid to the

FIRST FLOOR OF SHANNON BUILDING
Reinforced Concrete s Being Rushed Along Fast Possible After Delay Waiting for Steel-Prosress on Other Construction Work.

After having been delayed for some time by the non-arrival of the rein forcing for the new freproof building which J. B. Shannon is erecting on the site of the one which was burned, the contractors have received their mate rial and are now. hustling the job along as fast as possible. The wooden forms for the first floor have been in place for several days and a number of the upright supports for the floor had been filled with concrete and the steel rein- forcements. The power concrete mixer which was started Thursday, but gave out, was in operation Friday and sec- ton of the floor at the back was laid, the men working until well along in the evening to get that portion com pleted. By having a mixer operated by power the work can be hustled. The cement, gravel and sand go into hopper with a certain quantity of water and after few revolutions come out properly mixed and are dumped into a scoop which is operated in the ele- vator shaft. This is raised to the shute through which the concrete is poured Into Wheelbarrows and. then wheeled to the location on the floor where the forms are being filled, in which the steelwork is first placed in position.
 The work is watched by large num- Der throughout the day, it being some thing new in this section on such large scale.
 At the Plaut- Gladden. building the outside work is about completed. The roof is on the building and as soon as the front is completed work will be started on the inside finish.
 The contractor has the work well along on the new storage building for the w H. Page Boiler company off North Main street. The company ex- poets to be installed there by the first of September. when it gives up it's present building in Chestnut street and avenue.
 At the Hopkins & Allen Arms com pany's plant the raising of the Frank lin street wing one story has been fir- ished and the new joof is on. The old roof, by changing the rafters, became

 Joseph Gelino has installed min iature railroad, consisting of a car and track at his home on Schofield hill by means of which he is carting away sand from the bank in the rear of his house.
 George Ring of North Main street is at present indulging in the running craze, and bids fair after a little training, to smash all the records of his competitors. In his street clothes and shoes, with only his coat removed, he ran five miles on the fair grounds track in 32 minutes 10 seconds. The time is authentic, as the stop watch was held by a well known sporting man,
 The many friends of Frank Yeo- mans of Central avenue are glad to hear that he is recovering from a gun shot wound in the leg. The accident happened while MT. Yeomans was wis., iting friends in Hampton Memorial day and with one of them was shoot ing at bottle with a 32-cal. revolver. The friend thought there were five cylinders and instead there were six, and he pulled the trigger, hitting MT. Yeomans, who is still carrying the bullet in his leg.

 At the new industrial building which will be occupied by the silk concern coming from Westerly work is being pushed along. as fast as possible. The patchwork isN done and the roof has been placed over more than half of the building. This three story building, including the basement, will be the means of bringing to Norwich an in- dustry which it is believed will expand considerably in a few years, and to F.. W. Browning is due the thanks of the community for his aggressive ability in this line.
 At the De1-Hoff hotel the changes on the first floor are gradually being made. The entrance has been changed this week from the center to the south side of the front and there has been a gen. eral changing about on the ground floor preparatory to the finishing.
 At the probate court room there are extensive changes being made. A new steel ceiling is being put in and the walls will be painted and the entire room will be put in shape similar to the office of the town clerk. While the changes are under way the probate office is in the town clerks office.

LADIES. WHY NOT PRESERVE
 YOUR YOUTH AND BEAUTY?

 Nothing so detracts from the attrac- tiveness of women as. dull, faded, lus- terless hair.
 There is no excuse for this condition nowadays, because notice is hereby given to the readers of Norwich that Partisan Sage, the quick acting hair restorer, is now On sale in NorWlcn at the drug store of The. Lee & Os- good Co, and is sold with a rigid guar antee at 50 cents bottle.
 Since it's introduction into America, Parisian Sage has had an immense sale, and here are the reasons:
 It is safe and harmless.
 It cures dandruff in two weeks, by killing the dandruff germ.
 It stops falling hair.
 It promptly stops itching of the scalp.
 It makes the hair soft, glossy and luxuriant.
 It gives life and beauty to the hair. It is not sticky or greasy.
 It is the daintiest perfumed hair tonic made
 It is the best, the most pleasant and irvigor7ting hair dressing made.
 For sale by leading druggists every where. The girl with the Auburn hair is on every package.
 Fight shy of the druggist who offers you substitute; he is unworthy of your confidence.
 This is what Mrs Elizabeth E. An derson. Mechanicsburg. Pa, writes: T had given up hope of ever being cured cf dandruff, when I purchased a bot tie of Parisian Sage. 1t has entirely removed the dandruff, and has started a growth of new hair, and all this aft CT having been troubled for 15 years. cheerfully recommend Parisian Sage"

Highway Commissioner Macdonald in Town.

State Highway Commissioner James H. Macdonald was in town Friday aft ernoon. After having inspected a sec tfon of road at Occum, he traversed the road on the east side of the Thames to Groton to look it over for new estimate of the cost of con- struction. Commissioner Macdonald said that at the request of the board of trade and the business men and automobile owners of Norwich he rad surveyed the road on the west side of the river, and that the work there would be completed first He believes in these parallel roads, and will then give his consideration to the road on the east side of the river. which will be an expensive road to build, because of it's closeness to the river. its sawmpy spots and primitive condi- tion, and the pile-driving, bisding walls and other exceptional expenses. will carry the cost to something like $1T5,000 He will do all that in his power lies to promote this road, but it must awit its turn. as in the com missioners office order is the first law, He cannot do as others would have him, but must move in accord with his plans, under the law, the cooper ation of the towns, and his appropria- tions.
