THE TRAGEDY OF A GERMAN
DOLL MAKER IN BATTLE

In the September Woman's Home
Companion appears wonderful
story entitled Truce for Day II is
a story Of a German soldier and an
English soldier who met between the
trenches and had a remarkable and
friendly conversation. Some Of the
remarkable and thrilling things OF
this conversation are revealed in
the following extract. The German
begins the conversation, and Middle
ton is the name of the English SOL
der whom he addresses:
"Happiness All my life has 1t
been my-my f-faith-religion
| spend my life trying to make little
dolls to appear alive, and now am I
perhaps ending 1t by killing human
beings for whom my heart bleeds,
fathers, husbands, sons-I, who can
not bear suffering in the smallest liv-
ing creature!"
"Dolls? said Middleton thoughtful
ly. Your name-surely you can't be
the Sluss doll man?
"Schloss. But yes, yes! You know
them?
"Know them! Why, man, my baby
couldn't sleep IL she went to bed
without her Sluss doll Slusskins she
calls It. They're inseparable. You!
Well! No? Middleton stared at him
wideeyed The German nodded half
bashfully and gave a boyish, delight
ed little laugh.
"How the deuce do you get 'em
so natural? They're not dolls. they're
alive. I've held that one out and
looked at 1t, and-the expression on
'em, man, how dii you ever manage
that? You! Fancy! If my baby knew
I'd been trying all morning to shoot
the man that made her Sluss doll
Slusskins, she calls 1t, tell you, and
it's with her all day and in her little
arms at night. Why, If you coulC
only see her holding 1t and looking
at It with her mothers eyes!"

French Women Do
Not Favor Peace
Say War Must Continue Until Ger
many 10 Defeated
BY William Philip simms

How long will the women of France
let this war go on?
Suddenly and without warning, l
put this question to the wife Of
French soldier. l deliberately sur.
prised the lady with the question
when she was most downhearted.
Her husband had just been ordered
into the front trenches at one of the
hottest parts Of the long line, north
Of Arras; yet her answer was imme-
date and unhesitating:
Until the Germans are beaten!"
Her voice was low, yet II seemed
to fill the air, like doom pronouncing
judgment.
But your husband" insisted.
Wouldn't you like to have your hus-
band with you now?"
NO." she said quickly; "the Ger.
mans are still in France"
80 you are satisfied that he shall
remain where he is?"
He must remain until the Ger
mans are beaten. | would not have
him back before that, even If could"
And she is an average French wo-
man.
relate these facts because the
women Of France have always exer-
cised great influence in the country's
history and because one often hears
the remark:
"The government and the army
may be willing to continue a long
drawnout war, and they may be per-
fectly able to do so from the point
Of view Of men and money. But what
about the women
The women of France have them
selves under sort OF self imposed
discipline no less rigid than that
which the men folks are subject to
at the front. They are part OF the
union sacre, just as much as the men
and they will see the war through.
And 1t was largely due to the wom-
en- Of the land that the French have
been able to accomplish what they
have.

UncOnlpromiisiing
Positively Refuses to Enter Into AIRY
Peace confersnce With His
Opponents

Washington, Aug. PIPES dent
Woodrow Wilson on his return from
Cornish, N. H., today was given a
comprehensive account Of the Next
can situation in all its phases by
Secretary of State Robert Lansing.
The secretary told the president that
official reports indicated that the sit
uation in the vicinity of Brownsville
was of q local character and that
quiet prevailed at Vera Cruz where
there had been some antiforeign DEM
onstrations. He outlined in detail the
discussion Of peace plans at the New
York conference yesterday of the Am
erican diplomats. \
Neither the president nor secretary
was inclined to view the situation as
requiring any further precautionary
measures than have been taken in
sending battleships to Mexican wa
tiers and more federal troops to the
Texas border. They devoted most Of
their time to a discussion OF the In
terAmerican plan on which they are
pinning their hopes for early restor.
alton Of peace in Mexico.
The appeal to all factions has not
been sent, although signed by Sec
rotary Lansing and the ambassadors
and ministers of the six Central and
South American government partici
patton in the conference. 4 list Of
chiefs, generals and governors is be
ing compiled and as soon rs the 10
cations of all are determined the ap
peal will be telegraphed simultane
ously to every part of Mexico.

