SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHERS
Interesting Speakers At Spring Insti- ute Suggest Ways to Make
 Instruction Helpful.

Fifty Sunday school teachers at tended the Spring institute of the Fair field County Sunday School associa- tion of the Connecticut Sunday School association held yesterday afternoon and evening at the Peoples Presby- terian church. Speakers from all sec tions of the state and well acquainted with the Sunday school situation told the teachers how to increase their classes and to be more efficient in their teachings.
 The afternoon session was in charge of the Rev. H. A. Davenport and open ed with a praise service. Rev. George B. Gilbert, an accomplished story tell CT, addressed the teachers on Stories and. Story Telling by which the Bible might be taught to the younger mem bers of the Sunday school with greater understanding. Wallace I. Woodin of Hartford in his lecture on ssAt the Forks of the Road told the teachers that the social, physical and spiritual education were necessities in the prop CT upbringing of the young. The Adult Bible Class Organization was the subject of an address by Rev. Charles A Boyd of West Hartford. He explained to the teachers the proper method to be employed in organizing
 adult Bible classes. The Rev. Mrs. Boyd organized many of these classes
 
 sidered an authority.
 I w. E.. Willis. superintendent of the | South Church Sunday school, was in
 charge of the evenings program. Af- 1 ter a short praise service, Rev. Louis E. Kolller of Hartford gave a very comprehensive speech on How to Ob- l tain Enough Trained Teachers He advocated that the Sunday school de- | vote one class to the. training of | teachers. from which in times o1 necessity teachers could be drawn from.
 s'The Parents Department was the l subject of a very interesting discourse | by Miss Susan B. Ramsey of Hartford | She declared that this department was ! of equal importance with the classes J of the younger people, and said at the present time not enough attention was l given them. Discussion took place
 following the completion of each ad- 1 dress.
 The visiting teachers were enter tained before and after sessions by l Mrs. C. A. Emery who rendered many
 beautiful selections a piano.

IF SKIN BREAKS OUT AND ITCHES
 APPLY SULPHUR
Use it like a cold cream and dry Eczema eruptions
 right up.

The moment you apply bo1d-suI- phur to an itching or broken out skin the itching stops and healing begins, says a renowned dermato1ogist.
 This remarkable sulphur made in to a thick cream effects such prompt relief, even in aggravated Eczema, that is is a never-ending source of amazement to physicians
 For many years bo1d-su1phur has occupied a secure position in the treatment of cutane6us eruptions by reason of its cooling, parasite destroy- ing properties and nothing has ever been found to take it's place in re- lieving irritable and .inflammatory affections of the skin. While not af- ways establishing 9 permanent cure, yet. in every instance, it imm ediately ksubdues the itching irritation and heals the Eczema right up and it is often years later before any erup- tion again manifests itself
 Any good pharmacist will supply an ounce of bold sulphur cream, which should be applied to the affect ed parts like the ordinary cold creams. It isn't unpleasant and the prompt relief afforded is very well come. particularly when thes Eczema is accompanied with torturous itch ing.-Adv.

COMPENSATION LAW
 WILL AWARD HEAVY
 DAMAGES FOR MINERS

New York, May 5-The frightfuI catastrophe which killed perhaps ITO people in mine No. of the New River Galleries Co.,, at Eccles, W. Va, will have far reaching effects upon the workmen's compensation law of West Virginia which went into effect last October, This law was modelled up- on the original Ohio law and created a practical monopoly for an assess ment fund to be administered by the state through a So-calIed Public Ser- vice Comnfsssion.
 It is impossible today to discover whether the owners of the Eccles mine had insured their liability under the law in the state fund If they did the fund will be bankrupt for some time to come and it is a question whether or not the dependent of those killed will ever get their money.
 The West Virginia scheme allows the employer to decide whether or not he will insure with the state. If he does insure an employe who de- cides to sue will be confronted with the common law defenses of contri- 'butory negligence, act of fellow ser want and assumption of risk. If he does not insure he has practically. no defense against a suit brought by the injured employe or his dependents:
 The scale of compensation provided is reasonable enough from an employ er's standpoint but casualty insurance men last night estimated that either the state or the mining company owes to the bereaved by the accident at least $5oO.o00-

TYPOGRAPHICAL UNION
 CANDIDATE LOSES SUIT

andianapolis, May 5-The temporary Injunction obtained last week by Charles F. Hawkes., of New York, to restrain the officers of the Interfa- tfonaI Typographica1 Union from sending out the ballots for the bi- enpia1 election to be held this month was dissolved by Judge Renster in the circuit court here last night.
 The court held that Hawkes., who alleged that he had been deprived of his rights to be candidate for presi- dent by a ruling of the executive coun- ell of the organization, had not shown nor .alleged that there was any fraud in che councils action
 The Court also held that it was dosxbffu1 whether Hawkes. was quali- fed under the rules of the union to be- candidate for president. The executive council ruled Hawkes. off the ballot because he had been in arrears in dues during the year pro- ceed4ng his announcement as candi- dafG for president

Babylon.

