OLD HOME: NOW IS
 DARWIN MEMORIAL
Collection of Relics to Be Placed
 in Building

Down. England Oct. P-The house from which emanated one Of the greatest controversial theories the world has ever known-evolu- tion-is being turned into memor ial to Charles Darwin, creator of the theory.
 Down House, in the green Coun- ty of Kent. is where Darwin wrote the. famous "Origin of Species.'
 The British Association for the Advancement of Science, which re- gently completed an important meeting at Glasgow, has been giv- en the property by Dr. George Buckston Browne. fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons. Browne bought it from Prof. Charles Gaton Darwin. grandson of the naturalist.
 The acquisition of Down House as a memorial to Darwin brings to a lead suggestions advanced on both the American and English sides of the Atlantic for the last quarter of a century. Even before then An drew Carnegie thought of buying it and likewise of putting up a large money award for a decision on eVo- lution. one way or the other. More recently Prof. H. r. Osborn. New York. advanced a plan for making an endowed center for evolutionary research out of barwin's home. Recently Down House has beer used as a private school. Consid- erable changes will be made to bring it into conformity. as far as possible. with its appearance when Darwin coupled it.
 Dr. Browne had already assem- bled the nucleus of a Darwin collec- ton for the old house. Chief articles are portraits of Darwin and Huxley painted by John Collier.
 The house will become a library of works on evolution and on Dar- win. The shelves of the old study | will be filled with all editions Of l Darwin's works. Students will have an opportunity of consulting orlgl- nal documents and manuscripts con- corning Darwin and his writings.

Churches to Combine
 Chinese Mission Work

Foochow, China, Oct. 2 PIAfter years of independent endeavor. American missionary medical work in Foochow is to be combined.
 The consolidation agreement is between the gationalists Board of Foreign Missions and that of the Methodist Episcopal church. Under the decision for a combina- ton. the details of which remain for the boards in the United States to determine, the two missions will combine their work, establish a union hospital and rapidly as pos sible put an end to their independ- ent institutions.
 Both mission staffs here were of the opinion that greater results could be obtained and duplication of work eradicated if union could be consummated. The recent deci- sion of the Methodists to spend S100.000 for the establishment of a new mems hospital was regarded as making more apparent the need for a union.

BOTH PLEASED BY
 TOWN ELECTIONS
Democrats nd Republicans Gather Hope in Connecticut

New Haven. Oct. 1.-LR-Town meeting day in Connecticut yester- day the traditional little town cleo ton. held . lot of comfort to major party workers when today, they analysed the vote cast for town of- acers.
 Both state chairmen. and in the background the national committee men. had been urging their town committees ''to round up the voters" and to find every potential voter pos able aS a preliminary to the great battle at the polling places in No vember.
 From the turnout of electors yes terday in the 133 towns and the city of Middletown an idea was obtained as to the probable size of the nation- al election vote. From the demo- cratic viewpoint there was every in- dication that more democrats turn cd out yesterday than in a good many town meeting days. That the great ma ajority of towns went re- publican ''as usual" was no surprise, but the aggregate of the vote cast indicated a response of voters of both parties sufficiently large in its increase over previous years to war rant forecasts of a tremendous ag- gregate vote on November 6.
 Registratton Large
 It had been stated in republican state committee circles that republi- can registration in towns this fall had been very large and the party vote yesterday reflected this in large measure.
 The democratic vote was indicative of results of the long continued house-to-house canvass Taking the vote on first selectman as the measure of party strength the demo- crats held fast in East Granby, Nor ris, Willon. Newtown, Brooklyn. Windsor Locks, Holland. Plainfield. Washington and Waterford and added Colebrook. Windham, Darion, Enfield and Killingworth. This party's losses were Union, Kent. Simsbury, Columbia. Stamford, Old
 
 Saybrook. Bloomfield, Old Lyme and Cornwall. In Bloomfield citizens ticket won.
 In few of the towns were there any issues of outside importance.
 In Madison which town long has been torn by strife between the Marsdenites and the anti Marsden- ites the democratic ticket had about 800 votes as against less than a dozen in several past years. The re. publicans. however, carried the town by 150 margin.
 In East Haven meeting Clifford H. Street gave a plot of land foI park purposes adding to the gifts which have come to the town o1 late.
