/ Mutiny, and so lived TO command the
regiment in which he had once carried
a musket.
Colonel Barclay had married at the
time when he was sergeant, and his
wife, whose maiden name was Miss
! Nancy Dewey, was the daughter of a
former color-sergeant in the same
corps. There was, therefore, as can
. be imagined, some little social fric-
ton when the young couple. (for they
We're st,ll young) found themselves in
their new surroundings. They appear,
however, to have quickly adapted
themselves, and Mrs. Barclay has al

with the ladies of the regiment as her
husband was with his brother officers.

great beauty, and that even now, when

Age of Black Jersey Cow
Must Be Decided by Court
Next Week in DAMAGE Case

An interesting case will come up in
circuit court next Thursday when the
suit of Frank Black against Edward
Gentry for 500 damages come up for
trial
In October 1920, according to a com
plant filed by Frank Black at that
time, he purchased a COW of Edward
Gentry, for the sum of $50. The COW
was represented to be eight years old
and giving four gallons of milk per
day.
After he had purchasd the COW, he
asserts, he found she was only giving
one gallon per day, and was approx
mately IL years of age. He filed suit
and the case was tried in the court
of Merton w. Grills, of Jefferson town
ship where both parties to the suit re
side Justice Grills found for the de-
PENDANT. and Black, dissatisfied, sought
solace in circuit court.
Hence it will be the function of the
court, next Thursday, to decide as to
the age of one black jersey COW, and
the extent of damage suffered by the
complainant through alleged misinter-
probation of the defendant, Gentry.
Justice Grills, in his accurate sum-
ming up of the evidence following the
lTlal III MS COuI l. SOY III MS uCNIoIoh'
Or. Crimp, the careful veterinary.
cites the loss of teeth as his reason
for thinking the cow of greater age
than eight years, but he admits that
the loss of teeth is not an infallible
rule by which to judge the age of a
COW"
The court further finds that wit
nesses state a change of surroundings
and food may and always does change
the flow of milk. and that the time re-
quired for her to get back to normal
varies.
Grill decided the costs of the trial
were to be paid by Frank Black. They
amounted to $3.50.

CARPET STRIKERS RETURN.
Accept Wage Reduction at ThOmpsonvilIe
Plant

THONIPSONVILLE. Conn, April %
The prolonged strike of the 1000 EN-
plOyes of the Bigelow Hartford Carpet Co.
came to an end yesterday by the men
agreeing to accept the reduced schedule of
wages. The decision to resume work Mon
day was the result of a conference be
tween representatives of the company,
citizens and employees.
y significant feature in connection with
the attempt to resume work in the Brus-
sells department is that in notices to the
operatives the company virtually declares
for an Open-shOp basis, as it is stated that
no operatives will be employed who are
allied with other mills. This is inter
preted by the leaders of the Brussels
union as an attempt to disrupt the local
union, which is a branch of a national or
ganiZation of Brussel weaverS with head
quarters in Philadelphia. and the circum-
stances of the company's communication
already have been sent to the national
executives of the union.

Driving Out the Bosses.
50. Albans ALessenger.l

Women voters gathered in western
city at a national convention, decided to
give battle to the political bosses. They
would sweep these inside manipulatOrs
out of business They would clean house.
1t is not difficult thing to do. There
is no demand for heroes no martyrdOm is
required. All that is necessary is that
every voter perform his duties according
to the oath he takes when he assumes the
suffrage privilege.
When voters act cOnScientiOuSly, bosses
disappear. Bosses are born of the neg
lect of voters to do their duty. Bosses are
busy when the rest of lis are idle. Bosses
cannot exist unless the voters permit
them to.
So. if the women would eliminate boss
ism here is the way to do it: Go to the
polls. Vote. Take an active and intelH-
gent part in the party management. Serve
on party committees. Attend party eau
cuses and conventions. BE a part of the
party. The party will welcome you.
The same advice applies to the men. it
has been amusing whenever the men of
any state or of the union would arise in
their might and give battle to bOssism.
