 Storrs, Local Agent.)
 Tuesday. Sept 20-Most vege- tables have recently shown a ten- dency to decrease in supply and increase in market firmness. This is partly due to a normal seasonal development as production passes its peak, and partly to more or less frost damage to tender crops in the past week, particularly on Monday morning.
 Fruits, on the other hand, are still plentiful and selling at un- changed prices as a rule. supplies of peaches are slowing up but grapes and apples are increasing. Offerings of peaches at the market place this morning were not quite as plentiful as earlier while aver age quality was better causing higher average prices. Most sales ranged between 40 and 50 cents a basket with some as low as 30 to 35 cents. Some wholesalers with fruit of better quality were getting as high as 7s cents TOT
 The market was firm on beans, corn, celery and spinach. Beets cabbage, carrots, tomatoes and po- tatoes sold mostly unchanged. Un- graded native grapes for juice and preserving purposes sold mostly around 35 cents basket, fancy table stock for 75 cents.

The Prehistoric
 Past of Ireland
Harvard Professor Back From Survey in That
 Country

The current issue of the New York Times, which though not lcw, may be of interest to many
 raders:
 Archaeological discoveries that
 lay bare Ireland's early civiliza-
 on were reported yesterday by 'rofessor William Lloyd Warner of Harvard University, who re- turned on the North German Lloyd liner Stuttgart after a three month survey on the islend for the de- partment of anthropology of Har- yard University and the Peabody Museum. Last year he made q preliminary survey of the entire country and this summer, with three aides from Harvard, he be- gan excavating in Counties Vest meath and Glare.
 "The first excavations were on the grounds of an abandoned monastery at Cronnog, Westmeath, and Professor Warner regards the crumbling edifice as one of the earliest Christion structures in all Europe. Workers found an old lamp, a group of urns, a game board similar to a chess board and numerous implements. Much evil dence of Irish culture, that Pro- lessor Warner said antedated that of other countries, was also un- covered there.
 Professor Warner said his aim is to combine archaeological tech- nique with social customs in Ire land now, to connect the historic past with present-day social agen- cies Ireland he and his cOllegueS believe, was the last outpost of early civilizations.
 Professor Warner said his sole regret on beginning the work, which he expects to consume five years, was the rapidity with which Ireland is adopting new customs and fashions. He saw one house, an architectural treasure built by Italian artisans, being torn down and the stones used for road pay ing.
 This. I suppose. is progress in the modern sense" he said:"

 Turning to the eviction of the bonus army from Washington, D C., Curley sternly condemned the republican administration for call ing out the army.
 "The bonus marchers," he said, "couldn't figure out why it was possible for soldiers of nearly every nation to be paid 8 bonus out of money barrowed from America, but impossible for their own gov ernment to pay them one."t
 Curley will leave for Denver late today where he will make nine addresses in one day.

Boston, Sept 20.-(UP)-A wild scramble for public office, involv- ing enough candidates to populate a small city--15, 800 to be exact reached the semi-final stage today as Massachusetts voters went to the polls in the biennial state primaries.
 Despite the multiplicity of can- didates, indications were that the total poll would be comparative ly light, for except in few con- tests scant interest had been aroused.
 Governor Joseph B. Ely, who in 1880 became Massachusetts first democratic governor in IA years, was unopposed for renomination, and the chief contest on the demo- cratic side was for the nomination for lieutenant-governo with for mer Lieutenant-Goyer Edward P. Barry and John F.. Swift of Milford prominent in a field of eight.
 The outstanding contest of the day, was that between Lieutenant Governor William s. Youngman and Chairman Frank A. Goodwin of the Boston finance commission for the republican gubernatorlal nomination. This was expected to be a close race. E. Mark Sullivan and Walter F.. Brownell, both of Boston, completed the field.
 Senator President Gaspar e. Bacon opposed Executive Council Tor Chester I. Campbell for the re- publican nomination for lieutenant governor.
 Lawrence, Mass, Sept 20.-(UP) The office of state representative from the third Essex district is the most coveted in Massachusetts-if 2 the number of candidates is a cri- terion.

Actual Stock Exchange "Seats~

In the early days "seat" on the
Boston Stock exchange was an actual
ity, each member having his own
chair and desk and forbidden under
penalty Of fine from trading out OF
it. Due to the fact that seats were
arranged in parallel rows along the
walls and facing it, some Of the more
unfortunate members were at some
distance from the rostrum Of the pres
ident Of the exchange who had tho
conduct of business in charge, So that
In times Of brisk bidding they could
with difficulty make their bids or
offers heard. 1t was not until 1885 in
Boston that seats were finally abOl-
ished and not until 1868 In New York
and 1885 In Boston that continuous
daily sessions were inaugurated.-
