PROCEEDINGS IN
 DIVORCE COURT

Captain Joseph W. Cone, U. S. A., was granted a decree yesterday by the Superior court. The couple formerly lived in Greenwich where the hus- band is engaged as a civil engineer. While he was in the army his wife employed her time with other men and was seen at gay parties in the several Boston Post Road inns. Mrs. Cone is now living with her father in Stamford.
 On the grounds of desertion a di- vorce was granted to Agnes M Hard ing of Stamford. She alleged that her husband, Frank A. Harding, left her because he could not stand the crying of his baby. The last time the wife heard from him he was filling vaudeville engagement in Louisville, Ky.
 Rose A. White received a decree from Garnet White, both of Bridge port. The woman states that her hus- band was a telegraph operator who could not stay in one place any length of time. In 1912 he was again at tackled by the wanderlust and disap- peared without her.
 Because Lillian NJ Farley refuses to leave the home of her parents in Springfield, even when her husband, Andis W. Farley of Bridgeport, is se- riously ii, the husband was granted a divorcv on the grounds of desertion.
 A temporary a1i1nony to Minnie B. Day was increased from B to S7 pend ing the result of her divorce action against James A Day of Bridgeport. The wife alleges 1ntolerable cruelty and habitual intemperance against Day. The husband protested his abtl- ity pay more than sS a week on the ground that his earnings are al- most entirely devoted to paying debts nontracted by the wife during the past few years.
 Philip H. Dunning of this city, now a sailor on the transport George Washington. was unable yesterday to appear before the court and be heard in his action against Edna Hubbard Cunning. The wife is not contesting the suit. She is an actress appearing in the Rock-a-bye-Baby'' company. now playing in New York.
 Counsel for Samuel H. Bundle, the wealthy Danburyite. was granted per- mission to file croas-complaint, in the divorce action brought by his young wife, Gladys Austin Rundle of New York The couple lived together only a few days. The case will be heard in about two weeks.

BEGIN HOT WAITER DRTNKING IF YOU DON'T FEEL RIGHT Says glass of hot water WIth phosphate before breakfast
 washes out poisons.

If you wake up with q bad taste, bad breath and tongue is coated; if your head is dull or aching; ii what you eat saurs and forms gas and acid in Stom- cen, or you are bilious, constipated, @ervOus, sallow and cant get feeling --ft right, begin inside bathing. Drink E2ore breakfast, 6 glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in 1t. This will flush the pOisOns and toxins from stomach, liv- CT, kidneys and bowels and cleanse, sweeten and purify the entire alimen- tary tract. Do your inside bathing im- mcliately upon arising fin the morning to wash out of the system all the pre- vious days poisonous waste, gases and sour bile before putting more food in to the stomach.
 To feel like young folks feel; like you felt before your blood, nerves and muscles became loaded with body im- purlties, get from your pharmacist a quarter pound of limestone phosphate which Is inexpensive and almost taste less, except for a sourish twinge which is not unpleasant.
 Men and women who are usually constipated, bilious. headachy or have any stomach disorder should begin this inside bathing before breakfast. Adv

Anniversary of Rufus Griswold, Editor
 Who Maligned Poe

Today marks the 104th anniversary of the birth cf Rufus Wilmot Gris- wold, one of he most distinguished Cf the magazine editors of the middle part of the nineteenth century. Gris- wold's greatest claim to fame-some would say infamy--is that he was the literary patron and executor of Edgar Allen Poe, Maryland's tragic genius. By exaggerating Poe's faults, and paying too little attention to his vir- tues, Griswold worked great injustice to the unhappy poet in the opinion of the 1atter's vast multitude of ad- nirers.
 Griswold was born at Benson, Vt, Feb. Is, 1915. In his youth he was appTenticed to a printer, but he left the case for the pulpit and was for some time a Baptist minister. He next became an editor and was In crarge of various publications, in clud,ng The New Yorker, Brother Jonathan and The New World. In 1S42 he became the editor of Gra hams NIaedzlne, a Philadelphia publication. Griswold attracted to it many of the most fa nous writers of the day. Ed gar A 'Oe was then A clIlZGn or the Cit Brotherly Love, and was among -r ; contributors to Grahams Magazine. In 1850 Griswold founded the International Magazine, an am bilious publication which was after ward amalgamated with Harper s Magazine.
 In addition to his Journalistic labors, Griswold edited and compiled a num- Der of works dealing with the poets and prose writers of America and England. Griswold died in New York in 1857.

LABOR QUESTION
 vExES ENGLAND
Country Confronted By Most Serious Crisis in
 It's History.

London, Feb. 15.-Industrial ques- tions in Great Britain are making the Peace Conference and world recon strucion merely minor issues. The demands of miners and railway men, with the high cost of food and other problems of domestic reconstruction command chief attention from the newspapers, and the veteran labor leaders, William Brace and J. H. Thomas. told the House of Commons last night that the country Is con- fronted by the most serious crisis in recent history if these problems are not dealt with immediately.
 Following the. decision of the Min ers Federation to callfor strike bal lot the Federation has issued an off cial reply to the governments state- ment regarding the miners demands This document charges the govern ment with trying to turn public optn- ion against the miners and refuses to accept the data on which the govern ment based it's offer of a shilling day increase in wages.
 It says the miners demand for a thirty per cent increase, with six hOuI OdyB AS uSSlSneu LO raise lIlelI standard of living and not solely to meet the increased cost of living These points are supported by long arguments, while the demand for the naturalization of the mining indus- try is forcibly reiterated.
 The influence of Robert Smillie, the miners leader, is so great that his advice to members of the feder- ation to vote in favor of a strike is likely to be adopted unless the ten sion Is relieved during the month that the ballot is held up, pending some acceptable compromise. In the event of strike, the Mails labor expert remarks, the country may be con- fronted by a wholesale industrial disaster and such suffering among the poor as even the war failed to in- fNct"
 In the meantime, negotiations be- tween the Transport Workers Feder- ation and the employers seem to have reached an irnpasse. although a break has not yet come.

Coroner John J. Phelan Is today examining several witnesses to the death of Chritine Antonelo, the s year old girl who was struck and kill ed at Main and George streets by an automobile driven by Frank J. O'ReiIly of 620 HawIey avenue.
 From the evidence already heard It appears that the child had been riding with her father who operates jitney bus. She had left the bus and had already crossed the street when her father called a warning to look out for passing machines. Hearing her father call. she turned about and stepped into the path of O'Reilly's machine.
