TURKEY DINNER Given Boys and Girls of Sterling at Sterling Center Schoolhouse. On Thursday afternoon the boys and girls of Sterling were given a turkey dinner in the old schoolhouse at Ster- ling Center. They were seated at three long tables which were covered with Japanese crepe paper and decorated with minjature Christmas trees. The trees were set in flower pots and were prettily trimmed with tinsel and col- ored balls and candles. They stood about thirty inches high and ' wers placed at intervals on each table and made a very artistic decoration. The dinner consisted of turkey with cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes and turnips and pumpkin pie. A box of candy and an orange were given to each one. The dimner was by subscription by the Sterling people—some giving pie, bread and vegetables and others giving money. All joined in to make the event a happy ene for the children, who showed their appreciation by their good appetites. This is the first time anything of this kind has been done in Sterling and much credit is due to M Harold B. Mowry, who personally had charge of all the arrangements and who carried it through verv successfully. HELPING HANDS WHIST Held at Home of Rev. and Mrs. A. P. Blinn—Those Who Took Prizes.

The home of Willlam Ince on the Prentice place in Lisbon, about half a mile from the Taftville bridg ‘burned to_the ground Thursday eve- ning and Mr, and Mrs. Ince, who es- caped from the building in their night clothes, were badly chilled, cular- ly the latter, by their forc posure to the zero weather. The fire was first seen at 9.30 o'clock by Gilbert E. Talbot, one of the neighbors, who reached the Ince home three-quarters of an hour before any other of the neighbors got there. Mr. and Mrs. Ince were in bed when they became aware of the blaze and they had just time to get out in their night clothes. After giving them some of his clothing Mr. Talbot gave his attention to the burning building, but it was soon a mass of flames, and only a bureau and a few other arti- cles of furniture were saved, With the assistance of a dozen or fifteen of the neighboring residents who gath- ered, he was able to save the shed, about twenty feet from the house, “and the barn, which was farther away. The shed took fire but they were able to put out the flames there, DEAD MAN MAY BELONG IN TAFTVILLE Parts of Desc ion Correspond—Body Found .Beside Central Vermont Track Above Yantic. About seven o'clock Thursday morn- ing it was reported to the authorities of the Central Vermont Rallway com- pany that a man had been killed a mile and a half above Yantic. Sta- tion Agent H. J. Gibbs at Yantic was also notified and at 8.30 notified Med- ical Examiner Dr, H. H. Howe of Yan- tic, who acts for the town of Frank- lin. The body was found by the crew of freight train No. 91 near the Ben- jamin Huntington place in Franklin. Engineer J. J. Carrigan saw the ob- ject beside the track and stopped his train and’ made an investigation. He found it to be the body of a man and reported it to the authoritie: D Howe went to the spot about 11 o'clock and found that one leg had n cut off below the knee and that there were also injuries about the head. The man was 60 to 65, with gray hair and possibly older. He wore a biue overcoat and black cap and had a child’s mitten in his pocket. It was stated that such a man had been seen about the Yantic station Wednesday night, asking about getting to Willi- mantic. The medical examiner did not make a thorough investigation then, but started out to notify the se- lectmen of ' the town. He found Se- lectman Davis and thex went to the scene, but found that the body had disappeared. This caused the medical examiner to notify the coroner and an investigation was at once started. It seems that another train, south- bound, reported the body I¥ing beside the track, and Superintendent Costello, hearing this, thought someone ought to look after the body and sent a switcher and a caboose from here to the spot and the crew placed the body aboard the caboose and took it to Lebanon, where it remained all night. Medical Examiner Howe will go up there this morning to complete his examination. Tt is thought by Coroner Brown that the man was walking the track and was hit by a train, It is thought that it was the early boat train in the morning which hit him on its way north, although it may have been a freight during the night. Relatives of Martin Tetrault, aged 87, of Taftville, who disappeared on