WATERBURY,
Funeral of Mrs. Mark Eastman Held
Yesterday--Burial in Washington.

The funeral of Mrs. Mark Eastman
was held from her late home yester-
day morning, Rev j. Garfield Sails of
the Center officiating. There were
beautiful floral tributes and the house
was well filled. There was a large rep
resentation from Dillingham; grange
and the employees of the Demeritt com.
pany attended. The bearers were Ar
thur Eastman, Gene Eastman, Harry
Burnor and David Caldwell. Burial
was in Washington, whence the re-
mains were taken by auto hearse, ac-
eompanied by several in cars The aw-
fulness of the accident does not lessen
as days pass. A hard working woman
coming home from work, carrying her
dinner pail, oil can and umbrella, was
struck while on the sidewalk, exactly
where any pedestrian coming that way
should be, and received injuries which
resulted in her death. This was done,
according to the driver of the car, be-
cause of his determination not to hit
the boys on the bicyeles--the last one,
Victor Dalton, receiving slight injuries.
Mr. Varnum, il is said, did not see the
woman until he alighted to see the
damage to his car and found the WON
an under the car In the communi-
ty he is receiving both sympathy and
censure. All that was in his power
was done after the accident and many
are expressing much sympathy for
him. For sometime lay, under the ma
pie tree, with broken glass from the
car, the oil can, which was completely
fattened. The telephone pole, which
shows strongly the place of contact,
stands and much measuring has been
done at the scene of the accident

LONDON, Aug. 27.-The red terror
of reprisal and counter reprisal by
fire continues unabated in Ireland. To-
day it was the Sim Feiners who
struck. In Dundalk two girls and a
boy, assistants in a milliner's shop
were burned to death in flames which
destroyed the building. 1t is alleged
that the premises were sprinkled with
petrol and bombs thrown in to ignite
it.
The fire started in the early hours of
the morning. Ten of the thirteen as
sistants employed in the millinery
shop, asleep on the top floor, escaped
while the first story was a mass of
flames. The Ulster Bank also was de-
stroyed by flames. The fires were set
in reprisal for the series of outraees
committed by Unionist mobs against
the Catholics of Belfast and Lisburn.
Another Red Night
Belfast lived through another red
night. Thirty-fiv houses and shops
belonging to Catholics were burned,
one Unionist rioter was shot dead by
the troops who were trying to restore
order, and between twenty and thirty
persons were taken to hospitals with
bullet wounds. One man was serious
ly wounded by bayonet thrust and
two officers were injured.
The damages inflicted by the rioters
last night were more extensive than
any caused by mobs this year. The
fire brigade had forty fires to combat
and its work frequently was inter
fered with when Unionists stoned the
fire fighters.
The burning, looting and shooting
which began Wednesday lasted until
early to-day.
A police constable was shot dead
from ambush at Knockgroghery, in
Athlone, to-day. This is the tenth
murder of this Hpe within a fort
night.
MacSweney Still Conscious
The condition of Terence Mac
Sweeney, Lord Mayor of Cork, who to-
day passed the sixteenth day of his
hunger strike in Brixton Prison,
leads to the belief tonight that
death is only a matter of hours, al
though he is still conscious.
All appeals to King George, which
at first it was believed might be sue
cessful, are now referred to the Home
Secretary, who said again to-day:

postpone the sweeping and do q little

When he turned his attention to this
task in earnest he was astonished at
the way money had sprouted about
the stable floor during the night. His
pockets were bulging when he reached
a side door, and still the money trail
led on across a courtyard.
The diligent stableman followed it
until he brought up at the door of the
ccmpany's Office. Raising his eyes he
saw that the door had been jmmied.
He notified the officials of the company.

Victory at Water Polo

ANTWERP. Aug. 27 (By The Asso-
ciated Press) The "booing" of the
British national anthem at the con-
clusion of this afternoons water polo
match, in which England won hard
and close fought game from the Bel
gian team, resulted in the British rep
resentatives calling a meeting Of the
representatives of all the nations COM
peting in the Olympic games this eve
ming.
At the meeting a protest was made
over what was termed a national in
suit" and it brought promise Of the
publication In to-morrow's official pro-
gram and in the Antwerp newspapers
of an apology for the action Of the
spectators.
The incident occurred at the
conclusion Of what was virtually
the gala day of the Olympic swimming
competitions. The Belgian Princess
Marie Jose occupied the royal box.
The feelings Of the spectators were
manifest early in the contest, when
gian team by the Swedish referee oc-
casioned prolonged "booing" from the
Belgian supporters.
The Princess was leaving the royal
box amid the cheering of those in the
nearby sections of the grandstsnd just
as the Union Jack proclaiming the Eng
lish victory was being run up and the
band was playing "God Save the King
Those who saw the Princess continued
their cheering until she entered her
motor car, but q majority Of the thou:
sands present. ignoring the attempts OF
the Belgian officials to quiet the dem
onstration, "booed" and Kissed even for
few minutes after the band had
finished the anthem.

PARIS, Aug. II (By The Associated d
Press).-The Poles continue to advance
along the East Prussian frontier. Not
withstanding all their efforts, the Red
command has failed to instill in the
Bolshevik troops enough courage or
energy to resist the Poles, who, after
few hours Of almost desultory fight
ing, took possession of the Ossovetz
forts, opened a passage across the
bobr marshes and reached the Angus
'owo lakes, east of the East Prussian
frontier, thus gaining command of the
whole of the southern side of that
frontier as far as Augustowo.
The Reds. driven back on the line of
Augustowo- Grodno, are in q GOOD de-
tenslve position, on account of the
forests and marshes which cover it.
consequently it is difficult for the
Poles to attack frontally, owing to the
nature of the ground and the fact that
the TANKS of the enemy rest on the
west on the German frontier and on
the east on the Niemen River. The
SOVIET forces are concentrating in this
Tegion win the object of stopping the
Poles from extending their line east
yard for this purpose. The Augustowo
Grodno line constitutes a flank posi
