 In time of kidney danger, Doan's Kidney Pills are most effective.

 There were solemn days in the Thirteenth Regiment, made up so largely of Norwich men and with Henry D. Birge, Colonel, following the disastrous battle of Port Hudson, in June, 1863, when, at the suggestion of General Banks, storming column of one thousand men was formed Colonel Birge volunteering to lead the forlorn hope.
 Two hundred and forty-two mem bers of the brave column were Nor wich volunteers, knowing well the ground over which they would have to pass and that the chances were against their returning.
 Some of the officers wrote their wills, others transferred money and

Penmanship is to be specialized in the public schools of New London and under uniform system, instead of the slipshod method that has prevailed for years, each teacher being permitted to instruct in teaching writing according to personal ideas and with the expect ed unsatisfactory result The board of school visitors did well when they secured the services of Prof. Robert A. Brubeck to instruct the teachers in penmanship in order that they may impart to the pupils a uniform system of instruction that wifi be of incaleula :, ble Benefit to the pupils, especially in after life. It is safe to say that Professor Brubeck will not instruct in the vertical style that was attempted years ago and with such poor results His Style will perhaps be more in line of the Spencerian system, in which the line of beauty was ah important feature.

of penmanship, it may not be general iy known that the best pennefi of New London at that period were Charles D. Boss and Herbert w. Crandall, both past the three score and ten today. These men were sealled upon quite of ten to write the inscriptions in prize books in the public school. The lats Henry P. Haven and John A. Tibbits were also excellent penmen. A really first class penman in rarity among
 the graduates of schools of late years, especially in New London.

Years ago, when the old men of to-
 day were schooIboys, the Speneerian
 system was taught in the public schools, and penmanship was consid-
 cred an essential of education. Per-
 haps the best teacher of penmanship 1 in the schols of that time was Miss Annie F. Warner of the Union street school, the building now occupied by the Konomoc Hose company. Miss Warner was sister of Judge Edgar M.
 Warner of Putnam, and Edgar was a pupil of that school. Guess he's a fair sort of a penman today. In speaking

Morton F. Plant, true sportsman and patriot that he is, is doing his bit in the war game, although he is not eH- gible for military service, his son is in the service, and the father is look ing well to the comfort of those who may be injured in war and need the best of care when relieved from active duty in battle on the seas. He has saven over to. the government for a naval hospital for convaleseent pa tients the extensive Watson estate on the east bank of the harbor, which, be- fore the coming Of MT. Plant. was the show place of the Thames and in fact the whole town of Groton. In addi- tion, Mrs Plant has donated the sum of S10,0G0 towards making the man. sion adaptable for hospital uses. When convalescent sailors are at this hospi- tai, it can be put down as certainty that they will not lagk for any con- forts of home. and that their stay will be made as comfortable as the off, cers in charge will permit, as what ever MT. Plant does is not confined to narrow limitations.

unusually strong backing for Miner as nominee for lieutenant governor, not for any special political liking, but to place him beyond the pale of nomi- nation for mayor of the city of New London, and leave a clear channel for the nomination of Alderman John k. Murray, who would then be, so far as known at the present time, the only democrat who would be willing to take a chance against the republican nom inee, no matter whether he be Mayor Ernest E. Rogers, Alderman E. Frank Morgan, Alderman Harry c. Chappell, or any other republican. With Miner nominated for lieutenant governor, the democratic slate locally will contain the name of John F. Murray for mayor, James R. May for senator. and William A. Holt and William c. Fox for representatives While Rogers Morgan Chappell combinations are playing for place in the mayoralty. on the republican side, the wise heads of the party are not announcing candi- dates for the senate and house with brass band accompaniment. It, has been hinted, however, that Theodore Bodenwein, former secretary of state, is being given senatorial consideration and that Philip z. Hankey, lawyer, and P. Leroy Harwood, banker, may be named to succeed Holt and Fox. Queer how politicians find time to play the game in these war times, but queer things do sometimes appear in politics.
