Body of Bristol Seaman Who Was Killed in Australia to Be Brought Home. Mrs. Wallace H. Young of Bristol, who has been endeavoring to have thae body of her son. Fred London. brought to this country from Albany. West Aus- tralia, where he was buried last Sep- tember, has received word from that place that through the efforts of the United States consul general at Mel- bourne, arrangements have been made to have the body exhumed and ship- ped to Bristol, where he will be inter- red at West (CCemetery. Seaman London, who was a mem- ber of the crew of the U. S. 8, Iili- nois, was killed last September while coaling =hip at Albanv. West Austra- lia. Two bags of coal _fell on him while he was going down the ladder and he llved but a few hours. The crew immediately raised over $400 and purchased a beautiful monument which was placed over his grave. This has necessitated considerable delay, as it had to be removed before the body conld be exhuraed Mrs. Young will endeavor to have the memonial brought to this coun- try some time, but it is a very ~xpen- sive task, the duty and freight being ahout $200 and the monument will have to be entirely taken apart and reset Mr. 1ondon was a Brista] boy and educat:d in the Bristol schools.

And now. if The Bulletin will kindly pardon this innovation, the writer would like to say a word in apology for his “sin of omission” in his letter of last week, in not giving credit to the few—very few—members of “Leg- islature 1909.” Among them Senator Alsop from Avon, and the member frem Griswold, J. W, Payne, who are not mere units on a caucus list, but on the contrary have individual free- dom in their minds, and the courage of justice in their hearts, and un- daunted by trial and failure are still ready, despite legislative injustice, to fight for the people’s rights. To those who ignored the wishes of the people in the “Legislature of 1908 the writer would also apologize. If he has said anything that—he is sorry for —he is glad of it!s J. W.. MILLER. Bristol, Conn., Aug. 4th, 1909 The Wonderful Feature. Mr. Bditor:—In today’'s Bulletin Mr. Charles H. Talcott calls attention to 2 remarkable number, 142,857, with which I have been familiar for years, but fails to show its most wonderful feature, i. e, that when multiplied by 2, 3, 4 5 and 6, the same figures ap- pear each time in the same order, but ocoupying different positions. Can any of your readers give a num- ber, or set of figures as remarkable as the above? E. P. ROBINSON. Packerville, Con Sept, 1, 1909, A Problem. Mr. Editor:—I notice that Mr. Charles H.- Talcott is quite a mathe- matician and presents very curious figures. I would like to hrave Mr. Tal- cott solve the following mathematical problem: Given $1,000—no more, no less. l.oan 11 men $100 each and have $10 left. The answer is, to find how the 11 men ‘can pay the debt they contract with only $1,000? This is a practical, every-day problem, and I hope Mr. Talcott, or.any other ex- pert on figures will solve it J. C. VALLETTE. North Franklin Conn., Sept. 7, 1909. FOSTER SCHOOL. Eleventh Annual Reunion Held at Hampton—Twenty-one Respond to Roll Call. The eleventh ;I;;l reunion of the C. C. Foster high school was held at Hampton Thursday, September E Grange hall. In the morning ception was held and at noon an ex- cellent dinner was served. School opened at 1.o'clock with Auld l.ang Syne. This was followed by a welcome address ably sgiven by Dr. James E. Stetson of New Haven. He paid high tribute to Mr. Foster and his success as a teacher, narrated many pleasant reminiscences of high school days end of schoolmates passed beyond the Great Divide. In response, the veteran teacher spoke of the joy it gave him to meet again his pupils after more than fifty vears A paper, entitled In Memoriam, was read by Sarah A. Tiffany, after which Edward B. Bennett told of the noble and useful lives of the Taintor boys and William H. Bennett, who passed away last year. Roll Call. The roll call was answered by twenty-one members in various ways. Allen Jewett recited Launch of the Ship, and [.ord Allen’s Daughter, and several other poems. George Starkweather and Joseph Starkweather gave musical selections. The former sang and Jacob nlaved the violin. Recess announced, dancing began. Money Musk was led by George Holt, a boy of fourscore years. Students were present from Mon- treal, Canada, Nebraska, Worcester, Northampton, Mass., Putnam, Willi- mantic and nearby towns. It was voted to meet next year. The class flower was the sweet pea. RARE INDIAN CURIOS. Destroyed During Recent Rockville. The recent loss by fire of the large and valuable collection of relics, cu- rios, owned by L. E. Thompson of Rockville, was most unfortunate. The collection included thousands of pieces, apd had been for some years at Mr. Thomson’s rooms on Union street, but were stored at the lower landing build- ing at Snipsic lake, as ke needed the ryon for cther furposes.. Mr. Thomp- son had been at work on the 2o0llec- tion for over 30 years, and it included the finest collection of Indian relics ever secured in this section of the state, and especially of value as ogn- nected with the Indian history of Tol- land county. He secured nearly all of ithem in the vicinity of Snipsic grove and Snipsic lake. They included a great variety of implements of war, cooking utensils, arrow heads, and the like. He had over a peck of stone ax heads of all sizes. History shows that there were mo ‘tribes that inhabited the shores of Lake Snipsic, but it was the favorite hunting and fishing grounds for a number of different tribes, who often spent much time on the shores of the lake, The Indians named tha lake “Schnepipsit,” mean- ing “good hunting ground.” They made their camps usually on the eastern shores, near what is now known as Sucker brook. The Nipmuck indians, who had their' main settlement in the southern towns of Massachusetts, largely controiled the hunting grounds about the lake, although the Podunk Indians, from the reigiiborhood of East Hartford and East Windsor often hunted there. The collection included | a good array of arrow heads of all sizes, many being of black flint stone, and that stone is not found within 500 Fire in miles of the lake. He had a large collection of money and coins from many countries, minerals, implements of war and many curios from all parts of the world. Bitten by a Monkey.
