In capturing Loivre they have drawn nearer to Bermericourt and have gone far beyond the famous position which they lost in the first weeks of the war and failed to win back at the battle of the Marne.
 According to the latest news reach ing Paris the Germans are lombard ing the lost trenches furiously, coun- ter attack after counter attack having been delivered far into the night. The struggle is particularly fierce in the region of Craonne, but the French have so fer managed to hold their gains.

Charles F. Sheldon.

Following a lengthy illness, Charles F. Sheldon, aged 79 years. for more than eighteen years superintendent of the Erwin Home. died late yesterday afternoon. Death was not unexpect- ed, his condition having been critical for several days. He was born in Warren but had passed the greater part of his life in this city. For many years he was employed at the Stanley Works as gatetender.
 At the Erwin Home, MT. and Mrs. Sheldon were very popular with the inmates because of their efforts to make life in that institution as con- genial as possible. A Civil War vet eran, he was 8 member of Stanley post. G. A. R., and fraternally, was affiliated with the United .Workmen, New Britain council, O. U. A. M., and the Fraternal Benefit League. Be- sides his wife, he is survived by two daughters, Miss Marion A. Sheldon and Mrs. Bertha Futile, both of this city, and a son, c. l.. Sheldon of Holyol<e. Mass.
 The funeral will be held from the Erwin Home at 1880 tomorrow after noon and half hour later from the Peoples church. The burial will be in Fairview cemetery.

ride his veto of the liberal Sunday law.
 Commander S. H. Wood of Stanley post, G. A. R., has requested the at- tendance of all members at the meet ing tomorrow night in G. A. R. hall, when plans will be made for taking part in the parade. The veterans of '61-'65 are determined to show the men of today that their spirit of pa triotism is not decreased because of age.
 All veterans of the Spanish-Ameri- can war are invited to march with A G. Hammond camp, U. s. w. V., Thursday afternoon in the parade. Members of the camp and others are requested to meet at 1880 o'clock that afternoon at G A. R. hall. Com mander Burton c. Mercy and Captain Eugene F. Barnes, adjutant, will be in charge. Members of the camp ex- pect that their uniforms will be se- cured in time for the Memorial Day parade.
 Girl Scouts to March.
 The Girl Scouts of New Britain, who are conducting a membership cam paign this week, will take part in the big parade. They will assemble at the Y. w. c. A. building at 1:45 o'clock and march in a. body to the starting place of the parade on Franklin Square.
 On Saturday the Girl Scouts of the Y. w. c. A. will give a play, written by one of the members to illustrate the scout movement. Tickets may be procured at the association.

ried through the air for several hun dred yards, many of them dropping on the roofs of other buildings in the immediate vicinity. The roof of tho residence of A. H. Dresser on West Main street started to burn but the firemen extinguished it before 1t had caused any material damage. The sparks also started blaze at Nick Belleni's house and communicated to the Osborne and Stephenson factory, neither of which were damaged as a result of the skill and energy dis- played by the firemen. Edward I. Carter's brass foundry, which is To- cated on North Washington street, directly opposite the Hills plant, was in grave danger for a long dime and or several occasions it appeared to be doomed. Although streams ot water were played on the Carter shop. literally drenching it, the intenseness of the heat from the burning struc- ture on the opposite side of the street, blistered the walls and cracked the windows. The plant was saved. however, and was not greatly dam- aged.
 Wooden buildings on the Hills property, used as storerooms, and the brick office building in the vicinity, were seriously threatened but they too were saved.
 New Britain Would Help.
 Five streams were directed on the burning building but they had little effect, the water seemingly acting as fuel for the roaring flames.
 The fire ragged so furiously at one time that the New Britain fire depart ment was asked to hold itself in readi- ness to render assistance should the Plainvile company lind itself unable to cope with the confiagration. The efficials in that city agreed to send it's men here should their services be required.
 Tons of water were poured on the burning building but the fire did its work so thoroughly that the charred wood and the wreckage of the ma- chinery was about all that remained this morning. The success of the flremen fin saving other property was remarkable and Chief Norton and his brigade were the recipients of many today. But for their skill and tire1ess energy the entire section would probably have been wiped out and the loss made stagger- ing in it's proportions.

 Headed by Colts band of Hartford. the New Britain lodge of Elks will occupy a prominent part in the pa- rade. Present indications point to a turnout of over 800 members of the lodge. At a special meeting of the organization final details were com- pleted amid plenty of enthusiasm. The committee in charge has arranged for luncheon to be served at the club house from 12 to l o'clock 50 that all members may report there immedi- ately after close of business hours, where final preparations for the pa- rade will be made.
 The step taken by the Elks in se- curing a band is one that has won wide praise.
 < It is the desire of Exalted Ruler Timothy w O'Brien, that every mem- Der possible be present to participate in the parade. The band will have its full membership of thirty-five pieces.
 Boys Club to Take Part.
 Superintendent Robert H. Craw- ford of the Boys club stated this morning that the club members will take part in the parade and will probably have a decorated float in the procession. He also stated that the boys have from among their members a brass band of twenty-five pieces and trey would be willing to take part also, but there may be opposition to their playing as they are a non-union organization while the bands. which have so generously donated their services gratis. are union organiza- tions.
