YGREENEVILLE Holy Name Scciety Observes Lincoln's Day—Funerals of H. A. Pitcher and G. H. Benjamin—Other Items. The Lincoln day service held by the Holy Name society of St. Mary's parish_was opened at 4 o'clock Sun- day ‘afternoon with the president, Jo- s6ph Donnelly, in the chair. There { members, their friends and members of the G. A. R. were present. Mr. Donnelly in- troduced the speaker of the day, James Haggerty of Willimantic, in a few well chosen words. Mr. Haggerty is a vet- eran of the civil war, having enlisted at the age of fourteen. His address was full of interest and held the at- tention of his’ hearers to the end. He first told of his early experiences in the war, He fought for about one year and was taken prisorier by the confederates, being comfined at An- dersonville for some time. The suf- fering and hardships of the soldiers in the prison were horrible, and the place Was kept crowded with men. Most of the time there were 35,000 persons confined on an area of 21 acres. Mr. Haggerty dwelt to some length on the attitude of Lincoln throughout the war and the manner in which he brought the natfon through the con- flict. Mr. Haggerty e ded his dis- course with remarks on the excellent work which is being accomplished by the Holy Name soclety and highly commended .its_principles. Two solos were rendered by Miss Bruso of Taft- Tllein s bleasing manner. She sang e Star Spangled Banner and The Yankee Bays in Blue.

Keppler followed, and was delivered in an excellent manner. A pleasing solo, The Deathless Army,was given by Archibald P. MacDougall. ‘The speaker of the day, Hon. Ernest B, Hobson, 6f Palmer, Mass., was then introducad and delivered a remarkably fine address on Lincoln. - He first men- tioned 2 few events in the life of Lin- coln and of his trials during the war. The speaker went on to eay that the 1ifé of no other man has ever been 50 great an inspiration to those that came after him as that of Lincoln. He was born in the lowest social strata and lived to hold the highest position of honor and trust of the nation. Thou- sands of young men, though born with- out social advantages, have by his ex- ample raiged themselves to the highest standards. One of Lincoin's noted characteristics was his love of true womanhood. He always held that his great achievements in life were due to his early training and care. He once said as he stood by the grave of his mother: “All that I am or ever hope to be I owe to my angel mother.” Lincoln has contributed greatly to the world’s literature, both . by his writings and his speeches. His Gettys- burg address will always stand as a masterpiecs of composition. - Mr. Lin- coln was on his way to sttend the dedication of the Gettysburg monument when one ot his friends advised him that he would probably be called upon for a speech. - Mr. Lincoln went to a separate apartment and with a pencil hastily scribbled his famous address. Bdwin Everett of Massachusetts, the epeaker of the occasion, delivered an extended and able discourse, but the speech that has made the occasion no- table is the one that Abraham Lincoln composed on his way to the ceremony. Mr. Hobson mentlon the subject of Abraham Lincoln's religion. Many peo- ple_claimed Lincoln was perhaps re- ligfous, but that he was not a Chris- tion. The speaker said that although Lincoln was not subject to every creed and custom, he Was a firm believer in the true principles of Christianity and his administration in every way ex- DPressed his true Christian nature. On the conclusion of Mr. Hobson's address = solo, The Star Spansled Banner. was rendered by Mr. MacDou- gall. Columbia the Gem of the Ocean was sung by the choir, and Rev. Mr. Ricketts gave the benediction. ‘GOD'S, MAN FOR 4 § A GREAT CRISIS.|! Abraham Lincoln, the Subject of Sun- day Morning’s Sermon by Rev. Dr, ‘Kaufman. ; : ‘Sunday morning at Trinity Methodist Episcopal church Rev. Dr. M. S. Kauf- man spoke to a very appreciative con- gregation upon Abraham Lincoln: God’s Man for & Great Crisis. He said in_part - Like leaves of the forest, generations of men have come and gone. The vast majority of them slumber in nameless graves. Sceptered monarch and fet- terad serf share the same fate. Today they are only idust. Their names are forgotten; thelr memory has perished. From the deluge of oblivion which overspreads every land and rushes on through the ages only a few favored souls- find Tefuge in the ark of earthly immortality. Among these few towers the commanding form of Abraham Lin- coln. No other is more lofty than h not one more radiant with the bril liancy and beauty of symmetrical char- acter, If any son of A ever at- tained unto full orbed m surely Lincoln did. It was the completenesa of his physical, intellectual, moral and spiritual equipment that qualified him for every exigency of his _eventful career, however gigantic in its propor- tions or_intricate in its -perplexities. How. delighted must have been .the Creator, our Heavenly Father, when one such actual man stood among his fellows, 8o closely approximating God' own ideal of genuine manliness. Let it be clearly understood that Abraham Lincoln was not the product of heredity—neither of environment. We may rest assured that God does not ask all the credit of this man's peer- less life. But this man, wisely utilizing heredity, herolcally mastering environ- ment, and most faithfully co-operating with God, achieved his own illustrious, luminous, imperishable character: Royal manhood is never a product of outside forces. It is always a personal achievement. This fact is the ethical ground of merit and demerit. Lincoln ‘was always ready to give honor to God and take little credit to himself. But at last after winning the unsullied glory legitimately belonging to his own splendid achievements, he was in addi- tion providentially permitted to wear. the martyr's crown. Evidently he was God's man for a great crisis—one of the greatest in the annals of earth. Still_he is marching in the van of humén progress. Tolflers and fighters for truth and right should ever, be herolc and optimistic when they adopt his,_ principles and remember his tri- umphs. While few can win such fame as his, all of us may be as loyal to country and to God. GEORGE E. CHURCH MADE FIRST LIEUTENANT Commission Dates Back to February 26,1910—Fifth Company Gets Shield.

