STANLEY WORKS TO BUILD
 LARGE PLANT IN CHICAGO
Has Acquired Site in Central Part of Manufacturing
 District.

Feeling the need of an establish ment in the west, the Stanley Works has acquired a large piece of land in the central manufacturing district of Chicago, Illinois, and is planning to erect six-story brick building there for storage and manufacturing purposes.
 The new building will he construct ed as soon as possible. The site is admirably suited for manufacturing purposes and has good railroad facil- ities already installed. It also allows for future. expansion, should this be required. The number of hands em- ployed at first will be small, but this will be augmented as the demand grows.
 The Stanley Works raised $500, 900 a short time ago by increasing it's capital stock from $2,000,0O0 to $2,- 500.000. This was for the purpose of erecting plant in the west, an- other in Canada and for making ex- tensions to its plant in this city. The Chicago location will find long felt want It will be in the heart of the field for raw material and great saving will be thus effected on freight. It will also supply the western and middle western customers of the firm. No plans have been made for the erection of the Canadian plant as yet, it is announced

CONTRACTOR PROMISES
 CONTRIBUTION OF sl,Ooo
Swedish Bethany Church Members Canvassing for
 Mortgage Fund.

Swedish Bethany church canvassers who are raising $5.000 to pay off one half the mortgage taken on the North property, purchased recently, e have received encouragefnent from Eric U. Carlson the building contractor, who has agreed to donate $1,000 if they are successful in collecting $4,OO0 towards the amount. MT. Carlson, who has been a member of the church for many years, takes an active in terest in it's enterprises. and has been known to contribute generously to other causes, which have been undertaken from time to time.
 AS was stated in an issue of the Herald printed late in March, the Swedish Bethany church purchased the property at 21 Franklin square from James S. North. secretary and treasurer of the c. j.. White Manu- featuring company. The consideration was $15,OOO and special committee made up of Pastor G. B. Pihl, Rep resentative Peter Crona and August Olson, closed the deal with $5,000 which they raised by public subscrip- tion, taking a mortgage for the re- maining $10.O00.
 The matter of 1essening the mort gage has not as yet been taken up at meeting of the congregation but industrious members are already at work in the matter and report gener- ous contributions. If the amount is raised, the church will have paid all but $5,000 of the purchase price,
 The Swedish Bethany church owns the frame church building situated at the corner of Main and Walnut streets, and the valuable land upon which it stands. By selling this prop erty the congregation will have enough money to build a new sanc- tuary on the North property which is located on Franklin square

 FROM DINKY WRECK
Railroad Agent COsgr.iff Served With Notice That Miss Mary Began
 Will Sue for Damages.

Will Sue for Damages.
 Notice of the first law suit against the New Haven road for injuries re- ceived in the wreck at Clayton on April Il was served on J. E. Cosgriff, the local agent, yesterday. Constable Wrinkle served the notice which was rlade out by Attorney Joseph G. woods for his client, Miss Mary Began of Washington street.
 In the notice of suit Miss Began asserts that when the ill-fated ddnkey which left this city for Hartford at 3:30 o'clock on Saturday afternoon April II, was derailed at Clayton she was thrown from her seat with great violence, causing her serious injuries. Miss Regan's injuries consisted of badly bruised and wrenched limbs, arms, back and shoulders, 8 painful wound on her head and an exhaustive shock to her nervous system.
 The notice states that the railroad company is to be held responsible for the negligence and carelessness of. it's employees in going at an unwarrant- able rate of speed and then slowing up too suddenly, causing the derail- ment of the train and the resultant in- juries to the plaintiff.

ESTIMATES FIFTY
 IMBECILES IN CITY
Charity Organization Asked to Pre- pare List of Feeble Minded Chil-
 dren for Dr. La MOure.

New Britains Charity organization has been asked by Dr. Charles T. La Moure, who is the state superin- tendent of the asylum for the care of feeble minded citizens of Connecti- cut, to prepare a list of the children Tn this city who are mentally deficient. MISS Elsie c. Osborn, who is the act Ing agent of the organization, is trying To ascertain the figures for Dr. La Moure and from her investigations reels sure that there are at least fifty such unfortunates in this city.
 The Charity organization has much work of this nature to do as we'll as other work along the lines of caring for the poor and needy, and it is quite Q task. At 8 recent meeting Dr. La Moure declared that the best way to care for the mentally feeble is to erect cottage houses for them on waste land and have those who are able till the soil and reclaim the prop erty. By this method the location of the asylums could be changed every generation and some good would be gained from the work done by the imbeciles. At present the state has a school at Lakeville for the feeble minded, but this will accommodate only 300.
 Among it's many other outside du- ties the Charity organization has to furnish much information to other cities. A letter has been received from Newburgh, N. Y.. asking for in- formation regarding the cleanup week and home gardens in this city. In this communication the Newburgh au- thorities stated that they had first asked advice from Baltimore, but that they had been referred to New Brit ain, showing that New Britain's fame is not alone confined to the hardware industry.

Delegates Hear Reports at Quarterly Session-Will
 EndOW Free Cot.

Both morning and afternoon sessions were held at St. Marks Episcopal church today at the quar- terly meeting of the Hartford Arch deaconry, comprising all the Episco- pal churches in Hartford county. About thirty-five delegates were present and in the absence of Arch deacon J. A. Riddle, of South Man chester, the Rev. Harry I. Bodley, rec- tor of St. Marks church. presided.
 This mornings session opened at Il o'clock with a communion service and a sermon delivered by the Rev. w. H. Moore, pastor of the South Glaston- bury Episcopal church. The business session began at 12:15 o'clock and at l o'clock a luncheon was served by the ladies of the local parish.
 One of the most important reports made at this mornings business hour was that of the cot fund. It was re- ported that about all of the $6.0O0 needed to endpw children's free cot in the Hartford hospital has been raised and the cot will probably be placed in the hospital before very long. S.t9s
 This afternoons session was called to order at 2:15 o'clock and the re- ports from tho various ofilcials were received and statements from tl1e several missions, which are being financially assisted by the Episcopal church, were read. All the reports were encouraging ones and the clergy looks forward to another bright and prosperous quarter in their work.
 While all of the Episcopal churches in Hartford county are entitled to be represented at today's meeting either by their rectors or lay delegates the attendance was lower than ordinary because of the threatening weather.

The ability to make really good
dumplings is to be desired in these
days of high prices; and if we can
get as much food value from half the
quantity of meat, while adding to 1t
palatable and digestibie amount OF
durnplings, we will get a better pro-
portion of protein to the needs of the
body. Dumplings made by the follow
ing recipe will be light and dry, and
Will be found excellent to serve with
chickens, guinea fowl or veal, and
may be reheated in the gravy in cas-
serole. They may be made successtuI
On the top of the stove. also, if care
is taken to keep the liquid at the sim
mering point, and not let boil rapidly
after the dumplings are dropped in
Have the gravy thinner Than is want
ed to serve, as it will thicken some
with the cooking of the dImplings.
For five persons, beat one egg till
smooth and light, add one cup of sweet
milk, one-fourth of teaspoonful OF
salt, and -four enough to make stl1
batter Mix one teaspoonful of baking
powder with the last of the -four, and
beat well. Drop by teaspoonful into
the hot gravy, cover and cook Is min
