MRS. JACOBS SUES HUSBAND
 FOR S1oO,OOO FOR ISLANDER

Because her husband accused her of criminal. conduct with her chauffeur, Mrs, Gladys W. Jacobs of Hartford and Ocean Beach has sued, her hus- band. Raymond B. Jacobs, for s100. 900 damages on the ground of defamation of character, and attachments for cobs interest in the estate of his fla ther the late Arthur l. Jacobs
 The Jacobs divorce suit is still pend ing in the superior court, as Jud ge Haines has been bcset with motions, counter motions. remonstrances and demurrers after the report of John w. iCoogan the committee. had been re- turned to court. Mrs. Jacobs brought ground of into1erable cruelty and ask ed aIimony.
 MT. Jacobs retained counsel and af- ter denying Mrs. Jacobs complaint on Nov. 29, 1918, he filed cross com plaint charging Mrs. Jacobs with criminal conduct at West Hartford and al Neptune Park. New London, with John Hines.
 In his report Mr. Coogan found that Mrs. Jacobs had proved her charge against her husband and was entitled to s40.0o0 alimony if a decree. was granted. He also found that MT. Jacobs charges against his wife were
 The acceptance of MT Coogan's re- port by the court has been hotly con- tested by the defense on the ground that it was against the evidence,
 Mrs. Jacobs in her $100, 900 suit says that the publication by her husband of the. charge against her was false and malicious and that at the time the false and malicious words were charged by the defendant against the plaintiff there was no existence of probable or reasonable cause for the same, and they were made with mali cious intent and for the purpose. and no other purpose, than to humiliate the plaintiff and ifljure and ruin her in the community in which she resides. ~t--+

oMNiPREsENcE OF GOD
 CATHOLIC PREACHER'S THEME

Beginning the summer schedule Sunday at St. Patrick's church Rev. MyIes P. Calvin. who read the low mass at 10.30. was the preacher also, his theme being the omnfpresence of God.
 What this means is explained very simply in the little catechisrn which every Catholic child studies and which says God is everywhere" knowledge cannot understand; but in humility we can believe what we are taught in holy scriptures. that heaven is Gods throne and the earth is His eootstoo1.
 We know that God is in the heavens by reason of His power and majesty, that He is in the earth through His providence. giving life to man and the means to maintain that life, He is in hell through His justices as part. of the punishment of sinners who have failed to do His will. Gods essence is ev anywhere. f
 The fact of His presence should prove the encoura cement of the just man, seeking ever to obey his Crea- tors command. and conscious that his every act and motive. is known ito Omniscience; it should be a cheek in would hesitate to do wrong in the presence of his parents. or through humiliation in the sight of the world must feel even a greater hesitation when conscious that he is in the pres ence of the Searcher of Souls.
 The force and efficacy of the com mand Walk perfect in My sight" was the concluding thought of the practi- cal sermon.

AUTOS DIsPl AGE MORE THAN
 16sr srpn AcRSEe iN STnTf

More than 16 900 horses in Connecti- cut were displaced by motor vehicles in the past decade. it was seen by fig ures obtained at the capitol Statistics sioner William H. Ecfbin revealed that the horse population of the state dropped from 75.IT9 in 1908 to 59.fs7 last year. while. records of the motor vehicle department showed that the number of horseless vehicles mean : while leaped from 1896 to 95.65e. Five automobiles appeared for every horse removed.
 In the face of this reduction in horses, Cattle Commissioner James M. Whittiesey produced reports Of 536 more draft equines imported into Con necticut last year than in the previous year. indicating to him that the drop in. horse popula ton represented, prac- ticaify the elimination of driving horses with only slight changes in the number Of draft and farm horses due to. the introduction of motor trac- tors and farm tractors. Mules are classified with horses throughout.
 The growing popularity Of the auto mobile since the beginning of the stated decade, when less than. one twelfth the present number Of motor. vehicles had appeared. was accompan- jed by an increase in the average. as sessed value of a horse from $59 to STE,
 With last years figures inserted in
 
