MEssINA AGAIN FIRE SWEPT
Survivors Of Earthquake There Suffer
Greatly.

! E -
Messina. Jan. 20 essina has been
swept by fire again. For many hours
soldiers and sailors worked heroically
to keep the flames from destroying the
last remnants of the town and event
ually they succeeded in getting the
fire under control. The extent of the
damage cannot be estimated because
doubtless much of great value was
burned up in the ruins It is sup
posed that smouldering embers in the
wreckage were famed into flame by
the strong wind that has prevailed
here for the past two or three days
and apparently the fire secured a
good foothold before efforts were
made to extinguish it. The flames
made fast progress and soon swept
through the remains of the beautiful
promenade along the harbor front
The small force of firemen was aug.
mented by detachments of soldiers
and sailors from the warships and
pumps and lines of hose were brought
ashore from the vessels.
The survivors of the earthquake
have been rendered more helpless by
the intensity of the cold. The hills
all about are white with snow anc.
the refugees are suffering greatly
Many of them are still living in tents
and with not sufficient clothing to
protect them. The constant cry is
for lumber for the construction ,of
huts and the government is doing
everything possible, but the need is
most urgent,

THANKSGIVING BALL
 BY HALLE CLUB.
Large Number Attended Brilliant Ar
 fair Held in Armory.

For the Thanksgiving ball of the Halle club the big drill shed at the armory was a charming picture of light and color on Friday evening as some four to five hundred dancers kept step to the music rendered by Miller's or chestra for the programme of eighteen numbers, which was concluded about half an hour after midnight. In the subdued light shed from numerous strings of Japanese lanterns hung across the hall the handsome gowns worn were seen in their loveliest effect, and the decorative scheme of ever- greens and rope of laurel added to the beauty of the picture.
 At the far end of the hall the or chestra was located in balcony dec- orated in evergreen and bearing upon it's front the electric sign Halle Club. Underneath the balcony a bank of ev- ergreen made a background for the reception committee. At intervals along the sides of the hall we're ever green and bundles of cornstalks upon which were pumpkin moonshines, and at the four corners were ropes of lau- rel, fastened with stalks of hollyhock flowers. The effective decorations were placed under the direction of Miss Grace S. Benjamin, general directress, and Miss Mary Richards, the social di- rectress, assisted by James J. Holland, Dr. Clarence B. Capron and James P. Sheridan.
 In the receiving line were Miss Rich ards. Daniel S. Haviland, Mrs. Daniel s. Haviland, Miss Benjamin, Leon Tav- ernier, Mrs. William c. Lanman, Mrs Charles D. Moves, Charles D. Moves, Mrs. William H. Shields and William H. Shields. The arriving guests were presented to them by the following ushers, who wore boutonieres and rib- bon badges of light blue, the club color: Walter Buckingham, Archa Colt, Nelson Parker, Frank Palmer, Joseph Leveen, James Sheridan, Will liam Frisbie, Raymond Eldred, Ever ett Byles. G. H. Stevens, Fred Kedney, Louis Carpenter, Clarence Messinger.
 At S.30 o'clock the grand march, in which 150 couples participated, was finely lead by James Kilrow and Miss Mary Kane, the president of the club. R. B. Dibble and Miss Ella Kirby were the second in line. Miss Kane was gold applique trimmings and Miss Kirby wore lowered silk with lace trimmings. The march was under the direction of James J. Hollan ]. dancing instructor for the club, who as master of ceremonies was also in charge of the well chosen dance programme which he had arranged. The follow ing were his capable aids: Frederick Friswell William Buckingham, Alfred Lillibrldge. Rutherford c. Plaut, Charles G. Cobb, James KiIrow and R. B. Dib- ble.
 The general arrangements commit- tee comprised Miss Mary Kane, chair man, and the Misses Bertha Wood- mansee, Bessie Crimes Lida Galley, Mary Sheriden, Mary Jewett, Susan I. Gallup. Josephine Welch, Bessie Ke- nealy, Nellie Grove and Mrs. E. C.. Baker.
 Ice cream ard orangeade were serv- ed during the evening by MT. and Madame Saunier, and the coat room was in charge of Harry Millea and Harry McCann. There was a special car for Taftvi1le after the ball.

