SUIT FOR S1O,OOO IS ON TRIAL

probate court, and the mere fact that he resided in New London county, he thought that the a1urt had no juris- diction in the case.
 Attorney Frank L. McGuire, repre- senting the plaintiff. declared that there was no question about the law in the matter He stated that in a transitory action, the law provided that either the plaintiff or the defendant could reside in the county. In this. case, the plaintiff is a resident of New London county and ju'e esdictiion is not effected by the fact the distributes of the estate live else where. The legal title rested in the ad- rinistrator and inasmuch as he is res ident of the county the case is within the jurisdiction of the superioir court of New London county.
 Judge Banks denied the motion of the defendant. holding that the case was within the jurisdiction Cf New London and the trial was started.
 Harry T. Griswold of firm of New London architects was called to the stand as the first witness and he explained a map of the scene of the accident and de- scribed the highway, location of the houses and other places near the scene of the fatality The witness testified that he made the map Monday
 Dr. Irwin Granniss of Old Saybrook testified that he remembered the fact that the Way boy was brought to his office after the! automobile accident but that he was not in his office at the time. When he arrived a short time afterwards the Way boy was dead and MT. Hunt and the Hall boy were with the body The physician was unable td state what the injuries were which caused the boys death but Attorneys Mcclure and Chase agreed that Dr Granniss might telephone a description of the injuries for admission as evi- dence.
 George K. Crandall, civil engineer o1 New London, was called to the stand as 8 | witness for the defense and he also de scribed a map of the highway and the | scene of the acident.

PROTECTION BY COMPULSORY
 INSURANCE ON AUTOMOBILE

States are rapidly following the lead" in taking up the matter of legislation to compel those who own automobiles to put it beyond peradventure that those whom they hurt and for those hurt they are to blame shall receive some sort of financial comrensation. or if death oc- CUTS, a reasonable amount shall be col lectible It is being found altogether too often that the, owner or driver respoh sible for bad accident hasn't dollar to his name; sometimes when he has the doi- lar, that is all that his wife and children have to depend upon. Wita pathetic fre- | quency, the victim of the accident is someone who cannot afford the doctor s bills and the loss of time, or someone whose family are made indigent by the disability or death of the 5rtadwinner. | It has been gay trick for a man to 1 hook all he possesses and go and buy one leg on an automobile. Figures reveal that he IS just the kind of a citizen who will inaim or kill someone, and there's no possibility of compensation.
 | The argument in New York, Pennsyl- vania and other states where he subject l is before the legislatures is that the pup- 1 lie must protect itself from that sort of people This implies hardship for the eau tious and considerate, yet they need the protection against the reckless as much as anyone else. Probably 95 per tent. of all wise car owners today carry insur- ance that will compensate. and that. too /; without burden other than the premium
 They are not objecting to a decent kind of law with the spirit cf which they al
 ready have shown they are in accord | It is argued that if those who object on 1 account of premium expense are wiped
 off the list of car owners, the general public will be much safer.
 | The New York law would require tna' insurance he taken out. before license ;s
 granted and the car registered. The in
 surance would be similar 10 workingmsn'I compensation. It would cover redic;, attention. including hospital bills; if dis
 ability were equal to two-thirds of thu victims earning power, there would 1
 weekly payments from $S up to S20. De tails are not yet perfected
 A victim may exercise nls right to brin;
 action for damages. in which event h
 forfeits the compensation. He canro
 have both returns nor yet take chances cl
 getting both. It is estimated that the cx lpense of this insuraD:e would add a5Cu
 75 per cent. to the present cost of auto
 mobile liability insurance.

Edwin S. Hunt of Essex, owner of an automobile, is the defendant in suit brought against him for $10,000 dam ages for the death of Frederick Mur- ray Way, minor, in an automobile ac- cident at Old Saybrook. Trial of the suit was begun before Judge John W. Banks and a jury in the superior court at New London, Tuesday morning. The plaintiff is Henry H.

 The plaintiff alleges that the automobile was unlawfully driven by Frederick H Hall, boy of Is years old or less, and that he was incompetent and an mex perienced driver that he was driving the machine recklessly, negligertly and care lessly and at high rate of speed ceived injuries from which he died with
 
 The defence makes a general denial of the charges of the complaint.

POETRY

THE MAN CAME TO THE MOUNTAIN. The man came to the mountain In the greenest hour Of Spring; He strumfned his heart for q ban5os
 And he began 10 sing. 70 vast and stolid mother,
 Paralytic and dumb. Give ear unto my singing,
 Fot your song could not come "Until by brain awakened. q Until my tongue grew flame And my song now was your song.
 Since out of you came 70 stopped. decrepit mother
 Long you gave barren birth To iameless trees and blossom,
 To mindless beasts Of earth. Then from your brown womb uttered
 A word lettered in fire Eyes for your eyeless darkness,
 Tongue for your locked desire. The word was man. You plagued him
 With tempests black and wild. With cold and heat and hunger;
 For such things plague child. You bound him slave to dumb thingA
 rod, coin, crown- But nov, his sDIrit wakens
 To laugh the dumb gods down; And now his spirit toughens To jeer the cold and heat. To take your very temDests As bread for him, and meat; AS drink to yet his palate, | As food 10 build him strong | And of your plaques he fashioDg Your own uHuttored song. Take, then. his word for your word; ] For this his tongue must be i The voice nf your unspOkeD 1 Unyielding liberty. ." The mountain shook with anguish At sight of his broken chaine: | She gave her heart for banjo, Strung with her iron veins. She hurled away in fury The roG. the coin. the crown. | Age slipped from her wakeneB shoulders
 Like a garment rumDling down. .. The hills ieapt like Bacchantes.
 With green dishevelled hair. Until they came to the singer.
 And sang around him there l Man in whom God is living | Blossom beyond all plan For God once slept in the mountains,
 But now he grows in Man
 Man whose insatiate vision T~ | Pierces the furthest haze. And makes sport and plaything | Of us. ancient of days
 Sing. till the crown be rusted |.
 And the rod be decayed.
 And all gnid be forgotten
 With all the pain it made.
 Sing till the ior of singing
 Is life's first word and last;
 And life is a singing sunset
 Out of a singing past
 Take YOU our word and sing it: | Proclaim. cur liberty.
 Till that which is is altered
 To the rapture that will be" | Clement Wood. in Boston Transcript
