The terms of the sale are not stated, but the Biks will not take possession until spring and mean- while committees will be appointed to consider alterations in the bullding to adapt it for their uses. The question of the decision on this matter coming up at this meeting brought out a large majority of the 300 members, among whom a very en- thusiastic spirit for acquiring the property was shown, and it was felt that this opportunity for securing such a fine building and location for the lodge home could mot be allowed to pass, so that when they were ready for a vote, after the matter had been presented, there were only a few bal- Almost Unanimous Decision of Norwich Lodge—Will Take It Over in the Spring—Judge Ayling Reports ‘On National Convention. - ‘ CEg lots in the negative. ~Exalted Ruler ‘William R, Stevens presided. . Another interesting feature of the meeting was Judge Ayling’s report of the grand lodge session at Los Angeles, to which he was the lodge's delegate. This was given with great detail, in- forming the members quite fully of the doings of the grand lodge. He was given a vote of thanks. The-meeting concluded with a boun- tiful_roast pig supper served by the Del-Hoff. The Osgood property, which the Elks wiil buy, consists of a lot which is on the corner of Main and Park streets, 90 feet on Main, 200 feet on Park street. making it 200 fdet deep. The hiandsome brick residence is about 48 feet square, with Ionic columns on the front, and has about 14 rooms on four floors, in- cluding the basement. Its location and the size and character of the residence adapt it admirably for the uses of & clubbouse such as the Elks want, X REV. W. T. THAYER ELECTED PRESIDENT At Annual Busi Mesting of Bap- it Brotherhood at State Conven- n. At 1.30 p. m, Wednesday, the state Baptist Brotherhood met for their an- nual business meeting at Mystic. A permanent _constitution was adopted and officers for the ensuing . year elected. The following were chosen: President, Rev. W. T. Thayer, Nor- wich; vice president, Rev. G. B, Mars- ton, Stonington; secretary, E. D. Do- ton, New London; treasurer, §. K. Ryan, Middletown. An’ executive committee was ap- pointed, consisting of the officers and Rev. W. J. Neily of Danielsén and W. J. Tullar of Hartford. Baptist leaders will remember that Dr. George F. Whittemore, late of Middletown, was president of the board at his death. The report of the enrollment com- mittee of the convention, which was submitted by Rev. Mr. Marston, showed that the attendance at this year's convention was the largest in the history of the jnstitution. He re- ported that at the afternoon session on Tuesday there was an attendance of over 1,000 people. Ashford union was represented by 12 pastors and 47 laymen, Fairfield by 12 ‘pastors and 31 laymen, Hartford by 14 pastors and 28 laymen, New Haven by 11 pastors and 51 laymen, New London by 12 pasto.s and 36 I men and Stonington union by 11 pas- tors and 41 laymen. Too much cannot be said in praise of these who worked and contributed in providing the meals and Jodgings for delegates and other visitors to the convention and all the credit for it is due to the members of the church, no one outside the church having been asked to help the Baptists. In the matter of meals delegates and visitors declared that they had never been better served. A total of over 1,100 meals were served during the conven- tion and accommodations for lodgings were provided for over 400 visitors, the Baptists of Stonington and Noank as- sisting in this matter Tuesday night. Probably the oldest person attend- ing the convention was Mrs. Ellison Lewey of Noank, who is 89 years old. She is just a month older than Rev. J. P. Brown of New London, who is also 80. His record as regards con- veutions is something interesting. He has attended every convention for the last 60 years. He was an officer in the convention for over 30 years and has been on all the committees and held every office in the convention but that of secretary.

Mrs. Swasie wanted her to take the blame off of Tomlinson. The girl declared that she had always felt that Tomlinson should suffed for the déed. and still feels so.

"Christy and McMahon in thefr acrobatic stunts and hand stands brought forth rounds of applause, their number being one of the hits of the_evening.

Jeremiah Kirby sang Under the Irish Moon, in which he was obliged to re- peat, 'and Katherine O'Neil made an instant hit in Pony Boy, the chorus assisting in both numbers.

Thirty participated in this, each carrying a lantern, - Horace Corning sang T Want Some One to Play With Me, in fine voice, and was assisted by a chorus of chil- dren who in the next number formed the waves at the base of the Statue of Liberty, which was finely assumed by Miss Kingsley. It was the cause of a curtain call. Between the first and second acts Miss Sadle Sullivan de- lighted the audience with her fine ren- dition of The Garden of Roses, her sweet soprane voice being at its best Scénes from -Dixie was the title of the second act and this was cleverly done, a cotton field being shown, with Dayid Campion assuming the role of Qld Uncle Joe and Joseph O'Neill as Aunt Liza. They had characteris- tic makeups and they caught the crowd. In their buck dancing Thresh- er and Connell haye many clever steps which made good with the audience and they had to repeat. In their duet, My Kentucky Home, Misses Heffernan and O'Neil sang in fine voice and the dancing by Miss Nellie Brady was well done.

There followed in succes- sion the Minuet, Swedish Folk dance and Sailors Hornpipe, all of which were executed in fine style and showed the result of good training. Miss Rose Leopold in the. Spanish Castinette dance was capital and won instant recognition for her fine work. The Japanese Butterfly and _Scarf dance was a pretty numbef, and Miss Gladys Reeves in the solo part of the number was _particularly good. The | International Drill was the interesting | number which closed the performance amidst auch applause. The Carnival will be repeated this evening, In charge of the successful affair are John Crawford, Jobn W. Shea, John Fitzgerald, Henry Rawley, hn Smith, Patrick . Donohue, John Donohue, Daniel Foley, James Smith and Walter Casey. Maher and Kennedy had-charge of the drilling and the work reflected to their credit throughout.
