SHITK'S 1B, STOBE|= mmlls-ne. lonu. . lmunl of steamboating on t.h- Thames river, Avery C. Smith, man aging owner of the steamer Sioht Sl&r. on Tuesday referred to the many which h:\m plied the river In past. Because of his connection with several of the steamers which have been run from this city, he has been particularly interested in learning of all those which used to make this city their starting point. He referred to the recent reading of an interesting book, Old Steamship Days on the Hudson, by David Lear Buckman, which caused him to think how in- teresting it would be if someone would take the time to gather the data in an intercsting way tell the story of the Thames, our own beautiful riv- en the seat of much boating activity since early days. Norwich has built many steamers and owned and controlled first and last a list of them that would surprise most everyone to hear about. “My memory,” said Mr. Smith, “on- ly goes back to the steamers New York and Boston of the Norwich line that occasionally came to our wharves and the smaller though more regular visitors to our piers, the City of Law- rence and the City of Norwich, this lnm still in existence on the Hud- "l‘here was also the steamer Dela- ‘ware, operated between Norwich-and New York by an independent company, which now run the Chelsea on the same line, The Old Ella. “Then In the summer season there was the Ella, which, by the way, had quite a lengthy and noted career. This old boat I was pretty well ac- quainted with, and I have heard much: about her even recently from one of her old captains, Edward Smith of New London. “The Ella was run on the Thames from 1871 to the year 1903, a period of 33 years, and I hardly think any other steamer ever made Norwich its home port_for so long a time. “She was bullt at the Oldfield yards, Mystie, Conn., in tHe year 1864, by Mallory & Co., for the excursion bus- iness in nearby waters. She was then taken south to fill a government con- tract during the civil war, and Capt. Edward Smith was In charge ail through the thrilling experiences that came to her. She was used for vari- ous purposes. At one time she was despatch boat between Fortress Mon roe, Va., and the surrounding vicin- ity. At other times she was used to carry troops up and down the Chesa- peake bay, to make raids upon the guerillas up the many rivers in afd around the Hampton roads country. On one occasion she went up the Nan cymund river with General Grahai fiotilla with a detachment of 250 sol- diers and captured a rebel battery at the head of the river. The steamer led a charmed existence during the war. Not an accident happened to her and none of the rebel shots directed at her ever did her any harm. “She was used as headquarters boat at White House Landing in Virginia, and Generals Sheridan, Custer and Roberts lived on board of her there for some time before the capture of the rebels’ stronghold, the city of Richmond, by the union forcel Blocked legllwn. At Jones Landing, Dutch Gap, Va., the Ella towed a vessel loaded with Sidos a.'.‘lw.xumu-h 1817—l.ut RoulhOHThuWndeCuh. stone there, tlma l ‘fih did m best to disable he/r but all to no ‘When Gcn.NohunLuuuwuln command at mn-m Monroe and Jef- ferson Davis prsioner there, G:‘IIG::.\ Miles Ill!d the Ella as his private vessel Dllflll" the winter Of 1865 f-\l. Ilh operated on the St. Johns river, ln F‘loridl. She was then sold to Bos- ton parties and taken from there to Portland, Me., where she ran several seasons. In the year 1871 the late Palmer Smith, who was identifled for many years with steamboating on the Thames, chartered the Ella and put her on the Norwich and Wach Hill route. The next season he organized th Norwich, New London and Watch Hill Steamboat company and purchased the boat, and the ‘same company prac- tically operated her for the ramnndzr of her days. In the year 1903 she blew out her steam chimney while off l(ystlu 1sland nd was towed in and lald up and lold thus ending her active carser. he was bought by a party in Athen- , N. Y., and towed there, She was tled up alongside a wharf and during the winter season was cut down by an ice floe and sunk, being raised the following spring, taken to Hudson, N. Y., and broken up for the old_metal she contained. Her pilot house has found its way to Kingston, N. Y., and is still doing duty as ‘a chicken coop, and even to this day bears the name Ella. ‘There is also a reminder of the old craft remaining in this vicinity. At Fishers Island the house that covered the main companionway and also fig- ured as a smoking room ie used as 4 place of abode by a washerwoman, and it is said still bears