Show spanish War Views.

The weekly noon meeting under Y. M. c. A. auspices was held Wednes- day at the West Side Silk Mill. Twen- ty-five slides of the Spanish war were shown by the stereopticon. and these held the close attention of the large number cf operatives present. After the showing of the slices, Secretary Hill gave a brief address, and amonf: other things said "We have been looking upon pictures si.ow.ng the terrible battles of the Spanish war, but we need to remember that there are other battles raging in the world There is the battle to put down Bol- shevism. and this is battle royal be- tween the good and the bad in so- ciety; there is the battle between la bor and capital which is being set tied. Then there is the battle that rages in the individual heart of ever7' man and woman; the battle betwcA the evil and the good: between God and the devil. and there is no battle more fierce than this one: the evil influences leading us down and the good forces entreating us to live the true life. We all have temptation, and there is a strong tendency to sin, but it has always been true. that if we but call on Almighty God to help us. the victory will surely be ours. and if we are true to the teachings of our King, we will. one day be re- warded for being faithful to Him. The meeting closed with the singing of two popular songs.

The abdication of MT. NcAdoo is almost as startling as that of the Kaiser. and much less expected. Out side the President, MT. McAdoo has been the most influential man in the American government. Friends and foes alike. willingly admit that "Mc- Adoo Is a wonder" The President undoubtedly was right when he wrote in his letter accepting the resignation, that Mr. McAdoo was the greatest Secretary of Treasury in history. On the face of the correspondence, and for the information of the public, MT. NcAdoo gave up his place in Wash tngton in order to '.recoup his personal fortunes" When a man has the strings to pull that will down hun dred thousand dollars year as against a salary of ten thousand for looking after the biggest administra- tive job in Washington. it is not strange that in his grandfather days, coupled with the possession of a beautiful and wonderful young wife and a comparatively new baby, that the mind should turn to the problem of laying by nest eggs as against the days of "sans eyes. sans teeth, etc. Mir.

 The probability the Colonel House, MT. McAdoo, and some of the Cabinet members oppose government owner ship, shows that the Democratic party IS not likely to become committed in it's entirely to government ownership. On the other side of the political arena stands the Republican organization, made up almost entirely of opponents of government ownership.
 The great economic and industrial issues involved in government owner ship do not lend themselves readily to partisan political juggling, and when men like MT. McAdco quit, there are grounds to believe that the Demo- cratic party will not swallow the new doctrine, hook, sinker and bobber without pretty careful amount of in- vestigatton ef the halt.

NO WoRkMEN's COMPENSATION
 FOR MYSTIC MANS WIDOW

Nicholas Duerr, a teamster of Mys- tic, died from myocarditis and sclero- sis and not from a fractured skull sustained while at hs employment is the finding made by Commissioner J. J. Donohue' in the Workmen's compen- sation clam made by Mrs. Katherine Duerr, the widow. He was employed by the Standard Machinery Co. and it is found that his widow is. the only dependant. although he has eight children, ranging in age from 30 to 13 years
 In denying the widows claim for worlmen's compensation for her hus- bands death, Commissioner Donohue's finding says:
 h regard to the manner in which the decedent met death, I think it is very well brought out in the coroner's finding. The decedent was a man about 68 years old, employed by the respondent company for a good many years as a driver and on the 17th of November 1919, he died in the town of Stonington from chronic myocardi- tis and sclerosis of the coronary ar teries, accord ng to the report of the medical examiner.
 It is found that Duerr was carting seaweed from NIason's Island on the day mentioned. He had loaded his cart and was drawing along the cart path sitting on the front of the cart. He was seen to fall from the cart and later on his body was found lying beside the read. There was a mark upon his head as. though it might have been struck by the cart wheel. His right cheek bone was fractured
 An autopsy was. made by Medical Examiner Gray, assisted by pr. Still man, and in the opinion of these men Duerrs death was caused by the con- dition of his arteries, technically known as myocarditis and sclerosjs of the arteries. There was no fracture of the skull. From the testimony of the medical examiner and Dr. Allyn, who assisted at the autopsy, it ap- pears conclusively that Duerr's death was caused by the conditions which 1 were found at the autopsy, and that his death was not due to an injury
 arising out of and in the course of his employment.
