THERE HAD BEEN OTHERS

An old darby named Nose White,
in one of the southern states, walked
down the main street one morning in
his best black broadcloth suit, with a
white rose in his buttonhole and cot
ton gloves on his large hands.
"Why, Nose" said the proprietor of
q large store that he was passing.
"Are you taking a holiday?"
"Dish yere," said the old man, In a
stately voice, lam nah golden weddin',
sab Ah'm sallybratin' hit"
"Rut your wife," said ne store
keeper, "is working, as usual. 1 saw

ing. Why isn't she celebrating, too?"

Tip" is unknown there. The tourist
has not appeared in Finland in any
great numbers, and consequently the
commercial spirit which his advent al
ways arouses is absent. AS an exam
pie OF this a Finnish lady tells an
amusing story.
Two English friends, whom she had
met while over here, had been staying
with her at her house in Helslngfors,
and on leaving gave the maid tip. The
girl was very much astonished and did
not know what it meant. Seeing her
mistress son coming downstairs, she
ran to him and said
"They gave me money Did they
give you any?"
Hearing they had not done so, she
was very much mystified.
IT cannot understand why they gave
it to me and not to you, when they
know you much better than mel! was
her perplexed comment on the incident.

ROOSEVELT AHEAD
 OF HIS SCHEDULE
 ARRIVES AT GENOA

Genoa, April s-Colonel Roosevelt arrived unexpectedly in Genoa at 5 o'clock this afternoon, "A hours ahead of his schedule. He declared he was simply driven here by the hospitality of the Italian people. Instead of the expected privacy in his carriage and automobile trip from SDezia he and his by crowds of villagers. who brought flowers and bore Italian mottoes of welcome. Even the country roads were lined with the peasants and the Colonel and his wife found it practi- cally impossible to adhere to their plan of revisiting all the places in which they spent their honeymoon nearly a quarter of a century ago.
 Despite the fact that their plans were thus upset, the Colonel and his wife greatly appreciated the hospi- tality of the people. The couple went to the Britannia Hotel in Genoa, where States Consul Smith, the prefect and several of the city officials. The vel come was wholly informal as the Col onel was not expected until tomorrow.
 Tomorrow morning the Colonel and his wife will leave by train for Porto Maurizio to visit Mrs. Roosevelt's sister, Miss Carew. At Porto Maurizio they will be rejoined by Kermit and Ethel Roosevelt.
 A group of Italian newspapermen called on the Colonel this. afternoon. but the only story they got from him was an experience at Rapa1lo this cabman 1ured him and his wife into his cab and drove them to a different hotel from that at which they had intended to stop.

Negligent Auto Tourists
 Nailed by Cops in Center
 Are Fined $5 and Costs
fContinued from Page 1.)

In the case of the out of town pris- oners, the cars contained parties on tour. They violated the law in ignor- snce of it's provisions. The New York CTS believed they had 10 days in Con Decticut as non-residents before being obliged to comply with the Connecticut law, and they did not know that the Connecticut law required that mum bers be displayed at both front and rear of the cars, instead of only at the rear the New York law requires. Judge Foster imposed fines of $5 and today, save that of James Dennis. the coal merchant. Dennis was warned that arrests were being made, before he reached the center of the city. and stopped at a garage to secure er1liglat- enment on the law. He was advised to go the police headquarters for in- under arrest. So the court allowed the case to be nolled on payment of the costs, about $5.
 Tn passing sentence Judge Foster said: ''I feel that this automobile law ought to be obeyed in every particu- lar, because it is well known not only to the courts but to the autonobilists that the men who made the law spent a great deal of time upon it. As we all know it's purpose has been thor oughly threshed over before being en- acted. Furthermore, every State has it's laws on automobiles and the own CTS and operators of automobiles know in passing from one State to another the burden is distinctly upon them of making themselves familiar with the laws Of the State they are about to enter before entering the same.''
 ttOf course,'' the judge continued, stthe mere fact of there being one mar ker instead of two, is a. slight offence in itself, but if it was of sufficient importance to be enacted into the law i+ is of sufficient importance to be en- forced.''
 Farrell appealed from the ruling of the court. He was represented by Att torney Davis s. Day. He brought a OlY1 her dav to visit with a local Y. M. c. A. official.
 The arrest of Robert S. Taylor oc- cured when he drove up to the cor ner of Fairfield avenue and Main street, brought his car to a halt and incurred of Sergeant Hazel the way to Providence. The sergeant had sighted the car in the distance and saw there was a marker absent, and to the surprise of Taylor who however took his predicalnent in good part. the sas.reant took him to headuuarters.

SNOW TONIGHT

The gink that wrote "April showers
 bring forth May flowers had nothing on Old Doc Cook. He forgot to pro-
 duce his proofs that only in the fourth
 month of the year we can have show
 CTS and sunshine. Let us all join in
 and sing April isn't April any More" To be up to date, the twentieth cen- tlry stuff, we have to be little diff ferent in our seasons than in the past,
 accordingly the man who gives the

We will stand for little cold weather at this season of the year but for snow, nev- CT.
 Some of the thermometers read that we are at least 30 degrees below normal, and that if we go at least few more degrees lower we will have lee. This low depression start ed with us yesterday about noon. The morning after a glorious day frightened up to his predecessor, but on towards noon, bleek looking clouds began to make their appearance.
 The wind started in on it's course, l making the thinly clad, shiver for want of more rainment. The self reg isterfng thermometer at F. Lyman's l at 920 Main street, told us that at 3 D. m. Wednesday afternoon that the gentle zephyrs were hitting for 66 de- grees. Yesterday afternoon, at the same hour. they had fallen off con 1 dropping to 56 degrees. To- 1 day, the same register at D. m. gave i out the intelligence that another drop | of ten had been recorded, the ther- nometer being down at 46 degrees, and making strong efforts to get low CT.
