This was not accomplished, however, until af- ter Judge Blakeman of the Town court, had protested, on the lines that he had so long belonged to the old church that he hated to see the par ish go contrary ito the state law. His sentiments were seconded by George Carey, but evidently the congregatio on as a whole felt different about the matter for the vote taken shortly af- ter showed the sentiment to be abou wo to one in favor of he daylight saving plan. Rev. R. O. Whitehead acted as election judge.

 Because of the fact that the Iegfsla- ture has enacted a law making stand ard time the legal time for the state there has been no turning ahead or official clocks. such as those as in municipal offices. schools and that on the tower of the old State House But even under the dome of the capitol, under the very eyes of the leg1Slators who have placed Hartford in the ra nls of the revolutionists, the day light saving plan is in effect Several of the state offices there began on the new schedule today and others Will follow.
 The resolution declaring Hartford in rebellion was offered in heated address by representatives Wads- worth of Pennington one day last week and was tabled for printing. It is likely to come up for further a ction any time. What the rural members will do it remains to De seen. They hold. however, the dorn- mating vote in the House.
 The bill was offered following the suggestion of Mayor Brainard or Hartford that the city go on daylight saving time and that individuals set hteir clocks ahead. The common Council had previously adopted oay- light saving:

CHAPTER XIV.

The following morning Webster in
formed Dolores fully of his interview
with her brother and his cOnfreres the
night before, concealing from her only
the fact that he was financing the
revolution and his reasons for financ-
ing it. He was still depressed, and
Dolores, observing his mood, forbore
to intrude upon it. Accordingly she
claimed the prerogative of her sex
a slight headache-and retreated to
her room, in the privacy of which she
was suddenly very much surprised to
find herself weeping softly because
John Stuart Webster was unhappy
and didn't deserve to be.
1t was impossible, however, for
Webster long to remain imperviOus to
the note of righteousness underlying
the forthcoming tragic events. Here
was a little 2x4 pOverty-stricken hot
bed Of ignorance and intrigue calling
itself a republic, a little stretch of
country no larger than couple of
big western counties, about to indulge
in the national pastime of civil war
and unable TO do it except by grace
of an humble citizen of a sister re-

"By all means"
Webster shook hands with the trio
and departed for his hotel. For the
first time in many years he was heavy
of heart, crushed. "Neddy Jerome
was right" he solilOquized. "This is
the last place on earth for me to have
come to. I've made Neddy sore on
me, and he's lost patience and put an
other man in the job he promised me /;
I've raised Billy's hopes sky-high and
had to bet $4,000 to keep them there /;
I've been fool enough to fall in love

can do now is to go out next Sunday
