Mr. Vaudrey was try- ing to enter the mill yard at the time and instead of going down to the foot of the hill on Yantic street and en- tering there by the gate, was making a short cut by walking across the ice breaker at the heaq of the canal and then around the side of the wheel holse that overhangs the ledge. He was standing on a very smaill plank when he lost his balance and fell head- long into the gorge, landing on the rocks forty feet below. 8ix hours after high water It ia iow tide, which 1s followed by %ood tide.

Perilous Position With Ropes back to the top of the cliff without assistance. A mneighbor who saw Mr. Vaudrey fall, quickly summoned help. ‘William Booth, an employe of the miil, climbed down to where Mr. Vaudrey was and fastened a rope around his rope. Wiith this several yardmen pulled him’up to the top of the ledge. Mr. Vaudrey was not seriously hurt, receiving only a cut over one of his eves and a general shaking up. He was able to walk to his home on La- fayette street. Where Mr. Vaudrey had his fall is the spot' made historical by the leap of Uncas, the Mohegan chieftain, in his pursuit of Miantonomoh, his de- feated enemy, in one of the Indian battles In the early history of Nor- wich. The bottom of the deep and wide chasm below the dam and under the falls is fllled with immense bould- ers, with many sharp and projecting points which rendered his fall more hazardous and make his fortunate es- cape from serious injury all the more remarkable.

In the last campaign T was most loyally supported, and for that expression of political considera- tion 1 shall ever remain grateful. At the solicitation of thousahds of demo- crats residing in the district, and other friends who supported me in my form- er campaign, I feel that the time has arrived for me to announce myself as a candidate. In asking for recognition as a can- didate for congress from the second district, I base my request upon the following well-known facts: For more than half a century the third——now second—aistrict has never been represented by a democrat. Two vears ago I was prevailed upon to take the nomination, owing to the fact that it was considered a forlorn hope with no possibility of success. 1 believed it was a duty I owed my party to respond to their call and ac- cepted the nomination, went into the battle to win and came very near do- ing so, as you are well aware, my competitor having only a majority of 78 votes, whereas formerly the repub- lican candidate received a majority of from 3,500 to 6,000 votes While it is a fact that the elective committes at Washington decided the contest in favor of my republican op- ponent, I am not alone in my belief that it was practically a democratic victory While I am not egotistical enough to believe that I am the only democrat in the district who is deserving of the nomination, still it 18 my firm-be- lief that, with the experience I gain- ed two years ago, I can go forward, if nominated, and defeat any candidate the republicane can select to oppose me. He renews his state legislative ex- perience and promises if nominated to carry the campaign into the ranks of the enemy in a manner that will se- cure ultimate success, both for himself und the honorable gentleman who be- comes higtassociate on the democratic ticket DISCHARGES RECEIVED AT THAMES NAVAL STATION. Number of Employes Have Been Stricken from the Rolls. For several years the Thames river naval station has been officially desig- nated as a coaling depot, and this is to be practically abandoned. In addition to the force of men discharged lagt week, orders were received for the dis- charge of Henry S. Lawrence, classed as foreman laborer, who has been em- pleyed at the station for 3 Syears and most of the time in a clerical capacity, sud whose familiarity with the station was of advantage to the changing commandants. The order also dis- | charges Watchman Ralph M, Bailey and Engine Tender Sherwood M. Hills, who have been at the station many years. This leaves the property in charge of a boatswain as commandan’. and two marines as guardsmen. Therefore, while the naval station on the Thames is not officially abandoned, it is of no benefit to New Lonion, Norwich or Grbton in its present status. There is opportunity in this case to test the persuasive strength of the Boards of Trade and Business Men's associations of New London and Norwich. PROGRESSIVE CLUB OUTING. Chowder Served and Games Enjoyed by Hopkins & Allen Employes. Saturday afternoon the Hopkins & Allen Progressive club held an outing at Haack's farm, Oakdale. The feature of the day was the ball game, in which William Eiliott made one single, three two baggers and two home runs out of five times at bat. Potter also figured as a fielder and McVeigh, pitcher, was so fast that he had to be replaced with another man. Louis Haack prepared a fine chowder to which all sat down after the game. After the chowder, other sporting events took place. Fred Smith won the first prize in the shoot- ing contest and Iver Hamilton took the second prize. The booby prize was awarded William Elliott. The president of the club, Thomas Chad- wick, presented the prizes as follows: IMirst prize, a pipe; second prize, a silver matchbox; booby prize, a pack of cards. Running matches ended the day's outing and were as follows: 50 vard dash, Chadwick and Fields, win- ner Chadwick; 50 yard dash, Smith and Chadwick, winner Smith., Alva K.

