Michael’s Parish. ’ In the superior court at Providence Tsesday afternoon Judge Stearns ap- pointed James M. Scott of that city to succeed Henry R. Segar of West- erly, who was acting as .temporary receiver for The Nichols & Langwor- thy Machine Company of Hope Valley. The bond of the reeciver was fixed at $50,000. The hearing on the petition of the Washington Trust company of Wes erly for a permanent receiver occt pied the court’s aitention all Tues- day forenoon and at 1 o'clock Judge Stearns suggested a postponement un- il 4.15 o'clock, the parties Interested in the litigation not having agreed at that time upon the selection of the official in whose hands the company's affairs shotld be placed. Upon adjournment it was announc- ed that counsel for all parties in in- terest had agreed upon Mr. Scott for permanent receiver. Judge Stearns said that no rule ob- tained in this state whereby the court s bound to select a temporary receiver to act in a permanent capacity. court was anxious to place itself on record as casting no reflection upon Henry R. Segar of Westerly, who had been acting as temporary receiver, or his administration of the trust since he ‘had been appointed temporary re- ceiver of the corporation, It seemed unwise, however, said Judge Stearns, to appoinL a man who Was opposed by any Interest of large proportions, as was Mr. Segar. Judge Stearns said that he was personally leased - with the nomination of Mr. cott, and would accordingly make the appointment. The attormeys began the preparation of the usual form of decrees to be en- tered later conferring upon the ap- pointee the powers of a receiver. There was surprise, regret and no little excitement in the village of Wood River Junction, Tuesday evening, when it \was learned that Ray Collins, the fourteen year old son of Nathan Col- lins, had committed suicide by hang- ing. The boy had an evening news- paper route, and, ~ after delivering mewspapers to patrons, returied home and went direct to the barn. . Mrs. Collins called to her son to come te supper, and as he did not answer she went to the barn. She was horrified to find the boy in an empty stall, with a halter tight around this meck, the end tied to a ring in the feed box. He had placed the halter around his neck, and evidently lifted his feet from the floor, giving the strain of the weight of his body on his neck, thereby causing strangulation. Mrs. Collins immediately teleased the boy and summoned assistance. ‘When a physician arrived the boy"s heart showed action, but he dled a few miniites after the doctor arrived. Collins was a bright, studious boy, of cheerful disposition, and the motive for the deed is mystifying. During e Where to Buy in Westerly INDUSTRIAL TRUST COMPANY, Westerly Branch. Capital ; ..

