BROKE HIS LEG AVOIDING CAR Danlel Traynor, Formerly of Norwich, Picked Up Above Plainfield—Taken to Hospital. The 10.43 electric car from Plainfield on Friday night had on board Daniel Traynor, of Providence, aged 67, who in getting out of the way of & car at the railroad track stumbled and broke his leg and was lying beside the track when Pilat Lewls noticed him and w to als assistance, Policemen Kane and Morgen assisted him from Franklin square to police station, a large broom being turned upside down, and the in- jured man used it as a crutch. Dr. J. J. Donohue was called to police station to attend the man, which he did, and he was sent to the Backus hospital shortly after midnight. The car crew were Motorman Tubbs and Conductor Evans, As the car was going north from Plainfield to Central Village, about a half mile beyond Plainfield, Traynor was sean beside the track. An investi gation was made and finding the man injured, he was placed aboard the car and taken to Central Village and then brought here. Mr, Traynor states that he was walking along the track when he saw a car coming and in his hurry to get out of the way he tripped on the track and fell, causing the painful in- jury, which will keep him in the hos- pital for some time. He managed to drag himself out of the way of thie car. His left leg was broken. The injured man was at one twme a resident of this city, baving come here about 1896, and was made a voter. He then lived on Mechanio street in Pres- ton, but later moved to No. 1 Fourth street. He was employed by the bleachery at that time, but for the past nlne years has called Providence his home.

The Otis Itbrary has recently added to its department of literature, ten large volumes, edited by Hon. Justin McCarthy, bearing the simple title, “Irish Literature.” In compiling this work the editor has had the assistance of a large corpg of special editors and contribu- tors, including, among others, Dr. Maurice Francis Egan, James Jeffrey oche, Stephen Gwynn, Prof. W. P. Trent, W, B. Yeats and Professor H. S. Pancoast. The work is composed of blographi- cal sketches of various Irish authors, with selections from their works, and is prefactd by an essay on Irish liter- ature by the editor in chief. Numer- ous other essays on various phases of the subject are contributed by others best qualified to treat of these phases. The nationality of many of the au- thore in the collection Is well known, but it will, perhaps, be a surprise to many to learn that such scholars and statésmen as the Hon. James Bryce, Dean Swift, and the historian Lecky are Irishmen. This valuable addition to the lfbrary will, it ig believed, be useful not only to those whose nationality attracts them to It, but to all students and readers.

