E. Wilmot Ayres, aged 16, son of Rev. and Mrs. Edward J. Ayres of North Franklin, was drowned in the Shetucketriver in Sprague on Thurs- day afternoon about four o'clock. He had taken the horse to Baitic in the afternoon to have it shod, which was done, and hnnfln% it back he tied it in the stable and fold the members of the family that he was going to the river to have & Swim. His sisters de- sited that he should not go, fearing that he might gét drowned, but he went. With him went a younger bo: aged about 12, whose name was Tucl er. The younger boy could swim, but the Ayres boy could not and was told not to go far out into the stream, as it was over his head. While the Tuck: er boy Was swimming about, he hap- pened to look around and saw his com- panion go down in deep water. He hurried to him and after he had gone down twice and come up he reached him, and taking hold of him told him that he would help him ashore and to put his arms on his shoulders as he swam in with him, It is supposed that the Ayres boy Wwas so affected by his experience up to that time that he was losing consciousness, for he Sixteen Year Old Son. of Rev. E. J. Ayres of Franklin "Lost Life in Town of Sprague—Could Not Swim and did not maintain his hold, his hands slipping off the Tucker boy’s shoulders and béfore the latter could do mote he had disappeared. The Tucker boy said that he had cautioned his com- panion several times not to get out into_deep water, ‘Where they were in swimming Was in the town of Sprague, above baltic, and the Tucker boy directly after the drowning hurried for help, but it wi not until about eight o'clock that the body was secured. Medical Examiner Dr. George Thompson was calied and learned the facts, deciding it was a case of accidental drowning and Henry Allen & Son Were given charge of the body. A large number gathered about the riverside while the search was in- der way and the affair cast a gloom over town. E. Wiimot Ayres was born in Vir- ginia Wecember 10, 1894, the son of Rev. Edward J. and Ruble Frink Ayres, by Whom he is survived, tosether with three sisters, two of whom live at home and one in Washington. He was an only son. The family lives 6n Pau- tipaug hill in Franklin and came hére from Massachusetts a few years ago. They have the sympathy of the com- munity in their loss.

REV. JOHN J. QUINN'S ESTATE. Priest Considered Legally Dead, Al- though Positive Proof is Lacking. Letters of administration on the es- tate of the Rev. John J. Quinn, who was a Roman Catholic priest, have been granted to James J. Quinn of Hartford by Judge L. P. Waldo Marvin in the probate court. Father Quinn has not been heard of in more than seven vears and is considered legally dead, the last heard of him being in February, 1904, when he left the home of Pather Fallon in Norfolk, Va., to take an Old Dominion line boat for New York. Father Quinn was in charge of the parish at Collinsville for many years, and afterward had charge of the church in Taftville. In the early part of 1904 he was relieved of the Taft- ville charge and came to Hartford and made his Home ®ith his brother, says the Hartford Times. He went on a visit to Father Fallon in Norfolk and on the 24th of February, 1904, he wrote @ postal to his brother James in this city that he was coming home. He bought a steamship ticket and booked passage on the boat. He left Father Fallon's house to take the boat, but no proof of what his movements were af- ter that has ever been found. As told previously. James J. Quinn of this city has brought a friendly suit against the Knights of Columbus to collect the $1,000 insurance that Fa- ther Quinn carried in that order. His dues in Ponemah council of Taftville have been kept pald up and the order wants to be protected by an order of court in paying the insurance. Tnsurance policies payable to the es- tate of Father Quinn weré ditried in the Aetna Life Insurance company of this city, the Metropolitan Life Insur- ance company, the New York Mutual and the Manhattan Lifé, the four poli- cies aggregating $6,000. The premiums on all of the policies have been kept up for the moré than seven vears with the exception of the policy in the Met- ropolitan Life, but the compafy re- fused to accéept payment when the premiums were tendered STATE TEAM SCORES.

