STEAMER CHELSEA
 BREAKS HER PROPELLER.
Strikes Bottom in Channel in Harhor
 -Towed to New Lcndon.

The steamer Chelsea of the Norwich and New York Propeller company broke her propeller soon after leaving her dock on the outward trip from here for New York at 5.SO Tuesday evening" and was forced to anchor in the stream off the new dock to await help.
 She had a full cargo of freight on board, but only a few passengers.
 The tide Tuesday evening was the lowest in years, and it is believed the boats propeller struck a submerged log on the bottom. When the officers found their craft disabled they anchor ed and signalled for help by means of their fashlight and whistle
 This attracted the attention of liar bor Master Herman Jackel. Jr... who informed Agent Frederick " R. Knouse of the boats trouble. The agent went to the dock and talked to the boats officers from shore, and then arranged to have a tug come from New London as soon as possible in the evening to take the Chelsea there. The steamer reached New London in tow in time to transfer her passengers for New York to the New London line boat.
 The Chelsea is to go on the dry dock at ' o'clock this morning. for re- pairs to her propeller.

"I am New Man Since stuart's Dys- pePsia Tablets Gave Me New
 Stomach and Appetite"

If the stomach is overworked. its muscles become tired and gradually grow weaker and weaker, until they are unable to take care of the food properly. The glands fail to provide the juices necessary to digest the food. Gases form and cause all sorts of pain, misery and wrechedness. as well as extreme danger to the heart.
 It is then that the stomach calls for help. Ordinary medicines are inpos- sible. They not only fail to help the stomach but injure the entire system. Medical men have studied the stomach and have discovered that the digestive juices consist largely of pepsin and nitrogenous ferments. W hat, then, would be more natural than to supply these properties artificially when the stomach is unable to produce them-
 That is the object of Stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets. These powerful little agents relieve the stomach of it's bur den, thereby giving it an opportunity to regain it's normal strength. They tone up, strengthen and revitalize the secretory glands, mucous membranes, absorbing glands and muscular walls. They restore to the stomach its lost powers of digestion so that 1t can again do it's work without assistance. They contain, in a concentrated form. every element necessary to digest all sorts of food, whether acid or aka line.
 If you experience an oppressive feel ing just inside the lower end of your breast bone and extending upward to- wards your heart do not hesitate an instant. Get Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets from the nearest druggist at once and take one. In a few minutes the pain will leave you and you will feel better. Take a tablet after each meal for several days and your stomach will once more perform it's duties. All druggists sell them at soc box.

Subject of Address by Rev. Joel B..
 SIocun, D. D., at Cutlery.

Rev. Joel B. Slocum, D. D.. was the speaker at the Y. M. c. A. meeting al the Cutlery Tuesday noon and his sub ject was Tomorrow. He said in part:
 There must be some thought for the morrow, some anticipation of tomor rows needs. But 1t is today that we live and move and have our being. It is tomorrow that we must do our work and make our preparation for the fu- ture. Recently I heard a man say. jokingly: T never do today what can put off until tomorrow" I am glad he was only Joking. The old max i'm that suggests that we never should put off until tomorrow the thing that we can do today is a safer rule of conduct.
 I am simply protesting against this tomorrow spirit; the idea that it can be done tomorrow and that there is no use hurrying about it today
 According to the story, old Rip Van Wrinkle used to say i've sworn off" as though he really meant to stop drinking. But he was accustomed to add quickly (for fear the boon com panion might change his mind ard withdraw the offer to treaD: q won't count this onei" There are people wnn start out on the new year with ac- mirable resolutions, bus wr0 sr n fa' into the old ways and who say: T

Fire Does Extensive Damage to House at Corner of Eleventh Street and Central Avenue,

Shortly after 9.30 o'clock Tuesday morning fire broke out in the two- story frame building at the corner of Eleventh street and Central avenue oc-' cupied by Gilbert E. Talbot and own ed by the Albro estate. MT. Talbot was m the house at the time and it was he who discovered the flames creeping up the walls of one of the rooms. An at- tempt to pull in box 28. located at the corner of Central avenue and Eleventh street, failed. as the box was out ol commission owing to the breaking of one of the fire alarm wires earlier in the morning. From there he ran to the North Main street station, where he summoned the Greeneville Hook and Ladder company, and the two Greene vile companies made a quick response. The fire had gained considerable head way when the firemen arrived and the chemIcal applied had very little effect on the blaze, so that it was necessary to use two streams of water. As 1t was apparent that more help was needed, a telephone call was sent to the central station for aid, but at the time the autochemical was at the West Side fire. After receiving a telephone mes sage. the auto with several men rushed to the scene. rendering effective assist ance. The firemen were handicapped by the extreme cold weather and they had a hard battle with the flames.
 The fire started from an overloaded stove in the parlor of the house and, creeping up the walls of the room, ate into the partitions and soon reached the roof, where the flames were fan ned by a stiff breeze.
 While fighting the fire on the roof Henry Cole, one of the Greeneville vol unteer firemen, crushed the end of one of his fingers when it got caught in the shutoff of nozzle. The injured man was taken into a nearby drug store, where the injury was dressed by Dr. John W. Callahan, who found it necessary to amputate the middle fin- ger of the left hand at the first joint.
 Harry Allen, who was one of those fighting the flames from the inside Of the house, was overcome by the dense smoke and had to be removed to neighboring recdence where he was revived. Joseph Curran, another of the valiant volunteers, received a pain full cut from an axe, but will suffer no iii effects, it is thought. MT. Curran was also struck in the face by one of the streams of water while he was standing on a ladder near the roof.
 The fire was out by 10.30 o'clock, but not until considerable damage had been done by both the flames and wa ter. The south side of the building was practically burned off and several large holes were burned in the roof. The damage to the household furniture will probably be over $500. uninsured, and the damage to the house will total several hundred dollars.
 Mrs. William P. Greene, Mrs Will liam Brown and Mrs. Earl Christman served coffee to the fremen, which was greatly appreciated.
 At 3.30 o'clock Tuesday morning wire of the fire alarm system broke between Schofield's hill and the Greeneville carbarn, thus disabling the system in that section. At the time box 15 was sent in Chief Stanton with Driver Culver and a ineman were at work on the broken wire.
