PURPLE AND WHITE
Already Appearing in Decorations One Thousand Coming for Elks' Hiqh links.

Reports of the Elks' big meeting next Monday evening go to show that 1t will be the greatest fraternal time ever held in this city. Great plans are in preparation, as there may not be another lodge formed in the state for some time, not at least until the towns grow to be large enough to fulfil re- quirements as to numbers.
 There will be at least five bands for the parade and big delegations from Norwich, Hartford, New Haven. Put nam. Providence, Waterbury and other places The number of visitors is es- timated at over one thousand. The refreshment committee has made plans for the entertainment of that number Some idea of the ma agnitude of the undertaking can be gained from the size of their order. Sixty gallons or coffee is coming from Boston in special Thermos tank, guaranteed to keep hot for s4 hours. over 2,500 sand wtci1es have been ordered. a half bar rel of pickles. a whole cheese and other good things in proportion. Main street will be illuminated from Bridge street to Lincoln square with arches of lights and many of the merchants will keep their stores illuminated. The ElkS colors. purple and white, are already forming the main scheme of decora- ton in many of the windows, and all plans are being laid to make the m

Every Home Needs
 This Great Remedy
No Home Can Afford to Be Without Mild. Reliable Laxative
 Topic

No well-regulated home should be without laxative, for there is scarcely a day in a family of several persons that someone doesn't complain of 8 headache, of sleeplessness, or show the first signs of a cold.
 A laxative then becomes a necessity or what was a trif1ing congestion at the beginning may run into a serious needed, but simply a mild laxative tonic, that will make the liver active and stir up the bowels People who have tried a great many things, and are themselves heads of families, who have seen the little ills run to big ones, will tell you that there is nothing better than Dr. CaldwelPs Syrup Pep sin, which you can obtain at any drug store for fifty cents or one dollar a bottle, the latter being the family size.
 Among the great believers in Syrup Pepsin for constipation in old or young and as a general household emergency remedy, is Mrs. M. F. Smith, 710 N. Cherry St, San Antonio, Tex. To use her own words she says she will bless Dr. Caldwell to her dying day for she believes that through his remedy, Syrup Pepsin, she found the way to permanent good health.
 Dr. Caldwelps Syrup Pepsin is sci entifically compounded and its purity is Vouched for. Mothers give it to tiny babies, and grown people, taking a little larger amount, find it equally

many or England or any other nations any favorS, and 1 arrived at my con- cIuslons in this matter long before the English or any other foreign country raised any question about this matter. l am also opposed to giving any favors to the men who own the ships engaged in the coastwise trade These ships that now go from New York down the Atlantic coast, around Cape Horn, and up the Pacl1c coast to San Francisco are provided with a canal at Panama which saves thousands of miles of their ocean trip, and l think it is mistaken economic policy to tax all our people forever to pay the interest on thls S400, ,0O0.00 which the canal has tcost, and the expense of maintaining the machinery to transport them through the canal from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and to pay for the expense of forufying and protecting the canal, and make a present of it to the ship owners.
 To Vote as Before.
 T do not expect to take any active . part in the discussion of this question as my views are already at length i1l the Congressional Record, and are well known, but inasmuch as l have to vote as I think, and as I have not changed my mind since I last voted, l shall be compelled to vote as I did before on this question when it comes to a vote"
 The senator from Connecticut was chairman of the committee on inter oceanic canals of the last congress, with Senators Borah, Bristow, Perkins, Page, Jones, Townsend, Simmons, Percy, Thornton mad O'Gorman. The majority Of the members of this com mittee voted for free tolls, and it will be recalled that Senator O'GorInan of New York, who is still exerting i'm pressive influence against the repeal of the measure, was one of the strongest in his fight for free tolls.
 The statement that the Connecticut delegation in congress will be divided in its vote when the matter comes up for settlement in the house has attract ed much attention particularly the fact that Congressman Reilly will not stand with President Wilson in voting for the repeal of the provision. Strong pres- sure has been brought to bear upon him by practically every Irish and state to exert his influence against the repeal of the Panama exemption of coastwise vessels, and it has been said that the constant importuning of the congressman had gotton so on the nerves of the popular Tom that he succumbed to his present illness. Those who know him, however, and are familiar with some of the political tribulation he had to pass through during the present administration in the settling of appointments cannot accept with the credulity of the casual observer the first named cause for his indisposition.

Caused SoninLaw to Sue Father in = Law at Columbia for Money Loaned.

The case of Jake Berkowitz of Co., lumbia vs. NJ kantrowitz of Willi- mantle, was tried before Justice Clay ton E. Hunt at Yeomans hall Colum- bia. Wednesday. The suit was to re- cover SS2 which the plaintiff claimed had been loaned defendant at. three separate times but which the defend ant claimed had been paid. The plain tiff in the case is the son-in-law of the defendant and the trouble between them seemed to have originated over the wedding expenses incident to the marriage of plaintiff with the daugh . ter of defendant. Several witnesses were heard. As some of them could not speak English an interpreter was employed. Judge Hunt decided for the plaintiff and notice of an appeal was given by counsel for the defend ant. The lawyers in the case were Danehey for plaintiff and Hinman for defendant both of Winimantfc

BRANDEGEE FOR REPEAL
 OF CANAL TOLLS EXEMPTION.
Claims Present Regulation is Favofit-
 ism for Coastwise Owners.

Correspondence of Senator Frank B. Brandegee received in New Haven shows that the senior senator from Connecticut stands as he did when the measure was being discussed before the senate committee on interoceanic canals, in 1913, in his opposition to free tolls Tor coestWise steamers using the Panama canal. He says he does not expect to take any active part in the discussion when the issue comes up again for the repeal of the act. but in asmuch as he has not changed his mind he vii vote as previously against bill
 Senator Brandegee predicates his stand upon the two salient reasons ad- Vanced by the persons who are op- posed to free tolls for United States vessels, namely, that to permit such a practice would be a violation of the Hay-Pauncefote treaty, and, secondly, that 1t is a mistaken economic policy to tax all the people of the United States for the cost of the canal construction and the cost of it's operation, by favor ing owners of coastwise vessels.
 His Own Statement.
 Senator Brandegee's letter in full follows:
 When I was chairman of the sen
 
 before the democrats took control of the senate, and during the passage of the so-called Panama canal bill, I took the position that every vessel that passed through the Panama canal, for which we had paid S40O, 600 900, ought to pay for the service rendered. Our coastwise shipping already has a mo- nopoly, as our laws forbid foreign yes sels to engage in our coastwise trade. I see no reason why we should tax all the people to pay for carrying these ships from the Atlantic ocean to the Pacific ocean free of charge
 T also was of the opinion that we were prevented from discriminating as to charges in favor of our coast wise shipping by the language of the Hay Pauncefote treaty. which proVid- ed that the canal should be free and open to the ships of all nations upon terms of perfect equality I therefore voted both in committee and on the floor of the senate against giving a free pass to any vessel going through the canal I have not changed my mind about this matter, although the presi- dent seems to have changed his.
 Opposed to Any Favors.
 q am perfectly willing to let the democrats fight it out among them selves. I would not vote to give Ger