Officers Much Pleased on Their Inspec- tion Trip—New Upper Deck, State- rooms, Electric Lights and Lifeboats. M. B. O'Loughlin, the president of the Norwich and New York Propellor company, and A. P. Browning, the su- perintendent and gemeral manager, both of New York, have been at Noank inspecting the rebuilt Chelsea, which will resume its place on the line next week. Both were highly pleased with the work and it is through their work that the boat has been rebuilt, as they have been hard workers for the build- ing up of the line. From a kerosene lighted craft the boat has been changed to a modern electric lighted steamed. It has a new gold leaf nameplate on the front of the pilot house, and will in some ways re- semble the Portland liners. She hag recelved a new upper deck which contains about forty new state- rooms fitted in the latest style, Each room has two berths fitted with new bedding, electric lights and modern sanitary wash bowls. For the second class passengers there has been a ladies’ and men's cabin fitted up, with accommodations for about 40 people in all, and equip- ped with all the improvements. A fine jarge dining saloon is located on the forward part of the upper deck, To the left of this is the galley, or cook’s quarters, which has all new fittings including a large new refrigerator of the latest pattern. The toilets on the boat are entirely new, being all mod- ern open plumbing and sanitary in every detail. On the hurricane deck is located the quarters of the uniformed crew and these are all fitted with the comforts of home. The machinery has been ov- erhauled and is in first class condi- tion. A new dynamo has been installed in the engine room and the boat is now wired throughout for electric lights. She also has a new large powerful | searchlight and all the signal lights will be electric. craft, seats are bein ginstalled for the comfort of the passengers In warm weather. For the safety of the pas- sengers, six new life boats and two new life rafts have been built and with the 400 new life preservers she is doubly equipped for the number of passengers she will carry. A new device has been used In placing the life boats. Instead of the guard rafl on the hurricane deck where the boats are kept being built on the edge of the deck. it is set about two feet back and a space left open for the lie boats to occupy. The cause of this change is that should it be necessary to have to use the boats there will be plenty of room to work on, without tearing the rail away, as there has been in numerous cases. The material used in the rebuilding is of the finest. Not only the passenger but the freight carrying capacity is made larg- er by the rebuilding. Marines May First. A detachment of United States ma- rines will come on May 1 to occupy the new barracks and the station at the Navy yard, which have just been made ready for occupfiu;'x‘ The brick building at the navy yard, which was used in stormy weather as a drill hall, before the station became nbsulelfl, h: been rebullt, enlarged and remodele: to_accommodate the marines. There will be 100 men and officers and the furnishings and supplies for these are being assembled. | New drink bill in 1908 was $16,760,000, than 20,000 more in 1007, On the decks of the | DELIGHTFUL MUSICALE BY MRS. ANTHONY PECK. Nine Charming Numbers Given by Miss Peck and Miss Vedder at Nor- wich Club. Mrs. Anthony Peck gave a most de- lightful musicale on Friday afternoon at the Norwich club. The decorations were of laurel, hemlock, palms and smilax charmingly arranged and light- ened with pale pink azaleas and car- nations of a beautitul shade, Recelv- g with Mrs. Peck were Miss Lucile eck and her guest, Miss Ida Mae Vedder of Troy, N. Y. Miss Peck and Miss Vedder gave a fine musical pro- gramme of nine numbers for violin and plano. The first two pleces were by Miss Peck, with plano acoompaniment by Miss Vedder. These were Scharwen- ka's Legends and d’Ambrosio’s Canz- onetta, glven in beautiful style, and with much expression. Miss Vedder followed with two piano solos, a curi- ous composition by Ravina, the Petit Bolero, and the Danse Creole by Cha- minade, which was akilfully rendered. The cholcest part of the programme was De Beriot's Concerto, No. 9, play- ed by Miss Peck and Miss Vedder with skill and understanding, which brought out the exquisite niceties of this beau. tiful work. Miss Vedder also did good executlon in Grieg's An den Fruhlinj and Mosgowski's Alr de Ballet, an Miss Peck was charming in The Swan by Saint-Saens, and Kufawiak by Wi- eniawskl. ~Mrs. Thomas Perkins and Mrs. Willlam Palmer served ices and coffee from the pretty tea tables in the porch. Assisting were Miss Maud Carew_Buckingham, Mrs, Job Taylor, Miss Ruth McClenathan, Miss Amelia | Arnold and Miss Elizabeth _Pullen. There were a large number of guests and many handsome costumes were worn. YALE COMMENCEMENT. The Week Earier Plan Does Not Go | Into Effect Until 1910. The announcement that the date of the Yale-Harvard boat race has been fixed for July 1 will probably make it necessary to do some explaining to those persons who have got the notlon in their heads ‘hat eommencement comes a_week earlier this vear, says the New Haven Register. Although the announcement wasg carefully made at the first that the change in date of commencement does not take place until 1910 some at once began indus- triously to.spread the misinformation that it began this year. It will be difficult enough to adjust all concerned to the change by next year, and com- mon sense ghouid have taught that as the extra week of summer vacation is to be taken from the Christmas vaca- tion, and the corporation did not make the change until after the first of January, it could not very well go in- to effect until next vear. Jonathan Trumbull Invited. ‘The John Winthrop club of New London has extended an inviation to Jonathan Trumbull of this city to de- liver a memorial address to the club on Thursday evening, May 6. This day is the banner day of the club, which bears the name of the founder of New London. Other speakers will follow the address of Trumbull. A banquet will also be served on this occasion.

AT PEQUOT MILLS. Norwich Owner Has Made Many Im- provements. s Many of the improvements planned by Charles D, White of Norwich, own- er of the Uncasville and Pequot mills, have been carried out during thr win- ter months and now the mill at Pequot is running on the most modren basi The old spinning machinery has been taken out and the rooms are now equipped with modern mules, capable of turning out the best class of work at high speed. A change has been made with the looms, too, the old type ma- chines having been Sold and new ones installed. The mill premises have been overhauled, repaired and painted. It is_understood that Mr. White plans several further changes In the plant in the near future, but the exact time in which these will be carrled out de- pends to some extent upon business conditions. Meanwhile the whole plant is being operated on & ful] time sched- ule, with a larger payroll than for sev. eral vears. Will Report Favorably.