 be heard from the approximate num- Der of horses in the state today, re corded for taxation purposes, is 59,737. This is exactly 16,042 less than shown in the same books ten years ago, and 3,740 less than the horses registsred a year ago. While the decline in horses was greater for the past five years than previously, the average number annually displaced since 1908 is about 1,600.- This is ascribed to the fact that automatic devices are constantly be- ing invented to take the place of horses, but the belief was expressed domestic animals that the equine pop ulation had nearly reached it's mini mum. Hartford county. with 13.035, leads in the number of horses used, having twice the number of some counties, and four times the number SOFA in Middiesex county. There. are 10,6S4 in New Haven county, 5,S97 in} New London. 3.529 in Holland, 9.993 in. Fairfield, S.S54 in Litchfield and A., T21 in Windham counties.
 A decrease in single year of 1,008 cattle imported into Connecticut for dairy and breeding purposes was talk en by Commissioner Whittlesey to in dicate a revival here in breeding for dairy purposes and that this industry is more profitable to Connecticut far mers than raising beef cattle. Tt isl evident" he said, that Connecticut is becoming more se1f-supporting in the Qdlfy ana preceding 1nuuSIry- G1SuTeS completed in his department showed that while 1869 cattle were imported in 1917 for dairy and breeding pur- poses there were only 3.Se1 last year. The number of horses and mules i'm ported was 4,936 in 1917 compared with ,472 in 1918 and the number of cattle imported for slaughter in 1917 was 8, 571 as against 9.913 last year.

GIVES TALK ON "THE OLD
 SAINT AND NEW SINNER"

Three large tables were occupied by U. S. sailors. at the Sunday breakfast at the Y. NJ. c A, and the boys thor oughly enjoyed the morning home cooked meal which was served by the "Y' ladies, and this gave the home touch.
 The men listened with much interest to a brief address by Rev. c. L. Ken agy,~ assistant pastor of the Central Baptist church. The speaker said in part:
 I want to talk to you today on ''The Old Saint and the New Sinner" First, the old saint. What sort of a chap was he2 Well. fellows. so far re- Iigion was concerned, he led the league in his day. but he couldn't get a job as third assistant bat boy in class D minor league today He batted around the thousand mark. but he couldn't get a scratch hit during an entire season as we play the game today.
 They called him a saint, and he was, according to the way they understood religion, but he would not be admit ted to membership in any of the churches of our city today. He would not be fit for membership.
 l shall not say anything about his morality. as standards have changed, and I don't want to be unfair. He would, however, be considered quite immoral today.
 I call him a has been who can never come back simply because of the way in which he played the game. He was individualistic and extremely sel- fish: There was no team work in his play.
 He, pulled away from the toiling, suffering world where good men and bad men lived, where God was. and lived a secluded life in. the wilderness He refused to assume any responsi- bility no matter what difficult prob lems the great social world had to solve. He was the original conscien- tious objector. If he were living today he would not give one cent toward the support of welfare orga aniZations like the Y M. c. A He would not have done his bit in the war. and would have had no boys to go. for he also re- fused to assume family responsibiIi- ties. E.
 Yet he was supposed to be playing the game according to the rules.
 But the Master never taught that we are to shun the world any more than he taught that we are to submit to the world and become slaves to the world. He taught that the world is neither very good nor very bad. We are to make a choice. To find the good and help make = the world a better place in which to live.
 The potter is not to shun the clay hands. He is to shape it into all the forms of beauty within the clay So We are to take the unshapely things of the world and mould them into shapes of beauty.
 Some people shun the slums of our cities, but other people go there and shape the life of those places into things of beauty.
 That is what we did in the world

VICTORY NOTES NOT TO LOWER
 IN PAR VALUE
New Issue Has Special Appea to All Investors,
 Says Expert.

"Capitalists, as well as the small in vestor, may purchase the new Victor! Loan notes with the fullest assurance that they will hold in the market clost to the issue price" declared G. K Weeks, Victory Loan campaign man ager for the Twelfth District, today in calling attention to the strong ap peal the Victory notes make to invest .urs strictly from an investment stand point. He continued!
 'fIt has, of course, been source oi disappointment to subscribers for pre- vious Liberty Loan issues that these issues have gone, even temporarily, te a discount of five or six points in the market.
 While this does not represent real loss to those who have held their bonds for investment, it is reassuring to sub scribers for Victory notes that no such discount is possible in the case of the present issue.
 "DIscount Impossible"
 "A decline of the Victory Loan notes of only one point, to 99 for example would put them on an interest return of 5.039o. Even during the war, with the prospect of continued large issues no Liberty Bonds have ever declined tc any such basis. The Fourth Loan bonds today, as a matter of fact, are selling to yield less than the 4%%t paid by the Victory notes at par.
 '.A similar situation exists in the ease of the series of 8%96 fully tax exempt notes which are suitable fol the larger investors. The first issue of the fully tax-exempt Liberty Bonds bearing 31k96 interest, in spite of all the liquidation during the war, are selling today to yield only 3.558o.
 Should the Victory Loan 3%% notes decline to 99, this would bt equivalent to 4.089o return from its fully tax-exempt note, which would be equivalent to 91 for the Liberty Loan 31as which now are in active demand in the market at 99."
