U. S. SOLDIERS
IN HAWAII NEED
MUCH TRAINING
"Washington, March 20 Inadequate
knowledge of topography of Hawaii
by United States soldiers and lack
of marching power to get over diffi
cult mountain tracts in the islands
might mean disaster to the United
States in time of war in the opinion
of Brig. General Montgomery M. Mac
Comb, commanding the department of
Hawaii.
"Not until eueh knowledge and ekill
are acquired," says General MacComb
in hie annual report made public; to
day, "can the infantry station in
Oahu be considered truly efficient
On account of the large number of
recruits In both regiments and the
comparatively recent arrival of one
of those troops at this writing they
have much to learn to bring them to
the state of effiicency desired.
"The -fact of being stationed practi
cally on the terrain over which they
will be required to operate In time of
war gives the local troops an oppor
tunity J.o gain an advantage over an
enemy which should not be lost."
General MacComb declares that the
recent inspections indicate that suffi
cient importance has not been given
to instruction in bayonet exercise.
WILSON TAKES BUTLER
TO TASK FOR FLIPPANT
REFERENCE TO GOVERNOR
Hartford, March 20 The chief item
of interest to come before the com
mittee on insurance yesterday after
noon was a bill concerning the Insur
ance of state property. The 1 bill,
which was introduced by Senator Mc
Donough, provides that no insurance
shall hereafter be taken on any
building owned by the state, or on
which it has a . lien. Dale D. But
ler, president of the Connecticut As
sociation of Fire Insurance Agents,
was the principal speaker in opposi
tion to the proposed measure.
Mrl Butler characterized the bill as
schoolboyish and Impractical. He did
not think that any sane person could
favor such a bill. Representative

Lynn Wilson, a member of the com
mitee shouted indignantly: "This bill
was drawn up by his Excellency the
Governor; do you want us to under
stand that he is not sane?"
"No, but "
"Do you mean to insinuate that he
was not sane when he drew up the
bill?"
Mr. Butler quickly denied that he
had tried to cast any aspersions on
the governor and said that what he
wanted ' the committee to understand
was that no sane person could favor
such a bill, after having the matter
under full consideration.

ELeaior, infant daughter of Nich
olas C. and Elizabeth Moffitt, died
this morning at the home of her par

CITY COURT CASES
.The effect of the beautiful spring
day yesterday was reflected in the
city court this morning when facing
Judge Carl Foster only two prisoners
were brought to the bar. One inebri
ated woman who was given a ten day
sentence and Thomas Collins, arrested
for vagrancy were the unfortunate
pair. Collins was committed for a
period of sixty days.

NEWTOWN
Newtown. March 20 E. J. Thrall,
Tr who formerly ran a shoe repair
ihop at the Bulls Head, and latterly
t Printing House Square, Newtown,
has opened a new establishment in
Slackman block, Sandy Hook.
Our aged townsman, Samuel Tilson,
Is convalescing rapidly from a severe
attack of the grip.
District Deputy Charles' Beach of
Kew Milford was present last night
t the regular meeting of Hiram lodge,
F. & A. M-, at Sandy Hook; also vis
iting brothers from Monroe to see the
M. M. degree exemplified.
Miss Lfrma Brady who has been a
:u eat at St. Rose's rectory, returned
last evening to her home, after a
pleasant .visit. -
The report in The Farmer of yes
terday of the death, of Edward F
Keane, of 47 Union avenue, Bridge
port, waa read' with regret by many
friends here, many of whom will at
tend the funeral today. The family
once lived in Hanover district and
were highly respected. The father,
Martin Keane, was killed by the cars
several years ago. and Is buried in St.
Rose's cemetery, Newtown.
The Misses Gertrude and Catherine,
children of Mr. and Mrs. M. F". Crowe,
of Botsford, have the measles, under
care of Dr. Wales of Monroe.
Most of the public schools in town
closed yesterday for Holy Week ob
servances. Mrs. Daniel J. Keane. Master John
I. Keane and Louise Keane,, of Day
ton street, attended the funeral of
Mrs. Martin T. Keane of Bridgeport,
a relative. Saturday, returning last
Eight from the home of mourning.
Mrs. John Finnell of Zoar is now
considered out .of danger, and her
friends look for an early and count
plete recovery.
The bil to consolidate the school
districts yf Newtown, presented to the
General Assembly by Representative
Hall of New Milford, is not meeting
with the easy sledding anticipated by
lt author. Both representatives from
this town refused to present it, and
signify their intention to appear
against It In committee hearings. Be
sides as it does not provide for the
referendum its fate may be easily
Dredicted. The referendum as a po
litical doctrine of all parties is now
too strongly imbedded in the political
consciences of men to be overlooked
!n any case. Newtown has voted nay
to the proposition twice already, and
the scheme to force consolidation on
sn unwilling electorate will have few
upporters, it is believed, in Hartford.
Nothing has been heard about the
model side-hill school proposition of
the Smith-Scudder-George combination
In Hartford, so far, and it looks as
though Middle School district will
have to worry along for a spell longer
with Its two ancient landmarks of
learning. North Middle school will
till obstruct the view of the back
yards of the denizens of the Boule
vard, while South Middle school will
still stand in the confines of Scudder
Park.
Judge Ephraim D. Briscoe of Hots
ford Hill shipped today from Botsford
three large boulders from the glacial
deposits south of his residence, to
Missouri, to be used for monumental
work by' the Blakeman family, natives
of Newtown. Two ox-teams were used
In carting each block. The boulders
were f ine specimens of granite, doubt
less clipped off some mountain side
of New Hampshire or Vermont, in
some glacial movement of the centur
ies before the yesterdays of history
Miss Marguerite Beecher, daughter
of Judge and Mrs. W. J. Beecher is
expected home the last of this week
from Ingleslde school. New Milford

Hawleyville has been sold to New

Mad at Paint
25c a gallon for paint is about $2 50
on the average Job, and lots of men
waited last year for that; but they
didn't reckon; they got mad; wouldn't
pay it.
There are times to get mad and re
fuse to pay; but when one's property
needs protecting is no time to get mad
and not paint.
Besides, It cost more to get mad and
wait than to paint.
Getting mad doesn't do any good to
your property; paint does it good by
keeping-out water; no water no rot;
no paint, some water a nrl mt- Q '
little rot is more than enough to make
a man noerai toward his. painter and

Paint costs not a cent. All the Paint
