e NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERAID, MONDAY, NOVEKBER 12, 1928, SIXTH ACCIDENTAL DEATH IN' CONN. " T Nse Gmaot Woms aad Another Killed Outright Now. Haven, Nov. 13 (P—Armis: tice day, the day on which 10 years 4. ago warring nations of the world k] . lald down their arms, found three _pérsons nursing gunshot wounds and ‘apother killed outright by gun fire in Connecticut. 8ix accidental deaths were reported in the state over the week end, three in automobile acci- dents, one caused by monoxide gas polsoning, another by illuminating £as poisoning and the sixth by gun- fire. One stabbing and several auto- mobile accidents in which serious in- juries were suffered were also re- ported. John E. Bassett, 56, was struck and killed at Stamford, by an auto- mobile bearing New York license plates, which sped away after hit. ting the man. Another car driven by, Jerry Merrill ot Newark, N. J., also struck the man, when it was unable to halt in time. A head-on collision at Stamford, between an automobile and a trol- ley ‘car, sent three negroes, occu- pants of the machine to the Stam- ford hospital with cuts and bruises. None was injured in the trolley. Perley E. Melvin, 65, a retired printer was found dead at Jewett City sitting in his car in his garage. The engine was running at the time and the garage filled with poison- onous gas. At Bridgeport, Christopher B. Ro- berts, was seriously wounded, when he was cleaning a revolver. It was accidently discharged and the bul- let passed over his heart. He is on the danger list at 8t. Vincent's hos- pital. Joseph Parillo, 24, and Charles Motto, 22, both of New Britain, were seriously injured when their car ov- erturned on the Meriden-Hartford highway, near Silver Lake Inn. Both men were taken to the Meriden hos- pital. Stabbed Thrice George Caddo, 25, was stabbed three times, after an alleged battle with Mrs. Frances Brown, at Bridge- port. He was found early Sunday morning, lying on the street in a pool of blood. At Danbury, Olive Goebel, 15, and Edna Reed, 16, were shot in the legs, by the accidental discharge of e shot gun in an automobile. The gun was lying on the rear seat and when a package was tossed into the seat, it accidentally discharged the &un, as the two girls were passing by on the sidewalk. Joseph Durst, . 50, was instantly killed at Madison when he drove his car into the yard of his companion; M. J. Kelley. One of Kelley's dogs leaped into the back seat of the car and discharged a shotgun that was on the seat, believed to have been fully cocked. The gun exploded in Durst's face, blowing part of his head off. Joseph Horgey, 20, of Yantic, was killed and Michael Onuparik, 21, of Oakdale, was injured at Lyme, when thelr motorcycle crashed into an au- tomobile driven by Mrs. Pauline Hoch, of Jersey City, N. J. Mrs. Hoch was slightly injured. The two men were on their way to Danbury to visit the father of a friend of theirs who had been killed in an auto accident recently. Dies By Gas At Bridgeport, a leaky rubber gas tube caused the death of Conrad Heckbart, 70, and William Barnum, 50, was found unconscious at his feet. Barnum was rescued from the gas-filled room and taken to St. Vin- cent's hospital, where his condition | Is critical. Miss Lella Becker, 19, a Westport telephone operator was killed in front of her home by a *hit and run” driver. The car sped away, leaving the girl dying on the post road at Westport.

The officials have not agreed| upon what the new name will con- | sist of, but it is understood that the plan is to eliminate the word Ger- man in the title, because of the fact that it is considered misleading. | While the church was founded by | German 'born citizens and most of its members still claim to be of German ancestry, it is said by church leaders that the services no longer are in German, with few ex- ceptions and that many of the | younger group coming into active participation in affairs of the church organization neither speak nor understand the language.