On the eve of this action came Nths
announcement from the Villa agenc,
here tonight that Carranza had fatl,
refused to enter into any peace con
ference and would treat with his op
ponents only on terms Of uncondi

Villa, gave out letters which hav'
passed between him and Elizo Are

here. Llorente began the correspond

Llorente promptly telegraphed VIII
la and was instructed to begin dis
cussion of peace terms. Arredondo
replied that he would refer the mat
ter to Carranza, whose response to-
day came in the form Of instructions
to Arredondo not to enter into nego-

declared tonight that Mr.. Douglass
statement was made several weeks
after this incident was alleged to have
occurred.
Villa CompIacent
incidentally Secy. Lansing revealed
during the day that Villa recently had
informed the state department that
he was willing to sign an armistice
for three months or longer, during
which a peace conference might be
held. Llorente confirmed this inform.
alton and added that Felipe Angeles
was now in conference with Villa at
Chihuahua relative to details Of such
an armistice. He pointed to this
meeting as an evidence Of harmony
in the Villa ranks.
Indications are that the Villa and
Zapata elements are preparing to
receive favorably the appeal Of the
United States and the Latin Ameri-
can governments. They already are
planning peace conference.
Officials Of the United States gov
eminent hope that many generals re-
ported to be partisans of Carranza ul-
timately will give their adherence to
a peace conference. To Offset this
impression, the Carranza agency here
today gave out a list of generals in.
GLIDING Obregon and Gonzales who
were reported to have telegraphed
expressions of loyalty to Carranza.
The appeal signed by the American
diplomats in New York yesterday is
addressed to all the leaders, gener
ais and governors in Mexico and will
be made public IN day or two. Car
ranza's displeasure over the efforts OF
the latin-American countries, In con
junction with the United States, does
not alter the feeling of optimism
among officials and diplomats, who
declare unwarranted the interference
that any attempt is to be made to
invade Mexico's sovereignty.

Another Bridgeport Murder.

The finding of the torso of woman with the right arm attached, by laborers engaged in excavating in lot on Sea view avenue ill Bridgeport, Monday, has given the police what they believe is murder mystery. The head, left arm and. thighs of the body have not been found.
 The discovery was made near the eastern shore of Yellow Mill Pond, south of the plant of the City Ice & Coal Company. Buried at depth of five feet, the body was brought to light through the action of a huge steam shovel, used in excavation work. Promptly the police and coroner began an investigation, with the result that they concurred in the belief that mur- der had been done.
 Medical Examiner Garlick said that examination of the torso convinced him that the woman was in a normal con- dition when death over took her. The head, arms, and both legs had been sawed off, close to the body. The medical examiner inclines to the belief that the body has been buried about ten months. The woman was of ordin- ary stature, and probably about 30 years of age.

Revival of Interest Shown at the
 Smoker Thursday Night.