Fifteen Cities and Towns Have Rep- resentatives at New Haven Meetin~ —Civil Engineer Pitcher from Here. At the request of Mayor Murphy, City Engineer George E. Pitcher rep resented the city at a session of city officials in New Haven Monday to start & movement for better roads. Mayor Dunn of Willimantic was also present, 16 _cities and towns being represented. It was suggested that a permanent organization be formed by the dele- gates present to further the matter of securing a good pavement in all parts of the state. This suggestion was adopted and it was voted to form a permanent or- ganization. City Engineer Ford of New Haven, City Egnieer A. H. Terry of Bridgeport and C Engineer R. F Mitchell of Willimantic were appoint- ed a committee to report on officers. This committee reported at the after- noon session and an organization was perfected under the name Public Offi- cials’ Road Improvement association. W. Scott Eames, director of public works in New Haven, was made presi- dent. Any official connected with highway work is entitied to become a member. City Engineer Ford of New Haven read a paper at the meeting giving statistics of team and auto traffic at different points in New Haven. He reduced his statistics to the percentage of auto traffic at each point. Mr. Ford, city engineer-elect, called attention to the fact that in all the Connecticut cities the traffic had in- creased enormously in recent years, and he gave the figures taken recently in the city of New Haven, explaining the system which had been undertaken there. He said that today auto traf- fic in some streets is 79 per cent. greater than it was 15 years ago. He suggested an agreement on some meth- od of accounting and some system of taking traffic statistics. He referred to the New York and Massachusetts systems and the differences between them, and stated that i the Connect! cut cities could be Induced to co- operate and each take statistics of trafic on Saturdaye and later study tia traffic statistics for the wear and tear on the different kinds of pave tents,” valuable lnformation might be secured. He stated that interchange In cost data I8 very valuable, as is data re- garding the cost of cleaning, and that an agreement ought to be reached as to what s a falr cost for cleaning a square vard of pavement. Heavier trucks may yet be used upon the streete, perhaps even trains, each en- gine hauling two or three loaded cars some other ty, for instance. Y, In this case paying probiems will be greatly increased. ~ After the business meeting the dele- gation took lunch at the Unien league and later toured the city in automo- biles, inspecting the various kinds of pavements In use there. This took up a large part of the afternoon, as the visitors were shown- over about 30 miles of 3 It is proposed to hold three or four meetings a year in different cities of the state. The topics for discussion Monday show the idea of the organization. They are: . 1—The advisability of an inter- change of cost data on road construc- tion and maintenance, based on a uni- form method of accounting, and cost per square yard for original conmstruc- tion, maintenance and cleaning. 2—The taking of traffic statistics at uniform radial distances from the city hall or central portion of each city, commencing on the main arteries two or three miles out, and then at eacn half mile point on the same roadways working toward the center, the statis- tics to be taken and classifled on stan- dard sheets to be adopted after con- sultation of the road officials. 3—To consider whether it is desira- ble or necessary to increase the depth and strength of the foundation of all pavements to meet the ten-ton or larger auto trucks which are already here, and which will rapidly increase in number and possibly in weight dur- ing the next few year 4—To consider whether it is practi- cable or advisable to urge the adop- tion of a standard of wheel or body width for autor trucks in order that the width between curbs on curbed streets can be properly determined, and especially whether on the outlying streets the hardened roadways should not be increased in width in order that fast moving vehicles can meat and pass with greater safety, withont en- croaching on the softer roadway shoulders, and if considered advisable to take action upon this matter, how the improvements can best be brougnt about. Whether through consultation with automobile manufacturers or as- soclations or by legislative action. 