LAST FLOWER OF AUTUMN
Like Nothing Else That Blossoms u
VIII Make Its Appeal to tho
Traveller.

The sky kissed the earth in consola.
ton; for it's flowers were faded, their
reds. yellows, puppies and pinks over
ridden by the grim drear of brown.
The sweet, soughing plant of the wind
was long since spent; its will now was
determined and it played roughly
among things dead. The crust of. the
earth. no longer mellow, was dry and
finely crumbled to dust. Il covered
he coat of the stranger who travelled
the highway, causing him to blink his
eyes.
For these and for other reasons per.
1laps the sky kissed the earth in con-
ISOLATION.
AS the traveller lifted his eyes his
footsteps halted. Beside him the tan
gled grass of the bank was pale, even
colorless, yet stirring through it was
the magic of a slight fiutter and a CLINT
of color more blue than that of the
%bluebird's wing. 1t was the spot
where grew the blue gentian.
No other flower bore it company.
Alone it had crossed the borderland OF
frost, and for the traveller it changed
the sad look of his surroundings into
those regal and appealingly sweet. He
sat down to rest and his heart beat
with joy, his pulses quickened and his
brain grew clear through the nearness

MAKING HARBoR OF REFUGE
Congress Plans to Rob Cape Hatteras,
] to a Large Extent, Of lts
Periis.

~Gale off Hatteras'' is an entry made
by the captains of coastwise sailins
ships on almost every voyage. For
! years Hatteras has been a place OF
terror, IL not to the mariner, certainly
to the passengers under his charge.
The old storm cape, however, Is soon
to lose a part of it's fear. Man can
no stop the storms, but he is going
TO provide for vessels to escape their
fury.
Y Sea captains n~otoriously are reti-
Acent when passengers ask them ques-
4 tions. No old sailor ever has been
I willing to admit to any of his passen-
gers that Hatteras is any worse than
a hundred other places IN the coast,
and yet he knows that it is about as
! bad a sea spot as can be found any
$where in the whole broad expanse or
ocean. So. while the questioners are
told that off Hatteras the water will
be as calm as anywhere else, captain
/ and crew always make things snug
/ for a gale or worse when approaching
the sea off the headland.
Congress has appropriated $1,40O,-
900 for preliminary work on a Hat
teras sea wall, which is to be a mile
and a half long, 20 feet wide at the
top, and as feet high.
It will be the guarding wall of a
harbor of refuge, into the lee of which
vessels can run for shelter when the
storms rage. This wall will rob the
Hatteras seas of some of their terrors,
and with them will pass some of the
interesting excitement" always felt
by seagoers when they approach the
water zone which always has been
one of tumult.
Little by little man is trying to
make safer the Journeys of those who
go down to the sea in ships. He never
entirely can conquer the ocean,, and
he knows it. 1t is perhaps the one
thing in nature which is absolutely
untamabie.
The shipwrecks off Cape Hatteras
have numbered thousands. The sea
wall will provide means to save lives
and property, but the winds off the
old storm cape still will rage and Oh
occasion work their will.

'BEJEWELLED PAIR
 IN HOSPITAL AFTER
 FATAL AUTO CRASH

! Florence Jackson, colored, 36 Hicks street, Hartford, was killed last night near Warehouse Point while riding to Ethe Hazard Inn with two Bridgeport women. Mrs. Anna Walker, known in this city as Annie Russell and
 Florence Lewis are in a Hartford hospital as result of the accident
 The party, which had left the Walk CT woman's house. 25 Thomas street, yesterday morning, after spending some time in Hartford hired a taxi cab from walter Johnson, a livery man of that city, for ride to the Inn. They were all bejewelled and had plenty of money to spend. Near
 Warehouse Point the cab collided with a. telegraph pole and it is believed the Jackson woman struck a large maple tree into which the cab drove full force. All were thrown out. Florence Jackson died within five minutes from wounds on the head.
 Mrs Walker was severely cut about the face and body and Florence Lewis also received superficial cuts about the face and head. After treatment by Dr. M. J. Kelly, the injured women were returned to Hartford in another taxi-cab sent by the Johnson livery while the body of the Jackson woman was taken to the undertaking parlors of J. E.. Mooney of Windsor Locks. The chauffeur was not severely in- jured.