Gratifying interest was shO VII at the last meeting of the Canaan Business Mems Association, Thursday evening, which was we'll attended although only routine business was transacted The matter of eudeavOring to persua le prop crtv owners to build more sidewalks in front of their premises i'll the pInre i'm pOrtunt thoroug ghfarts, was brought up. but no definite cnurSn was suggested. It was recognized that the sidewalk question is mainly matter of private concern and must depend upon the owners sense of pride ill the appearance of his property and his ability and will ingness to keep up with the march Oi local progress.
 Secretary N. Watson Hardenbergh repote for the b, Il ,uet con mittee, that I32 tickets had been sold for tue ladies night and supper of a frw weeks ago and that the affair was gratifying and enjoyable success. He reported also that tiIe committees were ready to cooperate with the firemen of Canaan Hose Company ill the forthcoming tournament and muster, July ,, when the firemen should signify the co-operaf tion they required.
 Messrs. Fred Brewer, Allyn Fuller and Freeman Dempsey, representing the firemen, told of the plans for the tournament, and from the information given it appears that the boys anticipate that presentations must be made to en- certain something over ,, ,0G0 visitors on July 5, for which an elaborate program of "events" is being arranged by the firemen's committee. In this work they must lave the loyal backing and help of not only the B. NJ. A. hut the whole community who should have a patriotic pride in making the affair a big success. The Association stands in readiness to do its share, and there is no question of the loyal cooperation of the townspeople.
 The matter of reorganization and membership in the Association was fully discussed, and plams for the cam. paign for minimum of 100 member Tairly launched. It is the desire of tho members to get the Association on a solid foundation and secure paying membership sufficient to warrant moro ambitious undertakings than they have yet assumed, and as tie question of membership is the first important step. the committee, consisting of Messrs, Wright, Ford and Dempsey were in structed to district the town and assign sub committees to thoroughly canvass the territory for desirable members. Already an encouraging start has been made and there is the fullest confidence that the list will easily be brought up to the requisite One Hundred and more. It is probable that the matter of chang ing tue name of the organization to the Canaan Chamber of Commerce will be brought up, at an early date, to con- form to the name and scope of the state organiza tion.

 President W. w. Bierce. of Torring ton, called the meeting to order at Il O clock, and the minutes of the previous meeting were read by the secretary, Dr. F. H. Lee, of Canaan.
 Doctors Elias Pratt, of TorringtOu. and J. H. Kane, of Thomaston, were elected members or the association. a President Bierce spoke informally of the purposes of the association and the duties of the health officers. It is up tO the local health officers, he said, to see that the health laws are not violated. "We do not want to use the big stick, said President Bierce, but if it is necessary to resort to stern measures it cannot be helped. The health officers have all power under the law. He announced that the subject of rural sanitation would be discussed by the members present, and introduced Dep uty Dairy Commissioner Holt, who spoke interestingly on the condition i'll the dairy department and the need of improvement ill the milk supply of the state. answering a number of questions by members, at the close of his talk. The discussion was participated in by Doctors Pratt, Barker, How'd and others.
 The matter of school sanitation was brought up by Dr. Barker, who thought the state health board should have stricter rules regarding the drinking facilities in the schools. h some schools where individual drinking cups are used, he said, the water is dippe from pail or other receptacle, prac- tice which nullified the advantage of the individual cups. In some schools an ordinary pail and common dipper are still in use.
 The subject of school privies elicited considerable discussion, as a result of which 1t was voted to adopt a motion by Dr. Pratt, that committee of two be appointed, to act, with the president to suggest a uniform plan of sanitory privy fer the schools of Litchfield county.

Flag Day June "a.

Governor Holcomb has issued his proclamation for Flag Day. as follows:
 Tn accordance with the provisions of the statutes, I hereby designate Mon. day, June the fourteenth us Flag Day. Not for what it is, brt because 1t sym bolizes all that this country has been is, and hopes to be, the flag demands of us homage and reverance. Across the seas, men, women even children, arc offering for their countries n bitter sacrifice sof suffering. Yet no nation has behind it a nobler heritage of deyo- ton in time of war and of higher en- deavor in time of peace than has ours, none has the right to stand more proudly among it's fellows, none holds fairer promise for the future, for it's own and other peoples, In peculiar degree at this time all citizens ought to bear these things in mind. Therefore, ask that this Flag Day be oberved in all schools by proper exercises, in theaters and elsewhere where people congregate, by the playing of the na- tional anthem or otherwise, and by general display of the Aug upon public and private buildings.
