POLICE MAY PROBE
 THE HILLS' RESORT
Revelations Made to Them by New Britain Girl .

Absolute proof of the subtle and sinister operation of the nefarious cadet system'' in New Britain for some months past with a resultant 1lu- man harvest is in the possession of police officials as . result of disclos- ures made by nineteen years old Min nie Dobruck of 29 Harvard street, who was committed to the House of the Good Shepherd by Judge James T. Meskill yesterday. Evidence is possessed by them that the alleged re- sort of ill repute between Springfleld and HOlyoke, Mass, known as s'the Hills" has received number of young women and girls from this city, seduced from home by suave- talking and well-dressed strangers. and is popular destination of "joy ride" automobile parties from this city. A number of the women and girls sought by the authorities as "1nysteriously missing from home'' have been named as recent residents of the resort. At present, according to the admissions of the Dobruck girl, there is but one person from this city at the resort now. The authorities nave ncr name.
 As a result of the disclosures, it is expected that "the Hills" will receive the close scrutiny of federal officers, as we'll as state authorities. Accord ing to the admissions of the Dobruck girl. she "a victim of the "cadet system'', was encouraged to leave the city by a visitor to this city of foreign descent. She claims, according to the a fnd fn 11ox fN1I fSN n police, that he was responsible for her going to "the Hills and there is a suspicion in her mind that there was a financial transaction between '.her friend' and those in charge of the re- sort. Although local authorities are reticent as to the course to be pur- sued by them, 1t was today intimated on good authority that federal and Massachusetts authorities have been acquainted with the admissions of the Dobruck girl.
 The authorities have been unable to connect her in any way with the mys- teriously staying of Charles A. Taft over month ago and they admit that, directly, she possesses no information of value in solving the mystery. Ac- cording to information given, several local people of standing saw her come out from Hartford on the last train the night of the murder. Under the close questioning of the police. it has been asce rtained, however. that New Brit ain and Hartford chauffeurs are ac- customed to take "joy ride'' parties from these cities to the Massachusetts resorts. Information has been given that Taft had taken parties from both this city and Hartford to ''the Hills" on numerous occasions. While the Dcbruck girl claims to know nothing of the murder, directly, it Is believed that some of her former companions may.

Mother! Your child isn't naturally cross and peevish. See if tongue is coated; this is a sure sign the little stomach, liver and bowels need a cleansing at once.
 When listless, pale, feverish, full of cold, breath bad, throat sore, doesn't eat, sleep or act naturally. has stom- ach-ache, diarrhoea, remember, a gentle liver and bowel cleansing should always be the first treatment given.
 Nothing equals "California Syrup of Figs" for children's ills; give tea spoonful, and in few hours all the foul waste, sour bile and fermenting food which is clogged in the bowels passes out of the system. and you have a well and playful child again. All children love this harmless. de- licious fruit laxative" and it never fails to effect a good inside" cleans ing. Directions for babies. children of all ages and grown-ups are plain ly on the bottle.
 Keep it handy in your home. A little given today saves sick child tomorrow, but get the genuine. Ask your druggist for a 5o-cent bottle of California Syrup of Figs" then see that it is made by the California Fig Syrup company"

Therefore He May Have Guard for

 An unusual and complicated situa- ton was made apparent in the apph- cation of the workingmen's compen- sation law at a conference yesterday in Hartford between Commissioners George B. Chandler. Edward c. Con- molly and Miss Elsie c. Osborn. pro- bation officers of this city, and rep resentative of the Aetna Insurance Company relative to the compensa- tion of $6.0S a week for twelve and two-third weeks for Toni Paska of this city. injured Feb. 3. 1917, while employed at the plant of North 6 Judd. How the spending of this com pensation can be regulated was dis cussed at length, 1t being claimed that he spent the last dnstallment in such a manner that he landed behind the bars in Hartford jail. Payments stopped while he was in jail and have not been resumed.
 His original injuries were such that the index finger of his right hand was amputated at the first joint. Because of the claim that he had a weakness for intoxicants, it was agreed that the compensation should not be paid to him unless he was accompanied by Probation Officer Connolly. Comnis- sioner Chandler took the matter un- der advisennent.

