An Excess of Pupils.

Norwalk built new high school building five years ago, expecting that it would be of sufficient size to ac- commodate the pupils of the town for long period offyears. In five years the number of students has doubled and is now 435. which is greater than the capacity of the school, and thirty five pupils are without desks or other school conveniences.
 Burned to Ground
 The house on Elmwood Heights in Bethel, best known as the Stratton place, was totally destroyed by fire Tuesday night. The house was occu- pied by a MT. and Mrs. Wangler, who leased the house of it's owner last spring. But little of the household effects of the Wanglers was saved. It is supposed that the fire started from some defect in the chimney. The house is now owned by Mrs. Mary A. Watson,, of Yonkers, N. Y., and there was an insurance on the house.
 Tax Rate, Gut Down.
 That the tax rate in Norwalk will be lessened 1-2 mill for the next year is the announcement made after the timate and taxation.
 Used Spurious Checks.
 After swind1ing two Port Chester merchants by getting them to cash worthless checks, Harry Duff, son of James F. Duff, of Greenwich, has left town, and the police have not been able to ascertain his whereabouts. Both checks were drawn on the Mu- tual Trust Company of Port Chester and bore the signature of Frank Duff. They were returned marked mo good.' Duff was convicted last year of steal ing an automobile and was sentenced to six months in Bridgeport jail.

A Reasonable Plea
 For The Stomach
If Your Stomach Is Lacking in Diges- tive Power, Why Not Help the Stomach Do Its WOrk-ES-
 pecially When It Costs :
 Nothing to Try?

Not with drugs, but with rein forcement of digestive agents, such as are naturally at work in the stomach? ? Scientific analysis shows that diges- tion requires pepsin, nitrOgenous fer ments, and the secretion of hydro chloric acid. When your food fails to
 digest, it is proof positice that some
 of these agents are lacking in your digestive apparatus.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain
 nothing but these natural elements necessary to digestion and when plac-
 ed at work in the weak stomach and
 small intestines, supply what these
 organs need. They stimulate the gas-
 tric glands and gradually bring the di-
 gestive organs back to their normal
 condition.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have
 been subjected to critical chemical
 tests at home and abroad and are
 found to contain nothing but natural
 digestives.

Gertrude Patterson Anxious To Take
 Witness Stand
Special from United Press )

Especial from United Press)
 Denver, Nov. 24-sIt seems to me I'll choke If ! can't speak out if these enforced silences continue much longer. And yet, from all accounts, the public is holding my silence and composure against me-"
 Mrs. Gertrude Gibson Patterson, now facing trial on the charge of expressed her desire to take the wit ness stand in her own defense. "I am inexpressably anxious for every bit of the evidence to be put
 before the jurors,' she said, "so that may know at the earliest moment
 whether they are going to give me my life.''
 ''Shot in the back These four words constitute the answer of the prosecution to Gertrude Gibson Patterson's plea that she act ed in self defense of her life, when she killed Charles A. Patterson, her husband.
 The most important witness, so far, and the man on whose testimony the state bases its main case, is "A. B. Shugart, a carpenter. He saw the l tragedy. He testified that, on Sept. 25, last, he was standing in his car penter shop when he heard two shots l fired in rapid succession from the di- | rectlon of the home of E.. B. Hendrie. | "I looked and saw a man on his l ing out, My God, my God and a woman was standing with a revolver, l taking deliberate aim at his back for | the third shot. I hollered to her and | as I hollered she fired. He fell on l his face and I never saw him move again.
 l The witness found under the body
 a revolver which he identified as the
 one with which Mrs. Patterson killed
 her husband.
