Two solos were given in pleasing voice by two of the younger members of the school, Miss Lillian Calkins singing Christ, the Children’s King, and Carl Kinney singing Under His Wings. The largest part of the hour was taken up with an informal talk by Mrs. Frank A. Roath upon her recent trip around the world. This she made of more than ordinary interest, de- scribing visits to some of the mis- sionary stations, and illustrating her descriptions with objects brought from the foreign flelds.

John Duff at Mohegan park is_now .about half through with the jab of fixing up a playground there, Which he began two weeks ago. He said Monday that he expected to have it finished in about two weeks. This playground is the open level spot conveniently near the Platt ave- nue entrance, being at the head of the first rise of ground that is surmounted when one enters the park at this gate. There has been considerable grading to do to make the playground fit for use, because it was plentifully sprink- led with stones that came to the sur- face and had to be shifted down into the low spots. A walk will probably be run around the west side of the playground and park benches placed where visitors can sit and watch the sports of the childre "THE CLERICUS.

Norwich launch owners whe have come up the river in the last few tvenings are complaining that ~the light is out on the black doiphin at the long reach near Stoddard’s wharf.

Aesam —School Consolidation Norwich has not had as much In- terest displayed at a town election in a long time as there was on Monday when the big noise was over the li- cense question, but when the votes had been counted it was found, to the surprise of all, that there had been a killing on the ‘quiet, and as the result Arthur D. Lathrop, who, for a number of vears past, has been the first se- lectman, was defeated by A. W. Lilli- bridge by 483 votes. The license que: tion” was_decided in favor of licens the vote being license by 445 majority. Everyone Working. Throughout the entire day there had been strenuous work both by the li- cense and no-license men. The work started at six and continued through the day, there being an unusually large rush at the noon hour. At that time there were so many that it is said some had to go away without vot- ing, for lack of time. It took about a half-hour for a person to vote, 50 great was the crush. In the envelope booths the attendants hustled as never before. During the noon hour there were 310 who voted in the First dis- trict, and so fast did they apply for envelopes the attendants were hardly able to supply the demand. This was the same in the Second district and the envelope booth tenders found no time to look about, being kept hust- ling signing the envelopes, which they have to do before giving them out. In the Central district, James Con- way was the first to cast a vote and in the first hour there were 200 who cast their ballots and everyone voted on the license question. In the second hour 140 voted, in the third 160, fourth 230, fifth 190, and sixth 130. During the afternoon there was a steady vot- ing line, and the last ballot was cast by R. C. Plaut just before three o'clock was struck, making the total in the Central district 190S. There were two women who cast votes, one in the morning and one in the after- noon. In the Third district 23 wo- men voted and they all cast democrat- ic ballots. A close vote on the license question had been looked for, but the result showed that where the vote last vear was 292 for license, it had increased this year and all districts except Taft- ville ‘went for license, making a total of 445. There was a much larger vote this year, with more voting on the li- cense question. In some districts the no-license vote was about the same as last year, while the license workers had gotten out more of their support- ers, although the noes had 175 more on their side than last year. It is said that there was little money to be seen in the hands of the workers, although there was the usual number of autos and teame at work at each polling place. In the First district Dr. J. H. Allen provided lunch for some of the workers. The no-license advocates ex- pected victory by a small majority, while the license men expected a thou- sand and some claimed twice that number. The use of the pasters, for the last time, was generous. At tha next year there will be the Australian ballot. There were also many scratches, but both the pasters and scratches were mostly at the top of the ticket. In the outside district the polls closed at two, and very soon it was seen that there had been a general cutting of Selectman Lathrop, something which had gone on without show, and as the returns from the several districts came in showing him beaten, it gradually became recognized that Mr. Lillibridge was the successful candidate, he hav- in- a majority in every district. For second, however, F. E. Beckwith had 140 more votes than W. B. Wilcox, but the last named also beat out Mr. La- throp, so that the board of selectmen for the next two years will be Lilli- bridge, Beckwith and Wilcox. As he did last year, George H. Stan- ton again this year secured the largest vote on the republican ticket, getting 2,456, showing his popularity, Henry Gebrath made a big run on the dem- ocratic ticket, belng but elght votes behind J. F. Sevin and he becomes the third man on the board of relief. James Blackburn, also of the Sixth Qistrict, secured a handsome vote. Although Mr. Lathrop was defeated for selectman, on the tree warden vote he defeated Mr. Lillibridge by 92 votes. School Consolidation. By sixty majority the opponents of school consolidation won out, some aistricts taking more- interest than others in the matter. It was favored in the First, Second and Sixth di tricts, while In the Third, ¥ourth and Fifth It was opposed, especially in the Third and Fifth. Vote Decided by Six. The counting in the outside districts started at two o'clock end in three- quarters of an hour the Sixth district had completed the count. The other SELECTMAN LATHROP DEFEATE —License Voted by Increased Majority—Lillibridge, Beckwith and Wilcox Compose Board of Selectmen Defeated. districts came in soon after and as usual the Central was last to complete the work, it being the largest voting district in the country. Here there were 7712 straight republican and 787 straight democratic ballots, an unusal situation, as it is generally a solid re- publican district. On the split tickets the democrats continued to gain. In the Second district there were 290 democratic straights and $49 re- publican straights, but the pasters got in their work and pushed Mr. Lil- librdige to the front. There were 46 republican tickets with the Lillibridge paster alone thereon, Iight hundred and eighty votes were cast here. The Third district changed from the no-license to the license column, al- though about the same no-license vote was cast as last year. There were 52 republican tickets which bore the paster of A. W. Lillibridge. On the straights Lillibridge had & lead of 126 ere. In the Fourth district the straight vote’ was 188 democratic and 147 re- publican for selectman, while in the Fifth there were 174 straigiit republi- can and 162 straight democratic, there being 67 split republican and 13 split democrhtic. The entire vote had been completed and_was announced in the town hall by Moderator Burke at 6.45 o'clock. There were 13 blank license envelopes found in the box in the First district.

Much was missed by those who fail- ed to attend the pri ation of The Rejuvenation of Aunt Mary at the Broadway theater on Monday evening with May Robson in the title role. It was one of the best comedies seen here in a long time, being one continuous laugh of straight, wholesome comedy. Although the audience was small they were by no means cold and gave the ompany evidence of their appreci tion by generous applause and sever. curtan calls. The Rejuvenation of Aunt Mary tells the story of a rich old maiden lady who once had a love story of her own. but whose heart is bound up in a nephew in college, who is a little wild, but not more so than the average voung man.
