SUBSTITUTE for Poker Chips.

The use of small. round oyster
crackers is advisable as a substitute
for poker chips, as they are easily de-
voured and the crime hidden, should
the police raid the place. Cards alone
are no indication that poker domi-
mates therein. 1t requires chips to
furnish that evidence. If z banker is

Big Entertainment New Years Eve
 at Elk's Club.


 The house committee under whose direction the annual cabs/Gt enter tainment of New Britain lodge of Elks will be held on New Years eve held meeting last evening and prac- tically completed arrangements for holding one of the most successful social entertainments ever undertaken by the lodge. Talent from New York is now being communicated with, and it is proposed to have a selected cast from the Sporting Widows company, which will be at the Grand theater Hartford, during that week come to this city at the conclusion of tho regular performance. The committee is having postal cards arranged so that the members of the lodge may write for reservations, and it is to be understood that after a member has applied for his tickets no change will be made
 The arrangem ents for the annual Christmas tree celebration were also discussed, and the committee is re- ceiving excellent reports daily of the returns for solicitation of contribu- tions. The event this year is to eclipse any previous attempt, accord ing to those in charge, and early in dications further strengthen the com mittee's belief that this will be ac- com plished

He said he might later ask congress for an appropria- tion to defray the expenses of such work.
 May Give Another Address.
 The president told the members he might address them again later on commercial conditions about which much legislation has been passed, and which are likely to change rapldly after the war when the nations of Europe again take up their task of commerce and industry The most that can be done now, he said, IS to make sure that the necessary instru- mentalities are at hand for securing adequate information
 Regarding the railroads, the pres1- dent said there had been reason to fear that they could not cope much longer with the transportation prob lem, and suggested it would be W1se to provide for a commission Of ln- Guiry to ascertain whether the laws as at present framed and administered were as serviceable as they might be in the solution of the problem. He said that the regulation of the rail- l roads by federal commission has had admirable results and that the ques- tion was whether there was anything else to be done to better the con- ditions under which the railroads are | operating.

First Direct Word.

The above despatch is the first direct word to be received from Berlin in regard to the probab ble action of the German government in response to the request of the United States for the recall of the two attaches. Since Germany already has asked Washing ton for information as to the grounds on which the United States bases it's request for a recall, it would appear that this fact had not been made pub lie in Berlin up to the time of the filing of the despatch.

 No Serious Breaks.
 The president said there was reason to hope that no question in controversy between this and other governments would lead to any serious breach of amicable relations, and that he was sorry to say that the gravest threats against national peace and safety had been uttered within the countrys own borders.
 There are citizens of the United States, I blush to admit" he declared, born under other flags but welcomed under our generous naturalization laws to the full freedom and oppor- tunity of America, who have poured the poison of disloyalty into the very arteries of our national life; who , have sought to bring the authority and good name of our government into 1 contempt, to destroy our industries
 
 their vindictive purposes, to strike at them and to debase our politics to the 1 uses of foreign intrigue.''
 Mush Be Crushed Out. No federal laws exist to meet this 1 situation, said MT. Wilson, because | such thing would have seemed in l credible in the past. "Such creatures of passion, disloyalty and anarchy" he 1 added, must be crushed out. They are not many but they are infinitely malignant and the hand of our power 1 should close over them at once." l Turning again to military ques- tions, the president said he might find 1 it advisable to call into systematic ] consultation with the directing officers l of the army and navy, men of recog- rized ability who are familiar, for l example, with the transportation facilities of the country and therefore

the local agent.
He says that sales are especially

account of the danger from the slippery
pavements.
Il am not surprised at the hit the
Fairfield Six made in Phoenix, for it
made hits every place it was shown 1t
will be one of our biggest sellers.
The Paige is not going in for rae
ing. Since we won second and third in
we have been asked why not build some
fast speedway cars. But we are con-
tent with the record of good road rae
ing averages, for it is better to prove
by test that stock car is good on the
roads than to show that a specially
built racer excells on a track or speed
way. Look for our entries next fall"
The Paige factory has a very inter-
esting exhibit at the fair, and it is do
ing them good. The factory is work.
ing day and night to fill orders. 1t is
one of the three factories in the United

Hageman was specially glad to see
Croft. for the factory man told him a
lot of things about the Paige he never

and proceeded TO swap yards and yards

FIVE ARE BOUND OVER
TO SUPERIOR COURT
Alleged Bootleggers Are Held Over
to Answer for Their Transac-
tons in Superior Court

No incidents of Importance were
recorded yesterday in the battle be-
tween the officers of the county and
city and the demon rum. No ar
rests were made; all the warrants
that had previously been prepared,
have been served. and it just re-
mains now for some unwary boot
logger to stick his head up out of
his hole. and have it nipped off by
the minions of the law. The detec-
tives who have been busy with such
good results in the liquor cases, are
still on the job, and results are mo-
mentarily expected.
John Lee, Mary Lee, Geo Mullen
and Mr.. and Mrs. Billy Gamble, who
on their arraignment had pleaded not
guilty, were given their trial in the
justice courts yesterday. They were
all bound over to the superior court
and bail was fixed at $500 in each
case.
Henry Rosenstein, who previous to
his arrest had been a clothing mer-
chant on East Washington street,
yesterday succeeded in obtaining his
liberty. At the time of his arrest he
was held in Jail unable to obtain
bondsmen. He succeeded finally af-
ter some delay in being released on
bail. After a short period of liberty.
he was again returned to jail his
bondsmen deciding not to take the
risk. He then remembered that he
had 5000 in cash in a safety deposit
vault in a bank in Prescott and sent
his son to get it. Yesterday he was
again admitted to bail, the six hun
dred in cash being the security
