IWICK-SCHMIDT WEDDING TSDAY Kensington Young Lady Becomes the Bride of Hartford Man—Selectmen Make Appointments—Teachers’ Sal- aries Considered.—Briefs. Years of silent suffering culminat- ed at 5:18 o’clock last evening in the death of Mrs, Caroline Furst Mott, wife of Edgar W. Mott. Mrs. Mott’s condition had assumed serious form during the past few days and she lingered between life and death all day yesterday. Members of the fam- ily were at her bedside in the home on Farmington road when the end came. Mrs, Mott was born August 329, 1A854, in New York city, being at the time of her death in her fifty-ninth Year. She was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Furst. Becoming the wife of Mr. Mott in the year 1886, she moved here with him about twen- ty years ago. The couple have lived here ever since, Mrs. Mott’s loving disposition and pleasing personality won for her a rumber of warm friends, who are grief-stricken over her loss. The deceased is survived by her husband, a son, James Mott, who is chauffeur for Mortimer Judd of New Pritain; a daughter, Mrs. Winfield Wallace of North Haven; a grand- son, Winfield Sumner Wallace; two sisters, Mrs. M. Kinsley. of Haver- straw, N. Y. and Miss M. Webb of New York city. Rev. Samuel A, Fiske of the Ber- lin Congregational church will of- ficlate at the funeral, which is to be held from the late home at 2 o'clock Monday afternoon. Interment will be in Maple cemetery. Some four'years ago Mrs. Mott was taken seriously 111 and underwent four operations at the New Britain Gen- eral hospital. Her friends think that she never recovered from the effects of the indisposition with which she suffered at that time. Mrs. Mott bore her illness with great fortitude, how- ever, and was not confined to her bed until recently. Last Sunday after- noon she was removed to the hospital again, but she realized the gravity of her condition and asked that she be removed home again so that she might die in her own home. Her re- quest was carried out the following ‘day. Kensington Methodist Church. Rev. Edwin M.

At least one person in Berlin knew of the attempt yesterday on the New York mayor’s life as soon as the news- papers. - This was Alden Lincoln, the voung son .of J. C. Lincoln. As ho was working -about his power- ful wireless receiving station early yesterday afternoon, he detected a message to the above effect which. was being -sent out - by some station in Brooklyn. He inter- preted that Mayor Mitchel had been shot at, but could not make out where the affair took place and was inclined to connect the matter with the Mexi- can situation until he read a full ac- count in the Herald a short time later. Without a doubt, young Lincoln has one ,of the best equipped amateur wireless, stations in this section of the: | state and he often catches important Kensington Congregational church is messages.

J. Birley of the Theological seminary of the Boston University. Brief Mention, Mrs. John Norton is the guest of Miss Mary Atwater., Posters on the law concerning dogs, as contained in the public acts of this state, have been hung in the post office and about town.

Foiren, Berlin, Plainville News TWO MORE SPEAKERS FOR COMING BANQUET State President Johaston and W. C. Norris Will Be H:re. OVER ONE HUNDRED TICKETS SOLD Business Men’s President Will Be Only Local Speaker—Await Reply From Congressman Lonergan—Round-up of “Freight Hopping” Vagrauts. Frank H. Johnston of New Britain, president of the State Business Men's assoclation and W. C. Norris of Willi- riantic, head of the organization’s “Loosting” committee, have notified Chalrman S, S. Gwillim of their ac- ceptance of the invitation to speak at the annual banquet of the Business and Improvement association in the Town hall on Thursday, April 30th. The committee of arrangements has also been advised that Rev. Sherrod Soule of Hartford, will give an ad- dress. A definite answer to the invi- tution extended to Congressman Lonergan to be the guest of honor is yet to be heard from. Arrangements for the affair are pro- gressing most satisfactorily according to an announcement made by the com- mittee today. Tickets have been in the hands of the members for nearly a week and more than one hundred have already been sold. The demand is greatly encouraging to the com- mittee and indicates that the attend- ance will be as large as at any pre- vious banquet, the capacity of the hall | being taxed. It has been decided to have .a shorter after-dinner program this yvear than usual. The list of speakers will be smaller and President S. S. Gwillim will be the only local man to respond to a toast. The post prandial exercises at some of the other ban- quets have been too long in the com- mittee’s opinion and this year an cffort will be made to have the pro- gram concluded by midnight. ‘While Congressman Lonergan has promised to attend if he can arrange to be away from Washington on the 20th, it is not a certainty that he will be here, and the committee is now angling for another prominent speaker to talke 'his place. The committee hopes to make a selection early next week. Fox's orchestra hds been engaged to furnish music while the courses are being served and a chorus of eighteen lccal singers will lead in rendering popular songs. The chorus is holding rehearsals regularly and the singing is expected to be one of the entertain- ing features of the affair. Over a score of useful souvenirs have been secured -and each diner will receive a number of pleasant reminders of the banquet. Round-up of Vagrants. The local police and railroad detec- tives last evening made a round-up of “freight-hopping” vagrants and as a result a quartet of the knights of the road appeared in court today. Detectives Mahoney and caught a trio of “weary willies” on a freight train, bound for Hartford, which was sidetracked here. The of- ficers caught them as they got off the train to get some of the kinks out of their limbs which resulted from holding to a cramped position on the bumpers while the train was running from Waterbury to Plainville. The prisoners were turned over to Deputy Sheriff Hart who locked them up. In court this morning before Jus- tice E. P. Prior they gave their names as Frank Riley, George Baker and John Shea. They were typical tramps and made the usual pleas for lenien- cy- Prosecutor Norton told the court that it is time an example was made of “frelght-hoppers” and he recom- | mended a jail sentence. Justice Prior “sent them up” for twenty days. A jail sentence of thirty days was meted out to another ‘“vag,” John Boyle, by name, who appeared in court this afternoon, also on the charge of trespassing on railroad property. Boyle was arrested about 1 o’clock this morning by Officer Marino, who found him sleeping off a BANKING-- Do You Do Any? If not, why not?

He told the local authorities that he is the son of a traveling salesman and has a good home in Cambridge. The Cambridge police have not ad- vised the local officials as to what charges they have against the young- | ster, but the little fellow himself says that it is complicity in a burglary.

While no official notification has as yet been received concernlng the es- tablishment of city delivery servige for the local post office, Washington newspaper correspondents report that the postal department has set June 15 as the date for its inauguration. Postmaster Prior said this morning that the only information he has on the subject is what he received from newspapers. He expects that official notice will be sent to him in a short time and he believes it will be followed by a visit from a depart- ment inspector who will make ar- rangements for appointing two car- riers and also having better quarters for the office. The postmaster believes that June 15 is simply an arbitrary date named by the department. Until house numbers are provided and other pre- liminary details attended to it is not believed that the service can be started. Mr. Prior thinks that July 1, the beginning of the quarter, will probably be the time the service will actually be started. Baseball Team to Practice. Manager P. N.
