REFORM MOVEMENT ON
 IN NORTH SToNINGToN
Lafayette Main to Address Townsmen Before Special Town Meeting is Called.

On Wednesday The Bulletin received a letter from Lafayette. F. Main re- garding an address he is to make to the citizens of North Stonington pre- ceding the special town meeting this week. In his letter he writes "Satur- day, December 26, 1910," burt it is not believed he would have issued his lit l erature so far in advance, and 1t is probable that he meant March instead of December.
 The letter is as follows:
 Lafayette F. Main says he considers it will be for the interest of all the legal voters of the town of North Stonington to be present at the special town meeting on Saturday (Dec. 26, 1910), and if they will get together at 12 o'clock he will be there to give a lecture for the benefit of the people who must pay a IT mill tax on a dollar He will then explain what the meeting was called for and also what benefit can be derived from the same and says he will be able to show to the people some facts to prove to them that he is working with a free good will for the benefit of the citizens of the town of North Stonington. He further says are working for the benefit of our children that we are bringing up to live in the, town of North Stonington or not Don't miss being on hand to protect your property for your chi1- dren you leave behind to fight the battle of life alone. Remember the day, Saturday, Dec. CD 26, 1910, at 1 p. m, for the meeting. The lecture will be given between 12 and 1 o'clock"
 The petitioners for the meeting, among whom are Lafayette Main, want to have auditors appointed for the town books who are not town officials or residents of the town, and they would also order that the selectmen take five mills of the tax and set it aside for the reduction of the town debt.
 
 help to lead the reform movement One of the North Stonington voters said regarding the address that Lafayette would not be given a. hearing, as it was planned to adjourn the meeting before he and his followers even knew what was doing.

The end seems to be Tn sIgnt in the Miller divorce case, which has occu- pied the attention of Judge Greene in the superior court for four weeks. Ii is thought the evidence may be fin ished today and the arguments made at some other time, but there remain possible that the testimony will not be finished today.

Miller on two different occasions. He recalled that on one Sunday night in 1905 Mrs. Miller was talking about immortality and Bible pictures. She finally got the He saw the pictures and said they were immoral, but the latter part of his answer Judge Greene ordered stricken out MT. Miller told her to put the book up, which she did.
 On the second time he worked for Mr. Miller Mrs. Miller told him he would have to sleep with Mr. Miller, as she could not attend to his room- There was also trouble over some johnnycakes and Mir. Miller led his wife into the sitting room after she had threatened to put the witness out of the house. He said that while sit- ting on a. rock where Mrs. Miller could see him that she threw a basin of water on his new coat and also had swept dust in his face and shook a broom at him. Mrs Miller laughed as she threw the water. The first time he was ethere he complained because Mrs. Miller didn't make. his bed, and on the second time he slept with MT Miller from July to Nov. 27. MT. Miller never swore or used profane language to his wife.
 Fred NJ. Oat told of being at the Miller place one day when Mrs Miller threw water on to him as he was watching the pigeons She told him to go home and tell his mother about it.
 Found Fault All the Time.
 Mrs. Estelle Wheeler sister of the defendant, testified that she visited at her brothers and about four years ago his wife found fault about him contin- ually. She at one time said that he washed his own overalls. She had never told her brother, but Mrs. Miller had intimated that Mrs. Wheeler would tell him.
 Mrs. Edith Miller, sister-in-Iaw of the defendant, told of visits to the Miller place and of statements by Mrs Miller regarding her husband and his actions with the men. She told of talking with Mrs. Miller and telling her she didn't believe all that she heard about the tongue fights. The witness has talked with Kelsey Fil- more and he denied the stories. She heard Mrs. Miller order Fillmore out of the house one day without any din- her. Mrs Miller had said she could put MT. Miller in prison for his action with the boys.
 On one occasion she heard Mrs. Mil Ter say to Fillmore: T would have had you in jail long ago if it was not for your old mother
