Hot One for Lawyers.

Here is a hot one on lawyers and a
certain sort of sportsman.
An attorney was arrested for violat-
ing the game laws-catching is fish
out of season. He pleaded guilty, but
when $50 per fish was the fine i'm
posed he withdrew his plea and got a
brother lawyer to defend him. The
jury, in spite Of the plea of guilty,
brought in verdict finding him guilty
of catching one fish only, and fixed the
fine at $40. One Of the jurors ex-
planned to the angry game warden as
follows:
Eyes, we knew he pleaded guilty
and admitted catching 16 fish. But
the jury. you know, were all of the
same mind. He was lawyer AND a
fisherman"

MRS. WOOLSEY MAKES
GAIN OF II POUNDS
Was in a Rundown Condition Because
of Eight Years Trouble

Was in Rundown Condition Because
of Eight Years Trouble
Praises Tanlac.
''Tanlac proved to be just what I
needed, because it has not only given
me relief but has built me up to where
I have gained twelve pounds in
weight" said Mrs. l.. N. Woolsey, of
1922 West Lake street, Minneapolis,
to Tanlac representative, recently.
Mrs. Woolsey is we'll known in Mime
apolis, where she has lived for eight
years.
II suffered from a generally run
down condition. continued Mrs.
Woolsey, and was troubled this way
for about eight years. 1 was SO ner-
vous sometimes that wasn't able to
get more than just a few hours
sleep and felt so miserable at times
that I would get out of bed and walk
the floor to find some relief. I SIM
ply had no appetite at all and it just
seemed like everything I ate disagreed
with me, soured on my stomach and
bloated me up with gas. and some
times this gas would press so against
my heart that I had trouble getting
my breath. I fell off in weight and
finally got so weak that I had to give
up my work for awhile. I had neu-
! ritis in my left shoulder and arm for
many years so bad that it bothered me
some every night about the time I
went to bed and many a night just
laid awaks for hours suffering terri
BILE pain in my shoulder and got up
in the morning with an awful head
ache from the suffering and lack Of
rest. My feet used to swell so badly
at times I could hardly stand on them
to do my work and seemed to be
troubled with my stomach all the time
and, although I tried many different
things for my trouble, nothing seemed
to help me particle.
"Then I read about Tanlac and what
it was doing for, others that seemed
to be troubled like was, so bought
some of it as soon as it appeared here
in Minneapolis, and I certainly began
to feel better by the time had finished
the first bottle, so kept on taking it
and my strength came back to me and
so did my appetite and my whole con-
dition improved right along. have a
splendid appetite now and sleep good
every night and all signs Of neuritis
have disappeared and feel better and
stronger in every way. I have not on
ly gotten back the five pounds in
weight that I lost but seven more
pounds besides and I just think so
much of Tanlac that I have already
recommended it highly to many peo-
ple."

 Serges, poplins and ottomans are in good demand in the order of popular ity stated. Navy myrtle green and seal are the best liked solid colors, the handsome goods running 40 to 4S inch es.
 For separate skirts, large plaids are favored, the mills turning out superb goods priced from s2.50 to 8 and 40 to II inches in width
 Women who prefer to select their own coatinSs will find this season a fascinating line of does6in or kittens ear cloth on which the price mark Is $5, the width being 54 inches. Rich shades in burgundy, brown, blue and wood green are a delight to the eye of the fastidious shopper whose preference is for garments in dividually selected, custom tailored and cut and finished to suit. personal tastes.

HUSBAND DISAPPEARED
 OVER SEVEN YEARS AGO

In the superior court at New London Tuesday Judge Joel H. Reed granted a divorce to Alice Telford Reid of New London from William Alexander Reid, of whom nothing has ever been heard since Dec. l, 1905.
 The case was before the court last Friday when divorce was sought on the grounds of assertion, but Judge Reed declined to grant the divorce on those grounds on the evidence that was presented. It was shown that the couple had been married Sept. 2S, 1901 and they were living in New York in 1905. On the first of Decem- Der of that year Mir. Reid went out of the house and has never been heard from since. Repeated efforts to find him had been made through the mem bership of a Scotch club to which he belonged, but all had been unsuccess- full.
 The attorney for Mrs. Reid amended his petition to ask for the divorce on the grounds that the husband had been absent and not heard from for more than seven years, and the judge grant ed the petition on these grounds.

DAVIS THEATRE,

Audiences at Davis theatre on Tues day afternoon and evening laughed uh- til their sides ached at the farce com edy, Here Comes the Bride, presented by the Myrkle- Harder Company, who are giving Norwich theatregoers Broad way successes at popular prices this week. This excellent company includes many versatile actors who are able to play anything from tragedy to comedy with equal success and ability as was shown from last nights production.
 The story is light and humorous with a Metropolitan setting and affords im- mense o. tortunity for good comedy. The cast in the production was well chosen, each actor portraying his or her role with realistic expression. AS usual Miss Myrkle was the shining star of the cast as Ethel Sinclair and sec ond only to her was Miss Russell as The Bride. The male leads were taken by Jack Bertin as Frederick Tile and James J. Dempsey as James Carlton, Both were excellent in their parts. 9th CTS in the cast were exceptional.
 Today the company will present A, H. Woods success, Cheating Cheaters which had such a phenomenal run al the Eltit5e theatre in New York last year

