Big Jim" Watson Not
 Exercise Advocate

Washington, July 50 P)-"Bis Jim" Watson, 260 pound senator from Indiana, approaching his 65th year, docs not believe men near his age should seek to re- gain the vigor of youth through physical exercise if they have led scdentary lives.
 Famous in the sos as a De- Pauw university athlete, he long since has ceased to seek physical: exercise because he believes that after passing the half century mark, men who have not led physically active lives will break down their mental or physical strength by excessive exercise.
 When my friends urge me to take up golf" he remarks, q tell them l get plenty of exercise by acting as pail bearer to my COW pasture pool shooting friends who die of heart disease and over cXertion."

SHOWING TEUTON|C
 EMERGENCY MONEY.
National Bank Has Collection Of
 War Period Currency

The New Britain National bank has on exhibition in one of it's win dows collection of German and Austrian emergency money issued during the years from 1914 to 1924 and which was the lawful means Of paying in those countries in those years.
 The collection consists of $50 pieces ranging in face value from $ Pfenng notes, originally one and one-quarter cents. 10 note for 10 billion marks (Mk 10000, ,O00) issued in 1923.
 In Germany and Austria there was during and after the war a complete shortage of gold and silver money. the result being that all towns were compelled 10 have recourse to the so called Emergency Money.' Most of the money was printed on paper with elaborate designs and bright colors but in towns with big aluminium factories coins were pro- duced made of this metal. Large wood districts produced wooden coins and money printed on wood. Saxony made beautiful china coins after the design of great artists. There are examples of all of these coins in the collection There are also notes issued by the German government which are now hard to obtain as the government cancelled and destroyed these issues removing them from circulation. One note of this kind is especially interesting as it was originally issued for one thousand marks and was later sur charged with the value of one mil lion marks.
 At the beginning of the period this emergency money was always print ed on both sides but near the end of the period the presses could not work fast enough and only one side of the paper was printed.
 In consequence of the continuous decline in the value of the mark. the German government was obliged to give consent to the issuing of money by the large manufacturers and there are numerous pieces of this currency in the collection.
 For the past five years no town, city or industrial company has been permitted to print its own money and the gold mark has now been | established on basis of one mark 1 equal to one English shilling or about A cents.
 This collection has historical value as it represents period of 10 years during which the German currency reached the most fantastic imitation 1 that ever occurred in the currency of any country.

ute they will be far short of normal A7 shillings (S11.0S) weekly for men and 30 shillings ($7.20) for women.
 The reductions which the em ployors proposed to make effective would have reduced the averages to about 4 shillings (59.S4) for men and 27 shippnss ($6.4S) for women.
 There has been much talk since inception of the strike of nogotia- lions between the employers and em- rloyes looking 10 settlement of the difficulty, but the divided con- dition of both camps has proved a deterrent
 Spinncrs May Negotiate
 As far as the operatives are con- cerned the spinncrs were said to be quite ready to negotiate with the mill owners, the Cardroom workers were understood 10 be less disposed 10 do so, and the WcaVers entirely opposed acceptance of any reduction, or ne- gotiations to that end.
 On the other side it appeared the employers were less well organized than had been supposed. This was shown by the fact some of the mills still worked at the old rates and re- fused to support the reduction. de- claring the stoppage Of work would kill important orders they were filling.
 It was held generally the prcsen, labor government would be much more likely 10 find a way Of settling the dispute than would have gcv- crnment of another political com pleNion, and both operators ana operatives looked to Miss Margaret !5ondfeld, minister of labor, for sug- Gestions toward solution.

Daylight Break Unsuc. cessful as Barking Dog Leads Police to Empty House Refuge.

New Bedford. Mass, June II CP Four prisoners at the House of Correction who made a sensational dash for liberty yesterday were back in that institution in solitary con finement today considerably the worse for their encounter with pur- suing police and with barking dog to thank for their capture.
 Their span of liberty was brief. Less than half an hour after the four had lowered themselves out of a window on the second floor chair shop. through sawed and twisted steel bars, and down an improvised rope made of twisted pieces of cane, all had been returned, two of them only after severe clubbing.
 Spotted By Former Policeman
 A former ambulance driver for the police department espied the fugitives in prison garb only a min ute after they had fled the shop in full daylight. Then men realizing they had been recognized dashe uo"A tAO olAoCt' oSci = tShSo anu into the rear door of an unoccupied house. The driver. perceiving the hopelessness of pursuit while un- armed, hastened to telephone to give the alarm. It was at that point that the dog came into action.
 The animal, big collie, had chased the quartet to the door of the house and there set up a con. tinuous barking that eventually di- rected police and officials of the House of Correction to the place. A search revealed three of the men in the attic, where William Hudson. Pawtucket, R. I. burglar, elected to fight it out. Eugene Guobleton. New York city automobile thief, who is alleged to be wanted in New Jersey for attempted murder. bounded down a stairway with Jeffrey Bel liveau, of this city, who was serving time for an abduction.
 All Four Subdued
 They ran into a platoon of police and although they attempted to fight their way through were as quickly subdued. as was Hudson who was given a severe clubbing.
 It was not until the men had been returned to their cells that check revealed that a fourth man, Arthur Rama-~. Providence, R. l., thief.