GERMAN FORCES ON
 OFFENSIVE IN GREAT
 BATTLE NEAR COAST
Sides Trying Accomplish Thanking Movements to Hold Channel Ports-Russians Withdrew Western GaIicia.

connaissance movement, checked by the Germans but all reports agree that the German resistance at Lille continues to be of the most stubborn mature.
 Only the most nneagre reports ar rive from the eastern war zone, but. it; is clear that the Russians are at least holding their own. Both sides evidently are entrencf1ing and the Vis- tuIa river region promises to become another battle of the Aisne. The allies console themselves for the Russian withdrawal from western Ga Icia under the advanced positions near the Russian-Po1ish border. by the be- lief that the Germans, having commit ted themselves to an invasion of Rus sian Poland, will not be as likely to send reinforceKnents to the armies in 1 the west as would have been the case If the Russians had suffered a great reverse nearer the German iron tier.
 Outside of purely military operations interest centers in the Russian empire s ukase against Vodka and in the ef- forts being made to care for the Bel gians still in their Own country and to-fsed and repatriate those who have taken refuge in other countries. Der lin states that no obstacles will be placed in the way of this necessars l work, but, at the same time claims that Germany has done all possible in view of military exigenciess to relieve l the distress in Belgium
 l The Russian enperor,s ukase is said
 to- have been issued in response to
 a wide demand of his people who have
 been atonished by the effect on the
 country: of the prohibition of the use
 of vodka which followed mobihza- ton.

SUBMARINE LOST
 AFTER A VICTORY

PelziA, Oct 21-An official German report on the blowing up of the Japa- nese cruiser Takachfho in Kiau-Chau harbor the night of Oct 1T, sets forth that the German torpedo boat S-90 went to sea with the intention of at tacking a, larger cruiser. Failing in this. she had to content herself with the Takachiho.
 As soon as this vessel had been dis posed of the S-9o attempted to escape. It was found, however, that this movement could not be carried out successfully and she was run upon the beach after which the crew got safely ashore. The Japanese 1ega- ton says that the work of mounting the siege guns before Tsing-Tau has not yet been completed. and that the bombardment of Tsing Tau probably will be delayed for several weeks.
 Dispatches from Tokio received yesterday declared that the SEQ was found ashore and destroyed by the Japanese at a point sixty miles south of Tsing Tau.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1914-10-21

London, Oct. 21-.A comparison of the official reports from Paris and Be@lin leads to the conclusion that all along the western battle front in France and Belgium the Germans have re- stunned the offensive but with their supreme efforts directed against the allies left.
 The news supplementing these off, cial communications, however, indicate ! that on the left at least the allies are not acting merely on the defensive.
 The great turning movement u11- doubted1y is developing through the corner of Belgium bounded by France and the sea but the public remains 1 in a. haze as to whether the turning movement is one on the part of the allies to get around the German right i flank or a German operation to en- velop the allies left.
 The impression grows that the Ger mans are determined to add sDunkfrk to the line of sea,ports now held along the Belgian coast and the allies are making desperate efforts to nur1 back Etae invaders. Dutch sources declare that the Germans have been repuIseo six miles from Ogtend. Late reports I which lack confirmation, state that fthe Germans have abandoned Bruges
 If these reports are true it would in Edfcate that the allies are meeting with
 some success in their efforts to re- l occupy the seacoast
 l The movements along the coast con- l tinue to be more or less in the nature
 of reconnaissance while the aim of the l fighting on the allies left centers I around Lille which is because it's rail
 road and highway connections are ot 1 vital strategic importance to. the Ger i mans. From Lille two roads run out
 to the west-one northerIy to Armen- I,tieres and the other .southerly tc 4 F'ournes through a country which is enclosed and thicE1y populated.
 The French report contents ftse11 with the assertion that these roads I are held by strong forces of German.
 while the Berlin communication claim. victory on them. Operations along these roads may also be merely a re
