MRS. JoHNsoN's s2OOOO MONUMENT
 SOLD BY RECENT PURCHASER

An out of town purchaser-said to be q New York man-has bought from George W. Carroll of Norwich the fine monument in Yantc cemetery sold to the latter last season by Mrs. Mary T. John son of Chicago. Before she left Norwich about % years ago, Mrs. Johnson pur- chased an extra large plot in Yantic cemetery at a cost of over $1,00O and had a magnificent monument erected thereon.
 The finest Westerly granite was used and the symbolical figures, Faith, Hope and Charity. which complete the monu- ruent. were of Tiffany design. It was stated at the time that the monument cost nearly $2o000. The stones were such massive blocks that when being drawn overland from the works of the New England Granite company at Westerly the truck broke down a bridge ever one Of the streams.
 No bodies have ever been buried in the lot. which is in a central location in the cemetery. On it Mrs. Johnson later had erected a beautifully carved memorial marker to her favorite son. Edwin King Johnson, who died March 7th 1904, al though the young man is buried in the Johnson family lot in Cedar Grove ceme- tcry. New London. with his father, Edwin c. Johnson, and his brother, Andrew T. Johnson.
 Having a permanent home in a fash ionahle residential section of Chicago. and deciding to be buried with her parents ir that her native. city, Mrs. Johnson sev- eral years ago determined to dispose ot the burial lot and monument in YantiC cemetery, and several Norwich real estate brokers have had the desirable pieot ot realty on their lists Two or three out of town men have inspected lot and me norial. and Supt. Aubrey W. Jarvis o1 the cemetery has noticed that it has fire quently been an ob 'ect of interest tt strangers coming by automobile anC otherwise. as it is a genuine work o art. adorned with the most ornate cary Ing
 After the monument IS removed by the new purchaser the lot will be regarded it is practically the only available plo in the entire cemetery now.

The telegram came from the president of the international union, W. S. Carter of Cleveland, and was received by A. H. Frink, the local chairman in New Lon don. It was as follows:

ating from original plan to hand down partial decision before that date. Do all you can to hold your men in line, but if they persist in taking part in illegal strikes, charges must be preferred &C., cording to the constitution"
 The international officers apparently are conscious of the feeling of impatience in the ranks at the length of time the labor board is taking to announce it's de- cision on the problems affecting the em- ployment of men on the roads, It is fear ed that this may result in sudden and unauthorized action in instituting strikes or ,walkouts, and the international off cers are determined to do what they can to avert such action.

 eyes do not water any more. At night they would pain dreadfully; now they
 feel fine all the time. It was like a says: The atmosphere seemed hazy with or without glasses. but after using this prescription for fifteen days
