Friday morning there was a meeting of the amusement committee, N. J. Ayling chairman, at which there was ‘before them a proposition from Charles Meitmann, agent for Captain Baldwin, owner of the airship Califorria Arrow.

By the propo- sition there will be two ascensions each day, one at 10 a. m, and the other about 4 p. m. The airship would circle about the city and descend where it started. The falr grounds, it was thought, would be a fine place for the ascension. Norwich council, No. 720, of the Royal Arcanum, had before it at its meeting this week the regular invita- tion to take part in the coming 250th anniversary celebration. It was voted not to parade, but instead the sum of $10 was named as the council’s contri- bution. As the result of a recent meeting of the publiclty committee, F. O.

Norwich may well take pride in se- curing so fine a specimen of the Quercus Alba (or white oak) as that transplanted this week in Mohegan park. Aside from its historic interest, it is a perfect tree 14 years of age and ten feet in height. The erimson foliage is very attractive, many of its leaves remaining on through the win- ter untl loosened by the swelling buds of spring. Its history is authentic, dating from 1847, the birth of the par- ent tree, now standing In Bushnell purk, Hartford, rear the capitol, whei Samitel Whitmaz, a young graduate of sle, during a search for fringed gentian, picked sn acorn from under lace and the old’ oak on the Wyllis planted it in a flower p placed in its present location at 19 years of age.

The brici notice of 'the - death of Judge Henry L. Palmer of Milwaukee, Wis., published in the papers some days since, should be more fully sup- plemented, as he had In this city some very devoted friends, especially among the Masonic fraternity, who knew something of those rare traits of character which marked his career as a most distinguished member of that order. Born in Pennsylvania in 1819 and attending the common schools of his native town, his family removed to West Troy, N. Y., where he lived from 1836 to 1849, Soon after his removal he began to read luw and was admitted to the bar in 1843 practicing in West Troy till 1849, when he was compelled by ill- ness to seek a more congenlal climat This he found at Milwaukee, where he resumed the practice of his profession, He soon entered politizal life and was repeatedly elected to the legislature of ‘Wisconsin representative and sen- ator, and was twice chosen speaker of he house. He also held various coun- ty and municipal offices until chosen attorney for and a trustee of the then infant life Insurance company since known as the Northwestern Mutual, of which he became pres.dent in 1879. This office he held for thirty-four years, resigning, with the consent of the trustees, a ve-- short time before his death, when nearing his 20th birthday. ‘When his connection with the com- rany began its capital was about two hundred thousand dollars. When it ¢nded its gross assets were over two hundred and thirty millions. Not only did Judge Palmer !mpress the power of his personality upon the policy of the company to which he gave his life, but he managed its every de- tail with that rigid economy which so marked his personal career. ‘The family life of Judge Palmer was as simple and beautiful as his busines life was honorable and distinguished, He dled full of years and honors—In the firm faith and trust of a Christian. The leading pape: writes of him thus: “Active in politics, honored repeated- Iy with official position, he never was approached by suspicion.
