others whose business or profession

those who have brought on indigest-
ion through irregular eating, worry,
or other causes, have found relief in
this reliable remedy.

sold in a metal box especially design
ed for convenience in carrying the
medicine in the pocket or purse. 1t

and should help any case, no matter
of how long n standing. This rene
dy has been so uniformly successful

CATCH SUMNER CAMP THIEVES
officers Secure Three Men Accused
of Plundering Cottages.

Deputy Sheriff ]. d. Purdy of Man.
chester was in Bennington yesterday
afternoon on business connected
with the apprehension of three men
captured on Dandy mountain We'd
nesday morning who confessed later
TO punderng summer cottages in
bennington and Rutland counties.
The men captured were Frank
Lambert, George Towne and Volney
Squires who have been living at the
Dandy town farm For some time
Bennington and Rutland county peo-
pie have complained that thieves had
been breaking into the mountain cot
tages in isolated regions and carry
ing off bedding, utensils and other
summer camping paraphernalia. With
the robbery of the Smith cottage at
Tinmouth pond in Danby last week
the officers became busy and ran
down Lambert who was believed to
have some Of the stolen property in
his possession Deputy Sheriff Pur-
dy went to the Danby town farm and
found Lambert missing He was lat
er discovered to have spent the night
at Edward Madson's home on Dandy
mountain Having heard that Of
iicers were after him he started
across country afoot. Sheriff Purdy
called on Deputy Sheriff Norcross of
Dorset and the two men succeeded in
capturing Lambert after a chase
through the woods
On the return, on clever cross-eX-
animation by the officers, Lambert
abandoned his first declaration of in
nocenoe and admitted he not only
had robbed several cottages in the
northern part of the county, but had
two accomplices, Towne and Squires.
These men were later taken into GUS
tody by Deputy Norcross and lodged
in the Rutland county Jail pending a
hearing

HAS a SILVER JAW
Napolean Larin, Formerly of Benning
ton, Wounded in France

Mrs. Margaret Larin, who lives on
Park street, has received a letter
from her son Napolean stating that
he has so far recovered from his
wound while fighting with the British
army in France that he expects TO be
in Bennington with his people on
Christmas
The Larin family were originally
Canadians and several of the sons
have been members of the Canadian
militia. Napolean enlisted at Hamilt-
on, p, G., little over year ago with
the Dufferin Rifles. Upon the arrival
of the Canadians in England the or
iginal militia organizations were
broken up in the formation of battal-
ions and lost their Identities.
The letters received by Mrs. Larin
all show evidence of having been
through the hands of the censor and
the writer states that the soldiers are
given explicit instructions as what
they may and may not write. They
are not allowed to give any informa-
ton about where they are stationed
or to the dates of any happenings.
In addition to the letters Mrs Lar
in has just received photograph of
a group of conyalescing soldiers. Her
son Napolean is one Of the group
While fighting in the trenches he was
hit on the right side of the face by a
piece of shrapnel and his lower jaw
was torn away A silver jaw has
been put in place by the surgeons
and the son writes that his condition
is excellent
Larin was wounded in one of the
trenches. The defense of the allies
and the Germans had been pushed so
close TO each other that the two ar
mics had been firing back and forth
at each other every time Hans or
Tommy showed any part OF his anat-
omy at the top OF the trench wall.
Larin was endeavoring to obtain a
shot at a German sniper who had
been proving himself good marks
man when shrapnel shell exploded
in front of the British trench and one
of the flying fragments hit his face.
The picture received by Mrs. Larin
was evidently taken in one of the
many private homes in England that
have been converted into hospitals.
There are ten soldiers and two nurs-
es in the group. Larin and one other
soldier are the only ones who APP
pear to have suffered any serious in
jury.
The wound which has ended Lar
ms career as a soldier is the fourth
he has received during the war. He
has been shot through the calf of the
leg and received two other slight
wounds.
Larin. who was for some time en-
ployed at the mill OF Holden, Leonard
in this village, returned to
Canada about two years ago.

BRITAIN WILL CEDE
CYPRUS TO BUY
AID OF GREECE
Offers Island for Assistance
Against TeutOns and BuIgars
ALLIES MAY USE PRESSURE
Report from Rome Says Greece viii
Be Asked to Define Her
Her Position.

London, Oct. 21-Great Britain has
made a formal offer of the island of
Cyprus to Greece, as soon as Greece
undertakes to intervene in the war
on the side of the allies. The London
Daily Telegraph makes this announce
ment this morning. "Thus tar,' says
the Daily Telegraph, Greece has not
replied to the offer of Cyprus. Our
Athens correspondent informs US
that it is believed the offer will
create an excellent impression in
Greece, since it is an actual present
concession and not promise, which
Germany might suggest and would
never be carried out"
A Rome dispatch to the London
Daily Mail gives the report that the
entente allies will send an ultimat-
um to Greece, insisting that she de-
fine her position.
The Daily Telegraph in an editorial
claims that its report is based on
good authority The newspaper
points out that the offer differs from
the German offers TO Greece, mas
much as it is not contingent upon
the final triumph of the triple entente
but would take effect as soon as
Greece performed her part in the sug
gested agreement
The sooner we all recognize that
purely chiyalrous motives are not
prominent in the Balkan politics Of
today, the better" the Daily Tele-
graph adds. "The cession of Cyprus
to the state to which the most of it's
inhabitants are related by race and
history clearly involves no depart
ure from the principles upon which
We have taken our stand from the
beginning, and it comes with espec-
tally happy effect from the power to
which Greece owes her possession of
the Ionian islands,"
Cyprus is the third largest island in
the Mediterranean, go miles from the
coats OF Asia Minor. 1t was admin
istered until November ., 1914, by
Great Britain under a convention
concluded with the sultan of Turkey
at Constantinople in 1873, but on the
outbreak of hostilities with Turkey
on the former date the island was an
nexed. The high commissioner, Maj.
Sir J L. Clauson, is assisted by an
executive council. Cyprus has an
area OF 1854 square miles and a pop
ulation of nearly 100000.

