MAYOR MURPHY EXTENDS WELCOME
At Reunion of 26th Regiment Connecticut Vounteer5lst Annual Reunion Well Attended at Buckingham Memori- -Mortuary List of Ten in the Year-President John s. Nolan Reelected.

A red letter day in the annals of the Twenty sixth Connecticut Volun- teers the 21st of August is always, and was a glorious gathering of the vet erans, their 51st, at the Buckingham Memorial with rather large repre- sentation of the reginental association in spite of the weather conditions that mean more today than half a century ago when they were subjected to the evening dews and damps of the southern battlefelds. Yet those who could get there were just as spirited and enthusiastic and the ardor of the occasion was not diminished by rain or other inclemencies It was a time for "reminiscences and renewal of friendships and as such the hours of the reunion were utilized to the full.
 Acting President John D. Noland, of New London called the meeting to order with the statement that he was thankful he had lived to see another reunion, Loyalty, fraternity and char ity he said are things to keep a man young. and make his last days his best days.
 Corresponding Secretary Married.
 Secretary N. Douglass Sevin of this city presented his interesting report, which showed that 50 members at tended a year ago. He reported that Benjamin F. Gates, the former cor responding secretary, had taken unto himself wife since the last reunion and had left New London to make his home in Baltimore, thereupon resign ing his office. Consequently MT. Sevin had to perform the duties of that office also, which the veterans find he has done admirably, sending out notices of the reunion and making other ar engagements.
 Treasurer Sevin's Report.
 In his report as treasurer MT. Sevin stated that he started the year with s173.79 and that after paying for the reunion badges and other things on the expense side and receiving col lections and interest on the credit, he had a balance of $161.66. The monument fund now amounts to S346.- 54.

c. J. BALDWIN'S HOUSE
 STRUCK BY LIGHTNIi
Game in by Telephone Wire-Two
 Trolley Cars Burned Out.

On Friday afternoon the weather repeated its performance of the day before by furnishing a sudden thunder shower about o'clock with rain in torrents for short time followed by intermittent showers for the rest of the afternoon and evening. No dam age of serious nature from either rain, wind or lightning was reported, but there were some unpleasant accom- paniments of the storm.
 Lightning struck the house of Charles J. Baldwin, off the rear of No. 1b1 Maple street, coming down the side of the house and in by the tele- phone wire. All this telephone line was burned out and the electricity al- so shot over from the house isto the barn where is burned off an electric light bulb which was hanging over an automobile, but did not damage the car. nor set the barn or house on fire. It was said by man who saw the bolt that it also entered pile of rocks at some distance away from the house and barn sending out a shower of sparks that exceeded any Fourth of July celebration ever dreamed of.
 The trolley company suffered by having two cars struck by lightning, one at Jewett City at B.: :09 o'clock and the other at South Windham at $40. Both were burned out and other cars had to be sent out to take their places on the runs.
 In Franklin street between Willow and Bath the gutter on the southerly side of the street carried a big volume of water that spread in a solid sheet almost out to the trolley tracks, and when it reached Bath street in its downward flow spread out a couple of inches deep across from curb to curb.
 Brought down by the storm 8 large limb fell about 6 o'clock with a loud crash from tree of No. 55 Franklin street. Pieces from the limb broke through a skylight and came into the building occupied for storage by A. Bruckner. dealer in second hand fur niture. The building is owned by w. H. Dat.
 A colored man who was nearby and heard the crash declared that he was so scared he turned as white as a sheet"
 The city electric light plant had touble on some circuits in different parts of the city. but none at the sta- tien on North Main street.
 The telephone company also escaped both on Thursday and Friday with a minimum amount of trouble, but what there was made a. good number of calls for the repair men in the city and surrounding country.

~ DING ON theory that "a woman is
VI as old as she looks, and as young
as she feels" women past middle age,
in these days, choose hats to suit their
appearance A careful choice of mil
linery subtracts some years from the
wearer. But it is a mistake to ex-
pect too much of hats in the matter
OF lending youth to the face. Spe-
cialists in designing tax their ability
to the utmost to achieve millinery
which shall be rich and brilliant, as
it should be for the woman of ma
ture years.
When the mistake is made Of choos-
ing hat which has been designed for
young face, the older woman de-
feats her purpose and looks ridicu-
lous. BY giving time and careful con-
slderation to her selection she will
be able to find something peculiarly
adapted to herself
The three hats illustrated here, al
though photographed on a youthful
model, are intended for elderly wom-
en-. They are moderately large and
fit comfortably on the head. The ex-
amples shown are in black velvet,
but will be equally attractive made up
in the soft, rich colors of which the
season provides wonderful display.
While on the subject of colors it

HOUSE PASSES WAR TAX BILL.
Measure Is Approved by a Vote o
o22 70 LAG

Measure Is Approved by a Vote of
233 to 1856.
Washington, Sept. 2S.-The house
passed the war tax bill which is in
tended to raise $105,0 100000 annual rev.
enue to make up the loss caused by the
European war. The vote was 233 to
1876.
Eleven Democrats voted against
the bill They were: O'Hair, Illinois;
Hobson, Alabama; Ragsdale, South
Carolina; Sisson, Stephens and With
erspoon, Mississippi; Galloway, Tex
as; Church, California; Stevens, New
Hampshire; Thompson Oklahoma, and
Wingo, Arkansas. One Progressive,
Copley of Illinois, voted for it.
The feature of the debate was the
speech of Minority Leader Mann of
Illinois against the bill. He charged
the Democrats with extravaganza.
Representative Hammond, Demo,
crat, of Minnesota, said that the bill
was caused solely because of the
European war and the consequent fall
ing off in customs duties.

