 Alderman Hosan's chief criticism was that the party had failed to keep its patronage pledge He said that he was not opposed to MT. Cornell or Mayor Akwater cn personal grounds but only politically. He de clared that the patronage method was wrong.
 William Moran, executive board member, said that the patronage pledge for the Sixth district had been kept and read a list of places filled by members of the club. The show of hands endorsing the town chairman was a decided majority.
 Cornell Endorsed.
 At a meeting of the Second District Democratic club held last night with dorsed. The program of Mayor At water was also endorsed. An invita- ton to the town chairman to speak before the club next Thursday was fo Mr.
 MT. Cornell in a fiery speech be- fore the Third District Democratic club after he had finished the Sixth, reiterated what he said before the members of the North End club. He scored the insurgent movement and declared that it was an attempt to put dirty politics where there now he would never retire from the posi- ton of town chairman while under fire and turn the party. which had been victorious for the first time in ten years, over to the rebel forces. Duty To Mayor. He upheld Mayor Atwater and said he would support him whole heart edly. He said:
 Ut is our duty to support the mayor in all of his policies, because they are policies which spring from an honest desire to do that which is best for the public needs at this time. In this lies the prophecy of Democracy in Bridgeport. If the party is not big enough to take this broad view and adhere to it, it must take the conse- quences, and these consequences will be dire and calamitous. For myself, arr irreVOcably committed to these convictions, and will adhere to them to the end.

Must Do
 More Business
 With the World

London, July 21. - As nation of shopkeepers'' Britain perceives that she stands in need or increasing greatly her business with the world generally. Many men have malntaln- n ed she could best learn how to do this from America. and not few are arguing that she can become as prosperous as America only by adopt ing the American fiscal policy of pro- tection-
 But this is not the view held by the Right Honorable L. C. M. s. Amery, M. P. parliamentary secretary to the Admiralty. He believes much can be learned from America, but that the great lesson is not protection.
 'fThe most marvellous economic phenomena of the last century is the growth of the United States" writes Mr Amery. From a. handful of colonists on the Atlantic seaboard they have grown into a hundred mil lions of the most prosperous people in the world. They have achieved this amazing result by concentrating on one great purpose: the develop ment of the resources of their great territory. It is development they have always kept in view, not trade. knowing that trade as an end in itself does not necessarily mean develop ment and prosperity, but that devel- opment inevitably brings both pros perity and trade.
 s'The resources of the British Elm pire are many times greater than those of the United States. If only can concentrate upon that deNel- opment in the same spirit we shall see in the next generation a growth that would bring a wholly new and incalculable expansion of outward trade and internal development to the country"

 London. July 19-EngGsh society women in search of beauty and white shoulders now sit for thirty minutes to an hour every day in the' hair dressing departments of London ho- tels, with their faces, arms and shoul- ders covered with mud.
 The mud masseuse goes round, sec ing that no one is suffocated, taps the mud and, when it is quite hard. breaks the crust and washes it off. The seeker after eternal health then emerges white and healthfu1.
 This process. it Is claimed, is one of beauty's most valuable secrets, and the treatment, though newly intro duced to London, is already becom- ing cult. The mud comes from the Continent and is not chemically treated in any way.
 Managers of hairdressing saloons declare that the effect of this mud on the skin is astonishing, and wo- men with poor complexions and wrinkled skins have derived surpris- ing benefit from it.
 Many women are said to be haV- ing these mud baths several times a week, in their search for eternal health and youth.

 Judge William Boardnlan in City court this morning to the plea of At
 torney Lawrence Finke1stone, counsel
 for Bettino Bstti a bartender in a sa-
 loon at Water street which was raided by the police the other day and a half filled whis1ey bottle found there. F1:nkelstone claimed that the whiskey which was found :n the cellar of the saloon was left there by the former owners of the saloon or else by a couple of transient customers who ! had entered the place and tiring of l the drink had deposited tt in the eel PIar.

 cross examination he said that he had ! gone to the cellar on many occasions during the day and had saw the bot | tie. The police were in the cellar about three minutes when they dis covered the contratand liquor. 1 Judge Boardman found the accused
 guilty and fined him $50 and slspend- ! ed a five day jail sentence. Judge | oRardman explained the reduction

Lariat Wielder Throws At Dog, But

Vallejo, Cal, July 21-For the first time in the forty-nine years that Dr. F. w. Derrick has been poundmaster of Vallejo and probably for the first time in the history of the once wild but now tame West, a disciple of the lariat has aimed his moose at a dos and caught calf.
 A pretty young thing of the genus 'fapper," with flaming red, bobbed hair and with silk stockings encasing shapely limbs. with dresses typifying her as a believer in freedom of the knees," was casually strolling along Georgia street near the intersection of Marin. In her wake trotted diminutive black "pooch," otherwise known as a canine or dog.
