Clara Blandick, an American actress, has the distinction of being the only American stage artlste to be born in the Flowery Kingdom. Miss Blandick is the daughter of Maine parents, who were engaged in rowing the seas. and it was in the harbor of Hong Kong
 that she was born. It is significant that many of the best parts played by Ter on the stage were Oriental in char deter. Her Madame Butterfly was one of the most interesting and attraC- tive. She has won high distinction as a dramatic actress, a comedienne and a portrayer of classical roles. For two
 seasons past she has added to the gaiety of nations by supporting the rotound and jovial May Irwin in her new and revived comedies.

FRANKFORT. Germany.-A surgeon
whose work is almost exclusively

medical world Of Europe new wrin-
kle in the speedy and handy healing
of dangerous wounds especially when
in the field and far from hospitals. The
means consists simply of applying to
the wound a thick coating of ashes.
preferably made by burning cotton or
wool cloth-and then binding it up
with the bandage which every soldier
carries. The ashes seem to draw the
pain from the wound, and to act GU

Of time. The method Is particularly
effective in saber and ibayonet wounds.

WILCOX TURNS DOWN
 CITIZENS COMMITTEE
International Silver Co. Head Refuses to Prepare Statement of Conces-
 siOns to End Strike.

Meriden, Dec. 3.-President Geo. H. Wilcox of the International Silver company today declined a request from committee of citizens asking him to prepare a statement of what concessions the company would make towards ending the strike of the sil- yer workers, which is now in it's eighth week.
 This committee was appointed at a meeting of citizens last night. Today the committee asked MT. Wilcox for a signed proposition of concessions. MT. Wilcox said that the terms offered by the company already, were the best it could do. There terms were a 55 hour week, 10 per cent increase in wages and minimum wage of 12 F cents an hour for women, all to be effective January 1.
 About 5000 workers here, 1000 in Wallingford and a lesser number in Waterbury are involved.

TIRE COMPANY WILL
 LOCATE ELSEWHERE
Sponsor Believes 1t is Not Appreciated in This
 City.

The Monarch Stitched Tire com- pany, which had an option on the Munroe, Eastwood Pen Co.,, factory in Seymour Park, will not locate there and will forfeit the $7OO paid to se- cure the option, according to Lucins company. MT. Kendall made this announcement to @ Herald man this morning, but declined to be interview ed further on the matter, beyond de- claring that the concern would locace elsewhere, in some place where it would be appreciated. MT. Kendall was apparently in al irate frame of mind and was bitter over what he appeared to regard as the hostile or indifferent attitude of New Britain people towards the pro- ject. He seemed especially peeved over an article which recently ap- peared in the newspapers in regard to the company and it's failure to To-
 cate here as anticipated. .@.s &s.
 Tn the absence of a definite state
 ment, which MT. Kendall declined
 to give, it is thought that the failure
 of local capitalists to subscribe to
 stock is largely responsible for the decision to locate elsewhere. New Britain men were favorably impress ed with samples of the companys product exhibited here and expressed the opinion that it would prove a money maker, but with all it has been difficult to interest people II new projects during recent months, owing to the fact that those who have money have found it their ad- vantage to invest in war stocks"
 According to a statement made by an official of the Munroe, Eastman Pen Co.,, this firm agreed to sell it's factory to the Monarch Stitched Tire company, giving a thirty day option. The lated firm paid $70O, but did not make good on it's option, which ex- pired some time ago. However, as previously stated there was no dis position upon the part of the pen company to enforce the terms of the option as it was recognized that the tire company had a good proposition and apparently only needed time to make good. The statement that the deal is off and that the tire company will forfeit it's partial payment comes as a surprise to all concerned

 By M. F.. Taylor.

A branch of the American Pm company of Waterbury is to be opened in this city on Monday, December l6, by M E. Taylor of South Main street.

Taylor's store at 351 South Main street for the pres ent and will employ about twenty five female hands at first Later, if the business warrants it, the number of employees will be increased to 100.
 MT. Taylor was employed by the company for twenty-three years as manager of it's hook and eye shop, which was located in Berlin until three years ago, when the concern closed that branch and moved the machines to the Brass City. Since then MT. Taylor has conducted a grocery store on South Main street
 The local branch will manufacture safety pins, getting the raw wire from Waterbury and stamping out the pins with machines constructed for that purpose. When the pins are finished they will be affixed to cards and placed on the market.

Action Taken Against Captains
 Boy-Ed and Yon Papen
STATIONED AT WASHINGTON
Affair Result of "Objectionable .Ac- tiyjtics in Connection With Mill itary and Naval Matters" Says State Department.

Washington. Dec. 3.-The state de- partment announced formally late today that it had asked for the recall of Captain Boy-Ed and Captain Won Papen, naval and military attaches, respectively of the German embassy here, because of the objectionable activities in connection with military and naval matters"
 Secretary Lansing is understood to have informed Count Won Bernstorff, the German ambassador, that Captain Boy-Ed, naval attache to the German embassy has rendered himself persona non grata to the United States gov ernment as the result of his connec- tion with the conspirators of the Hamburg line who yester- day were found guilty in New York.
 Discussed at Cabinet.
 The subject was understood to have been the subject of discussion at the cabinet meeting today. Secretary Lansing at the end of the cabinet meeting f1atly refused to answer any questions on the subject, and other members of the cabinet were equally silent. The German embassy also refused to talk about it.
 The state department was believed to be of the opinion that as Captain Boy-End had admitted his connection with the financing of the operations which the New York jury gave ver- dict as being illegal, there was noth- ing else to do but inform the German government of it's views.
 Germany5s Turn to Act.
 By informing the Am mbassador that the attache is persona non grata, the United States leave it with the Ger man government as to the manner in which Captain Boy-Ed shall termin- = ate his connection with the embassy Thisi is the usual dip't matic proceed ure in the case of an attache of an embassy or a legation whom the United States finds objectionable.

 His name and nationality prompted
 the British officials to act cautiously
 and he was finally required to prove his representations and was given choice of being deported to Germany
 or America, in the event of proving
 his declarations. He has decided to return to New Britain as soon as he l can obtain his release.
 The effort of the British at first to
 press him into military service re- suited in his arrest. At that time MT. krleger was a government contract
 or In Nairobi under obligation to provide game and meat for use in the service and it was then thought he was British subject and liable to military service and it was then thought he was a British subject and liable to military service As he had no desire to take part in the fighting which was going on between the Brit ish and Germans in the East African colonies he disclosed the fact that he was not d subject. Although claim ing the United States as his home. to which he came when he was only eight years old, he was forced to ad- init that he had never become a citi- zen. t:-
 MT. Krieger was first arrested in July and held for few hours until ms identity was esta blished but later ne was again placed in custody under the defense of the realm act and from Africa was sent to a military deten- tlon camp in India. Being over age he was transferred to a civilian camp and at present is allowed full liberty. except that must eat. sleep and report daily in camp. He is permitted to travel about the country, visit churches and engage in such mission ary work as falls in his way. It is planned to send all the ministers and missionaries from the country so his family has. reason to expect his re- turn as soon as proper credentials are forwarded and approved.
