'Remembering the very successful conduct of the conven- tion here last year, the fire fighters of our neighboring are hard at work on plans to give all their visitors the best kind of a time. All the Norwich companies have elected their representatives to attend the convention, each being entitled to one delegate and one alternate, making the complete list as follows: Chemical No. 3—Delegate, Frank ‘Wangstrom; alternate, John Nolan. Engine No. 1—Deiegate, Charles T. Smith; alternate, Henry R. Taft. Truck No. 1—Delegate, Albert M. Herrick: alternate, Bdward Slattery. Chemical No. 1—Delegate, Henry E. Davis; alternate, John H.

From New London it is reported that funds are coming in slowly from the public, but the firemen are going to put their hands into their own pockets and go ahead with the preparations, It was believed by the New London firemen that in view of the valuable services that they render to the city that there would be no difficulty in se- curing ample_contributions. from citi- zens to provide a banquet to the visit- ors, but when they tried to collect they overed that the respinses were very meagre. There has been much solicitation In New London lately ot money for varous objects, making’ it necessary for many to cal! a halt in their contributions, and the firemen have been slighted larsely because they were among the last to apply. Charles WMMWMM- _ Planned for Visiting Firemen There. z It looked for a while as if the pro- juet would have to be elim- ward about spending their money in entertaining and ey promptly de- clared that if the citizens would not supply the funds they would do so themselves, and the result is that plans have been perfected for a first class spread at the Konomoc hose house on the close of the first day's session of the convention. The Konomocs have all the essentials at the house for pr paring and serving a feast, and as all of the companies will participate there is no question about the tompleteness of the menu or the excellence of the =ervice. It is quite a number of years since the state firemen held a session in the Whaling Town and the local firemen are anxious to do the square thing by the visitors. 1t has been decided to keep open house and all of the com- panies will have something to eat and something to drink on hand for any of the guests who may drop in. It is also likely that a band will be hired and a short parade made from the meeting place to the Konomoc house on_the night of the banquet. Since the last session of the state convention at New London two new companies have been added to the New London departmen:—the Pequots and the Northwesis—both of which organ- izations included many prominent citi- zen in their respective parts of the town. The increase in the membership of the department will make it all the easier to carry the burden of entertain- ing the delegates who will be there to participate in the deliberations of the convention, Merchants and residents of the city have been requested by the several fire company offivers to display flags and bunling from their homes 2nd stores. At the same time as the con- vention the Fire Chiefs’ club of this state holds its annual mestiny. -which will be at 11 a. m, in Elks’ hall. ENTHUSIASM FOR ROQUE.

Mitchell, Formerly of Yantic, Loses Life Trying to Save Plymouth Boy. Rev. Herbert L. Mitchell, who was formerly rector of Grace Episcopal church at Yantic, lost his life in Fishers Island sound Tuesday after- noon in an effort to rescue Clarence Blakesley, who was organist of the church at Plymouth, Conn., where Rev. Mr. Mitchell was rector. The two were members of a party of seven who .had been on a fishing expedition and were returning to their quarters on Mouse Island, off Noank, when young Blakesley was knocked off the bow of the boat by the boom jibing over at a sudden change in the wind. In attempting to save the boy's life Rav. Mr. Mitchell lost his own. The party consisted of Rev. Her- bert L. Mitchell, Howard Lumpkin, Edward_Ives, Roy Hallock, Edwin Tuttle, Harry McBurney and Clarence Blakesley, all of whom belonged in Plymouth’ ecept Hallock, whose home is’in Waterbury. The boys, who were Mr. Mitchell's guests on Mouse Island, where he owns a cottage, had been there since Monday noon. 'They went out on a fishing trip Tuesday morn- ing about 10 and started to return to the island about 12.30. Boom Knocked Blakesley Overboard. The boat was a catboat with an en- gine which they had been using all the morning until they were ready to return home when the mast was put up and the sail hoisted. The boat under sail and with the power wds making good speed when a sudden change in the wind caused the boom of the boat to jibe. Young Blakesley, who was sitting near the bow of the boat, was carried away and swept overboard. Mr. Mitchell, knowing that the boy could not swim, jumped over- board in an attempt to rescue him. As near as can be ascertained from the remaining five boys, he was suc- cessful in reaching Blakesley. Boys Helpless to Handle Engine. The boys in the boat realizing that der assistance attempted to go to their rescue. But not one of the boys un- derstood the art of handling the boat or ho wto stop the engine. In a few minutes the boat was a long distance from the two in the water and nothing could be done to render any assistance. Several of the youngsters realizing that they could in no other way help them threw pillows which were filled with cork: overboard, thinking that they might be able to get hold of them and thereby help themselves until they were rescued. However, the pillows fell short of their mark. Attracted U. S. Transport. In the meantime ome of the- boys saw the U. S. transport Gen. R. B, Ayres approaching them and one of them had the presence of mind to tuke a tin hern and hlow it. The at- tention of Captain Cummings was at- tracted to the youngsters, but at first he pa'@ no attention to them. “There are so many people that attract our attention to them in that and other ways,” said Captain Cummings to a reporter, “that at first I paid no heed to them. So far as I could see there was nothing the matter on board the boat so I thought it was another party of boys who are in the habit of at- tracting our attention for amusement sake. However, they were so per- sistent in their efforts to make us go over to them that I did so and one or the boys managed after a fashion. to tell me the trouble.” Saw Man and Boy Sink. Just before arbiving Captain Cum- mings stopped the boat until he found out what the matter was ana then he steamed to the place where the man and boy went in. On the spot belng pointed out he was just in time to see the man and boy for an instant, the man having his hand above his heal and above water. But only for an instant for they had been up two or three times and were just going down for the last time when he caught a glimpse of them. Bodies Not Recovere. On_ realizing that there was really something the matter Captain Cum- mings ordered two 8 the crew to be in readiness to dJive overboard to the rescue. This Was unnecessary, however, as the pair disappeared be- fore any assistance could be rendered. The Ayres sailed about in the vicinity of where they went down for at least a half hour after, but nothing was seen of either of the bodies. Captain Cummings took the five boys on board and the boat in tow and went to New London. The boys were in a terrible state of mind and it was with some difficulty that they told the story of the accldent. Was Episcopal Pastor. Rev. Herbert 1.
