Norwich guests weye present at the wedding in St. Bridget's church, Man- chester, Monday morning, when Miss Vellie Frances Hickey, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Michael J. Hickey of Talcottville, became the bride of Ed- ward W. Lawler of Westfield, Mass. The bride was attended by her cousin, Miss May McGinm, and John Hickey as the best man. The bride's gown was of white net trimmed with Irish lace over silk. She wore a bridal veil, caught with orange blossoms and car- ried a shower bouquet of bridal roses. During the ceremony, which was per- formed by the Rey. Father Murp! pastor, Miss Ella Murphy rendered “O Promise Me.” Following the ceremony a reception was held at the home of the bride's parents in Talcettville, af- ter which a wedding breakfast was served. National Traveling Men. Many young men look forward to a position as a commercial traveler, when, with grips and sample trunks, they shall gad about the world, sell- ing their wares while the “house” foots the expense account. It is a great business, and profitable to many; also frequently the stepping stone to bet- ter things. But it has its disadvant- ages, such as poor hotels, and the ne- cessity of getting business. Perhaps the voung man who feels the lure of the road had better enter politics. There are to be found the traveling snaps. Nothing to sell, nothing to do, and a liberal expense allowance from the “house,” which is the treasury. Look over these national traveling men and see if commerce offers any- thing so fine. One group of twenty or more senators and representatives is doing Europe, cruising up and down rivers and canals and seeing the siglits, while the government pays the bill. Another bunch of legislators is going to Hawaii to look around. Perhaps they will continue the journey to the Orient. No doubt the “house” will stand for it. Another group has been touring the cool mountain states, irrigating projects and trout are found. Lately, over the west, traveled a group of New York legislators, inquiring about primary elections, and how many others from different states and from the federal government are gadding would be hard to say. There are plenty of these berths for the politi- clan who can deliver the votes. And the people seem unable to stop it; hence young men might as well get their share.—Atchinson (Kan.) Globe. Summer Drownings, The month of June for many years has led the rest of the months for death by drowning. The total number of lives lost this year by months is as follows: January, 167; February, 208 March, 151; April, 210; May, 631; June, 1,176; July, 951. In seven months 8,650 persons in our country have been drowned. Then to offset such an item, we clip a tel aph report from Portsmouth, N. H.: “During the last week the sum- mer cottagers along the Rye Beach coast, among whom are many expert swimmers, have gathered at Wallis Sands to witness the feats perform- ed by Mrs. Patrick Burns of Dover, H. Mrs. Burns, who is 86 years old, has no equal as a swimmer at these beaches, and takes a dip in the waters of the Atlantic every fair day. The daily sea bath has been her custom for years.” It is pitifully trite to say it, chief cause of drowning is knowing how to swim. Some day - will be thought a disgrace fora yout! to be ignorant of swimming in a land which has a seacoast and inland waterways.—QCollier's Wieekly. A Fallen ldol. The “human fish” of the swimming races is being ousted by the “man bird” of the flying rates.—New York American.

William D. Carpenter. The death of William D. Carpenter occurred about three o'clock Thursday afternoon at his home in Westerly after a year's illness with heart trouble. He was in his 71st year. Mr. Carpenter was born at Charles- town, R. I, and for many years fol- lowed the coasting and steamboat bus- iness. He at one time resided at Brew- ster's neck where he was well known, but moved from theret a number of years ago. He will be remembered by the old residents and these who were connected with steamboating from Norwich. He was at one time mate on the City of Norwich. After giving up steamboating 30 years ago he be- came a carpenter and was emploved by Maxson & Co. in Westerly. He was a man of excellent characteristics and his death was learned with deep regret by his many friends. He was a member of the Seventh Day Baptist church and of the Royal Arcanum. He is survived By his wife and three children, Walter, erecting engineer for the General Electric company, and Misses Bessie and Elsie Carpenter of Westerly. He leaves two sisters, Mrs. John Davis of Providence and Mrs. Al- bert Perkins of Fort Point. Joseph E. Carpenter of Fort Point is a nephew of the deceased. Ebenezer Adams. The death of Ebenezer Adams oc curred at his residence in Roxbury Masz., Tuesday. at the age of 72 years. Mr. Adams was born in Bozrah, the son of Daniel Teft Adams and Lydia Potter Adams. He came to Norwich when a young man and during the cf il war was a contractor supplying fire- arms to the government. He was em- ployed Licre for severpl years in the firearms manufacturing plants, and