NURSES GRADUATED
 AT LOCAL HOSPITAL
Glass Of Thirteen Young Women Receives Diplomas and Gifts

l Graduation exercises for the thir- l teen members of the Training School | of the New Britain General hospital
 were held at the First Congregational church last evening, followed by a l reception and dance in Booths hall. | The graduates were: Misses Dorcas 1 Buzzo Patch, Maybelle Elizabeth Sa- l lerh Hazel Bunnell, Mary Alice Mas 1 sut, Minnie Rose Fritz. Anna Phoebe l Soucy, Mary Victoria Preissel, Mar ion Belle Stansebach, Georgia Hol- 1 comb, Bertha May Keift. Alice Eliza ! McBroome, Maude Agnes Duggan and l Emma Marie Johnson
 Hospital IS Years Old The graduation exercises were largely attended. Judge J. E. Cooper presided and Rev. H. w. Maier de- livered the invocation Tn his open- ing remarks Judge Cooper thanked the audience for their interest as tes- tified by their being present and re- marked that a city of 5O,O00 people
 without a hospital would be a sorry
 one. He told of the origin of the local hospital about eighteen years ago when the soldiers, many sick, re- turned home from the Spanish-Amer- ican war. The training school is now in it's eighth year and this years class is the largest to be graduated.
 Each of the graduates was dressed in the regulation nurses uniform with white cap and marched through the church as Lynch's orchestra played the "Hippodrome" march. Judge Cooper's introduction of Principal Marcus White of the Normal school as the speaker of the evening was that he was able to speak f1uently on any subject and the principal justified the statement. He told the graduates that he has taken more or less of an active part in graduation exercises for forty years, so was not ignorant of the form. He dwelt on humorous "reminiscences of graduations of the other days that he had attended and then launched forth into a discussion on the wonderful growth of the medi- cal profession and that of the nurse He told the graduates that if they can live up to the kindliness of char acter and spirit that have character ized nurses in past years they will be truly hailed as angels.
 Gifts Are Presented.
 Dr. E. T. Fromen, in presenting the diplomas, also spoke feelingly of the work of the nurse. He told of the many trials and hardships that are a nurses part and then presented the diplomas. The gifts school pins and companion cases. given by E. H. Davidson and Mrs. F. L. Hungerford, were presented by Dr. F. w. Peck. Class songs and orchestra selections Cor1Dleted the program.
 The decorations were by Fred Bol- lerer.

PULLAR & NIVEN
FIRE THREATENS GAS PLANT
Hartford Has $35, 1000 Blaze Which Department Fights Hard to Keep From Spreading.

Hartford, Oct. 10.-With a brisk October breeze in it's favor and the main works of the Hartford City Gas Light company directly in it's path, a fire, starting from an undetermined cause, in the plant Of the James Pull lar company's carriage shop on Me- chanic street today fought hard to reach adjoining pro cperty ill it's de- y structive work but was confined to the Pullar plant after a stiff hours fight by the fire department. It was a $36,- 900 blaze, full of thrills, and fuller still of possibilities.
 The only personal injury was that to Gregory Guleserian, hoseman of No. l, who fell from a ladder and was talk en to St. Francis hospital suffering from a sprained ankle.

the prison without his cooperation or even consultation. In reference to this he said:
 regret to say that you have not kept faith. Your recent orders issued to the press before they even reached the Wardens-thus giving no time to object to correct or to modify-are such as to make good administration in any institution-state prison or business corcern-impossibl You have forbidden that the public shall have full knowledge of what is going on in their own penal institutions, yet this very secrecy which you would en- force is the very thing that makes pos sible the graft and brutality of the old system, and still makes possible continuance of graft and brutality in one of the state prisons under your charge.
 Escapes and prison delinquencies which have always existed under the old system, but have been materially reduced under the new, are made your excuse for spreading abroad doubt and distrust for the Mutual Welfare league and even for the actual destruction of it's activity.
 For instance in your latest order of October you write: T have de- clded that hereafter the privilege of convicts known as "lifers' and those having long terms must be confined inside the walls of the institutions; this order to take effect at once.'
 ''Nothing could be more explicit or imperative. The warden is to exercise no judgment of his own, the superin- tendent has decided and his order is to take effect at once. Without the head of the institution being consult ed my office is disorganized, the comp troller's office is stripped of every clerk; the forces in charge of the sta ble, the package and the visiting rooms (pIaces where reliable men are vital in order to prevent the inroads of drugs and Hquor) are deprived of their responsible heads end most of their workers. The company repairing roads in charge of the highway de- partment is demoralized."
 In another part of this letter Os- borne says that the publication of these orders by Garter in the newspa- pers before they were given to him forgave warning to long timers to es- cape before he had an opportunity to lock them up. He calls attention to the fact none did, which he says is rroof of the value of the system W vbich Carter is attempting to destroy.

BRINGS SECOND SUIT.
Failing in First, Vivian c. Miller
 Brings Another Action.

Vivian C. Miller of Newington to- day brought suit against Saverio Ma politano, claiming damages of $250. Constable Fred Wrinkle attached prop erty at 118-120 Beaver street and the writ is returnable before the Novem- Der term of the court of common pleas.
 This is the second suit within a few weeks that the Newington resident has brought against the local man, but the first one was thrown out of court because of technicality. It was made returnable before the jus tice court in Newington, but as the suit was for $150 and $100 is the maximum case over which a justice court has jurisdiction the case was thrown out.

ceived a wireless warning while off Nantucket on Sunday that a German submarine was in the vicinity. Life boats were swung out and life belts distributed among the 670 passengers, and the ship abruptly turned her course to the south. Off Cape May the Cameronia entered the three-mile neutrality limit, and hugging the shore, steamed north, not once going outside the safety zone.
 The Greek steamship Patris upon her arrival here today from Medi- terranean ports reported that she sighted a submarine during foggy weather off Nantucket at 5:30 a. m., Monday. The Patris' captain said he tried to speak to the U-boat in the Morse code but received no an- swer and his vessel proceeded unmo- tested.
 The French Line steamer Espagre was safe in New York harbor early today. On board were Mme. Sarah Bernhardt, Mme Lima Cavalieri an opera singer; Mme. Maria Montessori, educator, and McDougal Hawkes., president of the French Institute in the United States.
