AN IMPORTANT ACT

A measure which passed the SEN
ate on the fifth day of the present
month is an important matter to the
farmers of the southwest, since il
provides for cutting down the resi-.
dence on homestead from five to
three years.
Another important change is that
homesteaders are given the right to
absent themselves from their claims
for six months without penalty.
The changes proposed by the SEN
ate are as follows:
An act to amend Section 2291
and 2297 of the Revised Statutes of
the United States relating to home
steads.
BE it enacted by the senate and
house of representatives of the
United States of America in con-
gress assembled, that Section 2291
and Section 2297 of the Revised
Statutes of the United States be
amended to read as follows:
Section 2291. No certificate,
however, shall be given or patent
issued therefor until the expiration
of three years from the date of such
entry; and if at the expiration of
such time, or at any time within
two years thereafter. the person
making such entry, or if he be dead
his widow, or in case of her death
his heirs or devisee, proves by two
creditable witnesses that he, she or
they have resided upon or cultivated
the same for the term of three years
Immediately succeeding the time of
filing the affidavit, and makes affi-
davit that no part of such land has
been alienated, except as provided
in Section 2288, and that he, sic or
they will lear true allegiance to the
government of the United States,
then in such case, lie, she or they,
if at any time citizens of the United
States, shall be entitled to patent,
as in other cases provided by law;
provided, that the absence of said
entrymen or Of his family from the
land for a period not exceeding six
months in one calendar year shall
not be held or constructed as inter-
rupting the continuity of the three
years residence required by this
section, but in case of communication
the fourteen months actual resi-
dence as now required by law must
be shown.
Section 2297. III, at any, time
after the filing of the affidavit as
required in Section 229O and before
the expiration of the three years
mentioned in Section 2291, it is
proved, after due notice to the set
tier, to the satisfaction of the reg
lister of the land Office that the per-
son having filed such affidavit has
actually changed his residence after
establishing the same, or abandoned
the land for more than six months
at any time, then and in that event
the land SO entered shall revert to

Deputy Sheriff William H. Casey and Howard Chase, who left Westerly Sat urday morning for a fishing trip at Block Island, and who were reported lost on Monday, arrived in the Paw catuck river in MT. Casey's power boat Water Lily, Tuesday afternoon. Sheriff Casey says there was no occasion as to alarm for their safety as he was taking no hazardous chances, and had no intention of returning to Westerly until Tuesday. He said the Water Lily was an able sea boat and could battle successfully against any kind of a storm, yet he believed in conservatism when on the sea as well as land. He experienced some rough weather, but no worse than he had encountered off Watch Hill on several occasions.
 Though the Water Lily and Casey and Chase were reported as safe by the life saving station, they did not know that there was any doubt as to their safety until Tuesday morning, when they met a fishing boat from StoningtOn. Then they were informed of the report of their probable drown ing.

Leader Charles o. cavitt of the Westerly hand played oornet with the Tubbs band of Norwich in the state parade of the Ancient Order of Hi- bernians of Connecticut in Bridgeport Tuesday. The Westerly band was of fered an engagement for this occas- ion with the Hibernians of New Lon don but declined. as Mir. Gavitt de- sired to avoid probable unpleasant ness with the union bands in the pa- rade. There is no need for the band to be unjonized so far as Westerly as concerned, 1t is probable that the band will affiliate with the Musicians union so that there will be no objection to participation in out of town demon strations by bands that are unionized. Hon-union musicians are allowed to 1raternize with and play in union bands and union musicians are not aVerse to serving in non-union bands; stlll' union bands will not join in pa- rade with non-union bands or organ izations. The Westerly band, is en- gagged whenever occasion requires by the labor organizations of Westerly and always heads the procession on Labor day. It is the only band in Westerly, and one of the oldest and best in the state.
