MASC0TS THAT WERE USEFUL
British Regiment Adopted Two Cows,

During their march through London
a short time ago the Second Scots
Guards were accompanied by two cows

They were originally acquired BY

Belgium, and remained with the bat

one day their keeper. being behind the
battalion and somewhat merry, dis
posed Of the animals to farmer IN
exchange for trihing sum.
When their loss was discovered
there was a great uprOar. and the
keeper was punished by being sent
back some thirty miles to repurchase
the cows and bring them back to the
battalion again.
1t was found that the cows became
very tame when they were on the

EMERALDs READY TO MEET
 ALL COMERS IN STATE

| The Emeralds of Willimantic, one of the fastest teams in the state last season, are in the field again, ready to meet all corners, with a reputation. The boys are practicing hard for the opening game at the Valley street armory Nov. 18th. The same lineup which made such a record last season, will again uphold the Green and White. Capt. Higgins will again fill the center position, with Chief Larsen, Tommy Pickett and Jack Kierns at guard. Normandin, who proved to be one of the best forwards in the state last season, will again show his speed, side of Joe Belair, the pride of Taftville. Belair, who is no stranger in eastern Connecticut, signed up with the Elm erald last season and in the games played made a big improvement on the team. Joe, who has many followers, should have a big season with the Elm eraIds, and with Normandin as his partner should make a pair of for wards hard to beat.
 The management is desirous of booking only fast teams and will con- slider and reply. Games to be played at home every Friday night and book ings have already been made fer classy exhibitions away from home. Any
 team wanting games write to Michael
 D. Mccarthy, manager, Railroad street, Willimantic.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE RATES.
CHICAGO GRAIN MARKrr

Chicago, Nov. 5.-Aclrte depression cs foreign exchanges had bearish Influence today on the wheat market Prices closed unsettled l t4 cents to s-4 cents net lower, with December 1ss to 1s8 1-4 and March 1s3 to 1sa 1-2. Corn finished at Is cents decline to 7-s cents advance, and oats lost s-8 to 3-4 cents. In provisions, the outcome varied from setback of f5 to rise of 25 cents
 General selling on the part of com mission houses took place in the wheat pit, and no doubt was expressed but that the principal immediate reason was the tumble of francs to the lowest stnce lavst May and severe breaks which haA e. cured in other European excA4agoa. Va rious aspects of the domestic inAsaysrfal situation tended further to weaken values Subsequently, indication that export in terests had been buyers on the decline isss to a rally, but the effect failed to Anat. although receipts were not larss xnS country offerings were regarded as small In Chicago. the arrivals totaieA only 1e cars.
 Corn was relatively strong owing to meagerness of stocks available for de livery on December contracts here. Oats traders took their cue from the downturn of wheat and ignored the corn bulge.
 Provisions lacked support, despite thu higher quotations on hogs.