Thursday's vaudeville and motion | picture bill at the Auditorium made a record for the season in stirring the nouse to enthusiastic and insistent ap- plause, as every one of the thres acts of the vaudeville attractions was good for curtain calls and the audience showed itself eager to see all they could_of the offerings. 1dgar Berger showed some novel and wonderful feats in hand balancing |and hand walking, interspersed with jumps and slides and head balancing that brought him back for curtain calls, Introducing a musical novelty, the Barefoot Indian Girl scores heavily for her witchery with the violin, which | she handles with rare skill and expres- | siveness that demands an encore. | In a different line but equally pleas- ing with the other strong numbers are Holden and LeClair, shadowgraph- ers and illusionists, who do their work in plain sight of the audience and show how the fingers are used to pro- | duce the amusing shadow effects. The motion pictures are well chosen to bal- {ance up with the rest of the bill. Third Floor Leased.

He was given six months in Jjail and advised to stop drinking. The case against Walter Prairie, which was continued from Wednesday, was recalled and his attorney made another plea for him. Judge Reed talkeq with the accused, who claimed that_he found the door of the cottage at RBast Lyme open and went in to dry his clothes, He ate some food while in_there.

He had been living with a woman in Bradley street, New London, so At- torney Freeman told the court, and they went to the Ecclestone home in 0Old Mystic, where they met Glaze and a_white woman, Gladys Earl, formerly of Norwich. They had whiskey and trouble followed, in which Glaze was stabbed. State Attorney Hull stated that Thompson had threatened Glaze before. Gladys Karl was the chief witness for the state in the case and her con- dition is very serious from consump- tion, She has been in court two days under the care of Dr. Harriman, who said that she could nof stand the strain of testifying in the trial. The state attorney stated that was the reason he aflowed the plea of guilty on this charge. . It was decided to continue the cases against Peter Kelley and Dora Levi until next Tuesday.

Abell, which were held at 2 o'clock Thursday afternoon at his iate home on East Town street. Rev. A. H. Wilcox. pastor of the Bozrah church, conducted the service. Kol lowing the seripture reading was a brief address upon these words: Come unto Me, reaching forth unto those things which are before 1 press tow- ards the mark. I shall be satisfied. Invitation, hope, comfort. ~He had been faithful in bearing his Saviour's yoke. He longed for a deeper and full- er experience of that soul rest that Jesus promised. Then his high, fine qualities shone out. He said to me at one time: “I want more of Christ in my heart and the realizaty of Christ's presence.” I will not let Thee go ex- cept Thou bless me. So e struggled on through the hot summer. He looked for the explanation of the mysteries of this life. The end found him vic- torious in his struggle. The end found him sitisfled.

ED WALSH A CANDIDATE FOR CHALMERS TROPHY. White Sox Pitcher Easily the Most Valuable Man to His Team, Big 1d Walsh of the Chicago White Sox is the latest man to claim the spot light in the discussion among the fans as to who will receive the Chal- mers trophy this year. Last year Mr Chalmers offérad an automobile to the leading batter. KEvery one remembers the close race betweens Ty Cobb and Larfy Lajoie. A This year it has not been confined to but the award is to be given to er in the National and the the pl player in the American league who, in| and instrumental . selections were en- | the opinion of the committee of eleven | newspaper men, has done the best work for his team. The great let down the Boston speed bovs with- out a_single hit .has brought to the attention of the fans and critics every where the wonderful record which th ig feifow has been making for himself with the White Sox. His great strength and wonderful ability to come into a game with prac- tically no warming up, makes him very valuable to the White Sox. Whenever any other pitchers have bezun {o show any weakness, Walsh is the man who is alw called_upon to rescuc the zame Moreover he can take his turn regula ly every other day without apparently losing his strength. Among the other American I plavers who bave been most favorably mentioned for the Chalmers trophy are Ty Cobb of the Tigers, Eddie Collin: Bender and Coombs of the Athletic Speaker of the Boston Red Sox, on and Gregg of Cleveland, and i of New Yorl When Wals record is seriously considered, however, it is apparent that his work has meant almost as much to the White Sox as that of any of the men mentioned above has meant to their respective teams. Were Walsh to be taken out of the White Sox line- up many critics believe that Comis- key's team would be as helpless as the Tigers without Cobb. Waldo M.
