Perkins died at 6.45 o'clock Friday evening at his home on Pine street, East Great Plain, following a serious illness of only a week. He un- derwent a surgical operation Friday morning and failed to rally. He was born in Sterling, Conn., July 1, 1851, and was the son of Newman Perking and Mary Terrington Perkins of Preston City. On September 11, 1878, he was marrieq to Phoebe Es- telle Sweet, in this city, by Rev. Dr. Palmer. For fourteen years he was employed as an engineer on the steam- er City of Lawrence, running from Norwich to New York. He was later employed as a stationary engineer by various parties in this city and in New London, and worked for Thomas Drummond, a boller manufacturer of New London, for soms time. For the past 2§ years Mr. Perkins resided on Pine street, where he was engaged successfully in market gardening for the past fifteen years. Mr. Perkins attended the Congrega- tional church. He was a model ofti- zen and was loveq and respected by his fellow men. His interests centered largely in his home and he was a de- voted and self-sacrificing father and husband. He was a man of quiet and sympathetic disposition, who was ever ready to do his utmost for neighbor or friend. His death is the source of deep regret to all who knew him. He | survived by his wife, one daughter, Mrs, Louis N, Stevens of Westbrook, Conn., and a son, Clarence S, Perkins, who resides at home. FUNERALS. Thomas McGinnis.

To the right of the platform hung the banner of the campaigners, showing on a field of green bordered with purple the slogan | in white letters, Votes For Women. Members of the campaigning party with scarfs over their shoulders bear- ing the same words distributed liter- ature before the meeting opened and passed the slip for signatures and the hat for contributions at the end of the meeting. One of the happenings that called for a burst of enthusiasm was the an- nouncement made through Mrs. Will- iam A. Norton of the local league that a Norwich woman had contributed the sum of $100 towards the expenses of the campaign. After Mrs. William A. Norton, pres- ident of the Norwich league, had open- ed the meeting, three speakers, each with a different message and a per- | sonality appealing in a different way presénted the arguments why wo- men should have the ballot, and each enlisted the close attention of her au- dience. Mrs. John Rogers, Jr., of New York, concise and logical and intense- ly earnest, made the plea upon the side of the reasonableness and > pediency of giving women the ballot. | Bhe was followed by Mrs. Herbert Sumner Owen of Utah, who had eome east she said to head a delegation which was protesting against placing | the face of Brigham Young upon the | silver to be given to the battleship | Utah. It was easy to see that Mrs. Owen would be a success as a pro- testor and she was heartily applaud- ed at different points in her addres: Miss Emily Pierson, state organizer, closed the argument, speaking with the dash and swing and enjoyment of" one perfectly at home upon the plat- form. | In her opening words, Mrs. Norton | thanked the people of Norwich for turning out an audience of such good proportions to encourage the speak- ers and quoted Wendell Phillips in | support of woman's suffrage She in- troduced Mrs. Rogers as one who would speak upon the expediency of granting the ballot to women. Mrs. Rogers remarked in opening | that she was intensely desirous that | Connecticut should be a leader among the Eastern states to win in the fight for votes for women, since it had for- | merly been her home. The American government svas committed to and 31e by | people believed in ‘a government the people, that everybody should have | a say in matters that concern every- | body. It Is only simple justice then | when the women ask for this political | right. Class rule has always bm‘n’ unfair and an unrepresenteqd class is a powerless class politically. Not that women have no power or influence, but they want political power. They want power to help choose the men who govern, who make the laws, rights that men in former times have fought and died for. Women are told that home is their place and to stay there, but it is not the home-keeping women that men have honored most. Women want a chance to share in| the human dutfes that men and wom- en can do together. They want the ballot, and they want it quickly. It isn't going to make the millenium all at once. Women have not been un- womenly in making their demand for the ballot. They have merely knocked | in the head some old conveptional ideas that it was wrong for a woman to pe conspleuous. Never, if she is conspicuous for something good. (Ap- plause.) | BUSINESS MEN WILL GATHER IN LARGE NUMBERS. | Four Cities of Eastern Connecticut to Be Well Represented at Outing at Kitemaug. | The members of the Norwich Busi- | ness ‘Men's association, in company with the business men of Willimantic, | Putnam and New London, are plan- ning to spend an enjoyable day at Klternaug on Tuesday.

