A. & B. society last evening celebrated the approaching departure of the members of the so- ciety who have been drafted. The festivities were varied. A large and well conducted parade through the principal streets of ‘the city opened the celebration. After the parade a so- cial time was held in the society’s hall on Lafayette street. The line of march extended from Lafayette street to Main and down Main to Bassett street, and from there to South Main through Edson street and back to Elm street, thence to East Main and to the society’s hall. The parade was unostentatious but it at- tracted much attention and elicited generous applause from the onlook- er: The marshal of the parade rode a spirited charger. A line of 10 priests followed next. The society’s drum corps came next. The martial tunes of the fifers and the animated booming of the drums kept the members of the soclety, 400 strong, who followed, swinging along the streets in rythmical motion. The Philharmonic band and the Tierney Cadets completed the assemblage of marchers and the rear of the parade was brought up by half a dozen au- tomobiles with red fire. The large American flag which was carried at the head of the society m hers was the object of many ad- miring ecyes. Each member of the soclety in the procession carried a small American flag. At the entertainment at the rooms of the soclety after the parade, Rev. J. T. Winters, pastor of St. Mary’s church, addressed the men and Mayor George A. Quigley added a few words. Each of the men who is going to leave tomorrow for Camp Devens was pre- sented with a pouch of tobacco and trench mirriors. Several acts of vaud- eville were staged and were received quite favorably. The celebration was the largest that the society ever held as a separate or- ganization. The success of the cele- bration was well merited for the so- ciety took the initiative in planning the celebration and carried out its plans without municipal aid.

SPELLACY.” When Mrs. Hale and \Vhitehead were told by their attorney, Harry Edlin of New Haven that there was a decision of not guilty (the two were seated in the corridor outside the court room) the woman did not ap- pear to be particularly elated and made no comment except for a slight nod of acknowledgement. Before leaving the building Mrs. Hale stepped into the detective bureau to claim a small black velvet handbag, which she lost in police court when the case was being tried Tuesday morning. Chief Detective Sergeant Frank San- toro returned the bag to her and the two shook hands. Mrs. Hale smiled and told the detective who arrested her Sunday that she bore no ill will towards him. She added that she knew she could not be prosecuted but Sergeant Santoro intimated that the police department had accomplished its purpose. Accompanied by Mrs. Morris Beck- er, whose husband furnish balil for the accused woman, Mrs., Hale left im- mediately after for the hotel, where she stayed during the time she was detained in this city. There she set- tled her hotel bill and told the clerk she was leaving for New York, Mr. Whitehead, who had been making his quarters at socialist hall when he was not in police court was said by his associates at the hall to have gone back to work at the office of a local express company.
