DEATH OF MRS. JULIA A. ADAMS Well Nigh a Centenarian—Passing of a True Daughter of New London County. In the death of Mrs. Julia A. Adams at Gales Ferry at the advanced age of 86 years, which occurred Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock, is to be noted the severing of another link which con- nects the modern life of New London county, and of course of the state, with chapters of the interesting story of this country’s past—with the original set- tlement of this section by the white men, with the time of the Indians'and the Revolutior, the subsequent exten- side trade of our local countryside to the West Indles, with the period when New Englan® whalemen were supreme in this section, and with all that per- tained to last-century life hereabouts. All of these features of the past Mrs. Adams was to a marked degree famil- jar with. Her father, the late Guy C. Stoddard, state senator, a soldier of the war of 1812, during her childhood days had to do with the settlement of In- dian claims, the Stoddards from whom she was a direct descendant having been among the first settlers in this section. In 1695 the first Stoddard took Gager tract of land in Grot- the present site of Gales Ferry, Since that time the Stod- dards have always made their pres- ence felt in that section, although very few of the decendants arg now left on the east shore of the Thames river. They were active patriots in the Rev- olutionary war. During the West Indian trade in the early part of the nineteenth century, the whaling industry was developed at New London, Mystie, Stonington and New Bedford. Some of her family were Interested in the West India traffic. She married James Adams, late of Gales Ferry, who was one of the old- est in term of service of New London whalers, Of sturdy Puritanical stock, she was one of the type of women who made the settlement of our country possible —a woman of opinions and determina- tion and of a high deeree of intelli- gence, who might be found relieving distress amongst the most dangerohs of neighborhood illnesses, making great clothes for the men who salled at sea or picking lint for the wounds of New London county's soldier boys in the terrible Civil war. Active in church and social affairs, Mrs. Adams was always a public spir- ited woman, and remained so until the last. The extension of the Norwich & Worcester railroad through the town changed the characteristics of life in Ledyard and to a great degree, but Mre. Adams adapted herself to them as far as her age would allow, and in these later days she was ever in sympathy with the idea of progress. Consequently sbe was a favorite with the young people of today, many of whom have visited her during her long {liness. Two children, Mrs. Wtlliam H. Mol- throp (at whose home she died), and David S. Adams of the New Haven Palladium, were with her at the time of her death, She leaves relatives in very many of the cities and towns of the ‘state, and, in fact, throughout the country, It Smooths And Softens The Skin.

Bringing the greetings of the state organization, President Mansficld said he shouald speak upon the subject “How Can I Make the Work of My Society More Effective?” Iach member of a society can do this, he said, and theie are three or four things necessary. First, through fellowship with Chris! second, by knowing the Book, God' word; third, a prayer meeting cov nant pledge, and, fourth, a definite line of work. The true society marsnais its forces for Christ and the church. It is a training school that is meeting the needs as no other organization has done. Any soclety can be a mighty force, and should attempt great things and expect great things. We need to get a larger vision of usefulness and ask ourselves for wkat purpose we are in this work. Christian Endeavor will be judged by its faithfulness to the standards it has set up. Hold fast to the religious side of life and make your prayer meetings more spiritual.

Known as the Harddigs | Playing in Nova Scotia Vaudeville House. Badly iced up. her rails, decks and | riggings showing the effects of her battle with the elements, the Plant| line steamer Lady Sybil, Capt. M. B.| Wrayton, twenty-two hours late, ar- rived at Halifax, N. S, from Boston | Monday night, The steamer sustained no damage, but all on*board were glad when she made port, as the trip was a very stormy one. | For 14 hours In the bay of Fundy the Sybil lay to; for it was impossible | to proceed against the mighty seas| that prevailed, With the wind blow- ing 60 miles an hour the Sybil rode out the storm, though she was con- stantly washed by mountainous seas. On Sunday morning about three o'clock, in the middle of the bav of Fundy, the gale became terrific, the steamer was tossed about in the heavy seas, made practically no headway and | Captain Wrayton decided to lay to.| From that time until four o'clock on | Sunday afternoon she lay to, then the weather moderating somewhat she be- gan to make headway. It was then hoped that Halifax would be reached early on Monday morning. But it | was not to be. Off Cape Sable the Sybil ran Into a terrific hurricane, whigh greatly retarded her progress. On the passenger list were W. L. and J, A. Potter of Norwich, and in writing home the former says it is needlese to say we will return by rail. Their act is taking flne up there and they have secured engagements in oth- | er citles for two weeks longer than thelr eriginal bookings, FUNERALS. Qeorge C. Ripley. Funeral services for George Co Ripley, whe died in Minneapolis Tues- | day morning, were held at the Plym- | outh Congregationa] church, says the | Minneapolis Journal. President North- rup of the unlversity of Minnesota, conducted the services. Representatives from the Morgan G. A. R. post, of which Colonel Ripley was a member, were present, and also a large number of the members of the Yale Alumni association of the northwest, of which | association Colonel Ripley had been | at one time president. | The remains of the deceased have | been placed temporarily in the receiv- | ing vault at Lakewood cemetery, and the final interment wil] be at Colonel Ripley’s old home, Norwich, Conn. The pallbearers were John B. At- water, Charles S, Jelley, Anson S. Brooks Rev, John E. Bushnell, Prof. Frederick S, Jones, Dr. Burnside Fos- ter, Burt F. Lum and Wilbur F. Booth. Colonel Ripley was born in Norwich, Conn., August 24, 1839. After the close of his military service, and aft- er receiving his degree from Yale uni- versity, he took up the study of law in the office of Jeremiah Halsey, one of the most prominent attorneys of his day in the state of Connecticut, and was admitted to the bar. He was for many years city attorney of Nor- wich, Conn., and served two terms in the Connecticut legislature, In 1853 he removed to Minneapolis, forming a partnership with H. G. O, Morrison. Subsequently he was at the | head of the firm of Rip! Srennan & Booth, and later of the firm of Ripley & Lum, He was the leading attorney %l the celebrated case of King vs. emington, and largely through his efforts his client, Colonel King, re- covered property amounting to about $1,500,000. Severa] years ago Colonel Ripley had a severe attack of pernicious ane- mia, and while seeming in the last year to have recovered somewhat, yet this was the immediate cause of his death. Philip Gallivan. ‘The funeral of Philip Galllvan was held from the rooms of Shea & Burke | on Saturday afternoon, where a service | was conducted by Rev. W. A. Gildea of St. Patrick’s church. Burial was in §t. Mary’s cemetery. CASE SETTLED SATURDAY. Appeal to Supreme Court Was at Same Time Withdrawn. The case of Max Pelsachenkew vs. the Hopson & Chapin company settled Saturday morning by fendants for the amount of awarded to the plaintiff by the supe court on Dec. 17, 1908. The Hopson & | Chapin company or the Travele surance company of Hartford is the real defendant. took an appeal at | that time and this was withdrawn on Saturday. Lucky or Unlucky—13. A party of local fishermen out after | pickerel on Saturday was using a dip- per to skim the small pieces of from the holes when the eagle eye of a veteran discovered that it had the marking “13” on the handle. Hoodoo! was the first thought of the follower of Izaak Walton. He communicated the fact to the captain in the narty and at the same time expressed sur- prise that with that handfcap it was a_wonder they found ice on the pond. The elder, who has an enviable repu- tation for his cooking ability, then hastened to shore and began to beat the dipper into an unrecognizable bunch of tin. As soon as he had com- pleted the obliteration and returned to | the ice, up went the first tilt and there. after eleven of the prettiest pickerel were drawn forth. Vested Choir at Sheltering Arms. On Sunday afternoon at the Shelter- the vested choir of Christ Episcopal church conducted a pleasing service. Rev. Mr. Carey spoke inspiringly and PARTIES UNITED ON COUNTY CANDIDATE. Unique Distinction Held by C. D. Noyes as Result of Caucus. The republican senators and repre- sentatives of New London county show- ed a commendable spirit of fairness when, on Tuesday, after the county meeting, they invited the democrats to remain with them and take part in the aucue for the nomination of a candi- date for county commissioner, says a Hartford correspondent. The motlon to extend the invitation to the demo- crats was made by Representative Whiton of New London in a happy lit- tle speech. The invitation was accept- ed by the democrats, who greatly ap- preciated the courtery which was shown them. The caucus resulted in the nomination of Charles D. Noyes by a unanimous vote, in which the demo- crats as well as the republicans were represented. Mr. Noyes will have the unique distinction of being the choice of both political parties in New Lon- don county. It is not recalled just now that there is another coun commis- sioner in the state who can say that he is the unanimous choice of both parties in his county. It is not very often in the public life of this state that a can- didate for a position receives the en- dorsement of his county or town with- out regard to part: AT BROADWAY THEATER. The Blue Mouse. On Saturday afternoon anl evening there were good sized audiences at the Broadway thealer to see The Blue Mouse, one of C e Fiteh's farcical comedies in three acts which was elaborately staged, with rich costumes | and a company of clever people. It is one of those plays with com- plicated situations, where people are ed off as someone else to overcome acles, but which results in all kinds of amusing incidents as the com- plexity increases, A clerk in a rail- road office, desiring the officie of di- vision superintendent, knowing the weakness of his president, hires a wo- man to act as his wife and wheedle him Into appointing the clerk as super. It is the woman known as the Blue Mouse w m he hires, and in that role E iyan was very clever. As the president, Albert Gran was the foxy husband who liked Jovely company and gave a pleasing interpretation of the role and the work of Robert Dempster as the clerk was likewise fine. The pe- culiar situations that resulted from that alliance by proxy were highly en- tertaining, The president's wife, in ich part Lillian Hall made a pitia- but loving yet distrustful wife, by force of circumstances was introduced to the clerk's udo-wife as the real one, although she was on the warpath for the Blue Mouse, as she had heard her husband was fond of her. The pres- ident himself ‘mistook the clerk’'s real wife, the part which Effie Warner played with grace and finish, for the Blue Mouse, and paid her attention as such, not having been acquainted with the famous person before, The real lover of the Blue Mouse was frantic when he was presented to her as the clerk’s wife, this deception being made up the effort for ally landed. Once secu! ble t ere given fine support, and the audience received the play with much enthusiasm, there be- ing a number of curtain calls.