The first man to undertake exten- sive and important explorations among the ruins of Babylon and Min ;eveh was Sir Henry Layard. who was born in Paris ninety-seven years ago today. It was due to his friendship for a young man who had a great fear of seasickness that he was led ito begin what was to be his life pro fession. Layard was educated for the law in England. and set out for eCeylon to practice his profession He was acconnpanied by another lad, who had horror of the ocean. and Lay ard readily agreed when his compan- ion suggested that they make the trip by land across Europe. Asia Min
 or, Persia, and India. It was while on this journey that Layard was in spired with the ambition to deIve in to the ruins of the ancient cities of Asia. When first beheld the
 mounds of Nineyeh,'' he wrote. "a great longing came over me to learn what was. hidden in them" He yielded to this desire, and largely at his own expense carried on these excavations at Babylon and Nineveh which were so largely responsible for the discovery of the lost records
 and relics of people who lived 5000 years ago. Many cities and palaces. Including the palace of King Nebu- chadnezzer, were unearthed by Lay ard. and the most valuable treasures in the British Museum serve to com
 memorate his name and fame.

battlefield, and many carry on a four ishing trade in these grim and gris- ly reminders of the bloody past.
 The Wilderness is welI-named, for in many parts it is still a tangle of trees and brush and vines and briers and shrubbery. White monu- mentsl gleam here and there in the underbrush, marking the last resting place om some hero who. ssin the heat of battle. in the roar of conflict. found the serenity of death.'. Oaks and pines bear the scars of battle, and stuups of other trees which were wounded to their death by the batter ing of the cannon still abound in the wilderness.
 , The human abodes scattered about the Wilderness of to-day are mostly tiny cottages or novels, but their sur roundings and associations lend them a certain grandeur of simplicity. Tn the national cemeteries there are long and orderly rows of tablets, and graves that are covered with wild
 flowers. There are clearings here and there where the Wilderness is giving way to the peaceful onslaughts of man. Tn the not distant future no doubt. the wilderness and its scars will be wiped out. and the field made memorable by Mars will be dedicated to the goddess of fertility

 Joseph Patrick Tumu1ty. whose job as Secretary to President Wilson makes him a sort of assistant pres Eident of the United States. was born in Jersey City. thirty-flve years ago to-day. He is the youngest man who ever held such a position. but he is mighty far from being the least ca pablo. He was the Presidents sec retary while the latter was Governor of New. Jersey. and before that he was a lawyer and a member of the New Jersey Assembly. He is Irish by descent, Roman Catholic in relig- ion, and an unterrifled Democrat in politics. Tn his present job he gets ST, 800 year. has a, private carriage. and never has to work more than twenty-four hours a day. Very of ten, in fact. he knocks off and calls 1t a day before 10 or Il P. M.. and then he is in the happy and carefree position of a, man who has nothing to do till tomorrow. He is the father of a large family of children. all of whom know him by sight. from glimpses they have caught of him coming and going.

AS the imperial spouse.of Napoleon TIL, she was the acknowledged ruler of the world Of fashion. With the downfall of the Second Empire she4fed to England, where she has since resided, although she is now permitted to visit France at will. Since the death of her hus- band and her son, who was slain while fighting under the British flag in the Zulu war. the imperial widow has seldom appeared in society. Re gently she attended a church service Tor the nfSt time Tn IorIy years, the occasion being the funeral of 8 friend. The former Empress. once the most fashionably dressed woman of Europe and the dictator of styles for the whole world, has since the death of her son worn only the deep- est mourning. That she has not en | f
 tirely lost her interest in pretty gowns, however. was demonstrated on the occasion of a recent visit to Paris. when she called upon the leading
 dressmakers to display for her their newest toilets, and indulged in ex- pressions of rapturouss admiration when she gazed upon the marvellous robes and costumes.

Semi Centenary of
 Terrible Battle of The Wilderness.

3 Titanic. terrific struggle. unprece- dented slaughter. deadly ferocity: brother pdtted against brother in combat to the death; fife and drum grand music of war roar of cannon and shriek of shell and droning hum of rifle bullets; clash and flash of steel on steel; agonized screams of the wounded mingled with the cheers of soldiers and the hoarse shouts of command; prayers and curses shrieks and fears and full-throated yells of defiance; fendish clamor echoing in sylvan retreat where before Nature had brooded in calm. majestic peace; and on ground the dead. mighty host; headless corpses
 mang1ed by cannon shells: corpses
 disemboweled by bayonet thrusts; corpses hacked to pieces by swords; corpses perforated by bullets. all tramp1ed over by horses and by heed less men made mad by lust of blood;
 and what but short time before were living, breathing men have be- fuse, the debris of war: later, when
 men have become sane again. they will be gathered up with reverent
 care. and laid away in the silent city of the dead.'' to sleep .son Fame's eternal camping ground.''
 It was just half a century ago to-
 day that that sanguinary. desperate conflict called the battle of the Will derness was commenced, with the Federals under Grant opposed to the Confederates under Lee. The latter had 60.000 troops with which to op-
 pose the 100000 men under Grant and Meade. On the fourth of May the Union army crossed the Rapfdan,
 and on the following day the issue was joined. For sheer, desperate and
 determined ferocity this battle, which lasted two days. has seldom been equalled in the history Of warfare
 between civilized nations. The ter
 rible slaughter was indecisive and
 both sides claimed the victory. La ter, however. Grant began a hanking
 march around Lees right, and tho latter gradually retired toward Spott- sylvania The Federal loss during g the two days of conflict amounted to IS 1000 men, or nearly a, fifth of those
 engaged, while the Confederate loss
 of 1000 was about the same percen- tage of Lees army.
 The battlefield in the Wilderness
 remains today, half sl century after, very much as it was left by the con tending armies, except for the tablets
 and monuments and cemeteries to
 be found scattered here and there throughout the thicket. Many grim relics may be found on the field fragments of shells, bullets, and now
 and then a bit of bone that an anato- mist would recognize as having once
 belonged to a man. The relic ven-
 dors are frequently to be met with in all the towns and villages near the
