The affair was in the nature of a strawberry festival and practically the entire membership of the church and Sunday school was present. Instead of being simply an occasion where the members went in, bought their straw- berries and cream and went home, the affair much resembled a gathering fn a country church. Men gathered in the lobby and discussed church and neighborhood affairs with the new minister, while women flocked about the pastor’s wife and her mot%er wnd listened to their stories of the Near East relief work, in which both wom- en figured. Sunday school children gathered about the pianoe and such old fash- ioned songs as “Old Black Joe,” etc., filled the little church with melody. Recovering ¥rom Fire.

MEXICO IS WELL PLEASED News of Huerta's Successful Mission To United States Proves Very Gra- tifying at Capitol. Mexico City, June 18.-—News of the successful outcome of Finance Minis- ter de la Huerta's conferences with the international bankers in New York was halled as a momentous achievement and a definite step tow- ard the resumption by Mexico of its place in the concert of nationw. It is now generally predicted by the newspaperg that Senor de la Huerta will doubtless reach a com- plete agreement with the American oil men relative to taxation, and it is not unlikely that he will go to Wash- ington to pay an informal visit to of State Hughes.

ADAMS."” New York, June 17.—Mrs. Rebecca Senst, 70 years old, became rigid yes- terday afternoon as she lay in her bed at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Riski Grossman of 28 Lewis street. There was no one with her at the time but an old man of the neighbor- hood who had volunteered to be nurse while Mrs. Grossman went shopping. He used a pin and other tests which experience had taught him would show whether pgople were alive or dead. He concluded that Mrs. Senst was very dead indeed. The presence of death affected the old man to such an extent that he ran into the street, where he stood and yelled in Yiddish. He drew a large and interested crowd of friends, rclatives and neighbors of the Gross- mans and the Sensts, and fifty or more of them followed him upstairs and crowded into the small room where Mrs. Senst lay motionless. They were making tests, each person having his or her particular test, and when Grossman and Mrs. Grossman got home they were told that heyond doubt Mrs. Senst was dead. So Grossman went to the undertak- ing establishment of Hirsch & Schwartz, and they sent Samuel Don- ner and Harry Sherman with a hearse and two big tubs of ice to the Gross- man apartment to put Mrs. Senst in a box, packed well in ice, and let her stay there until after the Jewish Sab- tath, when the burial would take place. They started to do this while the sorrowing friends and relatives watched. They put Mrs. Senst in the box and Donner and Sherman dumped in two or three big cakes of ice. As soon as the ice hit Mrs. Senst's body her legs twitched, once. Two 8r three of the more timid ones in the ctowd immediately went home, and the others drew back and watched. They watched for some time, but Mrs. Senst did not move again, so Donner and Sherman dumped in some more ice. Again Mrs. Senst's leg twitched. Donner and Sherman became excited NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, SATURDAY, JUNE 17, 1922 the box s fast as they could. They had Mrs, Senst almost covered with it, when she suddenly sat up, began throwing out the lce with her hands and yelling in Yiddish, In another minute she and Donner and 8herman were the only persons in the room. The others had run down stairs at top speed, shouting and pray- ing. Donner and Sherman staygd be- cause it was their ice and their box, necessary in their business, and when Mrs, Senst convinced them that she was not dead they lifted her out of the box and put her back on the bed, Then they got into their hearse and drope away, their interest in the af- fair ended. When the Grossmans got back into their house they summoned Dr, Ber- nard Aglin of 273 Rlivington street, who said that Mrs. Senst had had a stroke of paralysis, but would be all right in a few days. HARVARD'S RUMPUS Alumni Is Assured That Matter of Race Prejudices Will Be Satisfac- torily Settled. Boston, June 17.-—Harvard univer- sity alumni, gathered here from many parts of the country for the annual meeting of the Associated Harvard clubs, were prepared to leave for their homes late today with the in- formation that President A, Lawrence lowell was appointing a committee of overseers to investigate the sub- ject of raclal proportions in the stu- dent. body. Dr. Charles W. Eliot, president emeritus of Harvard, made the an- nouncement in responding to the re- quest by Dr. Clarence Little, presi- dent of the University of Maine, and a former secretary of the Harvard corporation, for an official retraction of reports that Harvard planned ra- cial descrimination. Dr. Eliot asserted that the faculty had adopted two measures of doubt- ful expediency, which later were re- scinded. This action he said, has been accepted by the overseers. He urged the alumni to leave the matter in the hands of the “able and well appointed committee”” which Presi- dent Lowell was naming. . STRIKE BALLOTS ISSUED Stationary Firemen and Oflers, Af- fected By Cut, Will Be Given Chance To Voice Their Opinions. Cincinnati, June 17.—(By Associat- ed Press)—Strike ballots to statien- ary firemen and oilers and instruc- tions to general ecommittees of signal men to decide whether to take a strike vote will be in the mails by night, following the decision of the railroad labor board last night cut- ting wages of members of these unions. Clerks and station employes will not take a general strike ballot, E. H. Fitzgerald, grand president of the brotherhood announced. He said that the general committee on each rail- road system or road would determine whether or not a strike ballot would be issued and added that where such votes were taken the men would be bound by the result. There will be no walk out on a number of roads which have made agreements with the men which boupd them to accept any wage slashes made by the labor board. A meeting between the rallroad presidents and miners under a ‘‘co- operative agreement” to consider the threatened railroad strike hinged on the arrival of John L.
