WANT BOUNDARY
 DISPUTE SETTLED
English Government Pressed to Make Decision in Irish Problem
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
 Dublin, April 12.-The Free State is pressing the British government to expedite settlement Of the boundary dispute between northern and south ern Ireland. Resumption of the con ferences in London is being held up by the illness of Premier Sir James Craig ofs Ulster. and William T. Cos grove. president Of the Free State executive council, is represented as tavoring the nomination Of another representative to take Craig's place.
 Failing an agreement at the con- ferences the Free State Is understood 10 have planned to set up the houn- dary commission provided for in the Anglo-Jrish treaty but without n dele gate from Ulster. the northern gov ernment having thus refused to ap- point one. Members of the Dali Eireann as well as nationalist resi- dents of the six-county area have urged the Free State cabinet to per init no further delay, but a hitch is seen In the report from well informed quarters that English law officers have given the opinion that the boundary commission cannot function without Ulster representation. The commis- sion cannot, it is stated, proceed with only the Free State and Great Britain represented, and an act of parliament will be necessary to solve the diff culty.
 When Sir James Craig recovcrs, ar guments in favor of resumption of the conferences and a friendly settlement will be laid before him, and if there is any chance of agreement the dele gates will meet in London immediate ly after Easter.

RETURNS TO MOSCOW
Leon Trotzky Returns to Russian Capital After Many Months En- forced likeness.
By The Associated Press.

By The Associated Press.
 Moscow, April 12.-Leon Trotzky soviet war minister, who has been ab- sent for a long period in the cau- casus because of i'll health, returned to Moscow today. Before leaving the southeastern area, he inspected the army of the Caucasus and took part in a party conference at Tifiis.
 Regarding the Bessarabian situa- tion, Trotzky declared Russia was striving for q pacific settlement but was by no means content to let condi- tions there stay unchanged.
 We will never agree that the Bes- sarabian workmen and peasants shall remain under the iron heel of the Ru- manian nobles," he said. We will not make war and we will strive to avoid it by all means. This, however, does not mean that we agree to the present situation. The soviet government will use all it's power to liquidate the con- fiict peacefully. If its efforts are un- successful, however, this will be due to desire on the part of the other side to aggrayate the situation"

 they had no right to travel the state
 highway between this city and Plain vile charging passengers for rides

 | The controversy grew out of the practice of the four local men in car rying neighbors 10 work in Plainville and returning at night from the fac tory with them. The neighbors did not want 10 impose upon the car own CTS so offered to pay the regular car fare. As charging for the rides is il- legal without the 70" markers, the proper markers were secured and the car owners thought that the law had been fully comlied with. Two of the car owners feel inccnsed that they should have been brought in on the charge and intend to make test case of the matter.

Adding egg to boiled coffee gives
rich flavor impossible to obtain
with coffe alone. If, however. eggs
are too expensive to allow of using
them in this way serve the coffee
directly from the stove, as motion
tends to make the beverage muddy
and "roily."
Eggshells used to clear coffee have
been oVerrated-a quarter cup OF cold
water will answer as well.
In preparing luncheon coffee strain
what remains from breakfast, sweeten
slightly, chill. dilute with cream and
pour into glasses.
Beverages are useful for several
purposes, among which are: To
quench thirst, to assist the organs
of eXcretion. to nourish the body, to
rouse the nerves, to regulate the tenn
perature OF the body and to add wa

In measuring food materials to be
used in the same recipe, measure first
the dry ingredients, then the liquids,
then the fats
In selecting birds to be boned choose
the ones which have been freshly

up they hid where they could see all
that went on, but where they them
selves would not be seen. When the
moon finally came up it flooded with
soft, silvery light the place where the
airplane was, SO that the two watch
ers could see almost as clearly as If
it were daylight.
For some time they saw nothing.
Then the aviator heard the scurry of
run out in the moonlight from under
the airplane. He saw him climb up
in the airplane. A moment or two
later he jumped down, and something
in his mouth glittered in the moon
light. Then he disappeared.
The aviator was puzzled, but did
not think much about it. For a while
Jle saw nothing more. Then he saw
this same little animal, at least he
supposed It was the same, climb up
into the airplane again and a few
minutes later run away with some-
thing in his mouth. In flash a sus-
picion, a strong suspicion, took pos
session of the aviator. He got to his
feet quietly and went over to the
airplane. He counted the little bolts
that had been left there. Two were
missing.
IF ever there was a. surprised per-
son in all the great world 1t was that
aviator. There wasn't a doubt in his
mind now that he had seen the thief.
What under the sun any animal could
want of screws and bolts he couldn't
ina gine. But with his own eyes he
had seen two bolts carried away and
Iie didn't doubt that these had gone
to join all the other things that had
disappeared. He went over TO the
other watcher and told him what he
had seen. Then together they watched
