legged that the heirs subscribed to an admission that they owed him an amount aggregating $2.078.45, agree ing to reimburse him in amounts of $25 each at varying intervals. It is further alleged in the present suit that they made only one joint payment amounting to $175, and have neglect ed to meet any subsequent payments now overdue. A counter-suit to set aside this agreement is said to have been brought in the probate court by an ht-years-old-son of Ella flaw ley Roper and pr. Joseph c.

A reflection of the .eccentricities of property control which brought the late Edward A. Haw1ey, one of the older Bridgeport's noted realty oper- ators into the ime1ight on many oc- casions, is seen in the elimination of a series of law suits filed in the city court Saturday.
 From the latest litigation brought by Charles S. Cole, a former trustee under the will of Edward Hawley against the heirs, Mrs. Hetty A. flaw ley of Bridgeport, Ella, HawIey Roper of New York, and Harriet Haw1ey Miller of Albany. N. r., demahding $175 of a total of $2s078.45 claimed to be owed him by the estate, it. would the three heirs a decade ago has dwindled materially.
 Attachments amounting to $2oO have been placed upon moneys in banks here. and upon Park avenue properys held in he esate. Attorney Samuel s. Beardsley represents the plaintiff and Judge Henry s. Steven son the defendant heirs.
 Among the properties left by the late Edward A. HawIey was the homestead at:936 Park avenue, which formerly occupied the corner of State street and Park avenue where the drug store of c. s. Packard & Go. is now located f1aWtey De1leVe0 In pre- serving for State street it's stately e1ns and fine residences. When the trolley line was proposed on both State street and Park avenues he op- posed the project vehemently and finally moved his house far to the rear and erected the Alameda block that the noise of the troI1eys might not reach him. It is said that during his long term of life he refused to use a check book, .preferrfng to make out his checks in full handwriting g upon plain paper of varying sizes.
 Upon his death the Bridgeport Trust Go. was named trustee, the beirs having the privilege of changing the trusteeship upon majority applica- ton to the courts. After about eight years this action was taken, Charles s. Cole being dominated. MT. Cole filled the position for several years, during which time it is asserted that he was compelled to advance money to the heirs from his own pocket in anticipation of the collection Of rents. Recently his disposition was asked and litigation sustained him iH the trust. He voluntarily relinquished the task 4@ AaaAaaber go, 1915. when it is al-

Pompei was overwhelmed on the night of Aug. 24, 79. A. D. The prin- cipal citizens were then assembled, it appears, in an amphitheater where public spectacles were in progress. After a lapse of fifteen centuries a countryman, as he was turning up the ground on the farm where he was em- p1oyed, found a bronze figure, which discovery led to further search, in the course of which numerous other ob- jects were brought to light, and thus, at length, was the whole city uncov- cred.

.UNIONISTS WILL
 COMPROMISE ON
 HOME RULE PLAN
Carson Authorized By Ul- ster Council to Continue
 Negotiations

Belfast, Ireland, June 13-Sir Ed ward Carson was authorized. by the Unionist Council yesterday to proceed with the negotiations for a settlement of the Irish question through the pro- posed Home Rule compromise.
 This action was taken at a secret meeting over which Sir Edward pre- sided a resolution being adopted de- clar1ng that if the negotiations fall through, full liberty is reserved to oppose the whole Home Rule policy.
 Members took the position that they are ready to make sacrifices in or der, as the governm ent desires, to bring about settlement that shall strengthen the empire and aid in ob- taining victory in the war.
 Although the meeting was secret, a statement outlining the proceedings was given out revealing that the dele gates from Counties Cavan, Monaghan and Donegal (where the Nationalists are strong), protested against separa- to abide by the decision of the coun- Gil.
 A summary of the settlement of the Irish question tentatively agreed upon between John Redmond, the National leader, and Sir Edward Carson, the Ulster Unionist leader, was printed in papers here recently.
 The propositions contained in that settlement were afterward submitted by MT. Redmond to a conference of Nationalists in Dublin and approved. They now have been submitted by Carson to the Ulster Unionists, who have authorized Sir Edward to .'pro- ceed with the negotiations which doubtless mean that the proposals are accepted, although the pill must be bitter.
 The first exclusive despatch re- porting the tentative settlement said of the plan:
 Under it's terms Home Rule Par 1iament will be imm ediately set up in Dublin for the three southern Irish provinces and also for three Ulster counties-Donegal, Cavan and Mon aghan-the remaining six Ulster coun- ties to continue under the British Par 1iament until the end of the war, when ties will be reconsidered.
 ''In order that the Nationa1ists may be in no worse position when the time for reconsideration comes it is pro- posed that the whole Irish representa- ton in the British Parliament remain during the interval at it's present strength. In other words, the Ma tionaists while getting Home Rule at once for five-sixths of Ireland would be in exactly the same position after the war to fight for the remaining g sixth they are at present.

AVOID FAD OF THE MOMENT
When Buying Furniture or Articles OF
Clothing II Is Well to Look to
the Future.

Few of US are so fortunate as not
to have a procession of furniture that
is vending its melancholy way through
the maids room to the attic, not be
cause 1t is worn, but because once 1t
was "the most popular thing OF the
season." says a writer in the House
Beautiful. We chose it in a temporary
enthusiasm without consulting the
principles that govern lasting satisfac
tion. When the style had been pushed
out of the way by market hungry for
further profit, the true value OF our
purchase stood revealed to us. The
last season has witnessed fever of
stylish shoes. Gray tops have made
way for front seams. Next year both
will be forgotten, because both are
the result OF caprice, not logical
thought
1t is not the whim OF the moment,
then, that we are wise to stamp upon
our belongings of whatever sort, but
the seal of good taste. This is the
product OF Balance between personal
feeling and impersonal principle.

FROM OLD CARDBOARD BOX
Pretty Work Basket Can Be Evolved,
With a Leftover Piece Of Chintz
or Crstonne.

A very attractive and useful work
basket can be made from an old card
board box, a piece of leftover chintz
or cretonne, and about three yards of
inch-wfde ribbon. The bottom part of
a box answers the purpose. A nice
size for basket should measure four
teen inches long, ten inches wide, and
have a depth of about two and one
half inches.
First of all cut the four joints OF
the cardboard box down with a pair
OF scissors, so that the box becomes a
fiat piece of cardboard.
Place this cardboard on q piece of
chintz, allow one-half inch all around
and allow for the four cut-out corners
as in diagram.
Thus an oblong shape of chintz will
result. with no pieces cut out: now
cut out another piece exactly the
same size.
Place the cardboad in the middle Of
these pieces and neatly sew up the
sides; the four little corner pieces
will not have any cardboard in them,
but they must be sewed quite fiat
Out of another piece of cardboard
cut out shapes so that they will span
across and act as handles: cover these
with the chintz and sew one on either
side OF the basket.
Now take the ribbon and sew a
length fiat on each of the four edges
leave a length at each end, so that the
basket can be tied together at the cor
ners with them.
To make the basket in its original
shape, simply fold up the covered
cardboard and secure by tying the end
pieces of ribbon into bows at the cor
ners, this holds the basket in shape.
The ribbon used should tone with the
colorings of the chintz; piece of rib
bon is tied to each of the handle.tops,
they are then tied in bow and the
handle is complete. When the basket
is folded up to the box shape, the four
little corners fold up with it; this
makes just little fullness at the cor
ners, which is an advantage, for it
eases them.
The baskets can be used for all
kinds of purposes, they look dainty on
the dressing-tabe to hold cottons, rib
