PRESIDENT HADLEY
 COMES TO FUNERAL
Yale Faculty Also Represented at Funeral of Rev. Dr. J. w. Cooper
 Held This AfternoOn

With simple services such as he would prefer, the funeral of Rev. pr. James Wesley Cooper, who died sud- denly in New York early Thursday morning, was held from the chapel of the South Congregational church at 2:3O o'clock this afternoon. The ser vices at the chapel were proceeded by prayers at the home of his son, Elisha Cooper, at 1:45 o'clock.
 The funeral of pr. Cooper was largely attended by his former par ishioners and friends and also by representative gathering of the clergy from various cities about the state. President Arthur T. Hadley of Yale University and members of the Yale faculty, with whom pr. Cooper had been associated much during the past years as a member of the Yale cor poration, attended the services in a body.
 Rev. pr. George w. c. Hill, pastor of the church., conducted the services and Mrs. Arthur Brooks of Meriden sang. An unusually large and beauti- full assortment of floral tributes from this and other cities testified to the high esteem in which Dr. Cooper was held.
 The pail bearers were F.. Allen Moore, Judge John H. Kirkham, Will liam C. Hungerford, Howell Cheney E. N. Stanley and George $. Talcott' Interment was in Fairvicw cemetery.
 While it would probably be thought that because of pr. COOper'S wide ac- Quaintance the funeral services would have been held in the church. yet because the chapel had been built during his pastorate and in order to preserve as much as possible the de- sire for simplicity, the services were held in the cha

Especial to the Herald.)
 Maple Hill March 18.-On the coldest March night in the history of this settlement just as the residents had stoked their fires and were pre- pairing for a comfortable evening at home, they were startled by the con- tinuous honking of an automobile. Not a car had been seen for a week and as the roads were impossible folks thought an aeroplane or Zeppe lin had got out of it's course and was calling for aid. Rushing out of doors they were amazed to see the headlights of big automobile ap parently coming up thetrolley tracks from Robbins corner. Soon they dis covered the lights of second car and still a third.
 In a few moments the three cars reached the crest of the hill and stopped in front of Buell's store. There the drivers accompanied by nlechanicians, got out for supplies and told the story of their travels. |. They had left the Jeffery works in Boston at o'clock yesterday morn ing bound for New Haven with in structions to make their destination regardless of obstacles. As it was inn possible to follow the highways, which were blocked with snow, the cars had travelled the trolley tracks all the way from Boston and the drivers proposed to continue this route to New Haven. They were informed that three trestles would have to be crossed in reaching New Britain and that the railroad trestle was espec- iaI1y dangerous The informa ton, however, failed to disturb the daring drivers a mite. They announced they knew the course and in a few minutes left the hill for New Britain and although they experienced some wierd travelling reached the city about en hour later safe but badly shaken

Tirpitz Advocated Naval Test.

Berlin, March 17, via London, March IS, 1:2O D. m.-Germany's enemies, by not taking advantage Of the announcement of Chancellor Won -HOllweg on December 9 that Germany would consider peace proposals whenever her foes are will ting to ask terms, have lost the day of grace. This is the conclusion to be drawn from a leading article in the semi-OfficiaI Lokal Anzeiger, in which it is declared f1atly the time has now come to carry out the chancellor's warning of December that if the enemies of this country did not ask for peace in a reasonable period they would have to pay more dearly for it. The Lokal Anzeiger> r>says:
 According to everything one hears, one must be convinced that our re- sponsible statesmen, in complete agreement with the military leaders now occupy a different attitude to- ward the general situation than they occupied when the chancellor ex- pressed our readiness to enter into peace negotiations under certain con- ditions. These remarks, uttered with a feeling of power and a certain su- periority but in no manner of weak found a fanatical echo among our enemies.
 "Hence, every one has to conclude that the leading men in the enemy camp lack all vision of the attainable, all understanding of the hard, im- mutable facts which already had de- veIoped and have since that time 'Glly accumulated in greater extent. Even then the chancellor left no dOuht that, in so far as his honorable wish to avoid further senseless blood-lcttinS should prove futile, we were deter mined to double our energies in order to open the blindest of our enemies eyes"
 Urge Unlimited Submarine Campaign.
 Berlin March IS, by wireless to Sayville-The national liberal party has introduced the following measure in the Reichstag:
 "Considering that Great Britain not only makes war on the armed forces of Germany but has taken measures in order to impede the pro- viding of Germany with food sup plies and raw material, so as to compel Germany to submit through hunger, for which purpose Great Britain brutally violates international law and employees force against neu- 7 tral countries; considering further that Germany is able through un- limited and unrestrained submarine warfare to increase the British lack of tonnage so that it can be made ex- traordinariIy difficult and perhaps impossible for the British nation to obtain sufficient supplies of food and raw materials, considering that such warfare would bring more speedily a victorious end of the war, the inn . .perial chancellor is required to enter into no arrangements with other countries which would hinder us in the unlimited use of the submarine weapon, and to permit in the war zone, against the enemy's traders, with the exception of passenger ships, such use of submarines as arises from the peculiarity of said weapon x Similar bills were brought forward by the conservative and center tpartieS.
