Orders were received by Superin-
 tendent B. L. Prickett of the Hazard vile powder works last week from the Hercules Company at Wilmington,
 Del, to close the plant for an in- definite peroid, which is generally un- derstood to mean that the entire works
 will be closed for good and that in time what is left of the local plant will be removed to the main quarters at Wilmington. The works have been closed since the last explosion awaiting orders from the trust people.
 The closing of the plant, although not entirely unexpected, comes as a severe loss to the men employed making powder. At times nearly 200 men were employed, but today only twenty five are at work at the local plant.
 The making of powder in Hazardville began ill a small way in 1885 and in 1845 the Hazard powder company was organized by Colonel Augustus G.
 Hazard of Enfield, Allen A. Benslow of Bridgeport, and Loomis Brothers of Suffield, as incorporators. Two powder companies were located in Enfield at that time and in 1854 the Hazard company purchased the mills of the rival companies in Scitico. The B. I. Dupont powder company of Whining ton purchased the Hazard company in 1876, and owned it until ordered by the courts to dissolve the powder trust short time ago. A conservative estimate of the number of explosions since 1885 has been eighty and the number killed sixty, to say nothing of several thousands of dollars worth of damage to property in Hazardville and in vicinity. Superintendent Prickett informed the men that em- ployment would be given them else where at the various plants of the Hercules company and many will ac- cept the opportunity offered them.

I finally read about Doan's Kidney Pills, and as I was badly in need of something that would help me. I began using them improvement was soon noticeable and l continued taking this remedy until my trouble disappeared.