CRIMINAL SUPERIOR COURT
 ADJOURNED WITHOUT DATE.
Judge Reed Gives Decision Overruline Demurrer in Case of State vs Addis Burns.

There was the concluding session of the crimir al superior court for the September term here on Friday, and at the conclusion the court was adjourn ed without date.
 The only matter to come up was that of the state vs. Addie Burns, in which the defense asked for a new trial, to which the state attorney entered de- murrer. Arguments on that demurrer had previously been made, and Friday Judge Reed overruled the demurrer, which means that the original motion for new trial will now be heard. This will require some testimony regarding the action of one of the jurors in the matter and on which the motion is based, but it will not come up until the January term. Addie Burns is in state prison, where she will continue to re- main.
 Judge Reed in his decision consid- cred that the motion should be tried out beyond demurrer as there are al- legations which should be inquired in- to. He says:
 "The petition should be tried upon the facts alleged. when all the circum- stances can be inquired, into and it seems that no further pleadings are necessary for this purpose. The at- tempt to try in on the demurrer has led counsel on both sides into the con- sideration of matters of fact not prop erly pertaining to the demurrer. For these reasons the demurrer is over- ruled"

RADIANT HAIR
New York Society Women's Hair
 Matched Only by ParisianS

For many years the clever women of Paris have been famed for the magni- ficent beauty of their fair.
 Glorious hair" a Virginian calls it; ''so radiant and ,luxuriant that 1t not only attracts but fascinates, and con- pels unstinted admiration.n
 But now that the elite of New York, ever anxious to improve their beauty, have learned that Parisian Sage, re- mafkable and almost marvellous hair nourisher and beautifiery is almost entirely responsible for the charming hair of the ladies of France, the de- mand for it has become enormous.
 A Philadelphia chemist who analysed Parisian Sage said: Tt is the ideal dressing for the hair. The ingredients are so scientifically combined that Parisian Sage is first of all hair grower, because it surely destroys dandruff germs, and nourishes the hair roots''
 / Second, it puts life. substance and 'brilliancy into the hair, which im- proves the attractiveness of any one"
 Third, it is very delicately scented: is not particle sticky or greasy, and does not contain one atom of anything that could possibly injure scalp or hair"
 Parisian Sage is now sold all over America by progressive druggists. and in Norwich by The Lee & Osgood Co.,, who is glad to guarantee it to eradi- cate dandruff, stop falling hair and itching scalp in two weeks or money back.
 Price 50 cents. Made in America by Giroux Mfg. Co, Buffalo, N. Y, who fill mail orders. The girl with the Auburn hair is on every package.

 Congressman Higgins.
 After an orchestral selection, Con- gressmRn Higgins was the next speaker, winning the enthusiastic ap- plause of his audience as he com mended the Citizens corps as some thing which every man should join and make it's membership here 2S0 in- stead of SO. He told the veterans from Westerly that no one had done more for the old soldiers than their congressman, Adin B. Capron and they ought to keep him in congress. He pledged himself to do everything pos sible for the old soldiers, as he be- lieved the government could not do too much for them, and it would be their own fault if they, did not call upon him for anything he could do in his official capacity.
 Several Other Speakers.
 Addresses brimful of patriotic utter ances, which brought out thunders or applause from the Grand Army men, were also made by Dr. Hartman, MT. Robbins and Judge Comstock. who each referred to the honor they felt had been done them fin allowing them mem bership in the Citizens corps.
 About this time Conrade J. Herbert George was seen in the room and brought forward to sing the old favor ite, The Old Coffee Kettle, with all the veterans joining in the chorus. There was also recitation Are We Free? well rendered by Comrade James liar vey. after which America was sung as the closing number of the pro- gramme.
 A short social hour followed before the Westerly men left on their special car at 1915 o'clock.