the traces of the rebel Lullets. Her Successors. During the height of the Ella's suc- cessful career the steamer G. R. Kel- sey made her appearance on the river, and she was operated by an opposition company, who eventually were Instru- mental in bringmng oui the steamer Blocic Tsland, which has just closed its 28th season here. Also about this time the steamer Favorite made trips to Fishers Island, The steamer Gypsy was also run two trips & day on the river from 1898 to 1903, inclusive, and during the season of 1904 the steamer Margaret was op- erated on the Norwich-Watch Hlll route. The seasons of 1908 and 1909 have seen the steamer Sightseer mak- ing two round trips each day on the river. Many Older Boats. There's plenty of material for an interesting story, continued M. Smith, especially about the older boats—The Thames, Angelina, Sunbeam, Water ‘Witch, Water Lily, Tiger, Lily, Escort, W. W. Coit, Golden Gate, Panamac, Jenny Lind, Atlantic, Knickerbocker, New London, Shetucket, Quinebaug, Trumbull, Charles Osgood, Decatur, Gereral Jackson and many others of which I have not been told. One of our local historians says: In 1817 the first steamboat began running on the Thames, the Fulton, Captain Bunker; after the Fhlton the H. E. Eckford, Captain Davison. Then the Fanny and so on. NORWICH PEOPLE ELECTED ON EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Workers on Charitable Institutions of State Organize. Persons interested in the work of the charitable institutions of the state, at the invitation of the state board of charities, met in conference at the capitol at Hartford Tuesday. Govern- or Weeks acted as temporary chair- man, giving an address in the course of which he called attention to the fact that the last general assembly approved estimates amounting to $2,- 189,078 for the maintenance of the state criminals and unfortunates. In the public institutions of the state, he said, there were 2,600 unfortunates and law breakers, and 4,000 in (he public and private insane asylums. A permanent organization was ef- fected by the election of the follow- ing officers: President, Senator Flavel S. Luther; vice presidents, Mayor Edward W. Hooker, Hartford; Professor H. A Farnam, New Haven; H. H. Bridge- man, Litchfield; E. J. Garvan, Hart- ford, and P. B. Sibley, Brook Treasure . 'W. Clark, and secre- tary, C. P. Kellogg, Waterbury. The following with above officers, ‘were appointed as an executive com- mittee: T. B. Bradstreet, Thomaston; Gardiner Greene, Norwich; Rev. H. H. Kelsey, . W. Smith, D. 1. Green and J. M. Griswold, Hartford; H. H. Spooner, Kensington; L. S. Johnson, New Britain; Rev. J. T. Neale, Terry- ville; A. McMathewson, New Haven; Mrs. F. A. Mitchell, Norwich, and Dr. G. L. Porter, Bridgeport. Mrs. Mitchell of the state board of charities was prevented by sickness from attenting. Dr. Pollock of the Norwich Satte hospital for the insane, sald he was glad of the movement for the organ- ization of the conference. Dr. Noble of the Connecticut hos- pital for the insane said that some- thing must be done in regard to the amount of money paid by the tax- pavers. He was glad the temper- ance movement is taking root all over the state. The cultivation of temper- ance will keep many out of the insti- tutions of the state. He referred to the importation of aliens who had come into the coumtry in violation of the laws, though, perhaps, that was merely a drop in the bucket. SELECTMAN LATHROP ON JURY.

A remarkably vivid rainbow Tues- day evening just before sunset, fol- lowed in a few hours by clearing weather after the continued wet spell, gave ground for credence in this as a sign of fine weather. Those who were weatherwise repeated the old saying: “Rainbow at night, the sailor’s delight,” and cheered themselves with the hope of a fine day Wednesday. The rainbow came about 5.20 o'clock and continued for about twenty min- ites, projected againat a background of dlll f.fi clouds with such distinct rilliant coloring as to attract unlvnrui attention from all on the street, and every eye was turned tow- ards the east while the beautiful pl ture lasted. So clear and bright were the colors of the bow that every one of the seven primary colors of the spectrum could easily be distinguished from the red of the outer rim to the delicate violet on the inner circum- ference. The bow was a perfect one without a break from herizon to hori- zon and of almest equal brilllancy at all points, an rare condi- It was alse a double rl.lnbv', the second higher up than th first and very mueh dimmer, develop. ing after the first ralmbow had been Ssen for several minutes.