Co.—Ray Collins, 14, Hangs r.imself—Old Armory Site Sold to Seventh Day Churer the ‘last séhool session he attended school in Westerly and was a general favorite with his schoolmaves. When Auctioneer Eugene B. Pendle- ton mounted the ruins of the old state armory. ‘in Main ‘Wednesday morning, for ~the purpose of selling the property under authority of act of the state legislature and by direction of the guarter master general of the state, there were just fifteen persons present, including Quartermaster Geny eral William H. Walker. Among those there were none who wanted the property as an investment, but. the Seventh-day ptist church, represented by Samuel H. Davis and J. Irving Maxson, wanted it as a mat- ter of protection. Edward H. Buf- fum, whose residence is directly op- posite, ‘wanited it for the same pur- pose. / When this became known there was. ump in the bidding, and the property, ‘which was started at a bid of 3500 by Samuel H. Davis, was sold :o him a few minutes afterwards for 650. Although on record in the town clerk’s office, the expected protest from Horace Swan, who claims ownership of the property, did not materialize at the sale. Auctioneer Pendleton described the property, stated the témms of the sale, and gave assurance to bidders that the state of Rhode Island would give am- ple warranty deed to the purchaser. The, lot is about 250 feet deep and 60 feet wide, and desirably located, its real value being from $1,200 to $1,500. The lot adjoins the property of the Seventh-day Baptist church, and be- fore the armory was destroyed by fire the services were frequently disturb- ed, especially on Friday evenings and on the Sabbath day. The buliding was not made solely for military purposes, but was leased for minstrel entertain- ments with brass bands, and for danc- es and other forms of amusement. It ‘was to guard against a recurrence of these conditions that the church de- cided to get control of the property. At the last session of the Rhode Is- land ‘general assembly, a commission composed of Senmators Atchison and Gorton, and Representatives Geddes and Littlefield, the latter first liepten- ant of the Third company, coast ar- tillery, ‘was selected to inspect the Woonsocket armory and to make re- D:,h’l provided for in special appropri- ations. Wednesday afternoon these gentle- men came to Westerly and visited the state armory here for the purpose of getting information that might assist in the improvement of the armory in ‘Woonsocket. The party was met by Capt. Arthu N. Nash,_ordnance officer. Captai Nash e tained the commissioners and -gav® them information of mili- ‘tary necessities in iconnection with the armory. Quartermaster General Walker, who was in Westerly in the morning at the auction sale of the old armory site, desired Information on some matters relating to the present armory and, upon invitation Captain Nash accom- panied him to the armory and assist- ed the quartermaster general in ob- tmining the information desired. A traveling watch dealer from Nor- wich had trouble with a resident of Pierce street, Tuesday night. The name of the local man was kept se- cret anfl the Norwich man returned home soon after the incident. One story was to the effect that on 4 former visit he made a trade of ‘watches with the Pierce street man, which subsequently proved unsatisfac- tory to the latter. When they met Tuesday night there was a row and the Norwich man got the worst of it. The other story is that the Norwich man was exposing some watches for sale; when the Pierce street man pick- ed one’ up and refused to return it. He finally invited the watch man to his home, stating that he would pay for tHe timepiece there. As they were about to enter the house the local man gave the man from Norwich a severe kick, causing severest pain and may result in permanent injury. The Nor- wich man fell and writhed with pain and for a time was unable to stand. He was attended by a physician and went home by the first trolley car, and before the facts came to the knowledge of the police. The lawn fete held Wednesday aft- ernoon and evening by the ladies of 8t. Michael's parish for the benefit of the church was a big success. The groundls were effectively decorated and illuminated and the booths were lib- erally patronized. A feature of the afternoon was the baby show, prizes being given for the lightest and heav- iest and the prettiest dressed babies. In the evening there was music by the “Westerly band. Several valuable awards were made, including a cash award of $35. Local Laconics. There will soon he a meeting of the Central Labor union to talk over the matter of Labor day observance. The choir boys of Christ church, Norwich, arrived at Pleasant View on Wednesday to spend two weeks at their new bungalow. Henry Pennington Toler, a brother of a former Westerly lawyer, and well known here, is in- Bellevue hospital, New. York, under observation as to his: sanity. He considers it necessary to crawl on his hands and knees in the street to gain salvation. There will be three Westerly Sunday schodl picnics today (Thursday). Grace Methodist church picnic will be held at Brightman’s pond, and that of the Broad Street Christian church at We- quetequock casino. Calvary Baptist church will pjcnic at Haley's grove.

Surrounded by a Dozen Hippopotami— He Shoots Two and Others Are Driven Off. ‘ Naivasha, British East Africa, July 21.—Colonel Roosevelt had an exciting experience yesterday, while endeavor- irig to secure a cow hippopotamus. At nine o'clock in the morning, he went out on Lake Naivasha in a rowboat accompanied by two natives. After rowing out some distance from shore, the boat was surrounded by a dozen hippopotami, who attacked the boat, some of them diving under and strik- ing the bottom of it with their backs. The natives became terrified, but Mr. Roosevelt, selecting the finest bull and the largest cow, shot them dead. Even- tually the rest of the animals were driven off. Mr. Roosevelt arrived at the camp at three o'clock this morn- ing, after towing home the spoil with a launch, which was sent out to search for- the rowboat. Kermit Roosevelt has arrived at Naivasha, but the rest of the expedi- tion will not reach here until to- mOrrow.

There is only one way to cure deafness and that is by constitutional remedie Deafness is caused by an inflamed con. dition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is en- tirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its mor- mal condition hearing will be destroy- ed forever; mine cases out of tenm. are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mu- cous surfaces.