Wednesday, and has not been heard from since, are of the opinion that it may be he and they will make sure of this today. When informed by The Bulletin of the man’s description, Ado- sias Morin, who married "a grand- daughter of the missing man, said there were some parts of the descrip- tion which corresponded, but he felt less sure when the age was mentioned and later tried to get into communi- cation with Lebanon, but could get no information, Mr. Tetrault has been in Taftville but a few weeks, and came from St. Pie, Canada. He is about five feet high, with smooth face and weighs from 115 to 120 pounds. A man an- swering that description was seen in the vicinity of Poqutanuck on Thurs- day. Mr. Morin was there looking for him, but found no trace of his missing relative. CHRISTMAS ENTERTAINMENT OF UNIVERSALIST SUNDAY SCHOOL. Fine Programme Carried Out Gifts Distributed. and In the banquet hall at the Bucking- ham Memorial on Thursday evening the Sunday school of the Universalist church had its Christmas entertain- ment with a very large attendance. At the front of the room an electrically lighted tree sparkled invitingly, with a load of gifts, which were distributed after the programme. The entertainment this year was a departure from the usual custom of a supper which has been carried out for a number of years past. Assistant Su- perintendent “Frederic S. Young, who with Mrs. Joseph F. Cobb and Miss Hattie Jewett made up the committee in charge, presided. McCord’s orches- tra gave fine music during the even- ing. The following was the well rendered programme: Orchestra; song, Away in a Manger, Villa Bussey; recitation, The Christmas Guests, by four girls, representing Love, Joy, Goodwill and Peace, Nellie Lamb, Pauline Culver, Florence Smith, Marian Fowler; song, Christmas Lullaby, Elizabeth Fillmore; recitation, A Bit of Holly, Nellie Lamb; recitation, A Legend of Santa Claus, Leotta Oat; recitation, Our Christmas Eve Scare, Harold Cobb and Lyle Fill- more; reading, The Longest Night in All the Year, Mrs. Young; song, Ruth Rush. After cake and ice cresm had been served, the presents were distributed from the tree by a member - of the school who was dressed to represent Gretchen von Santa Claus, the good old man’s wife. She presented a greet- ing in rhyme before taking up her task. . There were a gerat number of presents, among which was one espe- cially for Madeline Kelley, who has been perfect in attendance for two years. Boxes of candy were given to all the school, and many of the teach- ers and classes exchanged gifts. Escaped Without Injury. About 11 o'clock Thursday Dr. Tow- er's sleigh was overturned in Union street and the doctor ‘d@ d for a sonciderable distance before letting go. The horse ran down the sldewalk in Broadway, several getting out of the way, and going down Shetucket street took to the ruilroad track and contin- ued around to the Lridge over the Yan. tie, where it fell. After much difficulty the horse was gotten up uninjured. The horse got all four legs through the bridge over the Ytnilc above the Chelsea boat club house. He was Mft— ed out of his dangerous situation with a block and tackle and walked off with only a slight limp. Somers.—The severs snow storm of Sunday prevented the Avery & Daniely Mill company from beginning to cut ice Monday, as was -intended. The cut! Tho fire started In the -msu room and it is believed was caused by a de- fective chimney. The fire had evident- 1y been burning some time before the’ blaze made its way through to the outside, whm it was first noticed by Mr. Talbot at The burning house lighted up the surrounding country brilliantly for more than an hour and could be plainly seen from Taftville, where it attracted much attention. Mr. and Mrs. Ince were taken, thor- oughly chilled, to the home of Mr. and Mrs, John Spencer, neighbors aud rel- atives of Mrs. Ince, with whom they will remain temporarily. They were suffering from the cold, but did not have medical attendance! Mr. Ince’s house was a large-sized two-story building and his lon with his furniture and household effects, will probably be $2,500 or $3.000. He carried an insurance of $1,500, but whether this was all on the house was uncertain. Mr. Ince is a well-known wood- dealer in Norwich and his friends sympathize with him in the loss of his home and belongings. BONDHOLDERS' COMMITTEE MEETING. Action to Be Taken on Disposition of the Property Held by Mortgagee. Last fall, when the W. H. Davenport Fire