AS referred to Mr.. Williams attack
upon C. c. Glover. president of the
Riggs Bank, who Mr.. Hogan termed
the grand old man of the capital,
recognized as Washington's foremost
citizen since the death of the lament

He said that Mr.. Glover's work for
the capital had been widely recog-
nized and that it had been suggested
frequently that Potomac Park be

creation. Mr.. Hogan also gave Mr..
Glover credit in large part for the
Aldrich- Vreeland and emergency cur
rency act, which, he declared, was
Of great value in stabilzing condi-
tions in the United States in 1914.

munity had been made by Mr.. Tn

Cites danger of Firebrands. y

1.-THE President has already played
with. firebrands sufficiently to have in
formed him of the danger. He has
yoked himself up with revolutionaries
so frequently as to know he cannot
check their mad race to the goal of
lawlessness. His open declaration
that he proposes to convene on Ameri-
can soil radicals as well as others
from foreign governments is a procla-
nation Of lawiessness and contempt
uous disregard of the United States
government. Again we have one who
declared I am the state Have the
American people quit electing Presi-
dents and begun to elect kings? Pub
lie ofYicials have been impeached for
less fragrant violation of the laws of
their country than this"

 Mrs. Mary Hausman of 404 Eas1 Sand street said that the high cost ot beer was what had been her hus- bands undoing. For years and years she said, William had been the dand- fest little hubby in the world, solaced by a drink now and then of the per cent. beer dispensed at the corner cafe Lately. however.

DEVON

Members of the Deven Hose com pany will attend the Memorial exer- cises to be held next Sunday after noon under the auspices of the Arctic Enging company, No. 1. The ex- ercises will be held at the center and will consist in the decoration of the graves of deceased members of the fire department in the Milford and St. Mary's cemeteries. The Devon f1remen will be accompanied by the Fife and Drum Corps and all the oth- CT fire companies in the town.
 Next Thursday evening the Hose company will attend an efficiency ex- hibition to be staged by the Arctic Engine company No. 1. The ex- when several teams chosen from the Arctic company will compete for supremacy in handling the new Sea- grave combination pump which has recently been added to the equip ment.
 About 25 holders of concessions at Walnut Beach have applied to the State Police for permission to do business on Sunday. Under the new law as construed by Judge Wolfe in the New Haven courts, the state has eSCIuS1Ne O1er the amusements at the shore resorts and the local police cannot compel the closing of any place that has a. state permit.
 That part of Naugatuck avenue between Bridgeport avenue and the creek, is to be paved with Annette and the Connecticut Co. has already begun to place its tracks in the cen ter of the road. The contract has been awarded to a Meriden company and work will start within two weeks and must be finished in fifty days. As the Connecticut Go. claim that they are financially unable to lay the pavement between the tarcks, it is believed at present the part of the road occupied by the tracks will not be paved. At the same time a. piece of road between Walnut and Myrtle Beaches will also be paved with the same material by the same company.
 These pavements with a small stretch on Seaside avenue, Fort Trum- bull Beach, will be done and paid for out of the appropriation of SIS, 900 which the town now has on hand for construction work.
 pieces of road are complete the S5O,- 900 recommended by the Board of Finance will be available.

After indulging a bit in a brand of

Hausman homemade berry juice on Wednesday night, Mrs. Hausman said, he returned from the cupboard in such a terrible state that he be- came abusive and followed it up with actual physical violence. He hit her on the eye. Mrs. Hausman said. knocking her to the floor. Mrs. Hausman then went out and called a policeman.
 Magistrate Groehl made no com ment on the case when Mrs. Haus- man had finished her side. He pro- nounced sentence and sat back in his chair with what some persons In the court room thought was a sigh of profound regret. His intent, no doubt. was not to probe the suspect ed evils of home brews.

"Old earth eludes plot Of bolshevist
planets and goes merrily on says. the
st. Paul Dispatch. OF course this was
just as commonsense people expected,
but a few nuts" committed suicide
throughout the country in consequence
Of the prediction Of Professor Porta
Of Michigan university that the world
would come to an end Jon December ~.
The professor, it seems to us, should
be incarcerated in lunatic asylum.
Predictions Of this sort, widely adver-
tised, invariably impel some weak
minded people TO commit suicide. The
prophecy Of Porta was that the world
be rent asunder on December II and,
as he is an astronomer of repute, a
great many people took cogntzance of
his prediction. This is not the first
time that weak-minded people have
taken their lives in consequence of the
prophecies of so-called scientists, but
the people of this old world should
lose no sleep on such predictions, for
the celestial laws will never permit
the earth to be bumped into by any Of
the planets. Rest easily, brethren.

Oldest National Emblem.

81 Few people realize that the United
States flag is the oldest existing ma
tional emblem Of its kind. This, how
ever, is true.
The Stars and Stripes were adopted
June IA, 1777.
Other countries adopted the use of
the flag afterwards: France, 170l;
Great Britain, 1901; Spain, 1885; Nor
way and Sweden, 1877; Italy, 1s4s;
Portugal, 1916; Belgium, 1881; Ger
many. 1870. More countries have en-
ployed this custom still more recently:
In times Of peace the flag should
not, according to correct usage, be per-
mitted to, fly all night, except at the
grave Of the author Of The Star Span
gled Banner" Francis Scott Key.
However, under recent ruling Of the
war department, the American flag
may float at night, provided it is for
patriotic purposes.
The significance Of the colors in the
flag, as given by the continental con-
Igress, is that the red indicates hardi-
ness and valor, white purity, and blue
watchfulness, and justice.

Attorney General Palmer the "big
five" have promised to relinquish
within two years their ownership and
control of stockyards and terminal
railroads, cease the packing and mar
keting of fish, fruits and other foods
with the exception Of meat, it's by
products, poultry, eggs, cheese and
condensed milk. This pact is in the
form of compromise between the, at
torney general (himself) and the
packers, in lieu Of prosecution under
the Sherman law upon evidence in the
hands of a grand jury, and congress
will now investigate Palmer's deal. If
the grand jury holds sufficient evil
dence to convict, which is highly prob
able, there should be no compromise
the packers should have been
brought to trial. Under what law, we
would like to know, has the attorney
general the right to enter into com
promise with persons charged with
fragrant violation of the Sherman anti
trust act? His action savors largely
Of playing into the hands of the pack
ers' combine. However, later report
says that the national trade commits
sion is ready to proceed against the
packers for more than 40 violations
of the Clayton antitrust act.