BULGARIANS TAKE
ANOTHER TOWN
IN SERBIA
Drive Out Inhabitants Who Seek
Refuge in Rumania
FRENCH FORCE NEARING SAL0NIKl
Austrians Believed to Be Planning
to Help BulgarS in Attack on
Nish.

Paris, Oct 21-The Bulgarians
have occupied the town of Raduietaz
in Serbia and the inhabitants are
seeking refuge in Rumania.
London. Oct 21-'rhe entente allies
are marking time, pending the con-
centration at Solonica OF a sufficient
number of troops for their operations
in the Balkans. A large French force
lis on the way to Salonica, French
forces have succeeded thus far in
protecting the lower end Of the Nish-
Salonica railway.
The capital of Seryia has been
transferred from Nish to Prizrend in
western Servia, close to the Albanian
frontier. The banks and most of the
legations are being removed to Priz-
rend. The Russian counul at Saloni-
ca has sent an automobile to take the
Russian minister to Seryia to that
city, but owing to the muddy condi-
tion of the roads, it is doubtful wheth
er this effort will succeed.
The Austro-German expedition is
composed OF mixed forces of about II
divisions. The Austrians have adj
yanced well up the Moraya valley
and are endeavorin gto effect juno
tion with the Bulgarians who are
making an attack north of the Nish-
zajecar sector, Army officers in Sal
onica, believe the combined armies
when junction has been affected,
will not be satisfied with opening a
route across northeastern Seryia, but
win attack Nish Another serious at
tack also is under way by the Bulgar-
ians, with Uskup as its objective 1t
is admitted that this force has occu-
pied Istip.

MIL|TIAMEN n HELD
FOR STRIKE DUTY
INSCHENECTADY
Signal from Fire Alarm Will Sum-
mon Amsterdam Company
MAYOR PLEADS WITH STRIKERS
lmplores Union Leaders to Preserve
Order and Keep Soldiers Out
of the City.

Albany, Oct. 21-State militiamen
are being held in readiness for strike
duty in Schenectady where 1900
| employees of the General Electric
company have been out for more
than two weeks in a campaign for an
eight-hour day and twenty per cent
increase in wages. 1t is reported
that the adjutant general unoilicially
suggested that certain companies be
prepared to move, if needed. The re-
port has caused intense bitterness in
Schenectady.
III" company men of Amsterdam
has received orders to report for duty
at a signal which will be sounded by
the fire alarm The men are under
command of Captain Greene. Other
companies, in neighboring cities, it
is believed have been given similar
orders
Colonel James NJ. Andrews of
Schenectady, commanding the second
infantry, would not say what steps
had been taken to mobilize the mil
itia He stated that in case any aid
was found necessary it would be
promptly forthcoming.
Hundreds of employees desiring to
return to work were in a throng
which congregated in the vicinity OF
the main gate of the company's plant
yesterday morning. A large force of
policemen. assisted by deputies and
strike leaders. quelled every disturb
ance before it amounted to a riot.
but instances of rough tactics were
reported, though they were not Sc
rious enough to lead to any arrests.
Few employees returned to work.
The crisis was reached at Z o'clock
yesterday morning, the time fixed by
the company for the acceptance of
its compromise proposition. The sue
cess of the strikers yesterday in keep
ing the men and women from return
ing to work was looked upon as a vic
tory.
Mayor Schoolcraft was assured by
subcommittee from the Metal
Trades alliance that the committee di-
reGting the striking men would do
everything possible to maintain or
der at the gates of the General Elec-
tic company. The committeeman
themselves pledged their word to the
mayor that they would be present in
person at the gates this morning to
direct the picketing in an orderly and
lawful manner This report followed
a meeting of the Metal Trades al
lance directly after conference
with city officials.
The conference between the city
officials and members OF the Metal
Trades alliance took place at noon in
the Office of the mayor. Mayor School
craft told the committeeman that
demand had been made upon him,
earlier in the day, by officials of the
company, for protection. He pleaded
with the men to use their influence
with the strikers so that there would
be no need or excuse for calling upon
the state militia.
MY God, men We don't want
soldiers here said the mayor
Labor leaders praised the mayor
for the position he had taken in re-
gard to the use of militia. James T..
Murray, business agent of the machin
lists, said the men would do every
thing in their power to prove that the
mayors confidence in the men was
not without reason.
