It has never been men who walked in the crowd, that have moved this World, he said; get away from the crowd and alone with God for true life, ahd watch and pray always that you may be worthy to stand before the Son of God.

On Friday, Bennett, on returning from .work, brought home with him a large bunch of flowers, and in hand- ing them to his wife, remarked: “You will know what to do with them be- tween now and Monday. Soon after giving the flowers to his wife he demanded that she give him money, and on her refusal to comply with his request drew.a 22-calibre re- volver and fired one shot at her. The bullet struck a corset steel and glanced off. For this shooting he was arrested and arraigned in court Saturday morn-~ ing, where he was held under $1,000 6n trial before the criminal superior court. ~Bonds were furnished by his father and Bennett returned to his home. On his return from court, he acted queerly, and was closely gquestioned by his father, with whom he and. his wife lived. Late today he went to the barn and there supposedly secured the three sticks of dynamite with which he killed himself later. On re- turning to the house he kissed his fa- ther and mother. a thing which he was not in the habit of doing, and then went up to the second floor into his wife’s room, where she was in bed, #l from the effects of Sunday’s shooting. On entering the room, he said: “Don’t you want to dle with me?” and his wife replied: “Not until it is time.” From his wife's room he went across a hall into_a second bedchamber and there placed the dynamite in the front of his shirt #nd lighted the fuse. The force of the explosion blew out the windows of the room in which it oc- curred and tore large holes in his chest and abdomen. His wife ran in- to the room on hearing the explosion and found him still alive, calling her name, but before the members of the family could reach him. death came. In the opinion of the medical exam- iner, Bennett was insane, and had not been in his right mind for several years. Ten years ago, while m‘rbyed by his father, who is a well driller, he was struck in the head, and for some time was confined in a sanitarium, the of confinement being in Other than blowing out the win- dows of the room where the explos- ifon occurred, no other damage was done. to the house,: thougn the force the explosion stunned his father and mother, who are ill from the ef- fects of tho shock and ghelr eons eat B:h;lds his wife, Bennett. who was years old, leayes his father and mother, Mr. and Mrs, James F.

Mrs. Bennett has some money longing to her husband, which she was made the custodian of, and when he came home ‘he wanted. He had been drinking liguor and the woman declined to give him the cash, fearing that it Would be spent. Bennett insisted and drew a revolver. His wife became alarmed and fled from the house. Ben- nett pursued and fire two shots at her. The first one was fired when she was about thirty feet away, but it did not hit her, The second one followed and struck her corset. It went through her skirt and apron, but she said it did not hurt her, as it struck the steel and glanced off. She went back to the hoéuse, where, she said, she quiet- ed her husband, and he lay down on the lounge, The revolver was found in hiz hip pocket.

A public installation of the officers of Lafayette council, No. 207, I'Union St, Jean Baptiste d'Amerique, was held Sunday evening in Foresters’ hall. It was a special meeting for this pur- pose and was attended by about 150 of the members and their friends, who enjoyed the interesting programme carried out. Members of the order from Jewett City and Baltic made up the installing team and G. A. Foisy of Woonsocket, R, I, was present, rep- Tesenting the supreme council.

Fitz- Patrick Preaches Against lts Irrev- erent, Indifferent Use. ¢ The ingratitude, as well as the sin of profanity and. irreverent use of the name of the Saviour was convincingly set forth on Sunday, the feast of the holy name of Jesus, when at the high mass in St. Patrick’s church Rev. F. L. FitzPatrick preached from thes epistle for the day,Acts iv.8-12,basing his ser- mon on the concluding text: For there is no_other name under heaven given to men, whereby we must be saved. The preacher considered the name of Jesus as most holy and most powerful, Qirecting attention to its origin, its significance, and Christ’s own promises as to its efficacy with His Father. The name first spoken to Mary in the salutation of the Angel Gabriel, “and thou shalt cal His name Jesus,” the name which was the sole means by which the apostles conquered the known world for Christ, has ever been the strength of the weak and the tempted, the solace of the sorrowing, epitomizes the gospel of Christ's sacri- fice for us, is the final message of hope and cheer for the dying Christian. Realizing its meaning then, the speak- er urged his listeners to improve the opportunity on the recurrence of the feast to pledge themselves against its irreverent and indwferent use. The high mass was celebrated by the Rev. Joseph E. McCarthy. The offer- tory was sung by Roderick F. Sullivan, accompanied with customary sympethy. and effective registration by the organ- ist, Mr. Farrell. Carrol Got Ten Days. In the New London city court Satur- duy John Carroll, who came from Nor- wich, said he did not need work while he had money and practically told the court that he did not intend o look for work until his money was gone. He said he had been in town three days, but had made no inguiries about & job. He showed 1o mare concern over ihe penalty meted out to him than he Wwould over any other announcement. arroll was sentenced to ten days in Jait, Additional local on page two and threa.