Struck a Bonding Machine at Round Hill—Block Traine for 100 Minutes. Saturday afternoon an extra car, No, 156, on the Central Village line, went off the track at Round Hill. No ma- terial damage was’ done and mo one was hurt. Motorman Conrad was on the front end, with Conductor Tourtel- lotte at the bellcord. The cause of the accident was due to the fact that a bonding machine was on ‘the -trac which sent the first truck off, othe wise doing no harm. The traffic on the Central Village line was held up one hour and forty minutes, delaying the 210 train out of Norwich at Taftville for some time. The wrecker was sent here from Midway to clear the line, but a light engine from Jewett City had gotten there and assisted in get- ting the car back onto the rails, So that the wrecker did not have to go beyond here. The bonding machine was being used by workmen repairing the bonds on the rafls. The operator had time to get out of the way, but not to remove his machina. MISS PERRY LEAVES.

Colonel was born at Norwich, Conn., December 31, 1837. After passing through the public and normal schools at Norwich he_studied architecture and engineering. In those days there was little specialization, and Colonel Fanning fitted himself for practice in what are now several al- most distinct professions; and through his long professional life proved him- Self a man of remarkably diversified talents. His was one of the fow en- gineering offices of the-present time where strictly architectural work was planned when it came up in connec- tlon. with fnfely engineering practice. Colonel Fanning’s entrance into ac- tive work was interrupted by the civil war. He enlisted in the Third Con- necticut volunteer Infantry and served throughout the war. Returning to Norwich, he opened an office and for about twenty years practiced his pro- fession. In Demand as Expert. ‘With the progress of the years Col- onel Fanning came more and more to devote himself to hydraulic engineer- ing and was called upon as an expert to report on the water supply for New York city, Brooklyn, and other eastern cities. He was also frequently in di mand as an expert witness in wa and drainage cases and was calle: consultation to distant points in in the country. One of these calls brought him to Minneapolis in 1885. He had @a commission to report on the power and improvements of St. Anthony falls and his impressions of the western cbuntry and its opportunities, and other considerations, led him the next year to move to Minneapolis. Since coming hers, Colonel Fanning had devoted himself largely to hy- drulic _engineering, supervising, plan- ning or acting as consulting engineer in many of the larger engineering op- erations in the west. He had charge of the development of the water pow- er on the Big Hole river in Montana, at Great Falls and Helena, Mont., and at Spokane, and has been consulting engineer for the Great Northern and Minneapolis Union railways for years, as well as being called in consulta- tion by many other railroads through- out the country. Work in Minneapolis. In Minneapolls, the present city water pumping plant, the Northeast station, was designed by him and stands as a model. His most recent work has been the design and super- vision of the construction of the water power plant of the Great Northern road near its Cascade tunnel, a plant which furnished electrical energy for the’ operation of all Great Northern trains through the tunnel. The difi- culties in connection with this plant at first seemed unsurmountable, but were overcome by the highest grade of engineering talent. The plant cost over $1,000,000. Colonel Fanning’s powers of inven- tion werp remarkable. In addition to constantly introducing original meth- ods in carrying out engineering pro- jects, often amounting to important inventions in themselves, he patented a_slow-burning building construction system, & steam pumping ensine, steam ‘boilers, turbines, and water valves, and invented and constructed the first wood-stave pipes, now so generally used as conduits in water supply, irrigation and power projects. In later years he has been called in consultation in_the construction of a large number of, water supply and pu- rification systems, including Des Moines, Omaha, Birmingham, Ala., and other places. He was consulted from time, to time, officially and unofficially, regarding the Minneapolis water sup- ply and pointed out, in the elghties, the logical sites for power [houses and reservoir which were subsequently adopted in the main. In 1900 the eity council employed Colonel Fanning and William de la Barre to outline the best method for the further development of the Minne- apolis water supply system, and they reported favoring the use of the Mis- sissippi river water and a purification plan on the general lines since adopt- ed. Author of Note. Colonel Fanning found time In the midst of an exceptionally busy life to write many papers on professional subjects and deliver lectures from time to time. Fis book, A Treatise on Hydraulic and Water Supply En- gineering, written years ago, became the standard authority on the subject and ran through many editions, At the time of his death he was first vice president of the American Society of Civil Engineers and former president of the American Waterworks associa- tion, a fellow of the American Asso- clation for the Advancement of Scl- ence, honorary member of the New England Waterworks association, a member of the Franidin institute and other sclentific and technical organ- izations. Many years ago he joined the Somerset Masenic lodge at Nor- wich, Conn., a lodge established in 1795. Colonel Fanning was a man of ex- treme modesty. Although a high au- thority on matters of much pubiie in- terest his views were never put for- ward except when asked for, and it is probable that many persors serving the public in various capacities an who might have profited by his ac- quaintance, did not know him at all. In 1865 Colonel Fanning married at (Continued on Fage Three.) dates was initiated into the mysteries of Odd Fellowship. The work of the degree team was of the highest order and drew forth comments from the brethren present. = Considerable inter- est is shown in the order and. the members are looking forward to a very successful year under their present of- ficers. Masquerade Ball. The annual masquerade ball held by the Schuetzen Verein on Saturday evening was well attended and the af- fair proved to be a most enjoyable one. The grand mareh, in which about 75 couples folned, began at 8.20 o'clock. Music was furnished by Kraus’ orches- tra. The prizes for the finest masques were awarded to A. Fromander and Mrs. Meyers. Refreshments were served and everyone had the finest kind of a time. Personals. ' Richard Kyle has returned from a visit with friends in Boston.
