Stockmen ORGANIZE

A large and enthusiastic meeting
of the farmers of the tract was held
last Saturday in the city hall and
r. B. Marsh, secretary of the Live
Stock Association, who lives at Wen
dell, was present and explained the
aims and objects of the organization
and what had been accomplished so
far in their efforts.
An auxiliary organization was per-
fected with w. ]. Taper as presi-
dent, Duet Johnson vice president.
and B. F. Crane as secretary. The

against the 64O-acre bill which has
passed the House; also in favor of
law that will take into the forest
reserve Owyhee County and all the
grazing lands contiguous to the vari-
Gus reserves within the state.
There would not be much value to

lead to the large stockowners getting

EVERYONE WANTS A
 GLIMPSE OF DEUTSCHLAND
New London Customs Officials BesIeg-
 ed by Urgent Requests.

Officials connected with the New London custom house are among the most popular persons in New London Ever since Tuesday night perfect strangers have been transformed into acquaintances, acquaintances have suddenly developed into apparently lifelong friends, and friends have be- come blood-brothers to New London officials, judging by manner in which said officials are besieged on all sides by solie;touS people who wiring their hands, clap them on their respective backs and earnestly inquire as to the health and happiness of their fami- lies. ..
 If one of the officials has business on the pier he scarcely enters the closely guarded confines where the submersible is docked before he is notified that someone outside Is ur- gently requesting to see him. On in Vestigating he finds it to be a friend, acquaintance or a comparatively stran- ger, as the case may be, expectantly awaiting an invitation to be called in side where he can see the big under sea liner. The official mail contains their influence to get friends" into the enclosure where the Deutschland will be visible to their curious eyes. There are telephone calls and personal requests for such favcrs every minute of the day and the officials are about ready to be treated for nervous prostratfon. Yes, we're very popu- lar now" said one official Monday. If we were running for anything Tues majorities, believe me. And we wouldn't have to guess who voted for us. They'd come right around and tell us."

REMARKABLE COSTUMES
 DESIGNED BY THOMAS R. BALL
-'oung Artist of Norwich Ancestry is
 Praised by New York Critic.

At the rooms of the National Socie- ty of Craftsmen, New York, is an eA- hlb1t1on Of drawings and models for stage sets, theatrical costumes, and accessories, of which the art critic of The New York Sunday Times said: In Thomas Raymond Ball. One series by MT. Ball was made for The Fairy Bride given for the Irish benefit last spring. The wickedness of Queen Buan is symbolized by the scarlet in the color scheme, and her son, the Wicker Prince, is given a remarkably gorgeous costume of scarlet and pur- pie and murky Bakst green. while the Good Prince. her stepson. is less au- dacious in blue and white and dull king demonstrates the accommodating way in which current styles and cheap fabrics play into an artists scheme when he knows precisely what he wants. The kings robe is a 15-cent a yard awning cloth of handsome stripes kings of Ireland, before the time of good St. Patrick. were allowed to wear. eight colors, if they were upper kings, and at least six colors if lower kings, while the nobles could wear from two to four colors, and the peasants but one color. Hence the appropriateness of the many colored stripes of awning cloth, but if you are not erudite and an artist you miss these opportuni- ties.
 The success of young MT Ball as designer and artist is of much interest in Norwich, as he is a grandson of the late Theodore Raymond. His cou- sin, Philip Raymond Goodwin, is also a young artist and illustrator of dis tinction, painter of animal pictures of rare merit. The latter is the son of Mrs. Ella Raymond Goodwin. and the former is the son of Mrs. Alice Raymond Ball.

DECISION IS NOT DECISIVE
Counsel for the Misses Lucas Say Simply Holds That Ap

 of Testing Legality of the Order Open the Plaintiff


 That the decision of Judge Burpee. handed down on Saturday, in the case of the Misses Lucas vs. the city of Norwich, does not decide the sidewalk question at issue was the statement made on Monday by counsel for the Misses Lucas, and they also indicate in the statement that the case is to be carried further
 The statement made follows:
 The decision of Judge Burpee re- gently handed down in the matter of N. B. and M. c. Lucas vs. the city of Norwich is not decisive of the ques- tion as to whether or not the court of common council had the authority to plaintiffs and to enforce such order. Judge Burpee's decision simply goes to the extent of holding that an appeal to the superior court does not lie from this order of the court of com

mon council. There are other ways of testing the legality of this order which are open to the plaintiffs, and they are not barred from pursuing other reme- dies simply because judge of the su- perfor court holds that an appeal is not the proper one. To read the morn ing paper would convince one that the matter was settled and that the Miss es Lucas would be obliged to lay granolithic walks forthwith, whereas the only matter that has been settled is one of procedure, and 1t is still to be determined whether the order of the court of commo ncouncil to lay the walk in question Is legal one and can be enforced. It will probably be some time before this real question can be determined by court of final
 jurisdiction, and this explanation should appear in the press in the in terests of those who may have been misled by what mas already appeared.
