Familiar Sounds.

Then we descened the dark iron
stairway to the sidewalk As we
emerged into The morning sunlight
what was it now coming from the bell
fry above? Nothing less than THE
Chapel Steps" the song written by
Prof. Cow Of Nassar, and dear to gem
erations of Brown men. As we walk
ed onward amid the tall bindings,
the notes were still dropping down
from the sky, and now the tune was
"Alma mater, we hail thee with loyal
devotion"
Through the pealing Of those bells
certain encouraging facts were borne
home to us. One Of them is the grow
ing love of music in American cities.
Every dollar spent on worthy munich
pal music is a dollar saved in the up
keep of Jail and workhouse and asy-
lunI A municipal organ, played each
day at noon by a municipal organist,
has proved in several cities a vast
economy. Another most encouraging
fact is the growing civic consciousness
of our American cities, rObly ex-
pressed in that Springfield campanile.
Our cities are being slowly trans
formed from mere aggregations of
windows and chmneys into living or
ganisms. throbbing with a municipal
pride which expresses itself in broad
Fairgrounds, inviting parkways, his
toric monuments and Ginning bells.
The city on the bank of the Connect
icut gave to one listener at least a
morning Inspiration that will last for
years"

BLACKSMlTHS JOIN
 RANKS OF SEEKERS OF EIGHT HOUR DAY
International Vice President Here to Perfect Organiza-
 tion of Workers.

One more step in the plans to make Bridgeport a, city of eight hour work ing day, is being taken by the Inter national Association of B1acksrniths. John Tobin, vice president of the as- sociation. is in this city to organize the workmen.
 Many of the b1acksmfths in the ci- ty are working more than eight hours. Their. pay, it is claimed is not what it ought to be. Accordingly arrange ments are being made to attempt to better conditions.
 John Roche, general organizer Of the American Federation of Labor, asserted today that working condi- tions in Bridgeport have been among the lowest, if not the lowest in the country. Bridgeport workmen, he as- serted, have been underpaid more so than other cities workmen. The ,fb1acksmiths were to have met last night but owing to the fact that the meeting was little advertised, not many attended. Another meeting will be held soon.

LAUNDRY STRIKE OvER;; GIRLS GET
 EIGHT HOUR DAY
Crawford Employees Will, Re- turn to Work as Soon as
 They're Organized

The Crawford Laundry Go. has granted the eight hour day as the result of a walkout there yesterday afternoon. As soon as the girls have been organized they will go back to work, probably tomorrow.
 George B. Crawford, president. and treasurer Of the company. announced last night that he would grant the eight hour day immediately.
 MT Crawford said today: When we dropped from 10 hours to nine hours there was no change in wages. Because bushes required it we went back to nine hours and a, half for a short time but it was intended to re- turn taA nine. The girls were, offered the nine hours yesterday just before 12. I told them that they could have the eight hour day in two months, when it is expected we would receive new machinery for an enlargement of the plant. By the increase in the plant, some of the departments could be relieved.
 s'The girls didn't want to wait Last night promisedEth eight hour day beginning immediately The girls came back this morning but they dfd- mt go to work, because they're wait ing until they get organized
 MT. Crawford said it was a mistake that he had intended to go to the Maine Woods for a vacation, and the vacation was interrupted by the strike.

Mrs. Charles w. Wixsom, In Civilian Togs, Substitutes
 For Her Husband.

Families on R. F. D. Route No. 1 are having their mail delivered by a Wo- man these days, rather unusual pro- eeeding in these parts. Mrs. Charles w. Wixsom, wife of the regular car rier of the route, is substituting for her husband and he in turn is substi- tuting for Rural Garner Theodore Crane of Route No. 52.
 Some time ago Mrs. Wixsom quali- fled as her husbands substitute and was appointed to the position, so that now she takes his place regularly whenever it is necessary. Not being, however. a regular mail carrier, Mrs. Wixsom does not have to wear the well known gray uniform of those who hold that position, but is garbed in or- dinary feminine clothes when she makes her daily trips.

STRIKING GIRLS CHEER
 COMMITTEE RETURNING
 WITH NEWS OF VICTORY
Warner and His Workers Dis cuss Conditions in Amicable Conference Lasting Several } Hours and Reach Satisfac- tory Terms.

With an air of expectancy dozens Of girl and women strikers lined the pl- azzas of the houses in the vicinity of the Warner Bros. factory yesterday while their committee conferred with D. H. Warner over the terms of the agreement by which the strike might be ended. It had been reported that the committee was to meet MT. War ner at 1 o'clock and @ numb Der of the girls who became fatigued left the crowded Eagles hall and went to their homes in the vicinity of the shop. There gathered on the porches they watched for the coming of the com mittee.
 The committee went to the factory in jitney bus. Its personnel was Miss Lillian Cox, chairman; Miss Lou ise Dacey, Ethel Kline, Mrs. Elizabeth Chase, Mrs. Jennie Fields and Miss Ethel Birow. The committee was in conference with MT Warner for sew eral hours, the principal topic of dis, cussion being the proposed increase for piece workers. MT. Warner brought in some of the foremen to figure out the price that might be allowed and at last the committee agreed to- accept 12 1-2 per cent. increase in place of the 10 per cent increase which MT. War ner offered and in place of the 20 per cent. increase which the girls asked.
 oONAeoS7NO question of f1ning girls for poor work or work that is spoiled. MT. Warner asked them what they wanted done in such cases where ineompetency was shown
 Discharge those girls,'' promptly replied Miss COX. You Ehouldn't have incompetent girls in your factory. We are all competent. We can perform our work properly and we don't want to be penalized for incompetent work ers.'' =
 '.A1l right replied MT. Warner. If you are satisfied that way, so am l.
 The committee left the factory well satisfied with their efforts and re- turned to Machinists' hall in Cannon street prior to the meeting to be held in the evening. In the meantime the girls assembled at Eagles hall had grown restless and the organizer, Miss Scully, decided to dismiss them until evening. They were coming down Main street in crowds when the jitney bus with their committee drove up and the passing of the jitney was a sort of triumphal procession. The girls on the sidewalks cheering and waving handkerchiefs and the girls on the committee waving back and shouting: Its all right. everything is all right

