NATIONAL
GUARD TO
The FRONT
GREELEY WILL HAVE AT LEAST
ONE REPRESENTATIVE
ARE OROERERED TO SAN DIEGO
Three Officers Will go at Once and
Others are Expected to Be Sent
Within the Next Few
Days

Greeley probably will have at
least one representative at the front
in case there should be trouble with
Mexico. Major G. G. Townsend ex-
poets to receive the long looked for
word at any moment and will go so
soon as the orders come.
Gen. John Chase of Colorado ma
tional guard has received 1nstruc-
tions from the war department at
Washington for officers of the guard
to proceed to San Diego to receive
instructions in the mobilization
camp established at that point.
Three officers will leave within a
few days for the camp and will be
relieved every two weeks by other
officers.
Colonel w. A. Davis of Colorado
Springs, of the second infantry; Cap
tain P. H. Hamrock of Denver, of
the first infantry, and Lieutenant H.
C. Nickerson of Colorado Springs, OF
the second infantry, will be the first
to go. The government will pay all
expenses OF the state militia officers
until it's appropriation for that pur-
pose is exhausted. Thereafter the
state will be expected to stand the
cost
General Chase said the instruc
tions provided that the officers o
the national guard in the state ives
of line passing north and sout
through Denver shall report at tn
mobilization camp at San Diego
Calf. There are 1000 men en-
camped at that point consisting o
two infantry regiments and pro
visional regiment made up from tht
coast artillery.

No word regarding the calling Of
q grand jury had been received from
Judge Graham to the hour of going
to press. However, this seems to be
q mero detail now, since 1t Is believ-
ed that the calling of a jury will be
insisted upon by others than those
who madc the plea first. Probably
uncOnsciouSly, the Gum Shoe Bri-
gade hit upon a popular sentiment.
Although the city election is less
than y week OFF. it seems to have
lapsed into a state described by n
some time since democratic presi-
congress. 1t is believed. however,
that the straight republican vote
will be materially diminished by the
recent turn events have taken. II
would appear that straight republi-
can StOCks have suffered a slump In
the political market, this condition
beiAg due chiefly to the refusal OF
many republicans to stand further
for the rough work of the Gum ShO<
Praeade.

When the lid Topped loose from

commotion within the ranks of the

lieved that all was lovely after they
had inveigled their official organ in
to a mild statement OF how sweet
they all were and had not figured
that some real mean newspaper
might publish the whole story.
They don't like all of any story in

From talk throughout the busi-

Health Department Preparing In

People at Large to Keep
Down the Pests

Plans for keeping the house fly at
a minimum in Greeley this summer
are under way by the city health
commissioner and within a few days
official announcement will be made
ON how to keep away this poisonous
pest.
In nearly every city of conse-
quence in the country the fly is in
such bad repute that organized war
fare is being made on HIM. Scien-
lists have discovered that from be-
ing the harmless insect 1t was for a
long time believed. the ny 10 an &C.

Swat the fly" is the slogan adopt
ed in most of the cities where a con-
certed effort is being made to elimi-
nate the pest. This is posted in
street cars. offices. and all public
places. With the millions of flies
that infect every community, 1t is
necessary for every able bodied per-
son to become a committee of one
on determination.
Early in the spring the health
commissioner sent out notices to
owners of stock requesting that they
screen their manure piles and to
watch closely the breeding places of
flies. other notices are being pre-
pared, as it is necessary to impress
on the people at large that everyone
must help in the campaign.
While it is believed to be impos-
sible to keep out the flies absolutely

READING BY PROF. CROSBY
OF MERCHANT OF VENICE
Given for Benefit of Norwich Pupils
Reading Circle Which Will Re-
ceive Entire Net Proceeds.

There was good attendance at
Slater hall on Tuesday evening and a
thorough enjoyment of the reading
given by Prof. Thomas Crosby, Jr of
the English department of Brown uni
yersity. This first reading was The
Merchant of Venice, and the second is
to be a more modern composition, The
Liars, which is one of Professor Cros-
by's best efforts. The date for this
Principal Hopson announced in his in
PRODUCTION Of the speaker, has been
changed from May I'd to May 9Th on
account of prize reading at the univer-
sity coming on the former date. Those
who had the pleasure of hearing Pro-
fessor Crosby at his first visit to Nor
witch year ago We're glad to welcome
his temperance and others were well
pleased with his Interpretation of the
familiar Shakespearean drama as given
on Tuesday evening. His characters
were we'll delfneated and his concep-
ton of POrtia was rather an improve
ment upon the usual type-givfng her
more of a sense of humor and a spirit
of fun and mischief which gave life
and variety to the play. His reading
could not fail to give one a better
understanding of the play as a whole
and deeper respect for the brilliant
author of the lines.
These readings are given by the
Principals club for the financial bene-
fit of the newly organized Norwich
Pupils Reading circle.
The reading was educative, interest
ing and entertaining. Nothing superior
in this line of public entertainment can
be secured and Professor Crosby is
equal if not superior to anyone who
attempts this work. He is thorough
Shakespearean scholar, teaching
Shakes pearean courses at Brown uni
versity. He is also close student of
the drama, old and new, and offers
courses at college dealing with this.
In addition he spent two years study
ing for the stage. He has the power
of Interpretation and portrayal of what
he reads. His readings are delightful
and wherever he is known. they are an
attraction. The club is to be congrat-
luated upon accom- piishing two good
things in bringing Professor Crosby to
Norwich-they are offering a. high
class attraction and are devoting the
entire proceeds to the furtherance of a
work that wiil,mean much to the boys
and girls of this city.
Last spring the Principals club
started the Norwich Pupils Reading
circle. This circle is made up of the
boys and girls in the schools of the
entire town. The purpose is to create
and cultivate the habit of reading good
books. Most children are bound to
read. What they read depends upon
the guidance furnished them sin the
habit-forining period of childhood and
youth. This circle is designed to meet
this need. There is considerable ex-
pense attached to furnishing diplomas.
reading lists. certificates, seals and
other essentials and the entire net pro-
ceeds of these readings will be turned
over in whole to this work. The idea
is an excellent one and the public who
are interested In the boys and girls feel
1t should be encouraged.

LECTURE BY DR.. CASSIDY.
Subject Was Social Hygiene and he
Spoke Before Gathering OF Men at
Second Church..

In response to invitations sent out
to other organizations Of men BY the
Mems league Of the Second church,
there were thirty or more in attend
ance in the Sunday school room Of the
church Tuesday evening to hear DR.. r.
J. Cassidy lecture on Social Hygiene.
He is a member of the publicity COM
mfttee of the Connecticut Society OF
Social Hygiene and for the benefit OF
the cause his talk was given. HIS
words were heard with deep interest
and showed the great need of strength
ening public sentiment and the bring
ing about of the desired object of the
organization by education. The great
harm that the laxity In providing for
this has done and will do was clearly
sci forth He was given a rising vote
of thanks and answered a number OF
questions at the close.
1t was brought out during the even
ing that there is a crying need OF
strong public sentiment to back up
th., enforcement of the laws, which the
auth critics say cannot be enforced un''
less public sentiment will assist. Con-
ditions of which but. few people know
anything about were related and the
genera. opinion was that they should
be eraGicated.
The meeting was presided over BY
Eenry D. johnson in the absence OF
President A. L. Peale, and the gather
ing was a representative one.
