NAVY BEANS MAKE
DELICIOUS PUREE

Our old friend, the navy bean, is
too often thought of merely as the
main dish or meat substitute. AS IL
matter of fact, thoroughly cooked
white beans. strained and combined
with white sauce, make a delicious
and nourishing puree. Beans are al
kaline in their final reaction. They
contain several valuable minerals, and
if the white sauce which enters into
the soup is favored in the making
with a slice Of onion. the resulting
soup will be appctizing as well as
nourishing.

Startling Conditions Affecting
 Health of Residents Discovered
 at Westwood Park in Plainville
Overflow From CesspoOls and Water From Wells Used
 For Domestic Purposes Mngle, Causing Typhoid

according to the findings of Dr. Lanpher, the overflow from the cesspools has In some instances been used to irrigate the gardens and contaminating the food supply Of the district. Not all Of the homes in this section use wells, some be- ing provided with town water, but none has any sewerage facilities.
 No definite source of the infec- tion could be determined by Dr. Lanpher, but he reported to Dr. Cook that 1t was possible there was carrier in the district. The ulti- mate origin, he said, was probably one of three possibilities, the water supply, the milk supply, or Wat kins' swimming pool.
 The present typhoid outbreak as well as those in the past would probably have been impossible had there been proper sewers. Dr. Cook states. Dr. Lanpher empha- sized especially the necessity of sewers, as the section Is growing u PAOAJ 1AAb I4Lt IOAA6toNACAl OA nEIIo and cesspools is becoming greater Other recommendations are expect ed to be included in a written re- port which he will submit to the local health officer.
 The matter was referred by pr. Lanpher to the division of sanitary engineers, and Warren J. Scott, as sistant engineer, began more comprehensive survey this morning. II is expected that he and his men will be here for the balance of the week and will be able to determine the ultimate infection source and make corrective recommendations.
 No further cases Of the disease have been reported since yesterday The three afflicted persons have been removed to the New Britain General hospital and all possible steps are being taken to prevent the further spread of the fever.

Unions Will Stage Parade on Labor Day For First Time In
 Ten Years.

Hartford, July Pl-For the first time in ten years, Labor Day on September will be observed here by the Central Labor Union and the Structural Building Trades Alliance with a big parade and celebration.
 IL is expected that from LOGO to coco union workers will Narch ill parade and will take part in the &C., tivities or the day.
 The program proposed has been prompted by q letter received from President William Green Of the American Federation of Labor who is urging every city, town and village to observe Labor Day this year with celebration of some kind in order that the significance of the day might not disappear entirely.
 Ten years ago labor organizations held their last parade here when the state federation had it's convention in this city. Since then the day has been passed by without any celebra- tion, and the plans now are 10 re- yive the holidays as the most import ant on the labor calendar.

CANADIAN RUM SHIP
 SEIZED NEAR BOSTON
Test Case Planned - Liquor Worth Over Mil
 lion on Another Boat

Boston, July 8 CPl-The Canadian
 schooner Sumner which was anchor
 cd on Rum Row off Cape Cod be- tween 50 and so miles from Boston llightship, was seized and brought into port today. The Sumner, a
 three masted Canadian vessel was one of the largest of the seven ships offshore. Coast Guard headquarters said that proceedings would be made in a test case. a
 The Sumner, in tow Of the cutter Morrill, and guarded by a patrol boat, was brought into the harbor shortly after Il a. m. (eastern daylight time). Details concerning the seizure and the amount of the cargo were lacking. Coast guard officers were not prepared to say on what grounds prosecution would be sought, beyond the assertion that it would be made test case.
 The Sumner which has been on Rum Row before under the name lover the Top" appeared with five other schooners and a steamer with in the last few days, just after the coast guard had launched it's new Icampaign against smuggling. ! The seizure Is understood to have taken place about nine miles from the mainland at Highland Light. The value of alcohol and liquor seized aboard the Cretan, another boat captured yesterday was esti- I,oNo o+ 06n mo day by customs officers. The seiz- ure made at a Boston dock last night was said to be by far the largest and most valuable ever made in this port. At noon more than S0, ,000 gallons of the contraband had been unloaded and agents di- recting the unloading reported near ly as much more remained in the hold.
 By continued questioning of Cap tain August Alksn and his crew of 22 men, the customs officers hoped to learn something concerning the source of liquor, its destination and the identity of the persons operating the ship. The Cretan was sold a lHOnlu ago ny llS MCICHdIllS anu Miners Transportation company to the Atlas Chartering company of Baltimore. Since then, 1t was thought, the vessel might have changed hands again,
 The captain and the crew were taken to federal court today under heavy guard. There were so many defendants that there was no room for them in the prisoners cage and they were therefore seated in the courtroom under guard of federal officers. They were to be arraigned later today.
 The Cretan recently cleared for Philadelphia by way of Portland, Me, but unexpectedly returned here. There suspicious aroused, customs officers began search which re- suited in the discovery of the liquors hidden beneath a cargo Of cotton waste and wire screen. The officers pointed out that at price of $10 a gallon. which is low ac- cording to present quotations, the alcohol would be worth far more than a million dollars.

Special to the Herald.)

Plainville, July S-Serious men, aces to the health of Plainville were found by Dr. Howard A. Lanpher, epidemiologist of the state bureau Of preventable diseases, when he made a survey of existing sanitary conditions in Westwood park yes- terday. His investigation was made at the request of the local health officer, Dr. George F. Cook, follow ing the outbreak of three cases of typhoid fever in this section Of the town, where the disease has been recurrent for many years. Dr. Lan- pher attempted to find, if possible, the source Of infection, but found the problem too large for him and has called in the state sanitary en- gineers, who went to work on the case this morning.
 Deplorable conditions were found by pr. Lanpher. A network of mingled wells and cesspools cover the slope on which this colony of homes is built, and no care has been taken to keep the wells above the cesspools, so that these latter may drain into the wells below them and pollute the water supply. The cesspools are also allowed to overflow and the waste runs down the slope, toward wells. Thus the whole system of wells and cess pools is apparently connected by both surface overfows and under ground drainage, and at the foot of the slope the entire network empties into brook flowing into Watkins swimming pool. This pool, for many years popular as a public swimming place, is therefore con- sidered by the health authorities as a possible source of typhoid infec- lion.
 The season has been dry and water for gardening purposes has been scarce, with the result that,