AMBASSADOR BEY OF
TURKEY DEFIES WILSON
Ottoman Envoy Let's Chief Executive
Know That He Will Not Withdraw
lnterview-To Leave u. S.

Washington, Sept. 26.-The battle
ship North Carolina after transferring
her cargo of gold to the yacht Scor-
plon, was ordered to proceed to
Beirut, Turkey, to protect American
interests in the Ottoman empire. The
Scorpion met the North Carolina at
Brindisi and now is on her way to
Constantinople.
Washington, Sept. 26.-That A. Rus
TEN Bey, Turkish ambassador to the
United States, has asked his govern,
ment for leave of absence was OIL
cially stated at the White House.
The envoy has sent word to the
White House to this effect. Further
comment by administration officials is
declined.
1t is understood that Rustem Bey
told the president frankly in his letter
that he still supported the position he
took in several interviews, but that
in view of having incurred the dis
pleasure of the United States he thinks
it best to leave his post. This, how
ever, is not officially confirmed at the
White House.
The interview to which the Turkish
| ambassador referred was contained in
a statement given to the press on Sep
TENDER 1, in which A. Rustem Bey
| protected the name of his native cOun-
| try In part he had said:
That there have been massacres in
| turkey / cannot. unfortunately, deny.
but the Armenians and Maronites, who
were the victims, suffered at the hands
as political agitators."
After referring to the Pogroms OF
Russia, the smoking to death of AL
gerians by France and severe meas
ures adopted in England to punish In
dian mutineers, the diplomat has the
following to say about the United
States:
And since large number of Amer
lean papers are siding with Great Brit
ain and France in this affair, l will
permit myself to say that the thought
OF the lynchings which occurred daily
in the United States and the memory
of the water cures" in the Philippines
should make them chary of attacking
Turkey in accordance with acts OF
savagery committed by her under
provocation compared with which the
economic competition of an Italian or
the sniping OF a Filipino, or even the
outrage of a negro, are as nothing.
"Supposing, for the sake of argu
ment, what in reality could never hap
pen, that the American negroes were
discovered to be engaged in con
spiracy with the Japanese to facilitate
the invasion of the United States by
the latter, how many of them would be
| left alive to tell the tale?"

is worth while noting that black Is
far from being the best choice for
the woman of middle life The pos
SCISSOR of fresh complexion and gray
or white hair looks particularly well
in black. For dark-skinned' persons
strong blues prove to be most success
full. The only safe way to choose is
to experiment with shades and tones
Of the different colors and select that
which harmonizes best with the eyes,
hair and complexion.
The face veil, which is better de-
scribed as a complexion veil, is the
best friend of the elderly woman, as
a finishing touch to her millinery.
The great liking for gold and silver
cloth, jet and metallic effects in flow
ers which this season has developed
make 1t easy for the milliner to pro-
duce brilliant hats. The richest of
brocades and the handsomest of plum
age belong to the oldest women. In
the hands of the expert specialist they
have been worked up into hats that
are the envy of youth.
Among other shapes than those
shown here are come having flat
brims This gives an opportunity for
colored facings. Colored facings are
a point of vantage that the older wom-
an must not lose sight of when she
elects to choose black hat.

PREVENT STOMACH
WORMS IN SHEEP
Animals Should Be Given Treat
ment With Gasoline and
Moved to New Pastures.

CBy w. L. BOYD, Assistant Veterinarian,
University Farm. ST. Paul, Mimi
As soon as possible after the lamb
ing period the old sheep should all re-
ceive a one or two-ounce dose of gas
oline, followed by small dose of ep-
som salts. They should then be turned
on a worm-free pasture. II possible.
In July the entire herd, including the
lambs, should be treated with gasoline
and turned into new pasture. This
treatment should be repeated in No
vember, when the flock should again
be removed to new pastures. Pasture
rotation combined with drugs that are
Injurious to the worms Is the most
practical method of successfully COM
batting this worm. At University farm
pasture rotation has been practiced
SO successfully that few losses have
occurred from the effects of this
worm.

banking-up is begun. However, this
will not do away with the banking-up.
even with the self-blanching varieties
when planted late in the season.
When the frost came, the celery
ridges were quite high. Stakes were
driven along the sides and boards
placed on edge, then more earth
banked up.
The top of each ridge was nearly
level, although the celery leaves pro-
truded several inches above. This is
essential, for if the air is entirely ex'
cluded the celery will rot.
When the freezing weather sets in,
old carpet was spread over the tops OF
the celery. Additional covering was
put on as needed and during the mild
weather it was all removed and re-
placed whenever there were signs OF
freeze.
In this manner the celery was kept
growing until late in the winter, when
the last of it was used.
