E. church and that the society would receive a portion of the profits, to be devoted to repairing the church furnace and the parsonage.

W. B, Walden of Uncasville, one of the trustees of the church, declired that no one had any business to So- dcit funds for purposes which the trustees had not authorized. .| On East Lyme Trolley Construction.

Horss With Rider Fell from Mountain Pathway on the Stage. A thrill not on the bill was added to the production of The Behomian Girl at the Davis Broadway theater Friday evening for the crowd that packed the house to the roof. In the opening scene one of the Ive horses used in the play made too short a turn in as- cending the mountain pathway which is a part of the stage setting, got his forefeet tangled in the scemery and then toppled oyer and dropped to the stage with. his rider, a distance of about five feet. Fortunately nelther man nor horse wag hurt, but the scene ended then, as the curtain was rung down to clear up the tangle. The company was the Aborn Opera company, with a full troupe for the production, and the Tzigani Whirl- winds, Hassans' Arab acrobats, who sent the house into a thunder of ap- plause for their marvelous work. The prelty stage settings were well worked out ,and the old favorite songs such as I Dreamt That I Dwelt in Marble Halls, Heart Bowed Down and Then Youll Remember Me were in capable hands as rendered by Blanche Morrison, James Stevens and Roy Pilcher respectively. 2 With an audience not over-enthusi- astic, the singing of James Stevens was given well deserved recognition and Joseph Florlan was pleasin. In the title role Blanche Morrison’s num- bers exhibited her sweet voice to good effect, and Claudfa’ Albright was well cast as theyypsy queen. SECOND REGIMENT WON STATE RIFLE MATCH.

The street is closed TOWN BALLOT BOXES STILL IN' WASHINGTON New London and Windham County Towns May Need New Ones. With election 8o close at hand, con- siderable wonder is being expressed that the ballot boxes of the towns of New London and Windham counties which were.sent to Washington sev- eral months ago in the contested elec- tion of Congressman Edwin W. Hig- | gins and Raymond J. Jodoin, have not been returned to the town clerks! Not only have they not been returned but no steps have been taken, so far as is known, that would indicate that they would be on hand for the fall election. . In fact, it is thought that they will never be returned and that to the ‘election costs of the towns this fall will be added the cost of new bal- lot boxes. Attorney Warren B. Burrows, who was notary public, was given custody of the boxes, acting as agent for the congressional contested election com- mittee pending the recount, in reply to the question whether he knew*® the vote receptacles would be available for the coming elections, said that he had no idea. Mr. Burrows has writ- ten to Congressman Henry M. Goldfo- gle, chairman of contested elections committee No. 3, which had charge of the recount of the ballots in the Hig- gins-Jodoin contest to ascertain if the Doxes could be secured and returned to their respective places. Mr. Gold- fogle's answer will be awaited with in- terest by the town clerks of the two counties. DRAGGED OFF TRACK. Michael Sullivan Saves a Man’s at Thamesville.

For a week now Horace Garnier, 18 years old, but remarkably small for his age, has been missing from his home in Wauregan without leaving a trace of where he has wone. On Friday his mother, Mrs. Edward Gar- nier, was in this city in the hope that she might find out something about him and give publicity to the fact of his disappearance. Young Garnier for some time has shown a longing to get away to some in a hotel and Mrs. Garnier expects | that is what she may find him doing | if she succeeds in locating him. He has frequently sent answers to adver- tisements in ‘the newspapers and re- ceived replies. It is this circumstance which gives his an:fious parents their only hint of what he may have done, as three boys and a girl who know im have told Mrs. Garnier that Hor- ace got a letter from a hotel in Read- ville last Friday. But inquiry there and at otherplaces hed not located m. Last Saturday he told his mother that he wanted to go to the moving picture show at Danielson, got a few pennies from her and took the 1 o'clock trolley from Wauregan towards, Danielson. Since then she has not seen him, but has been told that he was seen to leave Danielson that aft- ernoon by the § o'clock trolley to- towards Boston. Young Garnier is -particularly well known in his home village of Wau- regan as he has been on the baseball grounds through the summer, selling peanuts, soft drinks and other refresh- ments that the fans favor. Although 18 years old, he is only 4 feet 2 inches tall and weighs 92 pounds. He wore a gray suit, with knickerbockers, when he went away. He is the second child in the family, having a sister, who is older and married, and a brother who s younger. Incidents In Society.

Mr. Sullivan, who happened to be near and saw the man fall, pulled him from the tracks in time to prevent the train from crushing him. He was not struck by the train, but recelved a bad injury on his knee. The man’s name is Ockery and he resides on_Hinckley street, Laurel Hill.

Association Planning to Get to Work Again—Cleaner Streets Wanted.

Johnson has called a com- mittee meeting for Monday evening at his home on Union street One of the things which it is prob- able will be taken up will be an ef- fort to have the city streets kept cleaner.
