FARM IN THREE COUNTIES
 FOUND BY CENSUS WORKER
Galliyan's Property Liable for Taxes In Three Towns and City of Will
 Iimantic, Enumcrator Discovers

Lebanon. April 1o P-Hcre are some of the things tho census enum- orator found out about Timothy M. Gallvan. His 13O acre farm is in three counties. New London, Holland and Windham.
 He pays several kinds of taxes. He has worked the farm for 47 years and remains a bachelor. Most of Gal . livan's farm lies in New London county and it is at the extreme northwestern edge of the town.
 It extends over the Columbia line to the south and into Windham township at a point near tho bridge where Ten Mile River empties into Willimantic River.
 When tax bills come in, three towns claim a little money. Columbia lays it on three acres and Windham on less than one. But as the latter also juts into Willimantic, he has q city tax to pay. In town loyalty Gal livan naturally adheres to Lebanon, but he takes almost equal interest in the doings of Windham and New London counties.

Washington, April 12 R,-Sccking s35,000 for the years work, army engineers in 1880 will continue their intensive effort to keep the Misss 'sippi river within bounds.
 The vast program of flood protcc- ton, launched after the disastrous high waters of three years ago, now has reached point described as satisfactory by the engineers.
 With the proposed appropriation, sS9,000,000 will have been spent of the s325. 100000 provided for a 10 year period
 The latest sum will go for work at many places along the rivers course. Levecs will be slightly raised and strengthened this year. and new ones constructed.
 The 100-milc stretch of levec along the south bank of the Arkan- sas river will be elevated and but trcssed to protect southeast Arkan- sas and northeast Louisiana from possible inundations. Army cnsin- cers say they consider the latter levee the weakest section Of the Mississippi system.
 The leVees in the vicinity of tthe mouth of the Ohio this year arc to be raised about three feet. and work IS to be vigorously pushed on construction of an emergency set vack lcvee between Birds Point and New Madrid, Mo-. about five miles from the regular levee. About 30 miles long. it is expected to take care of 70 miles of river.

Second Section

Chicago, April 12 (UP)-Adam and Eve. turned out of the Garden of Eden in the dawn of time, may be turned out of the Illinois Womans s club and with less ceremony.
 This Adam and Eve are copper hued and hang on the walls of the athletic club in an exhibit of paint ings of Miss Valentine Nogel, St. Louis artist with modernistic ten- dencies.
 The redskin Adam and Eve in Miss Vogels much discussed paint ing have tossed all conventions and fig leaves to the winds and stand nude, gazing out over green pea- Eve facing this way and Adam the other.
 Miss Nogels reason for painting the first folks rcd and the sea green was "because I merely happen to like red figures against a green sky" she said. And it's the least obscene picture I've ever painted.'
 Members of the athletic club threaten to do something about it.
 That picture is unfit for public view" Mrs. Lydia Huyck, prominent member of the exclusive club, thinks.
 Tt should never be hung in the same room with innocent Subjects" comments Mrs. Ada Witmer, an- other club leader.
 Baroness Violet Werner, however, came to the defense of Miss Vogel.
 While Eyes nose is sort of cut off and Adam looks like a prize fighter, I don't think there is any thing obscene about the picture" {" she said.
 Anyway we don't know how Adam and Eve looked, so why criti- cize," said another defender.
 Mrs. Charles Peterson, sponsor of the exhibit, has made no decision.

 to Raise S72,100 This Year

Two separate campaigns will be conducted by the United Community corporation this spring, according to action taken by the directors at their meeting last evening. One campaign, to start immediately, will take care of all special and mail subscriptions. The public and fac tory campaign will be held at date to be announced later.
 This action was taken so that ob- stacles will be out of tho way when the public drive opens, except the solicitations which require personal contact.
 The directors went over the bud gets of the organizations and cut their requests almost 5000, making the total amount to be sought about $2.000 less than that sought in 1929.
 The budget adopted is as follows:

New York-S. s. 'Leviathan." In addition, there are about 20 such circuits either in the experimental stage or under construction in the various parts of the world. Ameri- can engineers, Shoup says, have perfected a transatlantic tele- phone cable which is expected to be in operation in 1892.
 The United States, says Shoup, is in direct radio communication with more than 30 countries Within the last few months direct radio cir cults were established to Chile and Peru, and in the near future addi- tional circuits will be inaugurated with the Philippines.
 From China comes news that progress is being made on the in stallation of the powerful trans oceanic short-wave stations at Shanghai and Mukden. It is hoped that the Shanghai radio station will be in direct operation with San Francisco by June.
 Among other direct services to be launched in 1880 are those to Rus sia and Czecho-Sloyakia.

SUNS OBSCURTTY ON
 NEXT MONDAY MAYRE
 OBSERVED IN JUNEAU
Unternationai Newsreei,

Under favorable weather condi- tions, a partial eclipse of the sun may be observed in Juneau next Monday forenoon from about 9.20 o'clock until l1:25 o'clock. As far as Juneau is concerned, the eclipse will be only partial and not total as in some sections of the states.
 At Honey Lake, in California, the Solar eclipse record will be made.
 Varied preparations are being made to observe the eclipse in all it's stages. Captain Freeman, su- perintendent of the Naval Observ- atory at Washington, D. O., has sent the obseryatory's famous woman astronomer to observe the eclipse, which is of great importance, as it is to be total obscuration of the sun, lasting for second and a half. A specially built camera with a 46-inch focal length and a power full Tense, capable of taking pie lures 8 by 10 inches, will be used by the woman astronomer. Mrs. Lewis will endeavor to photograph the suns corona-a beautiful gase- ous effect that is only discernible when it projects beyond the suns disc during the period of eclipse. It is expected that an intensive study of the corona will reveal new facts about the sun.
 Aviation is to be pressed into service for the complete survey of the eclipse. Two naval planes, carrying specially built and stra- logically mounted cameras, will soar into space in an endeavor to obtain a complete pictorial record of the eclipse. Very good photo- graphs were obtained during the eclipse that occurred in the Philip pines last May, but the record is not yet complete. With the eclipse lasting less than two seconds and the moons shadow only half mile wide, it will need skill and precis- ion of a high order to record com pletely the path Of the moon and it's effect on Old Sol as it journeys between the planet and the earth.
