Browning of Norwich were before the joint commilttee on excise this after- noon regarding the holding of elections on the license question in Norwich every two years, instead of every year, as is possible now if there are twen- ty-five electors of the town who see fit to petition for a ballot on licensé. The committee had before it two bills, both introduced by Mr. Tibbits of Norwich, and both intended to ac- complish the same object, that of pro- vision for blennial license elections instead of annual, but one applies on- ly to the town of Norwich and the other to all of the towns in the state. It was explained to the committee by Mr. Tibbits and thg, Norwich offi- cials that the town of Norwich had done away with annual town elections, except so far as they relate to the election of school visitors and asses- sors, and that there is now before the legislature a measure which will make it lega] for Norwich to elact these officials only once in every two years, When the custom of biennial town elections in Norwich became law, however, there was provision concerning license _elections and it there are those who desire one of these each year, they can bring this about, at an expense to the town of 1ps $2,000 hese gentlemen ‘felt that there was every reason why the law should be changed and in reply to questions by members of the committee expressed it as thelr opinion that if the matter were referred to the people they would Vote Tor Norwmh —_— Hearing Before Excise Com;l:itho—Town Clerk and in‘lntemst of Economy be overwhelmingly in favor of the change. There was no opposition to. either of the bills, though members of the committee feit, and the representatives of the liquor Interests agry with them on this, that the bill ch ex- tended the biennial liquor elections over the state at large was not quite the correct thing. There is no town in Connecticut which now has biennial elections on all questions. A number have changed from annual to biennial town elections and some of the cities have almost done away with the an- nual election, but in no case is it true that there are not some officials who are elected each year and there is ne cessitated an election day annually, on which the license election could be held it desired. H. -H. Spooner, who represents the temperance interests before the leg- islature, while making it plain that he had no thought of seriously o—-os- ing either of the bills, except as he agreed with the thoughts expressed in the paragraph above, stated that in his opinion the bill referring to bi- ennial liquor elections in Norwich only was unnecessary of passage at this time, for it was a healing act when there was nothing to heal, Norwich had not succeeded in doing away altogether with the annual elec- tion and when it hag, and it was man- ifest that for it to be possible for any hody of citizens to frustrate the wish- es of the great majority by bringing on a nelection on this question onlv, was injurious. then it would be pos- sible to get such a bill through the legislature without difficulty, At the same time, he didn't oppose its passage now.

His departure from the mill and his removal with Mrs. Robinson from Taftville, although expected for some time, are regretted by all who have worked under Mr. Robinson and with him and by all who, have felt the charm of Mrs. Robinson’ nersonality. PBorn in England, Mr. Robinson came with his parents to Woonsocket, R. I.. when three years old. After attending the public !chol‘%ll the age of ten, he entered the {: of the Social Cottan Manufacturing company at Woonsocket to learn the business.” In April, 1863, he entered Cook’s machine shop in ‘Wopnsocket, where he served an ap- prenticeship of two years and three months and became qualified ma- chinist. Mr. Robinson spent a year and a half at Pierce academy, Mliddle- boro, Mass, where he distinguished himself for his ability as a student as much as for his skilful workmanship in the machine shop. The trade he again took up after leaving Pierce academy. While working, Mr. Robin- son furthered his education by stud. ing nights. For two years he was em- ployed as master mechanic at Manville, R, I. On Dec. 22, 1873, when 28 years of age, Mr. Robinson became master mechanic of the Ponemah mills, Wil- liam C. Tucker being the superinten- dent at that time, a position which he held until his death in 1890, when he ‘was_succeeded by John Eccles. When Mr. Robinson took charge the only buildings were the central buflding, row No. 1 mill, and an ell. There have been large additions improvements in the milis since Rohinson first came to-Taftville, and the master mechanic's judgment and advice were invaluable - during the many changes. 5 Mr. and Mrs. Robinson are members of St. James’ church,. Woonsocket, but have been regular attendants at tBe Taftville Congregational . church and have been active in church work. Mrs. Robinson has been a valued member of the socleties of the hurch, in each of which she has held the various offices. She Is also a member of the D. A. R. Mrs. Robinson's malden name was Miss Mary Adeluide Hill. Mr. Robinson has held all the chairs in Woonsocket lodge, No. 10, 1. O. O.

He is a membter of Columbian. commandery, No. 4, K. T., and a thirty-second degree Mason, belonging to Connecticut Sove- reign consistory of Norwich. He was chaplain of the Woonsocket lodge. Mr. and Mrs. Robinson will move to Fiast Lyme, where they will make thelr home with relatives of the latter, Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin K. Chapman, Their son, Dr. Joseph Rébingon, 15 a success- ful ‘practitioner in West Cornwall, Conn, and Mr. LADIES’ MISSIONARY SOCIETY. The Problem of the Foreigner Dis- cussed—Mrs. Robinson Resigns. The Ladies’ Missionary society met in the parlors of the Taftville Congre- gational church Thursday afternoon for the usual April meeting. The meeting was called to order by the president, Mrs. Samuel Prentice, who has been unable to attend the last severa] meetings of the soclety ow- ine to severe illness, and it gave the ladies much pleasure to again wel- come her to their midst. The mem- bers of the soclety were grieved to hear the resignation of Mrs. Joseph Robineon as secretary and treasurer. For many vears Mrs. Robinson has been an earnest and indefatigable worker in the soclety and her depart- ure from Taftville calls forth a cen- eral feeling of regret. Her resignation was accepted and Miss Gertrude Young was nominated and elected to fill_the vacancy, The genera] topic for the afternoon was The Foreigner in Our Country and among the varjous phases of the problem discussed were the Bohemi- ans in_Chicago and the Italians in Connecticut. Mrs. Frederick J. Wer- Kking read an original and_thoroughly interesting paper on Emigration, showing its growth since 1836 up to the present time. Others who read papers were Mrs. D. B. MacLane Mrs. George W. Whittlesey, Mrs. Luther D. Packer and Mrs. Charles W. Prentice. Parties for Mr. and Mrs. Robinson. In honor of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Robinson of Front street, who are soon to leave Taftville, a whist was given at the home of Mr, and Mrs. George W. Whittlesey, Thursday eve- ning. A gathering of old friends was present and the evening was delight- tully sed. At the home of Mrs. Charles W.