Mrs. Norton said that Mrs. Owen *yould tell something of how it worked, and the Utah woman re- sponded by saying that it had not yet brought the milleniuym in Utah, but it had raiged the standard higher in a place where it was hard to raise it. In vigorous language she told of the way both the antis and the pros look- ed with fear and trembling upon Utah and woman suffrage, and she said that it it would work in Utah it would work anywhére. When she carried the banner of he state in the suffrag- ist ‘parade in New York she said she was hissed all down the line, and it filled her soul with—joy. (Laughter and applause.) . \‘onxinua;g, Mrs, Owen said that they had emendous problems to golve in Utah, ‘but the men had got now so that they looked to the women to help solve them. The women were powers when it came to gquestions on moral issues, involving the plague spots of the city and state; and you could count upon 90 per cent. of them being at the polls. The women of Utah need the women of fHe east to back them up to wipe out the plague spot of polygamy, which will make Utah a foreign country as long as this evil exists. And today it is fully as prevaleni, if not more so0, than In Brigham Young'g time. As soon as women have the power they will speak with a voice that has to be listened to. Mrs. Owen as well as the other speak- ers were vigorously applauded as they concluded their addresses. Miss Pierson was the concluding speaker, telling how the people could help ip this movement by recording their names as believers in the votes for women proposition through sign- ing the slips which were passed around. The campaigners were out to have the absurd sex qualification stricken from the state constitution, she said, just as we had once stricken out the word white in defining those who have a right to the suffrage. 'he speakers then invited questions from the audience and a number were sent up, the answere being given by Miss Pearson, Mrs. Owen and Mrs. Rogers, Among the questions were the following: What has woman's suf- frage to do with child labor? Has not woman's suffrage been a failure in Denver and destroyed the credit of western cities? Is man's govern- ment so poor that we need woman suffrage? [ In answer to the question about Denver, M Owen replied that you mustn’t expect to get the truth from western newspapers, and in answer to a question as to why more women do not qualify voters on the school question, Miss Pierson replied that the in Colorado showed that when Colorado women had only a school suffrage only two per cent. voted, but when they had full suffrage about 70 to 80 per cent. voted. Arthur H. Brewer interposed orgu- ment for the women here by stating that he believed only about 1 per cent. of the men voted on school questions in Norwich, There were also questions about the white slave trafiic which Miss Pierson answered with examples of what had been accomplished by the women in Hartford. but hlocked from full resulis by the politicians, whi were men. The meeting adjourned about 9.45. In the New London county campaign there have been 28 meetings held and 2,099 new names have been secured. The campaigners estimate that they have spoken to about 5000 people so far, and they have two more weeks ahead of them yet. NORWICH PEOPLE HURT AT NEW LONDON DEPOT Daniel N. Rogers and Mrs. M. C. Wat- rous Bruised and Cut When Struck by Train. Three Union " persons were injured depot at New London day evening, when train No. the New Haven raoilroad, New York to Boston, struck them. Stephen O'Berne, a New Haven road fireman, 18 in Memorial hospital with four brok- en ribs, and Mrs. M, C. Watrous and Danfel N. Rogers of Norwich were bruised and cut. The two latter, how ever, were later able to take the train home. There was a large crowd at the sta- tion as the train pulled siowly in, and at the early & number, including the three injured attempted to cross the tracks to the Norwich train. The train c¢ame in faster than they had evidently calcu- lated, and the three were knocked in various directions. Mr. Rogers is employed at the Nor- wish state hospital on night duty at the telephone exchange.
