ETHEL BARRYMORE SUES
 FOR ABSOLUTE DIVORCE
Papers Served on Husband--Friends Trying Hard for Reconcilia-
 ton.

New York, Aug 1.-The actual ser vice of papers demanding an absolute divorce on the grounds of infidelity, by attorneys representing Ethel Bar ryrnore Colt, on her husband, Russell Griswold Colt, son of the Rhode Island millionaire, seemed, today, only to have strengthened the determination of the relatives of both to bring about reconciliation.
 The couple, they say, are very much in love and the relatives are convinced that if Mrs Colt would only permit her husband to make a personal ex- plantation the suit would quickly be dropped All attempts, however, to get the beautiful actress to consent to a meeting have so far failed.
 It was admitted, today, that Mrs. Colt made a hurried trip from Canada to this city during the last few days, signed the papers in the divorce suit her son is. Her attorneys then secur- ed service on her husband, Russell Colt, at the Yale Club, where he IS living
 MrsColt asks for no alimony al- though her husband is rich She has insisted that no publicity be given the proceedings and it was almost cer- tain, today, that the names of the CO., espondents-there are said to be three, one of whom is very prominent in society-would not become public.
 If the proceedings are pushed, it is likely that the attorneys will secure the appointment of a referee to take testimony, some day in the near fu- ture and from that time on the pro- ceedings will be secret.

 After Trip From Newport News, Va.

Quietly slipping into the local har- bor at 5:30 o'clock yesterday after noon the Lake submarine boat "Seal' completed her trip from Newport News, Va, to Bridgeport, the longest trip made unattended by a submarine boat Incidentally, the vessel which made the trip is one of the largest if not the largest, submarines in exist ence.
 Yesterdays voyage was the first trip of the new vessel and it was highly satisfactory to, all connected with her. the engines running like clockwork throughout, and not even exhibiting the stiffness which is usual ly associated with new machinery. The Seal stopped once. in order to take on supplies. She was put in at sary, and the trip could easily have been a continuous one.
 Capt. Simon Lake, inventor of the Lake type of submarine was aboard his vessel; also the following: Capt. c. D. Wallace of the Lake Submarine Whiting, N. s., Chief Engineer Stein and Electrical Engineer Rocker, also U. S. N, besides Captain Schofield, the navigator of the Lake Co. There was also on board a crew of 20 men.
 The Seal has not yet made her of f1cial trial trips and there are still some important parts to be put into her, including the periscope, an in- strument which enables the com mander to see on the surface while the vessel is under water and some other small parts, made in Bridge port by the Lake Submarine Torpedo Boat company. t4
 The Seal is of 800 tons displace- ment, 131 feet long. and of 1S feet beam.

PRETTY CHURCHWOMAN
 WANDERS IN THE WOODS
Suffering From Aphasia, Wanted to be Found But Was POwerless
 to Call Out.
Special from United Press.)

Special from United Press.)
 Bethel, Me, Aug. "A strange at- tack of aphasia, according to Dr. R. R. Tibbitts, was responsible for the mental breakdown of Miss Elsie M. Davis, the pretty A-year-old church organist who wandered into the woods near here after the Sunday morning service and was thought at first to have been murdered. The girl was found after having been trailed by bloodhounds, hiding 20 feet from the ground, in tree. Her shoes, stock ings skirts and waist had been torn from her during her wanderings in the woods, and her undergarments were in tatters when she was found by Fred L. Edwards and Charles E. Stowell, of this place.
 Although the girl is weak and ex- hausted today, she seems to have en- tfrely recovered, mentally. She said today that she remembers leaving the church and of starting for home.
 AS I passed an entrance to the wooded land, I felt strangely impelled to wander into it. I tried to keep from going but could not Ever since Sunday I have tried to go home but something in me forced me to run and hide every time I heard the searchers nearing me, yesterday, and the days previous. I wanted them to find me but could not force myself to- cry out to them.'

AFTER SCALP OF STATE
 COMMISSIONER AVERILL
pr. Atwood of New Haven Petitions For Removal of Commissioners of
 Domestic Animals.

Hartford, Aug +Dr. Frank G. At wood Of New Haven has filed petf- ton with Governor Baldwin request ing him to remove from office Gen eral Heman o. Averill. the commits term runs out July 15, 1913. The peti- ton charges that the commissioner is neglectfu1 of his duties in having treated with indifference dangerous cases of gianders in New Haven. pr. Atwood is member of the United States Live Stock Sanitary association and he says that organization, the leader of its sort in the country, ad- vocates g. nOn-partisan and unpaid board for each state and an executive officer selected by the board to be under pay. He says that he has said openly that he would readily serve for four to eight days regularly with out any pay for the sake of the State. but he has never sought the position held by General Averill. as that of ficial has alleged. That place, how ever, 1t is the belief of the veterinar- ians. should be held by some one of their profession.
 Dr. Atwood Is emphatic about glan- ders asserting that the cases in Con- necticut increased by 40 per cent in the last year. whlfe in Wisconsin. there were only seventeen cases.
 The demand of Dr. Atwood that General Averill be dismissed is in line with what has been rumored for some time and what was developed at the time of the "tuberoulous cat tle'' contest-that the veterinaries are after his scalp. This was alleged when he1advocated the recently pass ed measure which gave. that element SO much stronger hold on such mat terss through the State. General Averfu has many friends in Connec- ticut and stands well outside also, and 1t is presumed that when the time comes he will prove able to take care of himself. but not few observ- CTS feel that he opened the door for himself to go out when he pushed this cattle bill through.