then locate in New Haaven, where he tock the superintendency of a plant. About thirty years ego he went to Bogton %fl wasa in a government tion for some time, but of late eabs he had lived a retired life. Dur- ing" his early life he accumulated a e amount of money by his shrewd executive ability. He married Matiida Ward In_this city and kis wife and a daughter, Mat- tie, who reside at home, and a son, Fred, employed by the government in Los An%ei. Cal., survive. Mr. Adains was a Mason and a man of fine character and of very hop able nature. He was a sousin of Henry J. Adams and Mrs. Lucretia Adams of 42 Lafayette street is a sister-in-law of the deceased. Mohegan Wigwam Festival. The Mohegan wimwam festival was well attended on Thursday afternoon and also in the evening, when the moonlight was an added attractive feature. People from this city, Mont- ville and New London made up the good sized gathering at the wigwam. The North Pole. Tell me not, in mournful numbers, that the pole will ne’er be found; we'll have crossed the arctic regions ere six months have rolled around. Men are daily making pledges that the pole they soon will gain, not with dogs and cumbrous sledges, not by drifting on the main, but by sailing through the breezes in the airship surnamed “Scat;” and no more Dame Science sneezes at fantastic schemes like that. When the wondrous craft has hovered o'er that waste of snow and sleet, and the north pole is discovered, then our joy should be complete. If you ask me why the finding of the pole should banish woe, and the troubles that are grinding—I'll be jiggered if I know! But so many men have hunted for that pole, in days of yare, and have died in ways un- wonted on the silent, frozen shore; and 20 many ships a-sailing from the har- bor ne’er returned; and so many wom- en, wailing, for their loved and lost oneés yearned; and so many bones are lying on the glaciers and the floes, and 80 many ghosts are sighing in the wil- derness of snows; and s0 many now are freezin’, trudging nerthward, mile on mile, that, of course, it stands to reason, the old pole must be worth while!

LIQUOR DEALERS UNCERTAIN ABOUT CLOSING LAW Claim Made TP;—-( by Changed Law the Saloons Must Shut at 10 After Octo- ber First. The licensed liquor dealers in this city were somewhat disturbed when | the report reached them that, under | the act passed by the long-lived leg- | islature of 1909, all places where Ii- quors are sold would have to close at 110 o'clock at night on September 1. | If that was the case the liquor dealers didn’t know it and they were some- | what anxious over it but none closed as the city had fixed the hour at 11. There was the same uncertainty in Hartford, but an official gave out the statement that the bill passed by the legislature of 1909 was exactly the | same as the law now on the statute book governing the closing of places where liquor is legally sold, except that where the words “10 o'clock” are sub- tituted for “I11 o'clock” in Chapter 2,700 of the revishn of 1902, There is nothing in connection with the bill of 1909 which says when the bill shall be- come effective, but the legislature passed an act that all acts, unless oth- erwise specified, would become effec- tive on Ocotober 1. Section 2,700 ol the revision of 1902 reads as follows: “E person licensed to sell spir- ituous and intoxicating liquers, and the servant or agent of any such li- censed person, who shall, between 11 o'clock at night and 5 o'clock on the following norniug, keep open any place, apartment, store or room where such liquors are sold, exchanged or given away, shall be subject ‘to the penalties of Section 2 provided, that the provisions of Section 2,699 and this section shall not apply to any person when selling under a drug- | gist’s license, and that the towns or the municipal authorities of any city, borough, or town may fix the time of closing at any hour not later than 12 o'clock at night.” In Hartford it is held by men learned in the law that unless some action is taken between now and October 1 all of the licensed places in Hartford will have to dispense with the sale of liquor at 10 o'clock at night. that being the latest hour that liquor can be sold aft- er September 30. The law as drawn applies to hotels as well as to saloons. The law not only applied in Hartford but all of the towns where liquor licenses are now in force. In some of these places, according to legal opinion, special town meetings will have to be called to vote on the question, but it was thought that in cities the hour of closing could be submitted to the common council on petition to the mayor. Just what will be done in Hartford, a member of the Hartford Liquor Dealers’ association did not know, but unless some action is taken by the common council or by the general vote all licensed dealers will have to shut up shop at 10 o'clock at night. The matter may be submitted to the common council or a general election may be called. r )\ Incidents in Society\J fi Principal H. A. Tirrell and family returned on Wednesday from a stay at Cape Cod.
