GIVES UP WIFE AS HOPELESS
Wealthy Colchester Man De- cides to Try to Save Children But Thinks Mother Will Re- pent

Hartford, Nov. 17-Samuel McDon- aid, a Colchester lumberman and prominent Republican politician and Assemblyman, has returned from Phil- adelphia, where his wife, Mrs. Emma Loveland Mcdonald, had been arrested in the company of two men accused as burglars
 said MT. Mcdonald. "I have given up my wife for the present and will per init her to have her own fling. She left me on Labor Day without warn ing and without provocation, for every body in Colchester will tell you have done everything possible for her and my children
 At any rate, I followed her to Roch- ester, and she promised to return with me if l would give her two days to go to Vermont to see our two sons, who are in school there. Though she all ready had 1000 in cash and about $1,- 800 in negotiable securities and jewelry, gave her more money and truly ex- pected her home. Instead she became entangled with two men and they did job in Rochester. She got away with them, landing in Philadelphia.
 'I discovered her whereabouts through letters my eldest daughter re- year-old girl she took with her. I argued and pleaded Tuesday night un- til l had no shame or self respect left, but it was useless. I think it is better to save my children than my wife if I can, but. God knows. I have hopes and really believe that she will soon return to me and her children"

 YEARS OF PEACE

John D. Gluck, director of the Bu- Der of the joint committee Canadian Club. Bureau of National Industries, The National Committee for the Cele. bration of One Hundred Years of Peace. New York Peace Society and the American Peace & Arbitration League, entertained several New Eng land newspaper men at a banquet given Tuesday night at the Hotel As tor in the interests of International peace promotion.
 MT. Gluck stated that he believed in the promotion of peace. That he be- lieved in it's promotion under one or ganization which will operate in direct supervision over its constituents. He does not believe in the formation of all sorts and kinds of leagues and so- c cities to prosecute such a work. In this respect, he is informed that a new International organization is in pro- gress of organization the promoters of which are assured of unqualified sup port, financial and otherwise. It is their intention to have all of this work come under one head and to create one Internationa tribunal and many National tribunals thus eliIni- hating the society supported secretary of today who may be in a position to do much harm if he elects to meddle. MT. Gluck says:
 The matter of the celebration of one hundred years of peace has the unqualified support of this bureau. That is a specific object and a good

UNWARRANTED ATTACK MADE ON
 DIRECTOR KENNY

Recently the Republican Standard printed an attack on Director M. A. Kenny for not grading the extension Of William street through a patch of woods north of Roosevelt street. On another page in the same issue it car ried Director Kenny's advertisement for bids to perform the work. In last nights ssue the Republican party or gan printed an item to the effect that it's 'exposure' of the directors "dilatory" tactics had caused him to ask for bids
 Director Kenny has long been ac- credited with being shrewd man, but this is the first time that it has been int mated he was capable of clalrvoyance. He sent his advertise ment to the Standard in the morning and he was criticised in the afternoon for not starting the work. Director every hand for the fine condition of the large number of streets he has built and improved during the sum- mer, allowed the grading of William street extension to go to the last thing. It will be several years be- fore William street extension is ready to be traversed. It is yawning chasm that will require many thou sand of loads of dirt to fill. The Board of Apportionment is endearor- ing to have the street brought to grade piecemeal and last year appro- priated $1,00O for the work. For this year it appropriated another s1,00O. The money is for that specific pur- pose and can not be used for any other purpose.
 The director knew he would get more competition for the work if he waited until the majority of the con- tractors got through their summers work. The result was that he got five bids. John Costigan put in a bid of STA and The Burns Co. bid on the unit basis and may be the lowest bid-

 "A sentiment Of perpetual peace be- tween England, Canada and the Uni tfment will continue to grow and many celebrations, public meetings, etc., are being planned. We are as- sured of continued peace among the English speaking peoples and we must guarantee our peace by means of pro- lection against the millions of invest mentS and who absolutely control the merchant marine of the Pacific coast. the Panama Canal making out of the Pacific g Japanese Lake.

To these gentlemen let me state that no one fears war among the Engl sh speaking peoples today That is a bloody war The act of whole sale extermination of human life The wars of the past have been for terri tory. The wars of the future will be for markets, they will be bloodless but nevertheless as intense. A war for markets of the world will be wag- ed between this country and England Germany, France and Austria. The Far East situation does not come un- der this head. Here We have a peo- pie who are aroused over night 4 people of millions and a nation whose shops turn out anything from needle to a battlesh;p, whose men work for eight cents a day and whose mer- in their own ships on the Pacific coast, two hundred thousand men to our complement of less than ten thou sand men.

The company is a large and excellent one, numbering we'll to Bridgeport under the auspices of the local Shriners, and it promises to be the most noteworthy offering that they have ever brought to this city. A large sale of seats is reported, though there still remains many choice and medium priced seats.
 
 "The Country Boy"
 The Thanksgiving Day attraction at Jackson's Theatre will be Henry B. famous comedy success, '"The Country Boy" which has proven the one lasting comedy hit of the cur rent season in New York city, and where it has played continuously since last August at the Liberty Theatre, New York to nightly crowd ed houses. It has been proclaimed one of the biggest comedy hits that has been produced in the past decade of theatricals and will undoubtedly bring MT. Harris another fortune, similar to that which he reaped with The Lion and the Mousse" The cast which will present the play here is a most excellent one and has been pro- nounced in many places superior to the company which is now present. ing the play in New York city. The sale of seats for this engagement starts on next Monday morning.
