 Vice-President Jennings is quoted as saying that the federation con- ference committee, which comprises representatives of the machinists, blacksmiths and other onions con- nected with the mechanical depart ment of the New Haven road, ex- poets to receive the result of the vote on March l. As soon as the committee is informed of the result of the vote, it will call on the of f1cials of the road, provided the vote calls for an enforcement of their demands The committee will seek conference with the management and present it's demands If they are unsuccessful in securing a conference strike may be ordered to become effective at once.
 Mir Jennings was of the opinion, however, that the officials of the company would recognize the com mittee and would confer with it as soon as it became apparent that the men were determined to urge their demands to the extent of calling a strike.

ONE WEAK SPOT
Many Norwich People Have a Weak Part and Too Often lt's the
 Back.

Many people have a weak spot.
 Too often it's a bad back.
 Twinges follow every sudden twist.
 Dull aching keeps up. day and night.
 Backache is often from weak kid neys.
 In such case kidney medicine is needed
 Doan's Kidney Pills are for weak kidneys.
 For baclxache and urinary ills.
 Norwich people recommend the rem edy.
 Mrs. Mary Neff, 465 Main St., Nor wich, says; For many years one of my family was subjected to attacks of kidney complaint. This one suf- fered from pains across the loins and at times could scarcely get about on account of stiff and lame back. The kidney secretions were irregular in passage and often contained sediment. Doan's Kidney Pills procured at N. D. Sevin & Sons Drug Store, proved of benefit from the first and soon every symptom of kidney complaint disappeared"
 Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy-get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that Mrs. Neff recommends. Foster Mill burn Co.,, Props, Buffalo, N Y.

 The larger railroads east of Chica- go have agreed to deliver to the west ern roads twenty per cent. more box cars than are received from westward roads, according to the American Rail way association.

MAN AND GIRL JAILED,
Rosa Gaudette and James Macomber, Living at CarqiII Hotel, Arrested on Providence Wife's Tip.

Rose Gaudette, 23, of Lowell, and James Macomber of Providence are prisoners at Brooklyn jail today, the young woman to remain for 25 days, the young man for 30 days. They were sentenced by Judge J. H. Fuller in the city court Friday after they had been arrested at the Cargill hotel, where they have been staying for nearly two weeks. The hotel register figured in the court proceedings against them.
 The copule had lived there peace fully enough until a letter from a wo- man in Providence directed the atten- ton of the police to the pair. In some respects the letter was a pitiful one and set forth that Macomber should be devoting his time and money to those who were nearer and dearer to him than the Gaudette woman, who is very pretty and attractive. in fact, ever so much so, according to the best judges of pulchritude among t<ose in the court room.
 There are some things about the case that are not yet clear to the minds of certain ones who had an oppor- tunity to hear considerable about the case. Macomber denies the allega- ton that he is married and that his wife and child live in Providence and Miss Gaudette denies that she has or ever had a husband. and this is taken for granted. Nevertheless they have had a boy of about years with them at the hotel during their stav in Putnam and there is talk of ariather child in Providence. Miss Gaudette is not the mother of eith child.
 Miss Gaudette bore up bravely un- der the ordeal that her arrest and the subsequent proceedings subjected her to, but after she had been sentenced to iail she broke down and wept bit terly. There were those who were very sorry ts see such a fine appear ing young woman in such difficulty.

Dear Social Corner Editor:
 Scattered over New England are hundreds of little school houses going to ruin because the pupils are carried to the town school and there is also a complaint of no social center in these have the seats, desks, etc, and in those the cost is almost nothing. If these have been removed collect, we buy at auctions, a kitchen table, a few small stands and some wooden, or better yet, some folding chairs, and a stove.
 Try to get fat-topped stove where a tea kettle and coffee pot can be used. New paint and paper will cost little if someone will give the work and clean window shades are only a few cents each. Put up two or three rough shelves and a cupboard eff there are none), beg some lamps of people who have electric lights, see some music dealer about an organ he has taken in exchange and the room is complete.
 Let each farmer furnish a certain amount of wood and every family bring papers. magazines, etc. Tn every place are those who seldom go to church and the children could be in duced to gather for a Sunday school Sunday afternoons, and often some pastor would hold a service if asked.
 One evening in the week there could farming, politics and the news of the week WAS talked over and illustrated by helpful reading.

COCO COUNSEL FROM JENNIE.

Dear Sisters of the Social Corner: l greet you once more with thoughts of good will and thanks to those who have responded in a kind word to me. Aunt Sarah: I would reply, No, 1 have no auto. If you suspected I had one you are on the wrong track. Nei-- ther have I been seen riding in an auto anywhere between Willimantfc and New London.
 Mother Hubbard: I admire your good open-hearted advice to, the younger housewives, and in connec- tion with it would add: Avoid all jealousy because one has more ad- vantages and better facilities to help them with their work. while the next door neighbor has many things to contend with to keep their work lag ging." Much sympathy should be given to q young mother, who has sic<ly, fretfu1- children, and her own health. not very gocl, trying her best to keep up, endeavoring to smile when a lump fills her throat. These are the sisters, who are worthy of every en- couragement an older sister can give her
 It has been quoted from some old source that woman is wonan's worst enemy" Oh! how cruel these words If we must recognize as truth I verify believe the root of the evil is to be found in jealousy. How serious the results from this weakness which every stage of life, from early days to age, we find the disposition of jeal- ousy manifested and from all sorts of causes and nothing seems much harder to bear in the burden of life than to be victim, preyed upon by the power of a jealous mate or enemy. Oftimes the wolf turks in sheep's clothing, unbe<nown to the unsuspect- ing. How much better would it be if we prayed: Build thee more state ly mansions O! my soul, as the swift seasons roll!"

The report shows that the board re- ceived 50 applications from the amounts fixed by the assessors. Only thirteen of the applications were granted. Nine lists were increased by the board of relief. The total re- ductlons amounted to $7,832. The to- tai increases amounted to $5,081. The total corrected valuation of non-res- ident lists amounts to $4,e4o83.
 The total of the grand list of the town as revised is S4,271,144.
 Following the very substantial in creases that were made last fall in many lists by the board of assessors it was anticipated that there would be a great many applications for re- ductions when the board of relief be- gan it's sessions but this proved not 70 be the case, so it is now taken for granted that there was a general will ingness among the taxpayers to abide by what was accepted as a fair-and se- rious effort by the assessors to carry out the instructions of the annual own meeting as to inspecting each piece of property and assessing as near as possible to its real worth.