FRANK LYNCHERs MUST BE FOUND
 SAYS GOVERNOR
centinued fro1n Page 1

The statement made by R. E. David son, chairman of the state prison commission last night, that he did not believe anyone could be blamed for the conditions which made it compar- atively easy for the mob to take Frank from the prison seemed to in dica,te that the prison feature might not be investigated immediately. The commission has absolute authority in such matters.
 The mob had planned it's work so carefully and acted so quickly that edgeville.
 Marietta rapidly assumed it's nor nal boise after Franks body had been cut down from a tree near the town and brought to Atlanta Here immediate interest in the case ended when the body accompanied by Mrs. Frank and a few friends, last mid night was started lon it's way to Brooklyn, the home of Franks par ents.
 Those who today studied more close ly the movements of the mob at Mill ledgeville are convinced that a few members were in the vicinity of the town before the main party arrived. It must have taken some time to cut the telephone wires in the manner in which it was done. None of the auto mobiles bearing the 1ynchers was seen
 
 prison.
 Many in Marietta believe plans sim liar to those which were successful Monday night were frustrated a month ago. The NGilledgeville company of militia was ordered to hold itself ready to proceed to the state farm As far as generally known reports that a mob might attack the prison were no more persistent than they had been for some time. Prison officials never said exactly why they requested the militia to be held ready. It was intimatedA at Marietta that there mad been a '1eak'' Those who tried to follow the decoy automobile which carried the party of lynchers to near Eatonton where a demonstration took place said today these plans had been carefully ar ranged. Chains were placed on the tires which made trailing easy and after the machine crossed the bridge over Little river, the chains were re- moved, which made it difficult to fol- low the car.

BRITISH

London, Aug. 1S.-A further advance of 500 yards by the allied troops on GaIlipoh peninsula. is announced in a report from General Sir Ian Hamilton. the British expeditionary commander in-chief, given out here today. The statement follows:
 sir Ian Hamilton reports that in the southern zone the situation was unchanged during the 14th and 18th The Turks kept up the usual artillery fire without much effect
 "In the mortimer zone, the right flank of the Australian and New Zealand army corps position was heavily at tackled during the night Of the 14th- 18th, but all attacks were repulsed. At SuvIa the troops on the left flank made a short advance, on-the afternoon of the 15th, with a view to straighten- ing out the line. They moved forward under considerable gun and rifle fire and gained about 500 yards, capturing a Turkish trench and taking two ofd- cers and 20 other prisoners.

World Adduces More Xvi dence That Plant is
 Financed By Germans.
HEYNAN, GERMAN
 AGENT, TREASURER
Hoadley Promotion Made Contract For Great Store
 of Explosives.

The New York World to-day prints further facts in connection with it's claims that The Bridgeport Projecti1e Company is organized with the aid of German Funds and for the purpose of providing the Teutonic Allies with munitions.
 The concern is represented to be a promotion by Joseph H. Hoadley, of the International Power Company, who is also in control of the American & British Manufacturing Company of this oity.
 Some of these facts come from c. H. Sallade, a salesman for the Aetna Powder Company. This company controls dozen plants for the manu- facture of snokeless powder and con tracted with the Bridgeport Projec- tile Company to supply it with G. 5O0.oO0 bounds of explosives.
 Sallade says that he connected ne- gotiations for the sale of the powder with J. H. Hoadley and Walter H. Knight, president of the projecti1e company, that they told hirn they were to make munitions for the Unit ed States government and for the AL lies.
 Afterward he met Carl Heynan. Urea surer of the .Projectile Company. He thought Heynan seemed like a German, but accepted Hoadley's state ment that he was an American with no German sympaf hies. He never learned that Heynan had been com nected with the Hamburg-American line.
 The president Of the Aetna explo- sive company is an Eng1ishman, and is represented as being determined d not to deliver any powder that is likely to be used by the Germans.
 In a letter printed to-day Heynan denies that he received no remuner- ation to himself for the delivery of ammunition to the Mexican govern ment when Huerta was at it's head, and that any such deliveries were for his company, in the ordinary course of business.
 The future Of the Bridgeport Pro- jectiIe Company, in case it is shut of from supply of s1Ifokeless powder will have to be modified, according to the view on munition experts here.
 But it will not prevent the company from making the shells, which may be loaded elsewhere. N
 The. exposures will not. have, it is said, an 7ir1d1stria1 effect. on the com pany beyond the difficulties created if the supply of powder is cut off.
 The company has the legal right to organize, to make munitions and to sell them to Germany, President Will position of this country to be that it's markets are open to all the bel1igerents on equal terms.
 William M. Strawn, 1868 Park ave- nue, general manager of the Ameri- can-British Manufacturing Company, who is construction engineer for the Projectile Company, declined to dis cuss the affairs of either company, to- day.
 Robert H. Newman, of this city, also declined to talk. He is one of the construction engineers.
 Walter H. Knight, president of the ProjectiIe Company, is fairly well known in Bridgeport. He is con- nected with the Hoad1ey- Knight Coal Mining Company, of New York, which occupies offices with the American & British Mfg. Co
