WAR GAME WITH
 GEN. BLISS AS SPECTATOR With His Staff He Will Watch Ma neuvers Around Stonington and Westerly.

The twelve companies of coast ar- tillerymen from Forts H. G. Wright. Terry and Michie will next week in- wade southern Rhode Island and east ern Connecticut in an attack on Vest erly, Stonington, Conn.,, and Mystic, Conn.,, will be under the eye of Gen. Tasker H. Bliss, who was in charge of the maneuvers in Connecticut this summer and in Massachusetts three years ago. He will be a spectator with his staff.
 The campaign will last two days and the objective point will be Stony brook in Stonington. The campaign is the first of it's kind that many of the soldiers at the forts have engaged in, although some of them have seen ac- tive service in the Philippines under conditions that will make the maneu- vers next week seem like child play.
 The troops will leave the forts with full field equipment, carrying all the necessary munitions of war in order to depend entirely upon themselves for their livelihood and comfort.
 On Wednesday morning. October 2, eight companies from the forts will leave on board government transports for Fort Mansfield, Napatree Point, where camp WILL Do lHdu0 loI IuC ilBHl' The same afternoon four companies will leave the forts and, landing near Stonington will march to Westerly, where they will camp for the night. On Thursday morning the eight companies will march on Stony brook, while the four companies will march from Westerly to the defence of that section. In the retreat the four com panies will march to the Old Mystic bridge where they will make the nights camp. The attack force will camp at Stony brook. On Friday the eight companies will again attack the defending army. the bridge being the battle-ground.
 The object of the maneuvers. is for the purpose of testing the ability ot the regulars to adapt themselves to the active field service conditions.

MoToRcYcLIsTs BACK
 HOME FROM THE WEST.
Two Weeks Trip to Columbus, O.,
 Was Greatly Enjoyed.

After an enjoyable ard interesting
 tour through the west, Harry Stebbins,
 Charles Perry and Peter Desjardines,
 the three motorcyclists who left here
 Sept. Is for Columbus, O., arrived
 home about 2.30 o'clock Monday after
 noon. On leaving Norwich, they passed through Saybrook, Spring
 field. across the Berkshires to Albany, Utica, Buffalo and thence on to Colum-
 bus. On the outward journey they
 passed over what is known as Jacobs Ladder. This is a road in the Berk-
 shires and passes over high hill. The
 party went up one side of the hill and after leaving the top they coasted the
 entire distance down hill, about five miles, with their engines stopped. While in Columbus the party were royalty treated. On their arrival they were met by an agent of the Flying Merkle company who entertained them as his guests throughout their stay in the city. Last Tuesday and Wednes- day were spent in Investigating the Flying Merkle plant. The party were taken over every department of the concern, which is the largest bicycle manufacturing company in the coun- try, and were greatly pleased with all they saw. Regretting that they could remain no longer, the three tourists started on the homeward path Thurs day morning. Because of the delay in reaching Columbus, and as their time was limited, the trio thought it best to proceed as far as New York by rail- road, which they did. They passed two nights and a day in New York and started from there for Norwich on their machines Sunday morning. Ar irving in Bridgeport about 1045 o'clock, the party was obliged to stay in that city unil Monday morning on account of the rain Sunday. Monday morning they left Bridgeport and ar rived in this city about 2.30 o'clock.
 The roads from here to Buffalo are excellent, but from there on they are not so good, being constructed of clay. Although the clay roads are fairl;-
 good to ride on in dry weather, they are very slippery and almost impassa- ble in wet weather. Throughout the entire trip no trouble was experienced with the engines. They worked like clockwork and appear to be in as good condition as when the party started | of on their long trip The only ma
 chine delayed by a puncture was MT | Stebbins' machine. and the other tour | ists covered the whole distance with
 out a puncture. The men rode about l 200 miles a day on the average. This 1 is a record long distance run for mo- 1 torcycles in Norwich, as no local ma chine has gone so far on a single trip

WINS WAGER BY MAKING HAIR GROW
 ON BALD HEAD
TELLS HOW IT WAS DONE.

I have jus. finished the application of wonderful lotion on my head which ! few weeks ago was almost completely y bald. Today my friends look with as- tonishment at my luxuriant growth of hair. It is amazing how much younget I appear This sudden and seemingly miraculous transformation is the result of a wager with & doctor friend of mine, who declared that he knew of an infallible. way to stop my falling hair, growth of thick hair of its natural color. confess that l was scepticsl for experience with many remedies and tonics had already convinced me that this was impossible. Yet I consented to try the preparation which he recom- mended, but 1 wagered that it would not succeed. I used the lotion regular ly twice a day, rubbing well into the been strongly recommended against applying it with the fingers or the hands, because of its extraordina Y hair growing power. In less than a growing so rapidly that l could not deny having lost my wager, and I aS- sure you that l never lost wager more gracefully But l had gained q growth of hair and I was too 0verjoyed with this result to care for anything else. Uponi inquiring from my friend l found that this lotion consisted Of 7 oz. ot LaYona tde composer mixed with 6 OF. Of Bay Rum ahd 12 dr. of Meuthol Crystals. How any druggist can prepare for such a small sum q To- tion so magic in its effects that it grows hair on bald head is more than l can understand Yet the fact remains that any good druggist can prepare it, but only with the understanding that great care must be taken not to use it except on the head. for it would be most disagreeable to create growth of superhuous hair on the neck or arms where the lotion might fall.
 NOTE: If l publish this formula in The Norwich Bulletin it Is only because of my promise that should l lose my bet I would make known tu the world the secret of this remarkable lotion which has the double advantage Of costing so little and at the same time heinq absolutely certain in its effects This Is the forfeit of my waEer.

Rib Broken hx Auto.

MT. c. Bauer of 47 Norwich avenue is recovering from broken rib which he received in an accident last Friday evening. He was walking along Nor wich avenue about o'clock Friday evening when he was knocked down by an automobile and received a brok- en rib, besides a general shaking up. It was purely an accident, as the driv- CT of the car, which was going slowly at the time, did all in his power to prevent it from striking Mir. Bauer. The horn was blown and the occupants of the car called MT. Bauer to look out, but as he Is quite deaf he did not hear them. The injured man was talk en in the machine to his home, where he received medical attendance and whatever other aid the owner of the car was able to offer.
 Several of the Ponemah company's s men are repairing the front piazzas on the houses on Norwich avenue.

Additional Water Main Being Laid to
 TBelt Manufacturing cempany's Plant.

The management of the Norwich Belt Manufacturing company have thought it best to install another water pipe in the plant, which will be coupled onto the present sprinkler system. For the past few days men have been employed in digging ditch in which to lay the pipe from the main to the basement of the plant. The pipe will be the same size as the main line, that Is, six inch pipe, and about 40 feet will be required. The connection with the main will be made near the southern end of the building As the basement of the plant is below the level of the main pipe line, it is necessary to dig the ditch about 12 feet deep, so that the additional piping can be laid in to the building. It is expected that the work will be completed now within a few days.
