George Elinger was captain of the second district men.
 The train on which the men left was schedule to arrive at 9:45 a. m. but it was half hour lat in coming being held up along the Naugatuck valley and between Bristol and this place while the selectiyess climbed aboard. There were nine cars on the train, each one filled with the citizen SOd1cry. There was some delay at the local station, much to the amuse- ment of the out of town boys. Several local girls, attem mpting to climb across the car platforms to get on the other side, Were detained for an instant while several Of the out of town men stole kisses. but there was nothing of fensive in their behavior and it was all taken in good spirit. The last thing seen of the train as it pulled out of the station was a Naugatuck Se1ectiVc, standing on the train plat form, waving quart bottle of whiskey. As the crowd saw it a great shout of laughter went up, whereupon the man pointed to the seal. It was unbroked-then.

TODAY'S TABLOID TALE
Her Own Personality.
By Joe Blast


 Mrs. Skidnott stepped out of her palatial self-stopplng Gim- let limousine and entered Madame KeIly's miilinerium.
 It's getting on into Febru- ary and I simply must have a summer hat" she explained. What I want is something ab- solutcly riginal-individu If you know what 1 mean. I want hat that will express my own personality, one absolutely un- like anything ever worn by any one else, because I pride myself on the fact that I have a per sonality all my own"
 'Oui. Shure. I understand perfectly,' said Madame Kelly, as she carefully put to one side a green turban of skidjee feathers and showed Mrs. Skid mott a horsehair tam -o' -snanter surmounted by french-frie aigrette.
 'fOnly twenty doTIars!'' said Madame Kelly with an exciam- alton point. And it's the only one of it's kind in the world"
 Not distinctive enough" said Mrs. Skidnott My per- sonality would be very uncom- fortable in it.
 Madame Kelly carefully put the turban of green skidjee feathers to the other side, and handed Mrs. Skidnott a hat crowned with real daisies, tWullblossoms and persniffiies growing in real little camou- flaged flower pots, explaining: The hat costs forty dollars, and one of our girls will keep the flowers vatered for you and root up the weeds for three dol lars a week. Absolutely ori- Ginal."
 Mrs. Skidnott, watching her place the turban of green skid ice fea athers back to the one side again. exclaimed, Tell me about that hat in your hands,
 "Oh. you wouldn't be inter estcd in that" said Madame Kelly carelessiy, Mrs. Hyphen A1ack-A1ass, the big society leader, you know, is wearing one exactly like it. It costs s125.5O."
 And, just as Madame Kelly knew she would, she did.

 There is little more that can hap pen to Russia new.

 The depoeed Czar of all the Rus sias, Nicholas IL, in all his autocra- tic glory, never did as much harm to Russia as the irresponsible Trotzky" Lenine government which signed Ger many's terrible peace pact. The Czar was supposed to be pretty bad. In comparison,@ his riotous successors, drunk with power, are even worse.

Russians Blow Up
Bridges in Siberia
To Halt Japanese

WASHINGTON. March THE Rus
SLAMS have been destroying bridges on
the Trans Siberian Railway between
Lake Baikat and the Chinese frontier.
John F. Stevens, chairman of the
American Railway Mission, reported
this to-day to the State Department.
This may prevent Ambassador Francis
from reaching Vladivostok.
While without details, officials here
believe the Russians are destroying the
bridges to prevent an expected advance
of japanese troops. A large number of
other structures have been mined, Mr..
Stevens also reported, so they could be
readily destroyed
Mr.. Stevens, who sent his dispatches
from Yokohama, and therefore un-
doubtedIy from japanese intelligence
sources, said it was reported the
bridges already destroyed were near
Chita, east of Lake Baikal
Officials do not believe that the de
structon of the railroad is in any way
part of plan to prevent Ambassador
Francis and the other diplomats from
leaYing Russia if they choose to do so.
The only other explanation for de-
stroyings the railroads which officials
here can think of is the fact that there
is German prison camp near Chita
and that Germans may have blown up
the bridges with the double purpose of
stopping movements OF Japanese
troops or intercepting Ambassador
Francis
