Geo. M. Cohans play, Get Rich

audience is given view of the inter-
ior of the principal hotel in Battles

dullness of the town and his inability
to wake it up. Upon this scene dawns
J. Rufus Wallingform, the get-rich-

The rich men of the village who
have been boarding their wealth for
years and could not be induced to sep

was actually needed for the necessi-

of the real estate boom that the
whirlwind methods of Wallingford
make so real that they fall over them

been taken to isolate the cases and
prevent the spread of the disease.
The health authorities do not know
how the malady broke out here. They
say that the first child evidently in
fected the others and that this &C
counts for the prevalence of the dis
ease in various parts of the city.

animals, especially those who have
been trained, and the stunts these are
put through by their trainer are thrill

they with this exhibition. The ami
mails are in cages so the little peo-
pie feel perfectly safe. The fact that
people are occupying themselves more
and more with the humane treatment
of the dumb animals is manifested in
the national convention of the Society

from every part of the United States.

Governors Flag Day Proclamation.

Governors Flag Day Proclamation.
 Governor Baldwin has issued the fol- lowing proclamation, naming June IA as Flag Day
 Pursuant to the statutes of this state, hereby designate Friday, the four teenth day of June next, as Flag Day, and direct that it be made the occasion in every public school within the state, which may then be in session, of exer- cises to commemorate the adoption by Congress on June IA, TIT, during the first year of the existence of the United States, of the flag that should forever symbolize the new nation, constituted by the Declaration of Independence. Its thirteen stripes represent the thirteen states which joined in making that Declaration. The fact that Connecticut was one of these is the proud heritage of her citizens, among whom the children in her schools have as rightful place as any of their elders.
 Let their teachers, then. use Flag Day as a time to impress upon them the full meaning of the Stars and Stripes one star for every state one stripe for each of the old "thirteen," which fought the seven years struggle of the Revolution for freedom and independence.
 Given under my hand and the seal of the state at the Capitol in Hartford, this seventeenth day of May, in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and twelve, and of the independence of the United States the one hundred and thirty sixth.

Hens Fight Wharf Rat.

A. B. Darling, of East Hampton, has a flock of Plymouth Rock hens that are fighters. The other day he heard 8 commotion in the yard and found a dozen hens picking at 8 large sized wharf rat, finally killing it for trying to get gay and steal their food. For steal ing eggs from a setting hen and carry ing them over board 6 foot high, steel traps were set for rats suspected of the work, and three wharf rats, three quarters grown. were caught in one trap. Unless rats steal eggs as repre- sented in the old reading books, one lying on its back and tightly olasping an egg while another rat pulls it up by the tail, there is question as to how they manage it.
