the people are the only ones who have
the right to make any alterations.
Despite this opinion the council recent

Tissue Building

Tissu is ne doctors name for body cells.
 It is to our bodies what coal is to m engine.
 Every day we burn up a certain amount of tissue.
 Therefore new tissue must be built to take the place of the lost fuel.
 The food we eat nal7es this new tissue and in a healthy person gives enough fuel to replace the loss.
 People get thin and run down" because they do not get enough nourlsll1nent from their food to supply the needed fuel.
 When the weakened system does not do Its duty you must have tissue builder" Father Johns Medicine is a real tissue builder be- cause 1t actually makes new flesh and tissue When you take Father Johns Medicine, the actual food elements of which it Is composed give you new a'reng gth. end enable the or gans of the body to resume their work
 Father John's Medicine soothes Id heals throat and is Lest for colds. bronchitis, asthma.
 People gadn weight steadily while taking it.
 Remember, Father Johns M6di- cine contains no alcohol CT danger ous drugs. Ii has history of more than haNf a century of success.

MANY PLANS FOR
 GAR TERMINAL
Troleys Will Perhaps Enter Plaza and Leave it By a
 Loop.

After the public hearing on the petition of the Connecticut company
 to coQstruct, operate arI maintain a double track extension on Water
 street from It's present tracks in Fair
 field and Stratford avenues te the
 eastern limits cf the proposed Plaza
 to a connectica with It's present
 tracks on Main and State streets, had
 been passed over by the Board of AL
 dermen, with only DE sing interest,
 Alderman Henry A. Lewis, late in
 the meeting asked for the reopen ing of the hearing. This was put in
 the form of Q motion and adopted.
 W. c. Dunham. engineer for the Con necticut company was then called up
 on to expla.l matters.
 MT. Durham said the Connecticut company was in no way responsible
 for tho Idea, and it had eminated from
 the Traffic Commission in regard to
 the Plaza. He said following these
 Dlans the Connecticut company,
 which had q franchise to lay tracks on Water street, would like to put them down temporarily to relieve traf-
 fic congestion on Main street. The engineer explained that while the company had the authority to lay tracks by an act of the legislature l it was necessary to gain the consent of the Board of Aldermen in regard to the position on the street the : tracks should be laid.
 Alderman Malcolm MacFayden who had a blue print of the plans
 for the laying Of the tracks before him, questioned Mir. Durham closely on the adv1sability of a seven foot curve width at the corner of Main and State streets. Alderman MacFayden said this was a busy corner and he could not see how congestion would be done away with by curve that ; would not allow two cars to pass at the same time. MT. Durham said , that was the best the company could ! do.
 ; The engineer tried to impress Upor ] the aldermen the fact that the com pany was not very desirous of laying ! tracks at all, and 1t was simply fol l lowing the plans of the traffic com mission, which had submitted severa i ideas. He said the United State: l Housing corporation had been instru i mental in having the matter brough ! before the Board of Aldermen, be l cause they had threatened to with l draw their finapciaI aid unless sonic 1 thing was done immediately.
 ! MT Dunham said the present pla1 i was to lay tra cks. and then operat' 1 the cars, either in a loop system, O. l with the proposed Plaza as 9 ta- minaI station claiming this was up | 1 the Traffic commission, as they hat | presented about 20 plans none O | which had been definitely decided upon.
 The hearing closed with doub,5 il | the minds of the aldermen and alst
 the citizens who attended the meet | ing.

London, April S.---(Correspondenc
 of The ASsC.ia- ed Press )---Generai Denikine head oi the Russian Nolun- tear Army, which is fighting E4'Lshev-
 ism in Southern Russia, is described by an English adn1rer from Odessa as "A man of about 50 years with reg ular features and the fine presence of the striking Russian type. He gives one the impression of being a, broad minded. night thinking, determined, " ell balanced man"
 The Associated Press correspond .cat met this Englishman, whose name may not be disclosed at the British Foreign Office.
 Denfkine, he said. is guiding his army and his Special Councir through dangerous shoals. but so far Ee has not encountered any reefs. The Special Council,'' he explained, l! is a legislative body which is laying the foundation of a rev AIl-Rus- sian government" He described it's
 members as reformers, all broad
 minded and Determined to give Rus sta every possibility of gaining @ place among the free nations of Europe" The Volunteer Army now number ing 10O,000 men and holding a belt
 reaching from the Black Sea to the Caspian, he described as non-pOHtica1.

Sergeant McDonoUgh Com memorates Climbing of Highest Hill in
 France"

Having escaped the shells and shrapneI Of the battles of the Argonne and St. NIihiel. but showing evidences of suffocation from chlorine gas and bad burns from mustard gas, Sergeant Frank McDonough of 64 James street is back from Bridgeport after a stren- uous campaign with the 316th Regi- rnent of the roth Division. Sergeant McDonough describes the St. Miniel battle as a "AslI Of gas fought in mud" He says the territory covered in this battle consisted of pretty little villages about a mile apart, the in habltants of which were engaged in agriculture solely. After each little village was captured by the victorious Americans the villagers would rush out to greet their deliverers. Their i joy was almost delirium. They would creep on their knees and kiss the hands of the passing Yankee SOL diers.
 1 Sergeant NcDonough displayed 8 few silves pieces of American money which he caITieH through the battle 1 of St Mihiel. It Is tarnished and looks like copper pieces. from the eff | fleets of the mustard gas. Although badly burned by mustard gas in this

 Upon receiving news that his or garization was to start for home, Ser geant McDonough was so inspiT ed that he wrote these verses: When we left the Camp St. Aignan
 and trF~eled farther West All were very happy; we were going down to Brest.

 Yet we were going nearer to the land
