- GIRCUS DAY Crowd Turns Out to Witness Street Parade and Attend Performances—Captain Edmond P Sisson to En- gage in Business—Claims of Heirs in Jones Estate Considered—New Railroad Station to be Concrete— James Mathewson Kicked l’ay Horse. ; It ddbs not take a Buffalo Bill or a 101 Ranch Wild West show, or even a Ringling Brothers' circus, to draw out a big crowd to see the parade i1, West- erly, for one of the magnitude of Sig Sautelle was a magnet sufficient, as demonstratad, Thursday. The circus travels -overland, just as in primitive times, with the result that the horses are always jaded and the men tired and sleepy. Sautelle played Wednes day in Wakefield, miles away, and the last of the show wagons did not arrive at the circus grounds in Paw- until 10 o'clock. The result that the noon hour came before the procession started. But the crowd that commenced to assemble at 10 o'clock wadited long and patiently and werg satisfied that the procession in- dicsted that the Sautelle aggregation was a big small show, larger in pro- portion to advance announcement than some which are more pretentious and claim to be thg greatest on earth. Fair sized uu"ences attended the af- ternoon and évening performances and, as it is a one-ring show, the audience saw all that was to be seen, and seem- ed satisfied. ©f course, there was the side show of the ordinary character, with another of a bright red shade in a cosy corner that attracted a certain grade of pa- trons, and they were evidently finan- cial suecesses. Then, too, there were the gamblers with the one-sided games that relieved some of the sports of Westerly and elsewhere of their sur- plus cash. These gambling ichemes are not carried on with the approval of the circus management, but - they are as regular as the circus, and are evidently looked for every time a cir- cus comes to town by Mr. E. Z. Guy and his whole blamed family. The cig- eus will rest and play in Mystic today and the next day will do stunts in New London town. Capt. Edward P. Sisson, for 14 years in the government life and in charge f the Fisher's island station, has resigned, to engage in bus- iness in Westerly. His resignation took effect Wednesday. He will be succeeded by Arthur L. Lanphere, No. 1 man at the Point Judith station. Captain Sisson has been keeper at Watch Hill for seven years and ha given relief in 25 disasters in which 163 lives were imperillad and half a illion dollars in property involved. No lives were lost. Mr. Sisson entered the service as a-surfman Aug. 1, 18 Brenton Point station. He was promoted to be keeper of Sandy Point station Dec. 2, 1898, in recognition of efficiency and merit. and upon his own request was transferred Oct. 2, 1901, as_keeper at Fisher's Island. His successor, Mr. Lanphere, h been No. 1 man at Point Judith st tion since April 1, 1908, and for t four vears preceding was No..1 man at Fisher's Tsland. His work in rescu- ing the survivors eof barges Helen and Julia three#ears ago. and his thorough knowledge of the tides and conditions at Fishor's Island, won for him the promotion. The oft-continued hearing on the re- port -¢ lIsaac Jones as administrator of ¢ estate of his widow, Annie S. Jones, came up again at a spe sion of the probate court Thursd morning. Counsel for certain w be hefrs claimed that there were items in the account of the administra that should not be allowed, as they were not clearly accounts against the estate and™should be borne by the ad- ersonally. aring, Judge Edward M. opinion that inasmuch as had ziven bond to for the payment of legacies ‘and debts, and had performed that duty, any extraneous matter was not within the province of the court. After a Burka ga the administrator the probate court To this opinion Attorneyv John J. Dunn took excoption, and Judge Burke held the matter in abeyance, that the attorney might have opportunity to file authorities that the, opinion of the court was not in compliance with the law. ‘Attorney Walter P. Dixon 1s counse] for administrator. The new passenger station at West- erly will be constructed of concrete, with trimmings of the same artificial stone, the sill course being of Westerly granite.
