The delegation that went to Wash lngton to urge that the Westerly post office building be constructed of Vest erly granite were politely but positive ly informed that it was against the policy of the government to specify any special granite tn asking for bids for granite buildings, but that bids were open 10 all granite dealers with out regard to location. Then the Westerly delegation withdrew all claim and, the available appropriation considered, agreed to accept marble building.
 That there is evident inconsistency has been demonstrated this week when local granite dealers were invited to submit bids for a lighthouse to be built at the breakwater at Buffalo, and the best of Westerly granite is to be used in Its construction.
 As a result of the recent seizure of liquors at Bradford, Michael Capalbo, Natale Capalbo, Natale Pucci and Nun8iata Pucci were brought into the Third atstrict court Friday by Consta- ble John Catto on complaint of Thom- as E. Brown, chief of police. Each was charged with keeping liquor for sale contrary to law. After consider
  John Ruisi, the quartette pleaded guilty and Judge Williams imposed the penalty specified by statutes-$2O and costs and 10 days in jail. Natale Ca pablo took an appeal and furnished a bond of S100, The others paid the fine and decided to enter upon their jail term at once.
 Immediately after adjournment et court there was considerable talk in the Italian tongue of a decidedly ex- citing nature The topic of discussion was a general misunderstanding of the situation. It was given out that the accused men had paid to a fellow countryman the sum of S17 each ana were given to understand that he hal settled the cases for that sum. Chief Brown Immediately took this matter under consideration for investigation
 Friday afternoon warrant was is- sued for the arrest of Peter NJ. Rose charged with obtaining money under false pretences, the convicted Italians giving the information that they had each paid to Rose $17, he agreeing to settle the cases against them for that sum which he said was to be paid to police and court officials If the charge that the money paid Rose be true, ii is evident that Rose was of the opinion that the liquor seizure cases against these individuals would not be follow ed with prosecution for keeping liquor for sale, as has been in the case oc- casionally in the past. Rose was in the court room during a part of the ses- sion and was suggested to act as in- terpreter but was not acceptable to Judge Williams. When the case ended Rose had disappeared. This was be- fore the evidence of his alleged action had come to the surface. Police offi- cers immediately went in search of Rose but he could not be located. He has been a resident of Westerly many years and property owner and there- fore it is believed that his arrest will be effected in a short while. He will then be given an opportunity to prove his innocence

ACUTE
INDIGESTION
FATAL

PROMINENTLY displayed in the newspa-
pers of January Sd was the announce
ment of the death of Alfred Tennyson
Dickens, son of the late Charles Dick
ems, from acute indigestion. Mr.. Dick
ems was stricken very suddenly, only
being sick about three hours.
Newspapers of the next day january
A. featured the fact that our own
"Fighting Bob" Evans died suddenly in
! Washington of acute indigestion after
an illness of less than two hours.
The above news items amply prove
how serious our national disease, indi-
gestion, is becoming, and the fact that
nc matter how healthy and robust a
person is, they may be suddenly strick-
en- with this dread disease.
Prepare yourself to fight indigestion.
Don't let the enemy find you unpre-
pared if he should suddenly attack you.
Guard Yourself as thousands of others
have done with STOMACH-RITE the
rational remedy to fight this national
disease of ours.
Users call doctors Daughter" ST0M-
ACH RITE the worlds best stomach and
liver medicine. As it has cured thou
sands of users, they ought to know.
You should always have STOMACH
RITE at hand. Keep it in your home.
Carry it in your purse or pocket. One
or two tablets taken after hearty
meal would eliminate all bad after eff
fects.
"An ounce of prevention is worth 4
pound of cure" but in ST0MACH-RITE
YOU get botha preventive and a cure
as thousands have testified, and a SOC
box purchased at your druggists to-day
may be the means of saving you much
suffering, possibly your life.
Ask for STOMACH RITE and insist
that you get it. No other remedy gives
the same results. You can get it at
Burt II. Wells, Barre, and all other
good drug stores.
