ever seen him in one of his won
derful flights of speed will surel,
go back to see him again.
Wishing you much success wit
your valuable animal, and trusting
he may live for many years yet, t.
please you and the horse-loyint

Yours very truly,

Whatever ones sympathies may
be in the present European war, 1t
must be borne in mind that all
of the news which is being pub

through partisan sources; in other
words, dispatches being published
in the American Press are being re-
eeived from English or French sour
ces, or sources that are friendly to
them, as the result of which one
cannot be altogether certain that
they are not somewhat exaggerated
as the result of the partisan SYM
pathies of the sources through
which they are received.

BRICK MAsoNs JOIN
 LOCAL LABOR ALLIANCE.
Union Brick Masons Must Keep of Stone Foundation Work Done by Non- U nion Men.

The Norwich Brick Mason, Plaster and the local Carpenters union, No. 137, have voted to, accept the condi- tions of agreement entered into by their respective international unions. That sucn agreement shall be carried out and with view of harmonizing local interests, the Masons' union last Thursday evening at their meeting voted to become a part of the alliance now organized by the Carpenters and Painters local unions, with Business Agent Robert McNeely as their repre- sentative.
 One of the points covered under this alliance is that stone foundation work done by non-union men afterV July l, 1914, must be so clasSed, and no union brieklayer must lay brick on the same Any work contracted for or in process of construction will not come within the above alliance. The Norwich men earnestly hope that public interest in these matters will tend to make agreeable conditions.
 The text of the agreemnet signed and approved by the executive board of the Bricklayers', Masons' and Plas- terers' International union of America and the United Brotherhood of Car penters and Joiners of America is as follows:
 First-We agree to a general "of- fensive and defensive" alliance under the following conditions:
 Second-That no member of either organization shall work on any opera ton where workmen are employed other than those who are in good standing in the respective international unions.

TROLLEY CARS STALLED.
Engine Trouble at Power Plant Held
 Up the Cars for an Hour.

For over an hour Tuesday evening all cars in the city were stalled ow- ing to engine trouble at the power plant Just after the car starter blew his whistle to start the cars from the square ofi the o'clock run the power gave out and the cars were at stand still Shortly afterwards the power went on for a few minutes and the express to the hospital got as far as the Mckinley avenue switch when it gave out again. this time for about an hour Two cars bound from Yan- tic to the square were stalled just south of the Lafayette street switch and the other cars were at a stand still at various points along the city lines.
 The engine trouble was repaired as quickly as possible and the cars start ed moving again at 7.10 o'clock In very short time all cars were run ming on schedule time. The trouble happened at an inopportune time as the greater number of the passengers on the six o'clock trip are working people homeWard bound and the traf- ffc is usually heavier at this time than at any other time during the after noon
