MOHIcAN co. WINS
 SUIT OVER TAXES.
Judge Case Gives Decision Against
 City of New London.

The Mohican company wins its case against the city of New London, in which the company petitioned for re- duction of its taxes. Judge William S. Case of the superior court, who heard the company's petition Oct. 23 and 24, has handed down a decision, in which he finds that the building had a mar ket value of $200,00O and the furni- ture of $21,000 in 190s-10, which was the levy in which the company claim ed it was excessively assessed.
 In that levy the assessors followed the twothirds rule, so this decision means that the company's tax bill for the levy of 1909-10 must be changed so as to assess the company on $133,- 333.33 for the hotel, that being two thirds of s20O,00O, and on s14,0OO for the furniture. that being two-t thirds of $21,00O.
 The Mohican company put in the building at $116,666.67 and the furni- ture at $10,000

GOOD ROADS PROPOSED.
Through WiIimantic, DanieIson, Nor wich and New London-Piot Car Made Visit to Latter City.

The good roads pilot car reached New London Saturday in it's tour of the state. It will not be due in this city until Thursday.
 The Good Roads association plans 400 miles of good roads going across the state. The plan is to perfect a shore highway between New York and Boston.
 Several roads are planned. One branch goes through Old Saybrooll, New London and Mystic to Westerly.
 Another proposed road is routed from Hartford across to Willimantic and then to Danielson, and another from Willimantic to Norwich to New London.
 Of course it is only with Connecti- cut roads that the Connecticut asso . citation is to labor, but the good roads associations in Massachusetts and New York will take up the good work where Connecticut leaves off. It is a big movement for good roads that is bound to be heard from.

PARTRIDGE SCARCE
 BUT QUAIL PLENTY
Conditions Reported by Norwich Gun
 ners-Few Woodcock Now.

In spite of early reports to the con- trary, sportsmen find that partridge are few and far between this fall, even more so than last year. when they, were scarce. A favorable winter in 1911-1912 and a like spring should have resulted in more birds this fall, and before the open season partridge were reported more plentiful than for some years, but apparently these re- ports were unfounded in fact. For some years past every season has brought fewer ruffed grouse, and the hunters anticipate with sadness of heart the time when this noble bird will not longer be counted as Con- necticut's principal game bird
 Quail are more plentiful than for some years past, and if not as plentiful now as ever before, should, under fla vOrable circumstances, soon become so. Weather conditions and not the sportsmen are their greatest enemies. Few woodcock have been reported since the native birds. which were in evidence early in the season, have left for the southland or found their way into the hunters coat.

of their wives and children shall be clear brained and clear eyed. All the the influences in the trade unions of America are towards temperance.
 When War Shall Cease.
 Some day war shall cease. But when this comes to pass it will not be result of a peace meeting at the Hague but it will be because the workingman stands up and declares that he will no longer go out and shoot down his fel- low workmen of other countries to sat- isfy the selfish ambitions rulers.
 1 want a square deal for the work ingman. I also demand a square deal for the church. It has been said that in the past 25 years the church has increased threefold in size and that increased threefold and so the church is a failure. But the purdpose of the church is not to still that unrest but rather to arouse it. to bring about change in conditions that are intoler- able. In darkest Africa there are no labor troubles, no strikes, no boycott ting, and the people are of the lowest physical, mental and moral ideals. With the entrance of missionaries in to that land, we may soon look for a change, for the people to rise up and break the bonds which bind them. The Individual Man.
 The church, like the trades union, should not be judged by it's worst men and worst leaders. but by it's highest acts and highest hopes. Think of the mighty men and mighty works which have come from the church. All so- cial reformers declare Christ their leader, the socialist and the anarchist | both announce Christ as their cham pion. He could not have been an ad- vocate of both, for they are funda- mentally opposed. But this proves that the principles of Christ were bigger and wider than any class. No one | can prove from the Scriptures that Christ advocated any system of social change. He lived when conditions were very much worse than they are today, but instead of working for a 1 different social system he began to change individual men. and before you can have an ideal social system you must have ideal men.
 Labor Problem a Religious One. In the end the labor problem is a religious problem. The social reform l Before any great change is accom- plished there must be a great change in the hearts of men. The doctrine that Christ taught was the change ir the heart of man and on this are founded the doctrines of the socialist the commonist, the philosophical anar. chist.
 The Last Appeal.
 The word of Christ is the last ap. peal. We accept the word of Chris as that of the greatest teacher of al time, whether we believe in His alvin. ity or not. Were Christ on earth to- day he would still work in the caus, of the workingman. Is it not a grea thing to have such a man as labor
 champion? Is it right that Chris should bear the crucifixion, all tn
 buffeting, as he has done freely?
 demand a square deal for the work ingman, and for the church, and nov l appeal to you as an American citizel to give Jesus Christ a square deal.

Late Sunday afternoon, Constable Hickey of Montville telephoned Chief George Linton that a quartette of youths, strangers in the village, had been making themselves a general nuisance in Montville. breaking win dows and doing other rowdy actions that brought them into line for arrest.

 Chief Linton had officers meet the 5.45 trolley into Franklin square, on the lookout for the trouble makers, but no one answering their descrip- ton was on board the car All that Constable Hickey could tell about them was that one of the four wore light suit. The car crew stated to the policemen that no one answering the description had boarded the car.
