Situation Grave,
 Venizelos Asserts

London, Sept. 2-Former Premier Venizelos, of Greece, leader of the party which favors participation in the war with the entente allies, is quoted in a despatch to the Star, from Athens, as having said to friends that the situation was becoming more and more grave for Greece.
 M. Venizelos blamed those who had advance Knowledge of Rumania's in- tentions for not bringing about the in- tervc1tion oe Greece, at least smul- taneously with Rumania. The Stars correspondent quotes him further as follows:
 With the Bulgarian troops between the Rumanians and the armies of the entente allies with the Russians ad- vancing through Dobruja, who can doubt that Bulgaria will seek to sign a separate peace with the entente If this should happen before Greece goes in on the side of the entente it would mean the burial of Greece"
 The correspondent adds that the idea of a separate peace for Bulgaria is opposed by many of the belligerent states.

DRAINAGE DISPUTE IN STAMFORD GOES
 BEFORE CIVIC BODY
Gus Johnson and M. c. Meagher Still Unable to
 Effect Settlement.
Especial to The Farmer)

Sfatford, Sept. =.-A legal battle will shortly take place between Gus Johnson of Broadbridge road and M. c. Meagher & Co.,, real estate dealers, Bridgeport, if their differences as to who shall drain the land claimed by the former are not patched up. MT. Johnson and the real estate dealer own large tracts of land on Broad bridge road. Both properties adjoin each other. The ground is very marshy in that section
 Sometime ago both owners had number of conflicts as to who should drain the land. MT. Johnson alleged that it was a natural water course and all the expense attached should be borne by Meagher. The latter stern ly objected and told MT. Johnson that he would not drain someone else's land, but would willingly cooperate with his neighbor to remedy condi- tions. Refusing to consider that proposition MT. Johnson took the mat ter up with the selectmen.
 The Stratford fathers visited the property and decided that it was a per action. Later, Health Officer George sonal matter and refused to take any F. Lewis was called and he pronounced it a natural water course. Dr. Lewis said that all damages should be paid by MT. Meagher. The real estate deal CT claimed that he had already spent several hundred dollars draining his own property and saw no reason why he should pay for drainage of his neighbor. MT. Johnson alleged that the property in it's present condition is unsuitable for tillage.
 Unable to gain any satisfaction after the health officer had given his deci- sion, Mr. Johnson, who is a member of the Stratford Improvement club, placed the proposition before them at a re- cent meeting. John Albright, presi- dent of the club asked all parties in volved to be present at a public meet ing of the club in order to settle the question. The meeting was held We'd nesday evening at the club rooms, Nichols avenue. Both men were heard and no agreement was reached. MT. Meagher told the club that he was only too willing to share half the expense for drainage. MT. Johnson told the club that he would not pay one cent or would he cooperate in any way with the real estate man in order to have the matter settled. The club did not take vote as they deemed 1t to be a personal matter.
 MT. and Mrs. Huntington Tomlinson of Oronoque are rejoicing over the ar rival of baby girl who came to glad en the home Thursday evening.

Helping Stumbling
 Stranger Bell Street
 Resident Loses Cash

Grabbing hold of James Harper of 97 Bell street last midnight on the Stratford avenue bridge to prevent himself from falling after apparently stumbling, an unknown man who had asked Harper for a match picked Harper's pocket and obtained $16. He furnished the police with a descrip- tion of the man and they are seeking him.
 Harper told the police when he made the complaint about 12:30 a. m. that he was crossing the bridge when the stranger asked for a match. As Harper reached for the match, the man bumped him and managed to get the money. Harper did not pay any attention to the others actions until shortly after when he felt for the money and it was missing.