5—Whether it is advisable to. pro- hibit or regulate the use of chains on auto tires. Kimberly and Howard ave- nues were put in first class condition last year at an expense of over $8,000, and the injury to these two streets during the wet fall and rainy spring seasons from chains on @utos was very great. A great many of these were out of {own cars passing between New York and Boston. ONE MORE DAY FOR Y. M. C. A. CAMPERS. Boys Will be Home from Fishers sl and Wednesday—Visit from New York Campers. General Secretary F. R. Starkey spent the week end at the Y. M. C. A. camp at Fishers Island and found the boys all well and enjoying to the full the delights of outdoor life. As it rained practically all day Sunday, the boys spent much of the time under cover. In the morning, however, a small island on which gulis’ nests just off the eastern end of Fishers Island was visited and many nests were found. In some there were young birds and in others eggs, a number of which were secured. In the main tent Sunday evening Mr. Starkey conducted a service and spoke to the boys upon bank accounts. He mentioned the neceseity ofthrift in money matters and likened our physical, mental and moral beings to bank.accounts. The school life is for the storing away of funds in our mind. Athletics and camp life add to our physical fund, but the most important of all is the storing away of good traits of character. There was singing by the boys and mandolfn selections were given by Physical Director A. C. Pease. Saturday evening a vaudeville en- tertainment was given by the boys STATION EQUIPMENT ARRIVES. —_—— Large Condenser Being Removed from Flat Car—Testing Out New. Turbine at Schenectady. The demand for electrical power had increased so in the past year that the Norwich Gas and Electrical company has found it necessary to increase the capacity of their plant. As previously told, a large jturbine and generator with equipmen® has been ordered from the General Electric company at Schenectady, N. Y. A part of the or- der, consisting of the condenser and minor equipment, arrived a few days ago and is being removed from the flat car into the company’s plant on North Main street. The condenser is very large and heavy and had to be ship- ped in four sections, which complete- ly filled a flat car. A part of the door casing and some of the brick work had to be removed to permit the machinery to pass through the door. The condenser will contain over 5200 feet of brass tubing, through which the steam will pass to be condensed before re-entering the boiler. The ce- ment foundation for the turbine is nearly completed and Is situated near the center of the generating room. The new generator will be three times the size of the largest in the pgwer house at present, the weight of tggeneraxor and turbine, not includ- ing the condenser, being 108,300 pounds and its power 2,000 k.w. Last year new 750 k.w. turbine was Instalied ‘and since then has car- ried most of the load, day and night. There are two smaller generators in the plant, consisting of a 400 k.w. tur- bine, and a 240 k.w. reciprocating en- gine generato The 240 k.w. genera- tor has not been run for some time, The new turbine has been set up in the trial rooms of the General Elec- tric company at. Schenectady and is being tried out. It will arrive in this city about the middle of August and will be set up immediately in the power house. The company expects that it will be put In operation be- fore October 1 BEFORE SANTIAGO 14 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK. Many of Returned Soldiers Cared For in Connecticut Hospitals. This week recalls the surrender of Santlago de Cuba, 14 years ago. Al- though the actual operations around Santlago began on June 23, 1898, when General Henry W. Lawton's division landed at Dalquiri, about 18 miles east of Santiago the formal surrender of the city did not take place until about a month later, July 4, when General Torral, the Spanish commander, stip- ulated that the garrison of about 12,- 000 men be given transportation back to Spain with the honors of war at the expense of the United States.

(Special to The Bulletin.) Mrs. John Richardson, 48, of South ‘Willington, was found drowned in the pond there Monday evening about 7.30 o’clock; a verdict of suicide was given by Dr. F, B. Converse, deputy cor- oner, who was called to view the body. Mrs. Richardson was missing from her home this morning, leaving a note which said that her body would be found in the pond. At first not much attention was paid to her absence and the note because she had left similar notes on other occasions, but when she did not return, searching parties started to drag the pond and her body was recovered in about 11 feet of water next to the stonework of the day. It was learned that her 11-year- id son saw his mother in the pond about 8.30 in the morning. She had wawed out a considerable distance from the shore. but she drove him away when he spoke to her It is sup- posed that she drowned herself soon afterwards In this spot and that the body floated down to the dam Mrs. Richardson was a native of Canada. She is survived by her hus- band, four sons and a daughter, all residents of South Willington. Her husband is a spool turner employed in the mill of G. Hall and company.
