BLUE WON PRAISE | IN SPANISH WAR MANY GIFTS ARE MADE 10 MUSEUM | Public Showing Enthusiasm Over Collection at Institute That the Museum of Natural His- ] tory and Art on the upper floor of the New Britain Institute in popular favor demonstrated by the large number of people who it daily and by the numerous gifts it has received. Although the museum has heen open to the public only since May 31, it has been visited by over 22,000 people. Many persons who visited the museum at its opening and j have not been in again until recently { have been surprised and delighted | with the many things that have been added. Among the latest gifts to the muse- um is an old spinning wheel in splen- did condition, which was used by Maryett Harris, wife of Sylvester D. Crowell of Middletown, Conn., in 1820. It was presented to the institute by | her son, Henry B. Crowell. Two other very interesting additions to the museum is a reel and a hetchel used by Fsther Coe, wife of John Bird- | sey of Middlefield, Conn., about 1800. They were presented to the museum by her grand-daughter, Mary Bird- sey Lee Crowell. These crude affairs of olden d will inform the children of the pre: sent time of the efforts put forth by our forefathers in order to make the things they needed. Upon seeing such objects of the days gone by, it causes one to think and to awaken a feel- ing of deeper appreciation for mod- ern methods and advantages. Other objects which will take one still further back in history is a col- lection of Indian arrowheads, which was presented to the museum by Wil- liam Smith. All the specimens in this collection were collected on the Smith fruit farm beyond Shuttle Meadow lake. This is the first gift to the mu- | seum of Indian curios and they are much appreciated. Tt is hoped that other collectors of Tndian relics will donate collections to the museum. During the short time that the museum has been open to the public it has received some splen- | did gifts, and has been promised many more. Those who have given to the museum besides those already mentioned, and the objects donated, are as follows: Benjamin H. Smith, box turtles, painted turtles, copperhead snakes, black snakes, milk snakes, hog-nosed | adder, salamanders, woodchuck, rib- | bon snakes, green snakes, frogs is is well visit CRPTAIN VICTOR BLUE Captain Victor Blue, United States | vy, just appointed to command the fter serving as chief of the bureau of navigation, with the temporary rank of rear ad- miral), has had a distinguished career. In the Spanish-American war Captain Blue, then lieutenant, won promotion and fame by landing at Santiago, Cuba and traveling seventy-two miles around the city to ascertain that Cer- vera’s ships were actually in San- Hago harbor. He ran the risk of cap- ture and execution as a spy. Since then Captain Blue has held various important commands. ne hatleship Texas RANTINE; FINED.

These certificates were no value here. Mrs. Shilvanovitch came with the children Monday, and Tuesday, and each time was turned pack at the railroad station. Yester- day the family were found here.
