zUDN|k DISCHARGED
 BY JUDGE MESK|LL
Rose Smith Sent to House Of the Good Shepherd.

As a sequel to the alleged fight and assault in Barney Miller's on Satur- day night Judge Meskill, in the police court this morning, discharged Alex Zudnik who was charged with creat- ing a disturbance in the store. A. Fucker, head clerk in the store, ap- peared with a slight scratch under his eye, and testified that Zudnik punched him in the eye (Oui! Oui! OuiD His testimony was borne out by s. Dubois, Isador Bassam and E. s. Kallman, all clerks in the. store, and Jacob Kaplan, a baker. On the other hand Attorney w. F. Delaney, who represented the defendant, brought in two witnesses, Alex Gershl1i and John Hickman, who testified that the clerks started all the trouble by their insolent ways and that when one of them showed Zudnik down n short flight of stairs he crashed into Fucker and scratched his eye. Officer Lamphere testified that witnesses at the time had told him the same story as was given in court by witnesses for the defense Tn discharging the accused the judge said that he took the same view of the case as did Off,
 
 doubt enough about Zudnik's guilt to warrant his dismissal.
 Rose Is Sent Away.
 Rose Smith, aged sweet seventeen and frequenter of tango halls, was sentenced to incarceration at the House of the Good Shepherd in Hart ford. The fair Rose appeared in chambers dolled out in a f1ashy green coat and a petulant face. When she went out it was in sobs and protesta- tions that she "just wouldn't go to that horrid place."
 She was arrested on complaint of her parents who feared that she might fall into evil ways. She has not been home for about week and was ar rested at the Hotel Beloin last night by Officer Kelly.
 Stole Circus Blanket.

He protested innocence and declared he took the blanket to use to sleep on. Evidence being against him he was held pending the notification and action of the Reform school author ities. ~

a more hopeful view of the situation, all seeing further victory in the fall.
 It will be noticed that one side pays suit of the contest in Hartford, while the other side does not refer to it at all. Yet the election in the capital city was the most important of all, in fact more so than all the others put together. National affairs had no more to do with the election of the democratic ticket there than they did with the republican victory in New Britain. It is an easy matter to find the cause of the changes in every community If an intelligent effort is made to look for them. Business and like and dislike of candidates govern local elections. If a voter dislikes a candidate for a national office he may support him because the opponent may represent an issue to which the voter is opposed,
 
 but if it is a local election he will vote against him under4sall circum- stances.
 The warden of the borough of Naugatuck during the past two years has been a socialist, but this year he was beaten by a republican, because it is stated that the socialists had been carried off their feet by the two victories, neglected the promises made and sought to strengthen their own party and out they went. The tariff. currency, tolls question or the Mexican war had no more to do with that contest than did the basketball games played there last winter. And the same is true of all other elections in this state.

FACE BROKE OUT
 IN RED SPOTS
BIotchy All Over. Became Scaly. Scratched Until Made Them Bleed. Used Cuticura Soap and Oint- ment, Face and Head Cured.

24 Gilbert St., New Britain, Conn. - My little boys face used to get awful rcd and sometimes when used to wash it 1t would bleed. Then it got blotchy all over and was horrid looking. His face broke out in red spots and then became scaly. He used to scratch them until he would make them bleed. Then his head started to break out. He was restless at night and com plained of his face being sore. His head was all little cuts from scratching it.
 "So thought would send for sample of the Cuticura Soap and Ointment. I only used them for few days when thero was such change in his looks. His face began to get clear. When the sample was gono got one cake of Cuticura Soap and one box of Cuticura Ointment. I washed his face with the Cuticura Soap and warm water every night and morning and applied the Cuticura Ointment for four weeks and his face was cured. I got another cake of Cuticura Soap and one box of Cuticura Oint- ment and was only using them for two weeks and they made his scalp nice and clean. His head was cured" (Signed) Mrs. Isabelle Guenther, May 26, 1913.
 For treating poor complexions, red, rough hands, and dry, thin and falling hair, Cuti- cura Soap and Cuticura Ointment have been the worlds favorite for more than a gen. eration.

Views on all sides Of timely
 questions as discussed in ex. office.
The Menacing Slides.
(The Detroit Free Press


 According to what is meant to be a reassuring message from Panama, fears that the opening of the canal, set for January. 1915, would have to be indefinitely postponed have been growing less each day because dredges and steamshovels are taking out dirt and rocks much faster than they slide into the canal.
 This is an admission that there has been some serious anxiety over the condition of the slides in ,Culebra. cut. It is also an indirect admission that this anxiety is not altogether thing of the past. Indeed, further along in this "reassuring'' message, there is a statement that the engineers cannot tell what may happen to the canal through the caving in of hills until after the rainy season has passed.
 The truth is that engineers at Panama have found the menaces of the slides much greater than they at first supposed, or. at least than they at first announced to the world. This, of course, is not the fault of the ex- perts If there is any fault it is to be charged up to soil conditions at the isthmus, which have proven them serves uSCcpllVo ana III d l1IeIdl SCHoC slippery.
 The people of the United States may take comfort in one assurance, which is that present menace is not a fatal one The ditch has been dug, the engineering feats which seemed beyond human achievement have been performed What now remains is a mere matter of endurance and patience, so far as the slides are con cerned. The engineers must dredge until the hills are so far worn away that the slides can no longer inter fere with navigation. After that there will remain the other question as to the stability of the underlying for nations to support permanently the immense weight of the lock structures and their contents, but on this point time afod time alone can furnish in- formation. Engineers differ about it now and have differed since the canal work started.