HOWARD PLA1r A CANDIDATE

Howard Platt of Hart street today announced his candidacy for council man from the first ward to take the position made vacant by the resigna- ton of Councilan Charles May, who mas been elected as alderman. It is understood that MT. Platt's decision to permit his name to be used was made only after a number of his friends had so urged him. Many people in the first ward feel that MT. Piatt would make an ideal represen- tative in the council as he is entirely Independent of political strings and would not have to seek favors from any one. He is said to have some strong backing for the position.

cdy Tor the Disease Has
 A Been Found.
 Rheuma, the wonderful rheumatism remedy sold by Clark & Brainerd Co. and all druggists. gives quicker and more lasting relief than other reme- dies costing many times as much.
 Rheuma passes the deadly poison ous secretions into the bowels and kidneys, from which they are quickly thrown off in a natural, healthy way.
 Read what a reputable physician says about Rheuma: T have made a most careful investigation of the formula employed in the manufacture of Rheuna. and I heartily recom- mend it as a remedy for all forms of Rheumatism. find Rheuma far in ad- vance of the methods generally em- ployed in the treatment of rheuma- tism. and altogether different in com position from the remedies usually prescribed. ."-Dr. Lyons.
 This should give any sufferer from rheumatism confidence to try Rheuma.

JuOa 18th |!


June 18th, 1917.
The Silver Plume Consolidated Min
ing Co. Denver. Colo.
Gentlemen: | was born and raised
in Silver Plume and having worked in
the mines of this district for over IA
years, | am thoroughly familiar with
the history and workings of all the
mines of the Silver Plume district.
The famous bonanza silver mines of
this district that have produced so
many fortunes for investors and own
ers have all been worked for great
many years through tunnels that cut
the mountains for a great many miles
in every direction and yet there is no
indication that any of these mines
have been worked out and some of the
oldest mines are producing more ore
now than when first discovered.
The above statement seems more
remarkable when the fact that no
mine of this district has ever proven
a failure is given consideration.
The group of ten claims of the Sill
yer Plume Consolidated Mining Com
pany on Brown Mountain give more
evidence in the outcroppings and the
quality and character of the ore TAX
en- from your upper tunnel. now about
100 feet in length, of being bonanza
strike OF unusual size anu Ndlut ludli
any of the mines in which have ever
worked and | have worked in every
rich mine in this district.
The fact that ore worth over $1,000
per ton has been taken from your Bus
ter tunnel. still so near the surface, is
evidence to any experienced miner
that practically unlimited wealth
awaits only the proper machinery and
equipment to extract it from the
ground
One advantage you have over any
of the other companies operating in
this district. is not only the richness
of the ore and the width of the veins.
but the very unusual size of your
very valuable properties. which be-
lieve are fully twice as large as any
of the workings in this district
Wishing you every success,
Yours truly,

Dear Sir: Replying to your request

through this office comes from Silver

This camp is known as one of the
richest camps for silver in the coun-
try. and while this was true in the
past. the shipments of today show
that she has not lost any of her repu-
tation As far as can remember
there have not been any failures in
any company here in handling silver
properties.
| believe that in the near future
this camp will be the greatest Silver.

be of the right service for you, re-

The Silver Plume Consolidated Min

Gentlemen: 1t has been a mystery
to me, why Silver Plume, the richest
silver mining camp in the United
States, is so little known to the inves-
tors of the country and why even the
residents of this town has no chance
to invest in and receive some of the
profits of these tremendously rich
mining properties in the surrounding
mountains.
Almost unbelievable fortunes have
been taken from the Rocky Mountains
tains surrounding Silver Plume but
practically all of the mines are owned
by rich companies who keep all the
profits for themselves.
The Silver Plume Consolidated Min
ing Company is the first company en-
gagged in mining in this canon which
has ever given the small investor an
opportunity to share the tremendous
ly rich profits of this district which
has never known a mine failure.

success Yours truly.

DEMOCRACY VS.. AUTocRACY

The entrance of the United States
into the world war after long and pa
tient efforts to keep out of it, is sole
ly for the purpose of self protectio~
against a tyrannical despot. who re-
CARDS the life of human beings as
nothing, not even those Of his own
people, when they stand in his way
for more power and self aggrandise-
ment. 1t is a hopeful sign which
bodies no good for the bloody tyrant
that his subjects are awakening to
the enormity of the situation and are
moving for social and political bet
terment. Our fervent prayer, there
fore is that the great German people
will soon understand our feelings
for them and our desire that they
shall enjoy liberty even as great as
ours. When they have thrust aside
their insatiate ruler they will again
experience the blessings of peace and
no nation will be gladder than ours.
Then with the Atlantic cleared of the
death-dealing submarines we can
stretch our hands across the sea and
help the nation so long torn by war
to regain its place in the commercial
world, which it has always filed so
creditably. May God hasten the glori-
Gus day when Democracy shall take
the place of Autocracy and when
liberty shall supplant militarism and
injustice, which will come when the
German people no longer permit
themselves to be deceived by a mon.
arch, who seeks only his own glory
and power.
