VALUABLE MAIN
STREET ESTATE
HAS BEEN SOLD

A deal transferring valuable prop
erty at 1032-34 Main street from the
Burritt estate to Stephen d. Horan
was consummated today. Although
the purchaser was not willing to make
known the purchase price, it is esti-
mated that it sold for between $115, ,OOo
and $4,000. 1t had been held by the
Brrrritt heirs, Miss Mary Burritt and
her sister. Mrs. Pomeroy for more
than a score of years.
Horan is the proprietor of the James
Horan & Sons, florists, now located
at the corner of Broad and Bank
streets. He has not made definite
plans, but it is expected he will move
his business to that location within a
few years. He holds a lease on the
southwest corner of the new buas5ing
at the corner of Main and Bank
streets.
In an interview today he said, "Tve
been seeking a centrally located piece
of property for the last 10 years and
began negotiations for this last sum
mer."
The property is now occupied by a
boot black stand, barber shop, Shef-
field lunch room and Albany dentists.

LOVED ART MORE
THAN HUSBAND,HE
OBTAINS DIVORCE

Gilbert W. Goodridge, assistant gen.
eral manager of the Bryant Electric
Co., now living at The Stratfeld, was
today granted a divorce by Judge
John P. Kellogg In the Superior Court
from Laura Ormsbee Goodridge, now
of Syracuse, upon charges of deser-
ton. They were married August 81,
1912, and did net live happily owing to
diverse tastes, and finally after quar-
rel Ms. Goodridge left her husband
January Is, 1918. and went to SYRIA
cuse, N. Y.
Goodridge told the court today that
he is much older than his wife, and II
was his second marriage. He said
Mrs. Goodridge is a musician, q vio-
linist of much promise, and cared
more for her music than she did for
her home. She continually desired to
attend theatres and musicalSs, while
he preferred his home and the society
of his child by former marriage
Finally the disparity of taste led to
quarrels, and later the separation.
Mrs. Mabel Bates, who lived In the
same house with the Goodridges, testi-
fed to frequent quarrels between the
couple, and to Mrs. Goodridge going
away.

$25O,OOO,OOO IN
SILVER DOLLARS
WILL BE MELTED

Washington, April 9-Melting into
bullion of not more than 250, 90
silver dollars now in the treasury for
sale and export to pay trade bal
ances, and repurchase of silver at 81
an ounce is proposed in an admins
tration bill introduced today by Sem
ator Pittman as an emergency war
measure. Silver certificates would be
withdrawn from circulation as the
dollars are taken from the treasury
and federal reserve bank notes of
new 81 and 50 denominations would
be substituted.
If enacted, the measure virtually
would fix standard price for silver
at 81, several cents above the pres
ent market, and stabilize the world
market, since the United States pro-
! duces almost half of the total. The
Abill also is intended to stimulate sill
yer production, and to use-the treas
ury reserve stocks of that metal, in
stead of gold, to settle this country's
commercial trade balances in the or
lent and elsewhere.

London, April 9-Parliament
reassembled today after the
Easter recess with two ques-
tions of great Importance on its
hands. The first is the new
military service bill, which
raises the age limit eight years
and makes those born after a
fixed date in the spring of 1857
liable to bear arms. The Sec
ond is another and what prom
ises to be a strong attempt to
deal with the ancient and al
ways contentious problem of
government for Ireland.
Both these issues have been thrust
upon the cabinet during the brief re-
cess, the first by the desperate Ger
man attacks in France, which demand
all the men the Allies can muster as
quickly as they can be put into the
field, and the second by the conclusion
of the Irish convention and the rend-
ering of it's report, which Premier
Lloyd-George promised would be fol-
lowed by legislation.
The deepest attention is command
ed by the conscription bill because 1t
vitality affects the interests and des-
TIMES of hundreds of thousands of
men and families in that part Of the
United Kingdom east of the Irish sea.
Premier Lloyd-George will make
the opening speech and will expound
the military situation which confronts
the nation. Sir Auckland Geddes, di-
rector of recruiting, will outline the
details of the man power bill.
The country appears to be unusually
united in it's willingness to accept the
recruiting measure with the full rea-
lization that the extension Of the age
limit to so years will bring hardships
and often financial shipwreck to many
small business men and families, be-
sides hitting larger firms whose work
is carried on mostly by men over 40

WANTS PRUSSIAN
STATUE DROPPED
INTO POTOMAC

Washington, April AT the sec
ond session today OF the National Con-
ference of American Lecturers, in the
course of bitter denunciation of the
Hohenzollerns, Senator Owen of Ok
lahoma declared the War College
statue of "that venerable Prussian
scoundrel, Frederick II, ought to be
dragged down and dropped into the
Potomac"
''The Kaiser has fallen down mis-
erably in his vainglorious promises to
his people," said Representative Sim
con D. Hess of Ohio. "The Potsdam
assurance of August, 1914, that Ger
man troops would return to their
homes in less than three months" he
said, "can be classed with their prom
ises to bring England to her knees
and to relieve the German people
from the payment of the enormous
war expenses"

HOSPITAL SITE
AN EFFECTUALLY
ISOLATED spot

Mayor c. b. Wilson and commit
tee from. the Board of Health clam
bered over rocks and ruts in North
Bridgeport one day last year in
search Of a site for the proposed Iso-
lation hospital and came across nice
tract owned by the w. s. Dewhirst
estate. They decided it would be an
excellent location and Immediately a
check for $4,000 was paid to the
heirs.
Today they find that, although the
site Is an excellent one. there is no
way to get into it except by climbing
the rocks and ruts and besides they
must cut through private property in
order to lay a sewer into the grounds.
There are three streets leading in the
direction Of the site, but they are
streets only by name and on the city
maps.
Golden Rod avenue is a stretch of
wilderness, Jewett avenue affords a
natural barricade of rocks and Engle-
wood avenue does not come within so
feet of touching the outer west edge
of the lot.
Now 1t is estimated the city will
have to spend at least as much as the
land cost to get an entrance into the
plot

Assistant superintendent Fred o.

Smith was appointed about two
wears ago as an assistant to slawson'
but with the establishing of the pre-

school building, Smith was placed In
charge, and, it is said, cannot find
time to do anything else. The real
cause of dissatisfaction could not be
definitely learned.
On the other hand, Clerk Wyn-
koop has proved himself one of the
most efficient clerks in that depart
ment in the city's history, and rather
than let him go, it is limited he is
likely to be promoted to an assistant
superintendency.