Exercised Her Rights.
Cincinnati Enquirer.)

Feeling that the sarcasm of poem upon the subject of female suffrage was intended for her, a Cleveland woman determined to avenge her wounded feelings. She argued in this peculiarly feminine fashion: :: ''The paper did not use my name. Therefore I cannot sue it. But I can and must chastise the editor and the poet. As believer in equal rights I cannot call upon my husband to administer the thrashing, but must do it myself.' ; :s
 Borrowing a whip, she first visited the editor and when he admitted that he had published the anonymous poem she proceeded to the castigation. The unhappy editor had a walking stick, and with this warded off the blows. Next came the poet. who was found frittering away his time in a cigar, store. When the whip, had ceased its lashings he lighted another cigaret and remarked that, devotion to the muse had it's drawbacks. The averaging virago returned to her home and made the final announcement that women are able to protect them selves, and that her name as a leader of a political movement had been vindicated.
 What she overlooked was that nel- ther the editor nor the poet forgot themselves so far as to return blow for blow, which they might have done had the suffragist's husband acted as her proxy. Nor did the policeman on the beat hale her off to the gaol for fighting and acting in disorderiy manner contrary to the statutes made and provided. Nothing of the kind! It is suspected that after she had dis appeared around the corner the edi- tor, the poet and the policeman came together and poured a libation to some divinity, rendering thanks that life was no worse for her tantrum. Sex conspiracy in it's most hideous form!, At the same time the avenger Is warned to keep out of the path of the wife of the editor and the wife Of the poet. They may prove to be as peculiar about punishments as she is.

MILITARY INSTRUCTION CAMPS
Mexican Crisis Will Not Cause Aban- donment of War Department Plans.

dOnment of War Department Plans.
 Washington, May 6.-There will be no suspension or abandonment of the elaborate plans of the war department for holding the students military in- struction camps this summer because of the Mexican crisis. In fact, the Mexican trouble has served to em- phasize the necessity for such prep aration of the youth of the country, in the opinion of the general staff.
 Many letters are being received from heads of educational institu- tions and from individual students, asking for information as to the de- partments plans for the summer. Answers are being returned that the four camps for student instruction will be held at Asheville, N. C., July to August inclusive; at Burling- ton, Vermont, and Luddington, Mich., during the same period, and at Mon- terey, Cal, from June 26 to July S1, and applicants for instruction are re- quested to present their papers to the department at the earliest possible moment.

Tn Hartford a thousand Connecticut women marched through the streets to show their desire for the vote. The sympathies of thousands of other wo- men were with them. while by still others the demonstration was regard ed with feelings ranging all the way from mild interest to strong disap- proval. The desired end was at tained, of calling the attention of the women of the state to the vitality of the movement For it is with the wo- men themselves that the decision lies as to whether or not they receive the vote. When they very generally want it they will get it.-Bridgeport Stan dard.

SUNDAY LAW AT sAvm ROCK

Is it the plan to try and prove that the |judge whA disnaissed them as not hav1ngsbssn proven erred and that the law must be interpreted as certain people. think 1t should bs7 It would ssenas so. When moving picture men wsre argested on Sunday some Few weeks 70 at savin Rock the casesawAr4k dAsnzissed because the fo1zn.. Of sntertainnent did not dis tu1b tho puhalo peace. Others who had been running various forms of amuseznsnts AE the same place elim- 4nassd al the noise produnins fea- tures 1ast Sunday. and yet were ar- 'restsd and as In tho former cases they ws1e dismissed. Those who are dis sat1shed with the decision are de- sirous of having the same men rear Tested on bench warrants and having thsir cases sent to the supreme court for an interpretation of the Sunday law. there having been no decision to that effect ever obtained.
 It Is extreGeiy difncult to please pons people on the matter of Sum day observance. They cling to the old puritanical idea. and although times are changed they still adhere
 
 to their old opinions and are unwill- ing to submit to any other ruling. The residents of West Haven are not alone in this feeling. People with the same notions find their way into the legislature and prevent the pas sage of any law to bring about the change that the majority of the resi- dents of this state evidently feel is desirable. It is going pretty far when they refuse to acquiesce in the de- efsion of court of law in which the 6nly question was whether the public peace was disturbed. We surely have some queer people in Connecticut.

This yearning for the open air upon the only day in the week in which it can be enjoyed is the fund amental and dominating cause of the demand for more. liberal observ- ance of the day. The demand does not spring, from spirit of irrever- ence. Irreverence has nothing to do with it. It is the direct effect of that sense of physical freedom which the open air instantly breeds in one. It would be not at all diffi- cult to meet the yearning involved if all people were agreed upon the use to which they ws.nr to put their freedom on Sunday. What compli- cates the problem and impels a gen. erous view is the fact that people diff fer in their recreative needs as they do in their physical needs.- New ,Ha- ven Journal-Courier
