Country Children Reported Not So
Healthy AZ City Children

Most people have taken it for
granted that children in the country
are far more healthy than those in
the city It is therefore cause of
considerable surprise to learn, as a
result OF the recent investigation Of
the health of school children con-
Quoted by the joint committee of the
National Council of Education and
the American Medical Association,
that among children in the rural pub
lie schools there is far more physi-
cal effectiveness than among those
in the city schools. It therefore be-
hooves those having to do with rural
schools to see to it that the hy-
gienic conditions of these schools
are improved and that the instruc-
ton in physiology and hygiene be
especially directed towards improv-
ing health conditions in general in
rural communities.

OFFICERS RESIGN
RATHER THAN
FIGHT ULSTER
A Hundred in Currah Camp Give
Up Commissions
AN ARMY CRISIS EXPECTED
Reports Hinged with Politics But
Situation Believed 10 Re Unus-
uafiy eorous

London, March 21.-The officers of
regiments in ireland which have
been ordered to Ulster are resigning
their commissions. This oft predict
ed result of what the Unionis.s call
the bullying and dragooning of Ulster
was the outstanding feature of the
situation last night. 1t is impossible
as yet to indicate the ex ent of the
detection. but Dublin dispatches say
that about hundred officers have al
ready resigned at the Curragh camp
alone.
All reports from Ireland agree in
regard to the movements CT troops
ammunition and provisions for the in
creased garrisons in User and other
preparations to prevent disorders,
but apart from these facts the ac-
counts are strongly tinged with bias
on the respective sides.
The Unionists papers talk of the Vol
unteers strainlng a. the leash and say
that the slightest spark will kindle
war and that nothing but the infiu-
ence of Sir Edward Carson Will pre-
vent 4 catastrophe. While the Lib
eral press says nothing of danger it
treats the military movements as a
precaution against riots and acca-
sionally sneers at the Volunteers.
Everything was quiet at Belfast
1aqf NIGHT and tho rnovpmenfe nf the
soldiery did not evoke any demonstra
lions.
The designations mentioned above
are said to be mainly in the cavalry
regiments. This is likely enough as
British cavalry officers are usually
rich men by whom military career
is often. although not always adopted
as an attractive pastime rather than
a serious occupation.
1t is expected that the designations
from the infantry regiments will be

unable to afford to wreck their ca.
reers in order to humor political pre-
ferences.
1t was said at the War Office late
tonight that "rumors have been re-
ceived of a few designations and
these are being dealt WITH" but i.
was absolutely denied that all the ca
valry officers at the Curragh camp
had resigned as rumored.

GOVERNMENT HAS.
AGREEMENT WITH
NEW HAVEN
Plan of Dissolution Has Been
Decided Upon
MAY RETAIN SOUND LINES
Boston and Maine Holdings and All
Trolley Roads Must Be
Disposed OF

Washington, March 20.-Af.er
day of conferences between Attorney
General McReynolds and representa-
tives of the New Haven railroad all
doubts had disappeared that a salts
factory agreement In regard to the
dissolution of the big railroad sys-
TEN will be reached.
Briefly, the plan on which an
agreement soon will be announced is
unders God to be as follows:
The Boston and Maine stock is to
be put into the hands of five trus-
tees, who are to dispose Of it within
two and half years If practicable,
but their term of service may be ex-
tended by the Federal courts to
which the reorganization decree is
to be submitted"
The Rhode Island trolleys and the
Connecticut trolleys are to be put
into the hands of two sets of trustees
who are to have definite terms OF
service in which to dispose of these
properties. The Massachusetts troll
ley lines viii be disposed of by the
New Haven itself.
The Merchants and Miners Trans
pcrtation Company, the Eastern
Steamship Corporation and the
Maine Steamship Company are to be
disposed of by the road according to
the agreement announced by Mr.. FL
lott on January 10.
The petition of the New Haven to
retain the so-called Sound lines is
pending before the Interstate Com
merce Commission. Should the com
mission order these lines sold the
New Haven is to sell with them its
ex .ensive water terminal properties.
Should the commission approve the 4
petition the Department of Justice
will reserve the right to seek their
dissolution from the road under the
terms of the Sherman act.

HARP RECITAL
Annie Louise E'avid Delights Audi.
ence at Baptist Church


Before house crowded TO the
doors, Annie Louise David of New
York city gave her first harp recital
before a Bennington audience in the
First Baptist church last evening.
Disappointed in not hearing Mad
anne David on Wednesday evening,
the audience seemed keenly athirst
for her appearance last night; and to
say that everyone was more than
satisfied is speaking mildly. Such
melody and harmony, such strength
and sweetness, such vivacity and
pathos as were wrung from the tune
full strings astonished all; while the
picture of the harplst and the golden
harp IN a background of pine and
palm was exquisite in the extreme.
Again and again did the audience
show its appreciation by prolonged
applause, in response to which
Madame David generously gave a
soulful encore. Grace, sympathy
and strength were admirably blend
ed in her art, and her technique was
perfect. Amid the intraoacies OF her
compositions Madame David was a.
home and at ease. Her performance
on the difficult instrument revealed a
thorough mastery OF details. The
following program will show the
variety of her selections:
