WATSON IS OUT.
The Deputy Bank Commissioner Re
signs His Position.

w. 7. Watson, assistant bank COM
missioner, has resigned his position
and also withdrawn from the race for
state treasurer. The resignation of
Mr.. Watson was not expected by Bank
Commissioner Dolley and he has not
yet decided upon his successor. Wat
son has served two years in the bank
commissioners office and before that
was a national and state bank exam
iner. He was representative from
Allen county in the last two sessions
Of the legislature and well known in
the eastern section of the state as
politician. 1t is understood that his
resignation was the result of the ac-
ton of Commissioner DOlley in the
Aetna Building and Loan association
controversy
Watson himself would give no rea-
son for his resignation from the Of
flee Mr.. DOley merely said:
i did not know he had resigned. The
cause him to resign is the fact that 1
declined to continue him as member of
the board of directors of the Aetna
Building and Loan association. Mr. Wat
son was placed on the directorate tempor
ar1ly to audit its books. He did valuable
work IN that capacity and it saved an
expense of SIS day for an auditor. But
L had intended all along that his service
as director should be temporary 1 in
tended that it should end at the time Of
the annual meeting February %. Mr.
watson wanted to continue on the board
and we disagreed about that. However.
there has not been a word between US
and am surprised to learn that he has
resigned
at Colony and may decide TO go down
there and look after his bank For the
present he has no particular plan in mind
But he win not make the race for state

NOT Man
Another Gave Notes for Pay
ment of Campaign Fund.
Department Recommends Him
Because of Record.

Washington Jan. 30.-Inquiry at the
postoffice department regarding the
nomination of w R. Childs of Kansas
City, Kan, to succeed himself as post
master revealed the reason for the
rather unusual incident. Neither Kan
sas senator had recommended Mr..
Childs and his nomination was made
by the president on the recommended
ton of the postmaster general, because
of the fine record made by the office
during Child's administration. Great
strides in the matter of handling the
mails have been made in Kansas City,
K nsas, where fifteen tons of mail are
sometimes handled in one day, since
Mr.. ChildS became postmaster and it
was because of the excellent business
administration that the department
recommended to the president that he
be reappointed.
In addition to this record every bank
and most of the business men in Kan
according to reports here. This of
course. has had some weight with the
department
Through a mistaken report which
was prevalent here last week the name
of Chi1ds was connected with a story
growing out of the fight over the office
when Bowersock was congressman.
The connecting of Childs' name with
the story has since been found to be
an error and while the story is still de-
clared to be true, the name of another
man, who was formerly postmaster
should have been substituted for that
of Mr.. Childs.
No action has yet been taken on
Childs' reappointment but il is said
that his friends have rallied to his sup
port and are making a determined
fight for the confirma ton of his ap-
pOintment by the senators. and as there
can be no objection to him personally
or to his conduct of the office there is
little doubt of his confirmation.

COVERS The CITYLeET TIER HOME {
Military Rule Has Been Ex-
tended at Lawrence, Mass.
Soldiers Disperse a Crowd at
Point of Bayonets.

Lawrence, Mass, Jan. 30.-No repe-
tition of yesterdays rioting occurred
today when the various textile mills
opened their gates. The whole city
was under control of the militia and
picketing near the mill district was
stopped by the soldiers. There ap-
peared to be a slight increase in the
number of mill employees who went to
work as compared with yesterday.
In the plains district when body
of Syrians attempted to form pa
rade about the time the mills were
opening the militia forced them to
disperse at the point of bayonets- Sew
eral strikers are said to have been
hurt.
In the vicinity of the Arlington mills
a crowd Of strike sympathizers at
tempted to cripple the electric car
service by cutting trolley wires.
On Essex street, the scene of most
of yesterdays rioting, all was quiet
during the hours preceding the open
ing of the mills. The cars which ordi-
narily carry the workers to the vari-
Gus textile establishments were prac-
tically deserted. Today the city was
as near under martial laws as it IS
possible under the Massachusetts stat
utes. Colonel Sweetser has under his
command nearly two full regiments of
soldiers uo-aIsing 1900 men
Looking for Trouble.
Colonel Sweetser said the position
of the militia was no longer that of
waiting for trouble to develop, but
that the soldiers were looking LOT
trouble His orders 10 the troops are
that persons shall rot be allowed to
congrcgatea in the streets, and today
the military zone was extended to in
cIude the entire city instead of the
mill district The number of people
entering the mills appeared to be
greater than yesterday There are still
$4,000 operatives on strike or forced
out by the closing of mills
Joseph J. Ettor, leader of the strik-
ers said his men would hold meetings
during tie day, although it had been
declared by Colonel Sweetser that no
outdoor gathering of the strikers
would be permitted.
Twice during the early hours of the
morning shots were fired by militia
men but without injury to anyone.
In the first instance ice cutters at
work on the Merrimac river were mis-
taken for strikers seeking to reach the
mill section and squad of soldiers
after trying in vain to warn them off
the ice, fired over the heads of the
In the other case shots were dis
charged in the direction of some OBJ
iects across the river which the mill
tiamen thought in the dim dawn were
men moving toward the mills, but it
was said the suspected objects were
merely logs.
Colonel Sweetser said there was no
intention of arresting Strike Leader
Ettor unless he should put himself in
an attitude of actual opposition to

SAUERKRAUT AND LONGEVITY.
He Who Eats it Has a Good Claim
to Length of DAYS.

Ever since Ellie Metchnikoff, director
of the Pasteur Institute, Paris, an
nounced his discovery of the little
germ. contained in sour milk and but
tevmilk. which tends to the prolonga-
tion of human life. many persons have
acquired the habit of drinking sour
milk daily.
Many others. to whom sour milk is
extremely distasteful have reluctantly
done without it. while hoping and long
ing for the discovery of some other
equally efficacious prolonger of life.
One has been found at last. 1t is a
little germ contained in sauerkraut.
A Tactic acid bacillus has been found in
sauerkraut possessing all the good
qualities of the laetic acid bacilli in
sour milk. If you cannot take the sour
milk. it is now suggested by Metchni
koff that you try the sauerkraut treat
ment to offset the ravages wrought by
time and old age on the human system.
In the latest reports of work done by
the Pasteur institute Metchnikoff cites
q large number of cases of men anc
women who have greatly improved
their chance of reaching ripe old age
by partaking freely of sauerkraut. -