OPENING NEW ICE CREAM
 PARLORS ON MAIN STREET

One ot the most modern and Sani- tary ice cream parlors and confec- tionary stores in the city of Norwich will be opened today by Bell and Milton at 144-146 Main street. The proprietors of the establishment have had wide experience in such stores and in the making of candy and ice Mass, having stores in both cities previous to the war. Both young men were in the army and forced to sell out their business interests and now have decided to locl.e ir Norwich.
 The firm has two floors and th basement of the building. In the basement will Nc located the ma chinery for making the ice cream which will be the most modern equip ment in the city. The ice cream will not be started until a few days as all the machinery has not yet arrived but when the plant is in operation the public will be invited to inspect the plant at any time.
 On the main floor will be located the store and ice cream parlor which is very spacious and we'll lighted. The interior of the parlor is done in ma hognany and mirrors. The mirrors are inlaid in mahogany panels. At the right of the entrance is fourteen foot marble fountain where all kinds of drinks are served. including coffee which will be served in connection with light lunches. On the left are the candy cases, all sanitary and dust proof In the rear of the store vii be placed the marble top tables and chairs for patrons. All serving uten- sils are to be washed in boiling water and the most sanitary methods will be used at the fountain.
 The second floor of the building vii | be devoted to the manufacture o- I candy and here again everything use(
 in the manufacture of large variet
 of candy will be sanitary and at any
 time open to public inspection The candy machinery has not yet arrived
 but it is expected that the plant vii
 be in operation in a few days.
 The cost of this new establishment in Norwich is between $10,o0O anc
 s15 900 and no expense has been to,
 great, the proprietors say, to makt
 this place the home of pure confec l tionS and ice cream.

WHAT HIGGINS PROPOSES FOR TROLLEYS

Richard T. Higgins. chairman of the
 Public Utilities commission, was ask ed on the first day of the investigation of the trolley companies in this state,
 what remedy Ee would suggest for the street railway situation He has dis
 cussed the question with his associ-
 ates and has made a, reply. which in
 c'uded the following reoon,menda- tons:
 Among tho remedies which might be applied l would respectfully sug- gest the following, without however. t1tempting to go into the details nec- essarily involved in euactiug laws along the general lines suggested: First, relieve the companies of the present statutory burden of laying and maintaining street paverents. Second, reiief from the present sta- 1 tutory burden in the construction of highway bridges.
 | These two remedies should be per nlanent, and might be drafted along
 the lines of the proposed Massachu- setts act. appearing on page 27 of the i special report Of the Massa chusetts public service commission. submitted February, 1919.
 | Third, relieve the companies from | the burden of taxation by reducing | the percentage of tax O.. gross income
 end suspend payment for q period ot | two years. but ultimately requiring payment thereof with a low rate of 1 interest whenever the revenues of the
 companies will permit, and before any dividends are paid.
 Tn this way the star , can extend
 temporary financial assistance with
 ont actually taking money out of its treasury or violating any of the con stltutional rights of the tax payers. | Fourth, proper regulatinG of jit-
 neys or automobiles transporting pas scngers f.s Lire in and along pub l lie highways C as to eliminate un- just and unnecessary competition. Fifth, amend the stre=; railway

companies charters to permit them to maintain and operate motor vehicles for the transportation Of freight and assengers along the routes and high ways over which they already have charter rights to operate electric rail W2ys and along such other routes and 1 highways as the public utilities com mission shal find to be of public con- venience and necessity.
 T believe tL>> the automobile or l motor vehicle is an important factor and with the constantly improved state highways, will in tEe future be q still more important factCr, in all finds of short haul or intra state
 transportation and that in the natural
 developments of this kind of public
 service, the chartered street railway companies should have the opportuni-
 ty of developing their transportation
 systems along such lines as the pub
 lie may demand.
 Sixth. loar to the companies new | capital for necessary extensions and betterments, but no surfi loan to be made without the approval of the state board of control and of the public tGt;lities commission as to amount, se-
 curity and general terms and condi- tions thereof.
 If some such relief as have sug- Cested is soW granted. and at the end of two years is found to i.a insufficient then, to my mind, financially suc- C. ssful street railway operation Is doomed and must be abandoned or
 t;sken over by the state and operated by the public at public expense.
 If there is: public demand and necessity for street railway transpor
 tation, as I believe there is, and al fother similar forms of Euhlic trans Eortaton on the highways are publicly regulated and controlled so as tc
 aS old unreasonable or destructive competition. then such street railway kompanies, relieved of undue burdens lshould be seif supporting as any bus.

 VICINITY OF MOHEGAN

One of the worst forest fires in the vicinity in many years ragged trough the woods in Mohegan on Tuesday af- ternoon and was still going strong late at night but the band of fighters was making some headway against the blaze. At ono time there was a line of flame shooting through the woods near ly a quarter of q mile in length and was making a clean sweep of every thing in it's way. The fires were go- ing in the direction of Montville and included in its path was the Fort Hill Farm and whether this place was touched by fire could not be learned last night. The blaze was spectacular and many peoIle rode down the New London road in the evening to see the fire.