Arms company got into financial difficulties, the bondholders of the com- pany met and appointed a committee consisting of Amos A. Browning, Frank H. Allen and Henry.W. Tibbits to look after the interest of the mortgage ‘holders. That committee has issued a call for a meeting of the bondholders of the company to be held at the Board of Trade rooms in this city next week Monday, when no doubt some decisive action will be taken regarding the d position of the property covered by a mortgage to the bondholders. OBITUARY. Frederick F. Hopkins. Frederick Ferdinand Hopkins, gen- eral agent for the State Mutual Life Insurance company, died after a ling- ering illness Wednesday morning at 2 o'clock at his home in Worcester. Mr. Hopkins, who was 73 years and 10 months old, had been in ill health since early last summer, when he was obliged to give up his active business, Six weeks ago a change for the worse was noted, and he sank steadily until the end came this morning. Mr. Hopkins was -born In Norwich February 17, 1836. He was a direct descendant of Stephen Hopkins, the first governor of Rhode Island and a sigrer of the Declaration of Independ- ence. His father was George S nus Hopkins, and his mother was Es- ther (Cooley) Hopkins. The publi¢ schools of Norwich offer- ed him his only education, and in 1854 he came to Worcester and secured work with the Allen & Thurber Co., manufacturers of firearms, with which firm he remained for three years, says the Worcester Gazette. Then he went to Newark, where he worked for a short time in a similar work. From 1858 to 1869 he did the contract work for Frank Wesson, brother of Daniel B, Wesson, of the firm of Smith & Wesson of Springfield. He continued to make his home in Worcester, and it was while he was in that city in the employ of the Wesson Bros. that he became solicitor’ for the State Mu- tual Life Insurance company. He re- mained in Worcester since that time, having been promoted from solicitor to general agent, /Mr. Hopkins at one time attended the old Salem Street Congregational chureh, but since the organization of Piedmont ‘church he was a member there, and for 16 years acted as the treasurer of the church. 2 He was a member of the Worcester Congregational club, = an honorary member of the Worcester Continent- als,, of which he used to bahan active member, and an_associate member of the George H. Ward post of the G. A, R. He married Sarah Maria Lewis of Norwich, daughter of Joseph B. and Deborah (Rathburn)” Lewis, én Jan- uary 1, 1857. There are two sons liv- ing, Dr. Edward Barle Hopkins and Dr. Frederick Silvanus Hopkins, both of Boston. The third son, who was Herbert P, Hopkins, and who was closely associated with his father in the insurance business, dled five years ago Tuesday. One sister survives, Mary E., and a half-brother, George ‘Warren Hopkins of Bryan, Ohio. Mrs. Alien Fuller. The death of Mary M. Fuller of Scotland occurred about 1 o'clock on Thursday afternoon at the State hos- pital. She was the wife of the late Allen Fuller and was in her 79th year, She leaves a son living in Scotland. SOCIALISTS MEET. Consider Chance of Union With Labor Party Quite Remote. The regular weekly meeting of the Norwich branch of the socialist party was held Thursday evening in their rooms in the Stead block. As there is to be a vote by Jan. 25th on the choice of the seven members of the national executive board, one of the points brought up for discussion was whether the socialists should join a labor party if such a party should be formed. this before the socialists at the present time, but it is understood that some of the men whose names are offered ‘would advocate such a move. The history of socialism and the la- hor movement in Europe and the fact that they have practically amalgamat- ed was brought up to show how the two parties might come together, but the conclusion was reached that it would yet be a long tibe before there would be a labor party that the social- ists could unite with. Another point to be voted upon in January is a constitutional amendment doing away with the national executive board and devoting more energy to the development of socialism along state Some of the instead of national lines. Norwich members expressed their con- viction that this was an advisable change to be put into effec Cancelling Machine. A new, machine for cancelling letters bas arrived at the postoffice and will take the place of the machine which has been in use for a number of years.
